Real Cthulhu Running Game

Because gunpowder has a certain degree of toxicity, it does release a large amount of heat when it burns, causing the wound to "scab" instantly. However, it can easily lead to infection and poisoning of the wound, so using this method to stop bleeding has a high risk factor. In fact, it is no less than a wound that keeps bleeding.

What's more, old-fashioned firearms all use black powder, and this black powder is more toxic due to different compositions, so this type of firearm can cause physical damage and magic damage at the same time.

But here comes the problem. Logically speaking, steel balls should not have such strong penetrating ability, because the round structure of the steel ball will continue to consume kinetic energy due to rotation after contacting the target, so it can penetrate the most fleshy thighs. The place is not very visible.

This is a bit like the "Metro" series-level pneumatic rifle. It also uses steel balls as ammunition to kill. And even if this weapon is upgraded to the top version, when facing the enemy, it can only kill the enemy by aiming at the head. And it has to be a human enemy, because if it is a monster enemy, it can't be defeated with one shot. As for hitting the body, it will take several shots to kill the enemy.

This can be regarded as the reason why hunters in those days may not be able to shoot wild boars and bears with guns, because the muskets and blunderbuss they used were still too weak for rough-skinned and thick-fleshed beasts, even if they hit a few The gun has no way of making the target fall, or even stop it.

Going back to the wound on Luo San's leg, Liu Xing found that the wound was very strange after careful observation, because if you ignore the scab that has formed, you will find that the surface of the wound is actually very smooth, like Someone pressed it out directly using a cylindrical mold.

Could it be that my previous guess was wrong?

Liu Xing glanced at Ding Kun, who also shook his head slightly, indicating that the wound might be different from what he had guessed before.

"Mr. Liu Xing, do you see what's wrong?" Luo Yun said worriedly: "Will my child be okay?"

Liu Xing thought for a while and then said: "The problem is not big. The third young master just had a high fever due to the inflammation of the wound. It's just that the fever came on too fast this time, so the third young master suddenly collapsed. But this problem is not Yes, as long as you take some heat-clearing and detoxifying medicine, it should be fine, but the wound needs to be treated again, and it is best to wash it with strong white wine."

Luo Yun did not doubt that he was there and directly ordered his subordinates to do it.

"By the way, Mr. Liu Xing, do you know how this wound was caused? After Luo San came home, he said that he was walking on the road well, and then he heard a deep bang from the distance, and he felt that he There was a sharp pain in my thigh." Luo Yun asked seriously.

Liu Xing nodded, frowned and said: "Judging from the current situation, your young master may have been attacked by a strange weapon. This strange weapon is actually a kind of hidden weapon, because it can be used in It attacks from a long distance, so essentially it is similar to a crossbow, but it is more stable and looks smaller."

At this point, Liu Xing gave him a thumbs up, "This hidden weapon may be about the same size as our thumb, so the Third Young Master didn't find anything to make him like this after he was injured, because it fell on Just flick it twice on the ground and you won’t know where it went; however, there should not be many such hidden weapons in existence, maybe only one or two, so if we find someone carrying such a hidden weapon in the future, we will arrest him He doesn’t need any hesitation, but now I very much doubt that this person is a member of the Huang family!”

"If it's the Huang family, there will indeed be trouble."

Luo Yun quickly understood what Liu Xing meant, "Relying on this hidden weapon, that person only needs to drill into the woods near Heshan County and launch unscrupulous sneak attacks there. Who dares to enter or leave Heshan County at that time?" , he would give that person a shot, and then Heshan County would be abolished... In other words, Heshan County is not far away from being disbanded."

"Yeah, that's what I'm most worried about now."

Liu Xing looked at the table in the distance and continued: "However, the penetrating power of this hidden weapon is still very effective, so Master Luo, you only need to cover the table with a layer of cowhide to ensure that a person can safely enter and leave Heshan." County, of course this is just a temporary measure, after all, it is still too inconvenient.”

"Yes, it seems that I will have to send a team of people to search that area later and find a way to find this guy."

After Luo Yun finished speaking, he sent Liu Xing and others back to the yard.

After returning to the yard, Liu Xing expressed his doubts, "It seems that Luo San's wound should be a gunshot wound, but I feel that whether it is a marble or a bullet, it doesn't match the wound, but it still doesn't match the wound." It’s not like it was caused by cold weapons.”

"slingshot."

Yin En directly argued: "If it was a slingshot used by a martial arts master, it is still possible to cause such wounds."

"Impossible, this seems to be just a low-level martial arts plane with some mythical creatures, so the martial arts people here should not use their internal strength to wrap the steel balls, so that the steel balls have stronger penetrating power." Ding Kun shook his head and said: "So the penetrating power of the steel ball is only related to the kinetic energy that the slingshot can provide. Currently, the slingshot in the real world only has an effective range of more than twenty meters. If it goes further, the steel ball will have serious damage. Falling, this also means that the kinetic energy is no longer sufficient.”

"So the possibility of a slingshot can be ruled out, and didn't Luo San say that he heard a bang? This doesn't match the slingshot, so I think this weapon should be a blunderbuss or an air gun, and the air gun is more likely. High, because the sound of the gun is quite loud... But the air gun uses air pressure to complete the firing process, so it should not cause wound infection, unless the person poisoned the steel balls; and the gun will Gunpowder is used as a booster, so the steel balls will definitely be contaminated with some gunpowder, so it is reasonable for Luo San's wound to be infected."

