After eating the pills and potions sent by his wife, and thinking of the "loud noise" in the military general's mansion mentioned by Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang was still pondering, connecting this series of things.

Who would have thought, but at this time...

"Boom... Boom—"

A deafening loud bang tore through the silence of the air and burst open.

It was as if everything in heaven and earth was violently shaken by this sound wave.

Immediately after, a huge shock wave quickly spread in the air, like an invisible force, enveloping everything around it in an instant.

Even General Zuo's Mansion is no exception.

No, to be precise, this loud sound that could tear everything was near General Zuo's Mansion, and the huge wave of qi even spread to this side, through the door and window, it seemed to give Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang a wave of air impact under the "residual energy".

And then...

It was as if time had been frozen, and all those who heard the loud noise and felt the impact fell to the ground in fear, while others froze in place.

Although the impact is not very large, the shock that appeared out of thin air... impacts everyone's eardrums, and even makes all subconscious prestige seeking.

It seems to be... It is the residence of the military general Zhuge Liang!

Hearing this explosion, Zhang Fei and Ma Chao, who were reporting on their work in Shuzhong, couldn't help but "chuckle" in their hearts, because the direction was roughly in General Zuo's Mansion, and they subconsciously thought that Liu Bei had an accident.

Liu Bei in General Zuo's Mansion also hurriedly asked Zhao Yun outside the door, "Zilong, can you find out... What's going on? ”

Zhao Yun raised a silver spear horizontally, even in the chaos... He also had to protect the sense of sight at the door behind him, and his words came out quickly, "The voice seems to be coming from the side of Zhuge Military Division's mansion... It seems to be the same as the occasional loud noise in recent times, but this time... The sound is louder, so loud that it is wrapped in majestic power... I'm worried..."

- Zhuge Army's mansion?

Zhao Yun's sentence has not yet been finished...

Zhuge Liang was shocked by something, and he subconsciously blurted out with great concern, "Yueying... Still in the mansion! ”

Then he quickly got up and said to Liu Bei: "Lord, I..."

It seems that from the first word that Zhuge Liang chanted, Liu Bei guessed his next words, "I'll go with Kong Ming... Kong Ming don't panic, Jiren has his own natural appearance! ”

Immediately, Zhao Yun and a group of guards led the way, facing the smoke that was dissipating, and quickly advanced towards the general's mansion.

When they arrived, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Zhuge Jin, and Zhuge Ke had already arrived, and it had been ascertained that the scope of the explosion was not large, but it was by no means small, it was a whole courtyard, and four houses were on fire due to the sudden explosion. General Zhaowen Yi has already brought people to fight the fire.

"Yueying..."

Looking at the chaotic military division and general's mansion, Zhuge Liang's brows tightened, except for the fact that he couldn't help but call out his wife's name, he could only clench his fists, his eyes full of worry.

In a few moments, several injured people were carried out, but fortunately, no one's life was in danger, but it was a burn, and there were already doctors on standby here for quick treatment.

Huang Yueying was the last to be carried out...

Her thin veil seemed to be blown off by the waves of air because of the great fluctuations.

There was dust and dirt on her cheeks and clothes, especially on her face... It was the heavy layer of tire spots, which were also covered by the dark dust, and did not show the "ugly" side.

Seeing his wife Huang Yueying, Zhuge Liang hurriedly stepped forward...

A soldier hurriedly replied, "Zhuge military division, Mrs. Huang is fine... It was only affected by the air waves, and there was no injury to the whole body..."

Call...

These words made Zhuge Liang's hanging heart fall to the ground safely.

At this time, Huang Yueying opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was Zhuge Liang...

She seemed to quickly regain some consciousness, and subconsciously asked Zhuge Liang: "Kong Ming?" That medicine... Did you take it on time? ”

This...

Zhuge Liang suddenly didn't know what to say.

Yes, she looks like this, she just woke up, but she is still full of concern about the medicine, it can be seen... Mrs. didn't say anything, but her eyes were full of desire to have a child of her own!

"I've served... I've served..."

Zhuge Liang knew that his wife was strong, so he hurriedly held her hand... Feel the coldness of her hands.

The devil knows... What has she just been through?

It seems that the heat in her husband's hands made Huang Yueying regain more consciousness.

