Sure enough, after Mo Jiecheng said these words, everyone present fell silent.
Chongzhou thought hard for a while, scratched his head, rubbed his chin, and then his eyes lit up.
Ji Wanrong looked at Zhongzhou's reaction and couldn't help but ask: "Chongzhou, do you have any ideas? Do you know how to make gunpowder?"
Chongzhou shook his head at Ji Wanrong, but his eyes were shining with pride: "I don't know how to make gunpowder, but I thought of someone who can make gunpowder..."
"Ryukyu Island." When Chongzhou said these words, Ji Wanrong was slightly startled, but everyone else's faces were clear, and the meaning of Chongzhou's words was clear at a glance.
"Ryukyu Island? What's going on?" Ji Wanrong asked.
Mo Jiecheng explained to Ji Wanrong: "There is a King Dongfan on Ryukyu Island. This person has a mysterious origin. He is good at medicine and military arts. He can make gunpowder. The gunpowder made by Ryukyu has excellent proportions of materials and its lethality is It is unprecedentedly high and cannot be achieved by anyone in Jiuzhou Continent.”
"By the way, this King Dongfan can also grow vegetables. I heard that the original Ryukyu Island was extremely barren, and the people on the island were also emaciated and starved."
"It was King Toban who, after arriving on the island, could grow green vegetables in the saline-alkali land and improved the lives of the people on Ryukyu Island, so he was named king by the people on the island."
"It's just that King Dongfan rarely showed up and kept a low profile. The gunpowder was rarely used in wars. King Dongfan relied on the reputation of gunpowder to frighten the Jiuzhou Continent and reduce the wars in Jiuzhou. So I I just came back from the border and stayed in the capital for a long time."
"The life-saving medicine that Mr. Yuan received at that time was sent by the King of Dongfan. Mr. Yuan went to Jiangnan to take up an official position just for Beili and to make friends with the King of Dongfan."
"For the current plan, the only way to solve the problem here is to spread the news and ask Mr. Yuan to quickly go to Ryukyu Island and bring gunpowder."
When Ji Wanrong heard Mo Jiecheng talking about Mr. Yuan's life-saving medicine, she finally remembered Mr. Yuan's past pulse, and her eyes suddenly shrank.
That Toban King on Ryukyu Island?
Elder Yuan's pulse condition at that time made her a little surprised, and he was able to use precise amounts of gunpowder to create powerful gunpowder.
Even Mo Jiecheng said that the gunpowder was so powerful that it could even shock the Jiuzhou Continent and stop wars in the entire world. Such peace-loving people.
"Did Beili grant the name Dongfan King to that person? Or did that person name himself?" Ji Wanrong asked.
"King Dongfan has gunpowder in his hand, how could Beili dare to give such a name? Of course, that person named himself."
Not only can he grow vegetables, he has even proclaimed himself the King of Dongfan?
Where would anyone call themselves "King Fan"?
Unless he was given such a title from the perspective of Beili, does that mean that King Dongfan was originally from Beili?
In fact, Ji Wanrong still had a vague guess in her heart, but seeing the topic being pushed further and further away by her series of questions, she stopped talking and buried the guess deep in her heart.
"Ryukyu is a long way from here. It's not yet known whether King Dongfan will agree. If we only place our hope on King Dongfan, I'm afraid there will be endless variables here." Ji Wanrong lowered his eyes and said.
She thought about the materials in her space and tried hard to recall the gunpowder production ratios she had seen in history books.
It would probably be difficult to produce gunpowder with as much lethality as King Tofan's.
However, the materials in her space are endless, so she can only make a little more.
"Master, the former king...Mrs. Qian is right. The situation on the sixth and third floors is really unbearable. We can't just sit here and wait for death. My subordinates really can't stand this kind of life anymore."
As soon as Chongzhou finished speaking, Ji Wanrong cleared his throat and wanted to bite the bullet and speak.
"Actually, I can find the materials here, so I can give it a try."
"Actually, I can make gunpowder. As long as I can find the materials, I can make gunpowder that is powerful enough."
Ji Wanrong and Shi Heng spoke almost in unison at the same time.
When the two of them said this, everyone present was stunned at the same time.
"Former King...Mrs. Qian, where did you get the materials?" Chongzhou's eyes widened, full of doubts.
Shi Heng also tilted his head and looked at her.
Ji Wanrong felt a slight lump in her throat as she felt the gazes of the two people, but she didn't know how to speak.
But Mo Jiecheng had long known that Ji Wanrong must have something mysterious.
Feeling her whole body stiffen for a moment, Mo Jiecheng felt dissatisfied with Chongzhou's rude question.
Mo Jiecheng's dissatisfaction included calling Chongzhou the former king...Mrs. Qian, so he vented it out together.
"She is now Rong Niang's top subordinate, and she is still supporting your master and me. Does she want anything?"
Mo Jiecheng's tone was cold, which made Chongzhou smile awkwardly: "Yes, Master, you are right, the mountain is self-sufficient in supply, the former king... Mrs. Qian can also order people to go out to buy items, so naturally they can get them .”
From Chongzhou's words, Mo Jiecheng knew that Chongzhou did it on purpose. He snorted coldly, suppressed the anger in his heart, but looked in the direction of Shi Heng again.
"I remember that Master Shi was born in the coastal area of Jiangnan? But I didn't expect that Master Shi would also develop gunpowder? And be able to maximize the power of gunpowder?"
After hearing this, Ji Wanrong also looked in the direction of Shi Heng.
In the past, she had felt that Shi Heng's power was unusually large and beyond her imagination.
Now that he heard that Shi Heng could develop extremely lethal gunpowder, Ji Wanrong directly connected him with Ryukyu Island.
Feeling three pairs of ghostly eyes staring straight at him, Shi Heng clenched his hands into fists, put them to his lips and coughed unnaturally.
"This technique of making gunpowder was taught to me by an expert when I was young. That expert now travels all over the world, but I don't know if it has anything to do with Ryukyu Island."
When Ji Wanrong heard these familiar words, the corner of his mouth twitched suddenly.
Isn't this a line she often uses?
It turned out that she was just telling nonsense!
Feeling that everyone's eyes were becoming more suspicious, Shi Heng blinked and his voice became weaker: "Now the time is urgent. It's not about talking about these things. It's better to find the raw materials quickly. Let's find a place where we can meet. , a quick victory."
Ji Wanrong nodded, and Mo Jiecheng looked like he had seen through him.
"Brother, it's okay for you to lie to us with your rhetoric. If you go out, you can follow Ji Wanrong's example and push that mysterious master on Master Jiuyun's head, saying that Master Jiuyun taught you how to make explosives. This way they will believe it.”
Mo Jiecheng patted Shi Heng's shoulder earnestly, and the meaning behind his words made Ji Wanrong cough violently.
She glared at Mo Jiecheng fiercely.
