lnmao.org, the fastest update of the latest chapters of Changan Fengliu!

In the entire mining area, the most powerful master of black powder is known as the "Niu Wuzhi".

This is certainly not the real name. In order to prepare black powder to help mine ore, in this lifetime, "Niu Wuzhi" only has five fingers left, which are irregularly distributed on two hands. He has brought three apprentices, the least one has been with him for 40 years, the youngest one is fifty-eight years old, and so far no one has been a teacher.

Because both the master and the apprentice feel that their skills have not yet been learned.

This group of four masters and apprentices is famous in the Xiangzhou mining area in Ruoda. Because the black powder they prepare every year can increase the output of ore in the mining area several times. From the head of the mine to the ordinary mine friends, no one does not worship them and admire them. It seems that the people of Tang Dynasty are also somewhat aware of the truth that "technology is the primary productive force".

So, Niu Wuzhi and others are really good, of course it means temper. It is said that apart from flint and mining areas, they can't put other things in their eyes. There is no need to talk about any mine chief and mine friends. Even the county magistrate and others in Xiangyang County have to give up their thoughts when talking to them——

You must yell loudly, but not fiercely. Otherwise, if the Niu Five Fingers get angry, they will quit, and the entire Xiangyang County government will be miserable. The iron and copper tribute task assigned by the court will definitely not be handed over.

Of course, these were told to Qin Mubai by the accompanying officials. The name of Niu Wuzhi is so loud that it is almost known to women and children in Xiangyang County. There are often women who frighten the crying child in the middle of the night like this-"Cry again, cry again and let the cow five fingers catch it!"

So the child stopped crying. Try Bailing.

"Xiangyang is really a Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, I didn't think there was such a big man!" Qin Mubai was very happy after hearing it, even if he didn't have gunpowder, he had to meet this "heroic character" who could stop children crying at night.

People saw it.

Nearly eighty years old, an extremely bad and sloppy old man. She was thin and crouched, almost two heads shorter than Qin Mubai. Every trace of skin on the whole body is pitch black, but the few sparse hairs are completely white, and they must have not been cleaned for a long time, and they are mixed together in disorderly locks. Most of the teeth are cut, and one side of the nose is crooked up to the sky. The three fingers of the left hand are like a harpoon, and the **** of the right hand are like a natural victory "V" hand shape. They put together exactly five.

Qin Mubai couldn't help but think of the terrifying monster in "The Lord of the Rings", Guru.

"Niu Wuzhi, this is a high official from the capital, now the great hero of Xiangzhou, the captain general of the military mansion, come to see you personally!" A government officer said loudly to the ear of Niu Wuzhi Roar.

The five fingers of Niu were blank, blinked a few times with dry and muddy eyes, and roared louder than the Ya Ya: "I don't recognize it, don't bother me, I'm very busy!"

Everyone was stunned by him. I didn't expect such a thin and short old man to roar more vigorously than a running horse, like thunder on the ground.

"Niu Wuzhi, you don't know how to praise! The general has something to ask you for help!" The two government officials began to yell at his ears, annoyed him, and separated the left hand harpoon and the right hand triumphantly. Two yamen have a cross on their faces--

"Go away!-or blow your house flat!"

Everyone was dumbfounded, goose bumps fell all over the floor.

"This old man is really sturdy. He has played with black gunpowder all his life. He has been playing with black gunpowder, and his temper is like gunpowder." Qin Mubai couldn't help laughing, and all the government officials laughed.

Although the ears of Niu's five fingers are not good, but seeing the frame of the people in front of him, he must know that he is laughing at him. He didn't say much, and he reached into his pocket and touched it and took out a tube and a half long. , The thick-fingered thing roared: "Aren't you going? The old man killed you guys!"

"Wow!--" The public officials screamed in horror, and the crowd evaded immediately.

Qin Mubai's heart was cold, but he did not escape. Instead, he took out a stack of papers and walked to Niu Wuzhi in a hurry, opened the first page, and showed it to him.

Niu Wuzhi raised his head and glanced at Qin Mubai, who looked like Qin Mubai was his father-killing enemy. Then he glanced at the paper with disdain, suddenly startled and was attracted.

