Tao Chengdao suddenly blocked Han Du's hand, raised his finger and cursed angrily: "Don't even think about it! What I have dreamed of all my life is to fly to the sky. Now that I finally have the opportunity, how can I give it to you?"
"Wanhu, this hot air balloon is also very dangerous. You are quite old, can you please stop making trouble?" Seeing Tao Chengdao being so persistent, Han Du could only continue to persuade with a wry smile.
Tao Chengdao's eyes widened when he heard this, and he shouted sternly: "Who is making trouble with you? Since you said this thing is dangerous, you should come down too. If you, the majestic Marquis of Zhenhai, have something wrong with you, what should you do?"
Since Han Du stopped him and refused to let him in, Tao Chengdao simply did the opposite and took Han Du's arm to pull him out.
"Wanhu, can you please stop making trouble?" Han Du smiled bitterly and struggled twice, but could not break free from Tao Chengdao's hand.
He had no choice but to say: "I know this thing better than anyone else. It's safer for me to try it than for others, right?"
Tao Chengdao took advantage of Han Du's resistance and jumped into the hanging basket. Said: "That's just right. Feitian will definitely go smoothly with you by my side. What are you looking at? Come on, do it quickly. Didn't you see that the emperor and the people have been waiting for so long with their necks stretched out?"
Lao Zhu didn't think too much when Tao Chengdao followed Han Du towards the hot air balloon. Han Du did not tell Lao Zhu this time how he flew into the sky, so Lao Zhu thought that Tao Chengdao was originally with Han Du.
When Tao Chengdao and Han Du started to give in, because they were too far away, everyone didn't know what the two were doing and thought they were discussing.
When Han Du saw Tao Chengdao jump in, he sat down on the sandbag, put his hands through the hollow of the rattan hanging basket, crossed each other and hugged each other tightly. He looked at Han Du warily, fearing that Han Du would go over and force him out.
Seeing that Tao Chengdao was so resolute, and that it was really inappropriate to argue with Tao Chengdao at a time when the emperor and all the people were eagerly waiting for him, Han Du had no choice but to let him go with him.
Handu opened the nozzle, turned the winch, and began to apply pressure to the watering can. At the same time, the other hand took out the fire folding device, opened it, blew on the fire folding device to light it up, and placed it at the spout.
Just a few breaths later, there was a muffled "bang" sound from the flames, and the flames at the nozzle rose up to a foot high.
"Wow..."
The emperor and officials in the inner court had no reaction, but the people in the outer court suddenly burst out into noise. The sudden burst of such a big flame really startled them, but at the same time it also made the people feel even more excited.
This was not over yet. As Han Du continued to rotate the winch, the flames from the nozzle continued to grow taller.
One foot... two feet, three feet, four feet, five feet. The flames increased to a full five feet before stopping.
Inside the shriveled hot air balloon, it was as if a pair of giant hands were turning over it, gradually holding the hot air balloon up.
When the hot air balloon is filled, the entire sphere will appear round at the top and pointed at the bottom.
When the hot air balloon was filled and showed its true appearance, the entire campus was silent. Even Lao Zhu couldn't help but stood up and stared in amazement.
Because what was displayed in front of everyone was a behemoth that was six feet tall and four feet in diameter. The tallest building in the capital is the Seafood Building, with a total of five floors, but it is only four feet high.
In other words, the behemoth in front of you is bigger than a tall building.
When people see a behemoth, they will always feel fear in their hearts, especially when the behemoth can fly in the sky, this fear becomes more obvious.
What is shown is that the people who just needed the army to maintain order now can't help but take two steps back. Moreover, there were so many ordinary people in the university grounds, and they all retreated in unison. This shows how shocking the hot air balloon was to the ordinary people.
Han Du controlled the oil switch and saw that the rope was stretched straight and even started to swing. Unable to free his hands, he quickly shouted to Tao Chengdao: "Throw the sandbags out quickly, quickly~"
Tao Chengdao was stunned when he heard this, and then he instantly let go of his hand and threw the sandbags one by one out of the hanging basket.
