Chapter 101: Gunpowder Looted!
Although the two of them didn't talk loudly, Xu Feng'er was also very far away.
But after all, she is a fourth-grade martial artist, her ears and eyes are sensitive, even if she is a few feet away, but under the deliberate pricking up of her ears to listen, she still hears a few words, especially gunpowder, which aroused Xu Feng'er's great interest.
She didn't know what gunpowder was, but guessed that it should be quite important to Li Changfeng.
After Zhang Haihui left and Li Changfeng rested, Xu Feng'er found a reason to leave the mansion and go to the contact point to deliver the news to the Fengtian Society.
Not long after she left, Li Changfeng, who was sitting in the study and looking at a book of golden scales that was not in the pool, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a smile.
Xu Feng'er just hurriedly left a letter at the contact point, and did not dare to stay longer.
The capital is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and it is also the key supervision place of the East Factory, even if it is Fengtian, it can be said that it is difficult to move an inch in the capital.
Through people who seem to be unknowns, through layers of unknown special channels, the letter finally fell into the hands of the Feng master who was recuperating in a mysterious mansion in the capital.
At this time, Feng Shi's face was unhealthily pale, and even his hair turned a lot grayer, and in just a few days, he aged several years at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Since he was attacked by artillery outside Baishi City that day, Rao is an outstanding martial arts cultivator who can be called an outstanding martial arts cultivator in today's rivers and lakes, and he is also nine deaths, almost dying on the spot.
In particular, the mysterious cannon was so powerful that even she couldn't resist it head-on several times, and with the special secret method of burning internal force, under the first round of artillery attacks, she finally escaped with the seriously injured and dying Ziyang.
This is also fortunate that the evacuation was fast enough, otherwise the second round of bombardment that followed would have fallen, let alone her, even if the Great Grandmaster of the First Rank came, she would definitely die, and her bones would be broken on the spot.
Although it was not easy to escape under the bombardment of mysterious artillery, it was just that Feng Shi did not dare to slack off, and first swallowed the high-grade elixir he carried with him to heal his injuries, so that he would not faint from being seriously injured on the spot, otherwise in the mountains and forests full of miasma and countless evil beasts, he would inevitably be more auspicious, not to mention that he would not be able to stay with a comatose Ziyang.
She did not hesitate to fight for the price of martial arts cultivation and spent her strength and mental strength, so she rushed to the mysterious stronghold of the Wasteland overnight.
The moment he arrived, Feng Shi fainted on the spot, and it was the Fengtian Society that saved his life with the best medicine and the famous doctors in the rivers and lakes.
After recuperating in the wasteland for several days, Feng Shi has recovered a lot, but he is far from reaching the peak, and it will take at least a month to recover most of it.
Moreover, this time, the Feng master used the secret method and hurried overnight, which can be described as an injury on top of injury, and there is no two or three years, and he can't think of a complete recovery.
But after knowing that Emperor Qianwu had returned to Beijing, she had to return to Beijing overnight.
And there are some quite important things that need to be reported to the elders of the Fengtian Society.
Opening the letter from Xu Feng'er, Feng Shi's expression condensed slightly: "Gunpowder? ”
There was a hint of doubt in her eyes: "What is this, why have you never heard of it?" ”
"Could it be a medicinal herb?"
Ziyang was also by his side, but his face was extremely pale, and he finally picked up a small life, and his body was still extremely weak, but it was about Xu Fenger's news, and he was also quite nervous.
It's just that the letter involves important content, and Rao can't even read it face-to-face as Ziyang, but the status of Fengshi is high enough to be able to say one or two.
Feng Shi shook his head: "Impossible, there are no medicinal materials that cannot be bought in the capital, and I have never heard of such medicinal materials." ”
Although Feng Shi didn't dare to say that he knew all the drugs in the world, at least seven or eight times out of ten, he still had confidence.
At this time, Feng Shi noticed the word "fire" in it, and couldn't help but think of the terrible scene when she and Ziyang were shelled in Baishi City that day.
At that time, the black iron pipes on the city wall were sprayed with fire, and when they landed, they were thunderous, and the power was amazing.
Could it be that the thing that has the power to destroy the world is gunpowder?
I'm afraid that only such a terrifying weapon of Zhenguo will Li Changfeng let a henchman like Zhang Haihui go to Baishi City in person.
