Ren Baqian pondered. What he wanted to know the most was how Li Fu became the number one blacksmith in the world and how he was on his way to finding a deity.
What would those martial artists in the world, who wished to spend every minute on martial arts and wanted to advance further, think of this?
What would a hardworking martial artist like Ren Baqian think?
Also, Ren Baqian had a fiancée 200 years ago, so he should be at least 220 years old now, right?
The lifespan of a Spirit Wheel expert was generally 180 to 200 years. Even if Ren Baqian lived longer than others, he should be reaching the end of his lifespan at 220 years old, right? Ren Baqian heard that there was a realm above the Spirit Wheel level, but he didn't know if Li Fu had reached that level.
Could Ren Baqian wait for a rocket that would take at least a few decades to be manufactured? If not, Ren Baqian could only make a hot air balloon to fool Li Fu, and his hopes of becoming the number one fighter in the world would be dashed.
At this thought, Ren Baqian whispered, "Senior, to be honest, it will take at least 30 to 50 years to manufacture a rocket. I don't know if you can wait that long!"
"Are you afraid that I don't have enough lifespan?" Li Fu laughed. "I can wait 30 to 50 years. Although I can wait, I don't want to wait that long. For the past 200 years, I have been thinking about how to kill my way to the sky and find that deity. Tell me about your idea! "
"Use a rocket." Ren Baqian found a stone and drew a rough pattern on the ground. "Use the thrust generated by the combustion of the fuel in the bunker to send the rocket into the sky."
"This old man has also thought about it. Continuously beating the air to raise oneself high up in the sky is quite similar to your method. However, even I can only rise 100 meters by beating the air. On the other hand, your idea sounds more feasible, "Li Fu said happily.
"However, like I said, to manufacture a rocket isn't something that can be manufactured in a short period of time. It requires the advancement of the entire industry. On one hand, the manufacturing process, on the other hand, the alloy, and on the other hand, the fuel … "
Ren Baqian explained some of the issues regarding the rocket to Li Fu in detail while paying attention to Li Fu's expression.
In fact, it wasn't easy to manufacture a rocket that could send people into the sky without considering the airtightness and other issues. Without the alloy, how many tons of steel would a rocket that could send people into the sky weigh? How much fuel would be needed to push such a heavy rocket into the sky?
Just solving this problem alone was not something that could be solved in a short period of time. Not to mention other problems.
Following Ren Baqian's explanation, Li Fu's expression became serious.
Although there were many parts that he didn't understand, there were some parts that he understood. After all, he was a blacksmith himself and was a top-notch expert. There were many things that he could comprehend by analogy.
From the other party's description, it was indeed not as easy as he had thought.
"Therefore, if we want to build a rocket, we must promote the technological development of the entire country to a certain level before it can be produced. This will take at least 30 to 50 years, and it will require the strength of the entire nation, "Ren Baqian said.
Li Fu crossed his arms and closed his eyes, deep in thought. According to Ren Baqian, this thing called a rocket was indeed very feasible. However, it would take a long time to manufacture it, and he really didn't want to wait that long.
Ren Baqian sized Li Fu up. It was difficult for him to look at the person in front of him with admiration. He looked at Li Fu as if he was looking at a village fool.
Although Li Fu was indeed the most powerful person in the world, after hearing about his stories, Ren Baqian felt that Li Fu was no different from a village fool in some aspects.
Such a person was actually the most powerful in the world. Ren Baqian wondered how much psychological trauma the heroes of this world had experienced in the past 200 years.
"Why don't you wait in Dayao for some time? Perhaps your smithing skills will be of help at some point. Recently, I have been trying to make a steam engine, but there are still some difficulties that I can't solve. If you can help us with this, we might be able to speed up the progress, "Ren Baqian said sincerely.
As for the steam engine, it could only be made after the situation in Tianjing Basin was resolved. If this expert couldn't wait and captured the leader of the rebel army, it would be a huge gain!
"I need to think about it," Li Fu said hesitantly.
"What else does Senior need to think about? You want to go to heaven, and I want to make something that can go to heaven. This means that Dayao's industry has reached a certain standard, and our goals are the same.
Besides, I'm also very interested in what I can see in the sky. "
"It's too long!" Li Fu shook his head. "It's better for me to go to the end of the Sixty Thousand Mountains to find the whereabouts of the stairway to heaven."
"Senior, this is Dayao, and the Sixty Thousand Mountains are also part of Dayao's territory. In this land, countless people will help you find it with just a word from Her Majesty. It won't be too late for you to go there when you have news. "
"I'm afraid that little girl is going to find trouble with me." Li Fu shook his head.
"If it's because of you that you brought me here, Her Majesty will naturally not pursue this matter after I return.
Her Majesty just wants to see how strong the world's most powerful expert is. If you have nothing else to do, why don't you show Her Majesty your skills? Her Majesty will naturally not pester you anymore. After all, you also need Her Majesty's help to find the stairway to heaven in the Sixty Thousand Mountains. It wouldn't be too much for you to show Her Majesty your skills, right? " Ren Baqian felt that there was a way to fool the world's most rash person. His tone became more amiable, and his attitude became more attentive.
Li Fu thought for a long time before saying, "I'll bring you back."
After saying this, he carried Ren Baqian with one hand, and another gust of wind hit his face.
After a while, Ren Baqian squinted against the wind and could already see the fire in the distance, as well as the noise brought by the wind.
"Li Fu!" The empress was the first to discover the two of them. She shouted and pounced toward them.
"Little girl, I'm not here to fight." Li Fu carried Ren Baqian and spun in the air, dodging the empress. He casually put Ren Baqian on the ground and retreated to a distance.
The empress turned around and sized up Ren Baqian. Seeing that he was fine, her expression eased a little.
However, she quickly became cold again. Her two attacks were easily dodged by Ren Baqian, which was a little hard to accept.
"Your Majesty, don't be in a hurry to fight!" Ren Baqian saw that the empress was about to make a move again and quickly stopped her.
"Your Majesty, both of you are experts in the world. If you fight, it's hard to guarantee that you won't be injured. At this time, quelling the rebellion is more important. Your Majesty, please think twice! Furthermore, Senior has already agreed to show us his moves and broaden our horizons. Why don't you watch from the side? "
The empress frowned. Why did Ren Baqian speak up for Li Fu after not seeing him for a while?
However, seeing Ren Baqian winking at her, the empress knew that there had to be a reason. She snorted and didn't say anything else.
"Senior, we have heard of you for a long time. It's a pity that we haven't seen you in action! Why don't you show us three moves and broaden our horizons? "Ren Baqian turned his head and winked at Li Fu again.
"Fine. Although I'm not good at fighting, I still know a thing or two. "At this time, their positions had changed. Now that Li Fu was the one asking the empress for help, he no longer refused.