She asked Zhuge Liang in confusion: "What's wrong with me?" What about my veil? How can I meet people in such an ugly face? ”

Zhuge Liang said softly: "Madame was shocked by the black wave of air after that huge explosion, and then passed out... With such a huge explosion, the entire four houses were blown up, and the lady was safe and sound, which is already God's blessing and a blessing in misfortune! ”

It seems that because of the mention of "explosion", the mention of "gas waves", and the mention of "four houses blown up", Huang Yueying suddenly woke up, she actually grabbed Zhuge Liang's hand hard, Zhuge Liang could feel... The power in Madame's hands is growing and it is going crazy.

"Kong Ming, that explosion just now, really... Did you really blow up four houses? Seriously? ”

With Huang Yueying's words, Zhuge Liang was a little foggy, and he could only subconsciously answer: "Yes... The explosion was so powerful that it really blew up four houses, and even General Zuo's Mansion, which was adjacent to this mansion, was also affected, and there was a lot of anger..."

Zhuge Liang replied with palpitations...

can be seen with the naked eye, Huang Yueying is like ecstasy, "It's successful, I've succeeded..."

Yes... It worked?

Zhuge Liang was even more confused.

Huang Yueying jumped directly from the stretcher, she jumped three feet high, she danced with her hands, "I succeeded, I succeeded, the method that Yunqi gave me to make gunpowder... It worked..."

"The ratio of saltpeter, sulphur and charcoal, the way in which they are mixed and interact with each other... I found it, I found it! ”

The reason why Huang Yueying is so excited...

It's because, under the semi-finished product manufacturing map about "gunpowder" that Guan Lin handed over to her, she finally completed the best ratio of materials...

Completed the manufacture of this powerful black powder.

And this method of manufacturing black powder, at the expense of Huang Yueying's "military general" mansion, kept trying... After blowing up one, two, three, four, five, and six times, and each time it became more dangerous, she finally succeeded.

And the appearance of black powder ... marked many "firearms", including "gunpowder whip arrows" ...

In Shuhan, it has changed from absolute impossibility to infinite possibilities -

It is necessary to know that among the four major inventions of China... The item of gunpowder was originally derived from the phenomenon of "exploding ding" in the process of alchemy of Taoist priests...

Having said that, Huang Yueying... She is proficient in hundreds of crafts and kitkats, and is proficient in astronomy and geography, and even alchemy, pottery, and porcelain making are quite accomplished under the guidance of her master Yu Gongzhu...

Therefore, in terms of chemistry, she is a hundred times stronger than a simple alchemy magic stick!

…

…

Luoyang City, in the middle of a water pavilion.

This is the mansion that Cao Cao rewarded to Ma Jun, the commander of the horses...

Of course, because Ma Jun was focused on the flying ball, this was the first time he had returned here.

Cao Ying accompanied him, or to be precise, comforted him and let him know... In this troubled world, many things are involuntary, and in this Cao Wei, the kindness of women is taboo!

Then again...

There is a gluttonous feast on the table, and the room is full of countless precious treasures, and Ma Jun, who was originally sullen, is even more melancholy at the moment.

The news of the fire in Xuchang City has come, which makes him, who is not deeply involved in the world, suddenly feel a great sense of guilt.

You know, Ma Jun has developed over the years... Whether it is a new type of silk loom, or a guide car, a keel waterwheel, and a hundred operas, the purpose is to benefit the people, and it is to use water conservancy and machinery to double the efficiency of agricultural production...

He was born in poverty, and he has a special affection for the common people and the peasants... And because of this, in any case, he could not imagine ... The flying ball took off into the air, and the culprit who caused the sea of purgatory fire in Xuchang City was himself!

This also caused him to not eat for several days, as if he was punishing himself.

"Whatever? Rice always has to be eaten..."Cao Ying comforted Ma Jun, "A woman's kindness is a taboo for soldiers... Besides, how can there be a war that doesn't kill, Weng Weng kills... It is for unification, and unification is for the peace of the world, the cessation of war... If according to your imagination, the soldiers and horses of Jingzhou live in the same city with the people all the time, then... This flying ball? Will it be hidden forever? Never start? ”

Cao Ying didn't want to explain anything to Weng Weng Cao Cao, she just wanted to cheer up this husband, this horse captain who was proficient in all kinds of crafts and ingenuity.

She knew that Guan Lin's inventions were endless... Weng Weng dominates the world, and her husband is indispensable!

"Whew... Whew..."

