Chapter 343 Little Genius He Guang
Chapter 343 Little Genius He Guang
He Guang's research can be described as... testing poison on himself.
In the beginning, he discovered that if the properties of wine were in conflict with each other, the vat would easily explode. Later, he no longer limited himself to wine.
Unscrupulous liquor merchants... oh no, inventor He Guang, who is dedicated to innovating by mixing various raw materials, began to experiment with liquids that also possess violent spiritual power, such as medicinal liquids and fruit juices.
Next came the experiment with solid-based infused liquors.
After his master went into seclusion, he began high-intensity experiments, so intense that he didn't want to go out to find food and would just eat some raw materials when he was hungry.
Then.....
Some things can kill you if you eat them indiscriminately.
Fortunately, He Guang didn't have much money. He was just a Qi Refining stage apprentice in the wine cellar, with little salary, and he couldn't get much credit in the name of the wine cellar.
When Zhong Ming arrived, he was swaying unsteadily, whether due to malnutrition from the continuous experiments over the past few days or from food poisoning and diarrhea for several days.
“He Guang, your master asked me to look after you for a few days.”
If Danpo Fairy was a strict teacher whom He Guang was always afraid of being scolded, then Zhong Ming was a strategic ally he had invented.
Isn't this letting the monkeys see what's going on in Taoyuan?
He Guang's eyes lit up immediately. He laboriously climbed to the edge of the wine vat and beckoned Zhong Ming to come in together.
Zhong Ming lightly leaped into the vat and slid down the side of the vat.
He thought it was empty, but it was filled with wine jars of all sizes, forcing him to stop halfway through his slide, afraid that he would sit on a wine jar and break it.
A wine vat of the highest caliber should not be afraid of breaking, but He Guang's wine vat cannot be guaranteed to be safe.
Inside the giant wine vat, which was several stories high, He Guang stacked smaller wine vats to create a "fortress." Zhong Ming carefully stepped on the edge of the vat, afraid of touching something that would explode in his face.
"Oh, and put the lid on."
Zhong Ming casually put the lid on the wine jar, and several poorly made lighting stones around it emitted a faint green light, making the atmosphere inside the jar resemble a "forest miasma-themed picnic".
He Guang didn't see anything wrong with it at all and greeted them warmly: "Come on, come on, this vat will be ready soon."
"Soon? Soon what?"
"It's about to explode."
Zhong Ming: ? ? ?
He Guang, with his butt sticking out, hid behind a "wall" made of several stacked wine jars. These wine jars were all high-grade magic artifacts, and the "bases" were even top-grade magic artifacts, which were extremely sturdy.
"You good-for-nothing, you really went and blew it up..." Zhong Ming hadn't finished speaking when a dull "thud" was heard from ahead.
The wine vat in front of him was cracking inch by inch. Zhong Ming looked regretful and was about to step forward when suddenly, He Guang jumped up, grabbed Zhong Ming's body and pressed him down.
"Get down."
"boom!!!"
A deafening roar, comparable to a thunderclap, exploded before Zhong Ming's eyes. Fragments of the flying sword and wine splashed from the cracks in the walls of the wine vat, followed by raging flames. The flames were even green, illuminating the two men's faces with a green glow.
Most of the wine flowed down the wall of the vat and was then ignited by the flames, forming a wall of fire.
A few scattered sparks landed on the two of them. Zhong Ming patted them a few times, but found that the fire was extremely difficult to extinguish. It was very strange that the flames were very cold, but their destructive power was amazing. With one pat, it actually exploded, blowing a big hole in the newly bought Taoist robe and revealing the tortoise shell inside.
"He Guang, what are you doing!"
Zhong Ming roared angrily, only to find that the kid looked confused but also a little excited. He obviously hadn't expected it to catch fire, but wasn't that even better?
The flame burned out, and the oxygen provided by the oxygen stone sustained the alcohol until it was completely burned, but the temperature inside the vat remained almost unchanged.
"He Guang, what exactly did you do!"
Zhong Ming suddenly understood why he had to put the lid on such a large wine vat when he came in. Was he trying to make bombs here?
With the magical power of this giant wine vat, it can largely isolate the plant from the external environment, sealing off the sound of the explosion and the flames, so as not to affect Fairy Danpo's seclusion.
"Do you know this is playing with your life? If something happens, you'll be all alone and no one will find you even if you die here."
"Cough cough, Cuihong... Brother, don't be in a hurry. I bought this for such a small amount of money. It's good enough if it works. You think it can kill people? You're really overestimating the seller's conscience."
He Guang was not flustered at all. What he wanted to do most now was to find a master craftsman who could carve jade slips and ask him to help carve all these methods into the jade slips.
"Tell me honestly, how did you do this?"
"Hehe, I used the Red Sun Lotus Seeds as an ingredient to make Ice Jade Wine brewed with the North Sea Ice Spring."
Zhong Ming couldn't understand these technical terms, but He Guang, like a scientist who had just successfully conducted an experiment, began to explain them with great enthusiasm.
"I bought the worst Crimson Sun Lotus Seeds, but the content of Yang attribute spiritual energy inside is still extremely high. Its characteristics are that the outer layer is hard, while the inside of the lotus seed is fragile and has an amazing spiritual energy content. And this North Sea Ice Spring can slowly erode the outer shell."
“Hmm,” Zhong Ming stroked his chin, “So, you made a…time bomb?”
"Yes, yes, that's it!" He Guang stared excitedly into Zhong Ming's eyes. "Once the outer shell is completely eroded, the extremely yin spiritual power of the ice spring will come into contact with the extremely yang lotus seed core, causing an extremely strong spiritual power storm that will instantly shatter the wine vat."
After He Guang finished speaking, he blinked, as if he couldn't wait to urge Zhong Ming to continue asking questions.
"Then what was the cause of the subsequent explosion?"
"The wonder of this vat of wine is... hehe, if I seal the vat completely, the first explosion won't damage the internal structure of the lotus seeds, because the lotus seeds have a protective mechanism when subjected to enormous pressure. Their structure makes them highly resistant to high pressure, truly amazing life... until the vat shatters and the internal water pressure is released, the essence inside the lotus seeds will be released and undergo a second violent reaction with the wine."
Hearing this, Zhong Ming had to admit that He Guang was a genius.
It's really hard to learn good things, but it's easy to learn bad things in no time, and one can quickly and decisively embark on the path of bad behavior.
"So the fire that followed..."
"Perhaps the grade of the Crimson Sun Lotus Seed is still too high, and the Yin spiritual energy in the ice spring cannot keep up, causing the scorching spiritual energy to ignite the wine, but the cold spiritual energy to suppress the temperature."
This is easy to understand. The lotus seeds don't flow out like a liquid; instead, they break into tiny particles. Each particle ignites the liquor and reacts violently with it until it is completely consumed.
In this way, each flame point is an explosive collision of spiritual energy.
