Steel tube.

Many people have seen this kind of thing with a fairly high appearance rate in Lizhuang, and it has applications on various devices. But how this thing was made, no one knows.

There are two kinds of steel pipes, one is with a seam, the steel strip is heated and wound into a tube, and then the gap is welded. This process requires a fire-worshipper to handle the weld.

The other is a seamless steel pipe, which is a high-temperature steel rod that is hard extruded into a pipe under the action of mechanical force.

The former can make quite a long one at a time, while the latter cannot. There are two processes in Lizhuang, in an environment where you don't need to care about pressure, you can use ordinary steel pipes, and in high-pressure scenarios, you need seamless steel pipes.

And with the use of these steel pipes, there are also a variety of standard parts: elbows, tees, plugs, and wire equipment, which have been standardized in Lizhuang, and anyone who has been trained can use these things proficiently.

However, not on the Royal Foundry side.

The Royal Foundry didn't know what standards were, and they didn't know what seamless and seammy was, because these were all Gaoli's top secrets, and no one taught them. What's even more discouraging is that they secretly bought a steel pipe from Pingyang City, only to find that they couldn't understand how this thing was made.

Because to build a steel pipe, you need the assistance of large machinery, and you need to beat it purely by manpower, which is simply ......

As a result, the Foundry Bureau actually used manpower to hammer out a steel pipe.

Not to mention the shape, although there is no difference in principle, it is too ugly after all. As long as the problem of the pipes is not solved, any heating is a dream.

When the emperor saw this crooked steel pipe that looked like a yam, his first reaction was to go to Lizhuang to buy it!

That's right, compared to face, it is still the most important thing to be warm.

In this round, Gao Li won.

Gao Li is actually very happy, as long as he doesn't fight, business wars will never get tired of playing. However, he rejoiced too soon.

He didn't realize that a real crisis was coming.

It was a sunny morning, and there were still a few days to go before the New Year, and the whole city of Yannan was unprecedentedly busy, with commodity trading at its peak, and the joy of the festival was everywhere. But at this time, Gao Li had no time to take care of it, and now he was in the underground maze below Yannan City. Ling Long and El Ruo followed him, Gao Li's expression solemn.

"How many are these?" asked Gao Li to Yaya.

"What has been found is the third. Yaya said.

In front of Gao Li's eyes, there was a corpse, made of flesh, rock, and metal. The corpse was put together in a seemingly chaotic way of prevention, but it was capable of bursting with great power.

Of course, if it's just a monster, it's not worth both Gao Li and Ling Long to come here.

"Found it!" Mi flew out from behind the monster and landed in front of Gao Li, wearing rubber gloves and holding a golden ball in her hand.

"Three monsters, three golden balls. Gao Li looked at Ling Long.

Ling Long raised his hand and pointed at it, and the golden ball hung in the air, and the dirt on it disappeared. The golden ball fell into Ling Long's hand, Ling Long closed his eyes and felt it, and then said, "This golden ball comes from a certain celestial, but this celestial's consciousness has been shattered. It stands to reason that such a golden ball should not be able to resurrect the celestials, it will slowly deplete the true qi inside, and then it will shatter on its own. But I don't know what's going on, someone forcibly activated the golden ball before it shattered, so that it started the resurrection process, and as a result, it absorbed the surrounding creatures, rocks, dirt and metal on its own, formed a body, and fell into a manic state. ”

"Interesting. Gao Li said, "Could it be your sister?"

Ling Long shook his head and said, "No, if she did it, I would know, but inside this golden ball is unfamiliar information." ”

Gao Li said: "Dog." ”

Yaya said: "Hey!"

Gao Li said: "Immediately investigate the surroundings, let the soldiers go, and search the entire underground labyrinth, don't let go of anything." If it weren't for the fact that this place was too big, I should have plugged this mouse hole. ”

Yaya said: "Don't worry, no one will try to escape my nose." ”

"Well, let me do it. "This underground labyrinth is too big, and if someone wants to play peek-a-boo with you, you won't be able to find it." I'll fill this place with some small things, maybe it will be easier. ”

When Gao Li heard this, he said: "It's okay, Yaya, then you have been paying more attention to the ground recently, and see if there are any noteworthy goods from the south to the north." ”

Yaya said: "Don't worry!"

Al Ruo threw out an evil seed, which fell to the ground, quickly took root and sprouted, absorbed the nutrients from the ground, blossomed, and then many seeds jumped out of the bush, flew not far away, fell to the ground, and continued to take root and sprout. The flowers that have lost their seeds swayed slowly in the darkness with a glow of night.

"This is a small flower that I have cultivated, it doesn't run around like ordinary evils, it likes to take root in one place, it can survive with soil nourishment and true qi, and most importantly, it can help me quickly fill the entire underground space. ”

Since El Ruo came to Yannan City, she did not occupy the position of jellyfish, but took the initiative to ask to run to raise flowers.

