Just do it, and do it while your heart is hot.

"Xiu, you take Brother Qiu and Tianshuai with a basket on their backs to collect the blue ore discarded by others, the more the better." I looked at the three of them.

"Good! Let's go. Although Han Xiu didn't know what Feng'er was going to refine, as soon as he saw her shining eyes, he was full of passion and ambition.

I nodded and said to Qingqing: "Qingqing, I want you to find five pairs of leather gloves, five shovels, five bamboo mats, twenty thatched mats, and two hundred thin kitchen knives within an hour, is it difficult?" ”

Chu Shaoqing frowned and said, "The first few things are completely fine, but the back is a little difficult." Can the wind tell me what the last thing I have refined? If it's inside the knife, it's definitely not possible. ”

I shook my head and smiled, "You just tell the guards that what we want to refine is a kind of powder, and it has absolutely nothing to do with any knives." ”

Chu Shaoqing nodded and said, "Okay, that's no problem, you can find it in half an hour." Just wait for the wind. With that, he went out.

Seeing that they were all going out, I said to Qingge, "Qingge, can you help me go to the furnace room to have a look?" ”

Yue Qingge saw that Feng'er had arranged something for everyone to do, and left him alone, her heart was full of loss, and she was looking out of the door with gloomy eyes, and when she heard her say this, she suddenly smiled: "Okay." ”

Unexpectedly, last night's explosion was so powerful, not only destroying the entire furnace room, but also blowing up a pit more than one meter deep at the location of the iron-making furnace. Even the canal dug in the back of the house was blown up, and I was thrilled to see the mud on the freshly repaired channel and the spring flowing inside, because the water source was so close and abundant, and the location was so advantageous. Looking up at the sky again, there are no clouds, there will be no rain for at least three days, and the weather is ready.

Yue Qingge was worried that Feng'er would be sad and disappointed when she saw the furnace room that had been cleaned up into an open space, but after she came, the more she looked at it, the happier she became, and she touched her nose and laughed, becoming more and more curious. "Feng'er is so happy, what is the joy?" Yue Qingge asked softly.

"That's right, you'll find out in a moment. The time, the place, the people are all occupied by us, and it is difficult to succeed in this attempt! "Slut, let's see! I looked around and said darkly.

Soon, the ore they had found was piled up in the clearing, the size of half a room. I beckoned, "That's enough." Xiu, Brother Qiu, Tianshuai, you have worked hard! Sit down and take a break. ”

Yue Qingge saw the three of them sitting down and hurriedly handed them hot tea.

Qian Lie took the teacup and took a sip and said, "Lustful girl, thanks to you, others treat us as fools." You're responsible for picking up the faces we've lost. ”

Han Xiu smiled, "Yes, Feng'er. A lot of people are talking about us right now, waiting to see our group of jokes. It is said that my genius wife is not a problem here. He pointed as he spoke.

I walked over to Brother Xiu and sat down. "Be of good cheer. As long as there is no second deliberate destruction, this time I will not only fight for buns and fight for everyone's face, but I also want everyone to be famous all over the world. ”

Qian Lie looked at her waving left hand and said with a straight face: "It doesn't matter if you are famous or not, as long as you are not ugly, the world knows it." "In that case, wouldn't he have to wear a veil to cover his face when he goes out?

I tugged at the corners of my mouth twice and drooped my head. "Tianshuai, please have a little confidence in me, okay? Do I look like a big talker? ”

Qian Lie looked at her devastated appearance, and his heart was extremely happy. "You don't really look like a big talker, because all you say is crazy." By implication, you're a madman.

Damn, this guy learned so quickly, he actually dug a pit for me to jump, and the pig didn't live for three days, and he was impressed. "Hey, indeed, in the eyes of pigs, people's behavior is unreasonable." I sighed deliberately and shook my head helplessly. I have to be angry with you!!

Hahaha...... As soon as Han Xiu, Qian Qiu, and Yue Qingge heard this, they all burst into laughter without any image.

Qian Lie was spewing a fire of several thousand degrees, so angry that his nostrils were facing the sky, and his green tendons were exposed. "Ben...... Root...... You...... You ...... "Ben for a long time, you for a long time, he hung his head depressedly. It turned out that he and her third official showdown, not only did he not turn defeat into victory, but lost even more miserably. And she is more beautiful than every time.

