"Zhongcheng, do you have confidence in him?" The one who spoke was the judge of the four towns of Anxi, Dr. Chaosan Feng Changqing. The "he" in his mouth was naturally Xiao Qu, who promised to suppress the spread of Buddhism in Tibet for the Subi Department and thought of a specific way.

Two days have passed. In the past two days, the entire four towns of Anxi have been fully mobilized. The feather is galloping, as fast as a spark. All officers, soldiers, and auxiliaries are on leave and are set to assemble at the battalion. The army began to prepare grain and horse feed. Inspecting the ordnance tents and other items, all kinds of baggage materials have begun to be slowly transported to Shule. As soon as the Qarluq mercenaries arrived, the army immediately set out for the river.

In addition, Gao Xianzhi also ordered all blacksmiths to report to the camp and rush to make horseshoes. At the same time, a large number of scouts were released to find out if there were any horse bandits in the vicinity of Qiuzi. Just last night, Duan Xiushi led the team to sweep away two horse bandit strongholds and capture dozens of prisoners. It is a pity that valuable intelligence is still not obtained.

People throughout Anxi were busy because of this emergency mobilization order. The only three who are not busy are probably Xiao Quai's illness and Gu Xiaojun and Li Ergou, who arranged for Xiao Quai's errands and janitors.

As the judge of the festival who was in charge of the warehouses, tuntian, jiadu, zhidu, and yingtian of the four towns, Feng Changqing was probably the busiest of everyone. It may be that he is not used to seeing Xiao Quai's leisure, or it may be that Gao Xianzhi trusts Xiao Qubing too much and has a faint tendency to surpass himself. So, Feng Changqing, who had been dealing with official documents for a long time, found an opportunity to talk to Gao Xianzhi about Xiao Qu's illness.

"It's natural, and the assistant can always surprise someone."

"But he doesn't seem to have done anything in the past two days!" Feng Changqing showed a suspicious look, "Either I go outside to ride horses and shoot arrows, or I tell stories to people during meals and breaks, and the rest of the time I am locked in the house, not knowing what I am doing." Where does this look like it's trying to figure it out? ”

What Xiao Quzhi does every day, Gao Xianzhi naturally knows. In fact, he was also very curious about what Xiao Qubing was thinking, and not long ago, he sent two people to Xiao Quai's house to see what he was doing. As a result, he was blocked back by Gu Xiaojun, who was guarding the door, saying that the secret of heaven would not be revealed. Having said that, it's not good to explore too much yourself. Fortunately, the three days are always coming, so don't you know when the time comes?

"I don't know. However, since the assistant minister said that there is a way, there must be no problem. As for what he had in mind, wouldn't he know when the time came? Gao Xianzhi said with certainty.

"I always think he's weird. Zhongcheng, haven't you ever doubted his origin? ”

Gao Xianzhi smiled: "His origin is indeed too bizarre, and his words and actions are always different. But there is no doubt about this, he is indeed a disciple of the Immortal Family, and there are more than fifty guards who have seen it with their own eyes. He paused, and looked at Feng Changqing:

"Don't say that again. Feng Er, you knew that you were suspicious of him, and you were suspicious of him at the beginning, but then he repeatedly solved the crisis...... Although sometimes he seems a little frivolous and speaks a little out of tune. But the crunch time never disappoints. If you don't believe me, we can make a bet. ”

"Bet on what?"

"Bet he will be able to come up with a good solution to the problem of Tibet."

"Well, then I bet he doesn't have a good idea. If a certain gamble is lost, a certain person no longer doubts him, and he is happy and convinced. ”

"Okay, if so-and-so loses, so-and-so won't believe that he is a disciple of the immortal family, and then send someone to carefully inquire about his origin." Gao Xianzhi said loudly, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, and had a strong premonition in his heart, how could he lose, Fuchen, I don't know what surprises you can bring me this time?

Xiao Quai, who was inexplicably trusted by Gao Xianzhi, was closing the door and hiding in the room at this time.

The table was full of things, including fire nitrate, sulfur, charcoal, yellow dan, yellow wax, cinnabar, tung oil, arsenic, etc. They were all taken by Gu Xiaojun and Li Ergou in the barracks and bought in the pharmacy, and the reason why they bought the few useless things in the back was of course out of the need for secrecy.

It's not that I don't believe in Anxi Jun and Gao Xianzhi, Xiao Quzhi has thought about it, ** Such a secret weapon is not suitable for disclosure at this time. It is necessary to achieve the most unexpected results at the most critical time. This is his own trump card, just like his own secret from the hereafter, and it is absolutely not suitable to be made public at this time.

The first three items were weighed in classic proportions with a medicine scale borrowed from the drugstore, and then placed in a wooden cup in turn, and carefully crushed into powder with a wooden pestle. Then it is mixed together, and it becomes a new pile of black powder, and the rough version of the ** is made.

From the perspective of Xiao Quai's later generations, the purity of these fires and sulfur is not enough, and there are many impurities, which will definitely affect the power of gunpowder. But this batch of ** is not for myself, the effect is almost fine, anyway, it is used to pretend to be a ghost, and it is not good if the power is too great.

