Chapter 20: Pretending to be a ghost
On a wasteland five miles outside the city of Qiuzi, a wooden stake was driven two feet deep into the ground, and then a pair of old iron armor was found and put on the stake, which looked like a soldier in armor from a distance.
Xiao Quzhi let the four of them stand behind him, and he came more than thirty steps away from the wooden stake. Holding a "Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Rectification Method", he blew up the fire fold in his hand, lit the medicine twist lead, looked at the target, threw it hard, and then quickly ran back to the four of them.
Because it was the first time, Xiao Qubing didn't dare to take risks, so he threw it out as soon as he lit the fuse, and when Xiao Qubing ran away, the explosives didn't explode. Gao Xianzhi looked at Xiao Quzhi with a puzzled expression, as if asking, "Why is there nothing?" Gu Xiaojun and Li Ergou were a little stunned, their eyes widened, and they stretched their necks to stare at the wooden stake about forty steps away; Feng Changqing had an expression: "I knew it was like this", and looked at Gao Xianzhi slightly proudly.
Xiao Quzhi shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "The lead is too long, I'm a little afraid of death......"
Rumble! A loud explosion came like a thunderbolt, instantly engulfing the last two words of Xiao Quai's illness. The wooden stake broke in two, and the clothes rack on it and the armor were shocked and flew out more than two feet. A shallow pit more than a foot deep was blown out in front of the stake, and dust was flying, and a large amount of mud and sand fell from the sky.
Because they didn't have any mental preparation in advance, the ears of the four of them were suddenly buzzing, and for a while they seemed to be deaf, and they couldn't hear any other sounds. A heart was pounding and pounding, his face was pale, and he was dumbfounded. Li Ergou was even weaker in his legs, and sat on the ground with his buttocks, and he didn't recover for a long time.
When the four of them finally came to their senses, Xiao Quzhi had already come to the side of the shallow pit and checked the test results, and the effect was very ideal. The stakes with thick legs and stomachs were blown off one by one, and the armor was also blown out of several holes, revealing the white wooden core inside, and the leather lining the armor was scorched by the flames of the explosion, emitting an unpleasant scorching smell.
In my heart, I imagined what would be the effect if it wasn't for the wooden stake, but for the living, it would definitely be torn apart, and the dead could not die again. If you give this thing to the people of the Subi tribe, ask them to bring it back and secretly blow up the monks who were invited from India by the Tibetan Zanpu. Then it was said that these monks had angered Thor and were killed by Thor blast. I think the superstitious and ignorant Tubo people will be convinced, right?
Of course, it would have been better if these people from the Subi tribe were not satisfied with just killing a few monks, but had targeted the Tibetan Zanpu and the generals in the army. As long as they can act covertly and not be caught red-handed. With this secret weapon, which no one else knows, killing people can still pour dirty water on the dead, saying that they have angered the gods. In less than a year, the whole of Tibet will be turned upside down.
Thinking of this, Xiao Quzhi suddenly felt that he was insidious enough, and he actually came up with such a vicious way to plot against those high-ranking monks. Well, it seems like only villains do it? But I turned my head and thought that the people who died anyway were the Tubo and Tianzhu people, even if they didn't participate, they still had to fight, and about ten years later, Tubo Zampu would give a heavy hand to the Bon monks. At that time, many people died.
He was thinking about it here, and over there, Gao Xianzhi and the others had already come to the scene of the explosion, looking at the shallow pit on the ground that was more than a foot deep and six or seven feet in diameter. Gao Xianzhi seemed to see the scene when he saw Xiao Qu's illness for the first time, but the pit was much bigger and deeper. Looking at the destroyed wooden stakes and armor, they were shocked and speechless.
"Second brother," Gao Xianzhi swallowed hard, ate and asked, "This is the Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Fa you refined?" You say, what if it was refined by your master? ”
"Double the effect." Xiao Qu said casually.
At this time, Gao Xianzhi was completely convinced, the big pit was blown up by his master at the beginning. He froze: "Auxiliary minister, can you still do these five thunder heavenly heart rectifications?" ”
Xiao Quzhi thought for a while: "You can still make some, about more than a hundred catties." "Do thirty or ten taels for the Subians to do bad things, and there are still a hundred catties left to use on the battlefield in the river, as a hole card for surprising victory, it should be enough, right?
Gao Xianzhi laughed and said, "Before going to the river, can you complete all the refining?" ”
Xiao Quzhi nodded, "There's no problem, it's just that we still have to keep it secret, we have the secret of the Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Fa that can't be known to others." In addition, there are two raw materials that need to be purified, and I need some manpower. ”
Gao Xianzhi waved his hand and said happily: "It's all up to you." Strive to refine all the more than 100 catties of five thunder Tianxin Fa as soon as possible. ”
Feng Changqing came to the side of the two of them, looked at Gao Xianzhi, and then looked at Xiao Quai, for this Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Rectification, he is now twelve points convinced, but he still couldn't help but sneer: "But what does this have to do with the incident the day before yesterday?" After speaking, he glanced at Gu Xiaojun and Li Ergou on the side, meaning to tell them to avoid. Gao Xianzhi said: "It's okay, both of them are very reliable, not to mention that they already know such confidential matters, and there is no need to hide the affairs of the Subi Department from them." ”
When Xiao Quzhi said his detailed plan, what is Bon like, all things have spirits, mountains have mountain gods, lakes have lake gods, trees have tree gods, and of course there are thunder gods, and they are the highest level. How superstitious the Tibetan people are. How to use this Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Fa to harm people, to carry out assassination, and then push it to the Thunder God, how to attack the legitimacy and justice of the rule of Tubo Zampu spiritually and ideologically...... The four of them were stunned for a while, not because of how clever the plan was, or because it was too much......
