Renault was right. At this time, Zhuoyue paced back and forth in the study room in the Wu Palace, holding the surveillance report in his left hand, and pressing his temples with his right hand.

Things were a little beyond his control, and Renault guessed it right again this time. The Wheel King challenged King An, which was designed by him.

The death of King Chu was slightly different from the plan. He died too early. Unexpectedly, his health was so bad that he died before the King of the Wheels arrived.

Of course, this doesn't matter. Anyway, the King of Chu will definitely die, one day earlier or one day later. What does it matter? What is the real bet is the shocking battle between the earth immortals. Everything has to be done after the end of that battle and see the results before we can deal with it with different plans.

King An and King Running the Wheel King disappeared. This result is acceptable, at least it is much better than King An. Of course, at the beginning of the plan, King An won, and the possibility of King An won is too low to not harm his own result.

According to the analysis of the master of Zhuoyue, when you reach the level of Earth Immortal, if you don’t take action, you will be ruined. No one dares to hold back. You will have to put in all your strength. Life and death will only be in a moment. Winning can only win, and defeat will lead to no corpse.

Excellent talent is very poor, even worse than the King of Chu. He has a power that is not weaker than the King of Chu, so he naturally does not lack the resources for cultivation. The King of Chu relied on the pile of resources and reached the peak of the ninth grade after fifty. However, the excellence, who also uses countless piles of resources, is only the peak of the seventh grade.

He has poor military power, so Zhuoyue is more willing to trust his masters in this regard. Their talents may not be as talented as his beloved son Zhuo Zhaoyu, but their experience is richer.

I took Zhaoyu away and asked him to go to the north because I was afraid that he would be too impulsive and would cause bad things.

Originally, Zhuoyue was quite satisfied with the result of the battle between the two earthly immortals. Not to mention that King An had not returned for two days, even if he came back with injuries, Zhuoyue would have corresponding response plans.

But who would have thought that King An actually colluded with King Chu and made arrangements a few years in advance to bring Chu Ren, a prince-like group, back to disrupt the situation. This is the reason for his headache.

Zhuoyue knew that he was old and lacked energy, and his brain reaction was much slower than when he was young. Although he was still healthy now, he knew very well that he could not live for a few years and must lay a solid foundation for Zhaoyu and the Wu Prince's Mansion before he died.

Third Prince!

Humph! That idiot still wants to get ahead, just dream.

"Chu Ren brought a secret master Jin Cheng. Jin Cheng and secret master Renault were plotting secretly for one day, haha." Zhuo Yue chuckled. His eyes and ears were indeed in the Shengong Hall, but Renault was too careful. There were no servants left in the inner courtyard. Some miscellaneous tasks were taken care of by the Hu family's traveling feet and the female official of the Ninth Princess.

Fortunately, Zhuoyue started early and bribed a Hu family to a female official. Jin Sung and Renault talked about something. The two had a low status and limited knowledge, but during the lunch table, the two seemed to be discussing secret techniques.

According to excellent analysis, Renault is a typical secret master. Without asking about political affairs, Jin Cheng seems to be no longer a pure secret master. Such people cannot be kept.

The Great Chu respects the secret master, and is limited to the real secret master, and cannot tolerate people who are confused by the eyes. They just happen to kill the chicken to warn Renault.

"Come."

"Prince." Jian Hui walked in from outside the door and stood with his hands down. As a grandmaster, he could actually be more casual, but he found that King Wu's majesty has become more and more powerful in recent years. After the King of Chu passed away, with the master's perception, he could feel that the prince's murderous intent was so heavy, which made him and Uncle Ji become more cautious in their actions.

"How many masters did Chu Ren bring? Have you found out?"

"Your Highness, you have already found out. Your Highness Chu Ren himself is a master. He should have just advanced for a while and his strength is average. In addition, among the seven strongholds outside the city, there are 800 barbarian strong men, but no master was found." Jian Hui said.

"Barbarians?" There was no master, which made Zhuoyue feel relieved. The number of masters in the An Palace is still above the Wu Palace. Although everyone has secretly managed, the number is not large. After all, there are only so many such masters in the entire Great Chu. Each person is a famous and surnamed and domineering the country, and it is impossible to hide it.

"Yes, some natives who have never seen before are short and strong. They can move stones as tables and chairs. They have dark skin and thick hair on their bodies. They are like uncivilized savages. They are very disciplined. They often fight and practice martial arts. The surveillance personnel found that most of them are warriors of fourth grade or above. There are two of them that have been discovered by ninth grade warriors. The weapons they use are scimitars, which are more than two feet long, and are made of fine iron. Our people cannot control them and can only look from a distance. They feel that the quality is excellent, which is better than the standard weapons of the Yulin Army leader." Jian Hui said.

"Well, it should be Jin Cheng's work. It seems that Jin Cheng is not useless." Zhuo Yue nodded slightly, and he was another secret master of zodiac engineering. His murderous intent was slightly reduced. Zhuo Yue was really clear about the importance of the secret master to a country. Even if it was an enemy, he felt a little reluctant to leave.

"How is the preparations in the Temple of Shengong?"

