Steel Chang'an

Chapter 12

Behind the shop of Li's machine repair shop is a large courtyard.

The yard looked like it hadn't been lived in for a long time, and the ground was covered with waist-high weeds.A turbine engine of unknown age was leaning against the wall, its surface already covered with a layer of deep red rust, and there were piles of scrap copper and rotten iron that could no longer see its shape.

"Are you sure...you can fix this thing?"

Mu Yun looked at Su Sheng—I didn't expect this boy with a sharp tongue to have such a gentle-sounding name—he was busy in and out, fixing the steel cables to the joints of the Xifeng armor.

Mu Yun was basically looking at Su Sheng's busy work with the mood of a dead horse as a living horse doctor. I didn't expect him to work very quickly. Although he was not less noisy, it was not too unbearable after getting used to it—— Just like a swarm of flies buzzing around you.

Not long after, Xifeng's huge body seemed to be wrapped in a layer of spider webs. The dense steel cables seemed to be hanging in the air in a disorderly manner, and the other ends of the steel cables were tied to the bodies of two strange-shaped robots. .

Mu Yun called these two guys robots in his heart, but in fact he really praised them.Because they really don't look like people at all, they look like iron towers built with countless arms and pulleys, with large and small roulettes at the bottom.In the midst of those up and down lever arms, a propeller engine that couldn't be more old made a laborious puffing sound and turned feebly.

Su Sheng climbed down from the mecha, and at some point hung a heavy and heavy iron box on his chest. The yellow paint on the iron box was already mottled. It looked like some kind of measuring instrument that had long been obsolete, or that it had been modified. vintage computer.Su Sheng looked down at the measuring instrument from time to time, and then raised his head to direct the two old guys to stand at an angle of 120 degrees—they were called 42 and 85 in Su Sheng's mouth. After listening to it for a long time, Mu Yun finally realized Come to understand, these two numbers turned out to be the code names of the two iron tower robots.

Mu Yun stood there, watching Su Sheng adjust the angles of 42 and 85 for a while.Under Su Sheng's command, those arms moved up and down.Mu Yun was still vigilant against the stealth mechs that were ambushing nearby but hadn’t made a move yet. One of them didn’t pay attention, and saw that the steel cables that were originally wrapped around the body of the armor Xifeng and hanging in mid-air were gradually stretched. , and couldn't help but yelled:

"Hey! Hey! You little lunatic! You don't want to use these two broken machines to drag the mecha off the ground!"

"Nonsense, why don't you drag it up from the ground?" The little lunatic didn't even bother to turn his head, and stopped talking, but concentrated on directing the two machines.

I saw those steel cables that were originally soft like a mess, after they were stretched straight in the air, they actually presented a neat angle like a cable-stayed bridge. The two broken machines in Mu Yun's mouth—— 42 and The propeller engine of 85 also started to rotate with all its strength, and the moment arm on the iron tower began to move up and down like a relay, driving the pulley in the middle, and tightening the steel cable on the mecha little by little——

This is just crazy!Mu Yun thought to himself!He knew how much a [-]-ton mecha could weigh. Forty tons just refers to the tonnage level of the mecha body itself, plus the alloy armor casing, various heavy artillery tubes and auxiliary power equipment of the weapon system. , the entire mecha will weigh nearly fifty tons.On the battlefield, it usually requires several military transport helicopters to be towed at the same time to pull the powerless mech up from the flat ground.

But now, these two seemingly fragile broken machines, relying on the horsepower of these two propeller engines removed from some old plane, calculated at a terrifyingly accurate angle, and with the help of the force between the arms The superimposed transmission actually pulled the fallen battle armor Xifeng abruptly from the ground!
This is just crazy!Mu Yun thought to herself.

The blades of the two propeller engines turned frantically at the same time, making a frighteningly high-pitched sound.The tight steel cables in the sky are like Mu Yun's tense nerves. He is afraid that any of them will be broken if he can't bear the strength, and the armor Xifeng will fall back to the ground. Mu Yun's heart was broken.

Fortunately, what Mu Yun was afraid of did not happen.I saw that 42 and 85 seemed to be tug-of-war with the westerly wind of the battle armor. Although they were brought to the direction of the westerly wind a little bit, the steel cables were still steadily being tightened and shortened. The arm is also constantly extending, until the westerly wind is pulled to a position close to 45 degrees to the ground, 42 and 85 suddenly stop moving!
The battle armor Zephyr, which was pulled up from the ground, just kept a 45-degree oblique angle and stood still in mid-air!
"What's going on here!" Mu Yun felt that he was about to have a heart attack, and his heart was hanging in the air like a battle armor Xifeng. This is fatal!

