"No way, Old Man Ban, you just said that this wasn't an enemy attack?!”
Jing Tianming didn't believe Master Ban at all and covered his ears with both hands.
"If it was really sent by the Thunderbolt Hall in Jiangnan, wouldn't all the villages within ten miles hear it?!”
"And what kind of thing can make such a loud sound? Even the city of traps can't collapse, right?!”
Jing Tianming shouted.
"Brat, what nonsense are you spouting? Your City of Traps collapsed!”
Master Ban was so angry that his beard trembled.
"Master Ban, what's going on? Is our City of Traps going to collapse?？”
Thief Zhi rolled and crawled in.
"Bah, bah, bah, jinx, your broken house is going to collapse!”
Master Ban glared at him.
"The explosion just now was made by the Jiangnan Thunderclap Hall of the Golden Roll.”
"Thunderbolt Hall of Jiangnan?"
Thief Zhi and Jing Tianming raised their heads and looked at the sky.
The sky was emitting thick smoke and flames!
"What kind of weapon is this? How can it be so powerful?”
Thief Zhi and Jing Tianming looked at Master Ban as if they were waiting for him to answer their questions.
"Uh, this…actually, I don't know either.”
Master Ban said awkwardly.
……
"Protector beast!"
At the same time, Qin soldiers and secret guards clad in black armor immediately surrounded Ying Zheng.
He looked around with bright eyes.
"Imperial Father, you don't have to worry. It's just gunpowder.”
Ying Wuying waved his hand calmly.
"Gunpowder?"
Ying Zheng's hand paused for a moment.
The others also looked at Ying Wuying.
"Dare I ask, Ninth Young Master, is this gunpowder a hidden weapon?”
Even Ge Nia, the successor of Phantom Valley, had never heard of gunpowder before.
Ying Wuying gently swirled the wine in his cup.
"Gunpowder is a kind of powder with explosive power.”
"However, because a certain amount of extraction technology is needed, there are not many people in the nine provinces who can make gunpowder.”
"Moreover, the difference in the purity of the extracted gunpowder will also lead to the power of the final extracted gunpowder being different.”
The hall was silent. Everyone was listening attentively to Ying Wuying.
"In that case, can gunpowder be used in weapons?”
Ying Zheng seemed to have thought of something as he fixed his eyes on Ying Wuying.
"Of course, we can. Just now, the power of the gunpowder released by the Thunderclap Hall in Jiangnan proved it.”
"If this item is used in a battle between two armies, its lethality will be calculated in the hundreds and thousands.”
Ying Wuying seemed to have said it casually, but everyone felt a chill run down their spines.
"Hundreds and thousands…"
Up until now, Great Qin's army had mainly used firearms and other cold weapons.
After each battle, the number of casualties exceeded 1,000, which was already considered quite serious.
However, according to Ying Wuying's words, a single set of gunpowder could cause thousands of casualties.
Then how could they fight? There was no way to fight!
"If Great Qin can obtain gunpowder…"
At this moment, Ying Zheng's eyes lit up as well, and he began to calculate in his mind.
"Father, don't even think about it."
Ying Wuying could tell what Ying Zheng was thinking with a single glance, so he said lazily.
"The gunpowder used by Thunderclap Hall has the highest purity in Nine Regions.”
"Their method of extracting gunpowder is also something that they will never divulge to outsiders. In fact, many outer sect disciples don't even know about it.”
"Even Mr. Gongshu wouldn't be able to do it in 20 years.”
After Ying Wuying finished speaking, he even gave a faint smile.
The hall of Xianyang was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Countless pairs of eyes looked at Ying Wuying with shock.
He actually dared to openly refute the Qin Emperor?
Even Fu Su could not come back to his senses for a moment.
Huhai opened his mouth wide and couldn't close it for a long time.
The wine glass in her hand slipped to the ground.
"…Is that true?"
But unexpectedly, Ying Zheng only frowned.
They were not as angry as they had imagined.
"It's absolutely true. If Imperial Father doesn't believe me, you can find Mr. Gongshu to try.”
Ying Wuying seemed to have predicted Ying Zheng's reaction, as he said slowly.
This time, Ying Zheng's brows furrowed even more clearly, but it was obviously because of the gunpowder.
"It can't be, right? This person contradicted Imperial Father, and Imperial Father actually didn't punish him?!”
Huhai felt that this world was not real at all.
If it were him, even if he had ten thousand guts, he would still be able to do it.
Huhai would never dare to speak to Ying Zheng like Ying Wuying did!
" I didn't expect Ninth Brother to be so bold. He actually dared to question Father in public…"
Fu Su gave Ying Wuying a complicated look.
His evaluation of Ying Wuying had risen to another level.
"Shadowless, how did you know about this?”
Ying Zheng suddenly thought of something and looked at Ying Wuying.
His words made everyone come back to their senses.
That's right. The gunpowder of Thunderbolt Hall was so powerful, but nobody knew about it.
How did Ying Wuying know about this?
"Your son usually likes to chat with people in Xianyang. These things are just what he heard from others in the wine shop.”
Ying Wuying shrugged his shoulders, looking as if he didn't really believe it.
Wine shop, another wine shop!
Everyone didn't know what to say.
“……”
Naturally, Ying Zheng did not quite believe it in his heart. But, after taking a glance at Ying Wuying, no one knew what he was thinking.
He didn't press further.
He had already made up his mind to summon Gongshu Chou after the court session ended and start preparing for the research of gunpowder.
……
Looking at Ying Zheng's expression, Ying Wuying's lips curled into a subtle smile.
His slender and powerful fingers slowly tapped on the table.
As he said, the gunpowder of the Thunderbolt Hall in Jiangnan was not something that anyone could develop.
Very soon, Ying Zheng would come knocking on his door.
Although it sounded a little disgraceful for a son to set up his own father.
However, looking at it from another perspective, weren't they both thinking about Great Qin?
Ying Wuying changed his posture, and the smile on his lips became even more subtle.
"The Thunderclap Hall in Jiangnan has such a powerful weapon!”
In front of the Great Ming Palace, the flames that soared into the sky seemed to have dyed half of the gorgeous glow.
Li Shi Min's eyes were filled with shock.
"Men, hurry to Jiangnan and invite the Thunderbolt Hall Master into the palace!”
Li Shi Min also saw the value of the gunpowder and made up his mind.
No matter what, he had to win over the Thunderclap Hall in Jiangnan!
If this faction could not belong to the Great Tang, then it would be destroyed at all costs!
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
From Li Shiming's tone, he could hear an unprecedented seriousness.
Yuchi Jingde and Qin Qiong immediately left with the order.
"Your Majesty, Sir has arrived."
At this moment, soldiers arrived.
"Sir is here? Alright, alright."
Li Shi Min's eyes lit up and he immediately walked towards the study.
