Scientific Travel

Gou Dan insisted on coming along on this trip, not because he had any other task for Deng Yin to do, but simply to curry favor with him.

Deng Yin kept her word; she said she wouldn't let Gou Dan eat anything from her space, and she meant it.

He hasn't been at the table for meals these past few days; he's survived solely by drinking water.

Dog Egg also tried eating boiled potatoes and cabbage, but he really couldn't stomach them.

Gou Dan gritted his teeth and asked Li Pingle to teach him how to make cabbage and potatoes taste good.

Ultimately, one can only conclude that culinary skills are a kind of talent...

Dog Egg, however, clearly doesn't have that talent...

Deng Yin knew what Gou Dan was thinking, but she didn't expose him.

On the way to the military camp, the three of them ate and drank together, and Deng Yin no longer restricted Gou Dan to only eating cabbage and potatoes.

Originally, this matter couldn't be blamed on him.

......

It's all his fault!!!

Why didn't you say it was such a good thing earlier? Why did you have to say it was just a pretty stone? That's why she traded the stone for a can of tea!

There's no reason to take back something that's been given away. Deng Yin just felt it was a pity, but he wouldn't go back on his word.

...I have a tiny bit of regret.

Neither increasing strength nor increasing lifespan held any appeal for Deng Yin.

This is not her world. In her world, if you want power, you can take a dose of Power Elephant Liquid, which will allow you to kill an elephant with one punch.

No one has ever seen this animal; they have only heard that elephants existed on the planet where humans first inhabited.

According to legend, elephants are the strongest of all land animals and can be considered the overlords.

If you want to increase your lifespan, you can get a dose of longevity tortoise liquid.

As the ancients said, "A thousand-year-old tortoise is a ten-thousand-year-old turtle." Although injecting longevity turtle liquid won't make someone live for ten thousand years, living for several thousand years is no problem.

As for why it's not called "Shouwangbaye" (寿王八液), it's because "wangba" (王八) used to be an insult.

Both the Power Elephant Liquid and the Longevity Turtle Liquid are very expensive. One dose of Power Elephant Liquid costs 100 million planetary coins. The Longevity Turtle Liquid is even more expensive, costing 2000 million planetary coins.

Moreover, the Longevity Turtle Elixir requires five injections, and each injection can add 200 years to a person's life. The whole set costs 100 million planetary coins.

The longer a person lives, the richer they become, and the richer a person becomes, the longer they live.

People like Deng Yin, who have no money, can only live to be 270 years old at most.

For humans who don't receive injections, living to this age is already the limit.

Deng Yin didn't crave power; why go to all that trouble when a stun gun could solve the problem?

A person with only strength cannot even get close.

Therefore, most of the Lixiang Liquid was played by children from wealthy families. Kids always like to compare themselves to others.

As for living a long life, Deng Yin was even less interested.

There are many things to do in a person's life, and experiencing the feeling of death is one of them.

The only use of living longer is to be able to spend all the money. Although Deng Yin's mission is not yet complete, he has already figured out how to spend the fifty million planetary coins.

Hmm... she won't need injections; she'll be able to spend all her money before she dies.

The reason she was angry with Gou Dan was simply because it was such a waste that she had used such a useful item to exchange for tea.

She doesn't need it, but Aunt Wang does, Uncle Li does, and Wang Xi does too.

People in this world live short lives and need an opportunity to spend more time with their loved ones.

Gou Dan still doesn't know why Deng Yin is so angry. No matter how much he planned, he couldn't have imagined that Deng Yin would exchange the stone for tea.

She earned it with points, so she wouldn't throw it away easily; she would definitely find a place where it could be put to good use.

......

From the moment he stepped onto the ship, Mei Shengke was nothing but shocked.

Such a large ship suddenly appeared out of thin air. It was mostly silver, but it didn't look like it was made of refined iron, because refined iron doesn't look this white.

Most smooth-looking objects reflect light. But this boat doesn't.

It's as if it has absorbed all the light.

Hmm, that's pretty impressive.

Once inside the ship, Mei Shengke realized what "even more powerful" truly meant.

The rooms are arranged in a row, and there is an empty space at the bow of the ship. After the cabin is closed, the lights inside will automatically turn on.

It would be strange if Mei Shengke wasn't shocked to suddenly evolve from ancient times to the light bulb era.

What shocked Mei Shengke the most was that this boat didn't need to be rowed!

When Mei Shengke first saw the ship, he hesitated for a moment. How long would it take to row such a big ship?

Besides, there were only three of them.

But when he saw that the boat not only didn't need rowing, but also moved very fast, Mei Shengke didn't hesitate at all.

All they felt was admiration for Deng Yin.

......

When Deng Yin was building the ship, there weren't many materials left, so he didn't build it that big and only built eleven rooms.

All eleven rooms were used for living, and in addition, a kitchen, a living room, and a latrine were also built.

It wasn't good to carry excrement around on the ship, so Deng Yin dug a hole in the deck, and the hole was filled with no liquid.

Liquid is highly corrosive; it can corrode not only things but also their taste.

The liquid itself has a plum blossom scent, and anything corroded by the liquid will release the plum blossom fragrance.

Once the fragrance fades, it means the contents have completely decomposed.

To resist the corrosion of liquid-free substances, you need to apply a universal solution.

Neither of these items is expensive; they're generally used to clean up unwanted junk.

Every household has them, after all, natural disasters can happen almost anytime, and it's dangerous to go out to throw away trash.

Besides cleaning up trash, the liquid was also used in toilets.

Water resources are very precious, and most people can only rely on tree lakes to store some water during rainstorms.

I don't know when the next rainstorm will come, so I have to be careful with my drinking water; there's no extra to use for flushing the toilet.

This thing wasn't used when the house was built because Deng Yin initially wanted people to live there; she never intended to reveal her identity back then.

By the time we wanted to use liquid-free solution, it was too late. Putting aside the fact that the pit was too big and there wasn't enough liquid-free solution, the main problem was that the pit was full of poop.

Even if you apply Wanhe Liquid to this, it doesn't guarantee that the substance underneath will be protected from corrosion.

Because poop is very light, it will tilt even with the slightest touch. And if it tilts even slightly, it could leak out the part of the poop that wasn't coated with the lotion.

If this is the reason why this planet was traversed...

...Then let's forget about it.
