After explaining diligently, Xue finally understood his distress and did not urge him to ascend the throne and become emperor. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The long-distance training ended at about 1 p.m. the next day, and the new army, having paid the price of nearly half of the people left behind, finally arrived at Buchen's manor outside the southern city.
At this time, Chen Haonan was left with only one Wang Ergen in the class, Lu Dazhuang and the others fell behind early in the morning, and the squad leader Chen Haonan himself also fell behind ten miles before the finish line, only Wang Ergen insisted on reaching the finish line because of his good endurance and strong toughness.
But although it sounded very remarkable, Wang Ergen was still tired and lay on the ground when he reached the end, and he couldn't get up for anything.
The other soldiers who gritted their teeth and persevered to the finish line were similar to him, and they saw that the yellow earth outside the manor was densely covered with soldiers with crooked armor, like countless fish stranded on the shore, which was very funny.
Buchen also came to the outside of the manor at this time, he did not wear armor, and his physical fitness was far stronger than ordinary people, and the more than eighty miles of travel could only be regarded as a warm-up exercise for him, and there was no pressure at all. Looking at the big-headed soldiers lying on the ground, he couldn't help but think that if an enemy was killed at this time, even if they were all tofu scum soldiers under the command of Wenchen's turbans, it would be enough to stew these people in one pot.
"No, what are you thinking?" Seeing a self-deprecating smile on Buchen's face, Xue, who also didn't have much pressure to reach the finish line, asked curiously.
Buchen looked at her, leaned into her ear, and said what he had just thought, and Xue couldn't help laughing after hearing it.
"No, your brain hole is too big, right?"
He smiled smugly and said, "How can you be a gentleman with a small brain?" ”
Xue has been in the virtual reality for a long time, and she knows that "gentleman" is not a good word, and her face is a little red and she says: "Bad guy!" ”
Buchen just smiled evilly, but didn't speak.
At this time, Lao You had already advanced to the Zhuangzi to Zhang Luo, the old and weak to cook for the soldiers under his command, and Buchen and Xue were fine, so he walked among the soldiers to check on them.
The soldiers walked with the two of them all the way, although they were unable to ask about them due to military law, but they were all very curious about their identities, and when they saw them come to their side, some of them finally couldn't help it.
"I said, big man, who are you? Why do even we, General You, have to be careful to stay by your side? A soldier asked with a big grin.
Buchen was amused by his words, and he turned to the soldier and said, "Since you have to accompany me carefully when you see General You, why do you dare to ask me such a question?" ”
The soldier scratched his head and smirked twice, and said, "Because I look at your kind face, I shouldn't be a person with a small belly." ”
Buchen really couldn't cry or laugh, it was the first time in his life that he was said to be kind!
"You're really right, I really don't care!" Buchen smiled heroically.
"I'll just say that, right?" The soldier giggled again.
Seeing that Buchen was very kind, the other soldiers suddenly became bolder, and another soldier asked, "Big man, you haven't said who you are?!" ”
"And the girl with the bamboo hat next to you!" One more soldier added.
Buchen smiled and said loudly to them: "My surname is the world, and my double name is not a minister, this is my confidante and future queen Xue!" As he spoke, he reached out and lifted the bamboo hat from Xue's head.
"No!" Snow said in annoyance.
However, after hearing Buchen's self-introduction, no one was still paying attention to who Xue was and what he looked like, almost all the soldiers around Buchen were scared half to death, without saying a word, after jumping up from the ground with difficulty, they had to salute Buchen!
"See the lord!"
"Okay, okay, you're tired from walking all the way, let's have a good rest first, your general has already gone to feed you Zhang Luo, and there will be fragrant food to eat in a while." Buchen waved his hand and said to them.
"Thank you, Lord for your kindness!"
Despite what he said, the soldiers did not dare to slack off, and they bowed to Buchen's hand again, and then sat down cross-legged on the ground under the command of the officers of all ranks who had "survived".
Buchen felt a little bored, so he praised them a few more words, turned around and took the snow into the Zhuangzi.
