In the pavilion of the garden, the old man greeted Zhao Hao with a faint smile on his face, as if he were an old friend.
This behavior was beyond Zhao Hao's expectations.
This is very much like a high-ranking official in the Central Plains dynasty. I didn't expect that in this wild side, with a completely different culture, it would be like this.
Zhao Hao bowed slightly and said, "Zhao Hao greets the Great Pillar State!"
His previous guess was correct, this person was indeed Zhuoya's father's immediate superior.
One of the two great pillars of the wilderness.
Su Lai.
He found this out from his elder brother-in-law Zhuoli.
Su Lai pointed at the young man standing with Zhuoli and said, "This is my youngest son. Has he not caused any trouble to Master Zhao these days?"
Zhao Hao shook his head: "Great Pillar State, you are too kind! By the way, shall we start now?"
Su Lai smiled and said, "Don't be anxious, Mr. Zhao. Come over and have a cup of tea first."
Zhao Hao didn't know why, and he didn't go over to drink tea. He still knew his place.
Although this great pillar of the country appeared to be very cultured, he did not understand the other party.
Judging from the reminder from Zhuoli, the current situation is probably just superficial.
After waiting for about half an hour, Su Lai finally stood up and said, "Mr. Zhao, you can start now. My garden is big enough and very suitable."
Zhao Hao nodded: "Enough."
Then he turned to Zhuoli and said, "Have someone take the bomb to an open area, light the fuse with fire, and then leave quickly!"
Zhuoli nodded, then immediately ordered a subordinate behind him, who immediately took out a bomb from the box, held it carefully in both hands, and walked to an open space in the distance.
Someone else brought a torch.
The man took the torch, lit the fuse, and immediately turned and ran.
However, before he could run five steps, he heard a "bang" and the bomb exploded instantly.
Then, there was a scream.
The man who lit the fuse was blown to the ground, with blood all over his back, where he was injured by the broken tiles.
As for the place where the explosion occurred, only a small pit, not too deep, was left.
Seeing the explosion, everyone gasped and showed excitement on their faces at the same time.
Then he walked quickly towards the explosion site.
After looking at the explosion site, he went to look at the soldier who was still lying on the ground screaming.
The back of it looked like a blood gourd.
After watching it, everyone was even happier and started shouting loudly.
This is a thunder bomb. They, the barbarians, suffered a great loss at the hands of this thing last year.
Now, they have it too.
How could this make them unhappy?
However, among the crowd, only Su Lai frowned slightly.
Because he was the one who led the army when they attacked Daganmu North City last year.
He had witnessed the power of the bomb with his own eyes.
It's simply destroying the world.
However, the power of the thunder bomb in front of him was much weaker than the one used by Da Gan last year.
Seeing his expressionless face, all the people who were extremely happy calmed down.
His youngest son walked over and asked in a barbaric language for a while. Su Lai did not say anything but looked at Zhao Hao.
Zhao Hao bowed slightly and said, "Great Pillar State, is there any problem?"
Su Lai said, "Mr. Zhao, the power of the thunder bombs you made now is much different from the thunder bombs used by the Dagan Army, isn't it?"
Zhao Hao immediately asked in confusion: "Didn't you tell the Grand Secretary the reason?"
"I've said it before, the materials you prepared are not of good quality, so the thunder bombs you made will naturally be less powerful."
Su Lai frowned and said, "Isn't this a little weak?"
Zhao Hao said calmly: "There is no other way. With the existing materials, we can only do this much."
"If you want to increase its power, you have to replace it with better materials."
Su Lai asked, "Is there no other way?"
Zhao Hao shook his head: "There is no other way, Great Pillar State, you said before that as long as I build the thunder bomb, you will let me go."
"Now, I have given you the method of thunderbolt, and I have made it myself. Can you fulfill your promise?"
When Su Lai heard this, his expression suddenly changed, but he quickly returned to his normal smiling expression.
"Why is Mr. Zhao in such a hurry?"
"You have finally come to our Savage King's Court. Why don't you stay here for a while and have some fun and see what's going on?"
"Our wild scenery is completely different from your southern country."
“The customs and practices are also very different.”
“It’s also good to have a good experience!”
"Don't you have a saying in the South that a good man travels far and wide? Another saying is that reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles."
"You don't have many chances to come to our wilderness."
Zhao Hao's eyes flickered, and he asked, "Is the Great Pillar State going to break his promise?"
Upon hearing this, Su Lai couldn't help but smile softly, but there was an obvious hint of sarcasm in his smile.
He waved his hand, and immediately two soldiers came over and took Zhao Hao away by force.
Everyone present, including Zhuoli, stood where they were, not daring to even breathe.
Zhao Hao was taken directly out of the garden and then escorted back to his residence, where he continued to be closely guarded by a group of soldiers.
On the way back, Zhao Hao heard two explosions in succession.
He did not resist at all. Listening to the two explosions behind him, he just sneered in his heart.
He was not surprised at all when the other party broke his promise.
However, I still couldn't help feeling annoyed.
He returned to the stone house, sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it down in gulps.
Zhao Hao muttered to himself, "It's been so long, someone should be here to rescue us soon, right?"
In the current situation, let alone all his tricks, even if he had a plane, he probably wouldn't be able to escape.
This is the Savage King's Court, so I won't mention how strictly guarded it is.
Even if you give him a horse now and let him run for three days, he will not be able to escape when the barbarians start chasing him.
For now, relying on himself to find a solution is definitely impossible.
He could only wait for someone to rescue him.
In fact, his calculations were quite accurate. After dinner, Zhuoli came back and scolded him severely.
He just treated it as a dog fart and didn't take it seriously, then he lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
But in the middle of the night, he suddenly heard a few muffled groans outside.
He suddenly opened his eyes, woke up and sat up from the bed, and the door of the stone house was forcefully pushed open from the outside.
Immediately afterwards, four men in black rushed in with steel knives.
Seeing Zhao Hao, one of the men in black quickly whispered, "Lord Zhao, we are here to rescue you on orders."
"Sir, please follow us and leave!"
Zhao Hao’s eyes widened immediately. He had never expected that the rescue would come so quickly.
Just thinking about it during the day, it comes at night!
It’s like making your wish come true, isn’t it?
