A simple but dignified carriage drove sparkling on the road leading to the outside of the city.

In front of and behind the carriage, more than 20 knights held their horses and spears in their hands. And on either side of the carriage, there were also two knights. Among them, the knight on the left side of the carriage looked at the carriage for a while, and then looked at the knight in front of him with serious eyes, and more time was enjoying the scenery outside Chang'an City in July.

White sunlight shone through the gaps in the tall poplars on both sides of the road, and shone on the carriage and every knight.

"Oh, eldest sister, this is the third joke, if you talk about it again, it will be gone, how can I tell it to you in the future!" Zhang Yunwen looked at the three women in the carriage through the open carriage curtain with some helplessness.

The eldest grandson seemed to be smiling, and his eyes were full of cunning wisdom. Li Yu, a nine-year-old girl, stared at Zhang Yunwen with a pair of dark eyes, with a sallow face, which made people, well, uncomfortable. Rui'er also sat beside Li Yu out of the ordinary, and the aftertaste of the joke just now was still rippling on her face.

"Okay, Yunwen will talk about it for today, another day, when Yunwen has time, come to the palace to talk about a few more, and I will teach people to record these jokes. Well, I really don't know that Yunwen has so many jokes! The eldest grandson glanced at Zhang Yunwen and looked at the scenery outside, "It's almost there anyway!" ”

Zhang Yunwen's eyes suddenly darkened, and he thought that the eldest grandson was considerate of him, but it turned out that he was about to arrive at Baiyun Temple.

Baiyun Temple is not far from Chang'an, and all the way through, that road is almost the best level today.

Zhang Yunwen maliciously speculated in his heart, if this Baiyun Temple is too far away from Chang'an or the road is too bad, I'm afraid not many people will go to this Taoist temple, then Yuan Tiangang's income will be much less.

The green tree covers the Zhu Palace, and the white water flows to the Taoist view. This is almost a portrayal of the White Cloud Temple. I saw the lush trees in the summer covering the top of the eaves pavilion, and a gurgling stream flowing out of the mountains not far away, wandering in front of the Baiyun Temple for a while, and then hurried south.

The eldest grandson and Li Yu got out of the carriage, and the lotus step moved lightly and walked towards the temple. And those knights were guarding the gate of the Taoist temple, leaving only four people to put down their horses and accompany them to the temple.

Before he took two steps, a middle-aged man with a high crown and a broad belt greeted him: "The distinguished guests are full of people, and the trail is really scary!" As he spoke, he bowed to the eldest grandson.

"Daoist Yuan doesn't have to be polite!" The eldest grandson said.

Zhang Yunwen looked at this high-crowned Taoist priest in surprise, he is Yuan Tiangang? I saw that this person had bright eyebrows and starry eyes, a high nose and thin lips, and a few strands of beard flowing under his chin, and his demeanor was really shining.

"I came here today to ask the Taoist chief to pray for the little girl!" Yuan Tiangang led the way in front, and several people soon came to the Baiyun Temple Hall. I saw that in the main hall, the statue of Sanqing ** was sitting, and a trace of Taoist unique solemn atmosphere spread in the hall.

"The princess is kind-hearted, and Xiaodao admires! This blessing is undertaken by Xiaodao. Princess, please rest in peace! As he spoke, he whisked the dust, "Qingfeng Mingyue, the two of you have sent magic weapons, and you want to pray for the county lord for the teacher!" ”

Two bright-eyed male and female Taoist children presented a Dharma weapon, Yuan Tiangang picked up the magic weapon, knelt in front of the Sanqing statue, and began to chant the Taoist treasure.

Zhang Yunwen yawned secretly, and said to the three palace guards who were watching their noses and noses: "You guys are staring here, I'll take a look around!" ”

After speaking, he ran out of the main hall with a smoke.

said that it was to look around, Zhang Yunwen actually didn't want to listen to Yuan Tiangang's almost lullaby. Besides, the souls who are deeply taught by Chairman Mao's thoughts have an inexplicable antipathy to these feudal superstitious thoughts. Although Yuan Tiangang is a famous Taoist priest in history.

