The Return of the Demon

Emperor Xuan looked at the iron thing presented by Geng Jing and asked curiously, "What is this?"

Geng Jing said respectfully, "Your Majesty, Ning Chen said this thing is called a firearm."

"Firearm? But this thing doesn't look like a gun."

Geng Jing thought, then I don't know... Ning Chen called it that.

Emperor Xuan looked at it over and over for a while, then asked, "You just said that this thing is as loud as thunder and has amazing power?"

"Yes! This thing can shoot iron beads at a very fast speed, leaving no trace... I think I am not weak in skills, but I couldn't find the trace of the iron beads when they were shot. If I am careless, this thing is enough to hurt me."

Emperor Xuan was shocked!

He knew Geng Jing's skills. Since he said this thing is amazingly powerful, it must be good.

Emperor Xuan asked, "How is it compared to a bow and crossbow?"

"Your Majesty, this thing is more powerful than a bow and crossbow, and the shooting speed is faster... It is definitely not comparable to a bow and crossbow."

Emperor Xuan looked at it for a long time, but couldn't see what was so powerful about this thing?

"Geng Jing, show me a demonstration!"

Geng Jing's expression froze slightly, and he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I will not... let Ning Chen come."

Emperor Xuan looked at Ning Chen and said unhappily: "Don't kneel, get up and show me a demonstration."

Ning Chen said, "Oh," and got up.

He went forward to take the musket and loaded the ammunition.

"Your Majesty, please move outside the palace!"

Emperor Xuan said: "Demonstrate here, I'm too lazy to move."

"Yes!"

Ning Chen took the order, then looked around and said: "Your Majesty, can I borrow an apple?"

Emperor Xuan nodded.

Ning Chen ran to the dragon table and picked up an apple, then ran over and put the apple on the table in the distance.

As Ning Chen retreated, he measured the distance in his mind... and stopped when it was about twenty meters.

This thing is not very accurate, and he was afraid that he would miss it if it was too far away.

Ning Chen looked at Geng Jing, "Sir Geng, please cover my ears for me."

Geng Jing pretended not to hear, thinking to himself, do you think I'm stupid...Feng Qizhen was tricked by you like this.

"Your Majesty, please cover your ears!"

Ning Chen originally wanted to trick Emperor Xuan, but after thinking about it, he decided not to.

After all, he is the emperor. If he really gets angry, it would be too cost-effective to kill himself.

The Emperor Xuan was obedient and covered his ears, and then said, "Let's start!"

Ning Chen saw that Eunuch Quan and Geng Jing covered their ears, so he raised his gun and aimed.

Bang!

The terrible explosion sounded like a burnt thunder exploding in the ear, the fire was accompanied by black smoke, and the apple on the table exploded directly.

This was in the hall, and there was an echo.

Although he covered his ears, Emperor Xuan was still shocked to the point of paleness, his ears were buzzing, and his heartbeat slowed down by half a beat.

Geng Jing had experience and was a little better.

The most unlucky one was Ning Chen, who had one ear uncovered, and the shock caused pain in his eardrum.

Eunuch Quan was so shocked that his face turned pale and his eyes were dull.

But the next second, he heard Eunuch Quan's shrill voice, "Protect the emperor, come and protect the emperor..."

Ning Chen was startled and turned his head subconsciously. As a result, his eyes blurred and Eunuch Quan appeared in front of him like a ghost. He swung the whisk in his hand and his neck was entangled.

The whisk suddenly tightened, and the thin threads almost cut into his flesh. Ning Chen couldn't breathe, his face was red and his neck was thick, his brain was deprived of oxygen, and his eyes were black.

He subconsciously drew his sword.

But as soon as his hand touched the handle of the sword, Eunuch Quan's two fingers were like swords, and they pointed at his wrist like lightning.

Ning Chen's arm was numb and he completely lost consciousness.

At this time, Nie Liang rushed in with a group of imperial guards, guarding in front of the dragon case, with a long sword out of the sheath, aiming at Ning Chen.

Geng Jing's face changed drastically, and he said anxiously: "Eunuch Quan, please show mercy!"

