Ma'am help, the general is in trouble again

Chapter 53

The hand of the herb-collecting woman tightly clenched the braided belt of the back basket.

She stared at Yu Wensheng's direction with twinkling eyes.

She didn't know the identity of Yu Wensheng at first, but when she heard the outsider call him "General Yuwen", she had a bold guess in her heart.

The general wearing the Shura mask is the war god of Ye Kingdom.

There are quite a few generals in Ye State, but there is only one who can be called a great general——Ye State's supreme military commander, who is also known privately as Huo Yan Luo, General Yuwen.

She didn't understand, why is this piece of tiger skin so rare?Can't buy it anywhere else?

How could even people from the wealthy capital like General Yuwen have to rely on robbing to get them?

Zheng Quchi's mind is muddled right now.

When she went to the city today, she just wanted to sell a tiger skin to earn some money. It just so happened that she bumped into two people who were in the limelight. She wanted to slip away, but was caught right away. seller.

She spoke from Yu Wencheng, and after realizing that the surroundings had fallen into silence, she said in a helpless voice, "Little girl, only this piece of skin..."

Even if Gongshu thought that Yuwen Sheng was trying to mess with him on purpose, Lan Shaxia's flat voice was a bit colder: "General Yuwen, I'm the first to take a fancy to this tiger skin."

Yu Wencheng smiled: "Is it yours? Did you pay for it?"

Complete bandit theory, but I have to say, it's a damn truth.

Gongshu flashed through the eyes of the tulle, and said: "If General Yuwen hadn't come suddenly, it should have been worth the money."

"That means you haven't paid yet." Yu Wencheng said regretfully.

He looked at Zheng Quchi, only to see her small head drooping to her chest at this moment, and he didn't know if it was because she was frightened or because she was ashamed to face others.

It was already short enough, so let’s roll it up, knead it, and just wrap it into a ball and forget it.

The hypocritical smile on his lips deepened a bit, and his voice sounded like the water in the spring river: "How much do you sell this big bug skin for?"

"He said, give me an ingot of silver."

After hearing this, Yu Wencheng frowned. I don't know how much effort and risk she took to hunt such a big worm skin, and only gave it ten taels?

The chief craftsman of Beiyuan Kingdom is too petty.

"This general will give you a piece of silver."

Zheng Quchi raised his head suddenly, his black face was full of surprise: "One ingot?!"

One ingot of silver is 50 taels?
Having been poor for such a long time, Zheng Quchi usually spends money on the basis of one copper plate. She never imagined that one day, she would be able to live a luxurious life of taking silver and calculating it in taels.

Seeing Zheng Quchi looking at the money, Gongshu said calmly, "Two ingots of silver."

"Three ingots."

"Four ingots."

"..."

Just like the auction house, the two refused to give in to each other and raised prices for each other. Not only was Zheng Quchi's heart trembling with excitement, but the people around him were also full of silver coins.

At the same time, jealousy, envy and hatred are also a true portrayal of their state of mind at the moment.

Why didn't they have such good luck, they chose such a time, chose such a place, and then waited for such a couple who didn't lack money to be taken advantage of and gave them money to get rich!

"One ingot of gold is worth the loss. Do you want it?"

Amidst Yu Wensheng's "it doesn't matter, he will make a move", Gongshu, who was away from home, fell into a long silence, even if he had never fought for his financial resources.

Saw was so angry that his chest heaved and heaved, he really was a lunatic, one ingot of gold was enough to buy all the tiger skins in Ye Kingdom, in order to embarrass his husband, he was really low, despicable, shameless, insidious and rich!
Wei Yao sighed with a smile, as long as it was what their general wanted, he would basically not talk to others about the rules, because he just followed the rules.

Wang Zebang looked at Zheng Quchi sharply.

Thin, dark, short, dressed like a typical peasant woman.

Such an ordinary-looking woman should not be able to attract the general's anomaly, and the general suddenly did such a weird and contrary thing, it should be because of the public defeat.

Seeing that Gongshu would stop responding, Yu Wensheng took off the silk glove from his hand, and took the ingot of gold from Wei Yao.

"Take it."

It was the first time Zheng Quchi saw Yu Wensheng's hand taking off the glove. Before that, her mind was all on other things, and she didn't care about these small things.

Looking at it, she felt that his hands were delicate and white, with well-proportioned bones and flesh, and sharp knuckles. They were the kind that hand-controllers would definitely be crazy about... No, she felt that these hands were inexplicably familiar.

Could it be that such good-looking hands all basically look the same?
"No, it doesn't need that much, just a piece of silver is enough."

Although Zheng Quchi loves money, she is not greedy. If she really asked Yu Wensheng for an ingot of gold to sell tiger skins and made such a windfall under the watchful eyes of everyone, she might be beaten up and robbed when she fell asleep at night.

