Now, Wang Qian has lost an arm and can no longer hunt deep in the Death Mountains, nor can she do any physically demanding work.
This means that she will have to rely on her younger brother Wang Qiang to support her from now on, and the burden of their lives will suddenly fall entirely on Wang Qiang's shoulders!
Wang Qiang's breathing became heavy, but his expression remained resolute.
"Sister, don't worry, I can definitely support you! From now on, when I go hunting in the mountains, you can cook here," Wang Qiang said earnestly.
Unexpectedly, Wang Qian grabbed Wang Qiang's arm with her undamaged left hand and said excitedly, "No, you can't go hunting in the mountains! My arm was bitten off while hunting, and hunting is far too dangerous! Besides, there are monsters in the mountains. If you're unlucky enough to run into one, we're both doomed..."
"Qiang, listen to me, just pick mushrooms and wild berries near the settlement. You can survive on just mushrooms and wild berries..."
Wang Qiang knew that Wang Qian was just trying to comfort him.
How could people only eat mushrooms and wild fruits?
These two things are not enough for a person to survive!
Short-term consumption is fine, but if you only eat these two things for a long period of time, you will definitely have problems!
At the same moment, on a large tree on the edge of a refugee settlement.
Dressed in coarse linen clothes, Chen He sat on a tree branch, gazing at the settlement and observing its conditions.
The reason they didn't wear armor was because armor makes a metallic clanging sound when moving, which is too jarring in the mountains and forests and would easily attract attention.
"Around three hundred people, this settlement isn't small..."
Chen He muttered to himself, then nodded in satisfaction and jumped down from the tree.
Chen He prepared to return to Silla City immediately to tell Ye Feng the news.
But just as Chen He was about to leave, his expression suddenly changed.
He noticed an inconspicuous mark on the trunk of a large tree not far away.
If it were someone else, they might not understand the meaning of this symbol, but Chen He was different. Before he pledged allegiance to the Luo family, he was a wandering cultivator who had dealt with all sorts of people and even worked as a mercenary for several years.
So Chen He understood the meaning of this mark at just one glance.
"It seems this settlement has been targeted by someone. I just wonder if the person targeting this place is a mercenary or a city lord," Chen He murmured, a sudden sense of urgency rising in his heart.
Three days have passed.
Luo Lin and Luo Qing, with their dark circles under their eyes, exuded an ethereal aura.
For the past three days, Luo Lin and Luo Qing have barely rested, working non-stop to create the fully automatic explosive rifle.
Fortunately, they were martial artists and could hold on. If they were ordinary people, they probably would have died from overwork and exhaustion!
But Rowling and Luo Qing's hard work has paid off.
They have manufactured two hundred explosive rifles, and all of them have passed the tests.
In this way, Jiang Wei's small legion, which only had two hundred men for the time being, finally had weapons to use.
At this moment, the two hundred Explosive Rifles have been distributed to the soldiers.
The young soldier looked at the weapon in his hand, unable to contain his excitement.
"Sir, what exactly is this thing?"
How do you use this thing?
"Sir, this thing looks like a fire poker, how are we supposed to kill the enemy?"
"Yes, there isn't even a knife on it."
"This thing is called a gun? It's completely different from any other spear I've ever seen!"
The soldiers chatted excitedly, asking all sorts of questions.
Jiang Wei said with a headache, "Shut up, all of you! You are all the first batch of soldiers selected from Xinluo City. You need to be disciplined and well-mannered, you know? Now, you are not allowed to speak without my order!"
So all two hundred soldiers stood at attention, not daring to move.
After these days of training, these soldiers have completed the most basic training tasks such as standing at attention and marching in formation, and the phrase "obey orders in all actions" is deeply ingrained in their bones.
The effect was immediately apparent.
Jiang Wei took out his fully automatic Explosive Flame Rifle, loaded with spirit stone magazines, aimed, and fired a shot.
With a soft bang, the gun vibrated, and a streak of crimson light, about the thickness of an index finger, shot out from the muzzle, spinning rapidly toward the target.
Almost in the blink of an eye, a rock in the distance was hit.
However, the explosive bullets are not powerful enough to shatter or penetrate a rock that is half a person tall.
So the explosive bullet exploded after hitting the rock, creating only a crater the size of a fist.
But this is already quite astonishing!
The two hundred soldiers on the scene were all stunned and speechless. They all stared in amazement at the fully automatic blasting rifle in Jiang Wei's hand, and then they all looked at the guns in their own hands.
After all, the guns they had were exactly the same as the rifle Jiang Wei had, seemingly without any difference.
"As you all have seen, this is the power of the new weapon personally designed by our city lord and manufactured by Madam Rowling and Miss Luo Qing!"
"This new weapon is called the Fully Automatic Blazing Rifle, or Blazing Rifle for short!"
"When firing, we only need to aim at the target using the iron sights on the barrel, and then pull the trigger, just like I do... and we can kill the target from a distance!"
Jiang Wei explained the operation to the soldiers while firing another shot, creating a crater in the rock.
"Look at me, all of you. Did I show you the Blazing Rifles in your hands? The Blazing Rifles we've issued to you don't even come with spirit stone magazines, so you can't use them even if you wanted to!"
"Next, I will explain shooting techniques and the various things you must pay attention to when carrying the Blazing Rifle! The most important thing is that the muzzle must never be pointed at your comrades, and you must keep the gun and ammunition separate during marches and other non-firearm use!"
"You two who are looking around, repeat what I just said, or you'll have to do a hundred squats!"
Night Breeze walked over from a distance, and a broad smile appeared on his face as he watched Jiang Wei training the soldiers.
"Ancestor, what do you think?"
Are you satisfied with the explosive rifle we manufactured?
Rowling and Luo Qing spoke with an ethereal air.
Night Breeze turned to look at them and almost burst out laughing.
"I'm very satisfied. Thank you for your hard work," Ye Feng said earnestly.
“Serving our ancestor is no hardship,” Rowling quickly replied.
"It's not for my benefit, but for our family, for the entire city of Xinluo. This city of Xinluo doesn't belong to me alone, it belongs to you all, and it belongs to everyone," Ye Feng said with a smile.
