Chapter 36 Steam Power
On the top floor of Zhanhai Building in Bihai Villa, Lu Ren was fiddling with the incense burner while listening to the trafficker leader who had fled from southern Xinjiang to report on the situation of the slave hunting group.
"Are you saying that you are the only one left in the entire slave hunting group now?" Lu Ren said in a calm tone.
"Master, all of this is the ghost of that Luo Heng, if he hadn't been a hindrance, we wouldn't have failed. The villain also risked his life to escape from him, so that he has the opportunity to return the cause of the incident to you. After being let go by Luo Heng, the trafficking leader crossed the Nanhua River alone, and his injuries can testify to him. It's just that the situation he reported was slightly processed, and in order to reduce the punishment, he concealed the identity of the slave hunting group, and his return changed from Luo Heng's release to desperate escape.
After listening to the trafficker leader's explanation, Lu Ren walked to the weapon rack and pulled out a blood-colored long sword and gently rested it on the shoulder of the trafficker leader.
"The host, the villain did his best. "The trafficker leader trembled like chaff. If it weren't for the fact that Lao Tzu of the Xuanyin Sect would kneel to you? A mortal would not be able to line up to lick Lao Tzu's shoes, and he would dare to threaten Lao Tzu with a sword?
"If you didn't bring the goods back, you shouldn't come back. Lu Ren chuckled, the blood sword in his hand shook, and the blood in the human trafficker leader's body broke out along the wound and entered the blood sword. The sword is sucking blood. The trafficker leader was horrified, but it was too late, and in an instant, he was reduced to a dried corpse.
After sucking blood, the long sword became scarlet and weird, and the blood returned to the sword master along the hilt. "Looks like you've got a little bit of use. Feeling the true qi that had been filled to the limit in his body, Lu Renshu sighed. The blood of the Blood Sword Keeper, the Yuan Spirit Realm Cultivator, allowed him to break through the shackles and reach the limit of mortals, the Ten Heavens of Martial Arts.
In addition to Lu Ren and the trafficker leader who had turned into dried corpses, there was also a third person in the room, Hezhu. After she returned from Luofu last night to explain the situation to the leader, she was brought to Lu Ren by the leader of the secret agent this morning, and she didn't want to see this terrifying scene with her own eyes.
"Don't be afraid. Lu Ren threw his left hand, and the blood sword automatically returned to its sheath. Then he walked up to Hezhu, hooked her chin and examined her eyes carefully, and then said with satisfaction: "To be able to get the praise of the shadow, it is really unique." ”
"I... I... "My brain was blank, and I couldn't speak. Her jaw trembled and tears filled her eyes to reveal her fear.
Tears that could no longer be held back burst from her eyes, slid down her cheeks, and dripped onto his hands. Frightened, she now regrets leaving Luofu.
Lu Ren, who was in a state of madness, stretched out his tongue and licked her tears along Hezhu's chin, not letting go of the corners of his mouth, nose, and cheeks, not wasting a drop, and finally even put his tongue into her eye sockets to scrape.
The girl is always pregnant with spring, and Lang Jun, who once thought about it for a long time, is actually a perverted and demon-like existence, and Hezhu's heart at the moment is indescribable.
"The taste of fear! delicious!" Lu Ren hissed. Then he tore off the lotus beads that were limp on the ground, and attacked to vent his anger and desires.
How could Hezhu, who was still a virgin, be able to withstand the strange and abnormal Lu Ren, and soon passed out.
Outside the room, the "shadow" let out a long sigh and turned to leave. Lu Ren's "shadow" is the close guard assigned to him by the Xuanyin Sect, and he is also the manager of his intelligence network, with the cultivation of the peak of the Yuan Spirit Realm, and his strength should not be underestimated. It was precisely because of his existence that Lu Ren was able to recruit spiritual monks to work for him. And Lu Ren's existence allowed the Xuanyin Sect to establish an intelligence network that encompassed the entire Lingzhou.
Among the three evil sects, the White Bone Temple is good at concocting corpses and refining skeletons, the Soul Refining Sect likes to play with souls and resentful ghosts, and the Xuanyin Sect is good at intelligence and assassination.
Why was Lu Ren able to cooperate with the Xuanyin Sect? The two identities of the Xiangfu Sect Relative and the Blood God Sword Master were sufficient. The power of the Xiangfu faintly overwhelmed the Liang royal clan, and the Blood God Sword was the legacy of the former Xuan-level sect Blood God Sect, so it would not be an exaggeration to call Lu Ren the successor of the Blood God Sect.
The worldly sects are divided into heaven, earth, Xuan, and Huang. The four major authentic sects and the three major evil sects in the territory of the Liang State are all just yellow-level sects, which are subject to the power of the dynasty. The Xuan-level sect has the strength to manipulate a country and dominate the dynasty, and the two are not the same.
And why is the Blood God Sect called the former Xuanzong? Because it has been destroyed, it was destroyed by the Langya Dynasty.
