Reborn Peasant Girl: I Rely on Carpentry as Minister of Industry

Chapter 64
Folk tales of gods and ghosts have always been a hot topic, and things that obviously didn't happen at all can be spread with nose and eyes by people.

The mass graves in Shiliba Village are located on Baishi Mountain in Shanshang Village. Occasionally, wars, plagues, and natural disasters occur. Due to the large number of deaths, people bury those dead people hastily or directly discard them there. combustion.

Baishi Mountain has always been an ominous place, and it has been endowed with countless ghosts and strange stories by people. It has naturally become a forbidden place after a long time, and the villagers seldom go to that area for activities. This is something everyone knows.

However, Jiang Chang'an's family is a bit special. She doesn't know about the mass graves in Baishi Mountain. It may be because her mother was picked up by Jiang's second child there.

The Jiang family should not let their family members mention this old matter.

However, in private, there are many rumors that Yao Shi is a ghost and ghost from the Luan Tomb, with bad luck, so few people are willing to associate with her.

When Jiang's second child wanted to marry the Yao family, not only the Jiang family objected, but even the villagers were not happy. Who knew Yao's details?Will it harm the whole village?
Especially when Jiang's second son made a fuss that it wasn't Yao who would not marry, no one would say that Yao was evil. Maybe she used her magic power to fascinate Jiang's second. Will Jiang's second be sucked in? Death?

Later, it was Li Shengun who came forward and made a fortune for Jiang Lao Er and Yao Shi. Of course, there was nothing.

Coupled with Yao's low profile, after marrying into Jiang's family, he kept his own place and gave birth to two more children. Gradually, people forgot what happened at the beginning.

However, those who did not deal with the Jiang family would still say that the Yao family was unlucky, otherwise how could Jiang Changan, a little idiot, be born, but are there still few idiots in the village?
Moreover, the once little fool has now become the one who is smarter than everyone else.

Jiang Changan didn't expect that there were random graves, it was really strange, "Are there really ghosts? Has anyone seen it? Is that large area full of random graves?"

"Of course there are ghosts. There are often will-o'-the-wisps there, especially from July to September. I have seen them once! The blue flames are faint, dancing in the air, floating around, just like heroic spirits.

It was so scary that I dared not go out at night for a long time, and I still feel creepy thinking about it now. "

Shen Dashun was afraid for a while. He was helping his father to watch the fire and boil the medicine at night, but when he turned around, he saw countless will-o'-the-wisps jumping on the mountain. He knocked over the medicine pots and rushed into the house to help his relatives.

Jiang Changan was dumbfounded, isn't it normal for there to be will-o'-the-wisps in Luanfengang?If there is a body there.

"Wild-o'-the-wisps are not ghosts. Didn't the books say that there is a substance called phosphorus in the bones. Its ignition point is very low, and it can spontaneously ignite when the temperature of the air reaches the temperature."

So, what the hell is a will-o'-the-wisp?And what are ghosts?Who can tell why?Anyway, Jiang Changan had never seen him before.

Shen Dashun was dumbfounded, which book said this?Why doesn't he know?
"Damn, it's recorded in the miscellaneous notes of the first empress." Why did Master Song have the empress's handwriting?Of course he didn't explain the reason, Li Shushen's eyes flickered slightly, and Shen Shikang was immediately shocked.

Mr. even has the Queen's handwriting, such peerless and precious books are placed there in such a grand manner, but he doesn't know them, and he never reads those miscellaneous books.

On the contrary, Jiang Chang'an, since she was a child, especially liked to read Mr.'s books, all kinds of books, and she could still remember them. That's why she learned so much knowledge, and she was able to stand out in the county's assessment.

After showing his ability, gaining fame, and quite a set of amulets, he dared to unblock himself now, and changed from a fool to a normal person, no, a smart person!
Master Song just wanted to prove that there was such a book. Jiang Changan was right. I don't know if this kid has read all the books in his book. His memory is really good.