Although Lao Zhu saw something being thrown out of the hanging basket, he ignored it.
As the load decreases, the hot air balloon gradually leaves the ground with its hanging basket and really flies.
"Hahaha..." Tao Chengdao saw that he was getting higher and higher from the ground. He was as excited as a child who had not grown up. He threw all the sandbags with all his energy.
When Han Du noticed that the hot air balloon was rising faster and faster, he lowered his head and realized what was going on. He asked blankly: "Why did you throw away all the sandbags?"
"Hahaha, the lighter this thing is, the faster it flies. Of course I have to throw away all the sandbags." Tao Chengdao became more and more excited as he watched it get higher and higher from the ground.
"But you threw away all the sandbags. If it flies too high, how can we get back?" Han Du asked sharply.
However, Tao Chengdao neither answered nor showed the slightest regret.
Han Du reacted immediately and said: "No, I will reduce the firepower immediately and let's go back."
"We've just started flying, and you're going back?" Tao Chengdao was immediately dissatisfied.
But Han Du didn't care whether he was satisfied or not. How could his own safety be important? This is the first flight of a hot air balloon. I don’t know if it will be successful or if there will be any problems. Of course safety comes first.
Han Du said without hesitation: "Of course, I wasn't prepared to fly very high this time, so I put so many sandbags in the basket just to avoid flying too high all at once. The higher this thing flies, the higher it flies." The more dangerous it is, and I haven’t lived enough, how can I seek death?”
But when Tao Chengdao saw Han Du lowering the flames, he immediately became anxious and stepped forward to push Han Du aside. He rotated the winch vigorously and increased the firepower to the maximum.
The hot air balloon, whose speed had just weakened, once again rushed towards the sky out of thin air.
"What are you going to do?" Han Du was frightened, angry and angry.
Tao Chengdao looked at the rising flames and the huge hot air balloon above the flames with excitement, and said without looking back: "How many years have I been waiting for this day? For so many years, I have long wanted to Go to heaven and see, today I can finally get what I want, how can I give up halfway?"
Han Du was angry. This was not the way to seek death. Besides, you are an old man who has lived enough and wants to die. You are still very young and want to continue living. How can you risk your life with you?
Han Du stepped forward and was about to pull Tao Chengdao away.
As soon as his hand touched Tao Chengdao, he said sternly: "If you dare to pull me away, I will jump from here.
Han Du's face suddenly stiffened when he heard this, and he didn't dare to take action. Now the hot air balloon has flown dozens of meters high. If the old man really jumps off, he will definitely die.
Seeing that Lai was too tough, Han Du had no choice but to persuade him in a soft tone: "Wanhu, why are you doing this? That's it for this time, let's go down first, and wait until next time to perfect this thing, let's fly again. Isn’t it the same?”
Tao Chengdao glanced at Han Du, shook his head and sighed: "You are still young, you can wait for the next time, or even the next time. You can take your time and not be in a hurry. But I can't wait any longer. I sleep every night now I don't know if I can see the sun again the next day. If I continue to wait, I'm afraid I won't be able to see the scenery in the sky for the rest of my life. As long as I can see the scenery in the sky with my own eyes, I will be dead. It’s worth it.”
You are worth it, but I am not! Han Du couldn't help but complain to Tao Chengdao, an old man, that despite all his calculations, he never expected that he would have such a fight with him. He forced himself to the point where he had no way out, so he had no choice but to accompany him and risk his life.
"Ten thousand households, there is nothing beautiful in the sky. It is all water vapor, and there is not even a hair on it."
"How do you know?" Tao Chengdao immediately widened his eyes and stared at Han Du closely. If other people said this, Tao Chengdao would just laugh and not care at all, because he knew that the person who said this was definitely bragging.
But when Han Du said this, he felt an inexplicable sense of trust in his heart, and he firmly believed that what Han Du said was true.
Han Du lowered his head, not knowing how to explain.
