"One nitrate, two sulfur and three charcoal", among which the charcoal is available in Zhao Zheng's house. Zhao Zheng knelt in front of the earthen stove and planed indiscriminately, and after a while, a black and gray mountain bun appeared in front of Zhao Zheng. And Zhao Zheng has changed from Asian Xiao Huang to African Xiao Hei.

Looking at the fruitful results of more than 20 catties in front of him, Zhao Zheng grinned "hehe" and smiled: "Ahem, cough, cough...... Oh my God, it's not a lot of work to dig out the ashes! That's enough soot! ”

Because the clothes on his body were wet, and now he was smeared with carbon ash, Zhao Zheng's appearance at this time was no different from screaming Hanako on the street.

Fearing that the soot would be affected by moisture, Zhao Zheng roughly ground the soot and threw it back into the earthen stove.

"Whew...... If you have this charcoal, you will be short of nitrate and sulfur. It seems that I have to go to Xia Wuqi's house as a guest tonight......" Zhao Zheng thought in his heart.

For Xia Wuqi, Zhao Zheng has a hundred hearts. As the saying goes, "if you want to work on your skills, you must first sharpen your tools", Xia Wuqi's deeds in the pursuit of immortality in history are also quite famous, and people like this will inevitably have a large number of ores and medicinal materials at home for research.

After Zhao Zheng hastily cleaned up the surroundings of the earthen stove, he also climbed onto the earthen kang and fell asleep, after all, he also did not sleep all night.

The rain was still falling tirelessly, and in the dilapidated grass house, Zhao Ji's mother and son snored one after another. Although the room was unusually cold, the mother and son slept unusually sweetly.

In Doctor Liu's house, Zhang Mancang and Xia Wuqi were still silent like two stuffy gourds. However, this situation lasted not long before it was broken by a soldier with a panicked face.

"Report ...... Report to the general, the big thing is not good! ”

The soldier staggered into the house, and before he could stand firmly, he knelt on the ground and said, "Report to the general, Zhu River...... The upper reaches of the Zhu River are not smooth, the water level is high, and the water is ...... The flood is coming! ”

"What!"

Zhang Mancang stood up with a sound of "Teng" when he heard this, and rushed into the rain curtain without saying a word, leaving Xia Wuqi alone in the house looking at the rain in a daze.

"It seems that this year, there will be another piece of Zeguo in Handan City......" Xia Wuqi muttered.

After Zhang Mancang came out of Old Doctor Liu's house, he did not go directly to the scene to investigate, but went directly to Wangcheng to ask King Zhao Xiaocheng to transfer troops to the tiger talisman. More than an hour later, a brigade of soldiers under Zhang Mancang's command rushed to the upper reaches of the Zhu River.

In the city of Handan, the people of Zhao State, who had been tested by floods for a long time, saw the army in the city rushing out of the city, so they also spontaneously went with the army. For a time, the army and people of the capital were united as a city, as if facing a great enemy.

At this time, the city has become a pot of porridge, and the streets and alleys are extremely lively. Maybe it was because she was really tired, Zhao Ji was not woken up by the noise outside the house, and still fell asleep by herself. Zhao Zheng watched directly from the wall, carefully observing everything outside the door through the crack in the door.

Just when the soldiers and civilians of the capital were working together to fight the flood, on the south gate tower, five young men covered in whiplashes did not know how to break free from the rope that tied them to the pillar. Quietly killing the detainees, the five of them changed into Zhao Jun's battle armor and then quietly walked out of the city gate building, and went straight to the direction of the royal city.

Before I knew it, it was getting late, and I couldn't see my fingers under the night. With a tingling yawn, Zhao Ji sat up with sleepy eyes.

"Zheng'er, what time is it?"

"Hmm...... It's almost time," Zhao Zhengxu squinted his eyes and glanced out.

"Yikes!"

When Zhao Ji heard that it was already Hai, she couldn't help but exclaim, and after hastily cleaning up in the dark, she was about to lead Zhao Zheng out.

"Mother......

Zhao Zheng saw that Zhao Ji wanted to take him away, his heart sank, and he quickly pouted his little ass and said with a bitter face: "Mother, Zheng'er doesn't want to go to Grandpa Liu's house, they are so fierce......"

After saying this, Zhao Zheng hurriedly squeezed out two tears and put on an extremely frightened expression.

Zhao Ji smiled when she heard this, gently stroked Zhao Zheng's head and comforted: "Don't be afraid, my son has a mother, no one will bully Zheng'er!" It's just that it was raining heavily in the middle of the night, so Zheng'er couldn't rest assured that she was at home alone. It just so happens that the room is there, so you two can be companions! ”

"Damn! Just Xia Wuqi's goods? If Lao Tzu soaked his daughter in front of him, wouldn't he break my legs? I'm not going! Zhao Zheng pursed his lips and said coquettishly: "Zheng'er doesn't want to play with that little girl!" Zheng'er just wants to stay at home and wait for her mother to come back, and Zheng'er promises not to go anywhere! ”

"You!"

Zhao Ji smiled bitterly and pinched Zhao Zheng's little face: "It's okay!" Anyway, when I get there, my mother can't take care of the government, and if she doesn't get it right, it will cause another incident. As Zheng'er just said, he sleeps at home, don't move around! If you want to get up at night, just follow the root of the wall! ”

"Uh-huh!"

Zhao Zheng saw that Zhao Ji was relieved, and immediately responded.

The reason why Zhao Ji was relieved to leave Zhao Zheng alone at home was naturally because she firmly believed that there was a master who was secretly protecting her son. And the reason why I panicked during the day was all thanks to the little medicine disciples.

By this time, the little medicine man had returned home. Seeing that Zhang Mancang was not there, he couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief. Aunt Chen stood aside, looking at her son who was wrapped in a mummy, and couldn't help but burst into tears.

Xia Wuqi was full of tiredness at this time, and after casually persuading Aunt Chen, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he went into the inner room and fell asleep by himself.

Just when Aunt Chen was whimpering and Xia Wuqi was falling asleep, Zhao Ji had already walked towards Old Doctor Liu's house in the rain again. It's just that this time Zhao Ji is wearing a cloak that doesn't fit well.

Although the night was getting deeper, there were torches everywhere in the city, and Zhao Ji knew that this was the people in the city preparing for the flood. At this time, she did not gloat as she did in previous years, and at this time she only hoped that her son at home could survive tonight. Not long after, Zhao Ji came to Dr. Liu's house again.

After Zhao Ji left, Zhao Zheng lay on the bed and recuperated for a while. After making sure that Zhao Ji was completely gone, Zhao Zheng took out the Qin short knife that Zhao Ji had put away from the earthen kang, and then walked out of the grass house.

"Shhh...... I'll go! This rain is a good barrier for killing people and goods! Zhao Zheng quipped as he walked.

Although Zhao Zheng had never been to Xia Wuqi's house, he had heard Zhao Ji talk about it a lot on weekdays, so it was not so difficult to find it. Half an hour later, a blue-brick grass house identical to Old Doctor Liu's house appeared in Zhao Zheng's eyes.

"This house should be the ......"

Zhao Zheng muttered, and then tiptoed along the root of the wall. At this time, the streets and alleys were empty, as if the whole street was not at home. Zhao Zheng couldn't manage those at this time, raised the windshield slightly, and then climbed in extremely numbly......