Ma Jun didn't reply, he was not tall, this time he seemed to be unusually persistent, as if he didn't have the slightest intention of compromising on the issue of "slaughtering people".

"Ugh..."

Cao Ying sighed helplessly, this was the countless times she had persuaded her in the past three days, but the result...

Alas...

As a woman, what else can she do but sigh?

That's when ...

"Bang" The door was pushed open, it was Cao Cao, he walked into this water pavilion with dragon and tiger steps, and saw his granddaughter Cao Ying who was frowning.

See again... Ma Jun, who had not eaten for a few days, understood something immediately.

"What? Is the lonely horse lieutenant still angry with him? ”

Cao Cao, who has always been vigorous and resolute, rarely has a gentle tone between the words of Tsushima... There is even a little smile, like a warm spring breeze.

"Weng Weng..."Cao Ying immediately opened his mouth.

Ma Jun also arched his hand towards Cao Cao: "The minister doesn't dare..."

"Lonely let the captain go home to rest for a few days, I never thought that I had lost weight, I thought that the baby was not well taken care of, and he should be punished... The punishment..."Cao Cao's words chanted again, and his voice was as warm as a spring breeze as always.

"It doesn't matter about the princess..."Ma Jun replied truthfully, "Yes... The second half of the sentence was, forced by Cao Cao's deterrence, he couldn't open his mouth for a while.

"Don't say it, the lonely horse captain says." Cao Cao's face became a little serious, "The Captain of the Horse blames Gu, and the Strange Commander let the flying ball imitated by the Captain of the Horse burn the Xuchang City, causing the lives to be ruined, and people and animals are not left... Captain Horse, what Gu said is not right or not..."

This...

Suddenly, such a sensitive and sharp topic reached Ma Jun's ears, leaving him momentarily confused and not knowing how to deal with it.

Cao Ying hurriedly opened his mouth for Ma Jun, "Weng Weng... Deheng him..."

Without waiting for Cao Ying to explain, he opened his mouth, "Hahahahaha..." Cao Cao suddenly laughed, "Baby, you don't need to explain for him, you don't blame him, you come here... It's to tell him..."

Yes...

Cao Cao's words made Ma Jun stunned again, and he raised his head to look directly at Cao Cao's warm and sharp gaze.

Cao Cao's words continued, "The captain of the horse is wrong, Gu never allowed the Flying Ball Legion to go to Xuchang City to burn the people, and Gu specially let them slow down the attack a little, just to let the people evacuate in advance, Lonely... In the early years, it was just a prince, forced by the current situation, killed many people, and the killing was too prosperous, but now Lone has established the Great Wei, and Lone wants to let the Great Wei pass on for thousands of generations, and he must accumulate some virtue for the Great Wei..."

Speaking of this, Cao Cao paused for a moment and continued to deceive Ma Jun in a "gentle" way. "But Lone is not a saint, Lone still let the Flying Ball Legion release this fire after the people of Xuchang City fled, Lone is not to kill many people, Lone is to let the Guan family father and son, let Jingzhou know that they have flying balls, Lone also has, what they can do, Lone can also do... So and so and so and so and so ... When they carry out air raids again, they will be afraid, so... Lone's purpose was accomplished. ”

Yes...

Cao Cao's words came out eloquently, making Ma Jun's heart "chuckle".

"The King... Didn't burn the people? ”

"How can Lone burn the people?" Cao Cao said wantonly: "Gu is old, the future Great Wei is your young man, the killing caused by Gu will need to be resolved by you in the future, Deheng... Hello boys, babies are good children, but you must remember that while protecting the people, we must also protect our own people, let them live and work in peace and contentment, and keep them away from the poison of war, and I promise you... This flying ball, including any weapons you have imitated, is only for the sake of unification, and will never slaughter the people, even the most humble Li Shu..."

Undoubtedly, for the young Ma Jun, he is too easy to be manipulated, and Cao Cao's "attacking heart" seems to be better.

"The king..."Ma Jun was already crying, he knelt down with a "click", "It's me... It's me who lives the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain... I'm wrong about the king..."

"Is it wrong? Ha ha... Don't be afraid, don't be afraid..."Cao Cao made a serious appearance while pulling up Ma Jun, "Twenty years ago, someone mislooked at Lone, and twenty years later, there will be people who mistakenly look at Lonely, but Lone is still Lonely, Deheng... Get up, eat something, and bless the thousands of people of Great Wei, who can't leave you... The game with Guan Lin on the ordnance, Lone can't leave you, end the strife in the world, Lone... I can't leave you! ”

This...

