Traveling to Ancient Times: My Space Contains Weapons

Chapter 279 Shocking Everyone: Torpedo King

Upon hearing Zhou Shixun's words, Chu Chen said, "In that case, let's call him over. We should trust those we employ and not employ those we don't trust. Let's discuss this matter together."

After listening, Zhou Shixun gave Eunuch Wei a wink.

Eunuch Wei, understanding the implication, brought over another chair, and Zhou Shixun called out to Zheng Jing, "Please take a seat."

Zheng Jing scurried over excitedly: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Then he plopped down in the chair, and when Eunuch Wei saw him, he thought to himself, "He really is a blockhead."

However, it is precisely because of such a free-spirited person that great achievements are possible!

Upon seeing this, Chu Chen immediately took out a large black torpedo used in modern society for sniping fish from his backpack and placed it directly on the table.

Upon seeing the dark object, Zhou Shixun immediately realized something.

So he waved his hand and sent the palace maids away.

Only the four of them remained in the entire Imperial Study.

"Chu boy, tell me, what is this?"

"Your Majesty, this thing is called gunpowder. You should know that the breach in the city wall of Saibei City is all thanks to this thing."

Zhou Shixun immediately perked up upon hearing this.

His eyes lit up instantly. He thought to himself, "I was just thinking with Old Wei about how to get this thing. Could this kid really be a god who can read people's minds?"

He picked up the torpedo and examined it from head to toe.

"Chuwa, do you really think such a small thing could bring down the city wall?"

"Well, this one definitely won't work, but if we make it as big as a bucket, there might be hope."

Chu Chen snatched the torpedo and said.

If Zhou Shixun were to blow this thing up, it wouldn't be fun at all.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Shixun immediately looked at Zheng Jing: "Chu boy, you called this kid here, could it be that you're going to teach him how to make this?"

Chu Chen nodded upon hearing this: "How about this, let's find an open space, test its power first, and then come back to discuss how to proceed."

"But Uncle Zhou should understand the secrecy of this matter better than I do."

Chu Chen meant that this thing couldn't be leaked. If everyone had it, it wouldn't necessarily be a good thing for him.

Although I have weapons in my own space that can easily defeat these people, if my enemies get their hands on them, then there will be a risk of insecurity.

The reason Chu Chen gave this item to Zhou Shixun was only after his own strength had greatly increased.

By the time this thing is produced, I estimate I'll have reached the seventh rank or higher.

If dodging bullets is no problem in daily life, then a few firecrackers won't pose a threat to me.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Shixun immediately said to Eunuch Wei behind him, "Old Wei, let's go find a secluded place and give it a try!"

Upon hearing this, Eunuch Wei immediately ran out, and soon a carriage arrived.

Zhou Shixun led Chu Chen and Zheng Jing onto the carriage, which was driven by Eunuch Wei, and the four of them headed towards the outskirts of the city.

Chu Chen was carrying a backpack on his back, and the backpack was full of these things.

If they all explode at once, everyone in this carriage will probably be blown away!

After all, in modern society, there are quite a few people who have had their hands and feet blown off while using this thing to fry fish.

The carriage traveled for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn before the four of them arrived at a deserted hilltop.

In front of the small hill, there is a small river where many fish swim to and fro.

Chu Chen pointed to the fish in the river and said to Zhou Shixun, "Uncle Zhou, let's eat fish for lunch today."

After saying that, he pulled out a torpedo and a lighter.

I lit the fuse, waited two seconds, and then threw the thing into the river.

Everyone stared intently at the black torpedo bubbling in the water when suddenly, a muffled sound came from the riverbed.

Everyone felt the ground beneath their feet tremble. After many bubbles rose from the river, many fish floated to the surface, their white bodies turning upwards.

Chu Chen laughed and shouted to Zheng Jing, "Hurry up, catch some fish! His Majesty wants to eat them for lunch today."

Zheng Jing didn't care about anything else and plunged in.

Then they scooped out many large fish.

"Chuwa, this thing can unleash such power in water, so what about on land?"

Chu Chen said with a smile, "Uncle Zhou, no rush, let's wait and see. This time we'll blast the mountain and use ten of these things."

After saying that, he took out an entrenching tool and dug a deep hole in the hillside.

Then he buried ten torpedoes. For safety, Chu Chen specially lengthened the fuses and connected the ten torpedoes together.

After burying it, he pulled Zhou Shixun and the others to hide behind the carriage.

Then he took out a lighter and handed it to Eunuch Wei: "Eunuch Wei, I'll make you braised fish for lunch. Go light the fire. You're skilled in martial arts, so just leave after you're done."

Wei Gonggong looked at Chu Chen with a bewildered expression, thinking to himself, "You're really cunning, kid."

Everyone knows about the commotion caused by the exploding fish just now; that was only one fish, but now ten are exploding at the same time.

With my old arms and legs, I'll be played to death by you guys sooner or later.

But Zhou Shixun stared at him with a smile: "Old Wei, it's up to you. You have the highest martial arts skills here. Remember to run after you've finished."

With no other choice, Eunuch Wei took the lighter and dashed off towards the mountainside.

With trembling hands, he pressed the lighter. When the flame touched the fuse, it made a hissing sound. Wei Gonggong dropped the lighter and retreated.

They were afraid that if they were even a step too late, they would be the ones to collapse.

In fact, Chu Chen was just trying to scare him. With the power of those ten torpedoes, they posed no threat to Eunuch Wei at all.

They're definitely a top-tier ninth-rank fighter, they can dodge bullets anytime, let alone this little bit of power.

A plume of white smoke rose from the fuse in front of the mountain, following the torpedo inside the mountain.

The crowd hid behind the carriage, with Eunuch Wei and Zheng Jing shielding Chu Chen and Zhou Shixun in front of them.

A moment later, a deafening roar, like thunder, resounded.

In an instant, a cloud of flying sand and stones shot out from the mountain. Some small stones hit the carriage, while others pierced through the thin wood of the carriage and entered the carriage.

Immediately afterwards, perhaps as if struck by a mountain hammer, a large section of the mountain collapsed instantly.

In an instant, it tumbled and rolled into the river with a splash.

The four people present, including Chu Chen, were all astonished and opened their mouths wide. Was this thing really that powerful?

After the storm subsided, Zhou Shixun was the first to emerge, pointing at the collapsed mountainside and laughing heartily.

"Chuwazi, you are truly my lucky star! With this, I'd like to see which city wall can withstand the attack of my Great Xia soldiers, and which country dares to stand in front of my Great Xia soldiers."