Qian Qiu walked over and patted him on the shoulder. "Haha, eighth brother, admit defeat. In a war of words, you and Feng'er are not on the same level at all. ”

Qian Lie clenched his fists, his temples bulging. "Next time...... I'll definitely win her next time! He kicked the stone steps beside him fiercely.

Soon, Chu Shaoqing came back with three examiners carrying things on his horse.

"Feng'er, I found what you wanted. This is the invigilator in charge of our group, Lord Wang, Lord Li, and Master Pei. They're going to ask you something. ”

I nodded and stood up, nodding slightly, "Hello three adults." Sui Feng's right arm was injured and he couldn't salute, and he looked at the three adults, Haihan. ”

Lord Wang, who was the leader, said with a smile: "Miss Qin is strict." According to what Young Master Chu said, these things you want have nothing to do with the things that are finally refined. We want to make sure to make sure to you again, it doesn't matter if what you said is not what you found? ”

I nodded, "Yes, Lord Wang." ”

Lord Wang stroked his beard and nodded, "Okay, then we will leave." ”

"Three adults walk slowly." I nodded slightly, about to see them off. Master Li said: "Girl, stay here, let's hurry up." ”

"Thank you for your understanding." I bowed gratefully to the three of them.

Seeing that the three of them had gone.

I said to Qingqing: "Qingqing, how can we prevent our refining process from being probed by people with intentions, or even sabotaged again?" ”

Chu Shaoqing said: "Feng'er, don't worry, since last night, we have sent two hundred additional guards outside the courtyard, which are strictly guarded in three layers, and even a fly can't fly in." In the courtyard, all the people have been closely monitored by the secret guards, and no one wants to destroy them again. ”

That's fine. I said, "Now we're going to start." Come with me, each with a shovel! ”

I led them to the ditch and stood sideways. "From here dig me a trench three feet wide, beginning at a depth of one foot and gradually deepening into a slope, running longitudinally through the groove of the furnace room. Grasp the depth, and the end of the trench should be just above or slightly above the ground level of the yard in front of you. Note that this trench is dug in two sections, the front section starts from the beginning of the trench and ends at a length of three feet, and the depth is best controlled between one foot and one foot and three inches. After three feet away, continue to dig out the back section at a distance of one palm's width. The depth of the back section should be at least four and a half feet deep, and the distance of one palm's width at the end of the back section should not be dug through. I made a hole the size of a small bowl under each of the two earthen compartments between the trenches. After digging, use thin mud to support the soil on each side of the trench to ensure that it does not seep into the water. Is there a problem? ”

The five of them looked at each other and said, "No problem." ”

"Alright, let's get started. Hurry! I looked at the five of them and waved.

After confirming the width, Han Xiu started his head, and the four of them followed to dig up. I walked around the yard and calmly thought about what had happened from yesterday afternoon to last night.

I can't be sure if the red-clothed lady who fooled me to climb the mountain is Shi Feifei's person, but it is obvious that the dark shadow last night was assigned by her. Her heart is not ordinarily vicious, and her eyeliner is not ordinarily powerful, so she can call Qingqing away just when she was about to feed me the antidote. However, with her shrewdness, even if Qingqing had already fed me medicine, the poison on her lips would still cause me to fake my death, because she calculated that Qing and I would definitely kiss.

As an ancient, she was indeed very clever. Now that the furnace room has been blown up, the site has been cleaned up, and even any clues have been cleared up long ago. It's better to deal with her poisoning Qingqing, as long as she goes back and gets rid of the poison, and then pretends to be innocent to the end, no one can help her.

She is tough in the background, and if she comes to secretly let the killer of the ghost gate kill her, it will bring unbearable disasters to many people if she finds out. So far, she hasn't had any handle in my hand. It seems that it is only for the time being that she is proud.

However, if you can't help her, it doesn't mean that you can't help her father. I don't believe that her father has never been corrupt for personal gain and corrupted the law.

"Feng'er, we're done." Chu Shaoqing wiped his sweat and said to Feng Er, who was standing in the courtyard and contemplating.

"It's fast! It was completed much earlier than I expected. I said as I walked towards the ditch.

When I came to the edge of the trench and saw the depth and width and the thin mud on it, I was very happy. "I didn't expect you to not only do it quickly, but also do it so well, it's really ideal. Awesome, very good, pretty good! My admiration for you now is like a surging river. ”

Han Xiu smiled: "Don't be a sycophant. Let's talk about what to do next. ”

Well, I'm just habitually slapping a couple of sentences. I pulled my mouth in embarrassment and pointed to the ditch and said, "Now spread twenty mats in it." Note that the mat must cover all the mud in the groove on three sides. After the paving, 200 kitchen knives are placed on the mat in the back section. Be careful, don't cover up the two holes. ”

"Good. Brother Qian, Brother Qian, Brother Le, you can rest for a while. Let me and Brother Chu do it. Han Xiu washed his hands and said to the three of them.

