"Hey, why are you walking so fast!"
Zhao Hao chased Mo Xuan from behind and shouted at him in confusion.
Mo Xuan waved his hands and whispered: "Follow me, don't talk." Trampling on the gravel road that had not been repaired, it was like walking on flat ground. Zhao Hao was far less skilled than Mo Xuan in walking on such a road.
The two turned through a forest and entered another forest. When they looked at the laboratory building behind them, they disappeared without a trace.
At this moment, Mo Xuan paused and raised his hand to signal Zhao Hao to stop.
"What is one?"
An ethereal sound came from the distant mountain stream.
Mo Xuan gestured with his right hand and drew a circle in the sky, and said softly: "One is round, and the other is long."
"What is two?"
"Two things are different and become two!"
As soon as he said this, a Mohist disciple walked out of the mountain stream, holding a white flag and waving it left and right: "Black card, pass——"
"Let's go."
Mo Xuan waved his hand, signaling Zhao Hao to continue moving forward.
Zhao Hao pointed at the mountain stream and then at his mouth, making gestures with a surprised expression, which looked very funny.
Mo Xuan chuckled: "You can talk now. I didn't expect you to be quite obedient!"
"How did you find this mountain stream? It's so beautiful. I didn't even know there was such a place in Xianyang!"
Zhao Hao stared at the mountain stream ahead and said in surprise.
Mo Xuan rolled his eyes at him and curled his lips: "Is it beautiful? How does it compare to your senior sister?"
"ah?"
Zhao Hao was stunned and looked back at Mo Xuan with some confusion: "What senior sister? Are you talking to me?"
"Don't lie to me, your senior sister is inside, chatting with my master."
"Does my senior sister know senior Deng Lingzi?"
Zhao Hao was surprised for a moment, then shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I said why you suddenly turned against me, it turned out to be because of my senior sister. But don't worry, my senior sister is not close to me. At most, she is protecting me under the orders of my master. I."
"I know."
Mo Xuan muttered and said as he walked: "You have offended so many people and no one is protecting you. Sooner or later you will be killed. If Master hadn't agreed to your terms, I, Chu Mo, might have been among the people who killed you."
As he said that, he looked back and smiled: "When the time comes, your senior sister will definitely burst into tears: Wow, my junior brother was killed!"
"That's weird, my senior sister is amazing, even better than you!"
"Humph, no matter how powerful you are, you can't resist the large number of us."
"Are you the only ones with people? I also have people. It's still unclear who will win."
While bickering, the two of them continued to move forward. After walking for an unknown distance, they came to a stone cliff.
I saw Deng Lingzi, dressed in coarse linen clothes, sitting on a straw mat, sipping tea and looking at the scenery in the mountains.
Next to him, there is a woman in purple robe, playing the piano leisurely.
"Young Master Hao, it's rare to see you, why don't you come up and sit down?"
Zhao Hao was fascinated by the music of the piano, and a rich sound suddenly reached his ears.
Following the sound, he discovered that Deng Lingzi, who was looking at the scenery in the mountains, was looking at him with a smile on his face. He quickly bowed and said: "Hao, I have met senior Deng Lingzi."
Deng Lingzi slightly cupped his hands and said: "Oh, I have been in the world for decades, and today I meet the young master. It is a worthwhile trip. Mo Xuan, let me have a banquet. I want to have a good talk with the young master Hao!"
"Teacher, you are so kind."
Mo Xuan smiled, tears of joy flowed from his eyes, and he came to prostrate himself in front of Deng Lingzi.
Deng Lingzi smiled and helped Mo Xuan up, and brushed the dust off her body kindly and lovingly: "Mo Xuan, in the past few months, you have written to me many times and argued hard, so you forced me to come to Xianyang in person to test the authenticity. I believe you. , I agree that the three inks can be integrated into one, but it’s really hard to rest assured if I don’t see him face to face, do you understand?”
"teacher"
Mo Xuan's tears welled up again.
Zhao Hao was on the side, looking confused and didn't know why.
Wasn't it Deng Lingzi himself who said he wanted to see him at the beginning? Why does it sound like Mo Xuan forced him to come to see him?
Also, wasn’t it Deng Lingzi who was troubled by the heavy rain pear blossom needle? What else is hidden in this?
While Zhao Hao looked confused, Wei Yanran, who was playing the piano, smiled and pressed the strings, and said leisurely: "Junior brother, are you okay?"
"Senior sister plays the piano very well. It's the first time for junior brother to hear it. It's really a fairy sound that lingers in your ears!"
Zhao Hao smiled and cupped his hands.
Wei Yanran smiled faintly, glanced at Deng Lingzi and Mo Xuan next to her, and said: "Senior Deng Lingzi and your master are good friends. You must not lose your courtesy. I'm leaving first!"
After saying that, he stomped straight up from the stone cliff, carrying a purple shadow, and disappeared in front of Zhao Hao's eyes.
"Amazing!"
Zhao Hao couldn't help but admire softly.
Deng Lingzi smiled and stroked his beard and said: "Yanran's martial arts skills are no less than your master's. She can protect you and you will be safe!"
