Chapter 504
What enables human beings to survive and develop is not talent, but inheritance.

What?Yu Fan also wants to perform the method of burning ice with fire?

Everyone stared at Yu Fan in disbelief, but Yu Fan was calm and composed, looking normal.

Everyone waited for Zhang Zai to go to the kitchen to retrieve a lot of ice cubes and an empty glass bowl.

Yu Fan stood still, calm and relaxed, imitating the way Zen Master Deming did last night, holding the empty bowl with his hand, and poured ice cubes into the glass bowl.

Yu Fan muttered: "Everything is impermanent, the victor will decline, let nature take its course, time will come and go! All things are manifested, all dharmas are empty, insight into the secrets of heaven, water and fire are incompatible!" Something like that.

The people next to him didn't speak, and their expressions were complicated, with a hint of doubt and a hint of fear.

After chanting the "spell", Yu Fan took a match from Zhang Zai, struck it lightly, and then threw the match into a glass bowl filled with ice cubes.

What kind of medicine is sold in Yu Fan's gourd?Chen Xingyang and Guo Na didn't know either, they only knew that Yu Fan's "performance" would never let everyone down.

The match fell into the bowl in a graceful arc.Instantly!A group of fire soared into the sky!The ice in the whole bowl actually ignited a raging fire!And the flames are getting bigger and bigger!

This scene was even worse than Zen Master Deming's last night!

Because it was a close contact today, the visual impact received by the believers present was even stronger, and they all exclaimed!
Seeing the situation, Chen Jianyang yelled at these people: "You were so bold to disobey Buddhism just now, why don't you kneel down now?"

Huifang hurriedly led the disciples to kneel down, and quickly admitted his mistake: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, we are stupid. I didn't know that you are actually eminent monks who practiced with Zen Master Deming. Disrespect and disrespect!"

Chen Xiangyang must be smiling badly in his heart, this group of people are really easy to deceive.

There is a trace of compassion in Yu Fan's heart. When people lose their own thinking and give everything to the so-called gods, they will only become a body that obeys orders. The man has gold under his knees, but in the end he is also If you say kneel, kneel.

The road of exploring the truth is tiring, but every step is progress.The road of going with the flow is easy, but unfortunately it is all downhill.How many people in this world are born with an excellent talent, but in the end they can't persevere to the end, choose that easy road, spend their whole life in a daze, and in the end, they still pretend to follow the fate.It's pathetic.

Yu Fan calmly said to Huifang and other believers, "Now, am I qualified to practice the secret way?"

Huifang replied repeatedly: "Of course, of course, of course I am qualified." Huifang used three "of course" in a row, with a very sincere attitude, "It's just..." Huifang began to hesitate again, and seemed to have some concerns.

Chen Xingyang scolded: "What else is there? Just now showing you stupid beings that mana has already consumed our master's cultivation base, you have benefited a lot, don't be so greedy!"

Baitang also stood up and spoke: "Exactly! I have observed you for the past two days. One or two of you claim to be practitioners, people with high morals, and you claim to be superior to others. But when you carried the sign in the Daxiong Palace, you one by one beat each other. Fierce, it's all about grabbing merit. When listening to the Dharma meeting in the main hall, they all crowded forward without any humility! You are still 'greedy' from the bottom of your heart! You want to take everything, but in the end I don't think you can take anything! "Baitang's tone was fierce.

Huifang bowed her head again and again to make amends: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, but..." Huifang still hesitated.

Just as the scene was getting tense, there was a sudden scream from the crowd!
"It's on fire! It's on fire!"

ah?Everyone looked around, only to see a large puff of black smoke suddenly rising from the direction they came from!

That direction is...

"Tent! The tent is on fire!" someone in the crowd yelled.

Oh no, there is a fire in the group of tents, this is troublesome, if it is really a fire in the group of tents, where the tents are next to each other, the fire will spread very quickly, and in an instant it will be—burn the whole camp!
Now everyone panicked, and Huifang, who took the lead, and the believers rushed back in a panic: "Put out the fire! Put out the fire!"

Zhang Zai also hurried to fight the fire with everyone, threw the flashlight to Yu Fan, and ran away.In an instant, the group of people were all attracted by the fire, and only Yu Fan, Chen Xingyang, Guo Na, and Bai Tang were left at the door of the secret road.

Chen Xingyang gloated and said, "Hmph, don't you stop us now? My house was burned, retribution."

Yu Fan looked at this deep secret passage. It seemed that there was a demon curled up in the depths of this secret passage, quietly waiting for everyone to take the bait. This secret passage gave people an extremely uneasy feeling.

At this time, Guo Na came over and asked curiously: "Brother Yu, how did you light the ice with fire just now? I thought about it for a long time, and I can see the way."

Baitang and Chen Xingyang also agreed curiously: "Yes, why did you add 'mana' just now?"

Yu Fan smiled, took out a few small broken stones from his pocket, and said, "Actually, it's all about this thing."

Chen Frameyang: "Old Yu, what is this?"

Yu Fan: "This thing is called calcium carbide. The chemical name is calcium carbide. When it meets water, it will react violently immediately to form acetylene and release heat. I just found this stone in the tea box in Zen Master Deming's meditation room. I saw this Things, I know how the 'magic' changed last night."

Chen Frameyang: "I still don't understand."

Yu Fan: "The principle is very simple. You only need to put a small amount of calcium carbide in a bowl, and then it reacts with a small amount of water on the ice surface. The resulting calcium carbide gas (chemical name is acetylene) is a flammable gas. Concentrated sulfuric acid and potassium permanganate are stuck on the glass rod held by Zen Master Deming. Since concentrated sulfuric acid and potassium permanganate are both strong oxidants, they can oxidize calcium carbide gas and reach the ignition point immediately, making calcium carbide gas combustible. , because the reaction between water and calcium carbide is an exothermic reaction, and the heat released by the combustion of calcium carbide gas makes more and more water melted into ice cubes, so the reaction of calcium carbide is faster, and more and more calcium carbide gas is produced. It will become more and more prosperous. This is the little trick that Zen Master Deming used a glass rod to ignite the ice last night. Today I simplified it a bit. I directly ignited the acetylene gas released by the calcium carbide and water with a match, and the same can be achieved' Dance of Ice and Fire' effect."

Chen Xingyang said contemptuously: "Hmph, I knew this bald donkey was an old liar, as expected, I really wanted to poke him on the spot! See him make a fool of himself."

Yu Fan: "Okay, let's leave them alone, now that there is a fire over there, let's go down the secret path and find out."

"Okay!" Everyone agreed, turned on the flashlights and walked down the secret road...