However, after making this batch of Suvi people, there will definitely be some more to be used on the battlefield in the river and kept as hole cards. That batch, whether it is raw material purification or process processing, is more attentive than this time, time-consuming and labor-intensive. Thinking that all this work had to be done secretly by himself, Xiao Qu's head suddenly became big.

"What do you say Captain Xiao is doing in there? So mysterious? I also bought cinnabar and yellow pill, don't you want to make alchemy? But there was no Dan furnace in sight. ”

Li Ergou has been guarding the door for a long time, and he expressed strong dissatisfaction with this errand. He is also a school captain, although he is a relatively low Renyong captain, but when the army is making conscriptions, he was sent to guard the door. However, this was Gao Xianzhi's order, and he didn't dare to say anything, but secretly cursed in his heart: "You dead bull-nosed little Taoist, why did you take a fancy to me." ”

"How do I know, but I bet someone is going to be unlucky again." Gu Xiaojun rolled his eyes and said angrily. Obviously, he was also very unhappy with being forced to guard the door by Xiao Quai.

"What do you mean that someone is going to be unlucky again, obviously someone is already unlucky."

"Who?"

"Me and you. You said that the two of us were school captains, but he was brought in as a gatekeeper, isn't that bad enough? Don't tell me about it, or you'll be ashamed to die. ”

"Lost your men for me?" I don't know when the door has been opened, Xiao Quzhi stared at Li Ergou with an unkind face. It wasn't until he saw that Li Ergou's heart was furious, and Xiao Qu's illness then laughed and said: "Let's go, go to Gao Gaocheng, I'll take the two of you to see my Taoist magic weapon, which can be regarded as a reward for your loyalty to your duties." ”

The two of them looked at the three six or seven inches long and more than an inch thick strip-like objects that Xiao Quzhi was holding in his hand, and saw that they were still rolled up with mulberry paper. I muttered in my heart, it's very ordinary, what do you see? Is there anything to learn?

Half an hour later, the three of them found Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing, who were discussing military affairs, and the bet between the two about Xiao Qu's illness had only passed half an hour. Gao Xianzhi laughed: "Fuchen, can you get it?" ”

Xiao Quzhi nodded: "It took two days to refine the three Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Fa according to the method taught by the master. It's just that I haven't tested it yet, so I don't know if it works. ”

"Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Righteous Dharma...... What is it? Gao Xianzhi frowned, I haven't heard of it.

Xiao Quzhi smiled bitterly in his heart, when will the days of pretending to be a ghost and talking nonsense end. However, since I don't plan to disclose the secret recipe yet, this is probably the best way to say it. He raised the three long strips of explosives in his hand and said, "That's it, it's called the Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Rectification Method, which is a secret method that my master doesn't pass on. This secret method is the most masculine and rigid in the world, and can break all evil spirits. I heard my master say that this method came from Zhang Daoling Zhang Tianshi of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when Zhang Tianshi had just attained the Tao, there were 100,000 evil ghosts besieging Qingcheng Mountain, and Zhang Tianshi relied on this method to kill 100,000 ghosts cleanly. ”

Gu Xiaojun and Li Ergou were a little stunned, obediently such a powerful baby, then it would be nothing to run errands for him to watch the door. There was also a faint sense of participation and honor, and the two glanced at each other, a little proud. Turning his head and seeing Feng Changqing's disapproving expression on the other side, he shook his head in his heart, Doctor Feng doesn't believe Captain Xiao.

Gao Xianzhi took a deep breath, made a grunt and swallowed saliva, and his eyes became hot: "You can also make this secret method?" ”

Xiao Quzhi nodded, "The first time I made it, I don't know if it will be done, how much effect will it have from the master?" ”

Xiao Quzhi said lightly, and Gao Xianzhi's excitement on that side had been fully mobilized. Beside him, Feng Changqing's face changed, but he was quite embarrassed in his heart. What is the "Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Rectification Law", what is "the world is the most yang and strong, and can break all evil ghosts and ghosts", which is clearly deceitful and deceitful, so it is mysterious......

Then he said that "the first system, I don't know if it will be done or not, and it will have the effect of the master", which is obviously a good excuse and a way out in advance. With such clever words, how could Zhongcheng be willing to be deceived by him! I don't want to expose you for the time being, and when the time comes, when you can't get the real thing, a certain person will suddenly attack and debunk you on the spot. It's good that Zhongcheng can see that you are just a liar, god!

Thinking like this, Feng Changqing inevitably felt a little proud in his heart, with an expression of waiting to see a good show. By his side, Gao Xianzhi was also very proud. He glanced at Feng Changqing with deep meaning, the corners of his mouth pulled out a smug smile, and then turned his gaze to Xiao Quai, he couldn't wait: "Then what are you waiting for, go try it now." ”

Xiao Quzhi looked at the eye contact and strange expressions of the two with some confusion, and some of the second monks were confused, and after thinking for a while, they said that they didn't understand, so they simply didn't bother to think about it. He smiled and said, "I need a wooden stake, and a set of armor." ”
