Chapter 035: The Study of Things

Shopkeeper Xu smiled mysteriously and said, "Don't worry, Lord Wang, I have my own measure." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 It turned out that he was not at ease after listening to Chen Tianyu say this method, so he rehearsed it in advance, so he already knew it at this time.

Wang Yinglin saw that he swore an oath, thinking that he was a guest, and it was inconvenient to say more, so he would wait to see how the situation developed, and if there was really something wrong, it would not be too late to stop it.

After waiting for another pillar of incense, Shopkeeper Xu asked, "Master Lu, start the competition at this time, what questions do you have?" ”

Lu Gongzi's hands and feet were already able to move at this time, but he was still a little numb, and he thought: "In my opinion, this question is not at all more than determination, it is more stupid than anyone, this full pot of oil is boiling, and your hands will go down, let your martial arts cover the world, and you have to be hot on the outside and tender on the inside." I'm not going to do such a stupid thing, but that stupid boy might do. It's just that even if he can endure the severe pain and fish out the bracelet, he must be a cripple, how can Shopkeeper Xu marry his daughter to a cripple? Hmph, I'll just wait to see the show. So he said, "I'm fine, let's get started." ”

Seeing that he agreed, the shopkeeper Xu shouted loudly: "Ignite the fire!" ”

One of the cooks threw the fire into the stove in response, while the other took a fan and fanned the wind at the bottom of the stove. After a while, the coke in the stove was blazing.

The fire became more and more intense, and everyone looked into the pot, only to see that after a short time, many small bubbles came up. As the bubbles bubbled more and more, gradually converging into a stream of air, the pot of oil boiled, and at the same time, everyone smelled a sour smell in their noses.

When Wang Yinglin heard this smell, he immediately knew in his heart, and couldn't help but smile, and his suspicion was gone.

Seeing that the oil was already boiling, the shopkeeper Xu ordered loudly: "Start!" ”

Everyone's hearts trembled, and they all thought: "Obediently, if it were me, let alone go to catch the bracelet, even if you stretch out your finger and go down to take a hand, you don't dare." ”

Lu Gongzi stood still, laughing without saying a word, thinking that a good show was about to be staged.

Sure enough, Chen Tianyu listened to Xu's shopkeeper's order, glanced at Lu Gongzi, and shouted, "I'm coming!" "Go to the stove, roll up the cuffs, and reach for it.

Everyone couldn't bear it, so the timid closed their eyes and didn't dare to look at it again, and the bold ones were also worried in their hearts, not knowing how this Chen Gongzi would scream next.

An old man couldn't help but persuade: "Gongzi Chen, you have to think about it, if you go this time, your arm will be useless." ”

Chen Tianyu smiled faintly and said, "Dad, don't worry, I have such determination, God will definitely bless me." ”

Seeing that he had made up his mind, the old man shook his head, sighed, and stopped talking.

Lu Gongzi secretly blamed the old man for being troublesome and glared at him. I secretly shouted in my heart: "Hurry down, hurry down!" ”

I saw Chen Tianyu stretch out a finger and scratch it on the surface of the oil, as if to test the temperature, and then stretched his arm into it violently.

Everyone watched their hearts beat wildly, and they felt that a heart was about to pop out of their throats, just waiting for the screams of Chen Gongzi to come.

It's just that his heart was beating for a long time, but he didn't hear any screams, and he looked intently, only to see that Chen Gongzi's entire arm was soaked in the boiling vegetable oil, not only did his face grope and grope as usual, but even the color of the skin on his arm did not change at all.

This kind of vision was unseen and unheard of by all the people present, and many people thought that he was really blessed by God, possessed by the gods, and they were all amazed.

After touching it for a while, Chen Tianyu slowly pulled his arm out of the oil pot, held the bracelet in his hand, and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Xu, Master Lu, I won this competition?" ”

Lu Gongzi's face was like ashes, and he shouted frantically: "This is impossible! That's impossible! I don't believe it, there must be something wrong with that pot of oil! As he spoke, he ran to the frying pan and put his hand inside. It's just that he just stretched in less than half an inch, and suddenly there was a scream of "ah", and he hurriedly threw his hand out at a very fast speed, but his fingertips were already hot and red. …,

Chen Tianyu sneered on the side: "Master Lu, the taste of the oil pot is good, right?" ”

Lu Gongzi looked dazed and confused, although he knew that there must be a problem here, but he couldn't figure out what the problem was. He muttered, "No, no...... It's just not right anyway......"

Wang Yinglin saw that this Lu Gongzi obviously had the advantage, but he was suddenly reversed, and at this time he seemed to be a little delirious, and he couldn't bear it, so he said: "Lu Gongzi, do you know white vinegar?" ”

Lu Gongzi looked puzzled and said, "White vinegar? You know, what advice does Lord Wang have? ”

Wang Yinglin saw that he hadn't understood yet, and explained: "There are actually two things in this oil pot, one is white vinegar and the other is vegetable oil, vegetable oil is lighter than white vinegar, so it floats on it." Both are transparent, so from the outside, there is only vegetable oil in this pot and no white vinegar. ”

Lu Gongzi was a little sober at this time, and nodded again and again when he listened, but he still didn't understand the doorway, and asked, "Then why did he reach down unharmed, but I was burned?" ”

Wang Yinglin stroked his beard and smiled: "It seems that you only read the books of sages, but you are not familiar with the study of things. This white vinegar has a characteristic, that is, it turns into steam when it is slightly heated, and it sinks to the bottom of the oil pan, and when it rises, it is like the oil in this pot is boiling. When Chen Gongzi stretched out his hand, it was when the white vinegar turned into steam and came out, so the oil pot was actually not hot. He fumbled in it for a long time, and the white vinegar at the bottom had already melted, so when you reached out, the oil was really boiling. I don't know if you understand this explanation? ”

Lu Gongzi suddenly realized at this time, and said respectfully: "Lord Wang is wise! I was taught! ”

The onlookers listened to Wang Yinglin's explanation, and only then did they understand that Chen Tianyu was not blessed by God at all, but saw the doorway, so he dared to reach out. It's just that no one could have imagined that this competition was actually from Chen Tianyu's hand, how could he not understand the doorway?

Chen Tianyu laughed secretly while listening to it: "Lao Tzu deliberately groped inside for a long time, just to let all the white vinegar evaporate, Lu Gongzi, you are stupid and still stretch your hand in, who are you burning if you don't burn?" However, he admired Wang Yinglin very much, and thought: "I have hundreds of years of knowledge more than that Lord Wang, and it is not uncommon for me to understand these truths. ”

When Wang Yinglin made this explanation, he was watching and listening to all directions, and when he caught a glimpse of Chen Tianyu snickering there, he immediately guessed: "I said that this shopkeeper Xu is a businessman, how can he understand so much?" It turned out to be the ghost of this little Chen Gongzi. It's just that this shopkeeper Xu is not kind, and he actually joined forces with him to trap this Lu Gongzi, which is really not done by a righteous man and a gentleman! But at this time, although he understood it in his heart, he couldn't say it through his mouth, and only boasted: "Chen Gongzi is young, and he can see through the doorway, which is really not simple!" ”

Chen Tianyu was proud, made a gesture to Wang Yinglin, and said, "Lord Wang has won the award!" ”
