When he reached home, Ren Baqian couldn't sleep anymore. He turned on his computer and started to search for information on saltpeter.
In the morning, Ren Baqian stretched his body. Tonight, besides looking up information on saltpeter, he also looked up a lot of information on polar bears.
Saltpeter was also known as potassium nitrate. When it was dissolved in water, it would absorb a lot of heat and thus could turn water into ice.
There were many sources of saltpeter. Other than saltpeter mines, it could also be found in the corners of the houses in the countryside and in the fields near the pigsty.
As long as this substance existed in that world, Ren Baqian guessed that he would be able to find it near the beast park.
However, just in case, Ren Baqian decided to buy some to avoid not being able to find saltpeter in the future.
Hmm, not only did he solve the problem of bears, but he also created ice in the middle of summer. Finally, he could prove his "ability." They probably wouldn't drag him out and behead him again, right?
Ren Baqian picked up his phone. Sure enough, it was switched off. He put it aside to charge and went back to bed to sleep.
His mind was thinking about that world and the real world. He felt a little confused.
One day in that world was equivalent to three days in this world. Ten years in that world was equivalent to thirty years in the real world. His lifespan was calculated based on the world he had transmigrated to and fro.
Also, there was a kirin in that world? If he took a photo and posted it on the internet, would it go viral immediately? He reckoned that they would think it was photoshopped.
Thinking about all kinds of things, he didn't know when he fell asleep again.
When he woke up, he looked at the time on his phone. It was 8: 30 in the morning.
There were a few missed calls. Two of them were from Chen Qing and one was from his former colleague.
Ren Baqian grinned. He had been there for a year and was acquainted with everyone. He reckoned that this colleague had called him to pack up his things.
To others, it seemed pretty miserable to be in such a state, but Ren Baqian was already used to it.
After taking a bath and changing his clothes, Ren Baqian went to his previous company to settle his salary and collect his things.
The company was located in a commercial building about half an hour's drive from where he lived.
When Ren Baqian entered, many people saw him. However, no one spoke to him, as if they did not know him. After he walked past, they looked up and exchanged a few glances with the people beside them.
He came to the manager's office and knocked on the door. When he heard someone say "come in", he pushed the door open and walked in.
In the room was a woman in her forties. She was wearing glasses. When she raised her head and saw that it was him, her face immediately turned cold. "You've been absent from work for no reason. You've been fired. Go to the finance department to settle the accounts, then pack up and leave."
Ren Baqian nodded, turned around, and walked out.
The woman in the room was slightly stunned. She didn't expect him to be so straightforward and not say a word. After that, he lowered his head and continued to deal with the documents.
After settling everything, Ren Baqian stood at the entrance of the company and took a look. Then, he turned around and went downstairs.
Just now, when he passed by, he took a look and saw that his seat was already occupied by another person. It seemed like a newcomer. Anyway, he didn't really want his things, so they could throw them wherever they wanted.
There was no hate-provoking plot. Everyone was an adult, and no one would take the initiative to mock you.
To most people, you are less than air. Air is still a necessity, and it doesn't make a difference whether you're there or not.
Ren Baqian mocked himself as he went downstairs.
He found a chemical reagent store and bought 25 kilograms of potassium nitrate. After that, he went to the bookstore and bought a few books about animals. Finally, he went to the veterinary pharmacy to buy some vitamin B, which could treat indigestion. In addition, he saw that the bear was shedding in some places, so this medicine could help.
After preparing all these things, he called Chen Qing back.
"I've been looking for you for a few days. Do you want to go out to play tonight?" Chen Qing asked after the call was connected.
Ren Baqian knew what he meant by go out to play. Going to a bar to have some fun.
Chen Qing was sunny, handsome, and rich. He had always been popular with girls. It was rare for him to return empty-handed when he went to a bar to have some fun.
Most of the girls who went to a bar to have some fun would go with a partner. Ren Baqian's appearance was considered delicate and pretty. At least, others didn't dislike him. Moreover, he was with Chen Qing. Most of the time, he would gain something.
Ren Baqian really wanted to relax. These days, he had been very nervous. Now that he could finally relax, he said, "Alright, you choose the place."
"Alright, I have something on now. I'll hang up first. I'll text you the time and place. "
At night, Ren Baqian waited at the place that Chen Qing mentioned. It was a newly opened bar.
A few minutes after Ren Baqian arrived, Chen Qing also arrived in his car.
"You got a new car?" Ren Baqian raised his eyebrows. Chen Qing used to drive a Buick. Now, he had changed to an Audi Q7.
"Recently, my dad talked to Jiang Nan's dad, and he sponsored this car." Chen Qing laughed.
"Oh, you've met the parents! Congratulations! "Ren Baqian laughed. He was genuinely happy for Chen Qing.
"Therefore, there won't be much time to play in the future. While we still have the chance, let's have some fun." Chen Qing hooked his arm around Ren Baqian's neck, and the two of them walked into the bar.
"Has the date been set?" Ren Baqian asked as they walked in.
"The engagement will be on October 1st," Chen Qing replied.
