MTL - A Complete Explanation of the Negative Textbooks of the Imperial Examination-Chapter 66 celestial

"You still won't say it?"

Feng Butcher fell silent. After a long time, he opened his mouth and said dryly: "The immortals choose disciples, I am a mere ordinary citizen, how can I know..."

"Brother!" Before Butcher Feng finished speaking, the door slammed open from the outside. Holding a pot of tea in her hand, Feng Jiao stood outside the door and listened for a long time: "They are in a mess, and they do those shameful deeds. Isn't our family miserable enough? Why are you still talking for them!"

"Jiaojiao, shut up!" Butcher Feng hurriedly stood up, pulled Feng Jiao over, stuck his head out and looked around in the yard. After repeatedly confirming that there was really no one around, he took a heavy breath, turned around and slapped Feng Jiao's forehead and said, "You, you still keep your mouth shut, in case someone overhears, who else will be there? save you?"

Feng Jiao was not convinced: "They are not good things in the first place, why don't you let me talk about it? Besides..." Feng Jiao glanced at Xiao Jingduo very quickly, "Besides, Xiao Xiancheng is not here Is it here..."

"Don't be rude." Butcher Feng pulled his sister over and said to Xiao Jingduo, "My sister has been spoiled by the family, and she can't speak her mind. Don't take it to heart, Xiao Xian. Cheng cleared me of the murder charge, and I, Feng Xiang, are very grateful, I will always remember this kindness, Feng Xiang, and if there is a chance in the future, I will definitely repay Xiao Xian Cheng."

"But..." Feng Jiao wanted to say more, but Feng Tuhu blocked her eyes back. Butcher Feng threatened his younger sister: "Our Feng family has always held the most kindness, you are not allowed to say any more, you can't be a person who repays revenge for kindness."

When the brothers and sisters were arguing, Xiao Jingduo kept watching silently, and when the two finally quarreled, Xiao Jingduo tapped the table lightly with his knuckles and said, "Repaying kindness and revenge? You are afraid that you will be too far away. If you tell me what you teach, will it hurt me?"

Feng Butcher did not speak, but his expression clearly meant this.

Xiao Jingduo couldn't help laughing: "I don't even know what to say... Although I'm not talented, but since I was appointed by the emperor to come to Jinjiang County, I can be a parent. You know. Say whatever you want, even if I am unfortunate enough to lose, I won't be burdened by them. I am in Chang'an, and I have some connections."

Feng Jiao was overjoyed when she heard this, and even Butcher Feng asked tentatively, "Really?"

"Really."

Feng Butcher immediately clapped his hands: "This is really good!" These common people have lived in Jinjiang County for generations. In their eyes, the magistrate is the biggest official, and many people don't know it all their lives. What is the seniority and seniority in the officialdom? I don't know how the world outside Jinjiang County works, but Butcher Feng knows that Chang'an is the most amazing place. Having connections in the capital was simply beyond Feng Butcher's imagination. At this time, he believed that perhaps the county magistrate Xiao could really solve the county's cancer—toolijiao.

"The matter is critical, I don't have time to spend with you, and now, I'll start from the beginning."

"This is too far from teaching, I'm afraid it has to start from two years ago..."

Two years ago, in what is now known as the Miracle Lake, a man named Qi Ling was influenced by the immortal and soared. Of course, this is Tailijiao's statement. According to witnesses, they were fishing by the lake when they suddenly saw a smoke coming from the woods opposite the lake. The fog was extremely thick, and it was obviously not a natural lake. Instead, the fog rolled and turned quickly like a cloud, and there was a faint sound of thunder in the thick fog. The fisherman was very curious, he followed the smoke to the other side of the lake to find out what happened, and he came across Qi Ling halfway. The fisherman asked Qi Ling if he had seen the miracle just now. Qi Ling paused and admitted that the miracle just came because of him. He took a nap by the lake and was accidentally enlightened by a fairy, and learned the magic of the fairy. .

This incident spread all over Jinjiang County, a remote and isolated county. Every day, many people came to visit Qiling. Later, Qiling simply founded a church, called Tailijiao. Every once in a while, immortal methods will be taught in the teaching. With the gimmick of Xianshu, more and more people in Taili Sect, and in the end even the government was disturbed. The county magistrate Chen did not believe it and ordered Qi Ling to be arrested. But after that, Qi Ling once again summoned the clouds and mist in public and performed the floating technique. These immortal methods greatly shocked the county magistrate, and also made the other cultists more convinced.

