Although the black powder of later generations was gradually eliminated, but still exerted earth-shattering power, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in later generations used black powder to attack the city, dug a tunnel to bury the gunpowder under the city wall, and then filled the secret passage, and then detonated, except for the super city such as Nanjing and Beijing, the ordinary city wall is as fragile as a piece of paper, which is also the biggest reason why the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is invincible from south to north.

Merton did not throw out all the powerful weapons of the later generations at once, even this time the explosion of the gunpowder altar was thunderous, it looked powerful, but the real lethality was insufficient, if you want to really develop a powerful weapon, it is a matter for the military.

"Hahaha, it's really God bless Datang, and the gods descended from heaven on my Datang!" Li Shimin's heart was extremely happy, such a powerful force actually subverted Li Shimin's understanding of weapons.

The Wai Dan sect was also like a storm in their hearts, it turned out that their path was really wrong, although the Wai Dan was harmful to the human body, there was no doubt that the Wai Dan Dao Technique was indeed an extremely useful knowledge, they never thought that they could control such a powerful power in their own hands.

Of course, the most regrettable thing for them was that this power was not the power of heavenly thunder, but it further proved that they were wrong to use this method to pursue the path of immortals.

Merton took the opportunity to persuade and said: "You Dao masters have also seen the power of this thing, the Taoist Wai Dan is a line of knowledge through the sky, what is explored is the secret between heaven and earth, if you hide your full of knowledge in the mountains, wouldn't it be a great waste." ”

The Taoist leaders couldn't help but waver, yes! At this moment, the Mo family showed him a broad road that they had never discovered, and given time, his achievements may not be lower than those of the Neidan faction.

Li Shimin was also in a hurry, since this thing has such a powerful power, and these alchemy sects know the formula of gunpowder, of course Li Shimin also wants to catch it all and serve the country.

"It's just that what we are pursuing is the way of immortality, this thing is too tyrannical, and it will inevitably kill countless beings in the future, and it will only increase the karma of sin!" A gray-haired Taoist priest shook his head and said.

To be able to become the leader of a place in the Taoist lineage, their vision will naturally not be bad, at a glance they can see that the biggest use of this thing is military weapons, and they will definitely kill countless people in the future, Taoists believe that good will be rewarded, evil will be rewarded, if gunpowder is popular in the world, and they may also be implicated.

As soon as this Taoist priest said this, all the Waidan sects suddenly flinched, although they were confirmed to be wrong in the theory of the Waidan sect, but their pursuit of immortality did not change at all, if it affected their Taoism, their hearts were also very resistant.

Merton froze when he heard this, he didn't expect these people to be so stubborn.

"The Dao of Sin is willing to be blamed for developing the way of gunpowder for His Majesty." Suddenly, Shenxiao Daoist came out of the ranks, he didn't have much heart for the Dao, otherwise he wouldn't have been deceived by gunpowder, anyway, he had been exposed, if he could be valued by the emperor, it would not be impossible to soar.

Immortal Dao's heart moved, but when he thought that he was not good at this, and he had the secret technique of dyeing hair as capital, he quietly retreated to the footsteps of stretching out.

Seeing this, Li Shimin immediately glanced at Shenxiao Daoist with appreciation, he is the best at the method of subduing fire, and it is naturally more suitable to have him in the lead.

Shenxiao Dao Leader looked at the Wai Dan sect, and couldn't help but snort coldly in his heart, and said secretly: "You all know the method of ambushing fire, such a powerful weapon, how can Your Majesty let you go easily." ”

The Waidan faction also obviously figured out the reason, and they were in a dilemma for a while.

Merton laughed, and said in a round: "Refining gunpowder, there is a Shenxiao Taoist can be a person, all the Taoist masters have learned, study the sky, and naturally use it, the little nephew heard the famous saying of the Taoist, Dansha burns into mercury, and the accumulation changes into Dansha, although the poison of mercury is harmful to the human body, although this party cannot make people immortal, but it is not the way of material longevity." ”

The Waidan faction nodded one after another, this is indeed one of the theories of the Waidan faction.

Merton continued: "The kid got an inspiration because of this, since the Taoist Taoist technique can be restored with cinnabar, it can naturally restore other substances! ”

Li Shimin and the other Waidan factions suddenly looked sideways, puzzled by the meaning of Merton's move.

Merton said: "In the process of steelmaking in Mojia Village, it was found that steel is very easy to rust, and the iron tools that are discarded by rust every year in Datang are counted, not to mention that the steel that has rusted since ancient times is enough to reach the production of Datang for thousands of years." If you can imitate the way of cinnabar immortality, develop the way of eternal life of steel, and reduce rusted iron and scrap iron into pig iron, it will be a great thing for the benefit of all people. ”

As soon as Merton's voice fell, Li Shimin suddenly felt happy in his heart, iron is the important weapon of the country, but the annual steel production of Datang is in short supply at all, which causes the price of iron to be expensive, especially after the large use of steel in Mojia Village, the supply and demand of iron are even tighter.

If Taoism can really reduce scrap iron into iron, it is simply great news for Datang, no less than adding a large iron mine to Datang, and this iron mine can never be exhausted for generations, and this party is not groundless, Taoism has already had a successful case.

The Daoists of the Waidan Sect frowned suddenly, it is not impossible to say this, but let them do the work of recycling waste products, they always have some unwillingness in their hearts.

Merton said proudly: "In this way, the Taoist Inner Dan School pursues the way of human immortality, and the Wai Dan School pursues the way of material immortality, and the achievements of Taoism in the future will be unprecedented and unprecedented." ”

Suddenly, the entire Waidan faction was dead silent, and their hearts were suddenly like a flame, Yuan Tiangang wiped out the Waidan faction, how could they be unwilling in their hearts, if they could let the Taoist Waidan faction rise again and prove themselves again, it was their lifelong wish!

"The kid knows that if you want to continue to study the Waidan, it's not impossible, but alchemy is a very money-consuming thing, and you have lost the worship of the world, I'm afraid you will already be stretched thin by then!"

Merton said quietly, and dealt a fatal blow to the Wai Dan faction, the pill refined by the Wai Dan was poisonous at the moment, and naturally he lost all his believers, just a few of them, the old, weak, sick and disabled, how could they afford such a large consumption.

"If you can stay, the two Mo Dao families cooperate, you study Taoism, and the Mo family is responsible for turning it into a way to benefit the country and the people, wouldn't it be a great good. As for the things you need, wouldn't it be of great benefit to you to supply them with the power of the court? Merton said.

"Raise the power of the dynasty to supply!" The Waidan faction was dumbfounded, and couldn't help but look at Li Shimin on the side.

Li Shimin waited for Merton to glance at him hatefully, this kid had a good idea, benefited himself, and let me pay for it, but at this moment, he still didn't care about settling accounts with Merton, and immediately said with a straight face: "What you have done is a major matter that benefits the country and the people, and I will definitely support it." ”

Although Li Shimin's heart was dripping with blood, he was still extremely happy, but how much money could these Taoist monks spend on alchemy, not to mention anything else, just taking gunpowder and the technology of recycling scrap iron was enough to make him a hundredfold return.

"I'll do as I was told!" The Wai Dan sect said in unison.

The predicament of the Waidan faction, the prospect of cooperation between the Mohists and the Daoists, and Li Shimin's promise, the Waidan faction had no choice but to cooperate with the Mohists.
