Original God: The Eternal Lord of Bliss
Chapter 63 Gunpowder
On the way back, Zhu Yuncheng felt as if he had forgotten something, but he did not continue to recall it. The most important thing now was the production of black gunpowder.
Anyway, the conditions are ripe now.
With this thought in mind, Zhu Yuncheng came to the Han family iron smelting shop.
"Hello...Long live the Human King!"
The iron smelting shop occupied a huge area, and the people selling ironware outside were so scared when they saw Zhu Yuncheng coming that they bowed to him directly.
"Prepare a separate room for me, and send me a few iron pots, some pyrite and charcoal, a sieve and a hammer." Zhu Yuncheng ordered.
After receiving the order, the man immediately turned around and went in. After a while, Han Wu came out with big strides: "Long live the human king."
"Junior Brother Cambrian, are you ready for what I want?" Zhu Yuncheng asked directly without any intention of talking.
Han Wu was stunned for a moment. He thought Zhu Yuncheng came here to check the manufacturing of armor and weapons. Seeing Zhu Yuncheng like this, he immediately responded: "Long live the human king, it's ready."
As he spoke, he took Zhu Yuncheng to an empty room where the things Zhu Yuncheng needed were already laid out.
"Strange, what does the Human King want these for?" Hanwu started to take action as soon as he saw Zhu Yuncheng come into the room. He first lit the fire, opened the ventilation window, put the pyrite into the iron pot and placed it on the fire, then took out a piece of white crystal from his arms, placed it on the table, and picked up the short-handled hammer.
"This is, explosive stone?!" When Hanwu saw the crystal, his face changed instantly and he shouted, "Long live the Human King!" Then he rushed directly towards Zhu Yuncheng.
"Huh?" Zhu Yuncheng turned his head and saw the rushing Cambrian. He dodged and asked, "What are you doing?"
Han Wu fell flat on his face, then quickly got up: "Long live the Human King, that's explosive rock! It will explode!"
"Of course I know this is explosive stone, but for it to explode, it needs at least two conditions: high temperature contact and violent impact." Zhu Yuncheng explained, "Like this, it won't explode if you just crush it gently."
While explaining, Zhu Yuncheng crushed the blasting stone with the hammer in his hand. Hanwu was stunned when he saw this scene. His father had told him when he was a child that the white crystals in Tianheng Mountain were called blasting stone. This kind of ore was very dangerous and prone to explosion, so he had to stay away from it as soon as possible.
But now seeing that the Human King was crushed with a hammer without any problem, he was stunned and couldn't help but doubt his father's words.
At this moment, a pungent smell came over him, causing him to cough uncontrollably: "What, ahem, what is this?"
"It's the pyrite that has melted." Zhu Yuncheng looked at the boiler on the fire. The pyrite there had already begun to liquefy.
Pyrite is rich in sulfur, and when the ore is heated to above 120°, the sulfur in the ore will melt.
After filtering out impurities with a sieve, sulfur can be obtained. The purity of the sulfur obtained in this way is not high. If carbon disulfide is added, the sulfur can be further purified.
It’s a pity that Zhu Yuncheng, a liberal arts student, doesn’t know the production process of carbon disulfide. It’s also a pity that there are no volcanoes in the Liyue area and there is no way to extract high-purity sulfur. In other words, in the continent of Teyvat, except for the Fire Nation, there are no volcanoes in other areas.
After the sulfur cools and solidifies, it is ground into powder. Finally, the charcoal is ground into powder and mixed together in the ratio of one nitre, two sulfur and three charcoals and gathered into a small pile. In this way, the original black powder is successfully made.
It’s time to witness the miracle!
Zhu Yuncheng took a piece of wood from the fire, broke off a piece and lit it with fire, thought again, put Gan Yu who was lying on his head aside, and then put the burning wood into the black gunpowder.
The moment it came into contact with the flame, the pile of black gunpowder immediately burst into dazzling light, and countless sparks exploded along with the rising white smoke, making crackling sounds.
"Long live the Human King!" When Hanwu saw this scene, he thought that the powder had exploded. He roared and pounced towards Zhu Yuncheng again.
This time Zhu Yuncheng still reacted and dodged to the side, allowing the other party to pounce on him again: "You are so grown up, but you are still shouting and yelling like a child!"
After Zhu Yuncheng taught him a lesson, he saw Xiao Ganyu sitting up and clapping non-stop: "Stars, beautiful." He then went forward to hug Xiao Ganyu and put her back on his head: "Junior sister, this is nothing. In a few years, I will show you what fireworks are!"
"Fireworks, are they pretty?"
"nice!"
"It looks good~" Ganyu smiled and clapped her hands.
Han Wu got up, still frightened by the scene just now: "Long live the king, what was that?"
"This is called gunpowder." Zhu Yuncheng said to Hanwu, "Let your people mine more saltpeter, pyrite, and charcoal. These should also be made more. This king will need them in great ways."
"But, Long Live the Human King, saltpeter is very dangerous." Cambrian hesitated.
"Then go there wearing armor and knock slowly. Don't use too much force and don't let open flames get close to you. Forget it, I'll take you and let me demonstrate it to you on the spot." Zhu Yuncheng said after thinking about it.
Even high-purity saltpeter will not explode as long as it does not come into contact with open flames or is not violently struck or rubbed.
When Zhu Yuncheng took Hanbrun to demonstrate, it was already noon when they returned to the Human King's Palace. Little Ganyu became restless when he was hungry. He lay on his head and bit his hair, bit his fingers while holding him in his arms, and bit wood aside. Zhu Yuncheng had to ask the Kitchen God to cook while holding Ganyu's waist with both hands.
"Long live the Human King."
At this time, Ning Kuan came over from outside and saluted: "I heard that a mine in Tianheng Mountain exploded this morning."
He saw Zhu Yuncheng holding Gan Yu's waist with both hands, and cursed in his heart: "Have you any shame? This is Fengtian Palace, where you usually discuss things with us. Now you are holding Senior Sister Gan Yu and letting her pee here?"
"That's right." Zhu Yuncheng said while holding little Ganyu, "Because Chi's people didn't know what explosive rocks were, they approached them with open flames, causing the explosion."
"Exploding rocks!" Ning Kuan was startled and asked tentatively, "Are all those people dead?"
"Yeah, all dead." Zhu Yuncheng answered casually, and then suddenly remembered that he seemed to have forgotten something when he went to the iron shop. Now that Ning Kuan mentioned it, he reacted instantly.
Ning Kuan swallowed his saliva and said, "Long live the Human King. What should we do? All the Chi people who came to my Guiliji to exchange Mora died this time. What if no one comes to Qingce Village to exchange next year? And you said that Qingce Village should bring gold."
"There's no rush. Anyway, the food that Qingce Village brings every year is not enough for us to fill Guiliji's teeth." Zhu Yuncheng thought about it and found that Guiliji didn't lack the little food from Qingce Village at this stage, and there was no need to worry about the accountability of Chihui from Qingce Village.
According to Ning Kuan's narration, the relationship between Qingce Zhuang Chi and humans is similar to the relationship between the people of Heguan Island and thunderbirds.
The thunderbird doesn't care about the humans on Heguan Island, and the Chi doesn't care about the humans living around it. The main reason why the humans from Qingce Village live there is that those low-level monsters without intelligence are afraid of the pressure emanating from the Chi and dare not approach.
However, compared with the thunderbird, Chi is more concerned about those intelligent monsters, such as True Lord Fu Lu Wu Jiang and the Snake King.
After hearing this, Ning Kuan felt relieved.