Tao Chengdao suddenly laughed and said, "Whether what you say is true or false, I will see it soon." After that, he ignored Han Du and turned his gaze to the sky.
Han Du lowered his head and saw that the figures on the ground were getting smaller and smaller. He first saw the entire campus, and then gradually distinguished the figures below. Even Lao Zhu and Han Du could only distinguish it through the bright yellow color.
Then the outline of the entire capital city appeared in his sight, with neat streets and houses lined up on the ground.
Zhongshan, Xuanwu Lake, the Yangtze River and the ships on the river. When Han Du saw wisps of clouds appearing in his sight, Han Du became alert. Tao Chengdao had already flown the hot air balloon into the clouds.
Lao Zhu on the ground watched the hot air balloon flying higher and higher. Although he had just been shocked by the hugeness of the hot air balloon, he still frowned. An Qing on the side saw the hot air balloon flying higher and smaller, and knew that Han Du was staying on top. She suddenly felt uncomfortable that Han Du was about to leave him, and couldn't help turning her head towards Lao Zhu and calling softly: "Father, Han Du..."
When Lao Zhu heard this, he immediately ordered to Jiang Wei beside him: "Send a fast horse immediately to chase after him."
"According to the order."
The people didn't think so much. They were all astonished to see such a huge creature that could fly without wings.
Some people even shouted: "It has ascended to heaven, it has really ascended to heaven!" Just when this person was inexplicably excited, he was instantly slapped on the back of the head.
"Who, who did it? Which bastard dares to beat us?" The man immediately turned around, his eyes as wide as bells, and he kept scanning the crowd, trying to find the person who had done something dirty to him.
An old man with gray hair snorted and immediately responded: "I beat you, why don't you accept it?"
When the young man saw that it was an old man, he suddenly became short of breath. He did not fight back or argue with the old man. Instead, he asked doubtfully: "Old man, we didn't offend you. Why did you hit me?"
The Ming Dynasty founded the country based on filial piety and promoted respecting the elderly and loving the young. The old man will naturally gain the respect of the young man. Even if the young man in front of him does not know him, and even if the old man hits him first, the young man has no intention of hitting him.
The old man was extremely arrogant. He didn't say anything about the beating, and he didn't show any kindness to the young man. He reprimanded: "I'm going to hit you. If you can't speak, just shut up that shit-spewing thing of yours. What?" Called ascending to the sky? This is flying to the sky, a feat that no one has been able to achieve since ancient times. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will beat you."
The young man reacted immediately. He was hit by the old man and threatened again, but he was not angry at all. Instead, he smiled and said to the old man: "The boy can't speak. Please forgive me, forgive me. It's Feitian, Feitian!"
The old man snorted, ignored him, and looked up in the sky for traces of the hot air balloon.
Seeing that the hot air balloon was only a small dot the size of a fingertip in sight, some people couldn't help but sigh and said: "You said that if it keeps flying like this, it won't really fly into the sky, right?"
"I don't know for sure. Maybe I can actually fly to the Heavenly Palace."
"If we really fly into the Heavenly Palace, wouldn't the Marquis of Zhenhai be able to see what the fairy looks like?"
"You kid, all you can do is watch fairies. Wouldn't it be better if you could pick a flat peach and bring it back? Wouldn't it be better to eat that thing and live forever?"
"Then Marquis Zhenhai should pick more. How can one be enough? There should be at least a hundred."
"A thousand..."
"Ten thousand..."
At this time, the hot air balloon gradually flew into the clouds. The people immediately exclaimed, "Look, it's really flying into the sky."
"No more, no more, it really flew up."
"Hey, no, why did it appear again?"
"No more..."
Countless people are eagerly looking forward to seeing the hot air balloon appear again. But this time, the hot air balloon did not appear, as if it had really flown into the heaven.
"I stopped showing up. I really flew into the heavenly palace!"
