Chapter 105: Big Cauldron and Small Stove
Walking out of the room, he came to the grass outside the door, the environment here was very different from before, his room was no longer in a building as before, but like a separate hut, suddenly appeared on the grass.
He was not the only one on the meadow, there were more than a dozen houses not far away. I think it must be a student of mechanical manufacturing, and not far from their bunch of houses, there is an even larger house, unlike them, this one has a chimney on it, and it is still emitting black smoke.
This meadow was more extensive than he had imagined, and in terms of the area on the map, it was more than one square kilometer. There was no one on the meadow except for a few children about seven or eight years old who were flying kites.
The meadow was far more expansive than it looked, because he didn't see the boundary at all, and as far as the eye could see, you could only see the horizon in the distance, and there was nothing but the flat grass.
knocked on the door of a nearby room, and a head with messy hair stuck out, "What's the matter, there's a fart." ”
Seeing this chicken's nest-like hairstyle and wearing an oil-stained leather apron, "I just wanted to ask, how can I go to the cafeteria?"
"Wow. The person inside stuck out a head from the crack in the door, glanced at him, and then stretched out his finger, "Follow that road, the distance is a bit far, borrow you first, remember to return me." ”
After saying that, he threw out an object, Zhou Nan hurriedly reached out to catch it, and found that it was the same as what Li Shiping stepped on, it was something similar to a balance car, but this one looked more rough, everything was practical, and he didn't think about the appearance at all, and there were four wheels, so he didn't have to worry about falling to the ground if he couldn't stand steadily.
There was a stone road in the place he had just pointed out, which had been covered by grass, so he didn't see it at first, and it was supposed to be a way to guide the way.
"Thank you......" Before he finished speaking, the door was already closed, and he looked up at the door number, which said Ning Bai, a professional in organ manufacturing. Stimulating the wooden card to take a look, Ning Bai is only fourteen years old this year, and it turned out to be a woman.
I recall that when I first threw out the balance bike, although the hand was also covered with oil and calluses, the joints were not so thick, and the fingers were more slender, which was indeed more biased towards a woman's hand.
But his hair was about the same length, and it was messy like a chicken coop, covered in oil, and I really couldn't tell if it was a man or a woman at first. However, according to the rules of the Academy, Ning Bai should also be a genius player, and she chose a major at the age of fourteen, which is enough to prove how good she is.
Holding the balance bike in my hand, I looked at it over and over for a long time, but I still didn't understand how this balance bike worked, because I didn't find the power source at all, as if this thing only had a standing plank, plus gears and wheels.
However, it is still very simple to use, because there is only one knob on it, which is divided into 0, 1, 2, and 3 gears, which looks somewhat similar to an electric fan.
When I came to the stone road, I stepped on the balance bike, and when I moved my fingers, the knob automatically rotated, and the pointer on it pointed to one, and the balance bike began to move forward automatically, and the speed was not fast, probably a little faster than the walking speed of a normal person.
With four wheels, the turn is not so easy, and you need to rely on the back heel as a fulcrum, and the toe swing to control the front two wheels to be able to turn. It's not easy, it's much harder to handle than a two-wheeled balance bike.
Fortunately, his current physical fitness is not covered, a few casual falls, it doesn't matter at all, and this road is next to the grass, it doesn't matter if you fall on the grass. The grass was so abundant that the grass was just long enough to cover his instep, but it was so thick that it caught the fallen man like a mat.
Although this balance bike is not very easy to control, it is just like playing skateboarding, a few more falls, and everything will be done. Even if he didn't get hurt, no one wanted to fall to the ground all the time, and after the grass around him was flattened, he was finally able to barely maneuver the balance bike.
This can't be blamed for his poor balance, it's really that the control method of this balance bike is too anti-human, the toes swing to control the direction, and the people who make this design should go to the canteen backyard to feed the livestock, and the mechanism is not suitable for them.
But fortunately, he finally mastered the balance bike, and there was no problem in moving forward and turning, at the cost of all the clothes on his body stained with green grass juice, and even a hole in the knee position.
But these are all minor problems, and a simple spell can be solved, and I have collected my image and begun to move forward along this bluestone road. Although the image is not too important, if he is busy, he is willing to be completely raunchy like Ning Bai just now. But it's better not to let others know about such things as throwing yourself to pieces because of a balance bike.
