Chapter 177: The Use of Gunpowder

Daoist Shu Ke said with a hint of horror: "Qi Daoyou, don't misunderstand, Poor Dao definitely doesn't want to use gunpowder to commit evil. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”

Qi Dezhong said with a smile: "Tianjing City is strictly controlled inside and outside, you just want to be a traitor, it won't be Qi who finds you first, if you violate the laws of the world, you will naturally have a law enforcement department, I just saw that Shu Daochang is not like such a person, so I took the initiative to ask, otherwise where would I sit and talk here?"

Daoist Shu Ke sighed as if he had been relieved: "Don't hide it from fellow Daoists, when Poor Dao was cultivating in the mountains and wilderness, he was accompanied by a fellow practitioner, but at that time, the official government sent people to open the mountain for mining, and accidentally caused a landslide, burying the cave of my fellow practitioner under the heavy mountain rocks, and never to be seen again. ”

Qi Dezhong's expression was slightly restricted: "I see...... Did Shu Daochang want to use gunpowder to blow up the rocks to rescue his fellow practitioners? However, if you are not careful, the power of the gunpowder explosion may affect your fellow practitioners, which is not appropriate. ”

But he saw that Daoist Shu Ke shook his head and said: "Actually, this matter has been a long time, and Poor Dao originally wanted to work hard to help his fellow practitioners, but if Poor Dao was in such a situation, I am afraid that he would have to sit in the mountains." The development of gunpowder is actually to make up for all kinds of regrets......"

According to Daoist Shu Ke, he saw that since the growth of material resources in the world, people in the world have collected all available things from all over the mountains and rivers, especially the smelting of coal and iron, and with the current war in Kyushu, the demand for these things will only increase.

However, today's mining is still used by the people to carry on their shoulders, mining and digging by manpower, not to mention the slow speed, for the six senses are ignorant, lack of understanding of the shape of the mountains and rivers of the ordinary people, the opening of the mountain is often accompanied by considerable danger.

The collapse of the mine cave and the explosion of poisonous evil are all trivial matters, but to put it mildly, the vibration affects the shape of the mountains and rivers, causing turmoil inside and outside the radius, which is not good for ordinary people in the world after all.

As for the initiates of the Shu Ke Dao Master, who were buried in the mountains and rocks and could not get out of the trap, this was nothing compared to the earth cracking and landslides and the catastrophe that affected the world. Moreover, cultivators who really have great mana will generally choose a place away from people to build a blessed place for cultivation, and then comb the earth qi as support.

In the final analysis, the initiates of Daoist Shu Ke will be buried in it, and it is also because they themselves have not practiced enough, and there is no such calamity to complain about the heavens and others, since ancient times, cultivation has never been a smooth road.

Practitioners need to have a quiet and stable blessed land for cultivation, and people in the worldly world need to mine deposits to drive the growth of material resources, but at the same time, they need to ensure that mining does not damage their own footing environment, which requires a quick and safe means to be used.

"So you plan to use gunpowder to open the mountain?" Qi Dezhong's face was suspicious, because he thought about it, and always felt that the crux of the world here was not this, "Shu Daochang, your idea is just to solve how to make it more convenient to open the mountain for mining, but the shaking of the mountains and rivers has not changed at all. Moreover, compared with the digging and digging of the people in the past, the gunpowder opening of the mountain is more powerful and more difficult to grasp, and the slightest carelessness will cause disasters far beyond human digging. ”

Daoist Shu Ke cringed and asked, "Poor Dao cultivation is shallow, and this time I also want to ask Qi Daoyou about this matter." ”

"You don't have to. Qi Dezhong said: "Because in Qi's eyes, there is no one-and-done solution to this matter. The world can only explore step by step and find a solution on its own. The trend of material growth in the world is irreversible, but the world must not forget it, and it is also based on heaven and earth.

As for the method of turbulence of mountains and rivers, either to find a wilderness realm far away from people to extract mineral deposits, or to think of a way to sense the subtleties of the shape of mountains and rivers, seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and that's it. ”

Daoist Shu Ke asked in a soft voice, "Then can you use the cultivator's great mana to detect the movements of mountains and rivers?"

Qi Dezhong replied with a smile: "Cultivators don't practice for the sake of mining. When cultivation arrives, it naturally has all kinds of extraordinary and wonderful interests, and practicing the Tao method as a fundamental method can indeed sense the trend of mountains and rivers and the location of mineral deposits, but it is not necessary...... If others don't say it, Qi doesn't need this, so why bother to cast a spell and induce it? This is where the cultivation fate lies, and there is no need not to do it naturally. ”

"But ......"

Seeing that Daoist Shu Ke was about to speak and stopped, Qi Dezhong immediately understood: "Is Daoist Shu thinking about the masters of the Heavenly King Sect? Indeed, if today, the Wang Sect is in ruins everywhere, and it is facing the three-legged situation of Kyushu, it is imperative to make great efforts to promote material resources, and the cultivators in the sect will definitely participate in it.

Of course, it is impossible to let the cultivators of the sect go to mining, but as long as the small mana is cast, it will naturally make it more convenient for the people to mine, and the turmoil in the mountains and rivers that Shu Daochang is worried about should also be avoided. ”

Qi Dezhong actually didn't say something clearly, of course, ordinary mineral deposits didn't have much meaning for cultivators, but the essence of the mineral essence formed by burying the earth's veins for thousands of years was a heavenly and earthly treasure for refining magic weapons and even assisting the magic of various paths.

As far as Qi Dezhong has seen, the cold crystal chalcedony is also similar. If you rely on the strength of the people alone, I am afraid that you may not be able to dig deep into the veins in hundreds of years. The essence of this kind of mineral essence is often the "source stone" of a vein, once forcibly excavated by external forces, it is very likely to cause mountains and rivers to shake, and the situation will be more terrible than the collapse of mountain rocks.

It is precisely because of this that cultivators generally do not take the initiative to seek the source stone of the mineral marrow, and the Taihua Sect even has a precept that strictly prohibits disciples from using their magic power to forcibly take unborn heavenly and earthly treasures. Under normal circumstances, only after the source stone of the mineral pith is exposed to the outside world in the changes of the mountains and rivers, the cultivators will collect it for use, which shows its preciousness.

When the marrow source stone is not mined, its own form is very mysterious, and it is even possible to dissipate the spirit in the whole ore vein and disappear by itself, not to mention that not all ore veins can form the marrow source stone.

"Daoist Shu, where were you and that fellow practitioner in the cave back then?" Qi Dezhong asked after pondering for a while.

"In the Taihang Mountains. Shu Daochang was puzzled: "Why did Qi Daoyou ask about this?"

Qi Dezhong noticed that Shu Daochang was trying his best to hide his vigilance in his tone, as if he was frightened by something, and it was obvious that he was hiding something else.

"Since Shu Daochang has developed a new type of gunpowder, there is no need to treasure it for himself. Qi Dezhong said: "Everything in the world has its use, but it depends on the user's heart. If I try it here, I may be able to cast a spell to cover up the sound, but after all, the city is densely populated, so it's not good if something happens......

I just heard Daoist Shu mention that the initiates were buried by the mountains and rocks, but I think that you can use the gunpowder you carefully refined as a sacrifice to open the mountains and break the rocks and find the initiates, no matter what the other party's life and death are, after all, you can relieve the confusion in your heart, so as not to regret it for life.
