The Prince of the Tang Dynasty was built

Kou Zhong left with Chai Shao, but Xu Ziling wanted to stop him but was held back by Li Jiancheng, "Don't panic, Chai Shao is arrogant, but he understands the overall situation. He won't do anything to Kou Zhong, but Kou Zhong... I'm afraid..." Thinking of Chai Shao's temperament, Li Jiancheng sighed lightly, so that they don't have to think too much, and this incident that has happened is probably going to be put down like this...

Xu Ziling frowned and remained silent.

Lu Miaozi was slightly drunk, seeing both of them looked dignified, stood up and sneered: "Why are you so unhappy all of a sudden? Come, accompany me to see the good things I left over the years."

The two of them followed Lu Miaozi into the house. Lu Miaozi moved to a bookcase, reached inside and touched some mechanism. With the sound of "rolling", a three-foot-square stone slab sank in the center of the hall, which happened to be the entrance to the room. The top step of the stone steps below is breathtaking, leaving both of them dumbfounded.

Lu Miaozi said, "Go down!"

Take the lead down the stone steps.

Behind the two-foot-long staircase is a spacious basement of three feet square, with two large camphor wood boxes on one side and an exquisite box on the other.There are seven or eight strangely shaped weapons hanging on the four walls.

Surprisingly, the air in the basement is only slightly more stuffy than above, apparently with good ventilation facilities.

Li Jiancheng naturally knew that the ten boxes with exquisite engravings on the surface contained the "mechanism learning" that he was most concerned about, which was indispensable for opening Yang Gong's treasure house. , I'm afraid it won't be given to him so easily now.

Sure enough, Lu Miaozi glanced at Li Jiancheng, handed the three books on Astronomy, Mathematics, and Architecture to Xu Ziling, then picked up the book on Organs, read it carefully for a while, and handed it to Li Jiancheng, "This book is for Kou Zhong. , I will give you two boxes of Art of War and Geography over there, just to be fair."

Li Jiancheng hid the disappointment in his heart and took it with a smile.

Afterwards, Lu Miaozi went to one of the big wooden boxes and sat down, patted the box with his hands down, made two "bang bang" sounds, and said with a nostalgic look: "These are all gadgets I made 30 years ago. Living in the rivers and lakes, I earned countless golden gold for me. Now the things left in the alley are things that I am reluctant to sell, you can take what you need, and the rest will accompany me to sleep in this room!"

After finishing speaking, Lu Miaozi pointed to an iron rod protruding from the corner of the wall and said: "As long as you use your skills to pull down the iron rod, this room will be closed within ten breaths, and then it will drop ten feet, and no one can open it again. comfort zone."

Seeing this, Li Jiancheng sighed: "Mr. really lives up to his reputation. This kind of skill is enough to be the number one craftsman in this way in all ages."

Lu Miaozi shook his head, with a look of emotion, but he didn't say much, just pointed to another box and said: "There are ten refined masks in there, which can make you transform into another person, maybe you can send them use."

Xu Ziling was overjoyed to hear this.

Afterwards, Lu Miaozi said sternly: "No matter how exquisite and ingenious tools are, they are only small ways. If you rely on them, it will be harmful to the cultivation of superior martial arts, so I don't encourage you to use them. These ten masks are exception."

Li Jiancheng smiled and said: "I'm not interested in superior martial arts, but these skills are more interesting." After finishing speaking, he walked to the wooden box and carefully looked at the things left by Lu Miaozi. I can only take one, so I choose the most lethal and not particularly delicate things, thinking that I may be able to arm my own army in the future.

The next moment, something interesting was revealed from the layers of things in the box, and Li Jiancheng pulled a piece of black iron out of the box almost inconceivably.The dark iron pipe is connected to the crude and simple rear hall, but it also clearly shows the prototype of the musket several centuries later.

"This is... a musket?" Li Jiancheng was surprised, and could hardly believe his eyes. In this era, he could actually see such a thing.During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, gunpowder was just discovered by people, and muskets first appeared in the Southern Song Dynasty. At the end of the Sui Dynasty and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, Li Jiancheng was really shocked when he saw this gun. The advanced ability of Lu Miaozi, Has reached this point?

"You actually know this thing?" Lu Miaozi was slightly stunned, and said with a smile: "It seems that you are a destined person. This is what the old man accidentally saw from a hunter in the mountains decades ago. I gave him two Two silver coins, I begged him to let me study this thing. Later, the old man imitated this musket according to his memory at the time. After all, the hunter told me the name of this thing. I have already tried it. Make lead pellets, then pour gunpowder into the fixed groove, light the fuse, and the lead pellets can be shot out with a range of hundreds of feet, you are a person who knows what you want, you can take it if you want."

Li Jiancheng picked up the gun in a daze, looked at it for a while, and couldn't believe that this thing would appear in this era. I think the Orion was accidentally brought here by some underworld in the underworld.

"This thing can be modified into other shapes, hidden in the sleeve, and hurt people at close range. I have seen it before..." Speaking of this, Li Jiancheng showed excited eyes. Although this thing is not yet suitable for large-scale use, it can If it is used in secret activities such as assassination, then all martial arts masters will be vain, even a scholar who has no power to restrain a chicken can still kill people with it.

"Haha, that's all, leave it to your descendants to study." Lu Miaozi waved his hand.

Afterwards, Li Jiancheng picked up the pair of "Flying Gods" claws again, and then the three left.

