Road to science and technology

After eating and drinking, the group continued to move forward, and within a day, they passed Huangfengling.

To the west of Huangfengling is a flat land.

The rare open terrain made Tang Sanzang gallop happily, and Princess Ye also rode with full throttle. The six-eared macaque quickly followed, for fear of being caught by the monster again.

Not long after running wildly, the path was blocked by a surging river.

Seeing this, Tang Sanzang quickly shouted on his horse: "Apprentice, look at the rapid water in front of you, the waves are turbulent, the waves are vast, and there are no boats moving around. Where can we go?"

When the six-eared macaque heard this, he soared to the ground and put up a pergola with his hands to look forward. He was shocked and said: "Master, this river is really wide. I am afraid it is hundreds of miles away. If I want to cross it, I only need to use flying means. If it is Master, it is true that It’s so difficult, I’m afraid it will last forever!”

Princess Ye, who had just gotten off the car, heard what the six-eared macaque said and immediately knew where this place was, the Eight Hundred Mile Liusha River.

Sure enough, she saw a stone monument erected on the bank of the river within a few steps.

When the other three people came to the stone stele, they saw the words "Liusha River" engraved in seal characters on it, and a line of small characters engraved in the middle of the stone stele:

"Eight hundred quicksand realms, three thousand weak water depths."

"A goose feather cannot float, but a reed flower will sink to the bottom."

According to the setting, this is where Monk Sha joins the gang.

When Tang Sanzang and his group arrived at Liusha River, others might not pay attention, but Yue Yuanzhou did because he wanted to do a small experiment in this place.

Therefore, Princess Ye, who thought she could get through with soy sauce, suddenly received a task update prompt from the system.

"Trigger a special mission, mission description: The Liushahe River Demon was originally a general of the heavenly palace. He broke the glass lamp by mistake and violated the rules of heaven, so he was demoted to the lower realm. I thought he would reform well, but unexpectedly he was in the Liushahe River. He stirs up trouble, harms one party, and preys on passers-by, so he suffers the calamity of being pierced through the heart by ten thousand swords every seven days.

The host is a human being, and he must be filled with hatred when faced with such man-eating monsters. Moreover, the trip to obtain Buddhist scriptures was ordered by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. How could he allow such man-eating monsters to mix among them? "

"Mission objectives: 1. Kill the river demon. 2. Prevent the river demon from joining the scripture-gathering team. The host can choose one of the two to complete. Completing either of them will be considered as completing the mission."

"Task reward: One ginseng fruit from Wuzhuang Guan, and 10,000 points."

"This is a special mission. There are no mandatory requirements. The host can decide whether to accept it or not."

Yue Yuanzhou set out to do this kind of mission just to see if he could beat Sha Monk to death or cross the river quietly, easily survive the disaster, and then observe the difference in luck.

As for Sha Wujing, Guanyin had given him a name long ago and was here waiting for Buddhist scripture seekers. He didn't care. There was no way he could eat people while waiting for Buddhist scripture seekers. Is it possible to put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately in order to embody this?

Besides, even Sun Wukong has been replaced by a six-eared macaque, so it’s not a big deal to let Princess Ye take Sha Wujing’s place.

Princess Ye couldn't help but gasp after reading the mission description. She was about to enter the realm of earthly immortal cultivation and couldn't even defeat Zhu Bajie. How could she possibly kill Sha Seng.

She remembered that in the original book, Sha Seng could fight Zhu Bajie evenly in the water.

She noticed at this time that this was a branch task, and the system did not say what would happen if she did not complete the task.

Sure enough, after checking it, she understood that this special trigger task happened at random times, and nothing would happen if it was not completed.

It’s just that the reward is too generous.

Fuck, done it!

Princess Ye took over the task as soon as she became fierce.

Then he said to the six-eared macaque: "Brother Monkey, I think this Liusha River is very wide, and we must find a way to cross it. And judging from this description, this river must be extremely dangerous, and I am afraid it will be a dangerous place. As the saying goes, poor mountains and bad waters come out. Evil demon, I'm afraid there will be an evil demon lurking among them, so we need to be careful."

In recent days, she has become quite familiar with the six-eared macaque, so she called them that way.

Hearing what she said, Zhu Bajie on the side said disapprovingly: "This Fanhe's tone is quite impressive. If I had known, I would have erected a stone monument by the Tianhe River and engraved some words on it, which would have made it look more majestic." .”

After saying that, he turned to Princess Ye and flattered her: "Don't be afraid, Princess. If there is a monster in the river, I, the old pig, will be the first to rush down and kill it."

"Hey, the idiot has come to his senses. He has been staring at the princess all day. No monk is doing well, and he is not afraid of the master's blame. Quickly put your mind away. If you have that free time, you might as well think about how to let the master get through this eight hundred miles wide river. Shahe is real."

After the six-eared macaque finished speaking, he put his furry hand next to his ear and turned his ear to the Liusha River.

