Release that Witch - Chapter 194

[Chapter 193 Castle Bathroom]

The theatrical performance was a great success.

(August 1?<<Small[<say[(

Three performances of “Cinderella” in two weeks, many citizens watched it more than once. The two performances were completely self-made. Some citizens even went to the city hall to ask when the fourth performance would be performed.

This kind of response made Roland overjoyed. Everyone was completely attracted by the story, and almost no one raised any objections. Why did they help Cinderella? It was a witch. When “Midnight Crow” next month, it will almost be dedicated to poor people, and I don’t know what the serfs will think of the witch who helps them in the play. What

is also gratifying is that the crew is in the small Zhen settled down and accepted the existence of witches——After three performances, Irene took the initiative to find Roland and asked him why there was an “accompaniment” that suddenly sounded during the performance, and Roland introduced Echo to her

. Under Nightingale’s secret observation, although Irene was taken aback, she didn’t show any resentment or disgust. After recovering from her senses, she was very curious, asked around Echo, and asked her to demonstrate the phantom sound technique several times. Therefore, Echo also joined the crew and became the soundtrack master behind the scenes. In order to avoid accidents, Irene would rehearse alone with Echo only when she needed to match the sound effects. A play will reach a new height in the richness of sound effects.

Another thing to be happy about is that the castle is about to usher in the era of running water.

The towering water tower stands in the backyard of the castle, and the tower is welded by iron frames in a triangular shape , the top of the tower is connected to an iron barrel with a diameter of two meters and a height of three meters. There is a float valve in the barrel, which can control the height of the water surface very conveniently. The iron tower is welded by Anna, and then covered with an anti-rust coating by Soraya, and finally with the help of hummingbirds The

water tower in the backyard is taller than the one by the Chishui River, approaching 12 meters, almost level with the top of the castle. In order to prevent the water tower from collapsing, Roland also added wall parts to the tower to connect the water tower and the castle into a whole.

The steam engine was set up outside the backyard to supply water to the water tower, and the water source came from the well in the backyard of the castle.

After careful calculation, this is already the third generation of steam engine, and the biggest improvement is the great reduction of noise pollution.

At each connection point of the steam engine, gaskets are installed—this light blue gasket is exactly the color Soraya painted the sky. It is very soft and resilient, which makes the vibration and noise of the machine louder when it is working. for the drop.

The inside of the cylinder and the edge of the piston are covered with grass color, which reduces air leakage and improves work efficiency.

Vibration-prone parts, such as the exhaust duct, were all replaced with coated hoses.

In order to keep the steam engine out of the sun and rain, and to further isolate the noise, Roland also built a small room around it. The walls of the room were painted with a layer of honeycomb by Soraya as a porous sound-absorbing material.

The actual test results show that even if it is running at night, the noise of the machine will not wake up the sleeping people in the castle.

However, Roland’s attempt to make the steam engine feed automatically failed.

He originally thought that the valve of the wooden box would be controlled by the flying ball of the steam engine regulator. When the steam pressure drops and the flying ball closes, the valve will be opened to let the firewood in the wooden box roll into the furnace. It is very large, otherwise the weight of the flying ball cannot drive the valve.

After much deliberation, Roland decided to give up. The wooden box can be filled with firewood at most once, and it has to be filled manually after use. It is better to arrange for people to fill the water tank with water at regular intervals every day.

The last step is the water pipe into the home – including the installation of faucets, showers, pipes and corresponding drains.

Because the castle is not like the newly built brick houses in the community, these holes are left, and the roof and walls made of stones make it very troublesome to renovate. This step took nearly a week. For a better and happy life, Roland personally directed Karl Convert a room on the second and third floors into a bathroom.

Soraya’s new ability once again played a key role. After the floor where the drainage pipes were laid was brushed with cement, and then a thin layer of grass was painted on it. above.

After receiving this inspiration, Roland simply asked her to paint the entire room.

The ceiling is an open blue sky and clouds, the four walls can see the valley and greenery in the distance, and the four walls of the bathtub are crystal clear, like gems.

On the day the water system came into operation, the prince called all the witches into the bathroom to experience this great achievement.

The water tank in the backyard was already full of water, and when he turned on the faucet, water gushed out of the pipe.

“From today onwards, there is no need to bring water from the well,” Roland proudly announced, “You don’t have to return the bath water every three days, you just need to stand under the shower and flip the switch.”

“Huh? Where did the water come from?” Lightning stuck out his tongue and licked the endless drops of water, “It’s pretty sweet.”

Maggie poked her head out from under Lightning, and did the same thing over and over again, “It’s pretty sweet. !”

Roland held down the third Nana who wanted to move her head closer, “Anyone who wants to drink water must be boiled before drinking. The water flowing from here can only be used for washing hands and bathing.”

” This is… the siphon principle, right?” Anna looked at Roland, her lake-blue eyes sparkling.

“What’s that?” Hummingbird asked, raising his hand.

Under the training of Teacher Scroll, the witches in class have now formed the habit of raising their hands and asking questions.

“Elementary Physics says that when the liquid levels of two containers are different, use a pipe to connect the two liquids. No matter what the shape of the pipe is, under the action of the liquid’s own gravity, there will always be a liquid The movement tends to be flat.” Anna explained as she recalled, “Our position is lower than the water tower, so the water will continue to flow here.”

“Exactly correct,” Roland praised.

It is a genius to be able to connect the acquired knowledge with reality.

“What about this?” Nightingale pointed curiously at the high-hanging shower head, “Why does it have so many small holes at the bottom?”

Roland turned the valve to let tiny water droplets spray out, “For the convenience of taking a shower. .Just stand under the shower, and a person can easily clean his body.”

“So, you spent a week in the castle just to take a bath more comfortably?” Lily pursed her lips and said in a low voice, “As expected of a nobleman who likes extravagance.”

“Lily!” Scroll said with a frown.

“It’s okay.” Roland waved his hand, indicating that he didn’t mind. “The pursuit of enjoyment is one of the driving forces of human progress, and I am certainly no exception.” (To be continued.)