And why did the Blood God Sect anger the royal family, because the elders of the sect actually took the spiritual root of a prince and transplanted it to his grandson. And this prince is still a real power, so the Blood God Sect was overwhelmed by the army.
The Blood God Sect is good at manipulating bloodlines, and the technique of bloodline transplantation comes from them. And Luo Ying's knowledge of blood transplantation comes from Lu Ren. Let it be calculated in every way, everything is under Luo Ying's control, and Luo Ying is controlled by Luo Heng.
Luojia Workshop, after a round of voting, the position of the owner of the workshop was decided. The winner was a middle-aged blacksmith named Luyo, whose work was a set of gears and two connecting rods, and the machining error did not exceed 0.05 mm, which was far more accurate than others. This precision can be achieved by pure hand, and there is the potential to become a top fitter.
"Master Lu, how did you make these things?" Luo Heng asked Lu Yue in surprise.
"Hui Gongzi, this is mainly due to my tools, I usually like to play with tools when I don't have a job, and I have accumulated some good things over the decades. Luyo returned to his workstation to show his treasure to the crowd. Rows and columns are neatly stacked with thousands of tools, and there are dozens of different styles of files alone.
"If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. Master Lu, you are very wise. Luo Heng praised sincerely.
"Thank you for the compliment, you are really the great wisdom. "In one sentence, I summed up my decades of experience, and there is a level. But why are you still a healer? Isn't that a bad job?
"Master Lu, call a few masters, let's assemble this pile of parts. Luo Heng commanded. I'm afraid you don't know what a genius is, so I'll let you see it today.
Since these parts are all handmade, it is inevitable that there will be errors, but this is not a problem, there are a bunch of masters here, and they will be settled directly on the spot. I'm not afraid of being uneducated, I'm afraid of having a lot of strength, these masters are all martial arts cultivators, black iron ingots are smashed into black iron cakes for you with two hammers, and red copper sticks are wrapped around red copper circles for you empty-handed.
With the cooperation of everyone, the machine was finally assembled before dusk.
"Childe, what is this?" everyone wondered in the face of the big guy who was more than one person tall in front of them.
"It's a steam engine. "That's right, what Luo Heng asked them to build was a steam engine, and it was a very mature design with a maximum horsepower of 150 horsepower. He was going to kick off the industrial prelude to the world. "Ignition. ”
Everyone didn't understand Luo Heng's meaning, but just did as he was ordered. The steam engine is ignited and started, the air pressure in the boiler soars, the high-pressure steam begins to do work, and the gear set speed is getting faster and faster.
"It's moving, it's moving!" "It's amazing!" ”......。 The masters and apprentices present were more or less involved in the construction of this machine, and many of them were intelligent people who saw how it worked.
When the steam engine was made, everyone was so excited that they forgot that they hadn't eaten for a day. Goo-goo... , the protests of the stomach came and went.
"Don't call it, Master Lu, you take everyone to Cuiping Tower, and it's mine how much you eat. Luo Heng said generously. Cuiping Building, the best restaurant in the county, is at least ten purple baht when you enter it.
"Cuiping Tower!" "That's too expensive!" "Are you really going to go?...... , the people in the workshop hesitated. The apprentice can only receive one purple baht a month, and the master is only ten purple baht.
"Then let's change the reward method, the apprentice is ten purple baht each, and the master is fifty purple baht each. After learning everyone's thoughts, Luo Heng changed his words.
"Thank you, Childe!" "Childe is wise!"..., hearing the new reward, everyone shouted thank you.
"Get off work. ”
Everyone left, and Luo Heng was the only one left in the entire workshop. Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, Luo Heng took out a simple lathe that matched it from the source realm. The two-ton lathe was not difficult for Luo Heng to handle, and it only took him half an hour to combine it with a steam engine.
When the two machines were combined and debugged, the owner Lu Yue returned to the workshop with eight masters, who came to work at night. Originally, night guards were generally apprentices, and only three or five people were needed.
"Childe, you haven't left yet?" "Childe, when did you get another big guy?" When the nine people saw Luo Heng and the lathe, they immediately came up.
"You've come just in time. Under Luo Heng's professor, the nine people began to learn how to operate the lathe, and in an hour, they basically mastered the operation specifications of the lathe.
"Stay safe and play for half an hour each. In order to prevent the nine people from competing for this big toy, Luo Heng said.
"Good!" the crowd agreed. The night won't be boring.
Luo Heng, who was dizzy by the roar of the machine, ran to the door of the workshop to avoid the noise, and the nine guys who were tired of it seemed to be enjoying the palace ritual music in the face of this noise, especially the eight guys who poked their heads out and lined up, they were simply fascinated.
Looking up at the sky, night is approaching. At this time, it is time for the people of the sect to get off work. Today is the first day of the sect's selection of disciples, Luo Heng did not go to join in the fun, but came to the workshop to make noise, in order to "fish".
