Zhu Chao accompanied me to watch short videos

The sunlight shines through the huge glass dome into the spacious waiting hall, creating mottled light and shadows.

A light aroma of coffee wafted through the air, intertwined with the whispers of the crowd and the train information played on the radio.

Passengers dragged their luggage, walking hurriedly or leisurely between the halls, their faces full of anticipation and anxiety.

Luo Li mingled in the crowd, constantly talking to her cell phone.

"Sister Man, I'm at the station, where are you?"

"What? Waiting for the traffic light? Bullshit, you haven't left the house yet!"

"I don't believe you at all! If you can't catch the bus, I'll smash your head when we meet!" Luo Li said as she raised her slender white arms and threatened fiercely, which made passers-by couldn't help but look sideways.

Tang Dynasty.

When the men heard Luo Li's words, they smiled dotingly like old fathers.

"This Miss Luo also said that her roommate is fierce and will twist her head off if she is late. In my opinion, Miss Luo's temper is comparable to that of her roommate, hahahaha."

As a well-known daughter slave, Li Shimin was amused when he saw Luo Li's little girl's attitude.

"Yes, Miss Luo looks weak, but her personality is straightforward and honest, quite like the women of our Tang Dynasty!" Changsun Wuji also agreed with a smile.

At this time, the Tang Dynasty was quite open-minded, and women had a high degree of freedom, not yet bound by the red tape of the Song and Ming dynasties, so Luo Li's words and deeds were not inappropriate in their eyes.

"Not only that, although Miss Luo is not very old, her face-changing skills are not inferior to that of the yellow-faced woman in my family." Wei Zheng also joked with a smile.

Upon hearing this, everyone looked towards the sky and then couldn't help laughing.

It turned out that Luo Li had already returned to the live broadcast room, looking calm and indifferent. It was hard to tell that she was still the hot-tempered girl who had just threatened to smash her roommate's head.

Of course Luo Li didn't know that the live broadcast room had already recorded all her "big words" and she was trying to reopen the topic at this moment.

"Hello, I'm at the station now." Luo Li said as she turned the camera to show the scene in the waiting hall.

The brightness and cleanliness of the hall immediately attracted the attention of many ancient people.

"Where were we talking about just now? Oil, right? My roommate hasn't come yet, so I'll continue the topic. But first, I'll say this. What I know is what the teacher said casually during class. If there's anything wrong, please be gentle with me."

Luo Li cleared her throat and said slowly: "As an important energy source, the use of oil can be traced back to ancient times. As early as around 4000 BC, people in the Middle East discovered oil and began to use it as a fuel or adhesive for building materials. There are records of civilizations such as ancient Egypt and ancient Babylon using oil."

4000 BC?

middle East?

What is that place? The middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River?

After hearing Luo Li's words, Ying Zheng, who was reviewing the bamboo slips, paused and looked up at the map hanging in the hall.

"In fact, our country is one of the earliest countries to discover and use oil. For example, there are records in the "Book of Changes" that "there is fire in the marsh" and "fire above and marsh below". This is most likely a description of the phenomenon of oil catching fire on the surface of a lake." At this moment, there was a hint of pride in Luo Li's tone.

"In the Eastern Han Dynasty, Ban Gu's "Book of Han·Geography" had a clear record about petroleum: 'Gaonu, there is Wei River, which is flammable'. Gaonu is a place name, which should be the area of ​​present-day Shaanxi Province, and Wei River refers to petroleum."

During the Yuanhe period of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Ban Chao was leading his troops in a confrontation with the soldiers of Qiuci. Suddenly, he heard the news from his brother Ban Gu. He laughed wildly three times, rode his horse, picked up his spear, and led his troops to charge straight into the Qiuci army formation.

He seemed to have been given some kind of buff. He would kill gods or Buddhas. No one who stood in his way was a match for him. In just a few dozen breaths, he rushed out of the Kucha army formation, then turned his horse's head and started to counterattack.

Blood had already soaked through his clothes and armor, and the knife wound on his leg revealed his white bones, but he had no intention of retreating, and only had one thought in his mind.

My brother is famous for his writings.

Then Ban Chao would never let the Ban family's reputation be tarnished!

Follow me and kill the enemy!

Along with the sound of fighting on the battlefield, Luo Li's voice rang out again.

"It is not only recorded in the Book of Han, but also in the Book of the Later Han: 'There is a mountain in the south of the county, and a spring of stone as big as Ju comes out of it. It burns very brightly, but it is inedible. The people in the county call it stone lacquer.' The stone lacquer here refers to petroleum."

"The person who actually named this thing petroleum was Shen Kuo of the Northern Song Dynasty, also known as Shen Mengxi. I don't know if Shen Mengxi throwing bombs in King of Glory has anything to do with this. By the way, if you play King of Glory, call me. I, Shen Mengxi, am really good at it!"

After saying this, Luo Li seemed to realize that she had gone off topic and smiled awkwardly.

"Ahem, I've strayed off topic. Shen Mengxi not only named oil, but also recorded in detail the properties, uses and origins of oil in Mengxi Bitan, and even proposed the military use of oil. I have to say that this man is truly a genius."

Northern Song Dynasty.

Shen Kuo, who had already turned gray, stroked his beard and laughed with satisfaction when he heard Luo Li mention "Mengxi Bitan".

He had a bumpy career and experienced many ups and downs throughout his career.

Now that he has retired and returned to his hometown, he only wants to record what he has learned in his life. He did not expect that people in later generations would speak so highly of him, which really makes him feel embarrassed.

After all, compared with the classics, history, and literature, what he is good at is just a minor subject.

He was often laughed at by his colleagues for this, but he did not expect that after the passage of time, a thousand years later, he would become a genius in the eyes of later generations.

How wonderful!

It is true that your body and name will be destroyed, but the rivers and mountains will flow forever!

But...what does the later generations mean by "I, Shen Mengxi, am really good at playing"?

Glancing at his old wife's unfriendly gaze, Shen Kuo kept smiling apologetically.

Miss Luo, you have really made me suffer!

……

"Of course, the Song Dynasty was an era of technological explosion. Not only Shen Kuo proposed the use of oil, but Lu You also proposed in his "Notes from Lao Xue'an" that oil could be made into "stone candles" for lighting."

"Later, as their books became more popular and technology developed, some hand-dug oil wells began to appear in the Song Dynasty."

"Isn't it incredible? When I first heard the teacher talk about it, I also thought it was a bit outrageous. I can only say that our iron-blooded Song Dynasty is indeed a dynasty that can do everything except fighting wars."

Zhao Kuangyin: “…”

Okay, okay, let’s play like this, right?

You want to give me the title of the Iron-Blooded Song Dynasty, right?

String!

Miss Luo is obviously a traitor at first glance!

"Moreover, the Song Dynasty not only saw the emergence of oil wells, but also the emergence of ultra-low-end gasoline bombs made from oil, sulfur and other materials. At the time, it could be said that they were two versions ahead of the world."

"But it's useless. You all know the morals of our Iron-Blooded Song Dynasty. We like to spend money to make 'friends', either to find ourselves a brother or a father, so this thing has basically been abandoned."

Again?

Scoring twice, and whipping the corpse again and again, right?

Zhao Kuangyin's already dark face became even darker!

He could only keep reminding himself in his heart that this Song Dynasty was not the same as that Song Dynasty, and that the Song Dynasty in his time and space would never become as recorded in history books.
