Real Cthulhu Running Game

Chapter 1996: Missing arms and legs

   Didn’t they agree to wait for Yin Enjie to get married before going to Tieshan Village?

Looking at Liu Xing who looked puzzled, Huo Zijun said with a smile: "Don't worry, leader, we don't plan to go to Tieshan Village today, but because of some experiments, we have to build a shed outside Tianshui Town for research, so this I'm moving now."

  Liu Xing nodded, and guessed: "Oh, it seems that you are going to do some dangerous experiments? That's why you went outside to set up a temporary laboratory?"

Before this, Liu Xing also heard that Huo Zijun and others were in the test site in Tianshui Town, and there would often be some sounds that made the neighbors feel uneasy, such as "crackling", "boom boom" and so on, so before Meng Fugui He once asked Liu Xing if he wanted Huo Zijun and the others to move, because the labs of Huo Zijun and others were originally on the outskirts of the camp, but now with the arrival of NPCs, the location of the lab has gradually become the central area.

  Although the surrounding buildings are still a certain distance from the laboratory, but now there is an additional burning bonus of dryness and dryness, and these buildings are all wooden structures, it will be troublesome if they catch fire.

  So it is also time for Huo Zijun and others to move the laboratory to a safer place.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing continued: "So is there anything I can do for you? Now that there are still some businesses outside, if you need any special experimental equipment, please tell me directly. Someone sent the things back before coming back."

  In Liu Xing's impression, all kinds of experimental equipment needed for chemical experiments are almost professionally customized, even ordinary-looking glasses and the like.

"It's okay, we will make those simple experimental equipment by ourselves, because you know that the precision of chemical experiments is very high, if some liquids are one milliliter or one gram less, the results of the experiments may be very different There may even be danger, so now we only trust the experimental equipment we made... After all, you should be very aware that the weights and measures in the martial arts module this time are somewhat different from the real world, because your character cards are all the same. A famous doctor." Huo Zijun said seriously.

  After Huo Zijun’s reminder, Liu Xing remembered that the weights and measures in the martial arts module this time are indeed very different from the real world, or it can be said that they are using ancient weights and measures.

For example, the idiom "Half catty eight taels" expresses the meaning that half a catty equals eight taels in terms of weight at that time, that is to say, one catty at that time was equal to sixteen taels, so this reflects the difference between the weight unit at that time and the present , Directly eight taels became five taels, which sounds like it was almost reduced by half, and the "jin" in Xinlong Empire was defined as sixteen taels, and at the same time, one tael was equal to one hundred grams, which is It is said that a catty in Xinlong Empire is equal to a catty and a half in the real world and a little more.

Then there is the question of whether the classic "stone" is read or single, and the weight represented by the "stone" itself has different opinions in different dynasties, so the "stone" in the Xinlong Empire is similar to that in the Han Dynasty, about It is equal to sixty catties in the real world.

Finally, it is about the measurement method of liquids. In ancient times, buckets were generally used for weighing, so Xinlong Empire also put a set of three buckets in each town, which is the so-called super large cup, large cup and medium cup. , respectively approximately equal to the current five liters, one liter and five hundred milliliters.

  As for the so-called small cups, they only exist in the folks. They are usually a small funnel used by taverns to serve wine to guests. This is about one hundred milliliters, which is two taels of wine in the real world.

  Of course, if you insist on arguing, Erliang wine is actually more than 110 milliliters, because the density of wine must be greater than that of water.

But this is not the point, the point is that although the new dragon emperor arranged for many famous craftsmen to make this set of standard buckets, everyone knows that there will be some errors in the items made by hand, and these standard buckets are all made of wood. After all, there is no stainless steel in the martial arts module this time, so it is easy to rust if you use metal to make a fight, not to mention that the Xinlong Empire was still in a stage of waste, so there was so much metal that could be wasted when " Display" on the standard bucket?

Therefore, things made of wood are prone to deformation, especially the special shape like a bucket. Therefore, Liu Xing also feels that the standard bucket in Heshan County may have an error of about 10%, and such a Errors are chemically unacceptable.

And the standard bucket does not have any standards, which means that it can only be relatively accurate when it is full of things. As for numbers like 200 milliliters and 438 milliliters, it is impossible to measure at all, or The error will be very large.

  So Huo Zijun and others really need to make their own experimental equipment. After all, they don't want to entrust their lives to others, and the others here are also two-handed.

"So leader, please send a few more people to help us clean up the venue. After all, there are so many weeds that can't be cleaned by just a few of us, and besides building a shed, we have to move some things there." Huo Zijun said .

Liu Xing agreed without thinking about it, and arranged for Ding Kun to bring a few people to help, because the hunting team led by Ding Kun should be the most idle now, after all, there is no prey worth mentioning found around here. , let alone Warcraft, so the hunting team can only do odd jobs everywhere.

Just after Ding Kun left with Huo Zijun and others, another player came over and said to Liu Xing: "Leader, a lot of dead fish came from the upper reaches of the river, and these fish look very strange. They are all missing arms and legs."

Hearing this sentence, Liu Xing immediately brought Zhang Jingxu and others to the river. As the player said, there are a lot of dead fish with missing arms and legs floating on the river today, which looks like It's someone eating a buffet, and everything feels like it's thrown away after one bite.

  Thinking of this, Liu Xing said: "Anyone of you will help me inform Yu Lei, and say that I need him to accompany me to the upstream to have a look!"

