Chapter 17: Otherworldly Scalping Begins
The next day, that is, on the morning of August 6, Mo Mo told his family that he wanted to sign up for a group to go to Greentown to play for a few days, but without waiting for his family's consent, he sneaked away directly while his parents were not paying attention, leaving a note on the table, explaining the situation, saying that he would come back in a few days.
Mo Mo knew that his parents absolutely did not approve of him running to Greentown to play as a child, even if it was only a few tens of kilometers away.
Mo Mo knew that his parents would not agree, so he could only cut it first and then make up, and at most he would come back and be beaten, but he was helpless and had no choice.
When Mo Mo's parents saw the note, they were indeed very angry and left without saying a word, just for fear that they would not agree, but at the same time, they were also a little worried about their son, who couldn't be contacted when he went out, and he didn't even have a mobile phone.
"Husband, look at it! This guy is even more naughty when he is rich, and he actually runs to Greentown alone, and he is angry with me! What if I am deceived!" Ning Lanxin pinched the note, her brows were tightly locked, and she was anxious, wandering in the house.
"Hey, I didn't expect that I wasn't so willful before, and now it's useless to be angry, and people are gone. Mo Yao took a puff of cigarette, extinguished the cigarette butt and threw it away, and said,
"However, don't worry too much about him, he's not too young, he's twelve years old, this guy went to Greentown last time, he slipped away, he knows the way better than me! ”
Mo Wanqing sat aside, listening to her parents angry, and didn't dare to say anything, only to know that her younger brother ran away alone, I really admired him, if it was herself, she wouldn't dare to run to Greentown to play alone, even if she wanted to go.
……
Tianling Continent, it was already afternoon here, Mo Mo had just come out of the room he had left last time, turned around, and found that Shi Wu's family was not at home, so he simply raised his cheeks and sat on the threshold, clearing up the questions he had been wondering about.
"System, I have a question, when I cross, why can't I carry items outside my body, I have to put them in the space, so what's the matter with the clothes on my body, and the body is also considered an item, right?"
The system quickly explained: "The host crossing needs spiritual energy as a guide, and the crossing rules recognize the physical body covered by the blood, as for the clothes, it is within the coverage of your blood, if it contains a large amount of metal or heavy objects outside the body, the crossing may cause an accident, please don't try it! Also, the space rules ......"
The system explained like Tang Seng for a few minutes, and Mo Mo's mind was confused, so he simply interrupted it and continued: "Stop, Sister Ni, your explanation is too far-fetched! Forget it, what Lao Tzu doesn't understand, I'm too lazy to pursue this bullshit space rule." ”
Mo Mo went back to the house, took out the items in the space, and waited for about half an hour before seeing Shi Wu come back.
Shi Wu saw Mo Mo and looked surprised: "Xiaomo, you're here! Have you been waiting for a long time? I just came back from the field." ”
"Just came over for a while, Uncle Wu, do you want to plant things too?" Mo Mo looked at Shi Wu holding a rusty iron tool, and the iron tool was still stained with some mud, so he asked.
"Growing some wheat as a staple food is not enough to hunt. We just came back from hunting the day before yesterday, and the harvest was not as much as last time, sometimes good and sometimes bad. ”
"Oh, I see!"
Mo Mo pulled Shi Wu into the room, pointed to the items on the bed and said, "Uncle Wu, look at it, are these things valuable?"
"Tsk, this is a crystal mirror, isn't it? smooth and bright, much better than the copper mirror at home, the copper mirror at my house is too distorted, and it cost a hundred copper coins.
The crystal mirrors in the Treasure Pavilion store in Qingzhou City are not so bright, the flatness is much worse, and it seems to be the same distortion, I only know that those good copper mirrors are very expensive, but I don't know the specific price. Shi Wu picked up a mirror, looked at himself in the mirror, and admired in surprise.
