Chapter 246 Fire Gun
"His brothers died, his enemies died, his women and children died, and they all needed sky burials, which provided the best food for our falcon clan." Zamao Falcon looked at Du Wanwan angrily, "If it weren't for protecting my children, I wouldn't have been caught by your people. Humph! Damn and cunning human."
"I captured you because I want you to live a better life." Du Wanwan looked at the female falcon, "What's your name?"
"Nana!" Zamao roared angrily, "I named my wife after her. She is called Nana."
“Nice name.”
After saying that, Du Wanwan put down the cloth covering the cage and asked Yaya to put Zamao and Nana into the space. Then she looked at the five young falcons and put them all into the space at the moment the cloth was put down.
There are mountains and spiritual springs in this space, and leaving them to Yaya to take care of is the most worry-free way. Once the falcons get used to this place, we can train them to become messengers.
Ye Tingxiao knew that Du Wanwan had already taken the falcon away. In order to prevent his family from finding out, he quickly took out the two cages, gave them to Ye Yier, and put them in the carriage.
Du Xiaoer jumped off the shaft of the cart and followed Ye Tingxiao into the People's Clinic.
It was already dark at this moment, and its appearance was nothing serious, as it would not scare the guests in the clinic. However, it unexpectedly scared Yao Xianqing's housekeeper.
The black wolf recognized him and saw him standing in the clinic, so it rushed up to bite him. Fortunately, Ye Tingxiao shouted quickly, otherwise the butler's arm would have been broken.
"Du Xiaoer! Shut up, that's a guest, a guest! What are you doing? Stop it now!"
Hearing that there was a guest, Du Xiaoer opened his mouth and stopped biting abruptly. The housekeeper stood there, his face pale with fear.
He just stood aside and watched the falcon for a while, and didn't notice that Du Xiaoer suddenly pounced on him as fast as lightning, opened his bloody mouth and revealed his white fangs.
If he really bit down on it, his arm would definitely be shattered.
Du Wanwan in the backyard called out, "Du Xiaoer! Come in!"
Du Xiaoer quickly let go of the housekeeper, shook his head and walked in, and complained as soon as he entered: "He is a bad guy, he came to my house late at night, and I chased him away."
Looking up at her uncle, Du Wanwan gave him a meaningful look, and then comforted Du Xiaoer: "That's my uncle's man."
Yao Xianqing didn't say anything else. The moment he saw Du Xiaoer, a trace of embarrassment appeared in his eyes. It turned out that the wolf trainer was his niece. She understood the animal language and naturally knew that the housekeeper had come to the People's Hospital in the middle of the night.
Being caught by the younger generation is really embarrassing and I feel ashamed.
"It was a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding." Yao Xianqing explained with an awkward smile, "At that time, my uncle wanted to find out why you knew about your mother."
Du Wenjun laughed: "So you sent someone here, and Du Xiaoer saw it? Hahaha! Du Xiaoer has a very good memory. He basically never forgets anyone he has met."
The butler stood aside with an embarrassed expression. He didn't expect that the eldest princess's family actually raised a wolf that could communicate with people.
Yao Meixian came out to invite everyone to eat, and when she saw Du Xiaoer, she touched his head affectionately. Du Xiaoer whimpered like a big wolfdog and licked her hand with his tongue.
Yao Xianqing and the housekeeper were invited to the table, and Ye Tingxiao stayed for dinner.
Yao Xianqing was very excited to sit down and have dinner with her eldest sister for the first time, and so was Yao Meixian. The siblings picked up each other's favorite food and then smiled at each other.
Du Jiang watched silently and felt that his brother-in-law was so good to his wife that he still remembered her preferences after so many years.
After dinner, Yao Xianqing and the housekeeper returned to the inn, planning to check out the next day and stay at his sister’s house.
Yao Meixian was very happy and asked her sons to help clean the room in the evening.
Ye Tingxiao took Du Wanwan to sit on the roof and said, "Dongchen's situation is not optimistic. It may not be easy for my uncle to take back the imperial power."
Du Wanwan glanced at him and ordered, "Take me to the place where I tested the gun that night."
"good!"
Ye Tingxiao picked up Du Wanwan, flew high into the sky, and ran out of the city.
When they arrived at the place and put the person down, Du Wanwan had an old-fashioned hunting rifle in her hand and handed it to Ye Tingxiao.
"My uncle came to Liangjun City and wanted to buy a repeating crossbow, but I refused. If I give this to him, do you think it's appropriate?"
"What is this?" Ye Tingxiao took the shotgun and studied it for a while before understanding it. "Is this also a gun?"
"Yes!" Du Wanwan took the gun back from his hand, pulled the bolt, and pointed it at the small tree next to her. "This gun is not very powerful and not convenient to use, but it has a simple structure and is not difficult to manufacture."
After saying that, he fired a shot, knocking down a few leaves.
Putting down the gun, Du Wanwan handed it to Ye Tingxiao again: "Uncle said that he doesn't want to cause a large-scale war. He just wants to find a weapon that can shock people and force them to abdicate."
"This will indeed reduce many casualties and help us seize power more quickly." Ye Tingxiao agreed with Yao Xianqing's approach, "But how do you explain where this thing came from?"
"No need to explain." Du Wanwan disagreed. "I will tell him clearly and tell him not to ask anything. Making the musket and helping him get his things back will help my mother get rid of her worries. That's all."
Ye Tingxiao held the musket and, imitating Du Wanwan's behavior, fired a shot at a tree. The tree was not seriously damaged, but a few branches were knocked off.
Sitting down, Ye Tingxiao pulled Du Wanwan along and said, "Wanwan! You have to think about this matter carefully and don't act rashly. What you brought out is too shocking. If you don't handle it well, it could be fatal."
"No." Du Wanwan shook her head, "I know what you are worried about. I will ask my uncle to keep it a secret. Not only will I give him the musket, I will also give him the silver ingots.
If you have money and weapons but cannot get back what belongs to you, you are too incompetent. As for the capital of Wei, I will never let them find any clues.
I haven't told anyone except you. You are my man, I trust you unconditionally, and if I don't tell my family, it won't implicate them."
"Wanwan! I'm glad you trust me." Ye Tingxiao hugged her in his arms to block the cold night wind. "You can take all the risks into consideration and make careful and thoughtful arrangements, which is great.
The King of Qi will not give up until he gets the blueprints of the crossbow. If he finds out that the weapon my uncle took away was made by you, I’m afraid he will go crazy and attack you.”
"He doesn't dare. If I die, he won't be able to survive." Du Wanwan curled her lips and sighed slightly, "I'm just afraid that he will attack my family. If that day really comes, I will definitely fight him to the death."
"No, I hope you can protect yourself and take good care of your family." Ye Tingxiao gently patted Du Wanwan's back, "Leave it to me to deal with the King of Qi."
