Chapter 142 Charter
Xu Wenwu, the gunman, has said it so many times that Wei Yuan's ears have become calluses. Although it is the first time for others to come into contact with Xu Wenwu, thanks to Baoyun's high pressure of 30,000 words a day, Xu Wenwu
Wen Wu has revealed enough information, and he doesn't know much less than Wei Yuan.
In Wei Yuan's understanding, the principle of guns and artillery was very simple. So he found a stone in the road foundation, casually shaped it into a long tube, closed one end, and then materialized it.
Looking at the eight-inch thick stone pipe, the size of a palm, with a dark mouth and a body of more than five feet long, Xiaoyu asked: "Is this a gun?"
"It's a gun!" Wei Yuan was very sure.
"Okay, just say so!" Xiaoyu shrugged and did not argue with Wei Yuan.
Considering that he had just been saved, Wei Yuan didn't call this thing that was almost a foot thick and half a foot long a gun. Even if it were several times bigger, it could still be a gun.
In fact, Wei Yuan had no choice. He had just tested the power of gunpowder. Now the Dao base tool is just a simple stone pipe. Without Dao rhyme, the strength will not be high. If he filled in a ball of gunpowder that was the size of his palm just now,
, Wei Yuan is afraid that Shiguan will not be able to bear it.
Zhang Sheng asked: "What is saltpeter and how did you find it?"
Ji Liuli made another pile of gunpowder and said as he was doing it: "Nitrogen, there is no corresponding name in our world. So I gave myself some good luck, and then suddenly remembered that there is a medicinal ingredient called Yan Bing, maybe it also
It works. So I tried it, and sure enough it worked. Flame ice is taken from ice stone mines, and they are everywhere. If I make a bunch of them, the price is only a few taels of mortal silver."
Only then did Wei Yuan deeply understand the power of Tianji Palace. Even if he didn't know anything, as long as he gave himself some good luck, even his guesses could be correct.
However, Wei Yuan suddenly had a new idea. If he was blessed with good luck before taking the Immortal Sect Unified Examination, wouldn't the literary test be stable? Wei Yuan was just a little excited, but then he thought that everyone in the clan might have done this a long time ago.
While talking, Ji Liuli had already prepared the gunpowder, selected a part and poured it into the stone cylinder, and directly compacted it with Dao force.
Then Zhang Sheng handed over a stone ball. It was round and flawless, and the surface was shiny. Although it was just an ordinary stone, because the surface was so smooth, it actually had a jade-like feel.
This stone ball was whittled by Zhang Sheng using his finger as a sword.
Ji Liuli filled the stone ball into the stone tube, and then Wei Yuan held the stone tube with both hands, pointed it at a big tree a few feet away, and used Taoist power to ignite the gunpowder.
With a loud bang, a ball of fire spewed out from the mouth of the stone pipe, and the stone ball roared out and embedded itself in the big tree where the two people were hugging each other!
Everyone was thinking and evaluating the power of this first gun in the world based on their own experience.
Mr. Zhang Sheng said: "It is about the same power as the Bei Liao captain's heavy arrow. It is stronger than the ordinary Liao cavalry, but not as good as the centurion. This is in terms of power, but the magic is far inferior."
Ji Liuli said: "The varieties of the Witch Clan are complicated. If we ignore the wizards, this shot can kill the blood-melting warriors, but it does not pose a fatal threat to the body casting."
Zhang Sheng and Ji Liuli have far more experience than anyone else, so their assessment is the most accurate.
Wei Yuan was recalling the feeling of shooting just now. At that moment, his whole body was shaken and his body moved slightly. Although the movement was so small that it was almost invisible, Wei Yuan had discovered that without Taoist power, he could not fully rely on his physical body alone.
To eliminate backshock, the smaller the movement, the greater the force required.
However, if you use Dao power, you can still move. Just for the purpose of testing, Wei Yuan only used the power of his physical body.
"Senior Sister, make some more gunpowder, it won't be too much." Wei Yuan said suddenly.
Ji Liuli made some more gunpowder and brought it out, about the size of a tea cup. Wei Yuan found two pieces of heavy armor, made a slight dent in the middle, then sandwiched the gunpowder in the middle, compacted it, and sealed the surrounding area.
Wei Yuan mobilized the power of the realm to suppress it on the armor, and then used Tao power to ignite the gunpowder inside. With a muffled sound, a bulge appeared in the center of the armor, and it was difficult for the power of the realm to completely suppress it.
These two pieces of armor are stored in the secret warehouse of Lan Shen Palace. They are intended to be used in the armor of Taoist monks. They are made of hundreds of refined steel and refined with Tao power. Each piece of armor is
They were half a finger thick and extremely strong, but they were still deformed by the explosion.
After reading the results of this experiment, Wei Yuan said: "It seems that the power of gunpowder will be greatly increased when it is completely sealed. Maybe we can start from this point and think of more uses."
Several people studied it for most of the night before they dispersed.
At this time, it was not far from dawn. Wei Yuan went to the stone house to take a look and saw that Xu Wenwu had gone to rest. There were only pens and paper and an empty bowl on the table.
Seeing the empty bowl, Wei Yuan remembered that he seemed to have attached a power to the bowl. But at the moment, the bowl was cold, and the power had nowhere to go. It seemed that it had dissipated.
Wei Yuan picked up the jade paper on the table and scanned it with his spiritual consciousness, and found that Xu Wenwu actually wrote more than 10,000 words in half a night. This guy has become more diligent.
Wei Yuan put down the jade paper, collected the bowl, and after returning to the summit, he began to re-examine what Xu Wenwu had written in the past two days, including the parts that had been marked as garbage.
