Chapter 15 The Magic Stone Society and Alchemy

Thank you, Wang Xiucai, the brothers on the top of the drunken peak, eqy for your rewards...

Unexpectedly, the two helpless gangsters from Hangzhou City didn't know what kind of incense they had burned in their previous life, and they could be summoned by Shang's father and said so many things.

In the future, even if they are Wen Fei, the men under Shang Father, see who will dare to provoke them in Hangzhou City from now on?

At this time, a Taoist priest in the green robe walked over with a wooden plate and smiled and said, "You two are Chen San and Song Wu, right?"

The two nodded quickly, and before they could speak, they heard the Taoist priest say, "This is what the Heavenly Master rewards you!"

As he said that, he uncovered the red cloth on the wooden plate, and saw two neatly scattered saints on it, and they were placed in two piles of white, afraid that there were not as many as a hundred. They shook their eyes.

Song Wu reached out and wanted to get the money, but Chen San kicked it down. He winked. Song Wu knew it and hurriedly shrank his hand and followed Chen San to kneel down and kowtow to the direction of Master Wen: "Young people can't repay the great kindness and virtue of Master Wen as a cow or a horse!"

The Taoist priest smiled slightly and remembered the performances of the two gangsters in his heart. He said: "The steamship is a divine object brought back by Shang's father from the fairy world. It is not something that ordinary people can go up. Only the devout believers of my teaching can board the steamship..."

The two of them were both surprised and happy to hear that, and they didn't know what kind of incense they had burned in their previous life. They could actually do things on the steamship that came down from that day? Wouldn't that mean that we can also get along with the immortal spirit?

Seeing Chen San and Song Wu leaving tactfully, Wen Fei thought to himself that Hangzhou is now a port city. It should not be difficult to recruit sailors, but it is not that easy to recruit sailors who drive a fire ship.

The most optimistic estimate is probably several months, right? As for the issue of loyalty, Wen Fei is not worried at all. Now that he has the momentum of time and space in the Northern Song Dynasty, he has become. No matter how brainwashing power is there, there is no problem with these.

The problem is that Wen Fei wants more now. He used to not have much interest in introducing technology and knowledge into the time and space of the Northern Song Dynasty. After all, he was a charlatan and did not need science and technology to break up his own platform.

But now with the general trend of Master Wen Da Tian’s life, especially since his own practice has reached the level of interfering with real matter, he has fewer concerns about introducing technology.

In fact, Wen Fei had long felt that the matter of gunpowder causing heavenly tribulation is not irresolvable. However, Master Wen was not too concerned about introducing various science and technology, so he put it aside.

Now, as Wen Fei's Tao has been established, Wen Fei is much less afraid of the introduction of science and technology in the Northern Song Dynasty.

The key question now is how to organically combine science and technology with Taoist teachings. Since the Tao is the truth and the law, then it is naturally necessary to include science and technology!

Wen Fei just thought about these questions for a moment. He really had to do too many things in the time and space of the Northern Song Dynasty. All these things need to be done step by step.

Now Wen Fei is more important to reform Taoism and establish a more complete and strict organization. Only by providing more important help to his own path.

Thinking of Yang Guishan and Neo-Confucianism, Wen Fei sneered. Whether it was the two little people, Qingbancheng, Li Zhongjun, or Chen San and Song Wu, they were all useful people, but whether it was Yang Guishan or Neo-Confucianism, it seemed that Master Wen Dadi had no use at all.

It's just very obvious. There is a kind of person who is called "to be successful but not enough to make things worse." For example, villains, of course, many times, the so-called gentleman and that villain are similar in this regard.

In the eyes of Master Wen, this Yang Guishan, who claims to be a disciple of a saint and a gentleman, is a useless guy. But Yang Guishan himself would not think so.

When he returned home that night, the old master Yang suppressed the shock of the tide god offering treasure in the sky, and ignored his dizziness. He began to write letters under the dim oil lamp, sending them to all over the world.

Soon, the Jedi counterattack, which the Neo-Confucian disciples colluded with, or the desperate attempt to jump over the wall, was about to begin. However, all of this was soon known by Master Wen.

However, all this was not taken into consideration by Master Wen Da. After all, even in Confucianism, Neo-Confucianism is a marginal science, far less glorious than later generations.

Now Master Wen Datian is paying attention to something else, and he returns to modern time and space.

One by one, the strange-looking steamships are now standing on a secret pier.

For the modern shipbuilding industry, building a few thousand-ton ships is like playing. In China, the underwater cycle of 300,000-ton super-large oil tankers has been shortened from the initial 303 days to 38 days.

