Martial: I Started The Technological Revolution In Ancient Times

Every word.    

"Of course."    

That was what he said, but Xiao Yun could see the determination in his opponent's eyes.    

It seemed like there was something hidden in this bet in spring hunting.    

At this moment, Leng Ningshuang suddenly walked out from the side.    

"Since there is a bet, how about I participate too?"    

Without waiting for an answer, she took out a pearl that was slightly bigger than her thumb. It was crystal clear and looked extraordinary. There was even a fragrance on it. It was unknown whether it came from this pearl or her body fragrance.    

"This is a gift from the previous emperor to my grandfather. Now that it's in my hands, I'll use it as my capital."    

The corners of everyone's eyes couldn't help but twitch.    

First, it was because this pearl was precious. Second, it was because... Since she had taken out this item, what she wanted was naturally extraordinary as well.    

Sure enough, Leng Ningshuang continued, "The Zhao family has a sword bestowed by His Majesty called 'Qiu Ming'. She had seen it once before when she entered the Palace and did not ask for it. After that, I heard that it was given to the Zhao family, which gave me an extra chance. "    

Zhao Fengxi almost exploded.    

Although this pearl was very precious, it was still far from comparable to the Autumn Sword!    

Where did this fellow come from to make a bet? He clearly wanted to take advantage of the situation to take advantage of the situation!    

However...    

Zhao Fengxi thought about it.    

In fact, it was impossible for him. He would lose!    

Not to mention the Autumn Sword, even if it was something precious, he would still dare to bet.    

Thus, he laughed bitterly and then said, "Alright, since Little Sister Leng insists on winning the family's treasure sword, as your elder brother, how could he not give you this chance? Hahaha!"    

Leng Ningshuang nodded and gave the pearl to Qiu Qiancao. She said, "Master Qiu, please be a witness today."    

She had already called him master. She had invited him to be an official. She had the right and responsibility to be a witness.    

Qiu Qiancao also smiled bitterly and took the pearl.    

Zhao Fengxi immediately said, "The sword is at home now. I'm afraid it's too late to get it now, but since Master Qiu is here to be my witness, Sister Leng doesn't have to worry about me going back on my word."    

"Yes."    

Leng Ningshuang nodded and did not say anything else.    

After Zhao Fengxi and Qiu Qiancao had left, she came over and whispered to Xiao Yun, "This time, spring hunting would rather lose than go deep into the forest."    

Xiao Yun was stunned and asked curiously, "Why?"    

Leng Ningshuang said in a deep voice, "My pearl is not as valuable as the autumn sword, and the pearl was given to me by the previous emperor. I can give it to someone, but the autumn sword was given to me by the current emperor. If the Zhao family loses the bet, then the Zhao family will definitely be rewarded. "    

"So?"    

"The fact that he is willing to accept the bet proves that he is sure to win against you. He must have made all the preparations, and even... He might even kill you!"    

Xiao Yun looked at Leng Ningshuang in disbelief.    

"I thought you were just a silly girl who did whatever she wanted..."    

"What did you say? !"    

"That's the feeling you give off. It's not that I'm the one who says it, but everyone with discerning eyes can see it."    

"You!"    

"Look, you do all kinds of things, don't you? Wang Yao asked. Just this year alone, I heard about it a few times. No matter what the reason is, you hit someone, right? "    

Leng Ningshuang bit her lips and said, "I hit him. I should hit him!"    

" You child... "    

In Xiao Yun's eyes, Leng Ningshuang was just a child.    

After all, she was only sixteen years old. Although she was beautiful and looked cold, as if she was very mature, she was actually not.    

"That's right."    

Xiao Yun said and took out a small bottle from his pocket. He said, "This is the essence of the medicine I refined. I forgot to give it to you yesterday."    

Leng Ningshuang said, "Why did you leave in a hurry yesterday? Why... Why do you need to ask about a woman?"    

"This..."    

If other people heard it, they would think that Leng Ningshuang was asking about it out of jealousy.    

But in reality, it was obvious that she was vigilant.    

Xiao Yun touched his nose and said, "It's just that I occasionally saw it. That grandfather of yours refused to speak no matter what. I don't want to continue asking... Sigh, it seemed that there were some things that he had to rely on himself for. Oh, right. Is that beauty here today? "    

He asked curiously.    

