Ji Minxiu apologized first, "It's also my fault, I didn't explain it clearly to you. Slow down this time, I'll block it for you."
After Ji Minxiu finished speaking, he walked to the car and put his hand on the roof to block it.
Thank you!
Yun Zhourong thanked him, then carefully bent down and stepped onto the platform, finally managing to sit down safely.
"The door is closed, be careful."
Ji Minxiu reminded her again before helping her close the car door and getting into the driver's seat himself.
Yun Zhourong sat in the car, curiously looking around at everything inside.
The car seats were very soft, and the interior decoration was something she had never seen before.
She pushed the door again and found that it was indeed locked. Then she touched the glass window and marveled at how amazing future technology was.
At that moment, Ji Minxiu had already fastened his seatbelt and was ready to start the car.
"Lord Snow Demon, why are you wearing that ribbon?" Yun Zhourong asked curiously.
"Oh, I almost forgot, this is a seatbelt. It can prevent you from being thrown out of the car in the event of a car accident, increasing your chances of survival."
After Ji Minxiu finished speaking, he pointed to Yun Zhourong's side and said, "You have some too, you can try bringing some along."
"Here I am... Oh, is this it... But how do I do it?"
Yun Zhourong quickly found the seatbelt, but she couldn't figure out how it worked and couldn't pull it at all.
Seeing this, Ji Minxiu could only unbuckle his own seatbelt and then lean over to help Yun Zhourong tighten his seatbelt.
The man's body was warm, and he lay there in front of her, his unique fragrance wafting to her nose, causing Yun Zhourong's heart, which had already calmed down, to race again, and her face to flush rapidly.
"Look, you have to pull it down from top to bottom like this, then across your hips and fasten it here. Try it."
Ji Minxiu was focused on teaching at the moment and didn't think about it that much.
When they turned around, they bumped into each other, their noses almost touching.
They were so close that they could feel each other's warm breath.
Ji Minxiu's gaze gradually deepened and intensified, locking onto Yun Zhourong's eyes, which trembled slightly with tension.
Yun Zhourong's heart pounded like a drum, her cheeks flushed, yet she couldn't escape this intoxicating atmosphere.
The air inside the car seemed to freeze, filled with an ambiguous atmosphere.
Subconsciously, Ji Minxiu gently raised his hand, his fingertips lightly tracing Yun Zhourong's cheek.
Yun Zhourong's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she bit her lip, trying to suppress the panic in her heart.
However, in this confined space, all resistance seemed so futile.
They were getting closer and closer, as if they were about to break through that last line of defense at any moment.
Finally, Ji Minxiu stopped what he was doing, took a deep breath, stepped back, and said, "Try it yourself, and ask me if you don't know how."
"Okay, sure."
Yun Zhourong breathed a sigh of relief and quickly tried it out, blushing.
Ji Minxiu looked out the window, feeling a bit hot, and tugged at his collar, trying to calm himself down.
Yun Zhourong has a strong learning ability and quickly mastered it. She looked at Ji Minxiu happily and said, "Lord Snow Demon, I've learned it!"
Her bright, sparkling eyes softened Ji Minxiu's heart. He reached out and patted her head, affirming, "Yes, great!"
"Um…"
When Yun Zhourong met Ji Minxiu's gentle eyes, her heart skipped a beat again, and she quickly lowered her eyes.
As the car started and the bright headlights were turned on, and it sped off at an extremely high speed, Yun Zhourong instinctively gripped the seatbelt.
But his eyes were full of excitement and amazement. "It really moved! How did you do that, Snow Fairy?"
At least a horse-drawn carriage is pulled by horses, but this car has nothing in sight, yet it can move on its own.
"It is also powered, but instead of animal power, it is gasoline."
Ji Minxiu explained, "I'll send you some information about where gasoline comes from later. Anyway, it's all about the conservation of energy. Nothing can move on its own without a reason."
"I see. But it's really amazing that they were able to invent the car."
After Yun Zhourong finished speaking, she looked at the road in front of her and said, "These lights are so bright that I can see so clearly even at night. Moreover, this carriage is much more stable than a horse-drawn carriage, and it's also very fast!"
"Yes, the fastest this car can go is 250 kilometers per hour, which is what you call 500 li. Of course, that would be very dangerous. Under normal circumstances, it can go about 120 li per hour," Ji Minxiu said.
"One hour...that's half an hour and five hundred li...my god, that speed is amazing!" After exclaiming in amazement, Yun Zhourong immediately asked, "Then...won't this carriage get tired?"
Ji Minxiu shook his head, "As long as there is gasoline, it can generally keep going."
"It doesn't get tired at all! This is much better than oxen and horses. If it could be used at the post station, it would be much faster to deliver messages," Yun Zhourong said longingly.
Ji Minxiu nodded, "Yes, you're right. In the future, letters and things will be transported using various different vehicles."
"It's so convenient. If the Great Sheng Dynasty could have these vehicles, it would be so much easier to transport grain."
Yun Zhourong couldn't help but say, "Actually, many wealthy families in various places have stored grain, but because it's too far away, they can't transport it here. Otherwise, the expenses on the way would be a huge burden."
During the Dasheng Dynasty, transporting grain required carts, horses, and a large workforce, all of which consumed grain.
Just like in military campaigns, a lot of supplies are consumed along the way when they are transported.
But if it's a car, then only one driver needs to eat, and the rest can be used to fuel the car, which saves a lot of food.
