Origin

Although he knew that the Yi people could not catch up with him, Wu Zhongyuan ran fast. What does it mean to have a guilty conscience? That is, he had to leave the crime scene as quickly as possible, the faster the better.

After flying for a while, he suddenly remembered that he had forgotten Li Bie. He stopped and turned around, only to find that Li Bie appeared ten miles away to the west, activating his spiritual energy to catch up.

Seeing that Li Bie was following him, Wu Zhongyuan did not stay and wait, but continued to fly eastward, but the speed was not as fast as before, at least so that Li Bie could see him.

After a while, Wu Zhongyuan left the land and came to the sky above the water. During this period, he had been holding the wick of the oil lamp. When he reached this point, he could no longer hold it. The wick had not been extinguished, and the temperature in his palm had been rising, and it had begun to burn his hands. .

In desperation, they could only change hands. No matter how fast they changed hands, it was impossible to achieve a seamless connection. It was inevitable that there would be light. At this time, there were still a small number of barbarians squatting near the mouth of the sea. Wu Zhongyuan did not notice them, but they looked at them. When I arrived at Wu Zhongyuan, I saw the purple light emitted by the oil lamp to be precise. This thing emits purple light. It is so recognisable. I can tell what it is at a glance. I saw that the ever-burning lamp in the ancestral grave was stolen. It was not a big deal. , one after another grabbed their bows and arrows and shot into the sky.

Due to the long distance, most of the arrows fell due to exhaustion in the middle of the flight. Only a giant arrow with a long rope flew close. Wu Zhongyuan moved sideways for a few feet, easily dodged it, and urged the Qinglong Armor to fly eastwards. .

When they reached the sea, the Yi people had no choice but to do anything to him. Wu Zhongyuan looked back and saw that the Yi people could not shoot him. They started to fire arrows at Li Bie again. Li Bie flew in the air, dodged them all, and flew towards him. .

In just a moment, the wick became hot again, so he had to change hands again. Once he changed hands, the wick glowed again. Seeing this, Wu Zhongyuan complained incessantly. He wanted to dive into the water and use sea water to extinguish the wick, but as soon as this thought came to his mind, He denied it himself. The oil lamp was full of lamp oil. If it was mixed with sea water, it would be unusable.

In desperation, he could only urge Qinglongjia to move quickly north. After changing hands several times, he discovered a pattern. The faster he moved, the weaker the light emitted by the oil lamp when changing hands. After confirming this, he The Azure Dragon Armor was pushed to the limit. The so-called limit was just the limit of his reaction speed. In fact, the Azure Dragon Armor could be even faster.

As the speed increased, there was no time to be distracted and change hands. In the end, I stopped holding the wick and concentrated on speeding up. At the top speed, the light emitted by the wick was very weak and almost invisible to the naked eye.

As it accelerated to a speed that had never been reached before, something strange happened. The roaring wind gradually turned into a low dragon roar. At the same time, a green dragon-shaped air wave appeared outside the Qinglong Armor, rising from mid-air. Flying and sprinting like a blue dragon flying in the wind.

Although Wu Zhongyuan was surprised by the strange appearance of the Azure Dragon Armor, he was not very surprised. The surprise was because he did not expect that after wearing the Azure Dragon Armor, when he moved quickly and reached a certain speed, the outer perimeter of the Azure Dragon Armor would be surrounded by dragon-shaped air waves. It did not feel very strange. The surprise was because he had studied physics and knew that sonic booms would occur when an aircraft flew from subsonic to supersonic speeds. The dragon roar sound emitted by the Qinglong Armor was essentially the sound of a sonic boom, and the dragon-shaped air wave It is also the change in airflow caused by sonic boom.

At first Wu Zhongyuan was worried that Li Bie was too fast and couldn't keep up. Then he thought, forget it, go back to the stone room before Li Bie and let Li Bie run slowly from behind.

Men who like violent driving are not necessarily men, but men who like gentle driving are definitely not men. This lightning-fast speed makes Wu Zhongyuan's heart beat faster and his adrenaline surges. What follows is excitement and excitement. People are excited. When the time comes, he will become bolder, and Wu Zhongyuan is like this at this time. In fact, the current speed has far exceeded his reaction speed, but he is still accelerating, accelerating, and accelerating.

The excitement was real, but Wu Zhongyuan never lost his mind. He knew that he was taking a risk, but he also knew that his risk was not very dangerous, because there were no high-altitude or low-altitude aviation routes at this time.

No matter how fast you fly, you will not hit the plane. Furthermore, the faster the speed, the louder the roar of the blue dragon armor. If you are close at hand, this sound can directly kill people, even if it occasionally happens. Birds passing by from a distance will avoid them early when they hear the soul-stirring roar of the dragon.

People would be unbearable if they were in a state of high excitement all the time. It only lasted half an hour, or maybe less, before Wu Zhongyuan felt tired and gradually slowed down until he could clearly see the scenery in the mountains below.

Because he flew too fast before, he didn't know when he crossed the sea. After the speed slowed down, the wick began to emit purple light again. Wu Zhongyuan was curious and surprised. He flew so fast before and didn't blow it out. What exactly is this thing? What's the origin?

It was not even three o'clock when he returned to Tianchi Volcano. Wu Zhongyuan did not wait for Li Bie outside. He took off his green dragon armor and held the oil lamp and entered the stone room first. He had moved too fast before, and Li Bie was already far behind. , I will definitely not be able to come back before dawn.