It's strange to say, although the balance bike is very anti-human to handle, but unexpectedly, the wheels are not bad, and it can even be said to be very good. At the beginning, Li Shiping was stepping on the balance bike, and the workmanship of the wheels could be described as extremely simple, not even a circle, but a polygon.
Every time I moved forward, the strange wheel would rattle with the bluestone slab. The wheels of this balance bike can be seen to be made with care, and it is a standard round shape, which does not match the rugged appearance at all. Missing a corner of the pedal, an iron lump with a grooved knob on it, and four delicate wheels, Zhou Nan felt that the person who made this balance bike should feed the animals.
As he became more proficient in his technique, he began to slowly increase his speed, and when he adjusted to third gear, the speed had become very fast, basically reaching the speed of a normal person sprinting with all his might, but as the speed increased, it became more difficult to control the direction, so he still slowed down and moved forward slowly.
This grass looks quite big, but it's not too big, and with the balance bike in hand, he quickly walked out of the grass along the stone path. The moment he left the meadow, the surrounding scene changed, the prairie scenery just now completely disappeared, and he seemed to have come to another place.
Surrounded by a large field, the soil inside the field is black and shiny, full of all kinds of herbs planted, and there are also more than a dozen houses in the middle of the field, and a larger house, I think this should be a gathering place for students of another major.
There is also a bluestone road, which runs through the entire field, and when he looks back, there is the same field scenery behind him, but there is a road sign next to the stone road, which says that the machine manufacturing profession is written.
After taking a few steps back, I returned to the meadow just now, and when I looked ahead, it was also a grassland scenery, and there was also a road sign, which said that herbs were cultivated and made.
It is indeed a very delicate design, no matter which side you look from, you will not see the situation on the other side, you can only see the continuation of your own side, and as the perspective changes, you can see different things.
The grass area calculation just now can be problematic because it is calculated at the scale of the map, but this design can make the space look incredibly expansive, since you can't see the edges at all. But in fact this edge is there, just behind the road sign, less than a meter away, and there is no way to leave it at all, except for this stone road.
Looking back from this place, the house has become very small, visually about a kilometer away, and if the room is in the very center of the meadow, then the area of the meadow will be much larger than what is shown on the map.
"Goo~"
Zhou Nan's stomach let out a long sound, and he looked at the mechanical watch on his wrist, the time was already noon, and he was a little uncomfortable hungry.
I didn't think about those miscellaneous things anymore, the most important thing now is to hurry to the cafeteria, quickly stand on the balance car, and adjust the speed to second gear, so that it is not too slow and will not be difficult to control.
It took more than ten minutes to go all the way along the bluestone road, and finally came to the cafeteria, fortunately Tao Chengzhi left him a map, although there was nothing marked on it, but he could still determine his location, otherwise he might really get lost.
I just came all the way and met no less than ten professional places, there are a hot blacksmith shop, a flowery plant cultivation, a group of people stirring a huge crucible in the open space of the medicine garden, each place is very wide, all are completely different scenery, and there is even a place where there is only a bare hill in it, I don't see anyone, only the sound of clanging, and the street sign says that this is a mineral simulation garden.
This time, he really had a long experience, he hadn't seen such a scene in the previous ten days, and he thought that the Academy was really only as big as the one on the map, but the places he saw just now added up to several times larger than the Academy on the map.
Anyway, he finally came to the cafeteria, he hadn't eaten water and rice since six o'clock in the morning, plus the balance bike that he had practiced for a long time, and he had been fighting with the floor for a long time, and now he was almost fainting from hunger.
This was the first time he had come to the cafeteria, and the first ten days had not yet started school, so everyone had to go out to eat, and the cafeteria was not open at all. Now, with the return of students, the cafeteria has become lively again, and all kinds of noise are endless, even noisier than the Wuyou Village vegetable market.
As soon as you enter the door, it is a place similar to the high school cafeteria, with rows of tables placed in it, and many people are already eating in it, and the air is filled with the smell of food, sweat, and so on.
In addition to the rows of tables, there are two doors in the innermost part of the room, and people are constantly coming in and out, with large cauldrons and small stoves written on them, and the people who enter are not able to see the difference, and the people who come out are a little different.
