"Wait a moment."

Jiang Yifeng quickly stopped Zhong Bugui who was about to light the fuse, looked at Gong Shuchang who had been following him, and said with a smile: "Senior, don't you want to see gunpowder? Now is your chance."

Gongshu Chang asked calmly: "What opportunity?"

Jiang Yifeng took the fuse from Zhong Bugui's hand and stuffed it into Gong Shuchang's hand. "You can light it with a fire stick and you will see the power of gunpowder."

"You mean, this is gunpowder?"

Gongshu Chang looked at the lead in his hand, which was thinner than the rope, and frowned slightly.

"This is a fuse, and its function is to ignite the gunpowder." Jiang Yifeng explained.

Hearing this, Gongshu Chang looked at the huge rock and frowned slightly, "What exactly is gunpowder? I didn't see anything."

In Gongshu Chang's subconscious mind, if he wanted to remove such a large stone, he would need to make huge equipment.

However, when he looked along the lead wire, he did not find any equipment, only holes cut out in the boulder, and something seemed to be stuffed inside.

This time, he became more curious about gunpowder and began to imagine what gunpowder looked like in his mind.

Is it similar to a siege ladder, a siege chariot, or even a giant chariot made by the public loser?

"Senior, I will tell you all your problems after you light the fuse."

As Jiang Yifeng spoke, he evacuated towards the rear, and while running back, he arranged for Zhong not to return, "Xiao Zhong, stay in front of senior, don't let him be affected by the gunpowder."

"yes!"

Zhong Bugui nodded in response.

no way!

Zhong Bugui relied on the fact that he was a Badin warrior, and the lead wire was only a few meters long, which was enough for him, but for ordinary people, a few meters long lead wire was not enough at all.

In order to ensure the safety of Gongshu Chang, Zhong Bugui can only be kept by his side, and after lighting the fuse, he can take Gongshu Chang to a safe place.

Gongshu Chang looked at Jiang Yifeng who was hiding far away, frowned again, said nothing, took out the fire stick and blew it.

When the fire broke out, Gong Shuchang, under the guidance of Zhong Bugui, successfully lit the fuse.

Sizzling...

Sparks immediately flew from the lead.

Zhong Bugui said: "Senior, let's stay away, otherwise it won't be safe."

"Um!"

Gongsuchang nodded and stepped back two feet.

If the length of the previous lead is included, they are now more than ten meters away from the boulder, which is a distance of three feet.

Gongshu Chang felt that this distance was already safe.

But Zhong Bugui said: "Senior, this distance is not enough. We have to keep farther away."

Gongshu Chang frowned, "Isn't this distance enough? How far is it safe?"

Zhong Bugui thought for a while, "At least six feet, and it's best to hide behind a bunker, otherwise you may be affected by flying gravel."

"Six feet!"

Gong Shuchang suddenly opened his eyes wide, wondering if the other party was lying to him.

After all, he still doesn't know what gunpowder looks like. If he steps back another six feet, he won't be able to see anything.

"I think it's fine here."

Gong Shuchang was unwilling to retreat further. He had to see with his own eyes how powerful the gunpowder in Jiang Yifeng's mouth was.

Zhong Bugui saw that Gong Shuchang was unwilling to retreat, and saw that the lead was almost gone, so he couldn't help but put Gong Shuchang on his shoulders and retreated ten feet away, behind the bunker where Jiang Yifeng was hiding.

When Gongshu Chang saw this, he wanted to stand up and take a look, but was held back by Jiang Yifeng.

"Senior, you must not show your head, otherwise you will be in danger." Jiang Yifeng advised.

"We are ten feet away from that boulder. I don't believe there is anything in the world that can hurt me at this distance."

Gongshu Chang was a little stubborn, "Besides, I haven't seen it with my own eyes, how can I judge whether gunpowder is really as powerful as yours?"

Jiang Yifeng held on to Gong Shuchang tightly, "Senior, don't worry, even if you don't see it with your own eyes, you can still see the power of gunpowder."

Gong Shuchang said, "I think it's more appropriate to see it with your own eyes."

With that said, he tried his best to break away from Jiang Yifeng and was about to stand up.

However……

Boom...

A deafening explosion sounded, and the entire ground shook violently. Gong Shuchang was so frightened that he sat down on the ground.

He saw flames rising into the sky in the direction of the boulder, and a lot of gravel kept flying into the sky.

It's not over yet.

After the explosion, an invisible force rushed over, causing dust on the ground to rise.

Wow…

The gravels that flew into the sky fell down one after another, and even a stone as big as an egg landed at my feet.

"Gulu!"

Gongshu Chang picked up the stone, swallowed his saliva, and asked after a while: "Then... that thunderous sound, like the sky falling apart and the earth cracking, was caused by gunpowder?"

Jiang Yifeng was very satisfied with Gong Shuchang's performance and nodded seriously.

Gong Shuchang exclaimed: "The power of this gunpowder is too terrifying!"

"Barely okay."

At this time, Zhong Bugui started to pretend, "According to Young Master, the current black powder is only a semi-finished product. If it is a finished product, it will be more powerful."

"This is a half-finished product."

Gong Shuchang no longer had the calmness he had before. He mustered up the courage to stick his head out and take a look, and found that the boulder had been blown to pieces.

At this moment, he finally understood why Jiang Yifeng said that if his ancestors had possessed gunpowder, they would not have lost to Mo Zhai.

Because with the power of gunpowder, you can dig a passage under the city wall and blow it up.

In addition, you can also use catapults and giant carts to shoot gunpowder into the city walls, allowing the gunpowder to explode in the city.

As Jiang Yifeng said, gunpowder can change the current war model.

He even had a feeling that as gunpowder became more and more powerful, the city walls might lose their ability to defend against enemies in the future.

Gongshu Chang was silent for a long time, then suddenly thought of something, and looked at Zhong Bugui, "What sect are you from?"

Zhong Bugui replied respectfully: "Momen disciple Zhong Bugui."

"Momen."

Gongsuchang's eyes turned cold and he asked in a deep voice, "Do you know which family I come from?"

Zhong Bugui shook his head, "I don't know, this junior."

Gongshu Chang narrowed his eyes and said, "I am a descendant of Gongshu Rong."

"It's like a public loss."

Zhong Bugui's eyes suddenly widened.

Although he was illiterate and could not understand the history recorded by the Momen, there was no disciple of the Momen who did not know the three words Gongshuban.

Because the great master told them that in the era when the ancestors of Momen lived, there was still a skilled craftsman in the world who had the same craftsmanship as their ancestors, and that was Gongshu Ban.

The old man in front of him is a descendant of Gongshu, so he must also be a skilled craftsman.

After reading this, Zhong Bugui excitedly held Gong Shuchang's hand and said, "Senior, I'm glad to meet you."
