Chapter 3: Merit
The sacrifice didn't end until noon, and Feng Xue returned to Xujiazhuang in an ox cart, finally breathing a long sigh of relief.
The human race in this era is two meals a day, and the so-called fighting for the morning and evening is the morning and evening food.
But this has nothing to do with Feng Xue, he is the owner of the village, he has money, and he has the final say if he wants to eat a few meals.
Let the kitchen make lunch and send it to the dining room, Feng Xue finished eating under the service of the two maids, took a nap, got up and continued to copy books, his day was so dull.
......
In the evening, Feng Xue turned on the faucet and washed his hands that were stained with a little ink, you read that right, it was the faucet, after all, more than two thousand years have passed since he invented the flush toilet in his previous life, if it is so long, the human race has not yet figured out the water pipe system, then it is really a shame.
However, the water pipe system alone is useless, only with the water wheel that can lift the water wheel on the high water tower, and the water purification system at the bottom of the water tower, can the safe tap water system be formed for more than 200 households in Xujiazhuang.
In other realms, there is basically only the mansion of the noble, which can barely supply the daily water of a mansion under the premise of having servants constantly fetching water every day - and the water is not clean.
Stretching her waist with a sense of superiority, Feng Xue thought about whether to call the bedside maid to come over and go to bed early, or continue to study engineering knowledge.
If you can point out the blast furnace technology, you can make glass, steel, and ...... And so on and so forth, a series of cross-era products, of course, if it weren't for the worry of getting merit and spiritual treasures, the steam engine would have been out long ago.
It's also helpless, Feng Xue, a writer of farming literature, remembers how to burn glass, how to burn cement, and how to make steel...... But I have not understood the basis of all this - the blast furnace.
If the furnace temperature is not enough, you will not be able to do anything.
Of course, the temperature of the ancient porcelain kiln can also meet the temperature requirements, but Feng Xue also doesn't know how to build the porcelain kiln, and the cement is just that, how to shape the glass when fired out of the porcelain kiln?
Feng Xue's golden finger is a waste wood, only knowledge has no physical objects, if you want to order a science and technology tree, you can learn it all by yourself, and you can't be like other traversers, you can exchange a few large pieces with a pat of your hand, and directly enter the era of five small industries in small steps.
But it's better than nothing, what kind of bicycle!
Feng Xue opened the character panel, clicked on the engineering skills that only had 23 points, and began to learn.
Some people may be curious about how Feng Xue improved her skills, after all, 20 points of skill only provide 21 points of knowledge, but if you just study, you will never reach 21 points - as for relying on yourself to study and break through, it will take too much time and energy. To put it simply, how long does it take for an ordinary person who does not have any foundation (at most knows the basics such as cooling down the fever to cool down) to be able to perform appendicitis surgery on his own and with textbooks?
But in fact, Feng Xue has a more cheating method, that is, skill appraisal.
Or the example of appendicitis -
An appendicitis operation requires about 25 points of medical skills, and Feng Xue only has 20 points, so she doesn't know how to do this surgery.
Then, he can make a medical judgment and roll a hundred-sided dice (in reality, it is usually replaced by two ten-sided dice), as long as the points are less than or equal to the level of his own skills (such as 20-point skills, throwing less than 20 points), even if the judgment is successful, it will be a super-level play in reality.
And in this performance, Feng Xue is still awake, he can learn the corresponding experience from it, obtain the corresponding knowledge, and when he can perfectly complete the appendicitis surgery without skill judgment, his medicine will naturally rise to 25.
Of course, if the judgment fails, then this person on the operating table will not be saved, but if he has appendicitis this year, he will definitely not be saved, send Feng Xue here, and he can still fight, right?
Just when Feng Xue was swimming in the ocean of knowledge, a voice destroyed his good mood completely-
"Bone ......"
The sound of items rolling was so harsh in Feng Xue's ears, he shrunk his body into a ball and hid under the table almost reflexively, and then opened the instant menu of the character panel, and saw the suddenly extra line of information composed of symbols inside-
【??:?/?】
Seeing this inexplicable character, Feng Xue's back was instantly soaked in cold sweat, and the whole person trembled.
"It's not an auditory hallucination, it's true, and he meowed!" Feng Xue's eyes widened, although this table was a bronze object he had spent a lot of money to make, it still couldn't give him enough security.
It's not that he's all a soldier, it's because what happened to the previous four lives was really unforgettable.
This time the dice did not show a specific item, which means that the decision was lost.
You know, his scrap wood gold finger is not like in the real running group, whether it fails or not, it will at least let you know what you have been voted by KP, even if it is a secret investment, at least know the project.
But if the spontaneous throw of this golden finger fails, it is really not going to tell you anything.