"yes, you've all sweated a lot, so take a break." I saw that the three of them were tired and sweating, and hurriedly persuaded them.

Qian Qiu looked at Feng'er and shook his head with a smile: "It's okay." He had never worked so happily with his friends, and although he was a little tired, he was happy in his heart. He glanced at Qian Lie and saw that he had already crowded to the canal to wash his hands, and it seemed that he was quite motivated.

Yue Qingge looked at the emperor who was covered in mud but smiled very happily, and his admiration for him reached a new height. He never imagined that this high emperor would be so approachable.

In the end, none of the five people were willing to rest, and they all spread the mat and the knife according to the words of the wind.

"The edges of these kitchen knives are quite sharp, you must be careful not to hurt your hands." Watching them swing their knives quickly, I admonished.

"Got it." Qian Lie replied for everyone while swinging the knife.

About half an hour later, they were finished.

"Now, it's the final process. Xiu, Qingqing, you go and bring the blue mine back to the two baskets. Brother Qiu, Tianshuai, you wash the five shovels with mud, and you will use them later. Qingge went to find two small bowls and two washcloths, and by the way, brought the five pairs of leather gloves that Qingqing brought back before. ”

"Okay." Qian Qiu looked at Feng'er's red face, and his heart was sweet.

"Yes." Yue Qingge is also a man of action, so he rushed to the bedroom in response.

Wait until they're ready. I said, "Xiu, wet the washcloth and wrap it on top of the small bowl and plug it on the outside of the hole." Qingqing, pour the blue ore into the front ditch first. Qingge, when they are ready, put the water in the canal into the front section, don't put it too quickly, and plug the gap in the canal when it is full. Brother Qiu, Tianshuai, after Qingge is filled with water, use the wooden handle of the shovel to stir the blue ore to help it quickly dissolve in water. ”

The five nodded and divided their work.

When I saw the blue ore become a thick blue water solution, I was so excited that I burst into tears. Great, that's half the battle.

"Xiu, put on leather gloves, remove the small bowl in the front section, and put the blue water in the groove in the back section!"

"Yes!" Han Xiu quickly put on his leather gloves, removed the small bowl, and watched the thick blue water flow into the back section.

"That's it. Continuously pour ore, divert water, stir, and drain water until the rear trench is filled with mineral water. Is there a problem? I asked habitually.

"Nope!" Chu Shaoqing replied crisply.

After about three hours, the sky was already dark, and we finished the qiē.

"Now there is one last step, let's take five bamboo mats and cover them in the back of the trench, and then go back to rest. I stayed and guarded. ”

"No!!" The five big men vetoed with tacit understanding.

"Everyone is tired today, and I'm alone. Besides, I can't sleep even when I go back. If you can bring your bed and mosquito net here and lie down with me, I'm all right. "I'm just kidding.

"That's a good idea!" Qian Qiu said with a smile.

Soon, the five of them really moved the bed!! It really made me sweat.

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, two days and three nights passed.

The leaders of each group have handed over their group's efforts to the examiner.

Only our group didn't move.

In fact, I am not sure at all, because the time is too short, I don't know if the blue water has changed color, and how it reacts to the hundred kitchen knives.

Han Xiu frowned when he saw Feng'er, and his heart became even more nervous. "Is Feng'er worried about failure?"

I shook my head and said, "Time is too short, I'm not sure." If only you could give me another three days. ”

Chu Shaoqing said: "It's okay Feng'er, even if you really haven't refined anything, it doesn't matter. If we don't have enough time, we'll keep it for another three days, as long as it's as good as the wind says. ”

"yes, Feng'er. One of Bizet's purposes is to discover the most innovative alchemists, and we have never heard of this kind of alchemy. If we don't have enough time, we'll stay for a few more days. Qian Qiu fanned his fan and said.

"Thank you, I hope it works. Let's uncover the bamboo mat! With that, I walked over to the ditch, closed my eyes, and prayed.

Han Xiu and Chu Shaoqing glanced at each other, and then unveiled the bamboo mat.

