Chapter 36: Dead by Night (1)
Although Garde left, but after that, the Flame Chamber of Commerce's Lake still traded as usual, and Su Zhen used his own things to buy some substances, most of which were used in exchange for horses except for oil and salt, but horses are really synonymous with being expensive everywhere. The pen %fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Su Zhen, so things were only changed for 10 horses.
After that, everyone returned to the post station, and Ogilis also persuaded Su Zhen to give Angelina to the lord, but Su Zhen refused without thinking about it.
No matter how depressed he is, he has not reached the point where he can survive by sending women!
After returning to the station, it was already dark when the wolf cried. After eating a dinner like the same wax, Su Zhen thought about his horses and decided to go out and have a look
As soon as he walked into the courtyard wall of the post station, Su Zhen's body suddenly paused slightly, and then walked to his horse as if nothing happened, fed some grain and grass, and then Shi Shiran went back.
It's just that when I came back, there was a hint of coldness in my eyes, and the corners of my mouth brushed a trace of cold arc!
Archers were in ambush at the top of the surrounding buildings, and layers of hoplites were below.
There are at least a thousand people in ambush around the station!
With so many people in ambush, is Garde going to break the rules and do it!
Obviously, Su Zhen is not qualified to let Garde break the rules,
Then the answer is obvious!
Their goal is to,
The first force under the command of the Eastern Territory - Martha!
。。。
At night, the most luxurious room of the inn.
Unlike other places, this large room is not only cleaned, but even the interior decoration is much more luxurious. The floor is paved with fine yak skins, and there is a fireplace on the stone walls on the left and right sides, which illuminates the whole large room as warm as ever. In the middle of the large room, Martha sat faintly, and a beautiful maid stood beside her.
"You said Luthers ... It's a mole, you're sure! ”
"Lady Martha, now that Luthers may have launched an internal rebellion, and Maru and the others were attacked by unknown creatures, 2,000 garrisons were wiped out, and 2,000 people were urgently sent to support, all of which were self-written and directed by them! Madam! Think about it, how could there be such a strong unknown creature, they are distracting your attention and lowering your vigilance. Madam, the situation is extremely urgent, you must make a judgment sooner! The fortress of Martha, which is in civil strife, will definitely not be able to hold on for long! Madame, this is not a place to stay for long, we must get out of here as soon as possible! The man in front of Martha knelt respectfully, his face full of anxiety.
Hearing this man's affirmative words, a touching smile appeared on Martha's bewitching face, and her eyes narrowed:
"Gard concealed Maru's death, and secretly sent a large number of troops out of the city, and really wanted to... Hands-on? ”
"Ma'am, they're dreaming!" A man next to Martha immediately said with a murderous face.
"Yes, ma'am, we will not let them succeed!" The soldiers below also said with murderous expressions on their faces.
Knock knock~~
There was a sudden knock at Lady Martha's door.
"Who!"
"Lady Martha, I'm Su Chen, I see that Madame seems to be very interested in magic soap during the day, and I just have one left here."
"I understand Mr. Su Zhen's beauty, but this kind of lady's beauty thing, I... Martha coldly interrupted Su Chen's words!
Before Lady Martha could finish speaking, Su Scar also interrupted Martha's words:
"Madame, it's better to open the door, these beauty things can sometimes... Save your life! ”
The last three words, Su Zhen said extremely indifferently, as stiff and cold as iron.
Martha's face darkened, her eyes darkened, and her soldiers warily put their hands on the hilt of their swords.
"In that case, then Mr. Su Zhen, please come in!" Lady Martha's majestic and indifferent voice sounded slowly.
Su Zhen gently pushed open the door, raised his eyes and glanced at the special soldiers who were ready to go, but he didn't even frown, but looked at Martha with eyes as deep as the starry sky, with a smile on his face, and said softly:
"After ten years, break through to the west, and avoid the open space after going out."
The reason for breaking through to the west was because the houses there were low and the least number of houses, and the archers in ambush were the fewest in ambush, and the reason for avoiding the open space was that it was in the best interest of Martha to avoid the heavy soldiers as much as possible, so that they could have a chance to escape.
Lady Martha's eyes lit up, and a cold chill rose in the air.
Su Zhen didn't feel the depression and coldness in the air, and at the end he smiled to himself and said:
"Lady Martha, in this kind of night sky, you'd better not use your fire magic, otherwise you won't be able to save yourself by digging your own grave!"
After speaking, Su Jin didn't wait for Martha to finish, and walked back with a calm expression.
When he was about to reach the door, Su Zhen suddenly paused, and Su Zhen seemed to be talking to himself:
"Lady Martha, remember, you owe me half my life!"
Then there was a loud voice, and the door to the room had been closed by Su Chen.
Lady Martha's face was oozing a fine layer of sweat, and she looked at the person who stepped back, this person was the one who had just been questioned by Martha.
