Chapter 416: golden altar, fireworks

The sun is shining and there are no clouds. The noon sun shines on the Shenwei Priest University, like the gaze of the Lord God. The golden statue of the sun hummingbird stands in the center, and the streamer is bright; the cloth of the gods holding lightning is erected high and fluttering in the wind.

After all, Shenwei University is a religious university, and the logo of the Lord God can be seen everywhere. Bright frescoes are carved on the masonry walls, telling the miracles and legends of the Lord God. In the vast school grounds, there are also two lofty altars of the Lord God. One is the gold of the sun god, and the other is the red of the **** of war.

At this moment, dozens of priests and craftsmen are carefully busy on the altar. Hundreds of guard warriors wore bronze armor to maintain order in the field. Hundreds of priests and apprentices waited solemnly under the altar,

Elaine in the crowd stood on tiptoe and looked at the two altars. Several heavy wooden boxes were stacked on the golden altar, soil was spilled from the wooden boxes, and there were more than a dozen sealed bamboo pipes in the boxes. On the red altar, there is a strange huge circular paper ball with a diameter of about six meters. The bottom of the paper ball could not be seen clearly, there seemed to be some extra arrangement, and there was a turkey next to it, which was bound with chicken feet and croaked.

"The items on these altars are full of mystical meanings, like some kind of ritual sacrifice."

Elaine pondered to herself, and her eyes finally found the Great Chief Death God. Wearing sturdy platinum armor, the warchief strode up to the golden altar and was talking to the divine priest on the altar.

"Blessed by the Lord! Are you all ready?"

Shirot asked solemnly.

"Blessed by the Lord! Your Majesty, everything is ready!"

Nerco, the priest of divine revelation, was a little excited. He was originally a senior salt worker in Prepecha, but was selected by Shen Qi to become a gunpowder craftsman in the kingdom, and was promoted to a first-level priest of Shen Qi. He devoutly prayed to the Lord God and saluted the king.

"Praise the Lord God! Praise Your Majesty! According to your instructions, we use the tough old bamboo as the release container. First add enough gunpowder to the bamboo tube, and leave one end open. In the gunpowder, it is buried. Many small flammable paper **** are filled with the same gunpowder and different mineral powders. As long as the opening leads are lit, the gunpowder will spray the paper **** out and then ignite, which will form the grace of the Lord God, fireworks of various colors. Holy fireworks!!..."

As Nelco spoke, he pointed to the mark at the bottom of the bamboo tube.

"Your Majesty, look, the bottom of the bamboo tube is marked with the color of the fireworks, and the added minerals are also recorded!"

"very good!"

Shilott smiled and praised. He took out a firework bamboo pipe and carefully inspected it for a while, which was not much different from the home-made fireworks in his memory.

Fireworks generally use a secondary layered gunpowder structure. The primary structure is to launch gunpowder, which requires a higher explosive force to send a simple secondary structure to the sky. The secondary structure is chromophore powder, in which various chromophores are mixed. The secondary structure of home-made fireworks is relatively simple. If it is a high-altitude fireworks of later generations, there are special fuzes, detonating powders, gunpowder and light beads in the secondary structure.

Of course, for the king, simplified earthen fireworks are enough.

After checking, Shilot nodded in satisfaction. He personally picked up a pyrotechnic bamboo pipe and instructed Nelko next to him.

"ignition!"

After a moment of silence, hundreds of priests and apprentices kept their eyes fixed on the kings and craftsmen on the golden altar. Nelco ignited the lead, and the king held the bamboo pipe high, aiming at the sky. Then, there was a sharp explosion, which shocked the audience's ears!

"Boom~bang~bang!"

On the continent of America, in the eyes of everyone in awe, the first beam of brilliant fireworks rose to the sky more than 20 meters, and then burst into bloom! This is a bunch of red fireworks, just like a red cicada flower, suddenly blooming in front of everyone, and then it is fleeting, leaving only the faint smell of fireworks in the wind!

"Ah! Praise the Lord God!"

A low voice of prayer rang from the mouths of the priests and apprentices who were watching, and then turned into a neat and high prayer.

"Praise Your Majesty!"

Shulot opened his eyes wide and stared at the fireworks in the sky silently. Many long-term memories come to my mind, and I miss them thousands of times, which makes people linger in their dreams. The scenes of the New Year are like frozen photos, and like unreachable dreams.

The king lowered his eyes, calming down his turbulent emotions. It has been a long time since he was so emotional, even a little moved.

Nerco on the altar bowed his head and prayed for a moment, and replied to the king.

"Your Majesty, the red fireworks are filled with lapis lazuli powder."

"Very good!"

Shirot nodded slightly, and all his emotions disappeared. The composition of lapis lazuli is strontium sulfate crystals, and the strontium salt emits red light when it burns, which is the flame reaction mentioned in high school chemistry. Then, he picked up another firework bamboo tube marked with purple, and commanded in a deep voice.

"ignition!"

"Boom~bang~bang!"

After a few breaths, a purple firework bloomed in the sky above, almost blending with the deep sky. The priests and apprentices onlookers exclaimed again, shouting the grace of the Lord God! The fireworks during the day are already so strange, but at night, what kind of splendid and colorful?

"Your Majesty, purple fireworks are added with plant ash."

Plant ash is potassium salt, and the flame reaction is light purple when burning~www.readwn.com~ The king paused, and then picked up the green-marked pyrotechnic bamboo tube.

"ignition!"

Along with the deafening explosion, green fireworks bloomed in the sky, which set off against the sky blue background with a touch of blue. In the legends of the mountains of Tekes, the green flames were the gateway to the land of the dead, able to communicate with the terrifying **** of death.

Elaine stared blankly at the strange flames of different colors, her heart was full of awe for the gods, and she had uncontrollable expectations.

"The strange flame is the power of the gods! How did the mysterious death chieftain master it?"

The king stared at the light blue flame, and said in a low voice without waiting for Nelco to speak.

"Green and blue fireworks, copper powder is added here."

"Exactly! Your Majesty's divine revelation."

Shirot reached out his hand and touched the next bamboo pipe, with a smile on his face.

"Yellow marker, sodium salt."

The king's eyes flickered, and a formula sounded inexplicably. He murmured in a low voice, and Nelco listened, but it was a strange word like a spell.

"Purple red lithium, brick red calcium, magenta strontium, yellow green barium, sodium yellow, verdigris, potassium rubidium violet..."

After setting off more than ten bamboo pipe fireworks in a row, Shilot stopped in contentment. He looked under the altar, the young faces that were shocked, fearful, pious, and yearning, smiled slightly. Then, the king spoke loudly, telling the truth of nature that had been prepared for a long time.

"The Lord God is supreme and great. He formulates the laws of all things, makes the heaven and the earth move, and never violates it. The principle of nature is the supreme principle of the Lord God! Everything in the heaven and earth has laws and laws. Only by exploring the principles of nature can we grasp the supreme. The mighty power!"

"The creations created by God's revelation are all derived from the principles of nature. Today, I will use strange creations to tell you one or two, the mysteries of the gods behind the world!"