Intuition told the Feng Master that this was very possible.
After pondering for a while, Feng Shi immediately decided: "No matter what gunpowder is, since Feng'er has specially delivered the news, and it involves the mysterious Nine Emperor Princes, we in Fengtian Society must find an opportunity to snatch it back and find out!" ”
Ziyang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it!" ”
After speaking, Ziyang took two steps, but stopped again, hesitated and asked, "Master Feng, has my junior sister ever mentioned me?" ”
Feng Shi's face was slightly gloomy: "Ziyang, you and your junior sister have a heavy responsibility, how can you always think about your children's private affairs?" ”
"Ziyang knows."
Ziyang's expression suddenly became gloomy, and he felt that there was a boulder pressing on his chest, which was very uncomfortable.
Who is Li Changfeng, he knows in his heart that Feng'er is always by his side, how can he please him?
Maybe it's already ......
Thinking of this, Ziyang couldn't help but feel a sharp pain in his heart, and his face turned pale.
Seeing this scene, Master Feng sighed secretly in his heart, his expression became a lot more relaxed, and comforted: "Ziyang, your junior sister has a strong temperament, she will be fine, you don't have to worry too much, when he is done, there will be a time to meet, why rush for a while?" ”
"Ziyang understands."
Obviously, the comfort of the Feng Shi did not do much.
After Ziyang left, Feng Shi came to the window, overlooking the majestic and gorgeous palace, and sighed for a long time.
At the beginning, in Baishi City and in the Wasteland, none of them could assassinate Emperor Qianwu.
Now that Emperor Qianwu has returned to the heavily guarded and masterful palace, it is even more difficult to assassinate him.
How difficult is it to overthrow the great cadres and recover the former dynasty?
After only a moment of decadence, Feng Shi regained his fighting spirit, and his eyes became firm again.
"As long as Feng'er is still by the side of the Nine Emperor Princes, we still have a chance!"
"Dog Emperor, I must kill you!"
……
After ordering Zhang Haihui to go back to Baishi City, Li Changfeng did not rest, but got busy, contacting Yaxing to find suitable shops to carry out Honey Snow Ice City, refined salt, beer and barbecue.
On the other hand, since coming to the capital, Li Changfeng has painfully found that the capital is a food desert, and compared to the Diandude of Baishi City, the so-called food in the capital is not even a little worse.
These days, he tastes like chewing wax in the capital, and he really can't stand it.
He immediately sent a message to the chef of Dian Dude to take care of his food.
Considering that the ingredients of Daqian were too simple and the types of vegetables were too scarce, Li Changfeng decided to grow vegetables by himself.
Of course, simple planting didn't mean anything to him, and his idea was to directly build a vegetable greenhouse.
It is now summer, and when autumn and winter come, there will be no fresh vegetables to eat in the whole Daqian.
His greenhouse, on the other hand, produces a steady stream of fresh vegetables.
This will definitely be a shocking existence for the cadres who are extremely backward in agricultural technology.
You must know that in the autumn and winter, even the richest people, even His Majesty the Emperor today, can only eat some dried vegetables and pickled vegetables.
When that time comes, not only can he eat fresh vegetables, but he can also sell them at a high price to the dignitaries and nobles in the capital who are stupid and rich, and he will be ruthlessly struck with a sum of wool.
Li Changfeng immediately sent people to buy fertile land on the outskirts of the capital.
On this day, Li Changfeng was leisurely lying in the shade of a big tree in the mansion to enjoy the coolness, when suddenly a subordinate came to report.
"Your Highness, something is wrong!"
The person who came was Wu Yong, a powerful subordinate brought by Li Changfeng from the City Lord's Mansion in Baishi City, who was loyal to him and was responsible for liaison with Zhang Haihui.
Li Changfeng said: "What's the matter?" ”
Wu Yong said with a solemn expression: "Your Highness, I just got a secret report that Commander Zhang was attacked by masked thieves on the way to Shangzhou. The masked thief's purpose is very clear, that is, the goods on the car, although there is a thunder rider desperately to protect him, but he still loses a few boxes! ”
Regarding Zhang Haihui's delivery of goods as gunpowder, it is a confidential matter, and Wu Yong does not know, only knows that it is an important cargo.