Not long after, Qi Ling, in the name of choosing disciples, selected young and young girls with wisdom roots among the people, and took them with him to seek immortals and asked. The people naturally flocked to it, eagerly eager for their own children to be selected. Most of the people who were selected for the first time were girls, and many of them were well-known beauties in the neighborhood. A few months later, Taili Jiao selected disciples again, and this time more and more girls were selected. Gradually, the people couldn't take it anymore. Everyone was ecstatic in the first election, full of hope in the second, but in the third and fourth, many people were unwilling to participate in the election. However, Qi Ling is an Immortal Master, how can he allow mortals to disobey his decision, so the selection process is held as usual, and the selected woman has no right to refuse.

At this time, the attitude of the people of Jinjiang County has changed from eagerness to avoidance at the beginning, especially when people find that women who are valued by the Sun family and other wealthy families will mostly appear in the selection of students In the list, even if they spend money to escape the chosen disciples, they will disappear inexplicably after a long time. The common people are not fools. Under such circumstances, how can it not be seen that Tailijiao and the Sun family have colluded and forcibly occupied the women of the good family under the guise of Xunxian.

"...Although we found out about this, it was too late. At this time, Tailijiao responded, how can we ordinary people fight against Tailijiao? Not to mention the immortals of Tailijiao. The teacher is also proficient in immortal arts, so there is nothing we can do except eliminate wealth and avoid disasters!" Feng Butcher said with a sigh.

"They are so rampant, why don't you report to the officials?"

"Reporting an official?" Butcher Feng sneered, "In the beginning, when we reported an official, the county magistrate Chen felt that it was not a big deal, so he didn't bother to intervene. Later, he himself became the immortal teacher of Taili Jiao. Who else would dare to seek their own death?”

Xiao Jingduo can probably guess the mind of the county magistrate Chen. The first choice was ordinary women, which had nothing to do with the magistrate Chen, so the magistrate Chen never intervened; He Haoshen's appetite is getting bigger and bigger. Although the county magistrate Chen felt it was inappropriate, he expected that these people would not dare to provoke him, so he still did not take action. In the end, when the county magistrate Chen's own daughter was targeted by these people, There is no one to help him.

The malignant tumor of Tailijiao has grown out of control.

Even the famous Feng family was targeted. The Feng family did not dare to contend against the teaching of too far away, so they had to spend money to keep their blood. Unlike the Feng family, the county magistrate Chen was an official after all. He rejected Qi Ling furiously at the time, and scolded everyone at Taili Sect, and then left Taili Sect angrily.

However, Magistrate Chen did not make a clean break with Taili Jiao as he wished. May passed, and Chen Ci passed the month of apprenticeship unharmed, so people thought that this matter was over. After all, Taili Jiao and the local squires are still people no matter how arrogant they are. How dare they challenge the magistrate of Chen. . However, in July, on a rare sunny day, Chen Ci went out to buy things, and then never came back.

This incident naturally angered the county magistrate Chen. He kept sending people to search outside, and even forcefully searched the places where Tailijiao was located. The eyeliner, it is conceivable that the actions of the county magistrate Chen were fruitless.

For this reason, the county magistrate Chen suffered a great blow, and he was devastated, and relied on drunkenness to numb himself every day.

"At first I thought that the county magistrate Chen was indulging in the pain of bereavement and could not extricate himself from the pain of bereavement. He drank every day and made himself drunk every day. But in August, the county magistrate Chen Suddenly a message came to me, saying that they would discuss with me about choosing disciples." Feng Butcher said.

Xiao Jingduo thought thoughtfully: "So, the county magistrate Chen is only ignorant on the surface, but is actually secretly investigating the disappearance?"

"It should be like this. At that time, I was annoyed by those flies, so as soon as the county magistrate Chen handed me a message, I took it. Later, I went back and forth with the county magistrate a few times. , After getting to know each other, the county magistrate Chen invited me to go to the county office in the middle of the night to discuss the matter. But I don't know what happened, after I went, the county magistrate Chen was already dead."

"Where did Xu leak the rumor..." Xiao Jingduo could only sigh at this, "It's better to tolerate rape."

Feng Butcher also fell silent, Feng Jiao sat under Feng Butcher and sighed worriedly.

"Xiao County Chancellor", Feng Jiao couldn't help but ask, "Chen County Magistrate has been in Jinjiang County for many years and has not done this, so he took his own life for this. .Xiao Xiancheng, you have just arrived, will you..."

"I probably know what's going on." Xiao Jingduo nodded and smiled at Feng Jiao, "Thank you, everything will be fine."

