"It's horrible, isn't it?" Qin Huaiyu looked at the mess all over the place, and couldn't help but smack his tongue.

In the back mountain, the fire is pervasive, from time to time bursts of flames erupt, accompanied by bursts of explosions, one by one Taoist priests holding a basin of water, lined up to relay to fight the fire, but unfortunately a drop in the bucket, it is difficult to work at all, coupled with the thick smoke, it is even more difficult to fight the fire.

"Why don't you let the believers from outside the temple come in, so that there will be more rescuers and a little faster firefighting." Cheng Chumo frowned.

Merton shook his head and said, "This place is a secret place, and the stakes are very large, and it is better to lose it all than to be exiled to the outside world." ”

Qin Huaiyu's hearts suddenly burst into their hearts, and they glanced at each other, and couldn't help but reveal a trace of shock, and suddenly knew that they had touched a big secret today.

"Besides, it's too late." Looking at the pervasive fire, Merton said gloomily.

He knows more about the flammability of gunpowder than others, once the gunpowder ignites, the fire caused will be irreversible, and there are so many raw materials hoarded here, most of which are flammable, and it is even more difficult to extinguish.

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! Lord Mo Shi is indeed a wise man. A heavy voice rang out behind the four.

Mo Dun Huo Ran looked back, a middle-aged Taoist priest in a Taoist robe stood behind him, it was Yuan Tiangang, the priest of Qintian, Yuan Tiangang's whole body was spotless, but the Taoist robe under his feet was covered with ashes, and he looked at the fire in front of him with a solemn face.

Although there was a trace of unbearability on his face, his eyes revealed firmness.

As a Taoist leader, he naturally knew how important it was to Li Shimin to know the gunpowder here, and since the accident had happened, what he could do was to try his best to make the final remedy.

"Master, the water crane from the Fire Administration Yamen has arrived, and it is required to enter the Xuandu Temple to extinguish the fire." At this moment, Li Chunfeng came in a hurry and came to report.

Yuan Tiangang's eyes lit up, and then he shook his head gloomily and said: "You go to reply to the Fire Administration Yamen, just say that the fire in Xuandu Temple has been controlled, and there is no need to worry about the Fire Administration Yamen." ”

Qin Huaiyu and the three of them looked at the spreading fire in front of them in a daze, and the Taoist priests who were holding wooden basins to extinguish the fire with their faces dirty, looked at the dignified Qintian priest wine in disbelief and said nonsense with their eyes open.

"This!" Li Chunfeng hesitated for a moment and said.

"You just do it, and you can do it for the teacher." Yuan Tiangang said resolutely.

Li Chunfeng gritted his teeth and was about to turn his head away, when suddenly Mo Dun said loudly: "Daoist Li stays, why don't you let Mo go and talk to the Fire Administration Yamen!" ”

Li Chunfeng turned his head to look at Yuan Tiangang, Yuan Tiangang nodded expressionlessly, and Li Chunfeng let go of his body.

Merton took Qin Huaiyu and the three of them to the main gate of Xuandu Temple, only to see that the chief of the Fire Administration Yamen was waiting anxiously at the door, extinguishing the fire is the duty of the Fire Administration Yamen, and the special status of the Xuandu Temple, if the fire is allowed to spread, there will be a major accident at that time, and he will not be able to finish eating and walking.

But he hurriedly came to put out the fire, but was blocked by Xuanduguan, if it weren't for Xuanduguan's special status, he would have ordered to break in.

"Lord Mo!" Seeing Morton coming, the chief's eyes lit up, he had seen Morton before, first helping the fire administration yamen to establish a city-wide early warning system, and then helping to improve the water dragon car, he was naturally impressed.

Merton walked in front and said, "You have worked hard, please stay outside the temple for the time being, and the water dragon car can be handed over to me." ”

"This!" The chief officials at the head were suddenly embarrassed, it was their responsibility to put out the fire, if it was left to the hands of others, so that if there was a problem, he would not be able to intervene.

Morton took a step closer and whispered, "Listen to what Mo said, there are some things, the less you know, the better. ”

The chief official's heart suddenly suddenly, and he suddenly thought of the strange performance of Xuandu Guan, so he suddenly made a decision, and waved his big hand: "Give the waterwheel to Lord Mo." ”

Soon, the four of Morton pulled the water dragon cars to the back mountain, under the guidance of Merton's hand, Qin Huaiyu and the four of them quickly got started, and soon the first water dragon car began to gush out of the water, and then one by one the water dragon cars sprayed out, and the fire of Xuanduguan was controlled.

"Drive!"

Outside the Xuandu Temple, a group of heavily armed cavalry rushed over.

"Hundred Riders!"

The chief official of the fire administration was shocked, as an official in Chang'an City, he naturally knew the dress of the hundred horses, and knew that the hundred horses were personally led by the emperor, and ordinary generals had no right to transfer at all, he did not expect that the fire in Xuanduguan could alarm the hundred horses.

Li Junxian turned over and dismounted, and when he saw the thick smoke coming out of the mountain behind the Xuandu Temple, he couldn't help frowning, and waved his big hand: "Immediately block the Xuandu Temple, from now on, the Xuandu Temple is allowed to enter but not to leave." ”

"Yes!" A team of hundreds of horsemen suddenly scattered, and the water around the Xuandu Temple was blocked.

The chief of the fire administration suddenly secretly lucked, he still had some doubts about Merton's words before, but now the doubts in his heart have long been gone, if they enter the Xuandu Temple to fight the fire, I am afraid that they are now trapped in the Xuandu Temple, and they can't help but feel a sense of gratitude to Merton in their hearts.

For the arrival of the hundred horses, neither Morton nor Yuan Tiangang was the slightest surprised, there was an accident in the gunpowder of Xuandu Temple, if Li Shimin did not send someone, then it would be strange?

Li Junxian looked at the ruins in the back mountain, and said coldly: "Pass on Your Majesty's message, go all out to rescue Xuandu Temple, and thoroughly investigate the responsibility for this fire." ”

"Where are the Shenxiao Dao people?" Li Junxian frowned and shouted.

Merton was also surprised, it was the Shenxiao Daoist who was responsible for making gunpowder, and from beginning to end, Merton had never seen the Shenxiao Daoist.

"Brother Shenxiao Daoist has already been feathered, at that time, the fire spread, Brother Shenxiao Dao didn't have time to escape, I'm afraid he has already been buried in the fire." The immortal son with an ash face mourned, if it weren't for the eldest son's voice, he wouldn't have recognized the immortal son who was usually immortal and immortal.

"Shenxiao Dao is dead!"

Merton's heart was shocked. Unbelievable.

"To live to see people, to die to see corpses." Li Junxian said in a cold voice.

Suddenly, a large number of soldiers rushed to the fire scene, orderly division of labor and cooperation, pieces of ruins were quickly sorted out, some embers were quickly extinguished, and at the same time, a terrible body was also carried out, a full thirty-five.

The whole scene was bleak, after a big explosion, it almost destroyed the Taoist Waidan sect, and only a small half of the people such as Changshengzi survived.

Merton shook his head secretly, although he knew that the formula of gunpowder must have been included in the palace by Li Shimin, but the loss of so many talents of the Taoist Wai Dan Sect could not be made up for for a long time.

At the same time, Mo Dun couldn't help but feel guilty in his heart, gunpowder is a Taoist thing, and the Mo family is naturally not easy to interfere, although he also reminded the Taoist Wai Dan faction to be careful, but it obviously did not work.

"If it ......"

As soon as this thought arose, Morton suddenly denied it in his heart, the Mo family was just a family, how could they do everything by themselves and take the credit.