"The heights of 42 and 85 are not enough, this is their limit." Su Sheng said casually, Mu Yun covered his heart with one hand, "Don't worry," Su Sheng glanced at him, "17 has already gone to help .”

"17? Where is it?" Mu Yun looked around.He guessed that 17 should be the same as 42 and 85, which is also the code name of a certain robot, but he didn't see any robot. He saw that the one that Mu Yun had regarded as scrap copper and iron that fell in the grass was actually a robot. Carp straightened up, stood up straight, stretched out three thin legs like bamboo poles, trotted all the way, and walked past Mu Yun nimbly.

Is this also Su Sheng's robot?Mu Yun was a little dumbfounded. The pole suddenly jumped up from the grass by itself. Those who were not mentally prepared would be shocked.This is not a robot, this is simply a monster in Liaozhai!

Mu Yun took a look at the weed-covered courtyard and thought, based on the number Su Sheng gave his robot, there must be at least 85 of these monster-like things.The grass looks like a pile of scrap copper and rotten iron. Don't wait a while for everyone to jump up and run around the yard.

He was so curious that he forgot to worry.It was getting late, and the yard was dark, so the pole-like thing could not be seen clearly.When he looked intently again, the pole named 17 by Su had already turned to the back of the battle armor Xifeng.According to Su Sheng's command, after 17 adjusted the angle forward and backward, the three thin bamboo pole-like legs were spread out like a tripod and fixed on the ground. The action of pulling the steel cable backwards, rising up section by section, is like a jack, lifting the armor Xifeng up!

With a loud noise like thunder, Xifeng's feet finally stood on the ground again.Although the leg balancer has been damaged, with the support behind and the pulling force in front, the armor Xifeng can stand on all fours!
Mu Yun wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.Although he is not a mechanic, but if he can operate the armor, he will not have no knowledge of mechanic.He knew very well that the ability to pull such a colossal object from the ground with only the horsepower of two old-fashioned propeller engines and a jack that looked like broken copper was all based on precise angles and mechanical calculations.

The most experienced mechanic among the Northwest Wolves might not be able to do this kind of skill, but it would take a long time to measure and calculate before he had the guts to do it.

But outside Chang'an City, a young man in a small machine repair shop did it easily.This made Mu Yun feel suspicious.

What is the origin of this poisonous boy?The more Mu Yun thought about it, the more she felt that this Su Sheng had a familiar feeling, very similar to someone he knew, but he couldn't remember who it was.

Su Sheng didn't know that Mu Yun had already suspected him. He looked up at this huge and beautiful mecha, quickly pressing the big iron box on his chest with both hands, calculating from time to time, Stop and think now and then.Some old images were called out, which looked like structural diagrams of various parts, and soon those images quickly disappeared into the air.

Mu Yun just watched Su Sheng busy with cold eyes.Although he doubted this little brat, but now there is something that worries him even more - those invisible mechs lurking in this street!Until now, he hadn't heard them leave, nor found any signs of them moving.

If those stealth mechs followed him all the way out of the main city of Chang'an, in order to find a remote place with few people, then why didn't they do it so long?

If they were worried that the armor Xifeng still had the ability to fight back, then the best time for them to attack was when the armor system completely collapsed and fell to the ground. Why didn't they launch an attack?Do these people really think that Mu Yun can resist several mechas with his body?
Mu Yun didn't stop Su Sheng just now, and let him go to repair the armor Xifeng, just to see if these invisible mechs would lose their temper and make a move.He didn't expect that seeing the armor Xifeng standing on the ground again, these guys still remained silent!

Death is not terrible, but the feeling of waiting for death is terrible.

Because the mecha that ambushed Mu Yun hadn't moved, he turned his attention to Su Sheng again.Seeing Su Sheng calculating and operating in an orderly manner, although he still had doubts in his heart, he couldn't help but feel a little expectation.

He didn't know what he was looking forward to. Could it be that he was expecting this kid who looked like he was in his early ten years to be able to repair his own mecha like the ace mechanic of the Northwest Wolf?
Even if Su Sheng has this ability, looking at this machine repair shop full of scrap copper and iron, it is impossible to have accessories for the fourth generation of forty-ton heavy mechs.How many heavy mechas can there be in the entire continent?This kid is seeing the real machine for the first time, how could he know how to repair it?

Actually pinning her hopes on Su Sheng, Mu Yun felt that she was really desperate to a certain extent.

Mu Yun took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it, took two puffs in his mouth, and then slammed it out on the ground—when are these guys going to wait until they do it? !
