It was not the first time Xiao Qiao was captured. When she was sixteen, Sun Ce conquered Wan City and took the two sisters in with Zhou Yu.
Therefore, after being caught by Liu Jue, Xiao Qiao naturally wondered if Liu Jue would take over her and Qin Shi.
After all, in this world, it was very common for the winner to take the wife and daughter of the loser. Cao Cao often did this, and so did his son Cao Pi.
Xiao Qiao and Qin Shi discussed that if Liu Jue wanted to do anything to them, they would rather die than lose their chastity.
To Xiao Qiao's surprise, Liu Jue never came to her again after the first time he met her. He seemed to be uninterested in her and Qin Shi.
This made Xiao Qiao heave a sigh of relief. At the same time, she was looking forward to Zhou Yu's arrival.
Xiao Qiao had been anticipating this in her heart, but reality had given her a hard blow.
As the days passed, people finally came from River East. However, what made Xiao Qiao feel cold was that only Zhou Yu's mother and two sons were taken away.
The greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.
At this moment, Xiao Qiao felt that she was very silly and naive.
A woman who had been captured for more than a month was no longer innocent in the eyes of her husband.
Zhou Yu held a high position in River East. Why would he want a woman who had lost her chastity?
Xiao Qiao's mood instantly hit rock bottom.
She thought about how she had protected Zhou Yu's chastity, but Zhou Yu had ignored her and only took away his mother and son. She could not help but hate Zhou Yu.
There was no greater sorrow than a dead heart. Xiao Qiao felt that she had no one to rely on.
Today, Qin Shi's suicide had crushed her and she fainted on the spot.
After she woke up, Xiao Qiao was thinking about the same question. Should she die or continue to live?
Thinking of Zhou Yu's ruthlessness, Xiao Qiao felt that there was no need for her to risk her life for such a man. Moreover, her daughter was still around.
Even if it was for her, he had to live well.
Therefore, when Liu Jue suggested feeding her medicine, Xiao Qiao hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
Liu Jue carried the bowl of medicine and sat by the bed. He lowered his head and said to Xiao Qiao,""After you drink this bowl of medicine, obediently recuperate. In the future, you can live here in peace. I will take good care of you.”
"Thank you, my lord!" Xiao Qiao looked up at Liu Jue.
Although this man was young, his face was somewhat mature. His gaze was like a sharp sword, and there was a faint masculine aura about him.
In particular, his every move was filled with unparalleled confidence. This confidence made Xiao Qiao feel very at ease.
Xiao Qiao had already understood the situation. She understood that Zhou Yu had abandoned her, so she had to cut off her past with Zhou Yu.
"Let me help you up!"
Liu Jue was somewhat happy. He immediately stretched out an arm and pulled Xiao Qiao into his arms, letting her lean against his chest. Then, he slowly fed her the medicine.
Xiao Qiao seemed very obedient. She leaned against Liu Jue's chest and felt inexplicably at ease.
After Xiao Qiao drank the medicine, Liu Jue did not leave immediately. Instead, he stayed behind to talk to her. However, she was a little weak, so she fell asleep after a while.
Liu Jue instructed the servant girl to take care of Xiao Qiao and left.
At this moment, the saltpeter, sulfur, and charcoal that Liu Jue needed were also found. He immediately had people grind them into powder and then mix the three things according to the ratio.
Now that the black gunpowder was ready, the next step was to make the earth mine.
Liu Jue found an earthen jar to use as a container. Then, according to the production method, he put the black gunpowder and other materials into it.
After spending two hours, he finally finished making this earth thunder. It looked very rough, but he wondered how powerful it was.
Liu Jue found an open space and let a pawn ignite the earth mine while he stood dozens of meters away.
The soldier followed Liu Jue's instructions, took out a lighter, lit the fuse of the earth mine, and then quickly ran to the side.
The fuse burned neither fast nor slow. When the soldier ran more than 30 meters away, the fuse burned out. After another five or six seconds, the earth mine exploded with a bang.
Accompanied by a deafening explosion, a flame soared into the sky. The flame was about twenty to thirty meters high, and even the ground shook a few times.
The soldiers around Liu Jue had never seen such a scene before. They were all so scared that their faces turned pale.
The soldier who had lit the fire earlier was so frightened by the explosion that he staggered, not knowing what had happened behind him.
"Lord…Lord, could this be the heavenly lightning in the hands of an immortal?”A soldier beside him said in a trembling voice.
It was no wonder that they were so afraid. After all, people in this era did not even know what thunder and rain were. Now that they suddenly saw such a guy, it was impossible for them not to be afraid.
"There are no immortals in this world. Didn't you see it just now? I made this thing.”Liu Jue laughed loudly. Although his eardrums were hurting from the shock, he was still quite satisfied with the power of the earth lightning.
The soldiers had indeed seen the process of Liu Jue making the earth mine, but they did not understand the principle behind it. The mixture of saltpeter, charcoal, and sulfur could actually produce a power comparable to heavenly lightning.
"However, the name 'earth mine' is too unpleasant to hear. In the future, this thing will be called a thunderbolt.”Liu Jue quickly thought of a name.
The Thunderbolt Bullet was used to deal with the Cao Army. Liu Jue did not expect it to kill anyone. As long as he threw the Thunderbolt Bullet into the crowd when fighting with the Cao Army, he would be able to scare the Cao Army into peeing.
"I'm going too far. With the iron saber and the thunderbolt bullets, this Cao Jun is probably not going to make it back.”Liu Jue thought maliciously.
Then, Liu Jue made a Thunderbolt Bullet and called Zhuge Liang and the others over to demonstrate.
Zhuge Liang and the others looked at the big jar with a puzzled expression. However, when the thunderbolt bomb exploded, they were also shocked.
"Young General, what…what is this?”Gan Ning, who had always been bold, couldn't help but gulp.
Liu Jue said to the crowd," This thing is called Thunderbolt Bullet. I made it to deal with Cao Cao's army. What do you think?"”
"With such a divine item, even if Cao Cao had thousands of troops, he would still be defeated!" Pang Tong said in shock.”
Zhuge Liang pondered for a moment and asked," Young General, I once read in an ancient book that during the Warring States Period, some alchemists made elixirs. There was an explosion in the furnace. Could it be that the same thing happened with the thunderbolt bomb?"”
" That's right," Liu Jue said with a smile." The most important thing in Thunderbolt Bullet is black gunpowder. It's a mixture of saltpeter, sulfur, and charcoal." In fact, this was something that the necromancers had unintentionally created. However, even they themselves did not realize the use of this thing. They were only focused on refining that illusory immortal pill.”
When Zhuge Liang and the others heard this, they could not help but look at each other. They did not expect such a powerful thing to be invented by those alchemy methods.
