Chapter Seventy-One: Magic (Part II)
Although Boss Hu likes to fight and fight, he is thick and fine, not stupid, such as although he often compares with Song Jiu's father, he will not offend Song Jiu's eldest sister, and he is also polite to Song Jiu. Said: "Then you can jump, don't you look for death?" ”
"Hu Xingtou, if I die, can I still say that I am absolutely safe? If you can go to the sky, you can jump up from the sky. ”
Boss Hu was a little dizzy, it was incredible that he couldn't jump from the sky, but it was also incredible to be able to go to the sky, and he wondered: "Really? ”
"You're the first person to jump, so it's free, and if you want to jump in the future, the fee will be amazing, and I asked me in the ya, I said that I would charge five hundred and one thousand yuan, do you think I look up to you very much?"
"Why don't you find someone else to jump?"
"You are the leader of the line, and you have done a lot of things for the villagers in the river, so I picked you. Whatever you want, no, I'll pick one of the students who is daring. ”
"Don't, Xiao Jiu, it's really okay to jump down?"
"If you have something, I will also have a lawsuit, am I stupid?"
"Okay, I promise you."
This is not a very good attempt......
The candidate for the jump was found, and Song Jiu invited a group of Yanei to come over. The next day was calm, although it was cold, but the wind was very small, the weather was sunny and cloudless, which was a good weather to try. There were a lot of Yanei, and there were more than 600 people, including Zhao Pu's son Zhao Chengzong and nephew Zhao Chengqing. Almost all of the Ya in the capital came. They even brought their sisters, including Pan Li'er. Not only did the Yanai come, but also some officials, many people who came to see the excitement after hearing about it, and more and more people came, and there were actually passing passenger ships to berth the boats and board the river island to see the excitement.
Song Jiu also brought all the students with him, including the three brothers-in-law and the three families, and Yuping brought not only Cui'er, but also her "mother". This is not dangerous, there is no need to clear the field, Song Jiu and more than a dozen students carried things out. There are many cowhides used, which are not only heavy, but also have some cysts, which are difficult to hold, and some other things.
The three or four thousand people looked at this thing curiously, Pan Li'er was a woman, and it was not easy to squeeze, so she shouted outside: "Bad guy, let me in." ”
Song Jiu looked up, and after looking for a while before he found it, he saw Pan Li'er standing outside with a group of girlfriends, and he was very anxious, so he said loudly: "Call me Jiulang, and I'll let you in." ”
Pan Weide and Pan Weigu saw that Song Jiu wanted to eat his sister's tofu and wanted to save the car, but they couldn't take care of themselves, where could they save it? Pan Weigu said loudly: "Xiao Jiu, you are not allowed to take advantage of my sister. ”
Laugh together.
It's a wonderful story, and most people have heard about it, but it seems that Apple is gradually gaining the upper hand.
Pan Li'er was silent, but she couldn't bear the begging of her group of girlfriends, and shouted again: "Jiulang bad guy, let us in." ”
How wrong it sounded, the people around him laughed again.
Yuping said, "Jiulang, just let them in." ”
The eldest sister praised in her heart, this kind of bearing, it is enough to be a younger sister. But this is where Yuping is smart, Song Jiu must let it go, it is better to simply be a favor. Song Jiu asked the students to squeeze through the crowd and put dozens of little girls in, Pan Li'er came to the balloon and said, "Is it that makes people go to heaven?" ”
"See." Song Jiudao. An iron stove is placed in the hanging blue, and there is a pipe on the iron stove, but the other end is covered with a bamboo pipe and stuffed into the balloon. The hot air from the iron furnace is then blown into the balloon with a small bellows.
This time is a bit slow.
In addition to the hot air, there is also a small amount of carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide when entering the balloon, because the upper end of the furnace is the tube, and the coal is mostly incompletely burned, and the carbon monoxide is slightly more than carbon dioxide, and the specific gravity is still lighter than the air. But mostly hot air.
