My Confucian Father

Chapter 78 The Son of Confucianism and Saints Comes to Instruct
The sudden attack caught everyone off guard. While chatting well, someone suddenly launched a sneak attack.

"My lord, be careful!"

Zhao Ming's reaction was extremely quick, and he immediately stepped forward to block Su Mu, and the long knife in his hand was drawn out of its sheath instantly!

The majestic true energy filled his whole body, and the aura belonging to the seventh-rank military cultivator surged out. Before everyone could react, Zhao Ming slashed out!

The collision of the knife light and the fire light produced a violent explosion, bursting out chaotic aura and wind pressure, but Zhao Ming still stood there motionless without any damage.

After blocking the blow, he immediately turned around to check Su Mu's situation, and said anxiously, "My lord, are you injured?"

"I am fine."

Su Mu came back to his senses, waved his hand to indicate that he was fine, and told Zhao Ming not to worry.

The attack just now came so suddenly that even he didn't react for a while, but Zhao Ming's reaction was extremely quick and he blocked the attack immediately.

Chen Li, Zhuge Bin, and Tao An also came back to their senses one after another, only then did they realize the danger of the encounter just now.

After Tao An came to his senses, he immediately cursed and said angrily, "Damn it, who did the sneak attack just now? Let me get the hell out! Are you getting impatient?!"

He was really furious. Judging by the power of the attack just now, if Zhao Ming hadn't blocked it in time, they would have been injured even if they couldn't die!
The most important thing is that in a place like the smelter of the Ministry of Industry, is it still attacked?It's outrageous!
"Master Chen, what happened just now?"

Zhuge Bin's expression was also not good-looking, and he cast his eyes on Chen Li, which was also the first time he encountered such a situation.

Chen Li's head was covered with cold sweat, he bowed slightly when he heard the words, and said, "Young Master, wait a moment, I'll go ask..."

Before he finished speaking, several people in black robes hurried over not far away.

"Elder Chen, are you alright?"

A young man in the lead asked nervously, and the people next to him also seemed quite disturbed.

Seeing them, Chen Li immediately knew what was going on, and he became angry immediately.

"Wei Liangcai! How many times have I told you to be careful when experimenting with weapons in the proving ground! Did you take my words as a deaf ear?"

When Chen Li went up, he was reprimanded directly.

The young man named Wei Liangcai scratched his head and said, "Just now I was testing the Thunderbolt, and the angle was too high, so..."

"Bang Tianlei? You guys!"

Chen Li's face turned dark after hearing this, and he held back his anger and said, "Do you know that the attack just now almost hit Young Master Zhuge?"

Wei Liangcai was shocked when he heard the words, and then he noticed Zhuge Bin and others beside him, but when they saw Su Mu, they showed expressions of shock and panic.

"You are... Mr. Su from the Confucian sage family?"

Wei Liangcai looked at Su Mu up and down a few times, a little unsure. The last time he went to the National Day banquet, he saw Su Mu from a distance at the banquet.

The son of a Confucian sage?Chen Li was stunned when he heard the words, and looked at Su Mu, but didn't react for a while.

However, before Su Mu could speak, Tao An said fiercely, "That's right, this is the eldest son of a Confucian sage! Were you trying to assassinate just now?"

One sentence made Wei Liangcai and the others turn pale with fright.

Chen Li was also shocked. He didn't attend the National Day banquet last time because he was busy, so he didn't meet Su Mu.

And Su Mu hasn't declared his identity since he came here, and he didn't know who he was receiving until now.

"So it's Mr. Su! I'm sorry, I'm so sorry! It's the lower official's negligence..."

Chen Li apologized again and again, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Zhuge Bin's status was enough for him to treat him cautiously, but who knew that the one with the biggest background was actually this one!
Although Su Mu has no official position, his status as the son of a Confucian saint is comparable to that of the current prince, or even worse!
And I also heard rumors that the other party survived the catastrophe at the National Day banquet some time ago, and it seems to be sanctified...

Su Mu said to Wei Liangcai with a serious expression, "You should be glad that it was us and not someone else who was almost hit."

"The blow just now has the power of the seventh-rank level. Most of the people in this square are ordinary people. If they are hit, they will definitely die."

"Your operational mistakes are inappropriate, but you need to let others pay with their lives. This is the most serious mistake."

Wei Liangcai and the others bowed their heads deeply, deeply ashamed.

Chen Li also gave them a gouged look, and then said sincerely to Su Mu: "Master Su, I will strengthen the management in this area, and this will never happen again in the future."

He also had a respect for Su Mu in his heart.

He was attacked, but he was not angry that he was attacked. Instead, he said that it was fortunate that no one else was hit. This kind of generosity is really admirable.

He really deserves to be the son of Confucian saints.

Su Mu nodded slightly, and then asked: "Hasn't Hong Tianlei already been developed, why are you still conducting test launches here?"

He thought that the Thunderbolt was already in mass production, but that doesn't seem to be the case now.

"Master Su doesn't know something."

Chen Li didn't hide anything when he heard the words, and replied: "The Thunderbolt developed by Juzi is actually only a semi-finished product."

"The Thunderbolt we designed at the beginning is more powerful than what was shown at the National Day Banquet, but it consumes less energy. There is still some time before delivery to the imperial court, so we are hurrying to improve it, but the progress is slow."

When he mentioned this, his tone was full of helplessness.

The delivery date of Hong Tianlei is not far away, but the progress of their research and development is very touching.

If this continues, I don't know if we can complete the research and development before the delivery date, otherwise we can only delay it.

"Is there such a thing? Why haven't I heard my father mention it... But he seems to be sleeping very late every day during this time."

Zhuge Bin's eyes widened. He really didn't know about this. He always thought that the research and development of Hong Tianlei had been completed.

Then he pulled Su Mu and said, "Brother Mu, we're all here, why don't you just go over and have a look, so you can give some advice and guidance."

These words fell into the ears of Chen Li, Wei Liangcai and the others, causing them to look at each other in dismay.

Let Su Mu provide advice and guidance?Although this is the son of a Confucian sage, he has nothing to do with our Mohist school. The problem of Lingshi weapons is being studied by the whole Mohist sect.

"Then go have a look."

Su Mu didn't refuse either, he hadn't seen Hong Tianlei's appearance and structure up close.

What is the difference between the unique firearms belonging to this world, the prototype of Lingshi technology, and the weapons of the previous life?

"Master Su, Mr. Zhuge, this way please."

Seeing this, Chen Li took the initiative to lead the way, leading Su Mu and others across the square to the testing ground.

The research and development and testing of Hongtianlei are all at the proving ground. After all, it is a special energy weapon. It needs to be tested directly to collect relevant data before it can be improved.

The test site is quite large, surrounded by high walls poured with molten iron, and protected by arrays.

With such sophisticated protection, Wei Liangcai and the others were able to shoot the Thunderbolt out of the wall just now, and the aim was really not known where it went.

After Chen Li led Su Mu into the testing ground, he pointed to the open space not far away and said, "Young Master Su, that's the Thunderbolt that we are developing and improving."

I saw a row of cannons of different shapes and sizes placed on the square, all of which were thunderbolts!
