Chapter Seventy-Seven: Foothold

Between the peaks of Yunshan Mountain, it is the place where the two mountains are connected, and where the houses are located, there are people moving from time to time. Two houses, and smoke wafted from the cooking.

Wang Zhenren suddenly sighed: "Many years ago, it was so lively here. Then it slowly fell silent. Qin Xiucai, it was you who gave this place a new lease of life. Senior Brother Chang's heart also has refuge. In fact, he was not suitable for cultivation at all. ”

"Then why did he become a Taoist?"

"He and I were both raised by the Taoist, and if we don't become the Taoist, what are we doing?"

"Oh?" When it came to personal privacy, Qin Feng didn't ask.

Wang Zhenren took the initiative to explain: "Me and him, as well as some Taoist masters, were all exiled when they were young. Adopted by the Master as an adult. Growing up in childhood, when someone becomes an adult, someone leaves. Someone stayed behind and became the Taoist leader. Senior Brother Chang has liked to learn alchemy from other masters since he was a child, and he learned alchemy skills, only to find out in the end that it is all harmful things. The blow to my heart can be imagined. I repeatedly persuaded him to go down the mountain to live in Guanzhong, but he refused, so he stayed here and continued to toss around. I didn't expect to finally wait until you had to appear, it's really fate. ”

"Oh, then, I see a lot of Taoist children in the view, all of them are adopted?"

"Not necessarily, poor families who can't afford to raise children are also sent to Guanli." Wang Zhenren frowned and said, "Every time you go out to travel, you will bring one or two children back. Occasionally, there are also abandoned babies placed in front of the gate, and those who cultivate the Tao can only take them and raise them. The baby girl was fostered in a nearby home, and the baby boy grew up in the view. Fortunately, Qingfengguan has more than enough financial resources and can afford it. However, in recent years, there have been more and more lonely children outside, and it is difficult to save all of them. ”

"If the world is in turmoil, and people are like ants, who can protect whom?" Qin Feng comforted: "If you can save one person, it's one person." ”

"Will there be chaos in the world?"

"Yes! Heaven is evil, or not a single grass grows, or floods for thousands of miles. People do evil, lives are miserable, and the people are miserable. The world will be in chaos! ”

"If the world is in chaos, how can Qin Xiucai deal with himself?"

"Be brave and get rid of the word! The world is bound to be in turmoil, and it will be very fast. What I want to do is what I am doing now, and I will do my best to have the power to protect myself and the people around me! ”

Xu Qiming's eyes froze, and his face was thoughtful.

Wang Zhenren hesitated for a moment and said, "I hope that Qingfeng Guan can avoid disaster." ”

A few people were talking, and when they walked into the courtyard of the house, a Taoist came in a hurry and saluted: "It turned out to be the Lord of the Temple, Chang Dao Chang is doing things in the mountain col, I will call him." Wang Zhenren nodded.

Qin Feng also walked up to follow, walked to the edge of the mountain stream, and stopped. Watching the Taoist walk down the rugged mountain road, Qin Feng pointed to the mountain stream and the Grand Canyon and said to Xu Qiming: "When the militia was originally preparing to be established, Shu Zicheng said that the militia could purchase weapons in the arsenal or build it on its own. However, firearms must be better managed, and the powder magazine of the Xiang army exploded last year, killing and wounding dozens of non-commissioned officers. Chang Dao Chang has been alchemizing all year round, and he is very familiar with gunpowder, explosions, etc., and he is configuring the new gunpowder of the Westerners, so I plan to build the gunpowder magazine in this canyon. ”

Xu Qiming looked around, nodded and said, "Very good, inaccessible, the place is big enough, and there is a water source." It can be safe. ”

"Since the powder magazine is here, then the musket making and the iron-making blast furnace are also placed here. This canyon is more than ten miles, one or two miles wide, and it is more than enough to establish several arsenals. With such geographical conditions, with your technology, with our resources, this Yunshan Arsenal. It is more than one or two grades higher than the Hanyang Arsenal. ”

"Hanyang Arsenal?" Xu Qiming didn't know why.

"It was before, a place far away, called Hanyang, the western side. The people there are fighting and making muskets, and their production conditions, resources, are far worse than ours. Initially, they did not have the ability to make gun barrels, so they had to secretly buy them back from other places and ship them into Hanyang. But even so, they still won the war. ”

"Who will our militia fight with in the future?"

"Whoever bullies us, we will beat him!" Qin Feng said with a smile: "We will not take the initiative to look for enemies, our militia is to protect us and protect here." ”

Wang Zhenren said: "Mingzhe protects himself? The world is in chaos, and there are eggs under the nest? Qin Xiucai didn't think about more? ”

"I thought about it, first of all, I have the ability to protect myself, and then I will help others. The premise of opening peace for all generations is that we have to live to have the opportunity to open peace. ”

Qin Feng's gaze moved to the stone houses at the bottom of the canyon, and the Taoist who had just gone down turned into a small gray figure, and after a while, another gray figure followed him. Two gray-robed shadows came up the mountain road.

Wang Zhenren sighed softly: "This cloud mountain, there will be no quiet in the future." However, Qin Xiucai, the world will be in chaos in the future, if you can. Please be sure to keep this cloud mountain and keep the Qingfeng Temple. ”

"Wang Zhenren really wants to have confidence in me?"

