Lightning can convert nitrogen in the air into nitric oxide, which combines with oxygen to form nitrogen dioxide.
Nitrogen dioxide dissolves in water, is washed to the ground by rain, and combines with underground minerals to form nitrates.
Nitrates can be used as nitrogen fertilizer, so crops will grow better.
This may seem like a miracle, but its core is actually science.
Lu Chen's idea of using lightning to stimulate Chen Laoliu's brother and wake him up was not completely without scientific basis.
When he was on Earth, he had seen an article in a scientific journal that said a long-term comatose car accident patient was awakened through low-intensity discharges from a neurovagal device.
Before that, the medical community generally believed that it was almost impossible to wake up a patient who had been in a coma for more than 12 months.
Let’s give it a try. Given the current situation, Lu Chen can only try his best to save the situation.
He quickly wrote down the materials he needed on a piece of paper. Chen Laoliu took a look at it and frowned, saying, "Blacksmith, leatherworker, iron ore, do you need so much?"
Lu Chen shrugged and said, "Yes, controlling lightning is not an easy task. Besides, you know your brother's illness well. If you really want to cure it, it does require a lot of investment."
Lu Chen was fearless. With the current level of medical technology, Chen Laoliu's brother's illness could definitely not be cured.
If the other party really wants his brother to wake up, he must take a gamble.
Chen Laoliu also understood this, so at this moment he looked very conflicted. After hesitating for a long while, he nodded and said, "Let me think about it. You need too many things, and I need some time to prepare them."
As he said that, Chen Laoliu waved his hand, signaling his men to take the man away.
After everyone left, one of his men came up and whispered, "Boss, do you really want to trust this guy? He needs too many of these things. If we make a big fuss about it, it'll easily lead to others noticing something."
Chen Laoliu looked at the paper in his hand, then at his brother lying on the bed. Finally, he sighed and said, "What can we do? I'm afraid he's the only one who can cure my brother's illness now. Go and make some arrangements. Try to find someone we trust."
After Lu Chen was brought back to the dungeon, Li Mingyue hurried over to greet him and asked with concern, "How is everything? Is everything okay? Did they do anything to you?"
You know what, maybe because they were both in trouble, Lu Chen felt that Li Mingyue was much more normal at this moment.
"Don't worry, they need my help, so they won't touch me for now."
Seeing the criminals leave the cell, Li Mingyue asked again, "Have you come up with a solution?"
"Anyway, I've already put out the bait, so let's see if they'll bite. Just relax and wait. Is there anything else to eat? Give me another bowl of rice."
Li Mingyue was stunned for a moment, then quickly stood up and served Lu Chen a bowl of rice and said, "You are so generous."
Lu Chen picked up a dish with chopsticks and said, "What else can we do? We still have to stay here for a long time, we can't let our bodies collapse first. These dishes are barely touched, you can eat them too. The cumin lamb chops are really good, you can tell the lamb must be from the north the moment you taste it."
Seeing Lu Chen's calm and free-spirited demeanor, Li Mingyue was also infected. She also served herself a bowl of rice and sat opposite Lu Chen.
Lu Chen naturally picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it into Li Mingyue's bowl.
Li Mingyue was stunned for a moment. She was used to being served while eating, but it was the first time for her to have a strange man pick up food for her.
"Eat, why are you looking at me? Don't you like sweet and sour food?" Lu Chen asked while eating.
Seeing that Lu Chen looked very natural, Li Mingyue hesitated for a while, but still ate the food.
After that, Lu Chen would occasionally pick up some food for Li Mingyue. After getting used to it, Li Mingyue would actually take the initiative to help Lu Chen add more food. As a result, although the two of them were in the dungeon, their relationship became more harmonious than outside.
After eating and drinking, the two men sat in the cell and chatted.
Through the conversation, Li Mingyue discovered that Lu Chen was not the kind of evil Taoist she thought he was, who could only cheat and deceive people. Lu Chen's conversation, vision, and pattern were all quite good. Even she, a princess who received an orthodox royal education, had to admit that she was inferior to him.
At some point, Li Mingyue even had a feeling in her heart: is it possible that there are really people in this world who are born with knowledge?
It is said that a thousand cups of wine are not enough when meeting a close friend, but a single word is too much when there is no one you can talk to. Once two people can chat together, time passes very quickly.
When Li Mingyue came back to her senses, Lu Chen looked at the dim oil lamp and said, "It's almost midnight. It's time to go to bed."
"Ah? Is it so late? Then let's get some rest. You must be tired after battling with them today."
Lu Chen yawned, stretched, and said, "Good night!"
Li Mingyue was stunned for a moment, then asked curiously, "What does 'good night' mean?"
"It's slang from my hometown, meaning to have a good night's sleep."
Li Mingyue nodded and said to Lu Chen, "Good night then."
Lu Chen walked to the corner of the room and slept on a pile of straw with his clothes on. Li Mingyue looked at him and followed Lu Chen's example, turning sideways and lying down.
I don’t know if it was really because of the battle of wits and courage with the bandits today, but Lu Chen fell asleep very quickly.
But Li Mingyue tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. This was the first time for her who had lived a pampered life to encounter such a situation. Although she had appeared calm just now, she was actually very panicked inside.
