Traveling to Ancient Times: My Space Contains Weapons

Chapter 1502 The Power of a Hand-Crafted Pistol

Luo Wang was shocked upon hearing this, thinking to himself that this group was undoubtedly spies from another country.

Their target was actually Mr. Chu, which means their idea was very simple.

They mistakenly believed that Mr. Chu was the leader of their group, so they wanted to capture the leader first and then force them to submit.

So he called out to Mr. Chu to be careful as he hurried over.

After giving the order, the leader charged straight at Chu Chen.

Chu Chen shook his head helplessly: "Don't be nervous, Gou Shengzi. Just kill anyone you meet. There's always a first time."

As he spoke, he pulled out a pistol and aimed it at the group of people rushing towards him.

"How dare you! If you dare to lay a finger on Mr. Chu today, the State of Song will tear you to pieces to the ends of the earth!"

Looking at the nervous Luo Wang, Chu Chen thought to himself, "Isn't this the behavior of a fool?"

At this point, you're still emphasizing Lao Tzu's importance. What are you trying to do? Are you telling people, "Come quickly, this is a very important person to us?"

So, in a fit of anger, he raised his pistol and fired a shot at the fastest person charging forward.

As a hole appeared in the man's chest, and he collapsed to the ground with a thud, Chu Chen revealed a knowing smile.

Who says delivery guys are uneducated? I made this by hand!

It was this gunshot from Chu Chen's pistol that shocked everyone present.

For a moment, they forgot about the fight and all looked at Chu Chen.

Then, everyone glanced at the corpse on the ground.

"What kind of hidden weapon is this? It's incredibly terrifying!"

"Mr. Chu is truly a divine being! Brothers, follow me and fight the enemy!"

Luo Wang was the first to react, and he immediately organized everyone to fight back.

Chu Chen ignored their shock and this time, he pointed his gun at the leader.

Without hesitation, he pulled the trigger. Because the leader was highly skilled in martial arts, he was the second fastest to charge. At this moment, he was only about twenty meters away from him.

At such close range, for someone like Chu Chen who had been wielding guns for hundreds of years, it was practically an easy kill with his eyes closed.

As everyone expected, after another gunshot, a bloody hole appeared in the man's head, and he fell straight down.

"Brothers, retreat quickly... We can't win, we can't win!"

In the crowd, someone, a clever fellow, shouted something, and everyone on the other side fled into the mountains.

However, Luo Wang and his men had already gained the upper hand. After one round, they had left behind more than twenty corpses and, incidentally, captured two survivors.

Seeing that the people were fleeing at a rapid pace, Luo Wang immediately ordered a halt to the pursuit.

In his eyes, these spies were important, but they were far from enough compared to Mr. Chu and the things in the car.

"Everyone, clean up the battlefield and continue on your way."

At his command, the soldiers dressed as merchants began looting the corpses, collecting anything useful, and then quickly drove off in their carriages.

This place is dangerous; no one knows how many of them there are or whether they will retaliate.

Therefore, getting out of this forest quickly is the best course of action.

Fortunately, they marched for a day and a night, emerging from the forest and reaching the walls of the capital, without noticing any pursuers closing in.

Luo Wang secretly breathed a sigh of relief at that moment.

I never expected that even though I disguised myself as a merchant caravan to prevent the spies from finding out and sending people to attack, I would still be seen through by those omnipresent spies.

About ten miles outside the capital, they set up camp. Due to the overnight march, they were exhausted and needed to rest.

After sending two able-bodied men to the capital to fetch reinforcements, Luo Wang went directly to Chu Chen.

"Mr. Chu, I am truly grateful to you for this opportunity. I am ashamed!"

"Brother Luo, don't be so polite. This was something no one could have predicted. Who knew they would be able to see through it?"

Luo Wang shook his head and smiled helplessly, "These spies are everywhere, they're really despicable. And the fact that they were able to gather such a large group of people shows that they've been lurking in the Song Kingdom for a long time."

“Mr. Chu, if you hadn’t used such a miraculous weapon to quickly kill those two and intimidate them, it would have been hard to say whether we could have safely returned to the capital this time.”

Chu Chen looked at Luo Wang with a smile. This kid seemed like a fool who only knew how to charge into battle, but he was actually quite thoughtful.

Whether he was so anxious to thank me or expressing his gratitude, his real purpose was the same: he wanted to know about the weapon in his hand.

However, because he was wearing a long robe, he did not see the pistol in his hand clearly at the time.

Therefore, Chu Chen did not intend to tell him.

"General Luo, I have my own considerations and secrets, so there are many things I don't want to say. Please don't force me."

"Although I have a very good temper, once you provoke me, I'm someone who fears neither heaven nor earth."

"Please keep this a secret, General Luo."

Even if Luo Wang was stupid, he could understand what Chu Chen meant.

He quickly bowed and said, "Mr. Chu, you misunderstand. I, Luo Wang, am not a gossip. You can rest assured."

Just kidding. They've already pointed it out to me. If I go around spreading rumors, I might end up getting myself into trouble without even realizing it.

That sound is terrible, it could kill someone.

"Alright, we've been traveling for a day and a night, everyone must be tired. General Luo, you should go and rest too."

Looking into Chu Chen's eyes, Luo Wang felt a chill run down his spine. He had a feeling that if he showed any interest or covetousness for Chu Chen's weapon, Chu Chen might just kill him immediately.

For someone of Chu Chen's status, dealing with one of his own lowly soldiers would probably be a trivial matter, and no one would even bother to ask.

Although he was respectfully addressed as General Luo by the county magistrate, he knew his own true status.

So he wisely returned to his own tent and told everyone not to reveal any information about Chu Chen's weapon or to speculate about it.

In the military, survival isn't just about being agile on the battlefield; you also need to be smart within the ranks.

After they rested for about two hours, the people who had gone to find reinforcements arrived at their camp.

The person who arrived was none other than Tang Yun.

Looking at the intact carriage and Chu Chen, he immediately said happily to Chu Chen, "Mr. Chu, His Majesty was very worried when he heard that you were attacked. It is good that you are safe and sound."

Chu Chen laughed heartily after hearing this, and looked at Luo Wang, saying, "It's all thanks to Brother Luo Wang and all the brothers who protected me. If it weren't for him, I don't know if I would have been able to reach the capital."

Chu Chen understood that Luo Wang hadn't told Tang Yun anything, so he wasn't stupid; it was just a matter of course for him to ask for credit on their behalf.

"Haha, Luo Wang and the others will surely be rewarded when they return. Now, Mr. Chu, please come with me to meet His Majesty."
