White birch bark is very flexible after soaking, and it is also flammable, so it is the best choice. As for mud, it is used to fill the gaps left between the rolled bark to prevent air from entering, and it will be burned before it rises into the air.
"Exploded" in advance.
First, Bai Begonia made two inner and outer tubes from tree bark, and put a small amount of black powder into the inner tube.
Only one hole is left, and a strip of cloth is put in to make a twist, which is the fuse, and the rest of the hole is completely closed.
The second cylinder was placed outside the first cylinder. Among the refined chemicals, calcium was the most, so Haitang made the calcium powder into small beads, wrapped them in thin bark, and placed them in the second cylinder.
There is a row inside.
In this way, when the inner cylinder is burned out, the outer cylinder will rise, and red fireworks will appear, and spread along the surrounding circle at the same time. Bai Haitang expected its effect and gave it a name: National Color and Heavenly Fragrance Red Peony.
At the end of the day, I put in the fireworks white begonias of various colors and tried different shapes. I just waited for the experiment at night. If there is no problem, I will do more the next day.
On the night when Bai Haitang was kidnapped, the waiters at Zhengyang Buzhuang saw that Bai Haitang had been rescued, but they still had no idea who the man in beggar's clothes was.
If you get too close, you are afraid of being discovered. If you stay far away, you can only see vague shadows. At most, you can distinguish between men and women. Later, I saw Bai Haitang and Lamei continuing to walk forward.
I wanted to follow them, but I was afraid of bumping into this group of people. Therefore, I waited until the group of people had gone further in the opposite direction before following them, but Bai Haitang and Lamei had disappeared.
The next day, the waiter returned to Zhengyang Buzhuang and reported to the boss ashamedly that he was embarrassed.
"It doesn't matter." The boss of Buzhuang waved his hand. This surprised the waiter. This was not the boss's style. He always made clear rewards and punishments.
"I already know their details, look." The boss pointed to the restaurant not far away from the window. There was a new sign hanging on it, indigo dyed cloth, with a line of small words embroidered next to it: Qiaotou Village Haitang Dyeing House.
"Qiaotou Village Begonia Dyeing Shop." The owner of the cloth shop read these words slowly.
"Yes, I remembered, they were heading towards Qiaotou Village last night." The boy's words became more certain.
Looking around, the restaurants, embroidery shops, large and small places on the street, and even the fortune tellers all use white begonia cloth. The whole street is immediately more lively than yesterday, because there are more colors.
The owner of Buzhuang frowned and thought to himself, he is planning to rob my county business, or he already robbed it yesterday...
Begonia Dyeing Workshop.
Granny Haitang knew that her eldest son was about to take the exam, so whenever she had time in the past few days, she would burn incense and pray in front of the Bodhisattva. Bai Haitang had never seen such a future.
I hope that my son will return home in fine clothes, become the top scorer in high school, bring gold to the Tian family’s face, and honor our ancestors.
Although she now has food and drink, and she eats well and drinks well, which is more than enough, Granny Haitang always has a knot in her heart, that is, dyeing and selling cloth has always been a lowly job, and she is not respected by others.
Without prestige, it is impossible to bring glory to the ancestors.
Only by obtaining meritorious service and becoming an official can one be considered to have a glorious ancestor.
Therefore, my mother-in-law placed all her hopes on Tian Datong. We have a son who likes to study. He prays sincerely every day, hoping that the Bodhisattva will appear and bless my son to go to high school and get a gold medal.
