Dao fruit.

"You mean that Qiu Yan only spent half a day making this... stove?"

Chen Jing stood in the middle, looking at the thing in front of him, which consisted of a leather bag and a few suspenders, with curiosity on his face.

Two days ago, Chen Jing went to Yuanning Mansion with Zhen Zhizuo and others, and took Qiu Yan to Dongdu, but only found out when he got there that Qiu Yan had already left for Rongzhou to congratulate his friend and left a letter To Zhen Zhizuo.

Later, Zhen Zhizuo sent Zhang Yu and others to inquire, and soon learned of Qiu Yan's itinerary, and followed him all the way to Xingtai Town.

As soon as they arrived in the town, they sensed an undercurrent from the people coming and going, but they were just passers-by, of course there was no need to delve into it, they just went to inquire about Qiu Yan's news, but after a little inquiring, they learned Almost all the people in the town expressed their dissatisfaction with what Qiu Yan had done before, and the crowd was excited.

After spending a lot of effort, Chen Jing and others found the blacksmith shop of the Liu family, and saw the kitchen stove that everyone talked about.

Zhen Zhizuo and Lin Jue stood beside Chen Jing, and they were also looking at the device in the room.

"Exactly, before Qiu Yan left, he still left this picture..." Beside them, Liu Xin said with an apologetic smile on his face, and handed over a piece of paper in his hand.

The paper has been torn, but the writing is still clear.

Chen Jing took it over and took a look, his eyes swept over it, his complexion suddenly changed, he was amazed: "Good words, good words, no wonder even that kid Qi Jiulian admits he is not as good as him," sighed a few words, his Attention was drawn to the structural diagram above, "Is this the category of mechanism art? But it doesn't look complicated. Do you use the method of blowing wind to heat the fire? Brother, let's take a look..."

Chen Jing handed over the paper in his hand.

Zhen Zhizuo took it.After looking at it for a while, he finally couldn't help but sigh: "This method is very ingenious. I heard that the manufacturing bureau on the outskirts of the Eastern Capital cost tens of millions of taels to build a blast furnace. Water-fried steel, compared to this stove, is quite inferior..."

Lin Jue also came up to watch and nodded in agreement.

Chen Jing said with a smile: "It's more than that, blowing wind can heat up. Someone mentioned this method before. Before I became a teacher, I went to Xingjing's Military Equipment Academy with my father. There is also a blowing device there, but it is used in a convenient way." outside the law."

Knowing what Chen Jing said, Zhen Zhizuo shook his head and said, "I have also seen the blast furnace of Xingjing Military Equipment Academy. It is more clever and labor-saving than Qiu Yan's method, and it is suitable for large-scale weapon manufacturing."

Chen Jing didn't argue, but said: "Brother, Qiu Yan said that the important thing about this method is that it can be used by ordinary people, and it doesn't need to cost much. You don't have to be restrained by strange forces and chaos. You can heat and burn it by yourself. It can be said that the design is ingenious, I don't know how Qiu Yan thought of it."

Liu Xin is waiting on the side.Hearing this, he hurriedly said: "Qiu Yan didn't create this stove, he just got the teaching from the gods."

Lin Jue, who had been silent all this time, frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Taught by God? Did Qiu Yan tell you?"

"No, no." Hearing this question without any emotion, Liu Xin was inexplicably terrified, waved his hands quickly, and explained, "Then Qiu Sheng didn't say that, and he left soon after he left the stove. , As for the theory of divine grant, it was dreamed by villains!"

"It's not what Qiu Yan said, but what you dreamed about yourself, how can you be sure?" Zhen Zhizuo also shook his head, thinking it was absurd.

Liu Xin said: "This dream is not only made by the villain, but the other people who were present that day also dreamed of the same scene. If it wasn't for the manifestation of the gods, how could this be so?"

Chen Jing said: "The gods think they are superior to others, and they have to restrict human nature in everything. How can they grant such skills? Are you not afraid of enlightening the wisdom of the people? Besides, those gods are all superstitious about supernatural power, and they use magical powers to solve everything. How can you know the tricks?"

After hearing this, Zhen Zhizuo said in a deep voice, "Speak carefully, don't forget the teachings of the sages."

"I know, if you don't talk, it's strange. The sages are also afraid that if they talk too much, they will leave something to talk about. After all, what we are doing is to compete with Shinto for jobs. We just do it and don't talk about it." Chen Jing grinned.

Seeing his appearance, Zhen Zhizuo had no choice but to shake his head helplessly, and asked Liu Xin: "Qiu Yan made a stove bag with you, it can help people make fire, and it is beneficial to the way of smelting. Why do people in the town But so hostile to him?"

Liu Xin said with a bitter face: "It's not because I offended the gods. How can we mortals compete with the gods? As soon as Qiu Sheng left, Huo Zheng condemned us, which made the fire temperature of other houses rise slowly and lowered. Pig iron quality."

Hearing this, Chen Jing laughed again: "This is a stupid god. Didn't he force the people in the town to choose stoves by doing this? He is so humane, and he is really angry to be led by this kind of ramming! "

Liu Xin immediately became flustered: "My lord, don't talk nonsense. There are gods standing three feet above your head. Now, no one in every household dares to use this stove. My house just hasn't had time to dismantle it." There is still a sense of awe.

