Chapter 756: Taiyi Divine Thunder Fried Fish
"Your Majesty, Master Hou, there is a waterhole twenty zhang ahead, and there are more fish!"
A forbidden soldier who went to the front to investigate waded along the mountain stream and came back to report it.
"Haha, okay, I'm going to make more nets today, and bring it back to the palace for you to taste!" Qin Shi Huang stood up happily and set off with fishing nets, obviously wanting to carry out the profession of fisherman to the end.
Xuanwuwei and Chen Xu and the others could only hurry up and follow.
Stepping on the high and low stones in the stream, I zigzagged forward about twenty zhang, and sure enough, I saw a waterhole again, and the stream hit down from the cracks of several boulders, and washed out a waterhole in the mountain stream.
But when they saw this pool, a group of people were a little dumbfounded.
Qin Shi Huang didn't know what to do with the fishing net.
Because the area of this waterhole is too small, the radius is only three or five zhang, and the waterhole is surrounded by large stones in addition to the lush aquatic plants, even the bottom of the waterhole, and the pool is still very deep, the deepest part is estimated to be more than one zhang, through the clear pool water, you can clearly see that there are countless fish gathered in the stone crevices under the waterhole swimming back and forth.
It is said that it is better to retreat and close the net.
But the situation in front of me is that there are fish and nets, but I can only look at them dryly.
A group of people stared at each other, Qin Shi Huang still hung the net after observing for a long time, and chose a place that felt suitable to cast the net, only to see the fishing net spread out above the waterhole, but part of it hung on the water weeds, and the other part fell on the big stone by the waterhole, and the remaining part fell into the water, and it can be clearly seen that the net feet did not even fall to the bottom, and the fish at the bottom of the potential water were slightly shocked and calmed afterward.
"Aiqing, this waterhole is too small to be fished, so it's better to find a bigger pool!" Qin Shi Huang shook his head regretfully after putting away the fishing nets.
Chen Xu looked up at the surrounding environment, at this time it was already nearly a mile deep canyon, the mountains on both sides of the stream were very complicated, the trees were towering and thorny, the ancient vines hung on the cliffs, and the occasional roar of wild beasts could be heard between the mountains, it was not safe to continue to enter the mountain without full preparation, not to mention that Chen Xu was also worried about the safety of the group of children hiding around, it was almost summer, there were many poisonous snakes and poisonous insects in the mountains, and it would be a big trouble if it was bitten.
"Your Majesty, the more you walk into the mountains, the narrower the mountain streams become, the more dense the boulders, and it is not easy to find the waterholes that are easy to get into the net. Chen Xu hurriedly said.
"Alas!" Qin Shi Huang also knew that what Chen Xu said was right, so he sighed regretfully and untied the net rope on his wrist and threw it to a group of gentlemen and said: "What I just said is still counted, whoever catches the fish in this waterhole will be rewarded with a knight!" ”
But Meng Yun and the others looked at this small waterhole with complex terrain, and they all frowned and remained silent.
With such a deep pool, it must be hopeless to jump down and catch it.
Even with fishing nets, there is still no hope, not to mention that they will not cast the net, and even if they can, this pool net will not be able to cast.
The second generation of this group of officials led by Meng Yun is almost the epitome and representative of the princes and princes of the entire Great Qin Empire, all of whom are now the chief officials in charge of the three provinces and six departments above the court, and they are also the important ministers that the emperor relies on, and this group of young emperors is naturally familiar.
Especially Meng Yun, who is still his son-in-law, is married to the fourth princess Ying Liyan, but the daughter who married out of the water, the princess's status and status in this era is not high, the main thing is to maintain a blood relationship with the heavenly family, like a gift to reward the important courtiers, in order to tie these civil and military ministers and the royal family together with the identity of relatives.
It's like marrying the fifth princess Ying Shiyan to Chen Xu.
The purpose is very clear, and the family affection is very weak.
After these daughters got married, the emperor almost never asked, but only went back to the palace to visit relatives during the New Year's holidays, but it was just a formality, not to mention the strong family affection between father and daughter.
At present, the court is stable, a group of princes and princes are almost all heroes who helped to lay down the Great Qin Dynasty, and the emperor is also quite enlightened and benevolent, without the slightest intention of hiding rabbits and dead dogs, as long as there is no rebellion, the emperor is not bad to the heroes, and has never killed any of the founding heroes.
Therefore, from this point of view alone, Qin Shi Huang's personality value is enough to crush almost all the founding kings of later generations.
And this is also the reason why all the emperors of later generations did not dare to arrogantly surpass the ancestral dragon.
The greatness of Qin Shi Huang's position in Chinese history is not only as simple as the first unification of China, but his full personality charm that later generations of kings can only admire and worship, and cannot surpass.
Just like some people in later generations continue to speculate, if Qin Shi Huang did not die so early, how could there be a later Xiongnu bullying the Central Plains, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had absolutely no chance to be promoted to an equal position with Qin Shi Huang, you must know that the Xiongnu were beaten in the hands of Qin Shi Huang and fled out of Henan, and in the Han Dynasty, the Huns made a comeback and occupied Henan and began to constantly harass the Central Plains, and the land of Lingnan was also conquered and incorporated into the Chinese territory in the hands of Qin Shi Huang, and after the Han Dynasty, Nanyue was annexed, This allowed the Han Dynasty to get a large area of land without the slightest effort, and if it really wanted to send troops to conquer Nanyue, I don't know how many people the Han would die and how much food and time it would cost.
