C1004 An Urgent Need
"Master, where did you go today? I have been looking for you for a long time."
Lin Shu asked as soon as they returned to the inn.
"Yi, who is this kid? Why does he call you master?"
Lin Yi introduced them again.
"Sure, you really surprised me. I really look forward to seeing how many surprises you have for me and your mother."
Lin Yi said with a smile.
"Then you have to prepare well. There are many things that can surprise you."
"I still have things to do. You guys stay here first. I will come back after I finish my business."
After saying that, Lin Yi walked towards City Lord's Mansion.
"City Lord Hong, what are your plans now?"
Lin Yi went straight to the point when he saw Hong Baishi.
Hong Baishi's face was haggard. It could be seen that he had put a lot of effort into this matter.
"You are right. Yesterday, I sent someone to investigate. Sure enough, the floating mechanism below has started to rot, and there is at most one month left."
"What? It's so serious?"
Lin Yi frowned, feeling shocked in his heart.
Hong Baishi said with a sigh.
"Ai, that's right. The situation is more serious than we thought. Besides, many of the land outside the Mechanical City have sunk to the bottom of the ocean. Eventually, it will slowly erode the Mechanical City."
Lin Yi couldn't help but think of Ren Zhicun and Ren Erhu who were in the tiger clan.
"City Lord Hong, since we already know that the outer region has fallen, we should put the people in the outer region into the Mechanical City. We can't die without saving them."
Hong Baishi was silent when he heard this. The people in the outer region were called peasants by the people in the city. They might not have the magnanimity to ask them to save these people. Furthermore, the news would definitely be leaked if they let the people outside in.
Lin Yi saw that Hong Baishi was still hesitating and immediately knew what he was thinking.
"City Lord Hong, I know that you have divided everyone into different levels. But don't forget that they are also human beings. They also have the right to live, and this matter cannot be covered by paper. Time is of the essence, so we have to come up with a plan as soon as possible. "
Hong Baishi said.
"I understand. I am being too narrow-minded. I will order my men to open the gate and bring them in."
Hong Baishi seemed to have aged a few years because of this matter.
"City Lord Hong, do we really have no other way?"
Lin Yi asked.
Hong Baishi shook his head, his face was filled with helplessness.
Just at this moment, Lin Yi suddenly remembered the scene when he saw the sunlight shining into the ocean yesterday.
"City Lord Hong, is there any way to fly?"
Hong Baishi had a puzzled expression.
"Fly? Fly up? "
Lin Yi said.
"The Thousand Chance Island is located inside the tornado. It is surrounded by hurricanes, but there is no danger above our heads. So, what I want to say is to fly out from the eye of the hurricane above our heads."
Hong Baishi was stunned. He had lived here for so many years. Everyone here had a fixed thought, that was, they couldn't get out no matter what. But now, Lin Yi's words had enlightened him.
"That's right. Why didn't I think of that? Yes, yes, yes. We should have a way to fly out of this eye of wind. I will order people to start designing flying equipment now."
Seeing Hong Baishi leave with a passionate heart, Lin Yi felt relieved.
In the afternoon, everyone on the island knew about the crisis on the island. All of them had entered the Mechanical City.
Hong Baishi even posted a notice to search for capable people, asking them to design flying equipment.
In an instant, everyone on the island twisted into a rope, and all kinds of drafts flew to City Lord's Mansion.
On Lin Yi's side, since the last time Murong Xiaoxiao saw Shangguan Xue'er, this made Lin Yi not dare to go back at all. As long as he went later, he would be forced to marry, and no matter how Lin Yi explained it, it was useless no matter how he said that he already had a few wives. He didn't know what kind of ecstasy Shangguan Xue'er had given Murong Xiaoxiao.
Lin Yi stayed in City Lord's Mansion all day long, checking the blueprints every day. After a week, Lin Yi finally found a perfect blueprint, but what surprised Lin Yi was that this blueprint was actually designed by Ren Erhu.
"Erhu!"
Very quickly, Lin Yi found Ren Erhu.
"Lin Yi? Why are you here?"
"The reason why I'm here is because your blueprint has passed the test. Pack up and prepare to report to City Lord's Mansion and start the real production. Whether we can escape or not will depend on you."
Ren Erhu heard this and was filled with excitement.
"Really? This is great! I'll go right now!"
At this moment, there were already many tribes outside the Mechanical City that had sunk into the ocean. And as time passed, the territory outside was also shrinking rapidly.
When Ren Erhu's blueprint passed, almost everyone was called to work as laborers, but no one said anything. They all knew that this was saving their lives.
Very soon, Ren Erhu's flying device was built. After testing the flying device, they found that the flying height was still far from enough.
Ren Erhu's flying device was like a helicopter. There were propellers on it. His power depended on human strength. Because it was a small gear that drove the big gear, it consumed a lot of physical strength. For a moment, it returned to the starting point.
Lin Yi already knew this problem when he tested it previously.
"Erhu, you don't have to be depressed. I know you have a flaw in this, but it doesn't matter. I have already thought of a good idea."
A glimmer of hope rose in Ren Erhu's eyes when he heard this.
After that, Lin Yi added a hot air balloon into the flying device, and changed the one that could only bring one person into a group of ten. A group of ten people changed a lot of mechanical structures. Each round required two people to operate it. After the five of them were done, they basically went out.
Lin Yi's method was quickly put into practice. In the end, they really flew out of the range of the tornado.
"Lin Yi didn't expect you to have such an ability. I, Ren Erhu, admire you."
Lin Yi looked down at the island that was the size of an ant on the flying device.
"Erhu, if it wasn't for you guys, I wouldn't have completed it so quickly. Alright, since the test flight has been successful, let's go down and start mass production."
"Okay, let's go down now."
The moment the flying device landed on the island, many people cried. Their ancestors had lived here for generations. This was their hometown. However, they always wanted to go out. This place was like a prison cell. They couldn't go out after coming in.