Of course, for Feng Xue, just the sound of the dice was enough to tell him that something bad had happened.
Because he clearly remembers that every death before began with an inexplicable secret throw......
"What happened? Could it be that there is a ground dragon under my Xujiazhuang? No, this is the seaside? Is that a sea dragon?" Feng Xue squinted, but he couldn't ask, he could only shrink under the table, his study was built with the highest specifications, the top was a light wooden structure, and there was no second layer, and the foot was reinforced with soil cement and bamboo tendons, the table was made of bronze, hard and smash-resistant, and there were storage of dry food and clay pots with cold boiled water within reach.
It can be said that even if there is a real earthquake, he who is hiding in this room has a high probability of holding on until someone comes to the rescue, but he is afraid that what will happen next is not just an ordinary natural disaster.
Feng Xue spent the whole night so uneasy, and the next morning, in the eyes of the servants who were a little panicked, she walked out of the room with dark circles under her eyes, finished her breakfast with anxiety, and then saw the housekeeper Xu Fu walking in in a hurry.
Seeing the frowning appearance of the housekeeper with the same name as a certain big person, Feng Xue felt as if a stone had finally landed in his heart, and without waiting for him to speak, he asked directly:
"What's going on?"
"Someone sneaked into the experimental field last night to steal grain seeds, and the person has been caught, it is the farmer in the Zhuangzi......" The housekeeper frowned, his face was full of indignation, the treatment of the farmer in the Zhuangzi was definitely the best batch in Xu State, and even in the entire Great Xia, and there were still people who were white-eyed wolves, it was simply not a son of man!
"That's it?" Feng Xue's tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and the whole person looked a little soft, and then waved his hand and said:
"Punish him to work in the experimental field, and deduct one-third of his field property, compared to this farmer, the leaker should be severely punished, and go to find out who leaked the news. ”
"Yes, Childe. Xu Fu nodded and wrote down, as if he hesitated for a moment, before he suddenly spoke:
"Childe, this hybrid rice has already produced two or three high-yield varieties, why don't you send them down for trial planting?"
"After all, it takes a few more experiments to decide, you forgot the No. 2-2 rice seed the year before last? Only a quarter of it is a high-yielding variety, and the rest are all goods that grow tall and do not bear ears, what if the grain is unstable, and the farmer planted all the goods in the last year? Or a few times, anyway, in recent years, the wind and rain have been smooth, and we are not short of this time...... Feng Xue waved her hand and explained to Xu Fu that hybrid rice is a rather time-consuming project, and it is difficult to really see the results without a group of people investing in a lifetime of hard work.
As for why there is hybrid rice?
This is also a temptation of Feng Xue on the path of merit.
Although there are many ways to accumulate merit, Feng Xue chose the two most painful, tiring and slow to achieve results - agriculture and education, as for why, it is actually very simple:
He was afraid that he would come up with any more meritorious spiritual treasures.
Although Lingbao is a good thing, but with his mortal status, he really can't keep it, and the fourth life is a typical example.
Therefore, he can only choose those industries that are slow to enter and have no specific sustenance as much as possible, such as agriculture, even if there are countless people living in hybrid rice, it is impossible for heaven to turn the rice ears into successful De Lingbao, at most, that is, to make the experimental field of cultivating rice become a bumper harvest year after year, so that there is no need to worry about someone killing people and taking treasures.
Otherwise, with his identity as a former Taneda writer and the invention skills of 77, he would not dare to say that the electrified society would be electrified, but at least it would be an era of steam when trains were all over the place!
The reason for the roll of the dice was already known, and Feng Xue's spirit was also relaxed, however, just as he was about to go back to make up for sleep, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the porch, and then, a familiar voice was heard shouting:
"Oh no! Zhang San was arrested for committing a crime!"
..........................................................................................
ps: Running group knowledge, in the running group, sometimes KP (host/keeper) will inexplicably throw a few dice, this is the so-called dark casting, most of the information that should not be known to the PC (players), such as how long does XX have to come back, what happened to a certain NPC, etc., generally speaking, as long as the dark cast, it will not be a good thing for the PC, so that the old running group players, regardless of Diao Min or normal people, will panic when they hear the dark cast, and even gave birth to the stalk of the glorious eight consecutive dark casting. By the way, psychology is often secretly cast, that is, you use psychological skills to see if a person is lying, kp casting, after the cast, he only tells you whether you think the other party is lying, but does not tell you whether your skills are successful.
In this book, all the dice thrown by Feng Xue and failed by the system will become dark throws, this is for the sake of rationality, after all, reality is not a game, for example, the system casts a listen, even if it doesn't, Feng Xue will realize that something is close at this time.
