Chapter 530 – I might as well tell you that I invented gunpowder.
Chapter 530 – There’s no harm in telling you, I invented gunpowder.
After the knife, there was a brief conversation.
Qin Feng respectfully said, “So you’re General Liaoyuan under King Chu, I’ve heard a lot about you.”
Cang Feilan retrieved the dagger and curiously said, “Your husband knows him?”
How could I possibly know him, it’s just a courtesy on the scene, after all, you just almost took someone’s life, I had to find a way to ease the situation . Qin Feng coughed dryly and said sheepishly, “Who doesn’t know and who doesn’t know the great name of General Liao Yuan, I have naturally heard of him.”
Liao Yuan touched his neck, a faint trace of blood could still be seen at the entry point, he looked towards the valiant woman, both eyes narrowed slightly, the other party had just really tried to kill him!
“polite words will not be necessary, Chu king under the generals spare in the western region does not have much reputation, this point I know in my heart.” Liao Yuan said in a deep voice.
”General, you shouldn’t have many friends if you chat with others like this on a regular basis . Qin Feng’s face stiffened and he dryly laughed, “General is too modest.”
Liao Yuan didn’t say too much and said directly, “Although you saved Huilin City, you still can’t hide the fact that you’re harboring gunpowder.
And hiding gunpowder is a felony, I’m going to take you to see the King of Chu.
Of course, I will also explain to the King of Chu about what happened here, so perhaps I can make your merits and demerits match.”
When Cang Feilan heard this, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her right hand touched the dagger at her waist.
Hearing this, Xiao Bai also said angrily towards Liaoyuan, “You are not allowed to take away brother.”
Liu Jianli, on the other hand, was quietly looking on, his expression as normal.
However, the one who brought the greatest perception of danger to Liao Yuan was none other than this displeased and unruffled woman in white, and he had the illusion that his head was a bit nebulous, as if it would fall off at any time.
A drop of cold sweat slipped off his forehead, Liao Yuan, who was used to seeing life and death, had his palms drenched in sweat.
When the people of Huilin City heard this, they were puzzled, but they also spoke out to criticize, and some even threw vegetable leaves and rotten eggs at Liao Yuan.
“When there was a crisis in the city, you were nowhere to be seen, but now that the crisis has passed, you want to take our benefactor, what is the reason for this?”
“That’s right, get the hell out of Huilin City, we don’t welcome you!”
“What bullshit Chu King’s Army, you only stay inside Chu King City, when have I ever seen you work for the people?”
“We won’t allow you to take Enkong away!”
“That’s right, get lost!”
The group’s excitement grew more and more uncontrollable.
Until one person spoke out, “Stop it!”
The crowd saw the person who spoke and put down the things in their hands.
Qin Feng slapped the vegetable leaves off his body and took out a clean towel from his arms, wiping away the egg liquid from his face.
That’s right, he had been mistakenly injured.
“Eunuch, are you alright?” Someone asked sheepishly, also throwing the rotten egg in his hand to the back without any trace, obviously Qin Feng owed the egg liquid on his face to him.
Qin Feng shook his head, then looked at Liaoyuan and said indifferently, “I’ll go with you to meet the King of Chu.”
“What?!” The crowd could not believe what they were hearing at all.
If hiding gunpowder was really a felony, wouldn’t En Gong be throwing himself into the net?
“However… Someone from your Chu King’s Army has to stay here in case the demons and ghosts invade the city again.” Qin Feng said with a straight face.
Liao Yuan narrowed his eyes and looked straight at Qin Feng, and after a moment, he nodded and said, “Yes.”
The Chu King’s current location was at the place of the Heavenly City where Huilin City had originally intended to seek help.
It was precisely because of this that the Chu King’s army was conquering and patrolling the neighborhood.
As the hooves of the horses rushed, Liao Yuan glanced at Qin Feng and faintly asked, ”Although I did say that the private stash of gunpowder and the saving of Huilin City could be offset by merits and demerits.
But it’s also possible that you can escape a capital offense, but a living offense is hard to avoid, knowing this, why do you still want to go with me to see the King of Chu?