"Congratulations, congratulations …"
After a while, the two of them sat in the bar. Ren Baqian's gaze was on the wine glass, and Chen Qing was chatting while looking around for prey.
"Those two are not bad!" Chen Qing raised his eyebrows. After a while, he said, "Unfortunately, they have male companions."
When looking for fun in a bar, one must have good eyesight. Being rejected was a small matter. If things went wrong, one might even get beaten up. Ren Baqian had seen such situations many times.
While he was looking for prey, others were also looking for prey.
Not long after, a waiter brought two glasses of wine over. "Sir, it's from table 57."
The two of them looked in the direction that the waiter was pointing at. There were three women at that table. They were in their early twenties and had good looks. One of them raised her glass and gestured to the two of them.
Chen Qing also raised his glass. After the waiter left, the two of them took their glasses and moved to that table.
They introduced themselves to each other. The three girls were all locals and were high school classmates. They were currently studying in another city. Now that it was summer vacation, they had all returned.
Chen Qing was very good at talking. Not long after, he became very friendly with the three of them.
Ren Baqian listened at the side and would occasionally interrupt to ridicule them.
If nothing went wrong, they would have a good night tonight.
However, something unexpected happened. While they were chatting, two groups of people nearby started cursing at each other. This kind of thing happened frequently, so no one paid much attention to it.
However, in less than half a minute, they heard someone cursing and started fighting.
There were about five to six men on both sides. After the fight, the tables and chairs were overturned. Ren Baqian's table was affected as well. He wanted to move back to avoid being accidentally injured.
At this moment, one of the men bumped into Ren Baqian and Chen Qing. Seeing that he was about to crash into Ren Baqian, Chen Qing supported him and gave him a gentle push.
"They are in cahoots. Beat them up!" The men on the other side suddenly shouted and smashed the wine bottles at Ren Baqian and the others.
"F * ck!" Ren Baqian didn't know what to say about such an undeserved disaster.
"It's a misunderstanding. We don't know them!" Chen Qing raised both of his hands as he retreated to show that he didn't have any ill intentions. At the same time, he wanted to explain himself.
"F * ck!" Ren Baqian shouted again. This time, not only did the other party rush over, but one of them even took out a small knife from his pocket and directly stabbed it at Chen Qing.
Ren Baqian subconsciously stood in front of Chen Qing and tried to grab the other party's wrist that was holding the knife. He cherished this only friend of his.
However, Ren Baqian overestimated his speed. The other party's knife stabbed into his stomach before he could react.
Ren Baqian held his stomach and wanted to curse, but the pain in his stomach made him unable to say a word.
"Murder! Murder! "Someone at the side shouted.
When the two groups of people saw this situation, they immediately ran away.
…
When Ren Baqian woke up, he was already in the hospital with Chen Qing by his side.
His stomach was in pain, but he could still speak.
"Are you awake? Are you thirsty? "Chen Qing got up and asked with concern when he saw that Ren Baqian had woken up.
"How long has it been?" Ren Baqian wanted to know how long he had slept.
"More than 20 hours. The main thing is that I was given anesthetics. The doctor said that it's not a big deal and that I just need to nurse my injuries. This time, it's all thanks to you! "
"There's something wrong with those people!" Ren Baqian thought about the scene in the bar and felt that something was wrong. The other party wasn't blind. He had already raised his hand and said that it was a misunderstanding, but they still rushed forward and stabbed him with a knife?
There were also a few other people. Before he passed out, he saw them running away. If there was nothing wrong with them, why did they run away?
It was obvious that these people were after Chen Qing and Ren Baqian.
Ren Baqian didn't usually offend anyone, so their target was obvious. It was definitely Chen Qing.
"I have implicated you this time. I'm sorry. Fortunately, you are fine. Otherwise, I wouldn't know what to do, "Chen Qing said as he pulled Ren Baqian's hand.
"Don't make such a disgusting look." Ren Baqian had a look of disdain. "At that time, I was hot-headed and rushed forward. If not for the alcohol, I would have run as fast as I could. "
Ren Baqian didn't want to say what he originally wanted to say. As long as Chen Qing knew what was going on, it was good that he would handle this matter well.
Chen Qing's father's business wasn't small and he was quite influential in this city. It was impossible for him to watch his son in danger without doing anything.
"True feelings are revealed after drinking!" Chen Qing laughed.
"When can I be discharged?" Ren Baqian asked.
"The doctor said that you have to be observed for a few more days. You don't have much to do recently, so just stay here and recuperate. "
"No, I have to be discharged tomorrow," Ren Baqian said. He transmigrated once every three days, and it had already been 40 hours since then. I have to be discharged tomorrow during the day. Otherwise, I would be scared to death if I suddenly disappeared from the bed. "
"Your wound is still bleeding. If you move around, it will rupture," Chen Qing advised.
"Get me discharged during the day and use a wheelchair to push me back," Ren Baqian stubbornly said.
"Alright, I will ask the doctor. Oh yes, Jiang Nan came over and went back to work after seeing that you didn't wake up. She gave you flowers! "Chen Qing waved a bouquet of flowers at Ren Baqian.