Hearing this, Zhao Hao nodded slightly, and then said with a puzzled look:
"Senior Deng Lingzi, Hao is confused about something. Since you and my master are good friends, why did my master join Qin as an official while you became Qin's enemy?"
"The Qin State ruled the country by law. The Mohists had a deep understanding of Legalism, and its disadvantages were very obvious. The rule of law requires speed, and speed is harsh. It is easy to make the country rich and the people poor. Qin will prosper in a short time and destroy the country in a long time. The way of the world The vicissitudes of life lead to the same goal through different paths. I don’t recognize the Legalist approach to governing the country, and I don’t think the Mohist School can govern the country. I only punish evil and eradicate the strong and promote the way of justice!”
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Hao fell into silence for an instant. The wise ancients were indeed extraordinary. They had already been like a mirror in their hearts, but the world was stupid and thought that they only cared about selfishness and disregarded righteousness.
The evening breeze ruffled his robes, and the setting sun shone on the old man's rickety body, making him even more immortal.
After a long while, Deng Lingzi waved his hand towards Mo Xuan, and then said to Zhao Hao: "Can I have a look at the Young Master's "Tiangong Kaiwu"?"
So direct?
Zhao Hao was stunned for a moment, then his thoughts changed.
Since the other party came to look for me specifically and had no ill intentions towards me, plus what my senior sister had explained before, it seemed unjustifiable for me to be on guard against the other party.
After thinking about it, Zhao Hao took out the "Tiangong Kaiwu" in his arms and handed it to Deng Lingzi.
Deng Lingzi took "Tiangong Kaiwu" and looked at it carefully. For a moment, he was amazed and couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect there to be such a wonderful book in the world."
"There are hundreds of schools of thought today, and the younger generations only have a superficial understanding of it. Only Guiguzi's lineage is unfathomable. Could it be that this book was written by a descendant of Guiguzi?"
"Although I also recognize the magic of Guiguzi's lineage, this book was not written by a descendant of Guiguzi, but was originally created by Song Yingxing."
"Song Yingxing?"
Deng Lingzhi looked at Zhao Hao in surprise: "Is there such a profound person in the world?"
Zhao Hao smiled and nodded; "Confucius advocated teaching students in accordance with their aptitude. The students he taught were all of the same taste, and the students taught by Guiguzi were all different. All the learning in the world is nothing more than sexual interest, ambition, and talent. As long as you understand it thoroughly, even an unknown person can become a sage! "
"So, this Song Yingxing is a nobody?"
"No, no!"
Zhao Hao shook his head and said with a smile: "There is indeed no such person as Song Yingxing in the world, but there is Song Yingxing's learning. Does senior Deng Lingzi feel familiar with it after watching "Tiangong Kaiwu"?"
"I do feel a little familiar. Not only the Mohist skills are included, but also the public loser skills. There are also other skills, which seem to be all-encompassing."
As he spoke, Deng Lingzi couldn't help but be fascinated: "Song Yingxing is the most talented person in the world!"
"hehe."
Zhao Hao smiled noncommittally and said, "Senior, why did you change your mind and accept my conditions?"
"My lifelong pursuit is nothing more than gratification and grudges, but how much can I control everything in the world? When I was young, I traveled around the world without worries. Now I can't let my disciples get into trouble. And the young master is not the king of Qin. Why don't I believe in him? Return?"
"Senior is thoughtful and considerate, and Hao has benefited a lot from it."
Zhao Hao smiled and suddenly thought of something, and asked curiously: "I wonder if senior knows anything about Lian Nu."
"Since Mo Xuan promised the young master, how could I break my promise? Mo Yu, bring the things up!"
After hearing what Deng Lingzi said, Mo Yu led two disciples, each holding a repeating crossbow, to Zhao Hao.
But I heard Deng Lingzi introduce: "The one on the left is a five-company light crossbow, and the one on the right is a ten-company heavy crossbow. You can test fire one or two."
"Why are these repeating crossbows divided into light crossbows and heavy crossbows?"
Zhao Hao took the fifth consecutive light crossbow and asked curiously.
Deng Lingzi smiled and said: "The light crossbow is mainly used for cavalry, while the heavy crossbow is used for infantry. The light crossbow is made of wooden arrow shafts and bronze arrow clusters and can shoot about a hundred steps. The heavy crossbow uses bronze crossbow arrows and can shoot eighty steps." About a step."
"In terms of accuracy, the light crossbow is slightly better, and the heavy crossbow is more lethal."
"Okay, let me try first!"
Zhao Hao nodded, then picked up the light crossbow in his hand, installed the crossbow arrows according to Professor Mo Yu's method, and started shooting.
"Swish swish!"
Just for a moment, the five arrows in the crossbow made a sound of piercing the air one after another.
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Hao picked up the heavy crossbow with ten arrows loaded and pulled the trigger again.
Although the recoil of the heavy crossbow was greater than that of the light crossbow, and Zhao Hao needed two arms to stabilize the crossbow, the power of the heavy crossbow still surprised him:
"Senior, great talent, these ten-shot crossbows are much more powerful than five-shot crossbows. If there are enough, we can shoot the enemy into a sieve with a hail of arrows!"
