Chapter 268: Introducing the Artifact
Luda raised his eyebrows at Song Lingyue: "Shopkeeper Song, let's meet again." β
"Master Lu, I'm here too." Song Lingyue smiled at Luda, which was considered a return of the courtesy, "Please come inside." β
Ruda waved his hand: "I came here for your mysterious artifact, how can I get in?" I'll talk about it when I've seen what your magic trick is. β
"That's right! Yes! I almost forgot, but the flyer also said that there was an artifact that could make people who couldn't walk walk on their own! If this uncle hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten it! β
"If you can really make people who can't walk walk again, it's really an artifact!"
"I don't know what this artifact looks like! I want to see it! β
"Doctor Song, didn't you introduce that artifact at your new product launch?"
With the gossip of the villagers present, Song Lingyue could only go down again to appease everyone:
"Naturally, this artifact is also to be displayed. However, this artifact does not allow people who are already unconscious to return to normal walking mode, but after using this artifact, they can move on their own, and they don't always have to be carried or carried by family members or servants to go out and see the sun. β
Song Lingyue slapped her palms lightly, only to see that the door of the medical hall opened again, and Qi Mo and Liu Liang stood left and right in front of something covered with red cloth that could not see the shape clearly.
Look at the size of half a person, I don't know what it is, it's strange.
When everyone's curiosity had been raised to the highest point, Song Lingyue smiled slightly and unveiled the red silk cloth.
The crowd who was waiting to see the excitement stretched their necks and waited to see what kind of magical thing it was, and when the red silk cloth was revealed, everyone turned from curiosity and surprise to suspicion.
"Thisβthis looks like a chair."
A hesitant voice in the crowd spoke.
"What is like a chair, I think it's a chair, but it's a little weird."
"I've never seen a chair like this before, and the more I look at it, the more strange it becomes."
"Is this an artifact that allows people who are not good at doing things to act on their own? I don't think it's amazing at all, it's just a chair! β
"How can this thing make people walk? Could it be that it is carried by the subordinates? Yanagi laughed from the crowd.
"Not really! This chair can't be lifted even if people lift it! There is not even a place to carry it! β
Immediately the crowd resounded in response.
"Please calm down, folks." Song Lingyue didn't panic at all in the face of everyone's doubts, and even had a perfectly curved smile on the corner of her lips.
"The folks must be curious about what is so remarkable about such a strange-looking chair that can be called an artifact."
As soon as Song Lingyue's voice fell, everyone on the lookers nodded.
"This weird chair, I call it a wheelchair." Song Lingyue pointed to the wooden wheels on both sides of the wheelchair to show everyone:
"Folks, you see, the handles on both sides of this chair are positioned in addition to the ordinary armrests, and two wheels are added, hence the name of the wheelchair.
Thanks to these two wheels, the chair has the function of moving. β
After Song Lingyue finished speaking, she came to the back of the wheelchair, and with a gentle push, the wheelchair rolled forward, and the crowd was suddenly startled and busily opened the road.
The wooden wheelchair looked very heavy, but Song Lingyue could easily slide with a light push, which made her feel a little more dexterous.
"You see, with a slight push, the chair slips out a lot. If there is a sick person in the family who has difficulty walking, he can sit on this chair and be pushed by the servant to walk, which is more dignified than being carried by the servant. Song Lingyue introduced to everyone.
"This chair, not this wheelchair, is really interesting!" Ruda looked around with interest and looked around curiously, as if to see how Song Lingyue had assembled the parts.
"This thing is really good, with family members or servants pushing it, people who are inconvenient to walk can also use this wheelchair to go out for a walk and breathe, it's much better than being stuffy in the house."
"Yes, my second uncle has been unable to stand and walk since he fell from the upper floor three years ago and injured his waist, and can only stay in bed every day. When I went to see him, I always saw him looking longingly at his nephews and nieces playing outside the window, but he couldn't go out without help, and he couldn't even get close to his children. β
"Heh, after all, this is a wooden chair refit, it must be very heavy, just now it was an empty chair Doctor Song pushed it easily, if it really sits, can it still be pushed so easily?" Yanagi raised a questioning voice in the crowd.
There was silence for a moment, and the crowd exchanged heads and ears with approval.
"This show is right. Isn't it convenient to take care of the sick at home when you want to buy this thing? If it takes two or three people to push it, wouldn't it be more troublesome than before. β
"But this thing can be sitting, so it's better to go out decently."
"If that's the case, why don't you travel in a sedan chair?" Yanagi retorted loudly.
Qi Momo's eyes swept over Liu Sheng, who had been stabbed three times and twice in the crowd, his sword eyebrows frowned slightly, and he took two steps back and gave Liu Liang a look.
Seeing this, Liu Liang secretly nodded to Qi Mo, indicating that he had written down this person.
