Misunderstandings brought about by hot air balloons
Li Jian obviously hesitated after listening to Li Zhi's words.
However, when he thought that Li Zhi was beside him, he nodded firmly.
Li Zhi smiled and patted Li Jian's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, we will come back safely." ”
After saying this, he asked Yuan Tiangang for two thin blankets, and then pulled Li Jian into the hanging basket together.
At this time, all the people around looked a little nervous, and no one had ever seen anyone able to fly into the sky.
No one believed that Li Zhi could do it with just such a simple thing.
But when they saw Li Zhi's confident appearance, they inexplicably gave birth to a sense of anticipation.
If Li Zhi succeeds, it will be a miracle created by mankind.
Under the gaze of everyone with bated breath, Li Zhi opened the valve of the gas canister, and then took out a match and lit it.
Li Zhi quickly opened the valve to the maximum, and the blue flames instantly rose more than two feet high.
The whirring sound of the violently burning flames continued to heat the air inside the hot air balloon.
It didn't take long for the baskets to slowly start to move off the ground, and everyone stared at the scene with wide eyes.
The balloon rose higher and higher, and soon overtook the surrounding rooftops.
At this point, no wind was felt on the ground, so the balloon continued to rise in a straight line.
Li Jian's hands were tightly holding the hanging basket, he wanted to be as calm as possible.
But his trembling body quickly revealed all his disguises.
Li Zhi came to Li Jian's side and stretched out his hand to wrap his shoulder.
When Li Jian's eyes looked at him, he said, "Eleventh brother, from this moment on, your name has entered the history books.
In the future, the world will spread your deeds today.
So you shouldn't be scared, but proud of it. ”
After Li Zhi's words were finished, without waiting for Li Jian to reply, he saw that the hot air balloon had begun to move.
And the direction of movement seems to be getting closer and closer to Chang'an City.
Li Jian boldly looked down and found that the crowd in the academy had become the size of ants.
The whole academy looked like nothing more than a chessboard.
With Li Zhi's operation, the hot air balloon slowly floated towards the southeast at this fixed height.
When the two gradually approached Chang'an City, they were soon discovered by the people in the city, and then the entire Chang'an City was boiling.
"Look, what's floating in the sky? Why is the shape so peculiar? ”
As one of the civilians spoke, the people around them raised their heads almost simultaneously.
"That seems like a ball! How could anyone make such a big ball? One of them said suspiciously.
"This thing flies so high! I'm afraid it's not going to fly higher than the goshawk. ”
"It's heading in the direction of Zhongnan Mountain, isn't it that an immortal is returning on a mount?"
"Such a miraculous thing must be owned by an extraordinary person, why don't I follow it to worship an old immortal?"
"What Brother Tai said is reasonable, go quickly, if you can win the favor of the gods, you will be accepted under the door."
"Wait a few brothers, I'm going to go together!"
Some of the people in the city were nervously discussing what was floating in the sky, while others were very bold and running after hot air balloons.
They all agreed that the hot air balloon in the sky was the mount of the gods, and they all looked forward to being accepted by the gods.
So Li Zhi, who was at a high altitude, saw an army of ants suddenly appear in Chang'an City, chasing them in the direction where the two flew.
The hot air balloon soon flew away from Chang'an City and floated all the way in the direction of Zhongnan Mountain.
At this time, the crowd below was even more convinced that it must be an immortal returning from the wandering party, so they chased harder.
Li Zhi quickly replaced a gas tank at this time.
He looked at the crowd below and quipped, "Don't these people regard you and my brother as immortals, right?" ”
At this time, Li Jian's mood was obviously calmed down a lot.
He looked at the scene below and said, "Brother Jiu, don't say it.
Standing in the sky and looking at the crowd below, I really feel like I've become an immortal! ”
Li Zhi smiled and said, "Then you should hurry to Zhongnan Mountain to start a sect."
The people below want to worship you as a teacher! ”
After listening to Li Zhi's words, Li Jian said: "If you do that, won't you beat the little brother to death when the people know what happened?" ”
Li Zhi said with a smile: "Brother, don't be afraid, when the time comes, Brother Jiu will block the news and secretly spread some news."
It won't be long before you become famous, and you can be a rejuvenated immortal with peace of mind. ”
Li Jian quickly shook his head after listening to Li Zhi's words, he didn't want to die of old age in Zhongnan Mountain.
At this time, he looked at the gradually disappearing crowd below, and felt that this so-called thousands of miles of rivers and mountains were actually not very big.
Even Chang'an, which originally seemed huge, is now just a larger chessboard.
Li Zhi once again increased the flame to make the hot air balloon fly higher, and then the hot air balloon slowly changed its flight direction.
Li Jian watched Li Zhi's operations seriously, and couldn't help but be curious when he found that the wind direction had suddenly changed.
"Brother Jiu, have you found out? The wind seems to have changed! Li Jian said.
At this time, the two of them were flying in the direction of due east towards Zhongnan Mountain.
Li Zhi said while putting a thin blanket on Li Jian and himself: "Brother Jiu doesn't know what the reason is.
If you're interested, you can look into it. ”
Li Zhi knew the concept of the troposphere and stratosphere, but he really didn't have that ability to make him say that he was ugly.
While the two were talking, they soon came to the sky above Zhongnan Mountain.
Looking down at the snow-covered snow and smoky clouds of Jungnam Mountain from the sky, it is like entering a fairyland on earth.
Li Zhi adjusted the altitude several times in a row and finally encountered the west wind, and then the two began to return home.
By this time, Li Jian had no fear at all, and he was now full of yearning for this feeling of flying.
He kept looking around, and from time to time he would open his arms to feel the feeling of the wind blowing on his body.
Soon the two returned to the sky above Chang'an City again, and by this time, the actions of the two had already alarmed Li Shimin.
When Li Zhi began to descend the height of the hot air balloon, Li Shimin also knew the truth of this incident.
So when it took Li Zhi half a day to finally slowly descend to a clearing in the west of the city before dark, tragedy soon followed.
During Li Zhi's landing, there was always a team of cavalry running in the direction of the hot air balloon below.
When the two were about to land, a large group of people and horses quickly gathered in the distance.
Just as the two of them happily climbed out of the hanging basket, a roar suddenly sounded from behind the cavalry.
"Li Zhi, you roll over to Lao Tzu."
