Datang Longya

Chapter 504
The height of the basket prevented the pig from turning over. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the pig, everyone started to build a fire on the spot, and used the earliest "blower" to send hot air into the hot air balloon.

At first, the sphere of the hot air balloon was still half dead.However, as the number of tubes for transporting hot air increases, the hot air balloon gradually becomes more and more bulging until it is completely round.

The round sphere spun and rose up!

When the sphere reached the top of the basket, Gongshu Li said excitedly: "Light it up!"

The pump near the basket turned the valve, and the gasoline blowtorch began to send out oil and gas, but occasionally a string of liquid gasoline appeared, indicating that it was still incomplete.

However, it is the Tang Dynasty right now. To be honest, it is already very good for Gongshuli and the others to be able to produce the earliest gasoline blowtorch. Such a small mistake is nothing.

Gasoline blowtorches were ignited, spewing fire upwards.

Feeling the flame above his head, the fat pig in the basket howled.

However, it is destined to be irresistible.

In the eyes of everyone, the basket containing a fat pig moved!
It's moving again!
Rise off the ground!
Seeing this scene, Gongshu Li laughed loudly, and said to the members of Gongshu's family by the basket: "Okay, remove the sandbags! Get ready to release the tying rope!"

The sandbags that fell on the edge of the basket were removed one by one, and each time a sandbag was removed, the hot air balloon would rise a few points.

This is about to succeed!

Until the people on the ground could no longer reach the basket, everyone grabbed the rope and waited to see how high the hot air balloon could fly.

Ten feet, fifty feet, hundred feet.
Until the tether rope was about to end, the hot air balloon had no problem.

It's okay, it doesn't matter.

important!This hot air balloon is flying!

It flew up with a fat pig that weighed almost as much as a person!

"It's really flying! Hahahaha! Hahahaha!"

After Gongshu Li laughed for a while, everyone was caught off guard and collapsed.

Leng Feng was the closest, so he quickly reached out to support the old man.

The old man wasn't dizzy, just a little confused.

The dream he had since he was a child has finally come true now that he is about to die. This incident has had a great impact on him.

Gong Shuli took a few breaths before standing up again relying on his own strength. Looking at the hot air balloon in the sky, he smiled slightly: "Duke Xi, next time, let the old man do it himself."

boom!
Before Gongshu Li finished speaking, the hot air balloon in the sky exploded.

No, it should be said that the gasoline blowtorch of the hot air balloon blew up.

In the final analysis, its seal is not good enough. Fortunately, it has persisted until now before it explodes. If it explodes on the ground, it is estimated that many people will be injured.

The exploding gasoline blowtorch brought a lot of flames, splashed around, and even ignited the ball of the hot air balloon and the rope hanging the basket.

if someone is on it
Seeing the hot air balloon catch fire, Gong Shuli yelled at those who were holding on to the rope: "Hurry up and pull the hot air balloon down! Pull it down and put out the fire!"

The old man's concern is messed up. Although the cost of the hot air balloon is high, pulling it down now is useless.What's more, the rising power of the hot air balloon is not something these few people can resist.

Leng Feng pressed the old man's shoulders, and said to everyone: "Let go, we don't want this hot air balloon, it costs some money, let's make another one!"

Hearing two completely different orders, everyone still chose to believe Leng Feng's words and let go of the restraining rope in their hands.

Losing the power underneath, the burning hot air balloon rose higher and higher.

When the people below saw that the hot air balloon was only about the size of a washbasin, the rope between the basket and the sphere was the first to burn.

The big fat pig in the basket screamed and fell down.

However, it was carrying a parachute, and the open end of the parachute was tied to the basket. The fat pig didn't fall very high, and the parachute's umbrella body was activated.

But
Seeing that the parachute opened in the sky, but it didn't have any effect, Leng Feng was in a hurry and shouted to everyone: "Run! Be careful of being hit by a pig!"

If someone is crushed to death by a big fat pig falling from the sky, he will really be famous through the ages for his strange death method.

Leng Feng and Li Chengqian set up Gong Shuli, and everyone frantically started to flee.

After an unknown amount of time, the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground
Looking at the hot air balloon that was still burning high in the sky, Leng Feng felt ashamed to look at the tragic death of the pig.

Come on, not only the gasoline blowtorch of the hot air balloon has problems, but the parachute that I have worked so hard to reproduce has not played a little role.

It seems that the success of the hot air balloon is still far away.

Gong Shuli patted Leng Feng on the shoulder: "It doesn't matter, if you fail, you will fail! Haha, I have already seen the feasibility of Feitian today. As long as we do our own things well, and then experiment!"

Gongshu Li has lived for 85 years. If you ask him which day he lived the happiest, he will definitely say that it was the day when the hot air balloon experiment failed.

Although the hot air balloon experiment failed on this day, he really saw it, and saw the idea of ​​using Kongming lanterns, which can indeed lead people to fly.

The thing that hits people the most is not failure, but that this road doesn't work at all.

Now, seeing the hot air balloon successfully launched into the sky, Gongshuli has strengthened his belief in continuing.

All that's left is to perfect that damn gasoline blowtorch so that it doesn't explode after a while.

As for the parachute, that is the business of Leng Feng, Duke of the State of Jin, not his business.

Seeing that Gongshu Li took a deep breath, he limped and walked outside.Gong Shupo thought his grandfather was getting discouraged, so he quickly walked a few steps to catch up: "Grandpa, isn't our hot air balloon taking off? It can be done! What are you doing, old man?"

Gong Shuli turned his head, with a smile that hadn't appeared on his old face for a long time: "You son of a bitch, go ask someone to carry the old man back. I will continue to study the gasoline blowtorch, old man! Grandma, before I die, I must go on the hot air balloon myself, and then Fly once!"

Seeing that his grandfather was not discouraged, but had strengthened his faith like never before, Gong Shupo couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.

It's good that they are not discouraged, as long as the old man can be happy during the last period of time, it is considered filial piety to them.

"Master."

After vomiting, Li Tai came over with the blood-stained parachute, crying in his voice, "Our parachute failed, it didn't work at all."

Li Chengqian hugged his younger brother: "Don't be discouraged, it doesn't matter if you fail. Didn't Master say that this parachute is actually right and can be built? Let's continue to study!"

Li Tai nodded. For him, this hot air balloon is just the first step in the challenge of "flying".
