Latest website: The wood lays on the body of the old building, suffering from

the "torture" of nature in the growing mottled. The thunder and lightning are

the most unwilling to die, they will jump from the clouds and "bite" the wood

shell time and time again. As a result, the ancient craftsmen used their

wisdom to start a game in exchange for the survival of the dwelling under the

thunder and fire.

On the bank of the misty Dongting Lake, there stands a 39-meter-high,

octagonal and seven-story brick tower, which looks exceptionally tall and

straight. The brick tower is an octagonal Cuanjian Baoding, with a dark iron

pestle in the middle pointing straight to the sky. The surrounding decorations

are all constructed according to its structure, showing the appearance of

eight bread clips. The several iron chains that connected the treasure to the

fixed function climbed along the vertical ridge to the wing corners, hung

down, and finally took refuge to the earth in a crawling posture. It is the

Cishi Pagoda, and it is also the earliest proof of the confrontation between

wisdom and thunder and fire of the ancestors of this ancient civilization. It

is thanks to the combination of iron rod and iron chain that the ancient

pagoda can escape fortunately in countless thunder fires.

Lightning rods are not a product of modern society, but appeared in the

Central Plains more than a thousand years ago! There is such a record in

"Broken Hubzi": During the Han Dynasty, the Boliang Palace was hit by a fire.

A wizard suggested that a copper tile in the shape of a fishtail should be

placed on top of the layer to prevent sky fire caused by lightning. The

fishtail tiles set on the roof actually double as lightning protection and can

be considered the embryonic form of lightning rods.

In the ancient times when the gods embraced, simple technology can only take

root and sprout in the beliefs and doubts of the predecessors only by "turning

the mountains" around religion. As a result, the ancestors' evasion of thunder

and lightning followed the civilization of that era and was grazing by the

river valley waiting to be awakened.

Metaphysics is quite representative in Chinese traditional culture, such as

the Five Elements and Eight Diagrams. In the field of gossip, the "zhen"

hexagram is "thunder". After combining the directions, there are "Nanli,

Beikan, Dongzhen, Xidui" and "Southern Dongque, North Xuanwu (Turtle Snake. ,

The East belongs to the Blue Dragon, and the West belongs to the White Tiger.

Therefore, under the "conjecture" of the master warlock, the ancients

unanimously formed the "Thunder Conglong" thinking. Since then, in order to

avoid lightning strikes, the ancestors must construct and install lightning

protection facilities, which are all called "Zhenlong".

As a result, in the extraordinary appearance of ancient buildings, many

lightning protection devices called "Zhenlong" began to grow and multiply on

the bodies of ancient Chinese buildings.

For example, the tips of some ancient pagodas in China are often coated with a

metal film, and then the conductive material is used to directly connect the

tower core pillars underground, and the ends of the pillars are connected to

the "dragon cave" where the metal is stored. Connected. This formed a kind of

"Zhenlong" in ancient times.

In addition, such as the "tails" that stand upright on many ancient towers and

palaces, the animal-like tile decorations on the roofs, and the so-called

"thunder pillars" that are often erected in the tall halls, all of them are in

contact with the earth. The "Dark Pass" forms a good conductive channel and

becomes an important member of the "Zhenlong Clan".

These are the crystallization of the wisdom of ancient Chinese craftsmen! For

thousands of years, our ancestors have used the ultimate ingenuity,

interpreting simple science into another thrilling appearance. Although after

wind, rain and thunder and lightning, thousands of years have passed, they

still remain unmoved!

And the "Zhenlong" on the roof of Taimiao has been transformed into a

gunpowder depot starting device by someone with interest at this time. Li

Zexuan looked up and saw several thin iron wires drawn from the cracks near

the roof ridge, all inserted in them. In the top wooden box!

Although Li Zexuan was not a history major in his previous life, he also knew

that there were lightning protection devices in ancient buildings. Besides,

even if he didn't know these in his previous life, he still has physical

memories in his mind!

