Chapter 54 - Flying
“Mr. Qin, Mr. Qin. The old man is here.” A voice from a distance reached Shang Wen’s ear.
Shang Wen took a look.
“Elder Xi. How did you come. So far,” Shang Wen said, helping him.
“Hey, it’s okay, it’s okay,” said Xi Lao, waving his hand with a smile.
“This is King Qin’s order to send some skilled craftsmen to the north. I have nothing to do in Xianyang. I am here. Come, I see if I can help you.” Elder Xi said happily.
“Why are you that.” Shang Wen quickly helped Xi Lao.
“Although the old man is old. But the heart is not old.” Xi Lao said with emotion.
“Yes, yes, my heart is not old.” Shang Wen helped Xi Lao to quickly go to rest.
The next morning, as soon as Shangwen woke up, he saw Yinger standing at the door of the tent. His eyes were flushed.
“Mr.”
“How…” the two said at the same time.
“Let’s talk about it first.” Shang Wenqian let it.
“Sir, we have already finished the thing you asked to do. Go over and take a look. If it’s not good, we will change it.” Yinger whispered.
“Look at your eyes, I haven’t slept all night. Okay, I will go and have a look.” Shang Wen said.
The two came to Yinger’s residence. I saw that the designed airbag has been placed on the ground. The overall effect is almost the same as the one designed by myself. Shang Wen walked in quickly. Picked it up and looked at it.
The pins are not ordinary dense. On every road. There are five ways. Such a large amount of engineering. It all depends on these weak women. I really don’t believe it. Shang Wen couldn’t help shook his head.
“Why, sir, isn’t it appropriate? The slave and maid will change it now.” Ying’er saw Shang Wen shaking his head and said.
“No, no. I just didn’t expect it. You weak women. I rushed out overnight. It’s hard to imagine. This is a miracle. A miracle.” Shang Wen said with emotion.
“Sir. This is what the slaves should be.” Yinger said with a smile.
“Okay. You stayed up all night too. Hurry up and rest. Eat some food. I’ll try it out.” As he said, Shangwen began to call for people outside.
“Here.” Ying’er said with the weak women.
“No need to be polite. Hurry up and eat and rest.” Shang Wen said again.
On an empty meadow. Several people gathered around the airbag.
“Fire up again.” Shang Wen said anxiously.
A soldier quickly refueled. The fire was a lot violent all at once. The airbag just got up at the entrance. The rest of the place. Nothing happened.
“Add more.” Shang Wen said.
“Can’t add more. Add more. The iron rings are all red.” said the soldier.
“Okay. That’s it.” Shang Wen said dejectedly.
How could this happen. Could it be that something went wrong. The airbag cannot be inflated. Is the firepower too small? Shang Wen hugs his arms. One hand is holding his chin and thinking about the problem.
“Shangwen, I don’t know what you are doing. But I think. It’s not right to do this.” Xi Lao said from the side.
“Oh. Xi Lao, what do you think?” Shang Wen stopped thinking and asked.
“I think. It should be a shelf. Lined inside. That’s much better.” Xi Lao pointed to the airbag and said.
“It can be. But the weight.” Shang Wen said while looking at the airbag.
“This is no problem. I made it with bamboo. The cut is very thin. Very light. That’s fine.” Xi Lao said.
“I’ll try this. Then I will trouble you.” Shang Wen hesitated, but considering the advantages of the shelf, he agreed.
“Hi, old man, go make a stand, and I’ll improve the fire-breathing equipment.” Shang Wen said.
“Okay, okay.” Elder Xi said happily.
Increasing the fire-breathing equipment requires a certain amount of oxygen supply. Can’t just cheer.
And to provide it in a short time. What should I do? Shangwen thought while walking.
Yes, using the same principle as a pump. Combine oil and gas. Compress one piece to the spout. In this way, a large flame and high temperature can be generated in a short time. Persistent. Gears can be used. This will be gradually improved later.
Thinking of this, Shang Wen immediately found Xi Lao. I told myself a preliminary idea.
After listening to this whimsy. Xi Lao did what Shang Wen meant. Was pondering for a day. Finally saw the real thing.
A long big bamboo tube. A lever is attached to one end. When the lever drives the air plug downward. A certain amount of oil is mixed with air into the bamboo tube. Then began to compress upwards. at this time. All of a sudden the fire. There was a big fire “boom”.
Look at the fire that burst into the sky. Shang Wen smiled happily. Xi Lao was taken aback.
Since all this is done, it is already midnight. Shang Wen is still thinking about experiments. But it seems that it is no longer possible. I had to go to bed and rest.
The next day, Shang Wen got up before the sky was bright. Shangwen didn’t fall asleep all night yesterday. excited.
The soldiers beat Hache. Moving reluctantly. Shang Wen can do nothing.
Several soldiers carried a behemoth and moved to the experimental site. The weight is not very heavy. Four people did it easily. Consider the characteristics of bamboo. Shang Wen still asked more than a hundred soldiers to carry it. But the volume of the airbag is too large. It’s as high as three stories. The length is about seven feet. This is what they said, Shang Wen doesn’t know how long this length is.
Put it on a makeshift wooden platform. Set up the air inlet. Shang Wen refueled himself.
Shang Wen shook his lever warmly. The fire, “whooping up”.
Many people saw such a fire and thought it was on fire and came to fight the fire. But he was stopped by someone who knew the inside story.
The fire started to increase. The airbag is slowly rising. The big basket where Shangwen was riding. Begin to lift slowly.
The onlookers Xi Lao were a little surprised, but more of them were delighted. Yinger also saw so many people walking outside. Come out with those sisters to have a look.
I saw the thing called an airbag that I had sewn was flying. As for Mr. Qin, he was shaking his handle and something hard.
Ying’er exclaimed, “It’s flying.” The hot air balloon was already twenty steps away from the ground. And it’s still rising.
With Ying’er’s exclaim. All the talents were relieved from shock.
“Oh.” A sound. Everyone started pointing to the flying hot air balloon and said.
“It’s flying.” “It’s flying.” For a while everyone began to yell.
“It’s flying. It’s really flying.” “It’s flying to the sky. It’s flying to the sky.” Everyone began to cheer.
Meng Tian hurried to hear the movement of everyone. Before dismounting, I saw the hot air balloon flying up. Suddenly shocked. Almost pulled out the saber.
“This guy is too god. He can even go to the sky. It’s just god.”
