ninth junior sister

Chapter 223

Zimo put down the brush in his hand and put it on the brush and inkstone, he raised his eyes and looked at Ling Xiaoruo, and replied: "What bet?"

Look at that confident look, could she really find a recipe for rain?
"If I can make the sky rain smoothly, how about you helping me escape from Moxi?" Ling Xiaoruo raised his eyebrows after speaking, waiting for Zimo's reply.

After thinking for a while with downcast eyes, Zimo replied, "Okay."

If it really does rain, what's the point of betting with her once?It should be noted that developing a method for rainfall has been his long-cherished wish for many years.

Seeing that he agreed to the gamble, Ling Xiaoruo immediately slapped the desk with a slap, and the "slap" sound shook the ink-filled writing brush off the inkstone in an instant, drawing a long line on the white rice paper. Black marks.

"As long as you do what I say, I will keep the sky raining!"

The confident words penetrated through the layers of palaces and reached the top of the sky. It seemed that the birds in the forest that were about to return to their nests forgot to go home, and instead began to stop on the branches and listen to the evening song. .

After this day, Ling Xiaoruo has been in a busy state. Apart from ordering people to buy things according to her needs, she also ran to the sandy field where she was sunk that day.Because Ling Xiaoruo didn't tell Zimo the specific reason, therefore, Zimo was one of the first two in the preparation process, and had no idea what kind of tricks she was going to play.However, since he has already made a bet, he will carry it out to the end.

Time flies by, and five days have passed in a blink of an eye.

On this day, the edge of the small sandy land west of Zihe, the capital of Moxi, was very lively and crowded with people.Because on this day, Ling Xiao Ruo wants to let the sky rain down here.

Almost all the people in the imperial city mobilized and completely blocked the road to the sandy land.

Next to the octagonal well in the sand is a bright yellow seat, which is the dragon chair used by the emperor of Moxi, and beside the dragon chair is another white wooden chair, on which is the high priest of Moxi. search.

He sat on the chair and looked around for a while. When he saw those huge iron pots on the sand, his eyes couldn't help jumping, thinking about the use of these iron pots.Could it be possible to use an iron pot to play the role of rainfall?

Ling Xiaoruo was wrapped in a red sari today. She stood on the sand like a fiery red epiphyllum, blooming freely between the sky and the earth. She looked up at the sky. Five days ago, she was escorted to the When I was here, I found that the clouds here are thick and dense, and they are very low. If judged according to meteorology, it will rain sooner or later. However, after waiting for so many days, there is still no rain. Seeing signs of rain, so she can only catalyze it, she is afraid that there will be no clouds if she waits any longer, so if she wants to rain, it may really be a fantasy!

There are several iron pots on the high sandy ground, firewood is piled under the iron pots, and there are many soldiers standing beside the iron pots. These soldiers are carefully selected by Zimo and have deep internal strength.

One of the soldiers was made up by Ziping. She stood beside Zimo. When Zimo turned his eyes, he realized that the man was actually made up by her. Once he found out, Zimo immediately turned handsome, and he He said in a low voice, "I remember that I didn't choose you, why are you here? Leave quickly, this is not a joke."

When Ziping heard this, she turned her eyes to look at the emperor and the high priest sitting by the octagonal well. She raised her lips and said with a smile: "No matter what the future path is, I will go through the wind and rain with you."

How could she give up such an opportunity to stand side by side with him?If he wins, she will win. If he fails, she will suffer with him!
"You..." After Ziping finished speaking, Zimo was a little speechless.

Ziping smiled at him and said, "Fourth senior brother, you should save some energy now, you will use a lot of internal energy later."

After all, Ziping no longer paid attention to Zimo, but secretly adjusted her inner breath.

Hearing this, Zimo's slender eyebrows were slightly tightened. He stared at Ziping, who was serious about it, and then stopped talking.

At this time, there was a thick layer of clouds pressing down on the sky, the cloud layer was extremely large and wide, and beside the cloud layer were some floating clouds, wisps of them, like cotton wool flying up.

After Ling Xiaoruo watched the sky, he realized that it was the best time, so he waved his hand and ordered: "Light it up!"

After an order, the firewood was lit, and a raging fire ignited on the sand.

Standing beside the iron pot, Ling Xiao felt like being in a sea of ​​flames, his whole body was soaked in sweat.

The iron pot was filled with various kinds of water. These waters were used water gathered and distributed in these days. Because there was a shortage of water in Moxi, it was natural that the well water that people drank could not be used to boil it.

The iron pan was quickly scalded, and a layer of white mist had already formed on the edge. Seeing this, Ling Xiaoruo said to Zimo: "You can use your internal force, remember to aim at the clouds." After finishing speaking, he turned his head Said to the other person beside him: "You can launch the salt powder, and launch it at that cloud."

Zimo nodded when he heard the words, and then sank into his dantian. After running the internal force of the whole body for a week, he wrapped the water vapor rising from the iron pot with internal force, and pushed towards the cloud layer. The surrounding soldiers Also imitating Zimo's appearance, the internal force accumulated in the body concentrated to push the water vapor towards the clouds.

Next to Ling Xiaoruo was a cannon barrel. There was a cannonball in the cannon barrel. There was some gunpowder in the cannonball. Of course, the most important ingredient was salt powder. When the salt powder was fired into the clouds, it would increase the size of the water droplets. The density of the water increases the weight of the water droplets, and when the weight reaches the point where the air cannot hold it, it will fall down and become raindrops.

After Ling Xiaoruo's order, the soldiers beside him lit the fuse, and the fuse crackled and burned, and after a roar and explosion, a shell shot up into the sky and went straight into the sky.

"Pound--" After hearing only the sound of a cannon, the powdered salt exploded in the clouds.

After the cannonball exploded, Ling Xiaoruo's heart sank slowly. She looked back at the soldiers who were still working tirelessly to transport water vapor into the clouds. Now, it's up to people to make things happen, and it's up to her to do it. It's all done, now it's just a matter of God's reaction.

When Emperor Moxi saw this series of actions, he was obviously worried. He turned his eyes and asked Baili Xun: "Master Baili, do you think it will rain today?"

Baili Xun narrowed his eyes. What he saw today was something he had never seen in his life. He didn't know if it would rain. Could it be that in this world, besides praying for rain and offering sacrifices, there is such a kind of rain? Does the method make the sky rain?