Seeing her refusal, Yu Wensheng certainly knew what she was thinking. Unlike ordinary foolish women, she naturally understood that people who are too greedy generally do not end well.

According to her wishes, he asked Wei Yao to exchange for a piece of silver. In the eyes of the saw and the aphasia around him, he had no shame in deliberately suppressing others with a lot of money just now, and then turned around and bought it with silver for gold. Get off the tiger skin.

"Just now I heard you say that the fox fur is meant to be left to your husband-in-law, but ordinary people are reluctant to use such an expensive thing. You are very kind to your husband-in-law."

Zheng Quchi didn't understand why Yu Wensheng would start a routine with a peddler like her, and she was alert in her heart, whether she had shown a flaw somewhere, which made Yu Wensheng suspicious.

"He is my husband-in-law. I don't treat him well."

Just because he is a husband-in-law?

Zheng Quchi's simple answer obviously didn't please Yu Wensheng, he continued to ask: "If you married someone else, would you be so willing?"

marry someone else?She doesn't know if it will.

Zheng Quchi said truthfully: "But the little girl didn't marry someone else, so this assumption is meaningless."

Zheng Quchi's words made Yu Wensheng speechless for a moment.

He didn't intend to keep her to "appreciate" the next thing, after paying the money, he let Zheng Quchi go.

Wei Yao picked up the tiger skin and got on the horse. He glanced at Wang Zebang, who looked confused and doubtful, and became thoughtful.

Seeing Zheng Quchi go far away, Yu Wensheng turned around and said with a smile, "Gongshuo is as good as it gets. Since I came to Fu County, I will show my kindness as a landlord, please."

As soon as he finished speaking, it was like a dangerous signal landed, and the weapon was cold and aggressive, coming out aggressively.

Gongshu glanced around: "What if I don't leave?"

Saw gave a low cry, bowed his back, and stretched out a row of knives from his clothes. The knives were like spiders with eight legs. He stood in front of Gongshu Jiruo, and looked around coldly.

Zheng Quchi hadn't gone very far when he heard the movement behind him and subconsciously turned around to see the scene of the nine-foot man transforming into a "spider spirit".

"..."

Oh... what kind of mechanism are these eight legs made of?How it was installed without a trace, she was really curious, very curious!
"As expected of the leader of the craftsman, even the followers are equipped with a pair of good machines."

Yu Wensheng stared intently for a moment, put on his gloves again, and waved back.

"I don't know how powerful it is?"

I saw the soldiers with pointed grass rushing forward, the saws could block ten or even hundreds of people with one blade, the eight legs mounted on his back were sharp knives, the back was thick and the inside was thin, and it was as flexible as a whip, Stabbing vertically, also has the rigidity of a sword, breaking bones and cutting abdomen.

When they fought and blood spattered in chaos, the people in the market screamed and ran away in panic, fearing that they would be affected and hurt.

For a while, there was a lot of voices, and there were crowds of people rushing around, but Zheng Quchi had already hid behind the wall, secretly observing the nine-foot man named Saw.

"The spider knife uses the rotation of the arm to coordinate the strength of the back to adjust the direction. It should use a very thin silk thread to touch the mechanism, yes... and fingers, just like manipulating a puppet..." Her pupils suddenly brightened: " I understand."

"Hehe~" Yu Wensheng saw the power of the saw's spider knife, stretched out his hand again, and said, "Continue."

The strength of troops continued to increase. At this time, the saw with one enemy against one hundred gradually fell into a disadvantage. No matter how powerful a weapon is, it needs manpower support. At this moment, Gong Shuruo let go of his hand that was tucked into his sleeve pocket.

From that moment on, the aura around him changed from a casual and indifferent cloud to a sudden and rolling cold wind. It blew through the small trees, graves, and sand hills, destroying everything, and it became more and more intense.

"Yu Wensheng, would you like to see the ingenuity of the public loser, how can he win the Seven Kingdoms?"

He opened his arms, and the thick white bear skin on his body was lifted, revealing the unbelievable scene under the bear skin.

It turns out...he is not fat at all, he looked bloated and bulky before because——

Zheng Quchi looked stupidly at Gongshu Jiruo's white bear skin, which was actually an iron skeleton, which was still worn on him.

Different from the armor worn by ordinary people, it consists of shoulder bones, sternum... torso and limb bones, which completely and fitly cover the important organs and joints of the human body, and also hide secrets.

No, that's not iron, it's steel!

Where did steel come from?It is to heat and forge "refined iron" more than 100 times, one forged, one weighed and one lightened, until the weight is not lost, that is, a hundred steelmaking.