Song Lingyue stood with her back to Qi Mo and Liu Liang, naturally she didn't see them exchanging eyes, but she was also not afraid of danger, and the curvature of the corners of her lips was perfect:
"The question raised by this son is very good, and it is really what Ling Yue wants to demonstrate to all the villagers next."
After Song Lingyue finished speaking, she looked at Liu Sheng, smiled at Liu Sheng, and said:
"Originally, the next demonstration was jointly conducted by Qi Xiucai and me. But since this son has doubts in his heart, I wonder if this son can come forward and cooperate and demonstrate with me? β
Liu Sheng opened his mouth to answer, 'no', but when he saw Song Lingyue's black and white eyes looking at her with a smile, those eyes were very good, and his eyes were shining with anticipation, which made him stunned for a moment, and when he woke up, the word 'good' had already blurted out.
"Then this son, please sit in a wheelchair and see if I can push you." Song Lingyue smiled slightly and made a gesture of please.
Liu Sheng pursed the corners of his lips, didn't speak, and was about to sit in a wheelchair.
"Childe wait a minute." Song Lingyue stopped Liu Sheng, "Take the liberty of asking Gongzi if he knows his height and weight?" β
"Seven feet three inches, about sixty kilograms." Liu Sheng didn't know why Song Lingyue asked this, but he still answered truthfully.
Song Lingyue silently calculated in her heart, one foot in the Great Xia Dynasty is about twenty-four or five centimeters, that is to say, this Liu Sheng is about one meter seventy-three, and the weight of this one hundred and twenty catties is quite proportional compared to his height.
Not to mention, this Liu Sheng looks tall and thin, but he didn't expect to be more than a hundred pounds.
"What do you mean by that?" Yanagi asked strangely.
Song Lingyue didn't look at Liu Sheng either, but just said to the onlookers: "All the villagers have heard it, this son's height and weight are not a little bit heavier than the little girl." β
Song Lingyue took two steps forward and let everyone look at her.
The good student will be raised for more than half a year, and the original short, thin, cowering little girl is like two people.
Today's Song Lingyue, although she is still a girl who has never reached the end of her life, is born tall and tall, with slender limbs, and due to regular exercise, the curve of her body is even tighter than that of ordinary girls.
Look at her skin transparently, like congealed fat, red lips and white teeth, beautiful eyes, standing there at this time, gentle and beautiful, really delicate and weak.
Compared with Liu Sheng, who was standing next to her and was thin but half a head taller than her, he looked even more coquettish and pitiful.
"Doctor Song looks a little delicate, even weaker than that Xiucai, can she really push him?"
"I don't think Doctor Song's strength is very strong, I'm afraid that I won't be able to push that Liu Sheng."
"I think that Liu Sheng is clearly here to provoke thorns, and he can't bear to bully such a delicate beauty."
The gossip of the surrounding people directly stabbed Liu Sheng's ears, burning him, a white-faced scholar, restless, wanting to leave but unable to go, he could only sit on pins and needles.
"Childe, please sit down and put your feet on the pedals, so that you can push." Song Lingyue motioned for Liu Sheng to put his feet on the pedals.
Liu Sheng did as Song Lingyue instructed, and then waited for Song Lingyue's next move.
Song Lingyue walked behind Liu Sheng, held the handrail behind the wheelchair with both hands, and with a little effort, the wheelchair slid forward.
The wheelchair suddenly moved, Liu Sheng, who was sitting on it, was startled, hurriedly held on to the armrest, and just wanted to turn his head and ask Song Lingyue what he was doing, when he saw that everyone on the lookers were looking at him with surprised eyes, and he could only swallow what he wanted to say.
"As you can see, a woman who is weak and weak can easily push a man who is taller and heavier than me, without much effort." Song Lingyue said and walked around with a wheelchair to show everyone present.
"This son, dare to sit comfortably?" This sentence is asked about Yanagi, who is in a wheelchair.
Liu Sheng wanted to find some faults, but in addition to being startled when he was in a wheelchair just now, he didn't notice the movement for a while, Song Lingyue pushed him to walk on the bluestone slab as if he were walking on the ground.
Even if you want to find out the mistakes, as a gentleman, you can't say anything, and you can only say: "It's pretty steady." β
"It's really magical, and it's really an artifact!" Ruda's eyes lit up, "With this thing, it can really make it much more convenient for those patients and the elderly who are inconvenient to move." β
"Not only that, but if the patient's upper limbs exert force, they can also push the wheelchair forward on their own." Song Lingyue smiled slightly, and motioned for Liu Sheng to put his hands on the outer wheel of the wooden wheel:
"Hold the wheel with both hands, and if you push your hands forward, you will go forward, and if you push your hands back, you will step back."
Hearing this, Liu Sheng tentatively clenched his hands into fists and pushed the outer wheel forward, the outer wheel was driven by the force of the inner wheel, and the wheelchair took a short step forward.