So, his eyes widened, he moved his face to about three centimeters in front of the paper, line by line, looking very carefully. Later, his expression became extremely excited, and he shouted: "Where did it come from?"

Qin Mubai's eardrums hurt when he roared, and he really wanted to escape. Before he could answer, Niu Wuzhi threw the thing in his hand, Harpoon and Victory were about to grab the thing in Qin Mubai's hand.

Fortunately, with quick eyesight and quick hands, this "explosive formula and refining method" in Qin Mubai's hand escaped the attack of the harpoon and victory. Niu Wuzhi was obviously a little angry, but this time he didn't get angry. Instead, he swallowed his saliva and pressed his dry lips, shouting, "Give it to me!"

"Why?" Qin Mubai smiled.

"Except for the old man, no one can match such a black fire thunder!"

"Is this formula very powerful?"

Niu Wuzhi held back his anger and nodded unwillingly: "Yes!"

"It's more powerful than the black fire and thunder you have been thinking about for a lifetime, isn't it?" Qin Mubai agitated him deliberately.

"Then I have to try!" Niu Wuzhi was annoyed, and roared, "Give it to me! I won't live long, time is too expensive!"

"It's okay for you." Qin Mubai slowly folded the paper, put it in his arms, patted his chest, and said, "But you have to do things for me from now on!"

"Okay!" Niu Wuzhi agreed without thinking about it, "As long as the black fire thunder made by this method is really better than what I made myself, I won't do it here. From then on, I will only dispense medicine for you. !"

"Woo—Master Niu, you can't do this!" Several miners in charge heard Niu Wuzhi's roar from a distance, and Qiqiaoshengyan hurried over.

"Stop them!" Qin Mubai gave the order, and all the government officials rushed forward and drew their knives. The mine managers had to look at this side anxiously, as if what Qin Mubai was about to take away A bad old man, but a sweet wife who is about to accompany them into the bridal chamber.

"Is it settled, Niu Wuzhi?" Qin Mubai smiled at him.

"Stop talking nonsense, get the recipe! I won't live in vain in my life if I can make such a black fire thunder! I don't care about the others! I must speak, or I will be in hell. Lao Hao uses an iron hook to hook his tongue!"

This is a very vicious oath for an old man who is going to die.

So Qin Mubai nodded and said: "Bring your apprentices, tools and materials, and follow me."

"Okay! I'll call them right away!" Niu's five fingers responded loudly, and turned around, shoving away the crowd like a rabbit and jumping into the grass, instantly disappearing. After a while, he appeared in front of Qin Mubai with three old men with white hair, dragged two mule carts piled up like a mountain, and said: "Let's go, get ready!"

"You are quite refreshing. Let's go!" Qin Mubai laughed and was about to leave with a group of people. The people in the mining area were so dumbfounded that they almost knelt on the ground and cried out-as soon as the Niu Wuzhi left, wouldn't this be exhausting them? They dare to rush to work day and night, and there is no previous progress.

"I will make clear to the governor's mansion and let the mansion lower your mission. Don't worry, I won't embarrass you." Qin Mubai dropped this sentence and walked away.

The people in the mining area finally took a reassurance pill and settled down.

"Hey, this is a high-ranking official! A casual sentence will allow us to change between life and death!"

Qin Mubai rented a farmyard in a remote place on the outskirts of the country as a "research institute" for Niu Wuzhi and others. The tools, equipment, and other things that should be prepared, the five fingers of the cow were all packed, and the two mule carts were loaded with a lot of things, unloaded and piled up the entire yard.

"The official, I sent two people to run errands, cook for our old man, wash clothes and clean the latrines, give some money to buy materials, and you don’t need to control the others." Niu's five fingers arrogantly said, "Ten. Within days, give you new gunpowder!"

"Ten days?" Qin Mubai frowned.

"If you have the ability, you can invite others! I can't figure it out for a year!" Niu Wuzhi roared angrily.

"Okay, ten days is ten days. It's delicious and good to drink. The money is enough, you just have to work hard to dispense the medicine." Qin Mubai smiled, "Would you like a woman?"

"Go--!!!"