"Because no one else, thinks of what you think of, does what you are doing. And I agree with you, this world is going to be chaotic! People who have no long-term worries must have near-term worries. Qin Gongzi, you let it go. ”

Chang Dao Chang came up from the bottom of the canyon, his face was slightly ruddy, and his breath was still steady and long. When he came up, he laughed a few times: "Qin Xiucai, don't come to harm?" ”

Qin Feng said with a smile: "Chang Dao Chang is really immortal wind Dao bones, walking up the mountain so quickly, his breath is not chaotic, and his face does not change. ”

"You have to go up and down a few times a day, and it's the same! Senior brother, why don't you arrange for Qin Xiucai to rest and drink tea and wait for me? ”

"I just came out to greet us, but I didn't see anyone who could instruct us to bring us tea and water." Wang Zhenren said to Qin Feng again: "Look at him this time, is his spirit ten times better than last time?" I used to say that he was decadent, and he was not convinced! ”

"Let's go, Qin Xiucai, senior brother, hey, this one?"

"Xu Qiming, the chief ordnance master of my militia group, you will have more time to deal with in the future. Let's go, let's find a place to sit down and talk. ”

A Taoist was busy and brought tea and some fruits. Several people sat down in the courtyard at will, and they no longer lined up as the main and guest seats.

Chang Dao Chang opened his mouth and said, "Qin Xiucai, the recipe you said is right!" I didn't expect cotton to explode, and the power was much greater than gunpowder! It's just too unstable, and we're trying to add the stability substance you said. It's already a bit of an eyebrow. ”

"The proportion of the formula must be determined, and the proportion of at least two gunpowders must be determined accurately, one is the ...... used as the initiating drug"

Xu Qiming listened with great interest, and later began to raise some gunpowder questions. Seeing that the three of them were discussing the gunpowder with great interest, Wang Zhenren couldn't interject, so he was responsible for refilling the tea for everyone. Pouring tea for leisure, the real person looked at Qin Feng from the side and talked eloquently, and his hand was put in his sleeve and began to calculate......

I heard that Qin Feng planned to build the blast furnace and arsenal of steelmaking in this canyon. Chang Dao Chang said diligently: "Now it's okay, I'm relieved." I'm afraid that Qin Xiucai will wake up these days and give up halfway. Then my painstaking stuff will be useless. I also pulled Daochang Zhou and Daochang Qiu to come to me. The two of them are now very depressed, and they are arrogant. But they are all masters of alchemy furnace and fire! Zhou Daochang made a closed blast furnace, which can be called the first in the world. ”

Qin Feng's face twitched: Pressure cooker? High-pressure furnace? Those who make alchemy are talents!

I also heard Chang Daochang continue: "Qiu Daochang is good at water, bone water, gold erosion water, and explosive water, he can match it." ”

Qin Feng was shocked and said, "Master of Chemistry! This water is dangerous, so be careful! ”

"After so many years of alchemy, what danger have you never seen? Qin Xiucai rest assured, they are still counting on you to give them a real person! With the addition of officials and generous officials, how can you easily kill yourself? ”

"Me? Seal them as real people? Gain official loyalty? I am a militia commander, who are you and me? Chang Dao Chang, this wish cannot be made indiscriminately. ”

"You don't fool me, what you said last time, these skills. It can go to the moon for nine days, and it can go down to the five oceans to catch turtles. Time and space shift, turn things around! Is this what the commander of a militia wants to do? Chang Dao grew a few strands of beard and curled: "We outsiders, look at you, we can see clearly." ”

Qin Feng said helplessly: "I really, I just want to have the ability to protect myself and the people around me." No matter what I can do in the future, I will not start a war lightly and cause a fight, because turmoil will be a catastrophe for the people. ”

Wang Zhenren said: "Qin Xiucai, when you have this ability, you are qualified to challenge. Even if you don't want to, it's hard to sleep. Whether you fight or not, I'm afraid that you can't help it. Moreover, in the troubled times, it is the blessing of the people of the world to have the ability to turn the tide. ”

Xu Qiming said: "I have also read all the things in the world, and I have made friends with Westerners everywhere, and there is a big world outside Dahua." The place where mortals live is not the order of the capable, and the dwelling of the capable. Seeing that the building is about to fall, it is time for our generation to do something. ”

Chang Daochang waved his hand: "Qin Xiucai asked me to find a capable person in the past, and the money was arbitrary." These two Taoist chiefs want silver and money, eat and drink well. also needs a real name, plus official Houlu. But people also make it clear that if you can do it in the future, you will give it. I can't do it, when I didn't say it. At the moment, as long as you make a promise, I think it is reasonable, and I will answer it for you. That's why people go to great lengths to do things. ”

Qin Feng smiled: "Empty checks! Yes! I agreed. If you have it, give it, if you don't, don't ask for it! ”

Xu Qiming smiled: "If it happens here!" I guess there must be! When the time comes, how about Brother Qin give me the name of the world's number one armor master? ”

"Haha, okay! It's a blank check, but if I'm qualified to give it to you, I'll do what I say. "Qin Feng promised without any pressure.

Xu Qiming asked: "What is a blank check?" ”

......

Only when you have a vision for the future can you be motivated. Qin Feng will not stubbornly break other people's dreams, and Qin Feng does not want to be an emperor. People who have traveled back in time cannot rule a country, and they are embarrassed to show off that they are time travelers!

Qin Feng is to master an invincible army and countless amounts of money.

With these two things, you can be above the emperor! If you don't be the emperor, you won't be bound by the emperor's rules, the emperor's reputation, and the emperor's responsibilities!

However, it can make the emperor bow down! You can abolish the emperor and set up the emperor again!

This is more comfortable than being an emperor!

Moreover, there is no need to provoke disputes, no wars, and no need for ordinary people to suffer from the flames of war.

However, there is no way to explain this.

Well, if you want to be qualified to decide the ending, you have to get your feet on the ground first!