At this time, Ding Kun showed a more puzzled expression, "But this wound is too smooth. It is a bit abnormal to be that smooth, because as long as you have not failed the biological test, you should know the muscles of most living things." They are all tiny, so whether you eat beef, pork, chicken, duck or even fish, you can find very clear textures after one bite, and we humans are no exception; so when a bullet passes through the human body, these muscles There will be varying degrees of fracture, and the fat will melt to varying degrees due to the heat of the bullet, so the wound should be irregular!"

"And you have also seen some war movies, right? In them, after people are shot, there will be a ball of blood. That is because the bullet will break the skin the moment it contacts the human body, so there will be an explosion effect. , and in the process of penetration, kinetic energy will continue to be consumed due to resistance, so many bullets will stay directly in the body; in addition, the thigh can be said to be the most fleshy part of the body, and because people have to Because of walking, even fat people have muscles in their thighs, so the possibility of steel balls penetrating through their thighs is not high."

"But you also know the structure of the bullet. It is basically impossible to make such a wound... So I still can't figure out what this thing is."

Ding Kun said with a confused look: "Perhaps this is a real Qimen weapon that uses the principle of firearms to fire, but the style of the bullet may be similar to a circle, so that the wounds can be so neat and smooth, but such a The question becomes where does the meat go? It is impossible for such a piece of meat to fall on the ground without being discovered... Unless this gun is also equipped with the black technology of the Yis people, and a teleportation device is installed in the circle, In this way, this effect can be achieved.”

"Isn't this unscientific? Well, the existence of Yithians is not scientific in the first place, or it does not conform to our understanding and definition of science. And I don't think Tenal would be so messy and come up with what we think. Let us guess things that we have never thought of." Liu Xing shook his head and said, "So we are asking if there is such a possibility, that is, Luo San's injury may have been directed and acted by himself?"

As soon as Liu Xing said this, everyone present looked surprised.

"The reason why I think so is because I found that Luo San might be pretending to be fainted! The reason is very simple. Although I just checked Luo San's wound, I found that Luo San's wound actually looked quite normal, and There was no obvious poisoning or infection and his temperature was quite normal."

Liu Xing explained seriously: "A fever will raise the body temperature of the whole body, but I found that the body temperature of his thigh is very normal, and fever generally does not cause people to faint suddenly, not to mention this person's previous performance Everything seems to be normal, so now I kind of suspect that this is Luo San directing and acting. Maybe he was not really attacked, but just injured himself for some purpose, and in order to prevent his father from seeing how he was injured. So I came up with such a strange wound, which made the fact that I was injured even more confusing."

"Then the question is, why did Luo San do this? What are the benefits of doing this?" Li Hanxing asked.

Liu Xing shrugged, shook his head and said: "Then I don't know very well, but from a doctor's point of view, Luo San's situation is not normal. Of course, this is a place that is different from our real world. , so it may be due to some factors that I don’t know that caused all this; but if I want to make a bold guess, I suspect that Luo San may have had something happen outside! Do you still remember what Old Man Li told us? ? He said Luo San was going to the countryside to collect debts this time."

"Money?" Tian Qing said subconsciously: "Yes, for people in ancient times, the best high-quality industry they could think of was land. After all, there is a risk of gold, antiques and the like being stolen. , but the land is there, and no matter how powerful the thieves or robbers are, there is nothing they can do with the land, so a big family like the Luo family must have taken over a lot of land around Heshan County, so ordinary people have to To rent land, or become a tenant farmer of the Luo family, the Luo family needs to send someone to collect the accounts every year - either money or food."

"It should be money, because Heshan County has to send so much food to the Gray Rat King every year, so the food in Heshan County is definitely not enough. Therefore, based on the relationship between supply and demand, we can infer that the price of food in Heshan County is high. The price is low, so collecting grain is not enough for the Luo family to make ends meet. It is better to collect some money and buy cheaper grain elsewhere. But when Luo San was carried back yesterday, I saw that he and his entourage were lightly dressed and simple. There's no baggage or anything."

Yin En touched his chin and came to his own conclusion, "Perhaps for some reason, Luo San spent all the money he received, so in order to prevent his father from enforcing family laws on him, Luo San thought of And as Liu Xing said, even those of us who are well-informed can't think of a reason for this strange wound at the moment, let alone Luo Yun and the others. So if we weren't here, Luo Yun might never be able to give a reasonable explanation for his son's injuries."

"There are still reasonable explanations, such as revenge from the Huang family." Liu Xing shook his head and said, "But this is already a family matter of the Luo family, so we'd better not continue to participate."

"Yes, let Luo Yun get over his headache slowly over this matter." Ding Kun said with a smile.

"By the way, what do you think of the Magic Flute?"

Shi Zixuan said curiously: "The setting of this magic flute is almost exactly the same as the flute player in fairy tales, but its data are all blurred, so we don't know the exact parameters of this magic flute, that is, I don’t know what negative effects this magic flute may have, so do we need to find some NPCs to do experiments to get relatively reliable data?”

"That definitely requires an experiment, so as not to fail in the end." Liu Xing replied affirmatively: "It's just that we have to think of a better reason to convince Luo Yun. After all, this experiment may kill people, and we We must also ensure that Luo Yun will not kill the donkey and kick us away after mastering the skills of using the magic flute."

"Ah, why?" Tian Qing asked with some confusion: "I don't think Luo Yun would do this?"

"Of course, because as long as Luo Yun knows that anyone can use the magic flute, then Luo Yun will most likely choose to put us aside and act alone, and the reason is that as long as Luo Yun does this, then he will Heshan County’s reputation will be raised to a new level – the savior.”