Qin Mubai left two government officials to serve these old men and returned to the governor's mansion. Then secretly sent a few confidantes in the mansion to protect and track them in secret. The formula of this new gunpowder is tantamount to a "big killer" in this era. If it is left outside, it will be like the disappearance of nuclear weapons, which will definitely cause panic and threats.

Then Qin Mubai replied to Li Ke and said that after ten days, depending on the situation, he decided to explore the West Channel twice.

"It is best to unearth the secrets there within two or three months." Li Ke said, "Because during this time, you can just go back and forth to the capital. By then, there may be a court. The messengers of Wu Meiniang and Gao Yang may also be there. The fewer people we disturb, the better."

"Okay, I see. Then, see you in ten days. I'll go back to the military mansion first, Niu Wuzhi, you need to send someone to stare at." Qin Mubai said.

"Okay." Li Ke agreed with a solemn expression.

It seems that he values ​​the secrets of Xihecao Li very seriously. It was about the royal family, his mind was united like never before, and he was very concerned.

"Then I will go first."

"Don't worry." Li Ke stopped him suddenly and said, "There is someone who has stayed with me forever, and you don't say anything about how to deal with it. Isn't this embarrassing me?"

"You mean, Zhang Tong?" Qin Mubai frowned.

"That's not it." Li Ke sighed softly. "This kid was under house arrest by me in the backyard. He eats and drinks less and squats in the corner without saying anything. If he keeps on like this, he will die in a few days. Nothing. Although he was hateful when he was a rapist, it was pitiful to see his appearance. When asked what he wanted, he only said that he wanted to see General Qin once, saying that he had met you. I'm at ease when I die."

Qin Mubai felt a faint pain in his heart, but his face was cold: "He still has the face to see me?"

"Forget it. People are about to die, and the words are good, why don't you go there?" Li Ke said, "For any reason, he has been with you for so long, and he has worked hard before."

"You have already pleaded for him, then see you!"

So, Qin Mubai came to the courtyard where the servants lived in the backyard, and the guard in charge opened a firewood room.

The room was messy, full of firewood and grass, and the light was dim and smelly. Zhang Tong was dirty and messed up like a beggar, shrunk in the haystack in the corner, not knowing whether he was asleep or dead, and even Qin Mubai didn't react when he walked up to him.

Qin Mubai kicked him lightly, and Zhang Tong flicked all over, finally waking up.

"This vigilance is gone, are you still Baiqi?" Qin Mubai said coldly.

Zhang Tonglun looked at Qin Mubai blankly with his eyeballs, and muttered: "It must be a dream, it must be a dream!"

"Dream!" Qin Mubai yelled, "Zhang Tong listens to the order!"

"No!" Zhang Tong bounced instantly like a spring, standing upright.

"Go back to Chang'an and go back to your hometown!" Qin Mubai scolded.

Zhang Tong was startled, and his whole expression froze. He opened his mouth, but did not dare to speak.

Because Qin Mubai did not speak, his subordinates did not dare to speak nonsense. Qin Mubai said: "If there is any fart, let it go."

"General, you...you won't kill me or punish me?"

"Nonsense. Let you go, you go!"

"You...you beat me or scolded me!" Zhang Tong suddenly burst into tears and choked up, "Subordinates please! You must either kill me or make me beat me severely. I have a meal and want me to scold me to death!"

Qin Mubai looked at him and said indifferently: "You are not guilty of death, and I don't have to kill you. As for beating and scolding, since you already know where you are wrong, why should I do more?"

"General...you are like this, it makes me feel more embarrassed than killing me, beating me and scolding me!" Zhang Tong's tears flowed down like this, "I really... didn't expect it!"

"Stop talking nonsense, let's go!" Qin Mubai said coldly, "From then on, I forgot that you are Baiqi, and I forgot to know someone from Qin. Baiqi will also forget that there was Zhang Tong in the army. This person."

After that, Qin Mubai turned around and left.

"General!!..." Zhang Tong fell to his knees with a horrible thump.

"I beg you!-you kill me!"

"I won't kill you." Qin Mubai dropped this sentence and left.

I said in my heart, it's like, even if my hands and feet have disgusting sores, I will not give up on my hands and feet.
