I was a prince in ancient times

The streets are full of panic now, and some shops even closed their doors early in order not to be affected.

Xie Anlan searched around before finally finding a fairly stable hospital, and carried the person in for treatment.

"Thank you for saving my life, my lord." Seeing that her husband was taken in by the hospital for treatment, the woman's panic settled down, and she knelt down in front of Xie Anlan crying and kowtowed in gratitude.

There was a dull thud-thump-thump-thump sound when the forehead hit the bluestone slab, which made people's hearts tighten when they heard it.

Xie Anlan suppressed the discomfort in his heart, got into the carriage and asked Lu Chu to drive out of the imperial capital.

When looking for a medical clinic, Xie Anlan found out that the woman's husband was surnamed Song, and they lived in Anding Village, [-] miles outside the imperial capital. The family's life was not bad at first, but after this disaster, life in the future will be difficult up.

When we left the city, we could see many people on the road who dragged their families to the countryside outside the city or took refuge because of the news of the defeat of the Yanhe Army.

Of course, the road also became more bumpy. After leaving the city, Xie Anlan felt motion sickness again.

"Your Highness, lean on me and rest for a while." Seeing that Xie Anlan was really uncomfortable, Lu Chengjie straightened his clothes.

"I'm bothering you again." Xie Anlan said embarrassedly with a pale face.

Lu Chengjiao smiled and didn't speak, and after a while, a pair of cold hands appeared on Xie Anlan's forehead, rubbing his temples lightly and heavily.

Xie Anlan felt much more comfortable, and couldn't help thinking in her heart, how could there be such a good-looking, gentle and considerate person like Lu Chengke in the world.

If it wasn't for marrying him by mistake, the person who married him would be so happy.

Pity……

Xie Anlan sighed softly, closed her eyes and stopped thinking about him.

Just when Xie Anlan was about to fall asleep in a daze, Lu Chengjie finally woke him up, "His Royal Highness has arrived."

Xie Anlan opened his eyes, regained consciousness, and got off the carriage neatly.

As soon as I saw it, I saw a bombed-out house next to the foot of the mountain, and even the air was filled with a burning smell.

Not far away, three children and two elderly people were crying loudly facing the bombed house, surrounded by some watching villagers, pointing and not being able to hear what they were saying clearly.

"Master, lord, this is Song Yong's family." Lu Chu hurriedly replied when he saw Xie Anlan and Lu Chengjia getting out of the carriage together.

"Yes." Xie Anlan nodded, and took two steps forward to check, but was stopped by the person behind him.

"It's dangerous!" Lu Chengjia refused to let Xie Anlan put himself in danger.

Lu Chuyi walked towards the ruins with a wink and explored the way. After confirming that there was no danger, he nodded to Lu Chengjiao.

Only then was Xie Anlan able to go into the ruins with Lu Chengke to check them out.

Of course, the focus of the inspection was the most severely bombed warehouse.

After digging through the blasted tiles and rammed earth on the ruins, I saw a lot of charcoal residues stored by farmers on the edge of a big hole.

Lu Chengjie endured the unpleasant smell and frowned slightly. Since the woman didn't lie, how did the charcoal explode?

What's more, this unpleasant smell is also mixed with the smell of lightning after burning. Is it possible that a small charcoal can attract the thunder of the Nine Heavens?

Lu Chengjiao couldn't figure it out, so he looked sideways at Xie Anlan, only to find that Xie Anlan was bending over looking for something in a pile of rammed earth, he couldn't help being even more puzzled.

Xie Anlan was digging the rammed earth calmly. It didn't take long to find some fine white powder in the rammed earth. She twisted it with her fingers and brought it to her nose to smell it. She smiled with satisfaction.

"What did your Highness find?" Lu Chengjiao asked.

Xie Anlan handed over the white powder she had twirled in her hands.

"Dishuang?" Lu Chengjia became even more puzzled when he saw the white powder, not understanding what kind of discovery this was.

"So it's called Dishuang, which fits its name quite well." After hearing this, Xie Anlan nodded with a smile.

What kind of discovery is this...?

A helpless smile appeared on the corner of Lu Chengjie's mouth, but seeing that Xie Anlan was very happy, he said nothing.

"Is Your Highness returning home?"

After waiting for a while, seeing that Xie Anlan had no intention of continuing to investigate, he asked again with great interest.

"Go back." Xie Anlan had already found the answer he wanted, so naturally he didn't have the time to spend any more time here.

As for the crying family sitting beside the ruins, he ignored it.

This country is already doomed, and it is still unknown whether his life can be saved, so what qualifications do he have to sympathize with others.

On the way back, Xie Anlan couldn't stop thinking of a line of words.

A nitrosulfan three charcoal.

A black fire|medicine formula that any traveler can master.

The white powder he was twisting in his hand just now is actually white salt used to make gun|powder.

This kind of white salt can be seen everywhere in ancient times, in some old houses that have been in disrepair, or at the bottom of dark and damp walls, but it will not have any effect if it does not touch something that has a chemical reaction with it.

