Chapter 162 The Immortal Elder in the Taoist Temple
Chapter 162
"Boom!"
A sound came from the Dan room behind, and then a puff of black smoke came out of the window, and five well-wrapped veterans came out of the Dan room, and the faces of one or two were full of bad luck.
The craftsman who was doing the work in front glanced at the five old Taoists and laughed: "Immortal Cai, the Dan furnace has exploded again?" ”
The old man surnamed Cai looked gloomy and waved his hand: "If this elixir is so easy to refine, the whole world will be immortal, go and go, quickly help Poor Dao build a house, and Poor Dao will also give incense to Master Zu, and beg him to give the old man a little bit." ”
The craftsman smiled "hehe", then turned his head and began to ram the earth bricks: "Cai Xianchang, you can take a look." ”
This group of old people came here, and it has been half a month, at the beginning of what movement came in the Danfang, and scared this group of craftsmen, one or two thought that this group of Taoist masters had high mana, and drew talismans in it to invite thunder, and subdue demons and eliminate demons, but there were capable people in the craftsman, and one day when they were close to the Danfang, they smelled the smell of gunpowder, and they scared this craftsman half to death, and it was a crime to kill the head by making gunpowder privately.
Then there was a discussion of the old Taoists inside: "This recipe is not right, I always feel that there are shortcomings, is it too strong to add a little warm and harmonious harmony?" ”
"When the five elements are complete, what else do you want to do? Go and go, add three more coins of realgar. ”
"The Dan furnace hasn't arrived yet, and the jars used for temporary alchemy have been fried in four, and the realgar must not be bitten?"
"So what do you say? What we wrote in this ancient recipe is clearly 'one yang gives birth to ten thousand laws, and yin is full of eternal life'...... Who!? ”
Halfway through his words, he saw an old Taoist turn his head to look out, his old face was full of murderous aura, and he rushed out with a seven-star sword in his hand: "Who is watching the secret method of this sect?" ”
Then the craftsman was immediately scared to pee, and was chased by the old Taoist with a sword for half of the yard, and the traces of water flowed down the trouser legs, leaving a trace of eight yards on the ground, and I heard the craftsman shouting wildly: "The immortal chief spares his life, the immortal spares his life, the villain is just passing by there, and there is no eavesdropping meaning, the villain knows a few words, and he has never read half of the scriptures, how can he understand the immortal law?" ”
As a craftsman, he knows what is called "secret method", the ancient craftsmen are dying of old age, so they pass on their stunts, "teach apprentices to starve to death masters", this kind of thing, is not a legend, people's own apprentices do not pass on, if outsiders overhear, it must be to draw a sword and kill people.
Cai ...... Senior brother, this person was just passing by the window, he should not eavesdrop, the monks were merciful, and the senior brother still let him go. Another old Dao rushed up and hugged Lao Dao, "Here the county is Wenqu Xing, you and I have opened a killing ring here, I am afraid that I will be punished in the heavenly court." ”
"Old ...... What Senior Brother Cao said was that Senior Brother would stop for the time being, and it would not be too late to talk about it after the matter was clarified to the county. Another veteran rushed up and unloaded the seven-star sword in his hand.
Obviously, these "old Taoists" are also newcomers who have just been imprisoned for a long time, and they were originally "Lao Cai" and "Lao Cao" calling each other, which is still a bit unaccustomed to becoming a cold person, but well, the people who were craftsmen before, one or two are also mentally awake, especially this kind of master craftsman who is good at gunpowder manufacturing, so he faithfully fulfilled the things Yang Shangjing explained, and he was stunned for a while.
In order to get out the gunpowder, there is always an experiment, fortunately, the batch is small now, just to experiment with the granulation process, it doesn't matter if it is fried, it doesn't hurt anyone, but you nest in the Dan room every day, and you make a little noise at every turn, and it's really not a thing, in case someone is curious one day, come and climb the wall, don't you want to become a dead crab?
So at this time, there is going to be a mysterious matter, and this craftsman is also a disaster, but even if he runs slowly, this old man surnamed Cai ...... Well, the gunpowder craftsman won't do anything with him, at most a few scares will be over, but after this battle, no one is idle and has nothing to do to get over there and ask for some news, even if these old Taoists send the entire Danfang to the sky with themselves, the craftsmen can only shake their heads and sigh "It's really pitiful."
As for the last "Wenqu Star Descending to Earth", it is just a stroke of genius, and the intention of helping Yang Shangjing improve his worth on the side is not obvious, and the main purpose is not to let the folk spread that Emperor Ziwei has descended to Earth.
Lao Cai sat on the steps in a daze, fanning the wind with a pu fan in his hand, thinking about the gunpowder ratio that Yang Shangjing told them before, he had been a craftsman for so many years, and this thing took advantage of the dead of night to experiment a few times and blow up a few "Dan furnaces", and they knew that it was right, but the granularity that Yang Shangjing said, they were a little confused.
The craftsman who was building the wall turned his head and glanced at Lao Cai, and said loudly: "The immortal chief has said that the county zun is the Wenqu star descending to earth, and what comes down from this sky is that there is no heavenly memory, and he can always give you some guidance, maybe that sentence is on the point, and the county will be able to remember something." ”
As soon as Lao Cai heard this, his eyes lit up, he laughed, took out a small string of twenty copper plates from his sleeve, and threw them to the craftsman: "In the end, Lao Dao still wants you to mention something, take it well, if it is really hot...... Fire Alchemy Pill, Lao Dao, I invite you to eat good meat for a month! ”
Whether it was a monk or a Taoist priest in ancient times, one or two were either poor or a big landlord who dominated one side, so this Lao Cai was generous, and the craftsman was not much surprised, as for eating meat...... Well, the Taoist priests of Zhengyi have said, Daoist, I even gave birth to a baby, and I still care about eating some meat? Cows, dogs, snakes, turtles, cranes, mullets, geese and the like dare not eat because of the rules and regulations, and pork and mutton are still uneaten?
So the craftsman was not surprised, he took the copper coin with a grin, and arched his hand at Lao Cai: "The little one will thank the fairy chief first!" ”
Lao Cai waved his hand, went back to the house to change into a middle coat, straightened the crown on his head, and arched his hand to several other old Taoists: "Foolish brother, I will go to the county government to see if Yang Xianzun, who is descended from Wenqu Xing, can give me some reminders, and you must guard the temple well, and don't let the secret recipe be stolen by outsiders." ”
The remaining "old Dao" and their children and grandchildren looked at each other, and arched their hands with a smile: "Senior brother, just go, I am waiting here, so it is naturally safe." ”
