When Yun Ye was a child, he used soil to cause trouble for ants. The ants who were running on the plain suddenly discovered that there was a high mountain in front of them. When they planned to take a detour, they found that they were surrounded by high mountains, so they had to try their best to climb the mountains.
In front of God, humans and ants are very similar, but God is using snow as soil to create obstacles for everyone. The emperor has burned his sins to heaven and vowed to change his past, but God is like a
Like a naive naughty boy, he continued to sprinkle the heavy snow.
The road that has been dug will be covered with snow again in just one night. The heavy snowfall in the 16th year of Zhenguan has been falling for six consecutive days and there is still no end in sight.
The bells of Jianfu Temple rang all night long, and the bell tower and drum tower would ring again every hour. The whole of Chang'an and Chengdu fell into inexplicable fear.
Yun Ye couldn't sleep anymore. It had never snowed heavily in Chang'an for such a long time. God seemed to want to make up for the snow that had not fallen all winter. The snow in the yard was already waist deep. This was a catastrophe.
, it is definitely a catastrophe. Even the well-prepared Yunjiazhuangzi will be affected by the disaster, let alone those who live in thatched houses and burn firewood.
I rode on Wangcai and drove all the way to Yushan. Yesterday, the road had been dug and paved for thirty miles. Gouzi's mother and wife had been taken to his home by the veterans. Gouzi was in Yushan and he wouldn't be able to get there for a while.
.
Today we should be able to open the road to Yunjiazhuangzi. After a while along the snow road, we reached the end of the road. Everything in our eyes was a vast expanse of white. Yun Ye couldn't even tell where he had arrived.
Wei Zheng was really supervising the work of digging the road. At this time, Wei Zheng could not see the slightest trace of the demeanor of a famous minister. His face was livid, and he kept giving orders to the officials in a stiff and stern tone.
Fortunately, Yushan blocked some wind and snow. The disaster here was not as serious as Yun Ye imagined. Seeing that he was about to reach the archway, Yun Ye put on a pair of braided rattan shoes. The huge bottom area could ensure that Yun Ye floated on the snow.
If Yun Ye hadn't brought out the snow shoes, Li Er might have started to go crazy and kill people.
Hundreds of messengers wore this kind of shoes and crawled desperately into the vast white snow toward their goals. Four days ago, Li Er could calmly issue orders. Today, his two eyes have turned into
It was blood red and exuded a cold aura, like a ferocious beast ready to eat people at any time.
When Yun Ye returned home, at dusk of the Xin Yue day, Ling Dang was already crying to death, because there were rumors that Chang'an had been buried in heavy snow. The old woman breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her grandson back, and returned to her Buddhist temple.
I pray to Buddha here and hope the heavy snow will stop soon.
I didn't have time to comfort Xin Yue and the others, so I went to look under the shed in the backyard, and my heart was relieved. The hot air balloon has been completed, and the huge bamboo basket has been installed in place. If Yun Ye can't come back today, Xiao
Wu planned to force the hot air balloon to fly to the sky and follow the wind to visit Chang'an City.
Wei Zheng, with disheveled hair, also entered Yun's house. When he saw the huge hot air balloon, he said to Yun Ye with a gloomy face: "Can it fly?"
"Heavy snowy days are very dangerous. If there is snow on the hot air balloon, it may not be able to fly, or it may fall off halfway." Yun Ye was not sure at all. He had only seen a hot air balloon in his life and had never ridden one before.
Let alone driving, if you fly now, you are very likely to die.
Duan Hong, who was all wet, walked in from the Moon Gate, and said to Yun Ye with red eyes: "Your Majesty has an order, the hot air balloon must take off!" This sentence did not allow anyone to disobey it.
He understands Li Er's thoughts. The heavy snow has trapped Chang'an into an isolated city. At this time, he desperately wants to know what is going on outside. A closed space is the easiest place for people to feel helpless, not to mention someone like Li Er who always pretends to be the world.
Now that the heavy snow has separated him from the world, how can he settle down?
There is no way to retreat, and there is no way to retreat. At this time, Li Er has no emotions. Not to mention Yun Ye, even Li Chengqian will order to be forcibly lifted into the air. If he wants to comfort the soldiers and civilians in Chang'an City, the hot air balloon will fly no matter what.
stand up.
Li Chengqian and Li Tai also rushed over. At this time, Yun Ye was already heating the hot air balloon. The kerosene tank spurted out blazing flames. A dozen strong men took turns shaking the fan blades and pouring hot air into the balloon.
, the deflated ball sac gradually expanded, and in the end, it actually stood upright. If it weren't for the eight ropes that firmly fixed it to the ground, it would have flown away long ago.
When the hot ball deflated, you couldn't tell how big it was. When it swelled up, Li Tai realized how huge it was. It was eight feet tall, and it was swaying wildly in the wind. The wide field seemed
They can no longer accommodate the huge body.
Yun Ye jumped into the rattan basket and ordered the generals to throw small bags of sand into the rattan basket. He began to adjust the size of the flame. The tough dragon skin rope formed a mesh to hold the ball bag, and kept it firmly.