After entering the stone room, Wu Zhongyuan placed the oil lamp in front of the furnace. It was only then that he discovered that the baggage was cracked. He examined it eagerly and found that although the baggage had a few cracks, the contents were not missing. Fortunately, he took these iron trees and The arrows were bundled together. If they were scattered, they would have all been lost long ago in the rapid flying state.

The oil lamp emits heat when it burns. I have never worn the green dragon armor, so it feels uncomfortable to get too close. Fortunately, the stone room is a place for smelting metal, and all kinds of metallurgical utensils are complete. After a short observation, Wu Zhongyuan stood up and found a clamp. Use a clamp to hold the wick and pull it out.

The wick is about the thickness of a little finger. I don’t know if it is originally purple or if it is soaked in purple grease. In short, it is purple. When you pull it out a little, the flames will instantly become bigger.

Seeing this, Wu Zhongyuan stopped in a hurry. He had inspected a large number of dragon tendons in the Yi people's stone building before, and had a general understanding of the large tendons of snake creatures. The wick of this oil lamp was very similar to the dragon tendons, and it was probably a dragon tendon. Real dragon tendon.

If he just wanted the lamp oil, he could just pull out the wick and throw it away, but now he wanted to keep even the wick, so he needed to try to extinguish the burning wick.

After a brief pause, Wu Zhongyuan thought of a way. He got up and brought an empty water tank over, placed the oil lamp in it, and took the copper plate cover of the small * to cover it. At this time, people had already begun to use the lost wax method to cast precision lamps. There were a large number of wax blocks in the stone chamber. I took the wax blocks, melted them with fire and dripped them everywhere, and sealed them thoroughly.

No matter how magical something is, it cannot break away from the inherent laws of matter itself. Combustion requires the consumption of oxygen. As long as it is in a vacuum environment, the wick will go out.

This is true in theory, and it is also true. After half a stick of incense, the oil lamp went out, probably because the temperature of the water tank dropped.

Worried about a resurgence, Wu Zhongyuan did not rush to open the lid. He waited for a moment, then broke the solidified wax seal and slowly opened the lid. No purple light was seen, indicating that the oil lamp was really out.

Take off the lid, take the oil lamp out of the water tank, and look at it closely. After it is extinguished, the end of the wick is a little black. I crush it with my hands and it becomes crispy and broken. But the part that I pulled out earlier is very tough. Is it a big muscle? It is easy to confirm that being resilient and resilient is.

After confirming that the wick was indeed dragon rib, Wu Zhongyuan turned his attention to the piece of white metal covering the lamp mouth. Before returning for the first time, he had studied metallurgy. Through naked eye observation, this piece of white metal looked like a nickel alloy. Nickel There are many types of alloys. The most common one is nickel steel alloy, which is commonly known as stainless steel. The biggest feature of this metal is its resistance to oxidation. Using it to seal lamp oil can prevent oxidation and deterioration to the greatest extent. However, this piece of metal is obviously It is not a pure nickel steel alloy, it should be mixed with some other unknown metals.

This piece of metal does not mean much to Wu Zhongyuan. What he cares about is the dragon tendon that serves as the wick. The wick will be slowly worn out during the burning process. The tendon is actually a ligament. It will shrink severely after being peeled off. Different types of animals The degree of ligament contraction is also different. Most of the dragon tendons he examined earlier were between seven and nine feet in length. The common length of bows and arrows is about one and a half meters, which is nearly five feet. The normal ratio of bow and bow string is As long as the bow is, so must the bowstring be.

The wick has cooled down, so I just pull it out with my hand, pull out a little, look down at my palm, the remaining oil on my palm is white, which means that the dragon tendon itself is purple.

After pulling out two feet, Wu Zhongyuan began to get nervous. The damage to the dragon's tendon seemed not serious. It was possible that he was nervous because there was hope. If there was no hope, there was no need to be nervous.

Pull it out again, and there’s still more.

Three feet.

Four feet.

Four feet later, Wu Zhongyuan held his breath and slowed down. He could feel that there were not many dragon tendons left coiled in the oil lamp. It would be a pity if it disappeared at this time.

No matter how slowly he pulled it out, the end of the dragon tendon still appeared. Since the dragon tendon was coiled in an oil lamp before, it was in a bent state after being pulled out. He was not sure whether the dragon tendon was enough. The only thing he could be sure of was that if it was enough, it would be just now. It's enough, if not it's just a hair's breadth.

The most intuitive way to judge whether it is enough is to compare it with a spare bow body. If the length of the dragon rib can be equal to or exceed the length of the bow body, it is enough, otherwise it is not enough.

A layman may think that the bow body is straight, and the size will be reduced after bending, so the bow string can be slightly shorter than the straight bow body. This is not the case, because it also involves the winding and binding of both ends of the bow body, and each end is It takes two to three turns.

The result of the comparison made Wu Zhongyuan break into a cold sweat, not because it was not enough, but because it was just enough, with not even an inch left, and it was so dangerous.

The size is sufficient, but it still needs to be tried if it is not usable. Take two spare arrows, roll one end of each, and try to pull.

pull.

Inject spiritual energy and pull again.

Use all your strength and keep pulling.

Wu Zhongyuan was very nervous at this moment. This eternal lamp had been lit for many years, and the dragon tendons had been soaked for many years. He was very afraid that the dragon tendons would break, but he had to use all his strength and could not deceive himself. At this time, he did not need to use all his strength to pull. , there is a possibility of collapse when facing the enemy in the future.

After pulling and inspecting for more than ten seconds, Wu Zhongyuan slowly lowered his hands and let out a sigh of relief.