Leng Ningshuang frowned and said in a deep voice, "She did not come!"    

Just as she finished speaking, she realized that she had said something wrong and hurriedly said, "I don't know what kind of woman you are talking about!"    

"She didn't come. What a pity."    

Xiao Yun spat out a mouthful of saliva like a hooligan. Then, he narrowed his eyes and looked forward.    

According to his calculations, there should be a prince coming out by now, right?    

He had to hurry up and start. The sooner he started, the sooner he would end it. Whether he would live or die, there had to be an explanation.    

Just as he was waiting, Qiu Qiancao came over again. He stood beside Shangguan Qing'er and was asking something.    

Xiao Yun rolled his eyes and turned his head. The two of them immediately stopped talking.    

This made Xiao Yun very worried.    

"What are you doing? What shameful things are you talking about? "    

Shangguan Qing'er's face turned red. She stretched out her big pink fist and lightly punched Xiao Yun's shoulder.    

"Young Master Qiu, come over and ask if Young Master Yun has been concerned about the affairs of the world recently."    

Xiao Yun spread out his hands and said, "This young master has been in seclusion for a month. What can I know? Hmm... what happened? "    

Qiu Qiancao walked over with some embarrassment and cupped his hands in greeting.    

"I'll let Saint Xiao know. In fact, something big is happening in the world recently and it is very urgent. The old man in the family is also worried about this matter and his hair has turned white..."    

"He's fine. It's about time for his hair to turn white. How old is he?"    

Xiao Yun said maliciously.    

Qiu Qiancao did not dare to comment on his elders. He could only smile bitterly and pretend not to hear anything. Then, he told Xiao Yun about the topic that had happened in the Imperial Court a month ago.    

It was the debate of the locust plague!    

Xiao Yun frowned and sighed. "This is really a very serious matter. It is very similar to Schrodinger's cat."    

"What is that?"    

"It means that there is a cat in a box, ___ said. If you can't see it, you won't be able to determine its life and death. Only when you open it will you know whether it is alive or dead. Then... whether a cat's life or death exists objectively or depends on whether you open it or not? "    

" Er... "    

Qiu Qiancao was confused. He rubbed his forehead and did not know how to answer for a long time.    

"But this matter is not unsolvable. As the saying goes, when a soldier comes, he will block the water and when the earth comes, he will block it."    

"This..." Qiu Qiancao smiled bitterly and said, "It is not that simple."    

Xiao Yun nodded and suddenly asked, "Why did you suddenly ask me about this kind of thing? This is a major matter in the Imperial Court, and it is not something that we juniors can influence. To put it bluntly, this matter will be delayed for a long time. Regardless of whether those eggs are the symbol of the locust disaster, they will still hatch eventually."    

"Sigh... Isn't that right? This topic had been brought up a month ago. Recently, everyone did their best, and almost every day, there would be people entering the palace to meet the Sage... But none of them can be used... Some of them even bring it up, but it's just a joke. "    

Qiu Qiancao let out a long sigh and continued, "As for the reason why I wanted to ask Saint Xiao, it was because I thought that you were smart and could come up with a feasible solution."    

"A way to solve this problem?"    

Xiao Yun smiled bitterly and said, "I heard that more than ten years ago, Sun Moon Country bullied people everywhere and took down countless cities in the surrounding countries. It made people complain. At that time, some people thought that they had thought of a solution. What happened in the end? Before the fight, each of them had to pull out their tendons and peel their skin. After the fight, the coffins were neat and tidy. Back then, our Qin Country suffered a great loss as well."    

" Indeed... that's the case. But what does this have to do with the locust plague? "    

Xiao Yun said, "Then why do you think the Sun Moon Country, which has always been considered a dynasty, would suddenly launch an attack in all directions and use all kinds of excuses to invade?"    

"You mean!"    

"The terror of the locust disaster is hard to imagine without experiencing it personally. At the most critical moment, the locust swarm attacked like a sandstorm. It blotted out the sky and blotted out the sun. If there were livestock outside, the locust swarm would only take a few breaths. Only the skeleton was left. Even the internal organs were eaten clean!