After a few breaths, he smiled and said: "Sure enough, the princess was right. I listened with my innate magical power. There was indeed some movement in the river. It must be the river monster!"

He turned to Tang Sanzang and said, "Master, please step back. Don't let the monsters in the river escape and capture you."

When Tang Sanzang heard this, he immediately left the stone monument on the shore and hurriedly walked inland. When he thought about it, he was a mortal and could still breathe if he was captured by a monster on dry land, but this was a monster in the water. How could he be captured by a monster in the water? He didn't want to go into the water. He was afraid of the huge river. If he got into the water, he would be drowned.

After Tang Sanzang ran away, the six-eared macaque took some light things such as reeds and leaves from the shore and threw them into the river. Sure enough, he was swept away by the waves without even taking a breath.

Zhu Bajie looked at it, but still didn't take it seriously. He could swim in weak water, and he was really not shocked by this characteristic.

However, he also symbolically grabbed a few small stones and threw them into the river. Then he patted the soil on his hands and said hummingly: "Although there are some ways to cross the river, in my opinion, it is easy to cross the river."

"Let the white dragon horse turn into a dragon body. The master will sit on the white dragon. The white dragon will pass by in a few leaps. No matter how powerful the Liusha River is, is it possible that the river water can rise into the sky and roll down the white dragon? Can’t do it?”

The six-eared macaque scratched his cheek and said: "You usually look dull, but I didn't expect you to be a bit smart, but it's rare. Let's go say hello to Master and Xiao Bailong."

Princess Ye on the side also secretly gave Zhu Bajie a thumbs up. If this goes by, she will have completed her mission.

So the three of them left the shore and went to the side of Master Sanzang to explain their plan. Unexpectedly, Master Sanzang said: "That's not appropriate. If they fly away, wouldn't it violate what they said at that time to go to the West step by step in a down-to-earth manner? Besides, If we soar into the sky today and encounter a steep mountain tomorrow, wouldn’t we have to use your magical powers to climb over it on a cloud?"

It seems to be the case. If this is the case, why not just fly to the west? Why walk slowly and deceive the world to get luck? You still need to show off.

It seems that it makes sense to choose Tang Sanzang as the person to learn the scriptures.

The white dragon horse also opened his mouth, but he didn't want to just shout a few neighs. Seeing that everyone didn't know what he meant, he had to stop. It's so miserable. After being turned into a horse by Guanyin, the bones in his throat haven't been refined yet, and his words always sound like a horse. Xiao Bailong had no choice but to secretly refine Heng Gu.

In fact, he was also annoyed. Although Guanyin had given him a life-saving grace, he also agreed to be a helper for Buddhist scripture seekers. After all, Guanyin said that after he went there, he could repay his karma with his heart and he would be able to transcend the mortal dragon and achieve the golden body. But to turn him into a white horse without saying a word, and to have a crossbone in his throat, is a bit unreasonable. After all, he is also a dragon.

At this time, Princess Ye Wencheng said: "I think it's better to build a boat and sail across. Taking a boat will not be like flying in the clouds."

As she said that, she began to search for various types of boats in the system. It couldn't be a kayak or the like. It was too small. Her car would definitely have to get on the boat, and there was also a white dragon horse who would also get on the boat.

However, she recently felt that her cultivation level was low and she had redeemed almost all her points for cultivation level. So looking at the huge price, she could only do nothing.

At this time, the six-eared macaque showed his well-informed characteristics and said: "I am afraid that no ordinary boat can cross it. I have heard of this Liusha River in the early years. This river is full of wild water and turbulent waves. Don't say A small boat, a giant boat or a goose feather can be swept to the bottom of the river, and the river is eight hundred miles wide, so I see no other way but to soar into the clouds."

That's because you haven't seen an aircraft carrier before

Princess Liangchen did not say the words about the aircraft carrier, but just said: "Eight hundred miles is 294 kilometers. This river is really wide. How about Brother Monkey, I heard that your Suixin Iron Soldier can change the size according to your heart. , or turn it into a long stool and put it on both ends of the river, and we can cross over it like a bridge."

Eight hundred miles is really broad.

According to the conversion, one mile is equal to 150 feet, and one foot is equal to 10 feet. Eight hundred miles is 1,200,000 feet, 1.2 million feet.

Although it is now the Tang Dynasty, it was already after the Sui Dynasty changed the units of weights and measures.

However, based on the changes in ancient weights and measures, this unit of river width measurement is the same as the unit used in astronomical calculations, and the weights and measures are based on the ancient system.

That is to say, it is not affected by the changes in weights and measures, and the parameters of the Qin Dynasty's weights and measures are still used, that is, 1 foot is approximately 24.5 centimeters.

In fact, the same is true for the height of ancient people. They all use ancient units, so three people who are eight feet and nine feet tall will not actually become more than three meters, which is very reasonable.

So the Liusha River is 294 kilometers wide. It takes an hour to drive at high speed by high-speed rail. You can imagine how wide it is.
