Chapter 51: Fierce Fire Oil (Three Watches)
Zhang You opened his eyes and found that he was lying on his bed, with a sweet fragrance between his lips and teeth, which should be the taste of some kind of ecstasy. Rubbing his aching head, he looked around and found that Zhang Jialin was sitting on a small bench, lying at the end of the bed, her pretty face was facing her direction, her breathing was steady, and she slept very sweetly.
The surroundings were quiet, thinking of Mrs. Zhang's words that day, Zhang You couldn't help but look at Zhang Jialin a few more times, only to see that her hair bun was a little scattered, her eyelashes were black and long, like two small curtains covering the lower eyelids, her moist red lips were slightly upturned, and the corners of her lips showed two small pits, which looked cute and playful.
A beauty is definitely a beauty, but if it is left in the afterlife, at such an age, at most she has just entered high school.
Zhang You smiled bitterly, got out of bed lightly, and found clothes to cover Zhang Jialin gently. He wanted to carry her to the bed, but Xu had been in Daming for a long time, and his thoughts had also been affected.
Do you really want to find someone to propose?
The question that he had already figured out was suddenly hesitant again.
There was a faint sound of talking outside the door, for fear of alarming Zhang Jialin, he hurriedly greeted him, and when he saw that it was his mother and Mrs. Zhang, he hurriedly raised his lips and sighed, and then lowered his voice and said: "Jialin is probably tired, lying at the end of the bed and falling asleep, if you have anything to say, let's go out and talk!" ”
The second daughter had nothing to do, and when she went out, Mrs. Zhang went to inform everyone of the news that Zhang You had woken up, and Zhang You and Li Shuo didn't look for any more places, so they sat down on the stone bench under the peach tree.
"You'er, you've been gone for so many days, who are you treating at once?" Li Shuo asked, without waiting for Zhang You to answer, and then said: "You don't know, if it weren't for Qian Wugua who got up early and found you at the gate, he wouldn't have been taken away again." ”
"Mother, you're all worried, aren't you? Those people are not actually bad people, they are quite mysterious, and the children don't know what they do. Zhang You said, secretly thinking: "The woman in purple is old-fashioned, she must be waiting to see me get back by the money gourd before leaving, otherwise I don't care, the gold is ......" Thinking of this, he hurriedly asked: "By the way, mother, have you ever found gold and silver on the child, that person promised to give me twenty taels of gold as a diagnosis fee, and he won't take advantage of my unconscious to repay the debt, right?" ”
Li Shuo glanced at him and said, "I know that I am worried about money, haven't you noticed that Jia Lin has lost a lot of weight because she is worried about you?" ”
"Ah, yes, that ......" Zhang You scratched his head in embarrassment: "Isn't the child afraid of being busy in vain?" Besides, even if you all want me to marry Jia Lin and enter the door, a girl like a golden branch and a jade leaf, without money, can't you come and suffer with the child, right? ”
"So, would you like to do the same?" Li Shuo asked in surprise, glanced around as he spoke, didn't see anyone else, and lowered his voice and said: "Jia Lin's mother said that you pretended to be stupid, I'm afraid you can't look down on Jia Lin, my mother is still trying to persuade you, it's best if you figure it out yourself...... Don't think you're pretentious if you save the life of the guard master, the Zhang family is not thin on our mother and son, Jia Lin is even more infatuated with you, people, I learned that Entu repaid ......"
"Okay, okay, mother, the child knows, in fact, my aunt misunderstood me, and I didn't say I didn't like Jia Lin. I just think she's a little too young......"
"Sixteen, still young? When my mother is her age, I have you! ”
Li Shuo rushed out, Zhang You's heart moved, and he couldn't help but think of the Shougong sand he saw on his mother's arm that time, but he didn't show it on his face, and said: "Of course, it's no problem to have a child at this age, but mother, don't forget, children are studying medicine, according to the medical books, unless there are special people, most women have to wait until they are eighteen years old to be considered truly mature." ”
"Phew, even if what you say makes sense, why don't you have to wait until Jia Lin is eighteen years old to marry her? People are the daughter of the dignified garrison house, do you really think you won't marry? ”
"Gotta get it, it's all up to you, right? We seem to be saying that the gold is coming, how did it get here? ”
"I know that the gold, I gave it, it was twenty taels, and I put it up for my mother, which is always satisfying, right?"
Zhang You smiled, the woman in purple was still trustworthy.
After chatting a few more words, Mrs. Zhang, Guo Zaoqing, Li Quanfu and others walked over from the backyard, shouting and asking for warmth, and telling about farewell, but there is no need to describe it all.
"Zicheng, you come over with the teacher, the teacher has something to tell you."
At a certain moment, Guo Zaoqing greeted Zhang You and walked to the backyard first. Seeing this, Zhang You was slightly stunned and hurriedly followed.
There are a few more large vats at the south wall of the backyard, covered with lids, and surrounded by rags, and the package is sturdy, I don't know what is inside.
"...... that?" Zhang You asked.
Guo Zaoqing said with a smile: "You kid is quite knowledgeable, go and see, see if you recognize it, what is it?" ”
Zhang You was interested, and quickly walked over to uncover a probe to take a look, and saw that there were more than half a tank of black liquid objects inside, and the pungent smell came to his face, he was slightly stunned, and turned back with joy: "Sir, if the student's expectations are good, this thing should be the fierce fire oil recorded in the book, right?" ”
Fierce fire oil is a kind of incendiary material used as a weapon of fire in ancient Chinese warfare, and the period when it played its greatest role was the Five Dynasties and the Song, Jin, Liao, and Yuan dynasties, and it was during this period that oil was called "fierce fire oil". The history of Champa (present-day an ancient kingdom in south-central Vietnam) paid tribute to the Chinese emperor several times during this period. Prior to this period, firefighting in Chinese wars was mostly based on firewood and oil, which was the most basic means of arson. The power of fierce fire oil is much greater, and it has the characteristics of water pouring fire to get hotter and hotter, which is more suitable for fire attack.
Zhang You is familiar with history, so naturally there will be no "mistake" called oil.
Guo Zaoqing couldn't help but stretch out his thumb: "You really recognized it, you really didn't expect it to be a teacher." As he spoke, he said, "However, if you can guess the origin of this thing, you will really admire you as a teacher." ”
It is rare that Guo Zaoqing still has a childish side, Zhang You can't help but be aroused, he remembers where he seems to have seen it, Li Chengliang once discovered oil in the Northeast, but it doesn't seem to be taken seriously.
With a smile, he said, "This is what you said, sir, students guess, it shouldn't have been from Li Dashuai, the general soldier of Liaodong, right?" ”
"How did you guess?" Guo Zaoqing was really stunned by Zhang You, looking at his expression, it was like looking at a demon.
Zhang You rolled his eyes and said: "Simple, this thing must have been found by Mr. to make a big Kong Ming lantern, and the student didn't hear you talk about it before leaving, so I think it was only found in the past two days." With such several large vats, it is impossible to transport them over too long distances, and it is most likely from the Jiliao Governor's Palace. Where did Liang Junmen come from? Except that Li Shuai is Qi Shuai, Mr. Qi Shuai's words are estimated not to be asked, so it can only be Li Shuai. ”
After that, he let out a long breath, good guy, you can't pretend to be forced in the future, and after a big circle, he finally came back.
Guo Zaoqing looked at Zhang You blankly, for a long time, sighed lightly, and said: "Originally, I was worried that you would be in crisis after entering Beijing, but now it seems that you are so wise and close to a demon, I am afraid that Zhang Whale will not be able to hurt you." ”