Qin Shi Huang's personality charm determined that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were basically obedient to him, and the group of gentlemen in front of him had a kind of worship and admiration for Qin Shi Huang from the bottom of their bones.
The emperor's reward is naturally the supreme glory, but catching fish is indeed not their forte, their forte is the little lady who eats, drinks and has fun.
"Master Hou......" A gentleman turned his head to look at Chen Xu.
Chen Xu's face shook slightly: "Don't look for me, I can't help such deep water." ”
"Hehe, Master Hou must have a way, you are a disciple of the Immortal Family......" Another gentleman also squeezed up with a shy face.
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but light up, including Qin Shi Huang, who looked at Chen Xu with great energy.
"Brother-in-law, if you have a way, just help us, get your majesty's reward, I invite you to play in the nightless street......" Meng Yun even began to seduce Chen Xu with beauty, but then thought that his father-in-law, the First Emperor, was still standing next to him, and quickly covered his mouth in fright.
But a son-in-law and a son-in-law are not the same.
Qin Shi Huang obviously didn't look down on Meng Yun, a son-in-law who did not seek progress, but was satisfied with Chen Xu, the son-in-law of the disciple of the Immortal Family, to the extent of one hundred plus one, and walked to Chen Xu's side with a smile and pointed to the waterhole and said: "There are hundreds of fish in this waterhole, if you can catch them all, everyone will definitely be able to have a full meal today, if Aiqing has a way, she will show it, and by the way, it will also open my eyes!" ”
As soon as the emperor said this, a group of gentlemen suddenly became excited, and even more than a dozen Xuanwu guards who had been standing around on guard and never cared about fishing turned their heads to look at Chen Xu.
The disciples of the Immortal Family are fishing, and I don't know what kind of scene it will be.
"This ......" Chen Xu hesitated for a long time, but looking at the expectant expressions of the emperor and a circle of people, he finally nodded and said: "Since Your Majesty wants to see it, the minister will use the Taiyi Divine Thunder to perform a spell of deep water fried fish, but fishing with this spell will not only destroy the environment, but also hurt the heavens and harmony, and the minister will only perform it once, and after watching it, I hope everyone will not spread it!" ”
"This is natural, Aiqing rest assured!" Qin Shi Huang nodded excitedly in an instant.
The prestige and power of the Taiyi Divine Thunder have been heard by the emperor many times.
The first time was the time when I traveled southeast and encountered in Wancheng, and the Taiyi Divine Thunder fell from the sky and blew up a Taiyi Divine Monument.
The second time was when Chen Xu tested the grenade outside the east gate of Xianyang for seven consecutive explosions, which alarmed almost the entire Xianyang City, and the consequence was the birth of a Taiyi Temple with flourishing incense.
The third time was when he returned to Nanyang to marry, he used Taiyi Shenlei to blow up a group of mountain bandits, and easily attacked the mountain bandits' lair.
The fourth time is to repair the Eastern Dao and use the Taiyi Divine Thunder to blow up the mountain and change the bend and straighten.
But Qin Shi Huang had never seen all the scenes of the Taiyi Divine Thunder with his own eyes, but in view of Chen Xu's mysterious attributes, Qin Shi Huang still endured it even if he wanted to see it, and did not ask Chen Xu to demonstrate it to him.
Today finally had the opportunity to see the power of Taiyi Divine Thunder, Qin Shi Huang naturally refused to let it go, especially now in this big mountain, the location is hidden enough.
Chen Xu looked around, then pointed to a big stone a few zhang away and said, "Your Majesty, hide behind the big stone for the time being, so as not to be injured by the Taiyi Divine Thunder." ”
"Good!" Qin Shi Huang hid behind the boulder under the escort of several Xuanwu guards, and Chen Xu asked Meng Yun and the others to find a stone to hide, and then he lifted his shirt and took out a grenade from the back of his buttocks.
"There will be a loud noise and a splash of water later, so don't hide your body and ......"
After Chen Xu told him again, he pulled out the wooden stopper on the grenade, pulled the hemp rope vigorously, and with a pop, a thick smoke came out.
Chen Xu's expression was very serious, and after silently counting to ten in his heart, he raised his hand and threw the grenade into the pond, looking at the grenade that sank down, Chen Xu quickly turned around and hid behind a big stone where Meng Yun was hiding.
There was silence at the scene, and only the sound of rushing water could be heard.
Everyone was very nervous, and they didn't dare to come out of the atmosphere by clinging to the water plants and thorns on the stones.
Frying fish with Taiyi Divine Thunder is an unprecedented spectacle.
"Why hasn't it exploded yet?" After a few seconds, Meng Yun asked suspiciously.
"Don't worry!" Although Chen Xu was also a little apprehensive, he still firmly believed that the grenade should be able to explode, because he played with firecrackers when he was a child, and they could explode when thrown into the water.
If it hadn't exploded, it would have been a bit big today.
Behind the other stones, a few gentlemen seemed to be a little impatient, poking out most of their heads to look at the waterhole, and even the emperor kept looking at it with his head exposed.
"Your Majesty be careful......" Chen Xu couldn't help but remind loudly.
"Boom~~"
Chen Xu's voice did not fall, only to hear a muffled sound in the waterhole, accompanied by a huge splash tumbling and overflowing out of the waterhole, the entire mountain stream seemed to be gently shaking a few times, many stones around the waterhole were rolling down with a bang, and at the same time, there were fluttering steel bullets and sand and gravel with the sky splashing up in the air, like a water dragon rushing up to Zhangyu Gao and then falling down with a bang.