If you brush it on the rattan basket, your life will depend on whether the ropes are strong or not.!
As the sandbags were thrown into the rattan basket, Yun Ye ordered to untie the ropes one by one until all the ropes were untied and only one safety rope was left. Yun Ye opened the rotary valve to the maximum, and the copper crane mouth
The flame outlet immediately made a loud noise, and the flames rose two feet in an instant.
Looking at the kerosene jar above his head, Yun Ye could only smile bitterly. He hoped that the sealing mats made of mashed beef tendons and pressed fish glue would work, otherwise he would be burned to death even if he was not thrown to death.
.
The crane's mouth valve was the best one selected out of hundreds of finished products. Although it had been polished by the craftsmen without any gaps, Yun Ye specially poured kerosene into it for inspection and left it for a whole day to see if there was any leakage.
Not bad, no leakage was found. This was the only thing Yun Ye was satisfied with. The superb craftsmanship of Datang craftsmen gave him hope that he could survive.
Looking at the blazing flames, Yun Ye also muttered in his heart that he had no plans to come up. He originally planned to find a few people who were not afraid of death to go up first and pass the test before he went up. He had no intention of dedicating himself to science to such an extent.
This damn heavy snow meant that I had no time to train cannon fodder, so I had no choice but to do it myself.
Xinyue and the others cried even more loudly, because her husband had said before that this thing might need to be dropped seventeen or eighteen times before it could be officially sat on. Who knew that in the first test, her husband would sit on it?
How can this happen?
Li Tai suddenly rushed into the bamboo basket and helped Yun Ye organize the various ropes on the hot air balloon, straightened them out and put them under his feet. Yun Ye lowered his head and whispered to him: "Get out, it's very dangerous. I
Just one bad luck will suffice."
"Why should you be the only one to enjoy such a thing that is recorded in history? Hey, my descendants of the Li family are not short of courage. If everything goes wrong, there will be a prince buried with you. Just be satisfied."
Duan Hong refused to let them come over in front of Xin Yue. Wang Cai screamed and held the rope in his mouth to pull Yun Ye back. Yun Ye stroked his head a few times and then calmed down. His big wet eyes kept blinking.
Blinking.
"Qingque, throw the sandbags outside, and our brothers will go to the sky!"
"Hahaha, great, this is going to heaven!" Li Tai seemed to have lost his mind, and his laughter was no longer right.
Hundreds of people were holding on to the rope tightly. Even Li Chengqian and Wei Zheng couldn't help but step forward to help. Yun Ye once again twisted the crane's mouth valve to the maximum, listening to the roar of the flamethrower, the hot air balloon
It slowly rose from the front of everyone's eyes and gradually crossed the roof of Yun's house. After Yun Ye found that the lift was very smooth, he pulled out the pin on the rope. Without the tie, the hot air balloon immediately flew quickly.
As he ascended into the air, Yun Ye heard Li Tai's shouts coming from behind him. Who knows what he shouted.
I have been paying attention to the snow on the hot air balloon, but I found that I was overthinking it, and the snow fell off on its own along the smooth silk arc-shaped spherical surface. The wind at low altitude is very small, so if you want to fly, you have to go higher.
Li Tai had no objection to moving up a few feet. According to him, it was already dozens of feet high, enough to fall him to death. Should he fly to a height of a hundred feet and fall to death, or fly to a height of dozens of feet and fall to death?
Death, he would rather choose a hundred feet.
Li Tai kept throwing the sandbags down, and he didn't consider whether one or two people would be killed. All the princes in the sky were risking their lives, and the unlucky people on the ground deserved to be killed.
Xin Yue, who was on the ground, had forgotten to cry. Her husband really flew up. That day, Rimu even jumped twice. When she came back to her senses and found that the atmosphere was not right, she quickly put on a sad face again. It was already too late. Xin Yue was caught in the public eye.
He was slapped twice hard.
When Wang Cai saw Yun Ye sitting on a big ball out of the yard, he neighed and ran out of the house to chase the hot air balloon. This reminded everyone that Li Chengqian found a horse and rode on it and ran out with him. Xin Yue
He desperately urged the servants to hitch the carriage, got on the carriage and ran along the newly dug snow path towards Chang'an.
Yun Ye looked around with a telescope, and everywhere was white, but one good thing was that he found that the snow at high altitude seemed to have become smaller, and eight dark strips divided the plain area into a chessboard shape. This is what is called
As Ba Shui circled Chang'an, he also discovered that it was not only Chang'an, Lantian, and Miyuan who were digging roads, but they were also digging roads to Chang'an desperately. Those people suddenly saw huge colorful hot air balloons appearing in the sky, and there seemed to be some commotion.
But just for a while, they seemed to be digging more vigorously. Some inexplicable guys even shot arrows at the hot air balloon.
The wind was still very light, and the hot air balloon flew very slowly, almost like an oxcart. Li Tai kept encouraging Yun Ye to fly above the clouds to have a look. This guy is a madman. If he flies into the dark clouds, even if he is lucky enough to come out, he will not be able to fly.