Cao Cao's words made Ma Jun's tears already like a spring...

"The King... The King..."

"You call the Lonely King?"

"No, it's Avong... A-"

"Hahaha..."

Cao Cao suddenly laughed, and he hurriedly instructed Cao Ying, "Baby, quickly heat up the food on the table, no... Don't get hot, you ask Xu Chu to bring the cook from the Lonely Palace and stay here... Cook delicious meals for the lonely grandson-in-law..."

Got it...

Cao Cao used his actions to completely control Ma Jun-

Speaking of which, Cao Cao has been in this world for decades, he understands it too well, he sees it through...

Many times, it doesn't matter what the truth is!

The important thing is that as long as people are convinced, that... That's the truth!

Then again... Appeasing Ma Jun is just a small episode.

Cao Cao quickly walked out of the water pavilion, and he finally explained to Cao Ying, and slowly got into the carriage.

Cheng Yu was guarding the door just now, and he could hear the conversation between Cao Cao and Ma Jun clearly...

Cao Cao saw Cheng Yu's stunned expression, so he beckoned Cheng Yu to get into the carriage and asked, "Zhongde?" Is there something you don't understand? ”

"The king..."Cheng Yu said truthfully: "The king appeased Ma Jun with lies, this... The minister can see that but... Why didn't the king mention the production of white phosphorus? Didn't the king want that Ma Jun to imitate the white phosphorus in Jingzhou? If there is white phosphorus... The Flying Ball Legion can destroy and burn a city overnight... This white phosphorus has a lot to do with it! ”

"Hahahaha..."

Facing Cheng Yu's words, Cao Cao smiled, it was a big laugh, a determined smile.

When the laughter fell, he said lightly to Cheng Yu: "Gu originally wanted Ma Jun to imitate white phosphorus, but Gu Fang suddenly figured out that Ma Jun is strong in 100 crafts, but the imitation of white phosphorus is not an ordinary craft, most of them are not Ma Jun's strengths..."

"Then the king is going to..."Cheng Yu then asked.

"Hahaha..."Who ever thought, Cao Cao laughed again, and said while laughing: "What does Lone mean is that Lone thought of a person who is more proficient in this way... If he is allowed to do it, this imitation of white phosphorus is foolproof! ”

This...

Cheng Yu was stunned, he wanted to open his mouth to ask this candidate, but when the words came to his mouth, he still swallowed them in his stomach.

But one thing, he was sure... That's what King Cao Cao said about this... No, to be precise, it's about this person -

…

…

Build Ye City, in the palace.

All morning, Guan Lin had been writing, writing a... Again, countless papers were piled up on the case, and many even fell to the ground.

Liao Hua originally came to resign, but after the Jiangdong matter was resolved, he was going back to Anlu City in Jiangxia to continue to garrison.

Having said that, although Jiangxia borders Nanyang, but... For a year, the army of Zang Ba stationed in Nanyang and the army of Jiangxia have always committed no offense, as if they had reached an agreement with each other.

- No fighting, no robbing of grain, no contact!

Of course, whether it is for Cao Wei, or Jingzhou... These are what both sides like to see, the focus of the competition between the two sides is not here, in Cao Cao's view, Zang Ba is useless even if he defeats Jiangxia, because Jiangxia has many waterways... Zang Ba's subordinates are all Taishan soldiers, and they are not good at this... Most of them can't hold it.

In the same way, Jiangxia has many water troops... To attack the Nanyang Basin, marching and fighting in the intricate mountains and basins is not a strong point... After coming and going, although the stalemate here is unexpected, it is also reasonable and completely justified.

Of course, no war is no war ... The guard Liao Hua still has to go back to garrison...

No, come and say goodbye to Guan Lin.

But it's okay if he doesn't come to resign, he is here, but Guan Lin seems to be all about "writing", and he doesn't hear anything outside the window at all... Such a big Liao Hua stood there for a long time, and he didn't notice it.

Liao Hua didn't dare to interrupt Guan Lin's thoughts... I'm afraid that he has thought of an important point, and his interruption will cause a big disaster.

Idle and bored, Liao Hua simply picked up the paper on the ground and read it one by one.

It doesn't matter if you read it, Liao Hua knows every word in it, but there is no doubt about it... Taken together, these words are somewhat divine.