Rumble!
Suddenly a flame burned on the man, and the man screamed in pain, but did not make a sound.
Martha's gaze pressed towards the man, and the anger she tried to suppress made Martha's voice tremble:
"Jeffrey, I saved your life, and now you betray me. Tell me, why, where did I Martha treat you badly!"
"Madam, that one named Su Zhen, does what he said necessarily be true? Break through, do they really dare to make the decision to ambush you at the post station, and how will he gain a foothold in the eastern territory after that. And didn't you say before that you already knew that Luthers was a mole and deliberately kept him? The maid to Martha's left asked, puzzled.
"No, he's right, I'm a high-level mage after all, and they can only make sure they can kill me 100% if they have Geoffrey by my side! As for why you have to do it... ”
Martha's eyes shone sharply, and she actually laughed, and said with great certainty:
"Because Malu is dead, and Maru's 2,000 people are also dead, so he doesn't care about face at all!"
"That's true! There really are such terrible creatures! The maid's face was full of disbelief.
"It's not what we're supposed to be concerned about right now, now we're thinking about how we're going to survive tonight and get out of here!" Martha's eyes turned cold.
"Madame, is it ... Really do what the man says, he's just the commander of the amputated camp, and... Why should he help you! ”
"Yes!" Martha replied unquestioningly, but her eyes were full of doubt.
In the Lord's Mansion, a middle-aged man as majestic as a lion kept pacing with an anxious face, and it could be seen that he was in a hurry.
Leslie and Elise were standing aside. Elise was a little impatient and couldn't help it, so she asked:
"Father, isn't it too rash for us to do something to Martha without even figuring out the matter of unknown creatures now?"
"Humph! If you don't do it now, will you wait for others to go back and bring troops to kill you! Lesis snorted disdainfully.
"But this time it wasn't a demon that attacked Uncle Maru, but another creature, what if it came to the Eastern Territory! It would be dangerous to attack before we have even figured out what is really going on! Elise and Leslie argued.
"Unknown creature! Heh, it's just that Uncle Maru didn't see it clearly, and it's not necessarily impossible for a demon to look like that! And it's all demons, so what's so strange, it's not unheard of this kind of demon suddenly coming out to attack people, but this time the location it chose is a little different. ”
"But Martha is a third-level magician, and there are two quasi-third-level magicians next to him, a quasi-third-level warrior, and a hundred dead soldiers around him, the chance that we can really kill him is less than sixty percent!"
"Enough!" The voice of the middle-aged man who was as majestic as a lion exploded like thunder in this room, and said indifferently:
"Whether or not the unknown creature will appear, the most important thing we need to do right now is to kill Martha. As soon as Martha dies, we occupy Martha's territory, and those in the Eastern Territory will be truly obedient. At that time, no matter how strong that unknown creature is, I can drag it with my life! ”
After speaking, the middle-aged man asked the soldier on the side:
"Where's Jeffrey! Did he succeed in getting Martha out? ”
"No news yet!"
As long as Jeffrey succeeds in tricking Martha out, he will not only have an excuse, but also have a greater chance of killing Martha.
"Let's see!"
"Yes!"
Gard's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he said coldly:
"I don't want a 50% chance! Lesis, go for it! Summoned Drow, and said that Maru was dead, and asked him if he would be interested in being the leader of the Aventurine Territory... Master! ”
When Elise heard Garde's words, the light in her eyes dimmed instantly, and she sat weakly on the chair beside her.
Gard strode outside as if he hadn't seen it!

After Su Zhen came out of Martha's room, Su Zhen first asked Ye Ziming and the others to pay attention to the situation outside, not to meddle in any party, and at the same time to be careful of some stray arrows. He went to the kitchen, and he needed some charcoal and saltpeter. As for the sulfur, Su Zhen has it, mainly for disinfection and insect repellent, which is a habit that Su Zhen developed when he fought against the people in the south.
Sulfur and saltpeter were also present in wolf crying and were a medicine while in the Tang Dynasty in China. I have already mastered the technology of making gunpowder from sulfur + saltpeter + charcoal, so this is very simple - just mix it together in proportion, wrap it in something, and then light it with a lead.
As for the ratio, it seems to be one sulfur (sulfur) dinitrate (potassium nitrate) and three charcoal (sawdust), the chemical reaction formula is: S + 2KNO3 + 3C = K2S + N2 + 3CO2, N2, 3CO2 These two gases appear in large quantities in a short period of time, forming a huge pressure difference, which is an explosion!
Su Zhen wanted these ten minutes to naturally make enough gunpowder. After all, this inferior gunpowder is still handmade by Su Zhen on the spot, and this power is estimated to be a little more powerful than the cannonball.
After quickly making it, Su Scar casually exchanged 50 experience points for a fire-breathing book, for Su Scar, who has become a beginner mage, learning a fire-breathing technique is as simple as eating and drinking.