It's getting late, and if you stay any longer, there will be a curfew. Xiao Jingduo got up to leave, and the Feng brothers and sisters kept sending people outside the door before they stopped.

Hearing the voice, Qiu Ju quickly came out to greet him: "Lang Jun, why are you coming back now?"

Xiao Jingduo murmured vaguely: "Something was delayed outside."

Qiu Ju was still talking, although Xiao Jingduo was sitting in the room, his eyes were fixed on the candle, and he obviously did not hear what Qiu Ju said.

"Qiu Ju?"

"Huh?"

"Do you know where there are hidden places nearby?"

"I know several places about this. However, Da Langjun, why are you asking this?"

When the candlelight shone on Xiao Jingduo's face, he was a little confused.

"I saw a fragment of a scroll in the Imperial College, and there were quite a few strange things in it. I didn't take it seriously before, but now I'm suddenly curious."

Qiu Ju understood what she didn't understand, and nodded: "Ah, okay, I'll prepare..."

Qiu Ju is indeed a person who hangs out in the house all year round, and within a few days, she has already figured out the surrounding environment. It just so happened that Xiao Jingduo was taking a shower that day, so he took Xiao Lin and others out of the city to play in the name of outing.

Now, several people named "Play" are squatting by the pond, watching Xiao Jingduo boil sugar on the fire. Qiu Ju is really puzzled: "Lang Jun, you run so far just to make frosting sugar?"

They set up a carriage and hid anointing candles and other items on the carriage. After finding a suitable place, Xiao Jingduo ordered someone to set up the pot stand, while he stirred the frosting sugar on the pot, so that the sugar slowly melted into a paste.

Qiu Ju couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but say, "Lang Jun, I'm good at cooking sugar, so let me do it!"

Xiao Jingduo raised his hand to stop her: "No, this is very dangerous, and it requires a lot of heat, so I'll do it myself."

Although Qiu Ju didn't know the dangers of boiling sugar, but listening to Xiao Jingduo said this, it was still remarkable, Xiao Lin immediately said: "Langjun, let me come."

Unfortunately, I don't know why, but I immediately presented what Xiao Jingduo asked for.

Xiao Jingduo carefully mixed the saltpeter into the syrup, stirring while reminding: "Go far away, it may explode in a while."

As soon as Xiao Jingduo finished speaking, he immediately felt that something was wrong. When the water calmed down, Xiao Jingduo said, "It's not easy. Pick up the pot and continue."

Xiao Jingduo is the most persevering person. As long as he wants to do something, no matter how many times he has to do it, he is willing to give up. Xiao Jingduo kept adjusting the heat and the proportions. After frying the pan several times, he finally got a pot of sugar paste that was never blown up.

Qiu Ju and the others kept their hearts high before they put it down, Xiao Jingduo kept moving in his hand, and quickly freed up one hand and said, "Wooden handle."

."

This time, Xiao Jingduo said, these people knew what might happen. Qiu Ju and Xi Qi immediately stepped back, and even Xiao Lin gave in two steps back.

Huo Zhezi hit the top of the torch with precision, and the torch covered with the mixture of syrup and saltpeter was immediately ignited, and thick white smoke burst out.

Qiu Ju blocked her ears in fear, but strangely, there was no explosion for a long time. Qiu Ju opened her eyes and found that the torches were still smoking white smoke, but they did not explode. It is strange to say that the torch was not on fire, but the energy continued to emit white smoke. The smoke was extremely thick, and the line of sight was almost impenetrable.

Xiao Lin looked at Xiao Jingduo in disbelief: "Lang Jun, this..."

, "The torch situation is not right, spread it out!"

The author has something to say: Small Theater:

Congratulations to Xiao Jingduo for getting a [Smoke Grenade Recipe] kit, the side effect of activating the kit is probably an explosion...

Second shift at 6:30~

Ancient and simple smoke bomb recipe, saltpeter, sugar, add a small amount of water (be careful frying)

The main component of saltpeter is potassium nitrate. When potassium nitrate and sugar are mixed, a redox reaction will occur. a response coefficient?

Friendly reminder: The author has not done this experiment, all the reaction phenomena are obtained by watching the video, don't try, please, don't try...

Finally, a passage about the county magistrate in the text was inspired by the American Jewish Memorial:

At first they (Nazis) killed the Communist Party, I didn't say anything because I was not a Communist Party; later they killed Jews, I didn't say anything because I was not a Jew; then they killed Catholics, I didn't say anything Still silent because I'm not Catholic; finally, when they started against me, there was no one to speak for me...