And the warehouse of Song Yong's family is just so unfortunate.

It was an old house, and because there were no people living in the warehouse, a lot of white salt had accumulated over time. As a result, they sprinkled some sulfur in the corners to prevent insects, and put charcoal with some sparks in it. caused an explosion.

Although he had almost thought of this kind of result before coming here, he still had to come to investigate in order to put on a show.

However, even if he knows the formula of gunpowder, he doesn't remember the specific production method very clearly.

When they were studying in the past, the teacher did similar chemical experiments for them. Unfortunately, at that time, his mind was full of his own small company, and he didn't listen carefully. Now that time has passed, he has long forgotten to do it. clean.

He does have a system for exchanging production methods, but that system is just a decoration, useless at all.

Xie Anlan thought so, and he also adjusted the system. He searched for fire|powder, and sure enough, he saw rows of various methods of making fire|powder.

Click on one at random, and place a purchase without paying attention.

The next moment, Xie Anlan held his breath.

The phoenix eyes were full of shock.

[Black Fire|Pharmaceutical Production Method Primary Edition purchased successfully. 】

Successful purchase! ! !

When will it be successful?

The previous two non-repayment balances were insufficient and it owed more than 1000. How can I buy it this time?

Xie Anlan researched it and found that the more than 1000 he owed had disappeared, and he also successfully spent [-] system coins to buy the method of making the gun|powder just now, but the balance turned to zero again.

Xie Anlan is not concerned that the balance of the system currency has changed to zero again. What he is concerned about is that behind the fire | Also [-] system coins.

This system...why doesn't it follow the routine!

Logically speaking, shouldn't the upgraded version be more expensive?How come the price is the same as the primary version!

It really hurts.

Xie Anlan clutched his painful chest and turned off the system. He felt that if he looked at it a few more times, he wished he could chop off his hand.

"Is it uncomfortable? Do you need to call the imperial doctor?" After returning to the mansion, Lu Chengjiao asked with concern when he saw Xie Anlan clutching his chest.

"No need." Xie Anlan shook her head, then thought about Shang Lu Chengjia's concerned eyes, and said, "I'm suffering from a heart attack, please help me prepare some sulfur, charcoal, and earth frost In two days I was healed."

After listening to it, Lu Chengjie asked in surprise, "Do you want to practice alchemy?"

"Practice what pill?" Xie Anlan didn't realize it for a moment, and asked instead.

"Pill of Immortality." Lu Chengjia remembered that only alchemists could use these things.

"It's still immortal, I think it's about the same as a quick death." Xie Anlan was almost choked to death.

The pills trained with chemicals are all werewolves who can eat them.

However, it seems that the ancients, especially the ancient kings, had a lot of people who yearned for longevity, so it is not surprising that there are alchemists.

"I don't make alchemy, I have other uses for these things."

"Okay." For some reason, Lu Chengjiao suddenly had a feeling that Xie Anlan wanted these things must be related to today's explosion, so he didn't ask any more questions and went on to prepare things.

Three whole days passed.

The border gate sent urgent documents to the imperial capital one after another, causing panic in the entire imperial capital.

As the price of food rose again and again, the common people were afraid that there would be a war, and they would have no place to buy food to starve to death, so they frantically stockpiled food at home.

Even some high-ranking officials and nobles are no exception, and they go to their homes to store food in the open and in the dark.

Two days ago, the streets of the imperial capital were still in prosperity, but now they are so empty that not even a single person can be seen. The city is full of solemnity, and there is a feeling that a storm is coming.

During these three days, Xie Anlan locked herself in the room to study gun|powder.

It doesn't mean that it can be made accurately if there is a production process, there are still many places to explore, and this exploration took three days.

"Squeak-"

A closed door was opened, Xie Anlan held a made bamboo tube in his hand, and smiled when he saw Lu Chengjie who was waiting for him outside the door.

"Walk around, I'll take you to see some good things."

Xie Anlan asked Lu Chuyi to prepare the carriage, and they went to the outskirts of Beijing for experiments.

Now the imperial capital no longer allows people to enter and leave at will. Fortunately, Xie Anlan is the prince, and the soldiers guarding the city gate immediately let him go as soon as the king's warrant was issued.

The three of them left the city smoothly, and found a desolate place with no human habitation. Only then did Xie Anlan come up with the results of his three-day research.

To be honest, Xie Anlan didn't know if it would be successful or not, he only knew that every process of his was done strictly according to the production method.

There was no accident in the middle, which has to be said to be lucky.

Under the curious gazes of Lu Chengjie and Lu Chuyi, Xie Anlan ignited the gunpowder fuse left outside, threw it far away, and pulled the two of them to lie on the ground, waiting quietly.

1 minutes passed...

There was no movement at all.

Xie Anlan was just about to take the lead.

"boom--"

A thunderous sound exploded beside the three people's ears, and suddenly the landslides and ground cracked, and layers of blasted mud rushed towards the three people.