This not only requires strict alchemy skills, but also requires a skilled blacksmith.

According to Zheng Quchi's knowledge, the weapons used in the military at this stage are basically iron-based, and the art of making steel is not mature at all, and even the very few that can succeed are blind cats and dead rats.

But even if the public loses, he is already extraordinary. I don't know how many military industries. Wearing a complete set of steel suits on his body, he is really arrogant and inhumane.

Yu Wencheng was also heartbroken at this time, the strange luster shot out from the dilated pupils made the corners of his eyes joyful, and the corners of his eyes were flushed with redness: "Okay, let me see and see, I'm looking forward to it ~"

Even though Gongshu had heard of Yu Wensheng from Ye Kingdom long ago, this was the first time he had actually met him face to face.

He frowned slightly, feeling unprecedented fear and vigilance in his heart.

This person... no matter how he looks at it, he is not normal, crazy like crazy, inexplicably excited, although he looks like a laughing Yanyan on the surface, but what is reflected in his eyes is a Buddha's face, a devil's heart, and maliciousness.

A pointed grass stabs at the rear, even if Gongshu doesn't even look back, he just listens!With a bang, the sharp grass cut itself off.

The steel bones on his body are much harder than ordinary iron.

While the soldier was stunned, he pressed the arm mechanism, and a row of ox hair needles flew in all directions like a goddess scattering flowers.

what--

Some of the sharp needles pierced the eyes, and some pierced the neck and face. Suddenly, there was a series of screams, which made people shrink back in shock.

But Gongshu Jiruo's killing didn't stop. He pulled out a row of wooden frames from under the white bear's skin. At first glance, it was just a kind of support, which made Gongshu Jiruo's body round under the white bear's skin.

However, it was disassembled and reassembled by his hands as quickly as a shadow, and it was quickly reassembled into a wooden handle.

"what is this?"

This person is too creative, he dismantled the whole into pieces and put them back together again.

She could probably tell it was a handle, but she didn't see what it was used for.

Just when Zheng Quchi was puzzled, she was amazed to see that Gongshu removed a steel frame from his body, and then installed it on the handle of the weapon. Once it was connected with a click, it became a shooting crossbow.

It is not a crossbow in the traditional sense, but a self-embedded steel arrow in the "barrel bone", which can be retracted with a slender chain after firing.

If Gongshu handed over the shooting crossbow to the saw, they cooperated tacitly, one of them knelt on the ground, drove it on his shoulder, aimed at a group of soldiers rushing, pulled the trigger, and shot the arrow with gravity——

Pfft—the scene of five people being penetrated immediately and falling to the ground in a row is so terrifying that people are stunned.

Zheng Quchi, who has made a crossbow himself, knows that to achieve such terrifying power, but the body of the crossbow is so fine, the exquisiteness and skill in it are enough to turn this shooting crossbow into a divine weapon.

There are also shooting arrows, which are also sharp and decisive, piercing the chest and bone.

Surprised and inexplicably excited, she panted heavily, and pressed hard on her frantically beating heart with one hand.

She finally remembered.

Who is the public loser?
The public loser really deserves his reputation.

Gongshu Jiruo was still wearing the veiled cap, and his tone was incontrovertible: "Yu Wensheng, if I Gongshu Jiruo doesn't want to do something, no one can force it."

At this time, a group of Gongshu disciples jumped up from the eaves. They were not uniformly dressed. There were peasants in common clothes, craftsmen and hawkers, and even people wearing the uniforms of Fuxian officers and soldiers.

Their purpose of coming here is very unified, which is to surround Yu Wensheng, and then take away Gongshu Shiruo at all costs.

They laid out a net, the net was covered with nails and thorns, one group of people jumped down, dragged the net to clear the way, and the other group threw gray bullets in the direction of Yuwen Sheng's army.

cough cough...

Due to Zheng Quchi's favorable wind, those gray and white bombs floated to her, choking her to sneeze and make her throat itchy.

Isn't this, this thing a mixture of pepper and pepper? !
If you don’t know how to make smoke bombs, look for her. It’s too wasteful, too extravagant, and too distressing to use this precious spice as a hidden weapon. Tell her quickly, where to find these things, and she will go pull out!
And from the beginning to the end, Yu Wensheng didn't make a move himself.

He just wanted to see if Gongshu was worth his troubles, and now it seems that he is indeed worth the money.

"General, the craftsman disciple of the public loser is here, do you want to arrange the surrounding archers and soldiers to prepare?" Wang Zebang asked loudly, covering his nose with his elbow.

Yu Wencheng jumped on the horse, glanced at a certain corner out of the corner of his eye, and his thin lips were red: "There is no need to chase, as long as Gongshu Lan is still there, Gongshu will not leave Fu County."
