Chapter 967: New Energy
Jiang Xingchen was really surprised, it was June now, the temperature had almost reached thirty degrees, and it took two days to come back from the ice field, even if this piece of ice was frozen again, it should have melted, but although the ice that the little pom-pom took was also melting, it was still preserved, it was really strange!
"There must be something different about this piece of ice!" Jiang Xingchen came up with this thought, and held up the ice block to look at it carefully. ∑ Top Novel, www.
"Huh?" he immediately noticed something strange when he focused his attention. The surface of this piece of ice is actually released with a large amount of gas, which is very obvious.
It is too normal for there to be gas in the ice cube, but what surprised Jiang Xingchen was that the amount of gas was too large, far exceeding the amount of gas in the bubbles in the ordinary ice cube, such an obvious release fluctuation, he could sense it even if he didn't have a running formation......! It's like compressing a large amount of gas and sealing it inside an ice cube!
"It's really strange!" Jiang Xingchen then ran the formation, and his feeling was even more obvious, he could be sure that what was sealed in the ice cube was by no means ordinary air.
The little pom-pom and pink were silent at this time, and they both saw Jiang Xingchen's concentration. It doesn't matter how much trouble you usually make, once Jiang Xingchen gets serious, Pink doesn't dare to bother.
As the formation operated, Jiang Xingchen's expression became more and more severe, and he discovered something even more amazing, in those large amounts of gas released, there were actually wisps of vitality. The Yuan Qi is very weak, much weaker than the Yuan Stone, but it does exist zài.
He has a temperature control pressure array, and he can definitely do it by compressing and sealing the Yuan Qi in the ice, but it is difficult to seal other gases, because the formation cannot mobilize other gases! Why does the ice melt so slowly? Is it because of the vitality?
Jiang Xingchen became more and more curious, and the formation was running faster and faster. He found. Although the amount of energy that escapes is small, it is very similar to the amount of energy released within the Yuan Stone. It is not the same as the vitality of zài between heaven and earth.
When the Yuan Stone is broken, the Yuan Qi inside will be violently released and expand sharply. But before the vitality is released, it is almost stationary, and the fluctuation is very small. The same is true for the ice cubes, except that when they are released, the violent fluctuations are not conspicuous because the amount of vitality is too small, but in the ice cubes, they are very stable and the fluctuations are almost non-existent. Could it be that the fluctuations affect the molecular movement and slow down the conduction of heat?
"It's a possibility. My temperature control pressure array can also be done......!
Thinking in his heart, Jiang Xingchen ran the temperature control pressure array to the limit, and the looming runes flashed away on his body, and the pink actually screamed in horror and flew into the air. The little pompom was also frightened, jumped from Jiang Xingchen's shoulder to the ground, and ran to the root of the wall before turning his head, his big black eyes full of fear.
Jiang Xingchen didn't notice these at all. He made a new discovery, and it turned out that it was not the ice that sealed the gas, as he had just imagined, but the gas and the ice fused together. This is because the gases are escaping in large quantities from the surface of the ice.
"This thing must have formed at low temperature and high pressure, otherwise gas and water would not have formed such a state...... But now the external pressure is relatively small, and it is said that this piece of ice. Or that the gas-water compound should have collapsed a long time ago, why can it be preserved for so long. Could it be because of vitality?"
Thinking of this, Jiang Xingchen was ready to change to a material exploration array to continue exploring! But at this moment. A flash of lightning suddenly flashed through his mind, and the whole person was stunned: "Qishui compound, could this be ...... Combustible ice!"
In an instant, Jiang Xingchen's heart turned a huge wave, he had never dared to use the steam engine on a large scale, just because he was worried about destroying the environment of the Star Domain. The demand for new energy is also what he has been desperately needing. If this thing in your hand is really combustible ice, and the gas emitted is methane, then it will be a big deal.
After being stunned for a moment, Jiang Xingchen had no time to consider why the pressure change did not lead to the collapse of the combustible ice. He turned around and ran into the kitchen, took out the velvet and lit it, and then put the ice cubes on it.
"Huh~" The ice cube suddenly burned, and the flames suddenly jumped upward, and then tended to stabilize.
"Hah...... Haha, hahahaha....... "No matter how strong Jiang Xingchen is in his heart, he can't control the joy in his heart at this moment, energy is a big problem that restricts the development of the territory, and he finally sees hope for a solution."
At the kitchen door, Pink and the little pompom quietly poked out their little heads and looked in cautiously. The eruption of the runes on Jiang Xingchen's body just now really frightened them, and even Pink, a twenty-eighth-level divine beast bloodline, had a kind of fear from the heart.
However, when they saw Jiang Xingchen smirking alone at a small fire, they glanced at each other, and they all showed self-deprecating expressions, which was really inferior, looking at the current appearance of the boss, where was it terrifying, how could he be scared like that just now.
"Hallucination, it must have been a hallucination!" said Pink.