"All arrangements are made, you can do it at any time." A trace of surprise flashed in Jian Hui's eyes. This was originally a backup plan and would not be used easily. It seemed that Chu Ren's appearance made the prince anxious.

“Do it tonight.”

"Prince..." Jian Hui called softly, the Temple of Shengong is now a hedgehog, and it is really inconvenient to do it, and it is easy to arouse public anger.

"It's okay, if we don't move the Lei Master, we will cut off the girl's wings first. Can you beat Yueli?" Zhuo Yue glanced at Jian Hui. Jian Hui's combat ability was the number one in Wuwang Mansion, but he was far from Yueli's opponent.

"Prince, the price is too high." Jian Hui's voice became smaller and smaller.

"For the future of the Wu Palace, no matter how much price you have to pay, how many years do you think the Wu Palace will exist after Chu Ren takes office?" Zhuo Yue's flesh trembled. When the old King of Chu was there, he regarded the Wu Palace as a thorn in his eyes and tried every means to suppress it. No king would like to have an existence like the Wu Palace.

"yes."

In the Temple of Shengong, Jin Cheng was sent away. Even though he knew he had cheated him, Renault had no choice. After being angry for a while, Renault got into the secret room and checked the dried black gunpowder, which looked pretty good.

Use a wooden knife to cut the dried black gunpowder strips into small pieces, take out more than a dozen pieces from them, put them in a coarse clay pot, take the flint to ignite the wooden strips, and Renault carefully put the wooden strips close to the black gunpowder.

With a slight sound of "Bor", the black gunpowder was successfully ignited, and thick black smoke and the pungent smell of gunpowder rose.

"Not bad." Renault smiled with satisfaction. Unexpectedly, it was successful in the first production. This was not easy for him. Since he arrived in Dachu, he realized that even if you understand this knowledge, it is very difficult to turn knowledge into real objects.

If you carefully observe the bottom of the clay pot, a small pile of residue was a result of too many impurities in black gunpowder and insufficient combustion. It is acceptable. Isn’t there a method to purify egg whites?

In fact, Renault knew in his heart that his knowledge of this antique-grade compound was limited, and it was unlikely that it could further increase its power.

It doesn't matter. Renault is not going to use black gunpowder as a treasure. This is a transitional product. It wins by quantity. It is a dream to expect something like a melee gun to attack medium- and high-grade warriors. Not to mention a master who is very sensitive to danger.

He called Gong Churui in, did it himself, and asked her to learn how to write. This girl is her own war girl, and from her current performance, she is still trustworthy.

In fact, Renault trusts Hu Zi and Mo Xiang more. He only goes to Hu Zi and has to follow him, and cannot plant locks in the basement. As for Mo Xiang, it’s better to forget it. It is still dangerous to make black gunpowder, and Renault himself is unwilling to do it.

Gong Churui is a master, and the master is still quite powerful. Even if there is a small amount of black gunpowder explodes, she should be able to react. As long as she doesn't die on the spot, there will be a Heavenly King's Life-saving Pill.

Chu Rui was very smart. She saw Renault making it and quickly got started: "Don't use too much, it's about ten kilograms at a time. Make it once a day, make it for three days first."

Renault first wrapped the black gunpowder that he had dried last time in toilet paper, then wrapped a layer of silk on the outside, mixed with some iron nails inside, and then wrapped the powder of the black gunpowder with paper, and the lead wire was ready.

Insert the lead into the silk bag, a simple black gunpowder explosive pack weighing less than one pound.

Gong Churui, who was making gunpowder, suddenly stopped and listened in a slight manner. After counting breaths, he put down the powder in his hand and walked to the Jingtie Gate.

"What's wrong?" Renault, who was playing with the explosive bag, asked in surprise.

"Hu Zi, are you there?" Gong Churui did not reply and asked loudly. As long as the gentleman is there, Hu Zi will definitely be guarding outside the door.

"exist."

"Did you hear the sound? Is there anyone around you? Send someone out to check it out and see what Li Si is doing?" Gong Churui's eyebrows were raised. Although the voice just now was light, she believed that she would not hear it wrong.

"What did you find?" Renault asked again.

"Sir, a voice came just now, and something was wrong." Gong Churui said, blocking the Jingtiemen Renault, for fear that Mr.'s curiosity was too strong, and he was in the secret room at this time, safer than outside.

"You heard it right? This is an underground secret room, at least three meters away from the ground. How could you hear an abnormal sound?" Renault asked. No matter how magical the master was, it would not be so powerful. Moreover, in addition to Li Si, there were two masters, Yue Li and Dongming, on the ground.

Especially Yueli, his body strength is as high as 200, which is stronger than Gong Churui. There is no reason why Gong Churui can hear it, and they didn't react.

Gong Churui's little ears trembled slightly: "Sir, listen, there is really movement."

Renault heard nothing. It was already midnight, and in the underground secret room, there was silence around him, with only the sound of wood burning in the fireplace.

I don’t know how much effort the Gong family spent at the beginning. This was not just for escape. As long as you prepare enough water and food, it would be fine for a hundred people to live in for several years. There is no shortage of ventilation, flue, and water drainage, and the design and construction are extremely clever.