According to her, flowers are reassuring.

There is a huge garden farm outside Yannan City, and the main source of the rose perfume in Yannan City is here. Under her careful cultivation, the fragrance of these roses is extremely strong, even not weaker than the roses that Gao Li had seen in his previous life.

It takes time for flowers to occupy the entire underground labyrinth, and Gao Li doesn't need to wait here. When he first arrived at the palace, he saw an unexpected person waiting for him here.

Shiller.

Shi Lei brought the news of the celestial people before, and then disappeared. Now that he suddenly appeared, Gao Li always felt that this person would not bring any good news.

"I brought good news, and bad news. Shi Lei said.

Really!

"Let's start with the good news. Gao Li went back to his desk and sat down, he had been walking since he got up in the morning this day, and he had been walking for almost a whole day, and he was so tired that his feet and neck hurt.

"The Borderstrip has complied with your request, and they'll wait for the next rift to open and bring you a prototype of the Rift Generator. At the same time, he wants me to tell you that even they only know how to use it, and they don't know why it can open the cracks. And this prototype can't travel through time and space, but can only teleport over short distances. Shi Lei said.

"Not bad, either. Gao Li nodded, although teleportation is not unusual, they used teleportation to complete the feat of stealing families before, but now that there is a machine to do it, then maybe they can get some inspiration from it.

"And then there's the bad news, the traitors planted in the border area by the countries that are hostile to us have secretly activated the teleporter. I don't know how many of them came, but what is certain is that not only did they come, but their purpose was very clear, which was to destroy everyone. ”

"Take advantage of annihilation?" Gao Li asked.

"Yes. Shi Lei said.

"Then I have a question, isn't it difficult for the celestials to come over?" Gao Li asked.

"Actually, you can come over. Otherwise, how did the first group of celestials come to be? It's just that after coming to this world, their bodies will suffer greatly. The first celestial beings who landed in this world immediately committed suicide and were reborn. Shi Lei said, "But this time, it is not a celestial person, but a monkey demon from this world." They were brought there in the early years, and because the time was not equal, they only spent a few decades there. ”

Gao Li asked, "They are originally people from this world, and they will even help the people of the Heavenly and Human Realms to destroy the people of this world?"

Shi Lei said: "After all, it is a monkey demon and is considered a second-class life. If he wants to gain a foothold in that new world, he naturally has to be more ruthless to show that he is different from other monkey demons. ”

Gao Li smiled and said, "So that's the case, I understand, it's all the same." ”

Shi Lei nodded and said, "It's all the same." ”

Gao Li suddenly remembered and asked, "I found some mutated creatures under Yannan City, and these creatures have golden balls. My wife said that it was originally a golden ball that could not be reborn, but it was forcibly activated by someone, so it arbitrarily absorbed the surrounding matter to form a body. Do you have any clue?"

Shi Lei said: "She said something wrong, not only the golden ball that cannot be reborn, even if it is a normal golden ball, it can also be activated by the chaos command." The golden orb activated by the chaos command, the internal consciousness is no longer complete, and it is possible to combine into any form of life. ”

Gao Li asked, "Then will there be any harm?"

Shi Lei said: "If it can be detected early, the harm is not great, but if it is not found in time enough, then it is very likely to lead to ......."

Rumble!

The sudden earthquake interrupted the two, and Gao Li backhanded the candle cannon on the ground and rushed out of the window. In the distance, on a mountain, a giant made of rocks is slowly taking shape. This giant looks even bigger than the immeasurable beast! The rocks all over its body swim up like liquid, constantly making its body bigger!

"This is the consequence of not being detected in time, and the out-of-control golden ball will draw everything around it without restriction to form the body. Shi Lei said.

"Is it really unlimited?" Gao Li said as he activated the candle cannon.

"Whether it's really unlimited, I don't know, because I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but according to the description of the celestials, the largest Chaos Command creature they observed during the experiment is bigger than your Yannan City. ”

"So, how can you kill it?" asked Gao Li.

"I don't know. Shi Lei said, "I'm not a real celestial either, these are what I saw by myself reading books." ”

Case.

Candle cannon, fire!

The muzzle of the cannon fired a huge ball of true light, and the ball of light flew into the distance, hitting the chaotic creature, and in an instant, the ball of light blew off half of the creature's shoulder.

But that's all, the liquefied rock continued to flow, and in the blink of an eye, its body was replenished again, and even became larger!

"Is it good to annihilate?" asked Gao Li.

"From what I know, annihilation is only good for flesh, not for rocks. Shi Lei said.

Well, that's troublesome.

Just thinking about it, I saw a huge golden ball of light falling from the sky and smashing into the chaos creature! A blow completely crushed the chaos creature, and then, the golden lion stood on top of the ruins all over the ground, with a puzzled expression, and asked, "What is this?"