After a long time, when I opened my eyes and saw the blue water that had faded significantly, I was ecstatic and jumped and exclaimed, "Yay! We did it!! ”

Qian Qiu was very strange, he didn't see anything, why did Feng'er know that he had succeeded?

"Repair, quick, quickly remove the small bowl on the outside and drain the water !!"

"Yes!" Han Xiu was also excited, he also wanted to see what had been refined.

Many people who saw the joke and were amazed were waiting in the courtyard, looking forward to it. If it weren't for the rules of the competition, before the alchemy is finished, the contestants and examiners are not allowed to watch and explore the alchemy process and alchemy venue of other competitors in any way and under any pretext, and it is estimated that they would have rushed to surround them.

After two cups of tea, I looked at the first kitchen knife, which was exactly what I expected, and its surface was red. Soon the second, third...... Until the blue water is finally released, the surface of each kitchen knife is red.

"Qingqing, put on leather gloves and take a knife for me." I said in a trembling voice.

"Yes." Chu Shaoqing said and put on gloves and jumped into the ditch. "Feng'er, give."

I took it and handed it to Qian Qiu. "Brother Qiu, do you know what the red thing on this knife is?"

Qian Qiu looked at the red and shining golden things in the sun and shook his head.

I said, "This is copper, and this iron knife is full of copper dust." Now, just scrape them off, smelt them, and cast them to make different copper products. This technology alone can depopulate the treasury of the Holy Heavens. ”

Qian Qiu was stunned when he heard this, and took two steps back. "Wind ...... Feng'er, you, you mean that the red powder on these 100 kitchen knives is all copper powder???? This, how is this possible? ”

By the same time, the other four had heard what I was saying.

Chu Shaoqing leaned against the ditch wall in shock. "Feng'er, you, are you telling the truth? These are all made from those waste ores, and the refining method is so simple. And they, they turned out to be second only to gold and silver??? ”

"Yes, this requires wet copper smelting. Those blue ores are actually gall alum with a very high copper content, and not only are they not waste ores, but on the contrary, they are extremely valuable copper ore water crystals. They are soluble in water, and can react with iron in a way you don't know about, and then produce red copper powder. Therefore, wet copper smelting can also be called bile water copper making. I slowly explained why. In fact, it is just a simple copper-to-iron displacement reaction.

"Feng'er is a well-deserved genius, a natural talent, a natural all-rounder!" Yue Qingge muttered.

This law is a top secret of the Holy Heavens, and this matter is very important, and it must not be made public casually.

Because this great discovery is enough to change the fate of any country.

"Feng'er, if I say don't hand over a hundred kitchen knives, can you agree?" Qian Qiu clenched his fists and asked pleadingly.

Brother Qiu inevitably wants to make a windfall? I grinned, "Now, each of the six of us knows how to do it. Everyone can make a fortune on it. As for whether to pay or not, let's vote by show of hands. Sooner or later, though, I'll have to report this method to the imperial court. There is no impermeable wall in the world, and once the emperor knows that we have made a fortune with this technology, we are all not far from death. ”

Qian Qiu had to admire Feng'er, it was rare for a fifteen-year-old girl to have such talent and foresight. "Feng'er is the greatest alchemist!" With that, he raised his hand.

Except for me and Xiu, the other three all raised their hands.

I nodded in disappointment. "Do you all want to make a windfall on this? This is completely contrary to my original intention of choosing this method, and I want to turn it in not only to save everyone's lives, but also for the entire people of the Holy Heaven. Ay...... Forget it, four against two, the minority obeys the majority. ”

Chu Shaoqing looked at the disappointed Han Xiu and Feng'er, and then looked at Qian Qiu for help.

Qian Qiu smiled: "Feng'er, don't worry." Brother Qiu definitely doesn't want to make a windfall with it, give me a little time, and I will definitely give you and Brother Han an explanation. ”

I looked at the eye contact between Chu Shaoqing and Brother Qiu, and suddenly remembered that he had mobilized two hundred soldiers for me yesterday, and my heart suddenly brightened. Presumably, this Brother Qiu must be a big man in the court.

"Okay. Then remove all these kitchen knives. Xiu, don't be discouraged, you can't enter the smelting room of the imperial court, let's go home and go into the cave room. I winked at Brother Xiu twice.

Han Xiu's face flushed and he lowered his head. Feng'er has spoken, what else does he mind.

"Haha......" I laughed and threw away the knife in my hand and walked straight to the outside of Bizet.