So seeing the several iron wires drawn down from the tile joints, I think of

the "Zhenlong" on the roof ridge that are used for lightning protection, and

Li Junxian's secret letter stating that the sun will change the color of the

sky and the sky will roll. At this moment, Li Zexuan understood everything!

Someone wants to induce thunder in Taimiao, when the electric spark produced

by thunder and lightning matches the sulfur and charcoal in this room, Taimiao

80% will be doomed!

But will sulfur powder and charcoal powder really be detonated under the

action of electric sparks?

This Li Zexuan is really uncertain! After all, these two things are flammable

substances at best, and Li Zexuan doesn't know whether they can be ignited by

electric sparks! Because he has not done any relevant experiments in modern

times!

"Huh? The color of the top box seems a little different! Is it a coincidence,

or is it a different thing?"

At this time, Li Zexuan noticed that the wooden box on the top was slightly

lighter in color, and he couldn't help but have a trace of doubt in his mind.

After a moment of contemplation, Li Zexuan tapped his toes, leaving the

ground, flying into the air, and flying towards the top box. There were five

small holes punched on the top of the box, just enough to penetrate five. A

wire!

Li Zexuan pulled out the iron wire that went into the wooden box, and then he

returned to the ground with the wooden box in his arms. When he was about to

open the wooden box to find out, he heard a rush of footsteps outside the

temple, and he moved in his heart and turned around. Welcomed out.

As soon as I walked to the hall opposite the main entrance of the Taimiao

Temple, I saw Li Erlong walking in, and Li Zexuan quickly bowed his hands and

said, "See your Majesty!"

Li Er's face sank like water and said in a bad tone: "Huh! Yonganhou, you are

so bold, how dare you make trouble in Taimiao!"

Li Zexuan arched his hands and said with a serious expression: "Your Majesty,

the minister did not cause trouble, the minister came to the Taimiao just to

investigate the case!"

"Investigation?"

When Li Er heard this, his heart suddenly sank, and the matter had indeed

reached the worst he had expected, and the power of the Heavenly Dragon Sect

had penetrated into the palace! Thinking of this, he asked with an ugly face:

"Then what can you find out?"

Li Zexuan was about to speak, suddenly his tone of voice paused. After

hesitating for a while, he said: "Your Majesty, please hold back and go to a

place with your ministers!"

Since characters like Andezhong can be used by Tianlongjiao, Li Zexuan is

really not sure that Li Er's entourage must have no Tianlongjiao spies, so for

the sake of safety, he suggested that Li Erping left and right and went with

him alone. That special room to the northwest!

Li Er obviously understands this truth. Hearing that he didn't hesitate much,

he turned his head and said: "You are all waiting outside. Without my

instructions today, no one can approach this Taimiao for half a step!"

"Here~!"

The imperial army and several eunuchs who followed Li Erlai clasped their

fists and promised.

Li Er nodded, then turned around to look at Li Zexuan, and said lightly: "Lead

the way!"

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

Li Zexuan responded, turned and took Li Er, and walked towards the first room

in the northwest.

After a while, the two of them came to the room where the sulfur and charcoal

powder were stored. Li Zexuan pointed to the wooden boxes in the room and said

to Li Er: "Your Majesty, these boxes were sent by General Manager Ann to

transport them from outside the palace. Yes, they are the conspiracy of the

Heavenly Dragon Cult!"

"You said the Tianlong conspiracy is related to these wooden boxes?"

Li Er's eyes narrowed, a little hard to understand.

"Yes!"

Li Zexuan nodded, and then pointed to the five iron wires hanging from the

cracks near the roof ridge, and said: "Your Majesty, please see, the other end

of these five iron wires is connected to the dragon on the roof, and the other

end, It was CHA that entered one of these wooden boxes! Your Majesty knows

what is in these wooden boxes?"

The wood lays on the body of the old building, suffering from the "torture" of

nature in the growing mottled. The thunder and lightning are the most

unwilling to die, they will jump from the clouds and "bite" the wood shell

time and time again. As a result, the ancient craftsmen used their wisdom to

start a game in exchange for the survival of the dwelling under the thunder

and fire.