"Okay, okay, don't worry, I'm the one who criticizes the gods, why should you worry?" Chen Jing raised his hand and threw a piece of broken silver, "This is the agreed silver, take it."

Liu Xin quickly caught Yin Liang and thanked him repeatedly.

Zhen Zhizuo handed back the somewhat damaged paper in his hand, and motioned Liu Xin to put it away.

Unexpectedly, Liu Xin said: "Young masters, if you need it, you can take this picture away. It's useless to keep it. Almost everyone in the town has seen it, and the stove is not complicated. This thing It's of no value at all."

"What did you say?" Chen Jing's eyes widened, he looked Liu Xin up and down, and finally laughed, he pointed at Liu Dao, "You groveled for a few taels of silver, but for words worth dozens of taels Disdainful. Not optimistic about the extraordinary significance of the stove, but value the gods, really have eyes but no eyes, have a treasure mountain without knowing it."

"You... what did you say?" Liu Xin was originally embarrassed by the look, but after hearing this, his eyes widened, he swallowed, and stared at the words, "Ten taels?"

"If it weren't for the creases, the price would have to be raised a little bit more," Chen Jing shook his head and pointed, "Of course, if Qiu Yan died suddenly now, then this word would be more valuable. After a few years, it might be worth more." How about Baijin? Do you want it or not? If you don’t want it, we will take it away!”

"give me back!"

As soon as Liu Xin heard that the calligraphy was so valuable, Liu Xin couldn't calm down, so he went forward to snatch it back. He still owed a lot of gambling debts. If the calligraphy and painting were really so valuable, wouldn't they be settled in one go? , and can make a lot of money?

It is better to believe that there is, not to believe that it is not!

Unexpectedly, a strong wind suddenly came from the side, and Chen Jing slapped it with his palm.Infuriating in his hands, swarming with qi and blood, bursting out with power.The entire blacksmith shop was shocked!

boom!

This mighty palm slapped on Liu Xin's body, and immediately his heart was broken, and he was sweating like rain, but he didn't hurt anyone, only a gust of wind spread through his body and submerged under his feet.

"Eh..." Even so, Liu Xin was shaken by this power and couldn't help himself.

"Chen Jing!" Seeing this, Zhen Zhizuo couldn't help saying. "Did you forget the teacher's teaching again? Don't forget to be respectful!"

"Senior brother. Human desire is an example. Only by revealing it can you remember it." Chen Jing took the piece of paper from Zhen Zhizuo's hand, waved it in front of Liu Xin, and said to the latter, "Qiu Yan's words, let you It's really sad that this kind of person holds it."

As he spoke, he handed over the paper.

Liu Xin caught it subconsciously, not daring to say a word.

At this time, Lin Jue suddenly said: "This picture, besides us, have you shown it to other foreigners?"

Liu Xin was still in shock at this time, after hearing the question, he instinctively replied: "Yes, Xiangzheng once sent people to copy the copy, and a few scholars came here yesterday to make the copy."

After saying this, it took him a long time before he recovered from the trembling. When he looked again, Zhen Zhizuo and others had already left, but Liu Xin couldn't care about other things for a long time. He looked at a calligraphy and painting in his hand and grinned. Laughing, planning to go to Fucheng tomorrow and find a pawnshop to exchange for real money.

suddenly!

Shake!

The whole shop shook, crackling, the ground cracked, the walls collapsed, and the smoke billowed. Liu Xin screamed strangely, took the paper in his hand, and ran out in a hurry. He staggered and fell to the ground. Turning his head, he happened to see his own shop. The scene of collapse.

………………

"If you don't restrain yourself, you will be kicked out by the teacher sooner or later."

On the way, Zhen Zhizuo warned Chen Jing earnestly, but the latter just laughed, as if he didn't take it to heart.

In the next few days, they went north all the way, but they were always one step slower than Qiu Yan. Everywhere they went, Qiu Yan would definitely leave them first.

Not enough, along the way, whenever Qiu Yan passed through towns and villages, more or less things and incidents would be left behind.

"This Qiu Yan is not simple. He went all the way north, leaving something behind every time he passed, and he even helped people solve the case."

On the carriage, Chen Jing sighed from time to time, holding a few small items in his hand, all collected on the road, related to Qiu Yan.

Beside, Lin Jue nodded, then lowered his voice and said, "It's just that the Kitchen God doesn't seem to be simple, and has a certain connection with Qiu Yan, but wherever Qiu Yan passes by, there are traces of this god, but the name of this god It’s very strange. This god deliberately enters the dream and leaves a name in order to expand the popularity of the people, which seems to be at odds with the practice of heaven.”

Zhen Zhizuo shook his head, and took out a note from his bosom: "You guys are wrong, the Kitchen God's matter is not limited to this road, Qiu Yan just happened to be at the right time, and this god took advantage of it."

Chen Jing raised his eyebrows: "How do you say that, brother?"

Zhen Zhizuo spread out the note in his hand: "This is the news from Feige this morning, you can check it out yourself."

Chen Jing and Lin Jue looked at it according to the words, and then their expressions changed.

"Huh? Over the past few days, the Kitchen God has left traces and appeared in so many cities and towns? Could it be..."

Chen Jing and Lin Jue looked at each other and uttered a word at the same time——

"Derived from the legal domain?"