"This is a knife, right, why is it so bright?" Shi Wu put down the mirror, picked up the folding knife that Mo Mo opened, and looked at it carefully, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that it was magical, it could be folded, the knife surface was as smooth as a mirror, and the production was exquisite.
"The material in our hometown is called stainless steel, which can be rust-resistant, you can try the sharpness, and the wire can still be cut off. Mo Mo looked at Shi Wu stunned, and explained with a smile.
Mo Mo bought stainless steel folding knives, 20 pieces each, stalls, cutting material is 440C martensitic stainless steel, hardness of 58HRC (Rockwell hardness), hardness is about three times that of ordinary carbon steel (household building steel bar Q235B), six times that of pure iron.
Its yield strength is about twice that of ordinary carbon steel.
The higher the strength of the material, the worse its toughness and plasticity correspondingly, but as a tool, the toughness of 440C is sufficient.
Shi Wu picked up a knife and tried to cut down the wooden plank, it was indeed a common sword that was much sharper, and the cut of the wood was very smooth.
"Xiaomo, this knife should reach the level of a treasure knife, it is very sharp, the workmanship is very exquisite, it can be folded, it can also be rust-proof like you said, but it is smaller, but it is not a problem to sell it at a good price, those rich people like it very much." Shi Wu closed the knife, picked up another item, felt very surprised, shook his head and said,
"I don't know what this is?"
For the watch, Mo Mo explained for a long time, and Shi Wu understood its function, and the more he understood, the more shocked he became.
Mo Mo only understood this world from Shi Wu's mouth, the way of keeping time is very simple, Qingzhou City is still in the hourglass way of keeping time, as for the countryside, it is to watch the position of the sun to estimate the time, where is there any timekeeper.
Shi Wu looked at the valuables on the head of the bed, touched the scum, pondered, and said, "These things are very precious, they can't be sold for much in the town, so they can be taken to Qingzhou City."
We originally planned to go to Qingzhou City in the next two days, sell some animal skins and herbs, and buy some daily necessities by the way, which are of good quality and low price. ”
"Qingzhou is far away, how long will it take to get there?" Mo Mo had read the map from the map of Luoyun Country, and knew that the closest city to them was Qingzhou City, the scale of the map was too rough, but it was really unclear how far it was, and he didn't know how long it would take and how long he could get there.
Shi Wu replied: "There are 600 miles of land, and it will take two or three hours to ride a white horse.
We only have a white horse, and there are many people who go to the beast cart, and the Qingyun beast is not fast, and it can run about eighty or ninety miles in an hour, plus a break in the middle, it takes a day and a night. ”
The Qingyun Beast that Shi Wu said is actually similar in appearance to the earth's ox, but it is more vigorous and powerful, fast running, and has good endurance. The difference may be that the Qingyun Beast's hair is several inches long, and it is mainly blue-brown with a hint of white.
At least the White Horse?
It should be the kind of horse that Mo Mo rode last time, with white hair like snow all over his body, a body height of nearly two meters, big eyes, a high head and neck, and strong limbs.
When its neck is raised, it is mighty, and its coat is as white as snow, and its luster is beautiful, and its appearance is more handsome and beautiful.
Mo Mo couldn't imagine that this kind of horse could run so fast, and it was estimated that the maximum speed could reach seventy kilometers per hour, and if the best horse sprinted at a speed of eighty or ninety kilometers per hour, the horses on the earth would be slightly inferior in comparison.
Mo Mo thought that this kind of horse should be very delicate, and asked, "Is the horse very expensive?"
Shi Wu said with a smile: "The general variety of 3 gold coins a horse, the main thing is to feed the feed, more than a few adults to eat, it is not easy to raise, a year of maintenance is less and you have to get one or two gold coins, ordinary people will not buy it, our village raises a horse, just for emergency use." ”
Mo Mo secretly calculated, this white horse is really not easy to raise.
The two discussed that they would leave tomorrow morning, and Shi Wu would also go out to arrange tomorrow's itinerary.
