Chapter 943: The Old Bachelor's Painting Style Suddenly Changes
Aoro stood up tremblingly—the onlookers would even worry that the old man would suddenly rattle as he spoke—and he took a few breaths before slowly speaking about the state of affairs inside and outside the castle: "The electric elves have just returned, and now they are very weak, we have lost more than half of our lights, and the stove and part of the water source have stopped. The technical apprentices found some burned-out wiring and they are replacing those parts, but we don't have enough spare parts......"
"Fix the stove first, and the water source can be fetched from the nearby Sink Town, where the reserve of clean water can be supplied for at least half a month," the Castle Governor interrupted the Bachelor, "Is there any news from Metal Town?" ”
"There's no light on them from here, and I'm afraid the power over there hasn't been restored, and the transmitter won't work," another stocky man sitting next to the bachelor stood up, "Looks like someone needs to be sent." ”
"Then send someone over, you will lead the team, bring a few more people, and be careful that the barbarians of the Iron City State take this opportunity to snatch our galvanized sheets and wires."
"Winter is coming," Ao Ero still had something to say, "My lord, this darkness should be a warning, and the firewood we have offered will not stop this winter, so now we should think about what we should do if winter really comes." We're going to gather the outcasts, stock up on more supplies, and send envoys to the Iron City-State......"
"Bachelor, you're only an expert in machines and light bulbs, and I've got the final say on war," the Castle Governor tapped on the table, "I don't care if the cold winter you said will come or not, there will be no real peace between us and the Iron City-State, at least I won't take the initiative to make a truce with that kind of treacherous barbarians." ”
The bachelor snorted, but the old man had no intention of challenging the authority of the governor on the spot, and after a heavy sigh, he sat back.
The Governor of the Castle hurriedly finished the meeting and arranged all the rest of the matter, and then urged the Augurs and the escort to set off as soon as possible. He consulted Hao Ren, a "guest general", for their opinions. However, Hao Ren also meant that it was best to leave early-so after asking the old bachelor to prepare briefly, the group was ready to leave Fireplace City.
Hao Ren and the others were waiting for Willy at the small intersection in front of the fireplace, and Lily looked at the "Ancestral Furnace" at the end of the horizon with her feet crossed, she was a little worried: "Let's not walk over, right?" I also have to bring an eighty-year-old man, and I will walk slowly for dozens of kilometers and estimate that the reactor will blow up again......"
Hao Ren was also thinking about this matter in his heart, and the group of supermen around him would run over very quickly. But it's another matter to bring Willy and Oro, Willy has seen "witchcraft", so it's still a bit possible to use some high-tech to bring him over, such as the high-tech Big Dipper in the carry-on space, the problem is Aoluo Bachelor, the old man's eighty-year-old heart may not be able to accept the surging speed of the Big Dipper......
However, the entanglement in his heart did not last long when he was interrupted by a "sudden" sound from behind him, only to hear a movement of a tractor from far and near, he turned his head to look, and saw a magical vehicle driving out of the hearth city with black smoke......
I saw that the back half of the vehicle was a square carriage made of iron sheets and wooden planks. The front of the car is tied to a car that is not matched at all, the engine in the front of the car is completely exposed, two curved exhaust pipes extend from both sides of the engine, and black smoke "suddenly" emits on both sides of the front of the car, and the driver's seat of this car is also quite magical: there is a black wooden chair, which is fixed to the back of the engine with wire and rope, and the steering wheel in front of the chair is a curved handle that I don't know where to dismantle. Not only is it curved, but it is also asymmetrical......
But the most amazing scene was the man sitting on the chair: the Aurom sat on it. The thin, old, frail old scholar sat straight in his chair, his face grim as he held the steering wheel, his hair fluttering slightly in the wind with a fist around his head, like an old knight patrolling the battlefield.