In the name of a company under a multinational company, orders were issued. In this not-so-large shipyard, it only took two or three months to build these ten thousand-ton ships. The steam turbine was the most time-consuming one.

Originally, this small shipyard had inexplicably built several 500-ton steamer jets due to human relations, which was inexplicably enough.

No one expected that those foreign companies would go crazy and built ten sea ships at once. Well, a thousand-ton ship is at most a small boat. But this steam turbine is weird enough.

But this idea, no matter how strange it is, there are all things? Some people use wood to build sailboats across the Atlantic Ocean. Who knows if they are some prodigals who have fun and have no place to spend money? Now they are playing steam engines? Isn’t there a saying that is steampunk?

Anyway, the people in the shipyard are not too curious about building these ships.

Moreover, due to price, these steam engines have been processed again. Although they can still burn coarsely or even firewood, their power has increased a lot, and they can run at more than a dozen knots of "high speed" at sea and save fuel even more.

Speaking of which, it is much better than the first batch of Jianghu built by Master Wen. After all, the shipyard helped build those Jianghu just as the favor of Zhang Cheng’s family, but now it is doing business in real life.

"My Lord, are you still satisfied with these ships?" Sitting in the filmed car, Jack said to Wen Fei with a smile: "Actually, if you need a steam boat, we can ask the best designer to design the best steam engine that is definitely not inferior to the internal combustion engine!"

Jack is an old man in his sixties, his hair is a little gray, and his tailored suit shows extreme luxury in his restraint.

Perhaps he was the youngest of those apostles of Wen Fei. After Tom punished himself, he took over Tom's work and became an apostle serving the true God.

"Yes, now, with the financial resources and connections of the church, it is not difficult to create a better steam engine. But it is difficult to burn coarse coal and wood!" Wen Fei said.

Although I don’t know why Wenfei used this boat to burn coarse coal or even wood, since Wenfei didn’t plan to say it, he naturally didn’t dare to ask. He still remembered Tom’s fate, and the glory of the true god is absolutely not to be blasphemous.

Wen Fei was also very satisfied. If it were himself to transport these ships away without anyone noticing. However, with a powerful force behind it, all this would be much simpler.

As long as Master Wen Datian continued to explain it in one sentence, he naturally had many capable subordinates who brought these ships to this dock with inconspicuous means.

"Tonight, let everyone leave." Wen Fei ordered: "I want to get all these ships away!"

"Yes, my lord!" Jack was so clever that he didn't ask Wen Fei how to get it away.

This made Wen Fei nodded with satisfaction, and then Jack said, "My Lord, there is something that requires your consent. Recently, we are in contact with the people of the Magic Stone Society and want to absorb them into our church!"

"Magic Stone Club?" Wen Fei frowned.

"Yes, the Magic Stone Society!" Jack explained: "The Stone of the Sage, the Stone of Wisdom, the Fifth Element."

"Alchemy?" Wen Fei asked.

"Yes, the Magic Stone Society is a mysterious organization of alchemists." Jack said in a mysterious tone: "It is said that in ancient Egypt, in ancient Egypt, stoves were erected on the banks of the Nile River, and hundreds of alchemists were burying their heads in alchemy.

They burned over and over again, trying to turn ordinary metal into gold, such as copper into gold. Since all the work of the alchemists is kept secret, alchemy is also called secret crafts."

Wen Fei was about to sneer at the sight, but Jack laughed and said, "But according to our research, Western alchemy was basically transmitted from China to the Arab world, and it was about the eighth century. Then it was introduced to the West."

"Oh?" Wen Fei was about to say what was amazing about the alchemy in ancient Egypt, and how could he compare to the alchemy in Chinese? But he didn't expect Jack to say that. He couldn't help but be very interested.

"In the 8th century, alchemy appeared in the capital of Arabia, and the Arabs called it al-ki fanya. Among them, al is the article. According to research, ki fanya may have been transformed from the ancient pronunciation of "Gold Liquid". The content not only includes refining gold and making medicine, but also pursues a kind of elixir called Al-iksir (al-ik private r), hoping to use it to make people live longer and use it to light gold." Jack continued to say in a dark and low voice.

"The Muslim world originally had no idea of ​​immortality, and it would not produce the art of making immortal medicine. Their alchemy techniques are obviously related to China from the perspective of ideological basis and specific content.

However, Arab alchemy absorbed relevant knowledge from China and Europe, and developed in theory and practice. Around the 12th century, Arab alchemy spread to Europe with the influence of Islam. Al-ki fanya evolved into Alchie or Alche fanatic. That is, Magic Stone."