The Mini rifle has not yet been produced. In the cold weapon era, the ten-repeating crossbow was as powerful as an automatic rifle.
It's the perfect choice to transition to a Mini rifle.
Seeing Zhao Hao's excitement, Deng Lingzi looked calm: "Sir, according to the Mo family's original intention, I should not give this kind of murderous weapon to Da Qin. However, I hope that you will use it to protect the people of the world and beat down foreign races!"
"Senior, don't worry. Hao will have to deal with the Huns and Yue people in the future. This lethal weapon can target their cavalry. Later I will ask people from the military factory to produce it on a large scale, and the West Branch of the Academy of Sciences will be in charge!"
As Zhao Hao spoke, he stroked the serial crossbow in his hand and couldn't put it down.
Deng Lingzi glanced at him and then at Mo Yu. The latter nodded but did not leave. He lowered his head and took out a dark object from behind and handed it to Zhao Hao.
"What is this? A strange object?"
Zhao Hao looked at the thing in Mo Yu's hand with confusion on his face. The dark, round thing was as big as a basketball.
"A strange object? Don't underestimate it. This thing is more powerful than a heavy crossbow!"
"How can this thing be more powerful than a heavy crossbow? Could it be a bomb?"
Obviously, Zhao Hao's familiarity with bombs was beyond Mo Yu's ability to understand.
But I heard Deng Lingzi laugh again and said: "Young Master has performed miracles many times. My disciples brought back some residues from the place where Master performed his miracles. I studied for several months and figured out the ingredients inside, including charcoal powder, flames." Nitre powder, stone sulfur powder"
"This thing is the Huo Lei Zi that I imitated."
"this"
Zhao Hao was stunned, thinking that this is okay? I really underestimated the wisdom of the ancients!
However, the ingredients are easy to figure out, but the proportions are not. He is now a little curious about how powerful this imitation bomb is.
However, at this moment, there was a strange noise in the forest, accompanied by footsteps.
"Sir, be careful, there is something in the woods!"
Mo Xuan rushed from a distance and stood in front of Zhao Hao.
"It's okay, don't panic."
Zhao Hao smiled and patted her back, feeling moved for a while, then turned to look at Deng Lingzi.
Deng Lingzi was seen looking into the depths of the forest with indifferent eyes, standing still.
Suddenly, black shadows rushed out from the woods, making "humming and chirping" sounds, and headed straight towards Zhao Hao and others in the direction of the stone cliff.
At this time, Mo Xuan finally saw the true identity of those black figures. They turned out to be a group of black wild boars.
"Master, move quickly, these beasts are frightened and are in danger!"
"Don't panic, Mo Xuan, it's just a bunch of wild boars, just let them try the fire thunder in my hand!"
Before Zhao Hao could speak, Mo Yu excitedly raised the black ball in his hand.
"Hello"
Zhao Hao was planning to dissuade Mo Yu from acting impulsively. After all, the black pigs were very fast and the power of the bomb explosion had limited coverage. But Mo Yu ignored him at all and directly lit the black ball and threw it towards the wild boars.
"Boom!"
There was a loud noise and countless firelights, shooting towards the black pigs.
"this"
Zhao Hao's eyes widened with disbelief on his face.
This is crazy!
What the hell?
Not a bomb, but an incendiary bomb? !
I saw the group of wild boars, instantly covered by the flowing fire caused by the explosion. They screamed and screamed as they burned. No matter how they rolled, the flames on their bodies only increased.
"Senior, this."
Zhao Hao swallowed subconsciously and turned to look at Deng Lingzi with difficulty.
"I know that Young Master's bomb is not like this, but I have thought about it thousands of times and still can't figure out the recipe for Young Master's bomb. I simply added some black oil into it. I didn't expect the effect to be so good!"
Deng Lingzi stroked his beard and smiled.
Zhao Hao was slightly startled: "I dare to ask senior, what is black oil?"
"It's an oily substance that flows out of the stone. It's flammable but hard to destroy!"
"You, you mean stone, oil?"
"That's understandable!"
Deng Lingzi smiled and nodded.
Zhao Hao was surprised, thinking that this old guy is really not simple, he actually discovered oil.
However, if you think about it carefully, although oil in this era has not been utilized on a large scale, it is not that no one uses it.
But the creation of this incendiary bomb really refreshed Zhao Hao's understanding of ancient craftsmen.
"How about it? Is the power of my master's fire thunder son okay?"
Mo Yu looked at the wild boar that was lingering on the ground and the pork was burned until the aroma of the meat was fragrant, and he looked at Zhao Hao with a proud look on his face.
Zhao Hao smiled and did not answer his words. He turned to Mo Xuan and said, "Go and see if those wild boars are any better. Make some good dishes for our master tonight!"
Mo Xuan: "."
Thanks to Bing Xin Falling Rain for the 15,000 reward. To be honest, I accepted it with tears, because I couldn’t even get a third of the big prize there. However, I still want to thank you, boss, for adding an update at the end of the month. In the future, book friends over there, please don’t give me big rewards. (ω)
