Wuji City. Ren Baqian stood in front of the window and looked down at this unique city.
The city was deserted, but it was gradually becoming more lively.
It had been more than a month since his first visit, and the number of people on the streets seemed to have increased.
The most direct observation was that there were nine people sitting on top of a bus that just passed by.
The last time he saw it, there were at most seven people.
His injuries from two days ago had mostly recovered, and he could at least walk on his own. Black mud cream and bone healing cream were always available in the palace and on Earth.
These medicines were very expensive for ordinary people, but they weren't a big deal for him.
Behind him was a frosty lady who was as androgynous as Shen Feng. If it weren't for her long hair and more developed chest muscles than Ren Baqian's, he could even see her as a man.
Ren Baqian had to admit that some people could always arrange such an assistant to be by his side. At the very least, there was nothing to question about her resume and ability.
However, it had to be said that such an assistant was the safest.
If he were to get a beautiful one, Ren Baqian couldn't guarantee that she would live for more than half a year!
The empress was sometimes magnanimous, but at other times, she was also very jealous!
Especially after watching so many TV series!
It had to be said that TV series were the root of all evil!
This time, the assistant's name wasn't androgynous and didn't match her appearance at all.
Lin Xiaoyu!
"She's back at work. She seems to be in a much better state than before. "
Lin Xiaoyu's voice was a little hoarse. It seemed like she had been selected from her appearance to her voice.
As she spoke, Lin Xiaoyu looked at Ren Baqian's back with a little curiosity in her eyes.
She knew about Qi Jiayu as Shen Feng had told her about it.
As for how they both ended up jumping off a building, she didn't know.
However, the hole that Ren Baqian smashed gave her a shock. Although it was a flower bed, it was more than half a meter in, and only his legs and hip bones were fractured. This was quite shocking. One had to know that it was 68 meters tall.
She was also curious as to why Ren Baqian jumped down from there. Just to save that woman? That was surprising to him.
From the information she received before coming here, this person in front of her didn't hesitate to kill people.
"Got it. You can go now," Ren Baqian said without turning his head.
"Should we withdraw the people from the past?" Lin Xiaoyu asked with a bit of selfishness.
However, Ren Baqian didn't care and simply said, "Withdraw a portion of them and ensure that she's alive. Let her do as she pleases."
After Lin Xiaoyu left, Ren Baqian rubbed his eyebrows. After going around in a big circle, everything had returned to normal.
Forget it, if she wants to stay there, then so be it.
…
When Ren Baqian returned to Dayao, the empress revealed a puzzled look the moment she saw him. After scrutinizing him for a while, she frowned and asked, "What happened?"
"I found something fun!" Ren Baqian smiled.
"Bungee jumping, Your Majesty, have you heard of it?"
The empress's expression softened a little, and she said with some disdain, "Boring thing."
Naturally, she knew about bungee jumping, which was to tie a rope and jump down from a high place.
The problem was that she wouldn't die even if she jumped down, so why would she think that tying a rope to her feet would be fun?
To her, it was even worse than bumper cars!
At least there was some skill involved in bumping cars!
"I don't know if I can build a platform that's 150 meters high outside the city." Ren Baqian was eager to give it a try. When he jumped down from the rooftop that day, the excitement of weightlessness and acceleration was pretty cool!
If he hadn't sped down and thrown Qi Jiayu when he was a few meters away from the ground, he wouldn't have suffered such serious injuries. He estimated that jumping down from about 100 meters would be the same injuries he sustained.
As for a height of 150 meters, it would be dangerous for an Earth Wheel expert unless he had specialized in leaping skills.
"Boring!" The empress curled her lips and ignored him.
Ren Baqian spread his hands. The empress wasn't interested, but he was.
He hadn't thought about this before, but this time, he suddenly felt that it was quite fun!
In addition to bungee jumping, there were also parachuting and hang gliding. He should try them when he had the chance.
However, he didn't have the time to build a bungee jumping platform for the time being. The most important thing now was the internal combustion engine research institute.
Now that he hadn't even used the steam train, it seemed like a big leap to research the internal combustion engine.
However, the first gas internal combustion engine was manufactured in 1860, and the first four-stroke internal combustion engine appeared in 1872.
Without Ren Baqian, someone would probably find a way to reduce the size of the steam engine in 10, 20, or 30 years. However, he couldn't wait that long.
With the current manufacturing level, it was completely achievable. The only thing missing was someone proposing this direction.
Moreover, the biggest problem limiting the internal combustion engine was fuel, which had been solved long ago.
Now, the first batch of sunflowers was about to mature. In two months, the first batch of peanuts would mature as well.
Ren Baqian was going to use biodiesel as the basis for this world's fuel.
The next day, a separate small courtyard not far from the school's backyard was officially opened.
This was the so-called internal combustion engine research center. Every day, in addition to a specific group of craftsmen, there was also a group of senior students in the fourth grade. Graduation in three years had been delayed to three and a half years.
This internal combustion engine would be their graduation thesis.
In addition to being busy with various matters, Ren Baqian also took the time to make a batch of behind-the-scenes footage. This group of simple-minded students had done a lot of the simple-minded things they had done over the past few years, and he had conveniently filmed a lot of them.
He was going to show it to them when they graduated.
Such a public execution would definitely be a lifelong memory for them.
The first movie in Dayao was made up of the black spots of these silly students!
…
"Hey, where's that Ning fellow?"
Ren Baqian had just finished his lecture and returned to his office when someone blocked the door. The smell of roasted sweet potatoes drifted in.
"Oh, you're still thinking about him? I couldn't tell! You're old but young at heart! "Ren Baqian teased.
"Nonsense. Do you think I don't know that he's a man? Then, he made him look neither human nor ghost! "Li Fu cursed while gnawing on the sweet potato.
"Then why are you still looking for him?"
"Nonsense. He still owes me money!" Li Fu rolled his eyes. "I only look for him when I need it. Who would have thought that he would suddenly disappear?"
"How much do you need?" Ren Baqian asked with a smile.
"30 taels of silver!" Li Fu gestured with his fingers. This was the money from their business partnership. He had expended a lot of effort while that fellow sold a few iron trousers. In the end, he actually ran away with the money. It was really hateful!
"Tsk, tsk!" Ren Baqian exclaimed in admiration. This world's number one expert was really down to earth for a few dozen taels of silver!
Who would believe this?
However, Li Fu never had the awareness of being the world's number one expert. Otherwise, he wouldn't have kicked people's testicles every day.
"You won't be able to get this money back! He won't be coming back! "Ren Baqian said leisurely." However, I have a good job for you. Do you want to hear about it? "
"Not interested!" Li Fu refused without even listening.
He was the world's number one expert. If he wanted to make money, people would come to his door as long as he opened his mouth.
He wasn't interested in doing anything for Ren Baqian.
As for the 30 taels of silver, it was different. This was his hard-earned money!
"About the origin of the human race, the causes and consequences, and another vast world!" Ren Baqian said leisurely.
"Oh, you mean those monsters, right?" Li Fu sneered with a look of indifference.
"You know about them?" Ren Baqian was a little surprised!
