The Young and Vigorous Eighth Prince

Chapter 120 When Witnessing a Miracle

No one knew what Jiang Fan wanted to do when he went to the Tower of Babel. Was he going to pray to the gods or Buddha? To pray for rain?!

But this is too ridiculous. There are countless monks and Taoists who have been invited to pray for rain due to drought, but no one has ever succeeded.

Does the Eighth Prince think that he can pray for rain by going to the Tower of Babel in Xiangguo Temple?

He made such a fuss about it, afraid that others wouldn't know he was going to embarrass himself?

Anyway, the people have different opinions, and with the slander and instigation of some people with ulterior motives, the people think that the Eighth Prince knows that he is a disaster star, and he wants to use the Buddhist influence to get rid of the name of disaster star.

The people's anger towards Jiang Fan reached its peak because of his high-profile behavior.

Even more people cursed Jiang Fan. Some people thought that Jiang Fan’s going to Xiangguo Temple might anger the gods and make the drought worse.

After this incident, some people even wanted to report it to the Emperor and ask Him to get rid of this evil star.

When they arrived at the Tower of Babel, the abbot of Xiangguo Temple and other monks came out to greet them, with a look of bewilderment on their faces.

No one knew what had happened that caused Emperor Yan to come here with a group of court officials.

When he heard that the Eighth Prince wanted to use the Tower of Babel to solve the drought, he was even more confused.

What? The Eighth Prince used the Tower of Babel to solve the drought. Damn, are you kidding me? Or did he hear it wrong?

It is true that the Tower of Babel is a Buddhist place, but a Buddhist place cannot solve the problem of drought. If it could solve it, they would still be worshipped by the people.

There are indeed a lot more people praying to Buddha for rain recently, but none of them has received rain!

But Emperor Yan asked him to open the Tower of Babel, so he did not dare to neglect it and quickly led Jiang Fan and others to the Tower of Babel.

At the same time, people from Ye Ren, Fan Xian and Huang Zhenren's families also sent silver bills.

Emperor Yan took the banknote and said that he was a witness, but Ye Ren, Fan Xian and Huang Zhenren knew that Emperor Yan was afraid that they would cheat. The corners of the three people's eyes twitched.

Moreover, they were worried and distressed, fearing that Emperor Yan would take advantage of this opportunity to seize the banknotes for himself.

They were not afraid of Jiang Fan winning. After all, Jiang Fan would definitely not win. They were just afraid that Emperor Yan would abuse his power for personal gain. Confiscated!

This is nearly one-third, or even half of their family assets. Because of this matter, almost all of his family's banknotes were emptied. Huang Zhenren has even emptied his family assets.

Seeing Emperor Yan put away the banknotes, Jiang Fan and Emperor Yan looked at each other, and the two father and son suddenly smiled.

Emperor Yan felt happy and relieved, and even had a long-lost feeling of cheating others. He recalled the scene when he and Jiang Fan cheated others at the Zhenyuan Military Training Ground.

Jiang Fan turned his head and looked at the ministers and princes around him who were full of mockery and contempt. He called the Chu brothers and Chu Yan'er, and carried two boxes towards the Tower of Babel.

Everyone looked at Jiang Fan carrying two large boxes, all confused and bewildered. With just these two boxes, you can solve the drought? Who are you trying to fool?

Amid everyone's contemptuous and mocking gazes, Jiang Fan brought the three siblings of the Chu family to the top of the Tower of Babel.

He came to the edge and asked the Chu brothers to carry a box each and use the momentum to reach the top of the tower.

Chu Yan'er picked up Jiang Fan tacitly and jumped to the top of the tower.

Jiang Fan couldn't help laughing. He was a grown man, but he actually wanted his wife to take him flying.

But when he thought of the fragrance of his wife, his heart was moved again. It was actually not bad to have a capable wife. It would be great if he could fly one day!

However, he quickly suppressed his fantasy, asked the Chu brothers to open the box, and found a flat spot on the top of the tower to erect a special gun barrel.

Chu Yan'er looked at Jiang Fan in confusion, not knowing what he was doing, but seeing Jiang Fan so serious, she always felt that Jiang Fan might really win this time.

After everything was ready, Jiang Fan looked down at the people below and said loudly, "Everyone, it's time to witness a miracle..."

His immature words stunned everyone. The Emperor Yan was stunned, Ye Ren, Fan Xian, Huang Zhenren, several princes and a group of court officials curled their lips.

They couldn't see the situation on the top of the tower, but everyone felt that Jiang Fan was really good at showing off.

Are you still witnessing miracles and witnessing your funny side?

Just as everyone was thinking this, Jiang Fan had already asked the Chu brothers to fire rain-inducing bombs into the air. Then, he asked them to fire two more rounds.

This rain-inducing bomb was made by him when he was in Huaining County. After receiving the reminder from Emperor Yan, he thought of this solution.

When Jiang Fan was in college, he had done experiments related to rain-inducing bombs. Making rain-inducing bombs is a piece of cake!

The rain-inducing bombs made by Jiang Fan contained silver iodide that he had extracted, as well as other catalysts.

As long as the shells are fired into the sky and exploded in the clouds, the silver iodide in the shells will burn into smoke and spread in the clouds, causing the water molecules in the clouds to gather and form a large-scale rainfall.

In ancient times, this method was considered a miracle, but in modern times, it has long been commonplace and is considered the most common method.

Jiang Fan was afraid that the shells might not be fired high enough, so he specially made the propellant for the shells, and even the gun barrel was specially made.

In addition, the chosen location is the tallest Tower of Babel in the capital, which will definitely achieve unexpected results.

As three rain-inducing bombs exploded in the air, everyone stared at them in a daze, unable to react for a while.

Is this a miracle? A miracle to show them off?

Everyone couldn't help but curl their lips, feeling that they were fooled by Jiang Fan. Some people were even ready to mock him.

As for the people who had gathered outside Xiangguo Temple, they were also stunned when they saw the three rain-inducing bombs suddenly explode in the air. They didn't understand why.

They came to watch the fun and to see what Jiang Fan was up to. But all they saw was Jiang Fan setting off fireworks.

However, just when everyone thought Jiang Fan had played a trick on them, suddenly, dark clouds appeared in the sky and gathered towards this side. Then, there was a burst of lightning and thunder.

The hot weather was suddenly cooled by a gust of wind. The dark clouds that had not appeared for dozens of days actually gathered.

The scene was dead silent, and everyone stared at it in a daze, thinking they had seen it wrong.

Ye Ren and Fan Xian, as well as several princes and a group of court officials, were so shocked that they almost fell to the ground.

What did they see? Jiang Fan released three explosive thunder weapons into the air, and there were signs of rain. How could this be possible?

These people were still hoping for a lucky break, thinking that Jiang Fan was just making some noise and would definitely not be able to bring rain.

But just as they had this thought, they saw heavy rain suddenly pouring down from the sky.

Not only were they stunned, but the people outside Xiangguo Temple were also dumbfounded. They all thought they had seen it wrong, but the rain hitting their bodies was a fact.

All the common people were so excited that they shouted loudly, and some even called the Eighth Prince a god. Only gods could have such power to call the wind and rain.

Some people even cursed at those who spread rumors that the Eighth Prince was a demon star. What the hell was this a demon star? A demon star that could turn clouds and rain with a flip of his hand?