This scene stunned Lily: "Huh? ”
With billowing black smoke and a deafening thud, the patchwork tin tractor finally creaked to a stop in front of Hao Ren, and Willy poked his head out of the car behind him. The young man seemed very energetic at this time: "It's been a long wait, let's go, let's get in the car." ”
Hao Ren pointed to this "car", his stomach was full of grooves and he didn't know where to start vomiting, he thought that he should complain about the fact that there are still people in this world who have degenerated into a cold weapon feudal dynasty and can drive. Or should I complain that there are actually trucks made of planks and wires in the world - this magical vehicle is like a work of art, standing proudly in the crotch of classical and modern trousers, and it is just a mouth-opening place to put it here.
"Surprised, huh?" Aoluo saw Hao Ren's expression in the rearview mirror, and the old man smiled very proudly, "Only a bachelor who has studied in the Tower of Knowledge for more than six years can obtain the qualification and learn how to control this steel beast chariot, and there are only three such chariots in the entire Fireplace City. Had it not been for His Majesty's urgent summons, the Governor would certainly not have let it go. Say no more, get in the car! ”
Hao Ren swallowed back the words full of words, and dragged Lily into the car. When he got on the train, he found that there were no formal seats in the carriage at all - because the whole carriage was a wooden box tied with wire, and the locals did not know how to make car seats or how to fix them to the chassis of the car. Willie dragged a few folding stools from the back of the carriage and pushed them in front of Hao Ren: "Please take a seat." ”
Bachelor Oro, who was in front, confirmed that everyone had gotten into the car, so he beckoned everyone to sit down, then shook his robe, sat up on the wooden chair, and started the car with a golden knife.
Lily glanced at the folding stool that Willy had pushed over: "Decades ago, when I rode the stuffy train into the city, it was also Maza...... Oh my god! ”
It turned out that the old bachelor kicked the accelerator in front of him, and the combined tractor rushed onto the potholed avenue, and the violent bumps suddenly made Lily a dog gnaw mud in front of Hao Ren, Hao Ren hurriedly helped the girl up, and then saw that other people in the carriage also began to follow the bumps and sway there, it turned out that it was meaningless to install any kind of seats in this car, because after the car was opened, the whole carriage was simply in Brownian motion, and the passengers needed to use great skill to fix themselves in a position, On the surface, everyone looks like they are sitting on chairs, but in fact, everyone is squatting and keeping pace with the carriage......
Willy, a timid soldier who seemed to be useless, seemed very calm at this time, as a local, he was used to it......
"Can this car really drive?" Hao Ren squatted and said loudly to Willy, "Is there a road outside?" ”
He still remembered the terrible road conditions he saw when he came from the Road of Plenty, the former smooth shelter avenue was already as dilapidated as the Gobi Desert, and he was quite skeptical about how far the artwork under his ass could go after it was put on the road, and he felt the amplitude of the vibration of the carriage, and he even felt that the lateral mileage of this car was the same as the longitudinal driving range......
Willie replied loudly, "It's okay! The main road is often manicured! ”
Hao Ren glanced out, and sure enough, he saw that the car was driving onto a wider and better road, and although the cement pavement of this road had also cracked and broken, all the potholes showed signs of being filled in, which made him feel a little relieved.
But when Auro kicked off the gas pedal and slammed the car onto the road, he realized: the road conditions are the best for the eggs.
The condition of the car is TM is a hard injury, this car has no shock absorption at all! Its four wheels weren't even all round - no wonder a highly intelligent bachelor had to study for six years in that tower to learn how to drive a tractor, because it wasn't a driving subject at all, it was an extreme sports subject!
Hao Ren was worried about whether the various parts of the car would fall off while running along with the synchronous vibration of the carriage, and at the same time looked at the Oro Bachelor who was sitting on the front of the car outside through the window in front of the carriage, the old man was sitting on a back chair tied to the engine with wires and ropes, his robe and hair were hunting and flying in the wind, he was particularly worried about what would happen if the old man fell off the chair if he didn't sit firmly......
"My impression of this bachelor has been subverted," Nangong Sanba said to his sister, "No one on earth who is sixty years younger than him dares to play like this." ”
Hao Ren shook with the car while thinking in his heart: Don't say if anyone dares to drive this car on the earth, whether you can recognize it or not is still a question...... (To be continued.) )
