Chapter 81 Humanoid Hot Air Balloon

It was rare for Shen Cong to have the opportunity to join the Star Warlock Association, but Cheng Jinzhou caught him out, and he said reluctantly: "Then Xu Gu is a second-level Star Warlock, so you just left him behind."

"He won't be offended." Cheng Jinzhou chuckled, he was worried that he would be fooled into doing experiments.As a doctor of physics who can only do theory, if he is asked to do experiments to test the theory, the result will definitely destroy the theory.The so-called practice test arrangement, in most cases, the test is still people.

"Then you really go to my pawn shop? What are you looking for?"

"Like bulk goods like grain, timber, and coal, your house keeps them at the West Wharf?" Cheng Jinzhou took the grain from his house last time.

Shen Cong asked in confusion: "You want to use grain to do the experiment again?"

"Let's take a look, where can I get the full samples? Bulk items." Cheng Jinzhou's idea was naturally to let the customer service comrades judge for themselves, and just sell them at a high price.

In fact, the amount required is less, so it is not impossible for him to walk over by himself and use the ring's cheating function to take it away, but this is not a long-term solution, and secondly, it will expose his identity. If he can go through normal channels, it is not impossible for him But not afraid to spend money.

It was still sunny outside, and the carriage had already left, so the two simply walked towards the direction of Cross Street.Shen Cong was often in contact with the family's business, and at this moment he mused and said: "The bulk of the goods are all franchised, so it may be difficult to find them all. There are trading houses in several docks."

Cheng Jinzhou said slightly disappointed: "That's almost enough."

If it is in the 21st century, if you find a few trading companies, you can see countless samples. Now it is the era of franchise and monopoly. Even the agents have their own circles. smaller.

Shen Cong thought about it and suggested: "Why don't you go to the chariot and horse shop in the west of the city? Although they have a small number of them, if you find something, it's not too late to buy it. With the scale of the capital, hundreds of shi of grain are still sold out. Got it."

With the scale of the capital of the Great Xia Dynasty, the official use of grain reserves is often tens of millions of stones, and Cheng Jinzhou's little income is the role of a small merchant here.

After confirming the direction, walking was much more leisurely. Shen Cong looked left and right to find a car and horse for transportation, while Cheng Jinzhou looked at the scene on the street from afar.Walking on the ancient streets, Cheng Jinzhou has a dreamlike feeling. If you say that in Shaonan, you feel like you are living outside, while in Xiajing, you feel like you are in a tourist area. The bus parking lot, the treacherous tour guide with a silk belt on his face, the cute liar wandering around...

However, all he saw were nobles and officials in fresh clothes and furious horses, civilians and merchants in plain clothes, servants and servants running around for the master, and——the sound of hunting in the sky.

Like riding an invisible hot wheel, Xiang Xin flew from behind with great momentum.Then, it fell heavily on the ground, the stone floor was smashed to pieces, and the flying gravel caused many people to cry out in pain.

"Are you okay?" Cheng Jinzhou covered his face with his hands and asked Shen Cong in a low voice.

"It should be out of control." Shen Cong said uncertainly, he had heard of many methods of landing for astrologists.

Xiang Xin quickly got up from the ground, then glared at the citizens who dared to look around with embarrassing eyes, and finally turned up his thick collar to cover half of his face and walked over: "I want to go with you guys!" go together."

"Ah?" Cheng Jinzhou didn't want too many things to be known to the Star Warlocks. Their judgment direction was different from ordinary people.

Xiang Xin took out the blank paper Cheng Jinzhou had written before, then pointed to the normal line on it and said, "What you wrote in the article to Xu Gu is different."

Being discovered was also expected, Cheng Jinzhou chuckled twice and said: "Different periods have different judgments."

It doesn't matter how short the different periods are.He had forgotten earlier that the reviewed articles could be found in the association's library.

Xiang Xin probably guessed Cheng Jinzhou's strategy, maybe he didn't, but he said with a silent smile: "I have a few hours every day recently, if you need help in research, you can write to I."

From Xia Jing to the outer peninsula, there are not only the same carriages, horses and ships, but also the teleportation array of star warlocks. However, it is expensive and usually only important letters and messages are transmitted.

Cheng Jinzhou agreed without hesitation, and then said: "I'm going to check out the small shop in the west of the city. It's no different than in the city. I'm afraid it's small, dilapidated and dirty."

"Your young master can go there, but there's nothing I can't do." Xiang Xin was not stupid, and he was aware of what Cheng Jinzhou was hiding.

"I forgot that you are an astrologer." Cheng Jinzhou patted his forehead and said, "Why don't you help us find a carriage dealer and hire a carriage before we go."

They were standing in the city. If they were not prepared, they would naturally have no means of transportation.Just like the small citizens in ancient China, everyone does not pursue time efficiency and so on. The leisurely life completely allows them to walk from one end of the city to the other.

Hearing what he said, Xiang Xin patted his right shoulder helplessly, his body suddenly rose into the air, and then slowly operated the star array, lifting both of them up.

Cheng Jinzhou was startled, and looked down. It was as if he was stepping on the void, and then he rose higher and higher, straight to the sky.

"It's like stepping on clouds." Shen Cong's chances of going to the sky were pitifully small, so he immediately became excited.