The scenery inside the Baiyun Temple is also quite good, several large trees that require two or three people to close around block the sun, and under the trees, the breeze is gusting and cool.

It's a great place to escape the heat. Zhang Yunwen thought in his heart.

Walking aimlessly around the Taoist temple, Zhang Yunwen saw two small characters written on the door of a room: Danfang.

Curious, he pushed the door open.

I saw an old Taoist priest in sloppy clothes sitting in front of a one-person high Ding furnace, and under the Ding furnace, a red stove was burning a few red charcoals.

Feeling that someone had come in, the sloppy Taoist priest turned his head and saw that it was a living person, so he couldn't help but be a little annoyed and said, "What's the matter with you, you came in by the way without the permission of the master!" It's not to disturb the poor Dao alchemy, can you afford this consequence? ”

Zhang Yunwen pursed his lips secretly, although he was disdainful in his heart, but it was indeed wrong to enter the door without the permission of the master, and when he shook it, he apologized and said: "I am presumptuous, and I hope that the Taoist will forgive me!" ”

The sloppy Taoist priest nodded, looked at the Ding furnace again, and ignored Zhang Yunwen at all.

Zhang Yunwen looked around and saw hundreds of small cabinets neatly arranged on one wall, and the outside was written with a brush: cinnabar, sulfur, milk vetch, saltpeter......

Hehe, it's all minerals! I'm afraid this alchemy is to throw these minerals in the Ding furnace and calcine!

Suddenly, Zhang Yunwen thought of something, sulfur, saltpeter, aren't these raw materials for making gunpowder, plus a charcoal, the formula of this gunpowder is complete.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yunwen seemed to feel the whistling sound of the cannonball, the cold texture of the grenade, and the smell of gunsmoke. Alas, what a nostalgic feeling!

At that moment, he said to the sloppy Dao Chang: "Dao Chief, I don't know how you sold this sulfur saltpeter?" ”

The chief raised his eyelids: "If you want some, just take it!" ”

Zhang Yunwen was suddenly happy, turned around and said that the cabinet containing sulfur saltpeter, and took out all the bags of sulfur saltpeter inside.

Holding a large bag of things, he looked at the Taoist who was squinting his eyes, and quietly went out.

Just go get it! Dao Chief, you said it yourself. Zhang Yunwen secretly defended his actions.

Back in the main hall, Yuan Tiangang had already recited the outer volume of Daozang. Standing up, he said to the eldest grandson: "Niangniang, don't worry, although the county lord's condition is serious, there are signs of improvement!" ”

The eldest grandson immediately thanked him.

Looking at Zhang Yunwen, who returned to the main hall with a large bag and a small bag, Yuan Tiangang let out a surprised "huh" and walked to Zhang Yunwen's side: "This donor's face is very unreasonable!" ”

Zhang Yunwen suddenly rolled his eyes: "What is against common sense, am I not the same nose and two eyes?" ”

Yuan Tiangang was not annoyed, stared at Zhang Yunwen for a while, and sighed: "Sure enough, the way of heaven is impermanent!" Poor Dao thinks that he can get a glimpse of half of the heavenly opportunity, and when he sees the donor today, he knows that the heavenly way is boundless, and we are waiting to peek at it, how shallow and ugly! After speaking, he sighed again, turned his head to look at the statue of Sanqing, and did not speak.

Zhang Yunwen suddenly felt that everyone in the hall looked at him as if they were looking at a monster.

This, this Yuan Tiangang is too inexplicable!

"Well, Yunwen, what are you holding here?" The eldest grandson looked at Zhang Yunwen holding the big bag like a baby, and couldn't help asking.

"Well, some sulfur saltpeter! I just asked a Taoist leader for it! He said, 'If you want something, take it.' Well, so I took it! ”

Everyone looked at the big bag with at least ten catties in Zhang Yunwen's arms, and couldn't help but be speechless.

In the Baiyun Temple behind him, a sloppy Taoist looked at the empty cabinet: "Hey, why not, is it possible that sulfur saltpeter has been used a lot recently?" ”
