Chapter 470: Improved Bayonet
Sheng Ze said seriously, "Because this matter is too dangerous, I thought I should tell you in advance."
Shen Qingqian looked at his overly cautious appearance, and for some reason, she felt a little sad.
Her tone softened a bit. "My eldest brother is already an adult. He knows what he should and shouldn't do. As his younger sister, I have no right to decide for him."
After saying that, Shen Qingqian asked curiously, "What kind of weapon is it and why is it dangerous?"
Sheng Ze avoided her gaze and said thoughtfully, "I just happened to remember that my master's furnace exploded several times when he was refining the elixir. My master named the thing that caused the furnace explosion gunpowder. Now that the war is at a stalemate and it is very unfavorable to us, I thought that maybe I could use gunpowder to change the situation."
In fact, after the master extracted the gunpowder, he once said, "This thing is both good and bad, and must be used with caution."
Shen Qingqian: ""
She didn't know what to say. Shengze's brain worked so fast, how could others live?
This world has indeed not yet developed the use of gunpowder. So far, only cultivators like Master Shengze know that the occasional explosion of the furnace during alchemy is due to a problem with the ratio.
But I didn’t expect that Shengze’s master had already refined gunpowder.
"What is gunpowder?" After Shen Qingqian was lost in thought, she couldn't help but ask again, just to put on a complete show.
Sheng Ze looked back and saw the deliberately pretended curiosity in her eyes. He couldn't help laughing, but he still explained the basic situation of gunpowder.
This girl, who grew up in such a world, how could she not know about gunpowder? This shows how good she was at acting in front of him before. If it weren't for that dream, he might never have known her lovely side.
"I see. No wonder you said it was dangerous." Shen Qingqian's face showed just the right amount of worry. "But this matter still depends on my eldest brother's decision. Although gunpowder is dangerous, if it can really be used in combat, it will be a great achievement."
The implication is that the Shen family might lose their status as exiles because of this incident.
Sheng Ze suppressed his laughter and nodded, "Yes, as long as Brother Shen is more careful, there will generally be no problem."
The two of them were about to separate after talking here, but Shen Qingqian and Sheng Ze didn't move.
Shen Qingqian felt that Sheng Ze had to deliberately find her to tell her about such a thing, which showed how cautious he was in maintaining their relationship. She felt a little sad for some reason and didn't want to leave first.
Sheng Ze was reluctant to spend every moment with Shen Qingqian.
After a moment of silence, Shen Qingqian suddenly spoke, "You woke up yesterday and said you had a dream. What was that dream?"
It was so awkward for the two of them to just stand there in silence that Shen Qingqian had to find a topic to talk about.
Sheng Ze's eyes moved slightly, his Adam's apple rolled, and he finally said, "Nothing, I don't remember much anymore."
"Oh," Shen Qingqian nodded, "That's how dreams are. You can still remember them when you wake up, but if you wait a little longer you'll forget them all. You never know when a scene will feel familiar again."
She understood this feeling very well because she often felt the same way.
At this point, the two had nothing more to say, so Sheng Ze led her back.
Unexpectedly, that night, Shen Xiao brought a batch of weapons to the military camp by the Lan River.
“This is a thorn.” Liang Cheng lifted the oil paper, took out a weapon and looked at Shen Xiao.
Shen Xiao nodded, "Yes, this is the improved military dagger that Old Qin and I developed together."
