The sun is shining brightly and there are no clouds in the sky. The midday sun shines on the Shenwei Priest University, like the gaze of the main god. The golden statue of the sun hummingbird stands in the center, shining brightly; the curtain of the god holding lightning stands high, fluttering in the wind.
After all, Sunway University is a religious university, and the symbols of the Lord God can be seen everywhere. Bright murals are carved on the masonry walls, telling the miracles and legends of the Lord God. And in the vast campus, there are also two lofty places of the Lord God.
Altar. One part is the gold color of the Sun God, and the other part is the red color of the God of War.
At this moment, dozens of priests and craftsmen were carefully working on the altar. Hundreds of warriors wearing bronze armor maintained order in the field. Hundreds of priest apprentices were waiting solemnly under the altar.
Elaine stood on tiptoes in the crowd and looked at the two altars. There were several heavy wooden boxes stacked on the golden altar, with soil spilling from the wooden boxes. The boxes contained more than ten sealed bamboo tubes. The red altar
There is a strange and huge round paper ball on the altar, about six meters in diameter. The bottom of the paper ball cannot be seen clearly, and it seems to have some extra arrangements. Next to it is a fire that has chicken feet tied up and screams "cuckoo".
chicken.
"The items on these altars are full of mysterious meanings, like some kind of ritual sacrifice."
Elaine secretly thought to herself, and her eyes finally found the Death Chief. The Chief wore solid platinum armor, strode up to the golden altar, and was talking to the divine priest on the altar.
"God bless you! Are you ready?"
Shulot asked solemnly.
"God bless you! Your Majesty, everything is ready!"
Divine Priest Nelko was a little excited. He was originally a senior salt worker in Prepecha, but was later selected by Divine Enlightenment to become a gunpowder craftsman in the kingdom, and was promoted to a first-level Divine Priest. He prayed devoutly to the Lord God.
, and saluted the king.
"Praise the Lord God! Praise Your Majesty! According to your instructions, we use tough old bamboo as a release container. We first add a sufficient amount of gunpowder to the bamboo tube and leave one end open. And in the gunpowder, there is a
Many flammable small paper balls are filled with the same gunpowder and powder mixed with different minerals. As long as the open fuse is lit, the gunpowder will spray out the paper balls and then ignite, the grace of the Lord God will be formed, in various colors.
Fireworks! Holy Fireworks!!..."
As Nelko spoke, he pointed to the mark on the bottom of the bamboo tube.
"Your Majesty, you see, the color of the fireworks is marked on the bottom of the bamboo tube, and the added minerals are also recorded!"
"very good!"
Shulot smiled and praised. He took out a bamboo tube firework and inspected it carefully for a moment. It was not much different from the homemade fireworks in his memory.
Fireworks generally use a secondary layered gunpowder structure. The primary structure is to launch gunpowder, which requires higher explosive power to send the simple secondary structure into the sky. The secondary structure is colored gunpowder, which is mixed with various hair colors.
agent. The secondary structure of earthen fireworks is relatively simple. If it is a high-altitude fireworks of later generations, the secondary structure also has a special fuse, detonating powder, gunpowder and light beads.
Of course, for the king, simplified homemade fireworks are enough.
After checking it, Shulot nodded with satisfaction. He personally picked up a fireworks bamboo tube and gave instructions to Nelko next to him.
"ignition!"
After a moment of silence, hundreds of priests and apprentices stared intently at the king and craftsmen on the golden altar. Nelko lit the fuse, and the king raised the bamboo tube and pointed it at the sky. Then, there was a sharp explosion that shocked the ears of the spectators.
By the side!
"Boom~bang~pah!"
On the continent of America, under the awe-inspiring eyes of everyone, the first brilliant fireworks rose more than 20 meters into the sky, and then burst into bloom! This was a bunch of red fireworks, just like red cicada flowers, suddenly blooming in the sky
It appeared before everyone's eyes, and then it disappeared in an instant, leaving only the faint smell of fireworks in the wind!
"Ah! Praise the Lord God!"
Low sounds of praise rang out from the mouths of the priests and apprentices who were watching, and then turned into neat and high-pitched prayers.
"God bless the kingdom and praise your majesty!"
Shulot opened his eyes wide and silently stared at the fireworks in the sky. Many long-lasting memories came to mind, and the thoughts came back a thousand times, making people dream. The scenes of the New Year are like frozen photos, and they are like distant memories.
An unattainable fantasy.
The king lowered his eyes and calmed down his turbulent emotions. It had been a long, long time since he felt this way, and he was even a little moved.
Nelko on the altar bowed his head and prayed for a moment, then reported back to the king.
"Your Majesty, the red fireworks are filled with lapis lazuli powder."
"Very good!"
Shulot nodded slightly, and all his emotions disappeared. The composition of lapis lazuli is strontium sulfate crystal, and the strontium salt will emit red light when it burns. This is the flame reaction mentioned in high school chemistry. Then, he took another
He set up a bamboo fireworks tube marked with purple and gave the command in a deep voice.
"ignition!"
"Boom~bang~pah!"
A few breaths later, a purple firework bloomed in the sky above, almost blending into the deep sky. The priests and apprentices who were watching once again exclaimed, shouting "The grace of the Lord God"! The fireworks during the day were already so strange, and when it arrived,
How gorgeous and colorful is it at night?
"Your Majesty, the purple fireworks are made with plant ash."
Plant ashes are potassium salts, and when burned, the flame color reacts with a light purple color. The king paused, and then picked up the green-marked fireworks bamboo tube.
"ignition!"
Accompanied by ear-splitting explosions, green fireworks bloomed in the sky, contrasting with the sky-blue background, and with a touch of blue. In the legend of the Tekos Mountains, the green flames are the passage to the land of the dead.
Able to communicate with the terrible god of death.
Elaine stared blankly at the strange flames of different colors, her heart filled with awe of the gods and uncontrollable expectations.
"The strange flame is the power of the gods! How does the mysterious Death Chief master it?"
The king stared at the light blue flames and whispered before Nelko could speak.
"Green and bluish fireworks, copper powder is added here."
"Exactly! His Majesty's Divine Enlightenment!"
Shulot stretched out his hand and touched the next bamboo pipe with a smile on his face.
"Yellow mark, sodium salt."
The king's eyes flashed, and a mantra sounded inexplicably. He murmured in a low voice, and Nelko listened intently, but it was a strange word like a mantra.
"Purple red lithium, brick red calcium, magenta strontium, yellow-green barium, sodium yellow, copper green, potassium rubidium purple..."
After setting off more than ten bamboo tube fireworks, Shulot stopped with satisfaction. He looked at the young faces under the altar that were shocked, fearful, pious and yearning, and smiled slightly. Then, the king spoke loudly,
It tells the principles of nature that have been prepared for a long time.
"The Lord God is supreme and great. He formulates the laws of all things and makes the heaven and earth move. He never violates them. The principles of nature are the supreme principles of the Lord God! All things in the heaven and earth have laws and laws. Only by exploring the principles of nature can we master the supreme principles.
of great power!”
"The creations of the Divine Apocalypse are all derived from the principles of nature. Today, I will use strange creations to tell you the secrets of the gods behind the world!"