Finally, Jiang Xingchen stopped smiling, turned his head and beckoned to the door: "Little pom-pom, come here!"
"Squeak!" The little guy ran to Jiang Xingchen's side, staring at him with big black eyes, looking at him cutely.
"How did you find this thing?" Jiang Xingchen asked.
When the little pom-pom saw it, he was startled, and squeaked on Jiang Xingchen's shoulder. It didn't even know that this thing could be lit, but it felt that there was vitality in it, so it picked up a piece.
"What about you, say!" Jiang Xingchen knocked the little pom-pom on the head.
"Squeak squeak......" The little pom-pom was even screaming and drawing. Jiang Xingchen also gradually understood its meaning.
"It turns out that when I was circling and fighting with Pink, I flipped up from the bottom of the water!" Jiang Xingchen nodded. He had calmed down now, and he wasn't as excited as he had just been. Although combustible ice has been found, it does not mean that the energy problem has been solved.
In the last life, the earth was rich in combustible ice, but it is not clear what the world is like. However, judging from the fact that you can build a biogas digester yourself, it should not be less! Of course, you have to go to survey it yourself.
In addition, mining is also a problem. That thing is either at the bottom of the sea at a depth of several hundred meters or buried deep in the soil of Yongdong, how to dig out. Moreover, although the Arctic Ice Sheet is deserted, if it is really divided according to the sphere of influence, it should belong to the Xuanyuan Heavenly Sect and the Eight Kingdoms. Unlike the vast mountains, where any mine can be contested by its own forces, the ice field is different, and the Qiankun Empire is not next to it.
If there were no combustible ice, the Far North Ice Sheet would be nothing, and no one would want that place, because there would be no way to live. But it's not the same with such an important energy source.
If you want to hide it, it is simply impossible, and the transportation must also pass through the other party's territory......
The more he thought about it, the more problems he felt, Jiang Xingchen shook his head: "I was really happy too early just now!" The only thing that made him happy now was that the combustible ice here was not like the earth, and although the temperature increase would also cause methane to escape, the process was very slow due to the storage of vitality. As for the change in pressure, it seems that it has not had any effect on the combustible ice, and the specific reason is not yet clear, but it is very likely that it is also the reason for the storage of the Yuan Qi, which makes it possible to transport the solid combustible ice back.
"Huh~" Jiang Xingchen exhaled a long breath and said loudly: "Pink, we have to go to the ice field again!"
"Twitter!" Pink flew in, looking very reluctant, just came back, and was about to leave before she could stop.
"Yes, you have to go, no kidding, this is the right thing!" Jiang Xingchen said loudly.
Pink shouted and gestured again, what does that mean the star leader, Tang Tian is not here, who will protect the territory if I go with you.
"You don't have to worry about this, the tofu is back! Ants, beetles, and bees are all here, and no one can threaten us!" Jiang Xingchen had already considered this, in fact, even if he didn't go to the ice field, he wanted to go to the vast depths.
"Twitter!" Pink knew what Jiang Xingchen meant, so she had to nod.
"Okay, let's go, you take a rest, and there are little pompoms!" Jiang Xingchen said and walked out, he had to tell Sù Mei'er.
Pink is jumping and calling in the kitchen, you're too anxious, so let me take a break!The little pom-pom blinked his dark eyes, looking bitter......
When Mei'er heard that Jiang Xingchen was going to the ice field alone, she was very uneasy and offered to let the little cat woman go with her.
Of course Jiang Xingchen wouldn't agree, and it wasn't for a long time, just to survey. With pink to follow, and then to bring crabs, there is no danger at all.
Mei'er couldn't compete with Jiang Xingchen, so in the end she could only nod, and asked with a worried face, and went back to the lord's mansion to prepare clothes for him. Although it has entered summer here, the extreme northern ice sheet is still bitterly cold.
Then Jiang Xingchen went to the research institute again, and told Sù Xianning that the rubber would arrive in a few days, so that she was ready to continue her research, and she had to go to the ice field.
Xian Ning's attitude was the same as Mei'er's, and she didn't want Jiang Xingchen to go. She hoped that Jiang Xingchen could study with her, but she had failed too many times before.
However, when he heard that Jiang Xingchen had discovered a new energy source, Xian Ning was stunned. She specializes in research, of course she knows how important energy is, and she also knows Jiang Xingchen's constant concerns. Without saying a word, he waved his hand and said, "Then go, go and go back quickly!
Called the crab back to the lord's mansion, Mei'er had already prepared things, Jiang Xingchen cleaned up slightly, thought about it, and took out one of the two remaining bottles of dragon blood and brought it with him, and then quietly left. The others Jiang Xingchen didn't inform him, he didn't have that much time, just turn around and let Mei'er tell him.
This time, he took the same route as last time, passing through Great Qin to enter Xuanyuan Heavenly Sect, and then crossing the mountain range and entering the ice field.
The crab soared all the way, and it took six full days for Jiang Xingchen to enter the range of the ice field again! (To be continued...... R527