After all, when it comes to gunpowder, the less people know about it, the better.
"Were there any casualties?"
"Nope!"
"That's fine." Li Changfeng breathed a sigh of relief, although gunpowder was important, but for him, Zhang Haihui and Lei Qi were the most important.
Whether it is Zhang Haihui or Lei Qi, he has worked hard to cultivate, so he naturally doesn't want accidents.
As for the manufacture of gunpowder, even if the bandits stole it, it may not be possible to make it.
And it is not necessarily that these bandits will be able to steal the gunpowder and go back without any problems.
Li Changfeng immediately said: "Pass the order, let Zhang Haihui strengthen his vigilance, and be sure to ensure the safety of the goods!" ”
Wu Yong nodded solemnly: "The villain obeys orders!" ”
At this moment, Li Changfeng's three maids came over with a smile.
Xu Feng'er was holding a basin of cold water that had just come out of a deep well, soaked in seasonal melons and fruits, Xiaotong was carrying a pot of tea, and Bingbing was holding a pu fan.
Li Changfeng waved his hand at Wu Yong: "You go down." ”
Wu Yong nodded and left.
Xiaotong saw Li Changfeng's brows tightened, so he smiled and asked, "Your Highness, why are you worried?" ”
As he spoke, he pulled Li Changfeng to the recliner and lay down, kneading Li Changfeng's head very naturally, and Bingbing gently shook the pu fan.
Xu Feng'er put down the basin, took out the seasonal melons and fruits in it, lowered her head and pricked up her ears.
It seems that there is something hidden involved.
Li Changfeng didn't hide it, and said with some annoyance: "A batch of goods escorted by Zhang Haihui was stolen by thieves. ”
Hearing this, Xu Feng'er was immediately taken aback and said: "What kind of person is so bold to rob His Highness's things, it's really bold!" ”
Although she said this, she actually knew it, and thought that nine times out of ten, it was done by the Feng master who got her news.
It's just that what is that thing called gunpowder, which can make the people of the Fengtian Society make such a big move to rob a prince?
Now is a good time to find out.
Xu Feng'er looked very confused, and said, "Your Highness, what kind of goods is it?" Is it important? ”
Bingbing and Xiaotong glanced at Xu Feng'er at the same time, with a sense of warning, and the latter seemed to have just reacted, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Your Highness, I'm sorry, it's the slave who is talking too much." ”
"There is no need to be so restrained here in this prince, since you can say it, I believe you. However, it is difficult to explain what the goods are, but they can only be said to be very important. ”
Li Changfeng sighed lightly, did not say what kind of goods it was, and whispered to himself: "It's strange, except for the people from the scientific research institute and the henchmen of this prince, outsiders don't know about that batch of goods at all, how did the robbers know?" ”
Although he didn't mention gunpowder, Xu Feng'er heard the latter words clearly, thinking that it should be the mysterious thing called 'gunpowder', and there were very few people who knew about gunpowder, and they were all extremely important people, so he immediately understood the importance of gunpowder, and secretly congratulated himself for delivering the news in time.
This made her even more curious about the specific purpose of the gunpowder.
Bingbing and Xiaotong were very well-behaved, and they never asked Li Changfeng about things that Li Changfeng didn't want to say, so they didn't ask any more.
Even though Xu Feng'er was anxious, she was helpless.
After a while, Li Changfeng, who had been frowning, stood up suddenly: "No, this prince has to go in person!" ”
Hearing that Li Changfeng was going, Bingbing and Xiaotong immediately said that they wanted to go together.
"Your Highness, the slave will come with you!"
"yes, you can't have no one around to take care of you!"
Xu Feng'er wanted to follow Li Changfeng to find out the information, so naturally she was not far behind, and immediately said: "Your Highness, let's go with you!" ”
Li Changfeng shook his head: "No, this matter is urgent, this prince has to go all out, it is inconvenient for you to travel with you, and the road is far away and bumpy, it is better for you to stay in the mansion." So it was decided. ”
Seeing that he made such a decision, Bingbing and Xiaotong naturally complied, although Xu Feng'er wanted to follow him very much, she could only endure it.
Li Changfeng immediately ordered to prepare for the car, briefly packed his luggage, and set off half an hour later.