After having the example of gunpowder, Wei Yuan had seen a completely different world and had a new understanding of the value of Xu Wenwu's words.
The top of the main peak was not quiet. There was a tinkling sound at this time. Xiaoyu built a stove by himself and began to smelt iron and gold. He was building something. After a while, Xiaoyu had an iron pipe in his hand, and then poured some gunpowder into it. He got used to it.
He used the Fairy Sword and the Great Sun to bless it. The gunpowder in the iron pipe was ignited and a ball of flame spewed out from the mouth of the pipe.
At this time, the nozzle of the tube was facing his face. Xiaoyu was caught off guard and several hairs were singed by the flames. His cultivation was still shallow and he could not train on his hair.
Zhang Sheng's side was also dimly lit by fire, but there was no sound.
Ji Liuli has disappeared, maybe he has discovered something new.
Wei Yuan calmed down, Xu Wenwu's world seemed to appear in the sea of consciousness, and he quietly
Observe, see how the mortals live over there, and think about the meaning.
There was still an hour before dawn, and Wei Yuan was awakened from his immersion in another world.
Baoyun appeared in front of Wei Yuan and said, "I'll set off first, and you'll follow in a moment. I'll leave marks along the way, and any abnormalities will be explained in the marks."
Wei Yuan nodded and took stock of the preparations in Daoji. After a while, Ji Liuli also set off, following Bao Yun. Wei Yuan would set off even later.
The three of them kept a distance from each other, mainly so as not to disturb the people in front. If Bao Yun was alone, she could come in and out under the eyes of the great witch. Ji Liuli couldn't do it, and Wei Yuan couldn't do it either.
Wei Yuan sat on the main peak, waiting for the moment to set off. While waiting, he suddenly thought that the Daoji monk's soul was very powerful. For example, if he wanted to set off in a moment, the soul would naturally remind him when the time came, and there would be no difference at all.
But ordinary people's timing is very vague. Let alone ordinary people, even body-casting monks, as long as they have not reached the stage of god refining, are almost the same as ordinary people in this aspect.
In daily life, timekeeping of less than half a quarter is very vague. Even monks often use a stick of incense, a cup of tea, a breath, etc. instead. In terms of timekeeping accuracy, it is far less precise than in the civil and military world.
Mortals in that world seem to live a very meticulous life. They go out at a fixed time every day and rush to the workplace to work. Even if they are only late for a cup of tea, half a day's wages will be deducted.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that the lives of ordinary people in that world are not very satisfactory?
While thinking about it, Yuan Shen reminded that it was time to set off, and Wei Yuan got up and flew to the southwest. At this time, the realm was silent, and everyone except the monks who were keeping vigil were resting and preparing for a day of work.
As soon as he left the realm, Wei Yuan stopped flying and ran on the ground. In the distance, he could see a faint green light flashing, guiding him in the direction.
This is the mark left by Baoyun. Only those who possess the seeds of her treasure tree can see it. She gave Ji Liuli and Zhang Sheng seeds before departure, but Wei Yuan possesses a wonderful treasure tree, so there is no need for it.
Plant seeds again.
Wei Yuan ran all the way like this, feeling that he was getting further and further away from Qingming, and the bonus of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains was gradually decreasing. Every few dozen miles, Baoyun would leave a mark. The mark not only guides the direction, but also
Contains some surrounding information.
Along the way, Wei Yuan bypassed several groups of Wu clan members or patrol teams, and the encounters were quite frequent. It seemed that the Wu clan had accelerated the pace of occupation.
The more Witch Clan living in a place, the more the world will transform into the Witch Domain. The Witch Clan does not have such a thing as a boundary stone, nor does it need it. They only need to thrive in a place and perform daily sacrifices, and they can slowly change the world.
The larger the population, the faster and more thorough the changes will be.
In the blink of an eye, the sky was getting brighter. Wei Yuan saw the last mark and followed the mark's guidance to the top of a hill. Baoyun and Ji Liuli had already arrived and were looking into the distance.
Wei Yuan followed their gaze and saw a large camp on the plains dozens of miles away. Judging from the size of the camp, it should be able to accommodate at least 50,000 people. However, the dome barracks inside are not yet large enough.
30% of the whole battalion, it seems that the main force is still behind.
The camp uses a wooden and earth structure as the wall, which is one foot high. There is a natural high platform in the center, with an altar built on it, and a circle of red symbols around it, each with a radius of about ten feet.
Wei Yuan compared what he had learned in his mind and immediately recognized that the altar was the altar for worshiping heaven at the core of the Wu Clan military camp. At this time, the runes around the altar were flashing with blood, indicating that a sacrifice had been completed and there were now sacrifices in the altar.
force.
The power of sacrifice has a wide range of uses. It can be turned into a blood curse that corrodes the world, or it can be cursed to kill a powerful monk. Wei Yuan has experienced both of these. In addition, it can also bless a certain sorcerer, and it can also be used for protection.
The whole camp.
At this time, Baoyun said: "There are 12,000 people in the camp, which is 1,500 more than when I came to see it yesterday. They should be the new arrivals last night. I checked carefully and found that the traces of the great witch nearby were the ones we killed."
It’s just a lizard, and there is no sign of the activity of the second great witch yet.”
Ji Liuli looked at the sky and said, "They will send out troops to patrol the camp in half an hour. We have to hurry up."
Baoyun asked Wei Yuan: "What regulations?"
Looking at the Wu Clan camp, Wei Yuan suddenly flashed in front of his eyes those people who lived worse than pigs and dogs in the northern district of Quliu Town, flashed past the view of the capital in Shayang Village, and then thought of Fang Hetong's headless corpse.
Wei Yuan said calmly: "Kill them all and leave no one behind."