If Jiang Chang'an hadn't mentioned it, Mr. Song would not have remembered it. Now that I think about it, it's true that will-o'-the-wisps can be explained by science, oh, no, by chemistry.

However, to this day, a man as knowledgeable as Master Song does not know much about chemistry.

"Impossible? Then why it happens that there are ghost fires only at night, but not during the day?" There must be ghosts, and ghosts can only be active at night when the yin energy is high.

"Because the sunlight is too bright during the day, covering the light of the phosphorous fire, of course we can't see it with the naked eye."

"No, no, there are not only will-o'-the-wisps on Baishi Mountain, but also occasional explosions and loud noises. Many villagers have seen it. It's ghosts with high magic power fighting and carnival."

Li Sanhe said excitedly, he is the one who has the most say in things like ghosts, who made his father a magic stick, his father said that he can't go to Baishi Mountain.

"My father also said that you can't go to Baishi Mountain even in the daytime. It's too cloudy there, and children are easy to get dirty with unclean things."

Jiang Chang reassured her, she really couldn't say anything about explosions, saltpeter is one of the ingredients of fireworks and explosives, mixed with flammable objects like cotton, it would be strange if it didn't explode.

But since no one had ever invented such a hot weapon as explosives, Jiang Changan didn't want to talk about it, so as not to cause trouble.

But, isn’t it too much to say it’s a carnival of ghosts?Could it be something tricky?There are very strict conditions for saltpeter to become a bomb by itself. No matter how you look at it, it looks like a trick deliberately created by some people to fool the villagers.

Jiang Changan became even more curious, and decided to find out, so he said in amazement, "Is there really a ghost? You didn't lie to me? Actually, I really want to see what the ghost looks like."

As soon as these words came out, the little students immediately lost their defenses, as if the layer of fear in their hearts had been pierced and vented out, and suddenly they didn't feel afraid anymore.

Besides, boys, most of them like to take risks, they are just ghosts, why don't they go and see what ghosts look like?

Master Song couldn't help laughing, a group of people were fooled by the little ghost's cleverness, but, "It's still early, so it's okay to go and have a look. In this world, sinister human hearts are always more terrifying than invisible ghosts."

Moreover, of course Master Song has been to the extremely terrifying Baishi Mountain in the villagers' mouths, of course, he never found out.

"Yes, sir." The students answered reluctantly. See, it was the master who asked them to go, not them themselves. After going back, their parents will definitely not blame themselves, right?
The Baishi Mountain is next to the Alkali Salt Land. It is a mountain that seems to have been pumped out. The whole body is white and gray, and even the trees are dry. Crows are startled and rattle from the top of people's heads. fly over.

This decadent scene turned out to be a forbidden place, right?Also, it was too scary, the students walked together in twos, moving forward cautiously.

Master Song led the students directly to the place where there was saltpeter. In fact, the stone was whiter, so there was nothing special about it.

Moreover, Jiang Chang'an turned on the system scan, good guy, this is clearly a natural saltpeter mine, it is big and deep, not to mention ice making, even pyrotechnic powder and glass can be made.

Of course, Jiang Changan only intends to make ice, no matter how much it is, it is not something her identity can contaminate.

"It's pretty clean here, and I haven't seen any messy graves." Finally, it won't affect her use of saltpeter, right?

"Hehe, the graveyard is at the other end. In summer, the southeast wind blows, and the other end is just under the wind. When the will-o'-the-wisps are born, some things can be burned down. Everyone can go and have a look."

Master Song explained with a smile, with some malicious intent in his eyes.

Jiang Changan immediately used the system to scan from a distance, and then saw a few scattered bones!

From as small as knuckle bones to as large as heads, there are animal ones, and of course human ones!
Song Wuzi is really, wickedly funny!Obviously trying to scare everyone.

Jiang Changan shook his head, shifted his gaze to a lot of other things, and then found out!
I'm stupid!So many rough emeralds!
