It's a familiar smell, but it seems like I haven't smelled it for a long time, and I remember that in modern times, there is always something that smells when you pass by. Wang Baoyu thought about it for a long time, and a word appeared in his mind, which immediately made him excited.

Gasoline! Yes, this is the smell of gasoline, modern society has developed transportation, and the streets are full of all kinds of cars, Wang Baoyu is very familiar with this smell.

Gasoline is a good thing, it is an indispensable thing for modern industry, how many countries have broken their heads for this kind of energy, Wang Baoyu suddenly became interested, and shouted at the soldiers while chasing: "Hey, horseman, you give me down!" ”

A few days ago, Wang Baoyu attacked Xiangyang, Wang Baoyu was famous, the soldier turned around and recognized it was Wang Baoyu, quickly stopped the horse, turned over, and arched his hand: "Don't drive, what are the arrangements?" ”

Alas, Lao Tzu is not a driver now, but a driver in modern times, and he still has a license. Wang Baoyu stepped forward and asked, "How did you do it, your body stinks so much?" ”

The soldier was startled, thinking that he had collided with the official, and hurriedly said with a bitter face: "Please don't forgive the king, it's not a small recklessness, but to go to Xinye to deliver a letter, and on the way, a few naughty boys threw this thing!" I encountered rivers along the way, and I washed them several times, but I was very stubborn and smelled quite strong. ”

As he spoke, the soldier also pulled up his clothes to show Wang Baoyu, and sure enough, there was a large piece of black and greasy dirt, Wang Baoyu stepped forward and pulled his clothes and sniffed them carefully, confirming that this was the smell of gasoline, but obviously it was not gasoline, but crude oil that had not yet been smelted, that is, oil.

"Do you know where you got this thing from?" Wang Baoyu asked.

"Recently, a stream of black water gushed out from the side of Heilong Mountain, which is viscous and oily, smelly, and the people are unlucky." The soldier said.

"Okay, you can hurry up and deliver the letter!" Wang Baoyu said, hurriedly turned around and walked home, made an appointment with Fan Jinqiang, and the two rode straight to Xinye.

When he arrived in Xinye, it was getting late, Wang Baoyu did not enter the city, but inquired all the way, and found this place where the so-called black water came out, which was at the foot of Heilong Mountain, not far from the roadside, and looked like a pond.

The familiar smell came, Wang Baoyu carefully took some with a wooden stick, and asked Fan Jinqiang to light it with a fire sickle, and sure enough, it quickly burned, just a little bit on the wooden stick, and it burned with black smoke, accompanied by a choking smell.

Fan Jinqiang covered his nose vigilantly and asked suspiciously: "Brother, what is this evil water, it can be lit?" ”

"Alas, this is called oil, and it is an absolutely good thing, and one day in the future, it may be more valuable than gold. It's a pity that I didn't learn smelting technology in physical chemistry when I was in school, otherwise, we would all be able to build cars. I vaguely remember that according to different boiling points, different ingredients can be distilled one by one, and in that case, we will become the world's first oil tycoon! Wang Baoyu sighed, feeling pity from the bottom of his heart.

Fan Jinqiang was confused, what kind of physical chemistry car tycoon, it was simply a book from heaven, he only understood the word oil, and then said: "This thing smells bad, otherwise it can be used for lighting." ”

"Direct use of environmental pollution is strict, and the indoor is not ventilated, and it is easy to be poisoned." Wang Baoyu said confidently: "However, I will use this thing to burn Cao Cao's army of 50,000 more." ”

"The eldest brother believes that the brother has the ability." Fan Jinqiang grinned.

The big war is imminent, without further ado, Wang Baoyu did not stay, and Fan Jinqiang immediately galloped all the way back to Fancheng, and when he arrived home, it was already half of the night.

Zhuge Liang's house is still lit up, he is worried about how to deal with the current situation, Xiangyang is a piece of fat, it is an absolute pity to lose it, but how to attack it has become a piece of his heart.

"Sir!" Wang Baoyu rushed into the house and shouted, holding a small pottery bowl in his hand, which contained the oil that had just been extracted.

"Baoyu, why does it stink so much?" Zhuge Liang smelled the unpleasant smell, fanned his nose, and said: "A gentleman should clean himself before he can see a guest, go and wash it and come again." ”

"Hehe, my dear Master, what do you think this is?" Wang Baoyu handed the small bowl to Zhuge Liang.

"What is this? Shaped like sludge. Zhuge Liang wondered.

"It's oil, good stuff!" Wang Baoyu said.

"Oil?" Zhuge Liang didn't know this new word, and asked: "What can it be used for?" ”

"It can be lit."

"It smells so bad that no one will use it." Zhuge Liang waved his hand.

"This was found from Black Dragon Mountain, there are a lot of them, if you get this thing to Xinye City, won't you be able to burn Cao Bing clean?" Wang Baoyu said.

Zhuge Liang is such a smart person, he can understand it at one point, and immediately showed excitement, and then thought of a question: "It smells so bad, Cao Bing is suspicious, how can he enter the city?" ”

"I don't think so, they don't know what it is, and the more so, maybe they don't care." Wang Baoyu raised a different opinion.

Zhuge Liang thought about it, and felt that it made some sense, so he immediately took out the map again, and the two of them stayed by the map to study until dawn, and a plan to burn Xinye City finally took shape.

Early the next morning, Zhuge Liang ignored his fatigue and informed Liu Bei of the plan to burn Xinye, Liu Bei hesitated and did not express his position immediately, although it was left to Cao Thief and cheapened the old boy. But if he comes back from fighting one day, won't he destroy his homeland? Shinno is a chicken rib with a lot of meat on it!

But when Zhuge Liang presented the oil in front of Liu Bei, and introduced it like this, Liu Bei's hand covering his nose immediately slapped excitedly on the case, and just did it! The oil didn't smell anymore to him, and the smell really got better and better, and he looked at it again and again in his palm.

It's not that the author is whimsical, wanton fabrication, there are no wonders in the world, some like to smell the fragrance, some people like to smell the smell of fart, and there are many people waiting for the bus to pass, stretching out their noses to take a few more breaths of the exhaust gas mixed with the smell of gasoline and diesel, and trying their best to hide their intoxication on their faces, in fact, these are not problems.

And then make it up, oh no, it's going to be written.

Zhuge Liang set off again with a team of men and horses to Xinye County, including Sun Gan, Mi Zhu, Liu Feng and others, Sun Gan, Mi Zhu's main job is to pacify the people in the city, take the people back to Fancheng, Liu Feng led the troops to listen to the arrangement at any time.

Wang Baoyu didn't want to go, but Zhuge Liang had to pull him, so he had to go together, and after coming to Xinye County, the group and Zhao Yun Guanting's defenders converged, and immediately began to act, and notices were posted all over the city, saying that the war was imminent, and all the people in the city were moved to Fancheng with their families.