Xiao Cheng looked at Xiang Xin curiously and asked, "Did you engrave a new star array?"

As a first-level star warlock, especially a star warlock who has the potential to advance, it is not a good thing to stab too many star arrays in the early stage.

Xiang Xin had been waiting for Cheng Jinzhou to ask, and said excitedly: "Do you still remember my piercing fireball star array?"

"Remember." Cheng Jinzhou nodded immediately. A few hundred contribution points were at the forefront of the first-level star array, and were about as valuable as a mouse among hamsters.

"I couldn't control the auxiliary star array before, but it's different now." Xiang Xin turned his head and gestured with his fingers: "I control the amount of fireballs, then create hot air, and finally limit the range of the hot air. , it can lift heavy objects, and now it can lift three people without any problem.”

Cheng Jinzhou was dumbfounded, looked down at the farther and farther ground and said, "It means that we are human-shaped hot air balloons, er, it should be that there are invisible hot air balloons below us?"

The astrologists have extensive knowledge and know the location of the hot air balloon in Jixi, Xiang Xin smiled and said: "I was practicing just now, so I must be able to use it."

Hearing what he said, Cheng Jinzhou was a little numb, and said stupidly: "Then when we fall, if we hit the ground like that..."

"No, it was the first time I used it just now. Now I'm proficient." Xiang Xin used an extremely worrying assurance method, pointing forward and said: "How far you will fly, you must be sure, don't go beyond and turn back. "

"Why can't we just watch the buildings fly below?" Shen Cong licked his lips and asked, enjoying the condescension.

"The wind is too strong. It consumes too much energy. I can absorb up to 120 star power. If it is below, it will be gone in a few hours." The star power Xiang Xin said is the energy obtained by star warlocks relying on the star array , Good star arrays get more, weak star arrays get less, and the level of the star array has a lot to do with this, but practicality is still one of the key points to consider.

Shen Cong was in a good mood, so he asked, "Isn't it more strenuous the higher you go?"

"There is a very high section in the sky, and the airflow is not so violent." As he spoke, Xiang Xin seemed to deliberately lower the control, letting the three of them blow like a swing. Shen Cong's face suddenly lost all color, and he looked normal. Motion sickness.

Cheng Jinzhou's ability to resist dizziness was acceptable, so he had to grab Shen Cong's shoulders and said hurriedly: "Fly up, fly up."

"How high should it be?" Shen Cong, who was dazed in the air, breathed heavily, looked at his feet floating in the clouds, and shouted worriedly: "It's too high, don't be too high."

"At least 20 miles into the sky." Cheng Jinzhou shrugged.Within 8 kilometers above the surface is the troposphere, where the air flow is infinitely exchanged, while above 10 kilometers is the stratosphere, which is relatively stable, and commercial aircraft of later generations usually choose this altitude.Generally speaking, all artificial flying objects that can take off, except gliders, always like this altitude.

The existence of classmate Xiang Xin is basically an artificial flying object.

From the ground up, the air is getting thinner, but flying is easy, Xiang Xin continued to gather the compressed airflow and said, "I usually choose such a high altitude for long-distance flights. Today I mainly let you feel it."

"You want to practice some," Cheng Jinzhou said, probing his head.

Shen Cong felt terrible, pointed to the west and said: "It should be here, it's time to descend."

As he was speaking, another person floated over from a well-lit place in front of him.

"Is it Xiang Xin Star Warlock? Where are you going?" The other party turned his back to the sun and flew over slowly, which was far more convenient than an airplane.

The scene Cheng Jinzhou thought of was that two planes met in the air, and the pilots opened the windows on both sides, chatting excitedly...

"Go to the West Pier and practice the use of the star array. Where is the Star Warlock Jia Zhen?" Xiang Xin had some difficulty controlling it and could hardly stop.

Another astromancer turned a corner briskly, looked at Cheng Jinzhou and Shen Cong side by side, and saw that they did not have the attire of an astro-manager, he smiled and waved his hands and said, "I'm going to the city, so I'll go down first."

"Okay." Xiang Xin nodded quickly.

Jia Zhen flew forward along the air current. Xiang Xin had just adjusted his position when he saw another astromancer flying by from the outside. Fortunately, the two of them didn't know each other, so there was no need to exchange greetings, just nodded.

One person passed by, another person passed, and the closer they got to the front, the more people there were. It wasn't until the height of the three of them decreased that they lost the opportunity to gather in the air.

Cheng Jinzhou never knew that the astrologists in the Great Xia Dynasty could be as dense as a police station. There seemed to be more astrologists 10 kilometers above the surface than in Xiajing City.

Soon you can see the hazy outline of the river beach ahead, Xiang Xin carefully took out two exquisite range finders from his arms, one pointing at the position of the sun, and the other pointing at the river below, it took a long time Completely sure, carefully activate the star array again.Even Shen Cong could tell that it was an important moment to land, and he asked nervously, "How did so many people fly just now? Could it be that they hit a hole in the street every time?"

"It was the only way to the outer peninsula just now, so there are many talents." Xiang Xin said something that was not in answer to the question, and then shouted: "Be careful——"

The three of them descended rapidly like objects falling from a height.