The soldiers watched him leave, and they couldn't help but feel a little affectionate to their own lord, they all saw it with their own eyes, although they didn't wear armor, but Buchen did go all the way with them with their mud legs, and when they arrived at the ground, they came to check and comfort them in person, so how could they not be respectful?
"That's the lord and the master! They all look like gods in the sky! Wang Ergen looked at the backs of Buchen and Xue, and sighed sincerely. Compared with these peasants from the countryside, Buchen and Xue's appearance is simply unbelievably high, standing together, just like the legendary gods and fairies, Wang Ergen has lived in this world for more than 20 years, and never thought that someone could be so handsome and beautiful, and he worshipped Buchen at the time.
When a person next to him heard this, he immediately said with a fluttering eyebrow: "That is, if it wasn't for the reincarnation of the immortals, how could the lord break the Jingshi with hundreds of people?" What about the emperor? I think the lord must be the great savior sent by God to rescue my Eastern Kingdom Li Shu! ”
After that, in order to enhance the persuasiveness of his words, the soldier also patted the steel plate armor on his chest, and pointed to the various artillery pieces densely lined up on the village wall and said, "See? If it weren't for the immortals, how could mortals create such a divine armor weapon?! ”
Wang Ergen didn't need him to say it at all, he had already thought so in his heart, and immediately said: "That's right, so fighting for the Lord is fighting for the common people in the world, even if we die on the battlefield, we will die as we deserve!" ”
"Haha, brother, what's your name, let's fall in love like this, why don't you pay homage!" The soldier said with a smile.
……
Unbeknownst to him, the two soldiers under his command had found the faith to fight, and he was staring at a man in the manor's gunpowder workshop.
"Aren't you the zodiac? How did it end up here? He asked inexplicably, he didn't let go after the Huang Daoist was arrested, but he didn't expect the other party to enter the gunpowder workshop he opened in the manor.
After opening the arsenal, Buchen no longer prepared gunpowder by himself, and after teaching a few workers how to do it, he gave them all the work and gave them an independent department, which is the origin of the gunpowder workshop.
"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!" Seeing him ask, the Huang Daoist hurriedly made a joke and said: "Poor Dao is quite interested in gunpowder, so he asked the Snow Maiden to let Poor Dao join here, firstly, to learn some new things, and secondly, to find something to do. ”
"Xue, you just promised him?" Buchen turned his head and asked Xue.
Xue nodded and said, "He promised that as long as he learned how to prepare gunpowder, he would follow you from now on, and I saw that he seemed to be quite sincere, so I agreed to him." ”
Buchen rubbed his forehead, a little sad: "Xue, aren't you afraid that he will learn to prepare gunpowder and pat his ass to flash people?" ”
Unexpectedly, Xue shook her head and took out a marble-sized thing from the small leather bag on her waist.
"What's this?"
Buchen asked curiously.
"His Nedan." Snow answered honestly.
Buchen almost vomited blood when he heard this, and he looked at the Huang Daoist in disbelief: "You really went out in order to learn how to prepare gunpowder!" ”
No matter how ignorant the minister is, he also knows that all people who have cultivated for decades generally have Neidan in their bodies, and this thing is as important to cultivators as the root of life~, and in order to learn the preparation method of gunpowder, Huang Daoist even took out Neidan as a mortgage, which is simply crazy.
"Now you can believe in the poor way, right? Lord! In order to strengthen the tone, the zodiac priest deliberately pronounced the last two words very seriously.
"Believe it, believe it!" Buchen smiled bitterly and waved his hand, "Give Neidan to Xue, don't you want to become an immortal?" ”
"I still want to think about it, but Poor Dao knows the truth that manpower is sometimes poor, and now he is not particularly persistent." The zodiac said.
"Oh, so you're desperate?" He finally understood what was going on.
"And now you've learned how to dispense gunpowder?" Don't ask.
"Back to the lord, the poor road has thoroughly eaten the preparation method of ordinary black ~ gunpowder and granular black ~ gunpowder, and is currently studying the production method of smokeless gunpowder provided by the lord." The Zodiac had a look on his face, maybe his talent in cultivating the truth was very ordinary, but he was gifted with gunpowder, all kinds of powerful, and the previous workers were now completely compared to him, making him the de facto leader of the gunpowder workshop.