The Flying God's Claw can grasp through any object. The steel ring at the back of the tail is connected with a ten-foot-long rare ice silk. It is flexible and flexible like a human hand. It is an important treasure.According to the description in the book, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling retreated from the four bandits wisely, which is the blessing of dragging this thing.

When the three of them came out, they happened to bump into Kou Zhong who was rushing back, seeing his sallow complexion with anxiety on his face, which shocked the two of them.

"Just now on the way back, I heard something interesting...someone actually wanted to plot against us." When Kou Zhong saw the two of them, he concealed his original loneliness, curled his mouth, and laughed.

Li Jiancheng raised his eyebrows, and rarely showed a sly smile blatantly, "But the four bandits?"

"Hey, Young Master Cheng is really amazing." Kou Zhong gave a thumbs up and didn't mention anything about Chai Shao. Li Jiancheng and Xu Ziling also tacitly stopped asking, and only listened to him in detail.

It turned out that on the way back just now, Kou Zhong met a woman in a ranch who had a private meeting with another man. He seemed to have some plan to harm the Pegasus Ranch. Then he met Shang Xiuxun and learned that the four bandits With the news of the siege of the Pegasus Ranch, Kou Zhong understood that the purpose of the four bandits was probably not in the Pegasus Ranch, but in Li Jiancheng.

On the surface, the siege of Pegasus Ranch was just a cover, but inside, the spies led people from the small road, approached the castle, and intercepted Li Jiancheng.

Regardless of whether Li Jiancheng is dead or alive, it is of great use.Back can provoke the relationship between Pegasus Ranch and the Li clan, and advance can hold Li Jiancheng hostage and threaten the Li clan.

At that time, Wagang Li Mi was entrenched in one side. Li Mi was cunning and thoughtful. He presumably saw the threat of the Li Clan early on and designed it to deal with Li Xiuning who was originally scheduled to be interviewed by Shang Xiuxun.So it seems that even if the opponent is replaced by Li Jiancheng, the number one master of the Li Clan, they are actually planning to act according to the original plan, and they should have sent more people.

"The abacus is a good one, but if they want to catch me, it depends on their ability. Ziling, let's go, let's go see the owner of the mall."

"Ah? What about me?" Kou Zhong was stunned and asked.

"You? Of course you are recovering from your injuries. Brother, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to show your injuries today." Li Jiancheng patted Kou Zhong on the shoulder and left with a smile.

At this time, the atmosphere in the Pegasus Ranch was extremely tense, and the guard towers that were usually unmanned became heavily guarded.

The strong men in the city drove out of the mountain city one by one, gathered on the plain of the pasture, and prepared to go to the battlefield.

When Li Jiancheng returned to the house, before he met Shang Xiuxun, he saw Chai Shao standing in front of the door with a dazed expression on his face. When Li Jiancheng came, he forced himself to restrain his expression, and said softly, "The house is a room of Shang Zhen's concubine. Yuan'er, it seems a little unusual."

"That's just a small role, not surprising, you and Kou Zhong..." Li Jiancheng nodded, not taking it to heart, but asked about Kou Zhong's affairs.

Chai Shao showed an embarrassing look on his face, his face was slightly pale, his brows were slightly frowned, and he said: "Although Shao is not talented, he still knows that the overall situation should be the most important thing. After this incident, there will never be any conflicts with Kou Zhong again." .”

Seeing what Chai Shao said, Li Jiancheng didn't want to say any more. They went back to the house together and saw a charming woman standing in the hall anxiously. Nujiayuaner is the chief manager of Pegasus Ranch, Shang Zhen. Today, my husband sent a message to you from the Nujia. The owner of the farm has been in close contact with Li Mi’s son Li Tianfan recently, and it is very likely that he will provide Li Mi with horse equipment. The chief steward and some deacons Although we strongly oppose it, repeated persuasion is ineffective. The master ordered Yuan'er to come here and report to you, just to hope that our relationship with the nobles will not be damaged due to the owner's confusion."

Li Jiancheng frowned pretendingly, and said, "As far as I know, Li Mi is the one behind the secret support of the four bandits. If that's true, why did the four bandits come to attack the ranch?"

Yuan'er heard this, and calmly said: "This matter must be a mystery. Now that the chief manager is guarding the East Gorge, Yuan'er will immediately inform the master and ask him to talk to you in detail."

After hearing this, Li Jiancheng nodded.

Taking advantage of Yuan'er's immediacy, he informed Dou Wei and Li Gang of the plan one by one, while Chai Shao hid himself and lay in ambush in case of emergencies. Then another maidservant sent news, saying The chief executive was afraid that people would talk too much, so he found another place to discuss important matters.

Naturally, Li Jiancheng would not refuse anyone who came, and the maid led the way to meet Shang Zhen, who was disguised by Li Mi's people.

At that time, Li Mi's son Li Tianfan, Qiao Junshi Shen Luoyan, Yuan Er and others were already waiting there, but another person who should not have appeared here walked out slowly with a smile on his face. It was Li Shimin !

He walked up to Li Jiancheng with a smile on his face, and said with a light smile, "I heard that my elder brother was in trouble, and Shimin was very worried about it, so I couldn't help but come here day and night. It was a coincidence. These fake elder brothers must have seen it a long time ago. Alright."

"Of course I know." When Li Jiancheng saw Li Shimin, a sneer sneered at the corner of his mouth, and he did not hide the hatred in his eyes, but it was not the time when the Li family was fighting among themselves, he thought to himself, and slowly drew his sword, "Today's People, not one left!"

Afterwards, Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin shot at the enemy at the same time!