After being stunned for about two or three seconds, Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing did not express their position for a while. But Gu Xiaojun couldn't help it first: "This, I think, your plan is too insidious and cunning!" It seems that you should be careful when dealing with you in the future, otherwise you will be sold and you will have to count the money. ”
The other three smiled and agreed. Gao Xianzhi was full of joy, but Feng Changqing was full of joy. Fortunately, he didn't show too much suspicion in front of him, otherwise, he would be regarded as an enemy and use this method to scare himself, thinking about it, I was really afraid. He secretly exchanged glances with Gao Xianzhi, saying that he was willing to gamble and lose, and no longer doubted Xiao Quzhi's illness.
There were still two explosives left, and when he went back, he let Gao Xianzhi test another one. This time, it was stuffed into the hollow of a dry poplar tree, and after a loud bang, the hugging poplar tree was blown in two, and sawdust flew away. The four of them circled around the half of the poplar tree twice, laughing so hard that they couldn't see their teeth. I couldn't wait for a group of Great Eclipse soldiers to appear in front of me immediately, and several of them threw the Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Fa over and blew him up on his back.
Back in the city, Gao Xianzhi immediately dispatched two teams of soldiers to seal off the courtyard where Xiao Qu's illness was, and no idle people were allowed to enter, nor were they allowed to probe their brains, otherwise they would be dealt with by military law. In addition, six craftsmen were allocated for Xiao to be sent to illness.
With the results of the test, Xiao Quzhi quickly grinded and stirred the remaining three materials, and within half a day, thirty explosives weighing about ten taels were ready. Xiao Quzhi was very satisfied, and began to go to the courtyard to find a way to purify saltpeter and sulfur.
After trying several methods, the results were not satisfactory, and the last person closed the door and secretly turned on the computer to check for a long time before he found a way to purify a chemistry test question. Fortunately, because when I was in Wudang Mountain, I often had to sleep on the cliff where I practiced, so I specially equipped my laptop with solar power generation equipment. If it weren't for this reason, Xiao Qubing would not have chosen to dedicate the hand-cranked camping lamp to Li Longji.
I really want to know, I don't know what the expression of the famous Tang Xuanzong Li Longji is when he sees the scientific and technological products after this thousand years? And that Yang Guifei, is she really beautiful?
Just when Anxi was fighting with strong horses, feathers galloping, and a busy scene of slaughter shrouded in war clouds, in the imperial capital thousands of miles away, in the city of Chang'an, a song and dance were leveled, prosperous and magnificent, and the palace was opened in nine days, and all countries were dressed and crowned.
However, at this time, the emperor did not accept the worship of the envoys of all countries, but read a secret letter, and the envoy Wang Chengen's Hongling urgent report. And next to him, it was not a courtier, but a Taoist priest with crane hair and a childish face and fairy wind bones.
"Mr. Zong Xuan, do you say that there are really innate immortal bones and immortal roots in this world, and people who can naturally become immortals without cultivating?"
The secret fold was written overnight by Wang Chengen when he was in Xizhou, mainly telling about the encounter and experience of He Cangfeng all the way to Xizhou. Horse bandits attacked at night, horse bandits intercepted, night raids on bandits' dens, interrogated prisoners, invented leggings and salt sugar water to cross the volcano, etc., are written in detail and clearly. However, all the information about horse bandits and leggings, salt sugar water was automatically filtered out by Tang Xuanzong.
Li Longji read the secret fold a few times, and the only thing he remembered and never forgot was a few: that night when Xiao was sick, he could hear the eagle chirping a few miles away; On horseback, you can hear the sound of horses' hooves miles away; He was pierced in the shoulder by a sword, and it took less than two days for him to heal without any wounds......
This description reminded Li Longji of Mr. Zong Xuan's theory that some people are born with immortal bodies and can naturally become immortals without studying. So he invited him to the palace as soon as possible.
Sitting opposite the emperor, the Taoist priest named Mr. Zong Xuan was Wu Yun, who was originally a Confucian student, and he was not a Taoist priest in Songshan. Later, he visited Daomao Mountain to learn the art of cultivating immortals, and made great achievements. He is ninety years old this year, but he looks a few years younger than Li Longji opposite, and it is no wonder that Tang Xuanzong admires him.
Wu Yun made a salute: "Your Majesty, there are naturally such people, such as the ancient sages, Yao Shun, Zhou Kong, Yilu, etc., all of whom have been promoted to immortal positions; Or the most loyal and filial, the most honest and honest, and those who have great merit and transitivity, such as being more than dry and not dying, Hui Feng drowns and comes back to life. ”
The Emperor laughed and said, "If a person can have very sensitive ears, he can hear the sound of an eagle six or seven miles away, and if someone pierces his body with a sword, he will be healed in less than two days, and he will not even see the wound." Do you think this is a fairy body? ”
Wu Yun was stunned for a moment: "Isn't it the disciple of the Immortal Family who presented the Eight Scenery Glass Lamps a few days ago, Xiao Fuchen who is sick?" ”
The Emperor smiled lightly, "Exactly! ”
Wu Yun pondered for a long time: "If this is really the case, this son is not a sage, but a person who is loyal, filial, chaste and honest." Congratulations, Your Majesty, with the help of a hundred spirits, a stranger has descended from the sky......"
Meanwhile, in the northeastern part of the empire, Fan Yang, a scribe named Gao Buwei, with a book of illustrations, was persuading a fat man surnamed An to rebel......
