Chapter 63: Deception and Stealing Fame
Early in the morning, the Tingchao Pavilion was already overcrowded.
The people were surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside, and even on the railings outside, there were many figures.
"Have you heard, today I heard that the little gentleman of Chao Pavilion should talk about the Monkey King making trouble in the Heavenly Palace, oops, I've been waiting for a few days, it's really torturous!"
"Yes, I said that the Jade Emperor is really stingy, our great sage is so capable, he only sealed a small Bi Ma Wen, isn't this a waste of people!"
"I don't know how Boss Li of the Chao Pavilion came up with it, and he actually came up with such a wonderful thing, I originally saw that the business was getting bleaker and bleaker, but I didn't expect it to be revitalized all of a sudden, the story is naturally a first-class story, but this tea and pastry are also more expensive!"
In the crowd, many people were talking about the plot of the previous days, and some people were complaining about listening to the drinks in Chaoge.
"And voila! Mr. Little is here! ”
I don't know who shouted, but I saw a child who looked like a student appeared on the high platform, and for a while, the scene was boiling, cheering, and roaring endlessly.
Looking at the enthusiastic audience below, Ma Jun took a deep breath.
It's been a while since he came here to tell stories, and he still remembers Chu Yang's words when he first came over.
Just think of it as telling a story to the little brother at home, and you can face any situation without selfish distractions.
At first, he was also trembling, and when he talked about "Journey to the West", he would stumble a few times from time to time, but the story was really exciting, and people didn't pay too much attention to these details.
After he performed several times in a row, he faintly had his own feelings, and felt that everything seemed to be suddenly clear, whether it was for the tone, performance, or even the rhythm, he became more comfortable.
Today, according to the old rules, before telling the story, he also demonstrates a small scientific experiment in public.
This was agreed upon by Chu Yang and Li Siyuan earlier.
Storytelling can certainly bring a good income, but Chu Yang is already the richest man, how can he take a fancy to these.
The reason why he agreed to Li Siyuan's storytelling was that in addition to repaying some favors, Chu Yang also had his own considerations.
If you want to popularize your own knowledge among the people, it is not enough to rely on recruiting students, if you can perform some small experiments related to mathematics, physics, chemistry, and even biology in some public occasions from time to time to arouse the interest of the people, it may have the effect of moisturizing things silently.
So, Chu Yang asked the disciples to come over in turns, and every time before telling a story, he would sell a pass and make an experiment.
For this matter, the people were impatient at the beginning, but gradually accepted it later.
After all, in the whole of Surabaya, only here can you hear that unique story, as for this "trick" in front of it, it should be purely for fun.
Ma Jun took out the prop for today's performance from his baggage, which was a sealed glass bottle with a straw stuck in it.
In the glass bottle, already filled with liquid, crystal clear, showing a little halo in the light.
"Oh my God! This...... This turned out to be a glass cup! I didn't expect Mr. Xiao to even take out this thing this time, it seems that today's experiment is amazing! ”
Someone in the crowd exclaimed, and everyone was shocked to find that the transparent bottle in the little boy's hand was actually made of the same material as the incomparably precious glass cup in Yuelaixuan a few days ago.
At this point, the look in their eyes when they looked at the little boy became complicated.
In the end, it is our Chu Xiancai's student, just looking at this line, who is comparable in this Surabaya?
In the past few days, they have naturally heard some gossip news between Chu Yang and Bai Yuan, the county guard of Surabaya County, as the people who have witnessed the development of Chu Yang all the way, they have no good impression of the clan children like Bai Yuan, and now that Chu Yang's disciples come out to do things, they naturally want to support it.
Ma Jun paused, picked up the bottle and said to everyone:
"It is said that Hongmeng opened at the beginning, Pangu opened the world, the clear one rose, the turbid one sank, and the heaven and earth world have been in their place since then......"
Hearing Ma Jun's words, everyone present also nodded.
After listening to the story of "Journey to the West", people have accepted the fact that Pangu opened the world and Nuwa made stones to make up for the sky.
Although these things sound bizarre, everyone feels that there is some truth in them, especially for the thunder male and electric mother who controls the celestial phenomena, and the dragon king of the four seas who is clothed with rain is the most interested.
"But have you ever thought about what is in the breath between you and me?"
After a brief opening, Ma Jun directly threw out today's puzzle.
"Huh! That's right, this gas can't be seen, can't be touched, something that does actually exist, otherwise we won't suffocate to death! ”
"It's just that there is something in this breath, why is there still something in it? Isn't it colorless and odorless? ”
"Mr. Xiao's question today is so weird, don't sell it, tell us quickly!"
People frowned, it was clear that the question was beyond their understanding, breathing was an innate instinct, and no one had ever paid attention to it.
"Don't worry, since I'm so sure, naturally there is something I can get my hands on to prove it."
As he spoke, Ma Jun raised the bottle and blew a mouthful of air into the straw in front of everyone.
The next moment, the audience burst into exclamations.
"It's changed! Look, there's a discolored bottle inside! ”
How so!
People looked at the stage in shock, and the bottles that were originally in Ma Jun's hands had all turned cloudy white.
Something like paste, just floats on it.
"Everyone, please see, this is a substance contained in the qi in front of us, and I just used some means to make it manifest."
Ma Jun shook the bottle in his hand at the people with a smile on his face, and couldn't help but remember the frightened look he had when he first saw this experiment.
"As for what's in it, please let me sell it first, and we'll see you next time."
After completing the chemical test of carbon dioxide and lime water, Ma Jun quickly cleaned up the table and prepared to start today's storytelling session.
The people below are still puzzled, but they are not so enthusiastic about the rest of the story.
After all, qi is a thing that is related to everyone's life, and when they suddenly heard that there is something in it that they don't know, everyone is naturally unable to let go.
At this time, even Li Siyuan in the box on the second floor was dumbfounded, he didn't expect that Chu Xiancai was actually so knowledgeable, maybe only such a character would have such a wonderful idea.
At this moment, a sneering voice suddenly came from the crowd.
"What kind of ability do I still have as Chu Yang, it turns out that he is just a person who deceives the world and steals his name! What else is Chu Xiancai? Phew! ”
With this voice, I saw several figures dressed in brown walking in from outside, with a look of amusement on their faces.