What’s more, with the strength of your two ladies, if they want to take you away, there is nothing I can do.
After all, there’s no way I’m going to joke with the lives of my generals.” Qin Feng’s face stiffened, “General Liao’s words are really a bit scary, do we look like murderous gods?”
After a pause, he then whispered to Cang Feilan, who was driving the horse, “Ma’am, the murderous aura on your body is slightly withdrawn.
Also, don’t put your hand on the dagger, this horse is running a bit bumpy.”
Cang Feilan frowned slightly, but still did as Qin Feng said.
Qin Feng breathed a sigh of relief and asked with a smile, “With General Liao’s strength, he can completely send out his vigor to block those thrown objects.
Why did you remain motionless and suffer in silence?”
Liao Yuan fell into silence and did not answer this question, only after a moment did he seem to have made up his mind, tightened the reins of his horse and said, “You go, leave from this mountain road, I’ll pretend that I haven’t seen you today.”
This is greatly out of Qin Feng’s expectation, he had thought that this general is a sinew, did not expect there is some human feelings.
But he still shook his head and said, “I’m meeting the King of Chu with you, I have something to report to him.
Moreover, I can clearly tell you one thing, I’m carrying gunpowder on me and I’m not violating Emperor Ming’s decree in the first place.”
“What do you mean by that?” Liaoyuan’s brows furrowed.
Qin Feng laughed, “Might as well tell you one thing, this gunpowder was originally invented by me.
Wouldn’t it be reasonable for me to carry around some contraptions of my own invention?”
When the surrounding generals heard this, they all cast astonished gazes.
Liao Yuan quietly looked at Qin Feng, looking at the latter’s look of conviction, and only after a long time did he say, “To be able to perform formations, one should undoubtedly be a Wen Sheng Daolord.
Could it be that all readers are like you and can make up their own minds?
It’s just that, anyway, I’ve already given you the opportunity, what you choose to do is your own business.”
Qin Feng’s face stiffened.
Surprisingly, you don’t believe me?
Where is the most basic trust between people?
Fast horse, safe journey.
The crowd soon arrived at Mingqi City, the heavenly city where the King of Chu was located.
Due to the calamity in the western region, all the major heavenly cities were under martial law, and this Mingqi City was naturally no exception, not to mention that the Chu King who was in charge of the western region at the moment was also in Mingqi City.
Liao Yuan looked at the heavily guarded city gates not far away and reminded for the last time, “The King of Chu emphasizes rules and will definitely not tolerate you hiding gunpowder, leaving now is your last chance.”
Qin Feng glanced sideways and said meaningfully, “I have further changed my opinion of you, you are a good person, lead the way.”
Liao Yuan’s brows furrowed, but he did not say anything more and drove his horse to the front of the group.
With him leading the way, the group could be described as unimpeded, and it wasn’t long before they arrived at the courtyard where the King of Chu was located.
Qin Feng only saw that there was a middle-aged man wearing a battle robe and not angry and powerful sitting on a stone chair next to the stone platform.
It was none other than the Chu King of the Western Region that he had met on the occasion of the Fengtian City’s New Year Ceremony!
The latter lifted his head and looked towards Qin Feng’s group, especially when he saw Qin Feng, a meaningful gaze flowed from his eyes.
Liao Yuan glanced at Qin Feng beside him, and after a slight hesitation, he stepped forward to explain what had happened.
He said a lot about Qin Feng and the others saving Huilin City, while the matter of the hidden gunpowder was lightly touched on
“. Lord Chu, although this person has hidden gunpowder, but those gunpowder were used by him to save the people of Huilin City, perhaps he can offset the credit, I hope that the Lord will be lenient.”
The King of Chu looked at Liaoyuan with a smile on his face, “When did my General of Zhenxi ask for leniency on behalf of someone, there is something interesting about it.
However, do you know who these people are?”
Liao Yuan froze and shook his head, “My subordinate only knows that this person’s surname is Qin, and I don’t know the rest.”