The load capacity of a hot air balloon is smaller than that of a hydrogen balloon, but the advantages are also significant, one is that it is easy to do, and the other is that it is safe, even if it cracks in the air, the balloon will only turn into a large parachute and land slowly without exploding. Besides, it would be impossible to make a hydrogen balloon at this time.
Gradually, the balloon was inflated.
Time is very slow, but it can make people go to heaven, they are waiting, in fact, among all the new things launched by Song Jiu, it has the lowest technical content, but it can't stand the name of being able to go to heaven, and as a result, more and more people are coming, and even Lu Duan, the magistrate of Kaifeng, rushed to hear the news.
Seeing that it was eager to try, Song Jiu asked the two students who were holding it down to let go of their hands, and the balloon rose into the air. Not yet, although it rises into the air, the rope is not straightened, and it cannot carry people. First bolt the rope to the stake, save a while people on the side to cheer up, the balloon itself escaped with the hanging blue, and the people chased the rope behind, that is a big oolong.
Song Jiu called Li Zhu, Qin Wazi, Wang Kui, Su Xiaohao, and Cui Erlu to his side, and finally asked Zhao Kuangyi to come back, but these students were not easy, they had to go to school on the one hand, and they had to go to gunpowder from time to time, and they had to come to the workshop from time to time to assist Song Jiu in testing.
However, they didn't realize that they had been rewarded by the court, and they had won respect, and they thought it was worth it. People think differently, and Song Jiu does not forcibly correct it. These five students are the students that Song Jiu values more, but he takes them to heart and never shows them on his face. The partiality of parents is still disgusted by their children. Besides, as a teacher, the good students should be advised not to be complacent, and the poor students should also be encouraged, which is a good teacher.
He whispered a few words.
It's going to go to the sky in a while, and the underground affairs will be handed over to them, making records, observing, and Boss Hu will jump down from the sky for a while, it is impossible to fall in place, and the wind will blow away, and now it is a northwest wind, although it is not big, but it will deviate in the southeast direction. Perhaps a strong gust of wind suddenly blew into the water. It doesn't matter if it's a problem, this falling speed is not very fast, prepare a small flat boat, and the person will be safe. But send someone to answer it. As long as there is nothing wrong with the answer, it will be even if it falls on the tree.
There were also a few students who took turns cheering.
After more than half an hour, the huge balloon finally inflated, swelled into an oval, and the rope was stretched straight, Song Jiu said to Boss Hu: "Hu Xingtou, let's go up." ”
"Come on," Boss Hu stubbornly climbed onto the hanging blue.
Song Jiu signaled, Su Xiaohao let go of the rope, and the balloon floated upward.
"It's heavenly!" The people below shouted. The balloon rose higher and higher, and as a result, many people ran to Hezhou to see the excitement. Boss Hu was surprised at first, but as the balloon rose, he saw that the people below became smaller and smaller, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to open his eyes.
Song Jiudao: "There is a hanging blue block, what are you afraid of?" ”
"I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid," Boss Hu barely opened his eyes, but he didn't dare to look down, he was embarrassed, otherwise he would have screamed.
"Oh my God?" The eldest sister was dizzy below, and at this time the balloon rose very high, full thirty or forty zhang high.
Cui'er tugged at Yuping's elbow and said, "Lady, the official is so capable, it's really heavenly." ”
Some titles in the Song Dynasty are not very clear, such as a lady can be called a woman, or a wife, and an official can be called a person who has no official position but has an identity, such as Lu Junyi and Lu Daguan, but you can't call an official, that's not suitable, but you can call your husband. Song Jiu is an official, and he can call Jiulang, even if he is Xiaojiu, but he can't be called an official, there is only one exception.
Pan Li'er stood on the side, looked at Cui'er, and then at Yuping, her eyes were a little confused, and she didn't know what Lu Dao was thinking. But a group of yamen were in a hurry, and they all rolled their arms to squeeze through the crowd, and they would have to go up later, so they had to grab their positions.