"The study of the immortals, the study of etiquette and regulations, the study of the luni-yang calendar... The Three Emperors of Heaven, Earth and Man... They are formed by the "Great Ancestral Qi", also known as Tianbaojun, Shenbaojun, Lingbaojun... Jindan faction, Ge Hong? Who is Ge Hong? And this...'The Doctrine of Lifting and Pitching, the Ritual of Rotating the Three Thousand, the Art of Attacking and Defending the Pleasures, the Festival of Light Body and Righteousness, the Joy and Sorrow of Pleasure, the Strategy of the World, and the Confucianism', What... What the hell? ”

The more Liao Hua looked at it, the more mysterious he felt... It's all cultivating immortals, asked... Oh my God!

It's like a mantra, it's like a scripture... Dare to love, and the story of ascending to become an immortal?

It's because it's outrageous, Liao Hua is still quite serious, but Guan Lin has stopped writing, and he hasn't noticed...

"When did General Liao come?"

Guan Lin noticed Liao Hua in the room, walked to his side, and saw that he was reading a volume..."Hug Puzi Inner Chapter", smiled, and then asked, "Why don't you let it be passed on?" You've been waiting for a long time, haven't you? ”

"No..."Liao Hua hurriedly closed this article..."The last general is going back to Jiangxia today to garrison and come to bid farewell to Gongzi to see if Gongzi has anything that needs to be explained..."

This one...

Guan Lin thought about it a little, it was really there, and it was even closely related to the "god chatter" thing he wrote all morning.

He said quite solemnly: "Reverse Wei through the skillful craftsman Ma Jun... Successfully imitated the flying ball, simply... Their fire can't do it, and it can't make poisonous smoke, and the casualties in Xuchang City are not large, but they just burned some houses... However, it also gave me a wake-up call... I think about it again, the reverse Wei sits on Si, Xu, Yan, Yu, Qing, You, Ji, and... There is also Yongliang, and Liaodong, such a land of Kyushu... How many of them are talented? If Ma Jun can imitate the flying ball, then perhaps... There will also be people who will try to imitate and refine the white phosphorus of Jiangxia An Lucheng..."

When it came to the imitation of white phosphorus, Liao Hua suddenly mentioned the spirit of twelve, and even a lot of imminent urgency appeared on his cheeks, "So so... After I went back, I paid attention to the suspicious people in the city, but I couldn't let this white phosphorus be copied by the reverse Wei..."

"Defense, I'm afraid it's not easy to prevent!" Guan Lin sighed, "The output of this white phosphorus is so large, it is easy to steal some of it from many people such as hand refining, transportation, storage, etc., but the amount stolen is not large, and it is not easy to transport, and it can't become a climate, only... I was worried that they would make a special trip to Anlu City to study and try to imitate it on the spot, so I wrote a lot of classic works about Taoism..."

"There are two books in it... You need to pay close attention, one is Ge Xuan's "Hug Puzi Inner Chapter", and the other is Zuo Ci's "Taiqing Danjing"... That's all I can think of, through these books... Find this Ge Xuan and Zuo Ci... Be sure to let me know as soon as possible! Others mixed into Jiangxia and imitated white phosphorus... I'm not afraid, but these two Taoists can't keep it together... They can really imitate the refining method of 'white phosphorus'! ”

——"The Inner Chapter of Hug Puzi" is Ge Hong's work.

- "Taiqing Danjing" is Zuo Ci's work.

Of course, Guan Lin never believed that this world had ghost power to mess with the gods, and he never believed that this world could soar into immortals, but... Ge Hong and Zuo Ci are real.

Ge Hong put it aside, according to the deduction of time... Today's "Great Magician", "Great Chemist", "Alchemy Sect" Zuo Ci... But in the territory of Cao Wei, he was also recruited by Cao Cao!

A cliché...

The invention of gunpowder can be traced back to the origin... It was these "alchemy" Taoist priests who completed it in the process of tinkering with the "elixir", such as the refining of white phosphorus, which is nothing more than a chemical formula!

It's not even... This Zuo Ci... This pretending to be an immortal, but in fact he is proficient in the trick of blinding, the great magician, the magic stick, if it's him... Maybe we can really come up with this so-called "chemical formula"!

Once he's going to imitate white phosphorus...

That pair of Sanxing big men... It will be a catastrophic, devastating blow!