Emperor Xuan shook his head and woke up. When he saw Quan Sheng holding Ning Chen, his face suddenly darkened: "Quan Sheng, what are you doing?"

"Your Majesty, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, let go!"

Eunuch Quan said hurriedly: "Yes!"

After saying that, he let go of the whisk.

Ning Chen fell to the ground, breathing in the fresh air in big gulps. He breathed too quickly and coughed violently, choking and tears.

Geng Jing hurriedly helped Ning Chen up, "Are you okay?"

Ning Chen rubbed his neck and roared: "Damn, you dead eunuch... I'll chop you off!"

Ning Chen's arm had regained consciousness, and he reached out to draw his sword... but was slapped back by Geng Jing.

"Don't mess around!"

The Supervisory Office has the privilege of bringing a sword to see the emperor, but this sword is used to protect His Majesty... If you dare to draw a sword in front of the emperor, Nie Liang and others will not be vegetarians.

"Don't stop me, I'm going to kill this damn eunuch."

He was shocked and angry at this time. He really didn't realize that this damn eunuch, sissy, hermaphrodite, rotten ass... was actually a master?

Geng Jing held Ning Chen's hand, "Calm down, draw your sword in front of the emperor, no one can save you."

Nie Liang was confused. Just now they heard a thunderous sound, and then heard Eunuch Quan say to protect the emperor, and they rushed in immediately... No one explained to him what was going on?

Is Ning Chen going to hurt His Majesty?

"Eunuch Quan, what's going on?"

Quan Sheng said: "Ning Chen held a strange object and almost hurt His Majesty."

Emperor Xuan recovered at this time. He rubbed his temple and saw Ning Chen looking crazy, and said: "Ning Chen, stop making trouble! Don't blame Quan Sheng, the movement of your musket is really scary."

"You are not injured, right? Do you want to ask the imperial physician to come and see you?"

Ning Chen suppressed his anger and said with a wronged look, "Your Majesty, my neck may be broken, and I am afraid I can't go to the border."

Emperor Xuan snorted, "My neck is broken, so I have to take good care of it... How about I allow you to rest in the Jiaofangsi for two months?"

Ning Chen's mouth twitched, knowing that Emperor Xuan was insulting him.

But he still said with gratitude, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Emperor Xuan's face was stern, and he said unhappily, "How dare you agree?"

"Let's put it this way...The Jiaofangsi is full of good and bad people, which is not conducive to recuperation. It's better to stay in the prison of the Supervisory Department for a quiet time...I allow you to rest in the prison of the Supervisory Department for three months."

"Geng Jing, take him away and let him recover well!"

Ning Chen was dumbfounded.

During this period, he had been to the prison of the Supervisory Department twice, and he didn't want to go in for the third time.

Geng Jing accepted the order, "I obey your order!"

"Ning Chen, let's go!"

Ning Chen's smile was uglier than crying. He suddenly moved his neck and said flatteringly, "Your Majesty, I was wrong just now. My neck is fine."

The Emperor Xuan was secretly happy and looked at him with a smile, "Is it fine now? Feel it again, what if it's not fine?"

"Your Majesty's concern is more effective than magic pills. I'm really fine... Not only does my neck not hurt anymore, but I'm full of energy."

Ning Chen's smile was very flattering.

The Emperor Xuan snorted, his eyes fell on the apple residue on the table, and his eyes shrank slightly.

"Nie Liang, you guys leave first!"

"Yes!"

Nie Liang came in with a confused face, and went out with a confused face.

The Emperor Xuan got up, came to the table where the apples were placed, looked at it, turned his head to look at Ning Chen, and his eyes showed undisguised admiration.

"Did you make this thing?"

Ning Chen nodded, "Yes!"

"Come here and let me see it."

Ning Chen walked over and presented the musket with both hands.

Emperor Xuan waved his hand, "I don't want to see this, raise your head, let me see your neck."

On Ning Chen's neck, tiny red marks were clearly visible.

Emperor Xuan's face sank, and he looked at Eunuch Quan, "You bastard, you are so cruel, you are really a bastard."

Eunuch Quan was so scared that he knelt on the ground and said in panic: "I was in a hurry, Your Majesty, please forgive me, please show mercy..."