Not only that, but even Lu Duan also thought about it, but he was a magistrate, so it was hard to say, so he just muttered: "What a great physicism." ”
Even people can go to heaven, what else can't be done? No wonder you can make a new type of steel. At this time, Qin Wazi said proudly: "Don't worry, there will be more amazing things later, and Hu Xingtou will jump from the sky in a while." ”
"What a jump?" All mouth wide open. None of them are stupid, so high, don't look down from above, even from the bottom up, you feel dizzy, is there still life when you jump down? No wonder the painting painted people are screaming, can they not scream?
The words reached the back, and the people behind talked together, and the buzzing sounded together. I don't know what will happen if this person jumps down. Lu Duan whispered to Su Xiaohao: "Your husband really said jumping? ”
"Lu Zhixian, I said it, and I have some things ready."
"It's okay to jump?"
"It's fine."
"It's amazing that you can't do anything, it's too much."
"The gentleman said that it is a safe extreme sport, and that the playground will be designed to resemble several similar entertainment activities in the future."
"Extreme sports ......" Lu Duan was silent, this can be called the real limit!
The balloon finally floated in the air and no longer rose, for various reasons, the air above was a little thinner and a little colder, which offset the buoyancy of the hot air on the air, but if the balloon was made larger, it could rise a little more. Song Jiu waved the flag, this height has to be asked clearly, it can't be visually detected above, and it can only be seen from the length of the rope brought up below. The standard landing height is one hundred and fifty meters, and you can jump with this height, but Song Jiu was afraid that what he made was not standard, so he set its height to a minimum of seventy or eighty zhang, nearly two hundred and fifty meters.
Qin Wazi looked at the deliberateness on the rope, and waved the flag nine times below, which means that the rope rose ninety zhang, no, including the twisted length of the air part, but the wind was small, and it must have exceeded eighty zhang. Song Jiu tied things behind Boss Hu. At this height, Boss Hu had already collapsed in the hanging blue and didn't dare to move.
Song Jiu said: "Hu Xingtou, start jumping." ”
"Xiao Jiu, I don't dare to jump, let's go down."
"Boss Hu, I will open the skylight and speak brightly, I have told some of my students about this principle, they will be a little scared when they come up, but they will definitely dare to jump. What are you shouting for? I'm not sensitive to heights, but that's a big deal. Once the river island is developed, it will bring countless job opportunities to the people in the river, and life will become better and better. But after success, many people will be red-eyed, and maybe they will make a fuss about it. I am the first person to go to heaven, and if I bring students, it is easy to be made a fuss. But you are different, at least on the surface you are a rough person, you went to the sky with me, and you were the first to jump, it is not easy to make a fuss. In fact, it is very safe, even for the sake of hundreds of thousands of people, you also have to jump. Whether you can be happy in the river or not, this thing is very important, and whether this thing can cause a sensation is your jump. ”
"Xiao Jiu, don't force me."
"I'm talking about the truth, what a force!"
"Then I'll jump." Boss Hu gritted his teeth and closed his eyes and jumped down, but after a while, he screamed. didn't fall, but a rope pulled him, and the hanging blue was a little crooked. This is for the sake of safety, it depends on whether the umbrella behind it can be opened, if it can't be opened, command the ground with the flag in time, pull the balloon down, and people will be fine. If the umbrella is opened, you can use a knife to cut the rope and the person will fall. Hu Laoda hung in the air, he couldn't hang the blue, he didn't dare to look below, it seemed that the clouds were floating near him, and he was so frightened that he shouted: "Xiao Jiu, pull me up." ”
The voice shouted loudly, and the people below could also hear it, and Lu Duan was also anxious, and said to a few students: "Quickly command Song Jiu and pull him up." ”
But it was useless for him to shout, Song Jiu had chopped the rope with a knife, and when the knife went down, Boss Hu fell down quickly, and the wind whistled in his ears, and Boss Hu screamed in fright. Not only is he screaming, but the people below are also shouting, how high is that, it looks like a small beetle, this one will fall to pieces when it falls. Almost all the women shouted together, and then covered their eyes to not looking.
