Chapter 166 Helpless Exploration

The sudden explosion stunned Zhang Hao, and even more stunned countless people.

Zhang Hao clenched his hands tightly and watched Zhou Xueyao fall helplessly, but he was helpless. The distance is too far, and my cultivation... is too low!

Suddenly a black figure appeared and hugged Zhou Xueyao. It was a calm and heavy figure; but it was too far away to see clearly.

"It's Master Zhou Shuhai!" Someone shouted.

"So it's Lao Zhou..." Young Master Zhang felt relieved. Zhou Shuhai heard that his medical skills and alchemy methods are extraordinary, so Zhou Xueyao should be able to get the best care.

At this time, everyone also reacted. Many people wanted to rush over to check the situation and care about it, but they were blocked by the guards of Xinglin Hall.

Zhang Hao also wanted to go and have a look, but he couldn't get in, and he was in a hurry.

After waiting for about half an hour, Zhou Jue flew over, and he shouted: "Everyone, don't panic, it's okay, it's just a fryer, just get used to it."

Everyone immediately quarreled:

"Zhou Jue, it's not like we haven't seen an alchemy fryer before, but it's the first time that it can blow up a mountain. Are you sure you're doing alchemy? You can't do this with elixir!"

"Yes, yes, Master Zhou, what happened, tell me! This has turned half of the hillside!"

Everyone was chattering, obviously not believing that this was a so-called fryer.

Zhou Jue yelled: "It's really a fryer. We are trying a brand new elixir. It's okay, it's really no big deal. Tomorrow's alchemy competition will continue as usual."

Zhang Hao saw the opportunity, and flew directly to Zhou Jue's side: "Senior brother, Shimei...are you okay?"

Zhou Jue glanced at Zhang Hao and thought for a while: "Come with me."

Zhang Hao followed Zhou Jue passing by the location of the explosion. Looking at the scene of the explosion, Zhang Hao was stunned to himself: "It was such a violent explosion. There are obviously traces of formations and barriers around here, and the houses have obviously been reinforced, but they are still covered. Fried shattered.

A large pit with a radius of more than 60 meters appeared on the ground. Within a radius of more than 200 meters, there were rocks everywhere, and there were even rocks three or two meters in size.

Such an explosion shocked Zhang Hao. A deep pit with a size of 60 meters was blasted on the ground that was almost completely rocky, and the explosion was on the ground, not underground. This power was beyond imagination.

Even the top missiles in another world cannot blast such a hole in the ground.

Seeing such a scene, Zhang Hao was even more worried about Zhou Xueyao, wondering what was going on?

Following Zhou Jue to Xinglin Hall, Zhang Hao didn't even have the mood to observe the surrounding situation, so he walked in quickly. I don't want to see a black robed man in his thirties waiting quietly just after entering the hall.

"Father." Zhou Jue stood aside obediently.

Zhang Hao rushed to meet: "Zhang Hao pays respects to senior."

After all, Zhang Hao looked at Zhou Shuhai. As early as when Zhou Jue told the story of Zhou Shuhai's past, Zhang Hao had a yearning for Zhou Shuhai, and wanted to see what kind of person he was.

When he arrived near the Xinglin Hall this morning, looking at the mountainous Xinglin, Zhang Hao felt a strong desire in his heart.

When Zhou Xueyao had an accident earlier, Zhou Shuhai was a flash in the pan, but he showed an extraordinary demeanor. Looking closer now, Zhang Hao sees more:

Wearing a simple black robe, Zhou Shuhai wore it freely, calmly and tolerantly. Zhou Shuhai looked like he was in his thirties, but the mulberry trees in the corners of his eyes made him thicker and calmer.

Zhang Hao was observing Zhou Shuhai, and Zhou Shuhai was also observing Zhang Hao, and said slowly, "I have long wanted to meet...my nephew."

Zhou Shuhai hesitated for a while about the word "virtuous nephew". At least it's an endorsement.

Zhang Hao immediately seized the opportunity and climbed up: "My nephew should have come to see Uncle Shi long ago, but he has been busy until today. Every time I prepare a meeting ceremony in a hurry, I prepare a ton of top-notch black iron, and I will pay my respects." Uncle Wang Shi Haihan."

With that said, Zhang Hao took out a ton of 99.9% black iron from the storage ring.

The corner of Zhou Shuhai's mouth twitched, the ceremony was too heavy. He hesitated for a while.

"Father, take it." Zhou Jue sent a voice transmission beside him, "Little sister has already collected a ton of 99.9% black iron, and it is still here with me. Let me make it into a pill furnace."

"You can't persuade your sister! How can you just accept such a valuable thing!" Zhou Shuhai sent a voice transmission to Zhou Jue angrily; but on the surface, Zhou Shuhai maintained a graceful smile and took the black iron with both hands.

Zhou Jue quickly took it and put it on the ground. Conveying an apologetic smile to Zhou Shuhai, the sound transmission said: I don't know, I was shocked when my little sister gave it to me.

After receiving the gift, the atmosphere between the two parties became much more harmonious. Zhang Hao said immediately: "Uncle Shi, is Xueyao okay?"

Zhou Shuhai's face became serious, and the faint smile disappeared quietly: "It's nothing serious. She has many defensive methods, but she saved her life. But she suffered serious internal injuries, but I'm afraid I won't be able to participate in tomorrow's alchemy competition." .”

"Then... can I go in and have a look?"

"No need, her mother is taking care of her, and she needs to rest for a while, so it's not easy to disturb." At this moment, Zhou Shuhai's face was a little resistant, and he looked at Zhang Hao, a little...unfriendly!

Zhang Hao squinted at Zhou Jue, and saw a playful look.

Zhang Hao was speechless, he must have encountered the legendary 'father blocking the door'.

But now that Zhou Xueyao was sure of any serious problems, Zhang Hao's heart became active: "Uncle Shi, I don't know what kind of elixir Xueyao is refining, and what kind of violent explosion will happen?"

Such a violent explosion can...be used as explosives!

Zhang Hao was a little excited. Black powder has been verified before, and it has been verified by various means, but none of them are ideal. The power of gunpowder is not enough to pose a fatal threat to master practitioners. The most important thing is that the gunpowder formula is too simple and can be easily plagiarized, which Zhang Hao cannot tolerate.

As for mining and the like, it's even worse. This thing is not used by oneself, nor can it be leaked!

Of course, if there is really no other way, you can use it reluctantly. If you use it well, it will still have a certain impact on the practitioners of the foundation building stage and below. But Zhang Hao was not satisfied after all.

Zhang Hao always felt that there must be better "dynamite" in this world. Now Zhang Hao found that perhaps the breakthrough point is here in Xinglin Hall!

Failed to make alchemy but made explosives... What a familiar story!

Zhou Shuhai hesitated for a moment, asked Zhang Hao to sit down, and then slowly said: "This matter is a long story. Because our side has always been short of medicinal materials and is monopolized by the East. Therefore, as early as a hundred years ago, I started to study Some minerals, etc., to see if they can replace some medicinal materials.

The country of Qixia is extremely rich in mineral resources, and I have discovered many strange minerals one after another over the years.

However, the maturity of each prescription and the discovery and application of each medicinal material are the result of hundreds or thousands of years of accumulation. It is not easy to find another way.

However, we have not given up and have been studying various minerals.

Just now, Xueyao was trying to purify and refine a kind of ore, which I named 'Dragon Blood Stone', and it exploded. "

When Zhang Hao heard this, his eyes lit up, and the light in his eyes directly aroused the surprise of Zhou Shuhai and Zhou Jue—what's wrong with you?