Compared with the excitement of the people, Anqing was about to cry. He grabbed Lao Zhu's arm tightly with both hands and said pitifully: "Father, Han Du is missing. Has he really flown to the Heavenly Palace? Will he come back? Will he no longer have children?" "
Lao Zhu sighed deeply in his heart and thought to himself: If he dares to leave you on the ground, I will break his legs. But now he has flown into the sky, and I can't hit him even if I want to. Moreover, if there really is a heavenly palace in this world, after Han Du goes up there, will he come back again?
Lao Zhu didn't know what Han Du would choose, but if it were him, he would definitely not come back.
Although he was thinking this in his heart, he had a calm expression on his face and raised his hand to comfort him: "Don't worry, Han Du, you still don't understand? He can't let you go. Even if he goes to Tiangong, he will come back for you."
An Qing suddenly felt shy when he heard this, and his expression improved a lot.
Han Du didn't know what was going on, but now he was going crazy. As the hot air balloon entered the clouds, the surrounding temperature dropped sharply, and the water vapor stuck to the skin, making it feel wet and freezing.
"It's too cold, Wanhu, it's high enough, let's get down quickly."
Although Tao Chengdao was also shrouded in coldness, his fiery desire to fly overcame all the coldness, and he used the firepower to the maximum to let the hot air balloon continue to fly upward without hesitation.
Han Du couldn't bear it anymore, so he quickly stepped forward and hugged Tao Chengdao, pleading: "Wanhu, even if I am begging you, let's go back quickly. There is really nothing in the sky, nothing to see at all."
Tao Chengdao's hair and eyebrows were covered with fine drops of water. He turned around to see Han Du and said: "Those who travel a hundred miles are half-ninety. People in the world are just like you who give up halfway and have too many wastes, so they can do nothing all day long. .No matter how far it is, I will definitely fly to the sky this time."
Hearing this, Han Du had no choice but to curl up down to reduce his heat loss. Tao Chengdao refused, what could Han Du do? You can't force him to jump out of the basket at this time, right? If you jump from this height, you really won’t even be able to find the scum.
Surrounded by a chaotic white color, the hot air balloon instantly broke free from the clouds and jumped out from under the sea of clouds.
The whole sky was bright, with blue sky at the top, stars above, and surging clouds beneath his feet. Han Du could even see the clouds being disturbed by the impact of the hot air balloon.
The sun is high in the sky, casting thousands of golden rays of light, illuminating the entire sky.
Tao Chengdao looked at the scene in his eyes, as if he couldn't get enough of it, and murmured to himself: "Is this heaven?"
Han Du squatted in the hanging basket, shivering from the cold, and said angrily with trembling lips: "Yes, this is the sky, there is nothing. There is no heavenly palace, no Jade Emperor, no gods, and no fairies that mortals will never forget. .It’s just such a vast expanse of whiteness and emptiness.”
Tao Chengdao lowered his head at this time, met Han Du's eyes, smiled and said, "How do you know there is nothing here?"
Han Du was stunned when he heard this and didn't know how to explain it to Tao Chengdao.
However, Tao Chengdao did not wait for Han Du to explain to him, and said casually, "You are not simple, you are not simple..."
Then, he closed his eyes, loosened his hands, and fell down with weak legs.
Han Du turned around suddenly and shouted quickly: "Wanhu, what's wrong with you?"
He crawled over using his hands and feet and picked up Tao Chengdao.
"Ten thousand households, ten thousand households..."
Han Du reached out and felt for the artery on Tao Chengdao's neck. There was still a pulse, but the skin was terrifyingly cold.
"Damn it, I asked you not to come up, but you had to come up. How can you come up without being prepared?"
Han Du quickly took off his robe and wrapped it around Tao Chengdao.
Before Han Du could wrap up Tao Chengdao, everything around him became dark, and the surrounding area fell into white chaos.
Han Du quickly stood up, reached out and quickly turned the winch, turning the firepower to the maximum. After the falling speed of the hot air balloon stabilized, Han Du slowly reduced the firepower and allowed the hot air balloon to fall slowly.
