Chapter Seventy-Three: Standard Gunpowder (Part II)
Yang Shen pushed open the door, and then smiled at the groom who had quietly come to him at some point: "Uncle Fang, it's troublesome." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
The middle-aged man smiled honestly and said, "It is natural for subordinates to host affairs for the family." He walked in.
The rumbling sound that came from inside just now made Yang Shen feel a little drumming in his heart, what was going on there was not a joke, if he walked in rashly, he might lose his life because of an accident if he was not careful.
The middle-aged man's name is Fang Huaxiang, he is the son of the Yang family, and he is a grandmaster-level master trained by the Yang family.
With his martial arts cultivation, even if he encounters any changes inside, it is more than enough to protect himself and escape.
Not long after, Fang Huaxiang walked out, accompanied by three elderly Taoist priests.
These three people have long beards and fluttering, and they are old, if they look like fairies on weekdays, they must have a sense of fairy wind and bones, but at this time, the clothes of these three people are full of dust, and their faces are also white and black, which is really a big loss of image.
Seeing these three people, Yang Shen took the initiative to ask, "Are the three Dao Masters okay here?"
When the three of them saw Yang Shen, the Rongguo Gong of the dynasty, the head of the Yang family took the initiative to greet them, they were all a little frightened, and they all bent down to salute, and the Taoist priest in the center said respectfully: "It's a little bit of a small road, a few people in the small road are good here, and there is a concern of Lord Lao Guogong." ”
Yang Shen nodded slightly and said, "The three Daoists are fine, let's go in and talk." ”
Saying that, he said to Steward Yang: "You go and do your own business, you don't have to follow." ”
Steward Yang knew that the head of the family and the three Taoist priests must have important matters to discuss in detail, and he didn't want to know about it, so he was slightly disappointed in his heart. However, of course, he did not dare to disobey Yang Shen's order, and immediately bowed down and said, "My subordinates obey the order." Then he turned and departed.
Yang Shen said to the dozen or so guards who followed him from Yang's house: "You and others are all guarding outside, and no one is allowed to come in." ”
The guards responded in unison: "The order of the subordinate family master." ”
Yang Shen greeted several Taoist priests slightly: "Go in." ”
plus Fang Huaxiang, the five of them walked into the hospital together.
While walking on the path, Yang Shen asked, "A few Taoist leaders, how is the gunpowder research?" ”
It was still the old Taoist priest in the middle who replied to Yang Shen: "Xiao Dao and the others have been tested in many ways, and they have made finished products according to the composition ratio you said, and the power is indeed many times greater than before. ”
Yang Shen nodded slightly: "That's fine." ”
Yang Shen came this time for the sake of gunpowder, this thing is definitely a big killer in this era of cold weapons, and it will be of great help to Yang Shen to seize the world in the future.
After coming to this era, although Yang Shen has always wanted to drum up the gunpowder, but since he sobered up, in order not to reveal flaws, he has been familiar with the internal affairs of the Yang family, and has been doing his duty as a family head, and has been entangled in everything, and has never had time to study gunpowder.
It wasn't until three days ago that after getting the "Heavenly Evil Sutra", the stone that Yang Shen had been sinking in his heart finally fell to the ground, and this person relaxed a lot before he began to work on this matter.
In this era, there is already a very primitive ***, but the ratio of the three basic raw materials of nitrate, charcoal and sulfur is incorrect, and it can only be used as firecrackers, which can scare children, and it is impossible to use it in the military.
Yang Shen was just a high school student in his previous life, and he couldn't remember too many inventions and creations in modern society, but modern *** and proportion were one of the few things he remembered clearly.
Two days ago, Yang Shen found these three Taoist priests who like alchemy on weekdays, these people are no strangers to gunpowder, Yang Shen told them the correct formula of ***, and asked them to start developing the finished product with the best explosion effect.
Yang Shen said to the three old Taoist priests: "There are a few Taoist leaders who take me to observe the specific effects of the explosion. ”
The three old Taoist priests couldn't help but hesitate a little, looked at each other for a while, and the old Taoist priest in the middle spoke: "The body of the prince is really not suitable for risking his life. ”
Yang Shen shook his head with a smile and said, "This matter is very important, if you don't go to see it in person, it is really difficult for my father to rest assured." ”
"Okay." The old Taoist priest agreed with a wry smile: "It's just that the head of the family must listen to Xiaodao's arrangement, otherwise Xiaodao will really be difficult to obey." ”
Yang Shen smiled and said, "It's okay, my father won't act without permission." ”
The three old Taoist priests felt a little relieved. If Yang Shen refused to obey their arrangement and had an accident, their whole family would not be let go by the Yang family.
Under their leadership, Yang Shen came to a bamboo forest.
This bamboo forest covers an area of about 100 square meters, it is spring, if it is usual, this bamboo forest will inevitably show a green scene, but at this time, many of the bamboos in this bamboo forest have been broken from it, some of the bamboo is even rootless, the whole is planted upside down on the ground, some of the bamboo has traces of being burned, miserable.
There are still water stains in many parts of the bamboo forest, and the soil in the forest is also wet, so it is clear that this place has just undergone a firefighting operation.
Next to the bamboo forest, there are three large water tanks in the shape of finished characters, which are supposed to be used to extinguish fires.
The three old Taoist priests walked to a place covered by iron plates next to them, and together they lifted the iron plates, and Yang Shen saw that there was a pit of about one cubic meter below, and several iron boxes were stored in the air, and each iron box was wrapped with a dense fuse.
One of the old Taoist priests took one out of it and put it on the ground aside, and the three of them carefully covered the iron plate.
The two old Taoist priests walked to the forest, and the other walked up to Yang Shen and said, "Please Grandpa Guo step back with the trail." ”
Yang Shen nodded, he wouldn't be reluctant to stay here, it was a joke with his own life.
The old Taoist priest withdrew about fifty meters with Yang Shen and Fang Huaxiang before he said, "Grandpa Guo, it's okay." ”
Yang Shen stopped and looked at the actions of the two old Taoist priests in the forest with the other two.
I saw them walk to a place where the ground was flat, first put the iron box in their hands on the ground, and then untie the fuse wrapped around the iron box, and slowly pull it out of the bamboo forest.
The fuse is very long, about twenty meters long.
One person took out the fire fold and put it on the fuse, and after a while, the two of them quickly ran towards Yang Shen's side, looking at their somewhat hideous appearances, obviously they were about to use their strength to eat.
Before they could run to Yang Shen's side, they heard a shocking bang. Even standing fifty meters away, Yang Shen felt pain in his eardrums, and his body was a little unsteady on his feet.