  Although the fishery resources of the Xinlong Empire are very rich, no one would waste food like this, so Liu Xing wondered what happened upstream, such as a group of bears catching fish by the river to eat?

Liu Xing remembered that he had watched a documentary before, which said that the salmon would pass by the territory of the bears when they returned to swim, so the bears at this time faced countless food in the river, and they began to swim in a year. The happiest time of the year, because at this time they can really eat a salmon and throw a salmon, so they will only eat the most delicious part of the salmon, and then discard the salmon behind them like a shoe.

   After all, the bear does not have a refrigerator.

   So looking at the dead fish on the river, Liu Xing felt that they encountered some powerful predators in all likelihood, so they became like this.

   "Do you need us to accompany you?" Baihecheng asked.

Liu Xing shook his head and replied: "Forget it, if you follow me in the past, if you are really in danger, then you can do nothing like me, so in order to prevent us from knocking others into the river when we turn around and run away, we It's better not to go together."

   "Yeah, there doesn't seem to be any decent roads upstream, so it's okay for one or two people to walk there, but if there are too many people, it's easy to go wrong."

  Zhang Jingxu took out a few talisman papers from his arms, and said with a smile, "This is the talisman I drew in the past two days, and it can still be more or less effective, so you just stay here, leader."

  Liu Xing took the talisman paper, turned around and headed upstream first, and Yu Lei soon came to Liu Xing's side.

   "What's the situation? I've never seen it before, let alone heard of such a scene."

Yu Lei said with a puzzled look: "It seems that these fish were bitten by some kind of creature, and then thrown back into the water again, so it's like playing around, not like a normal fish." Even if it only takes one bite of so many fish, it will be full even if it is a tiger or a bear, so is this a new monster?"

Liu Xing nodded, and then pointed to the dead fish that were still flowing down the river and said, "Brother Yu, look at the number and density of these fish. It stands to reason that these fish floating on the water flow along the water. Go forward, so as long as they don’t bump into anything when the river turns, their speed towards the downstream is almost constant, which means that the unknown creature that is eating upstream is very fast, it can be said that it is eating, Catch it! So we also have reason to suspect that this may not be one, but a group!"

Hearing what Liu Xing said, Yu Lei thought for a while before he said: "I remember that after walking about one kilometer forward, this river will turn a corner, and there happens to be a river beach there, so the water flow there will Slow down, so there's a good chance that what we're looking for is there."

   "Then we have to be careful, if this thing is also going downstream, then we may encounter it unexpectedly!" Liu Xing said seriously.

   Yu Lei nodded, and didn't say anything more, but handed Liu Xing a dagger that looked very sharp, and then walked ahead to open the way.

Not long after, the two of Liu Xing came to the river beach, and saw many fish still jumping on the river beach, and many of these fish lacked arms and legs, and they jumped a little bit. Let Liu Xing scalp numb.

   Apart from this, no other figure was seen.

"Fish, I remember that a famous chef once cut off all the meat from its body. As a result, the fish head can still swim in the water with the bones, but this can only last for a while, so this fish-eating The unknown creatures should have just eaten and drank enough to leave."

Yu Lei took Liu Xing to the river beach after confirming that there was no danger around him, "It seems that this guy caught all the fish first, then he just took a bite here and threw it away, and then left after eating and drinking. Yes, so if this guy is a monster, then it is ready to settle here; but now there is good news, that is, judging from the traces left on the scene, the instigator of all this should have acted alone, so we There is only one enemy to face."

"But the bad news is that this possible monster is less than two kilometers away from Sweetwater Town, so this means that it may wander around Sweetwater Town at any time, and may attack nearby residents. "Liu Xing said with a frown.

For Liu Xing, this is a big bad news. After all, if this is really a monster, then the distance of two kilometers is the same as when I used to go to the toilet after class. I just took a few steps to Tianshui Town. At that time, even if it didn't do it directly, it would scare the NPCs enough, because in the eyes of NPCs, Warcraft is an invincible and terrifying existence.

Therefore, if the alliance cannot solve the threat posed by this monster in a short period of time, then the NPCs in Tianshui Town may want to move again. After all, the monsters have come to your gate, if you don’t run away I'm afraid it will become a ration.

  Thinking of this, Liu Xing and Yu Lei checked all kinds of suspicious traces on the river beach, trying to determine the general situation of the target.

Soon, Yu Lei, who had more professional knowledge, came to a conclusion, "If the target is a monster, then its size is not too outrageous, it is about the same as an ordinary tiger, and it also lands on all fours. Yes, so being able to catch so many fish in a short period of time means that it is very fast, and it is fast and ruthless! But what is interesting is that there are no claw scars on these fish, so this point is worth deliberating gone."

Looking at Yu Lei who was a little confused, Liu Xing said subconsciously: "Could it be that someone is pretending to be a ghost? If it is a monster or a real tiger, they will cause damage to the fish during the process of catching the fish, so it is impossible to be so intact! So is there someone trying to play a prank, so playing tricks here, trying to scare us out of Sweetwater?"

"You mean those people who burned Tianshui Town back then, they have been living near this Tianshui Town, so now that you see Apeng and you are going to rebuild Tianshui Town, so you want to use this method to drive you away Walk?"

Yu Lei shook his head and said seriously: "Ah Peng, your idea is indeed reasonable, but the question is why these people have stayed here for more than ten years? If this is the case, then they have There is a better chance to attack you! And I noticed a detail, that is, there are some unnatural water marks on the river beach, it looks like someone is splashing water here, you should understand what I mean."
