Traveling through time and space to meet a replacement bride? But I’m a man!

After chatting for a while, Xu Wenyan took out the booklet and showed it to Uncle Ye.

"This is the gun I drew by hand. Please see where it needs improvement."

After all, this thing was being made for the first time, and Xu Wenyan didn’t have the confidence that he could succeed in one go.

Uncle Ye took the booklet and looked at it carefully.

"I think it's OK. I've only fired the gun, so I don't know what the mechanism is. I'm not smart enough to figure it out."

"Okay, I'll try it in the next few days, and you can try it after it's done."

Huo Min had already brought his men to clean up the forging table, and Xu Wenyan handed them the parts he needed.

Four men gathered together to look at the blueprints, and their expressions were not much different from that of the blacksmith in Lan County when he first saw the blueprints.

"Brother, your drawing is so vivid. I feel like this thing is shown through on the paper. The back and the internal structure are so clear."

"Yes, I have never seen such detailed drawings. Although I don't know what this thing is, I am confident that I can make it."

Xu Wenyan felt relieved: "Then I'll have to trouble you."

After the chat, the four of them began to study the drawings with great interest.

Xu Wenyan repeatedly confirmed the reliability of these four blacksmiths with Uncle Ye.

"Don't worry, they have been with me for four or five years. They come from poor backgrounds and have no relatives. They are absolutely reliable."

"That's good."

Xu Wenyan wanted to talk to Uncle Ye about something, but Huo Min urged him, "Brother Xu, what did you promise me?"

"I'm coming."

Xu Wenyan took Chen Sanlin's hand and said, "Brother Chen, let's go."

He didn't dare to stay alone with Huo Min, otherwise Chen Sanlin would have to imagine a bloody drama in his mind.

The three of them sat by the river, and all they could talk about were some high-tech things.

Cars that are several times faster than horses, airplanes that can fly into the sky, and then there are mobile phones and games.

That day, Xu Wenyan talked a lot to the two curious babies, and they listened very carefully.

Even Huo Min held back and waited for Xu Wenyan to finish speaking.

Those mythical things fascinated him. If he could really go to that world, Huo Min would follow Uncle Ye.

Xu Wenyan doesn't like to expect uncertain things.

The higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment.

I still remember Xu Wenyan’s desk mate when I was in middle school. He was a lively and cheerful boy.

But from that day on, his personality changed completely.

The day before, he was still boasting to Xu Wenyan that he ranked among the top three in the class in the midterm exam, and his parents promised to buy him the latest model of car.

At that time, Xu Wenyan was also very happy for him, because he had never seen a car before, and if his deskmate had one, he could also take advantage of it.

But when I saw him the next day, he seemed to have become depressed overnight, and the car I was expecting was nowhere to be seen.

Xu Wenyan roughly knew what was going on. Adults were all liars, and Xu Wenyan had never had any expectations of them.

The outcome of this incident could be said to be within Xu Wenyan's expectations.

His deskmate was never among the top three in the class and rarely smiled.

The next year, he transferred to the technical school next door.

As for what happened to him afterwards, Xu Wenyan didn’t know, but it was unlikely that he would get better.

In the next few days, Huo Min and Uncle Ye helped in the vegetable garden. They enjoyed doing such boring and tedious farm work.

Xu Wenyan studied it with several blacksmiths. The sooner the product could be produced, the more at ease he felt.

Uncle Ye was indeed reliable. The copper and iron were delivered quickly, and all the impurities had been filtered out, which saved Xu Wenyan a lot of effort.

..........

Xiaoman and Luo Sanyuan were sitting and resting next to a big willow tree.

"It's full. We don't have much water left."

Luo Sanyuan handed the water bag to Xiaoman, who took a sip and said, "Well, we'll be in Tianshui soon, so we can only get some water there."

"Ah? Tianshui?"

Luo Sanyuan felt a little scared when he mentioned this place. He didn't want to see the fat man Nu Lie and the burly woman Nu Ji.

Xiaoman saw Luo Sanyuan's concerns and said, "It's okay. We'll leave after we replenish our supplies. Besides, we have a pass token, so even if we meet them, they won't dare to do anything to us."

"Ok."

They arrived in Tianshui early and entered the city smoothly.

The atmosphere in the city today is very strange. Not to mention people opening shops to do business, even people setting up stalls are rare. I walked into the city for several hundred meters without seeing a single person doing business.

And even the residents headed towards the city,

"Hey, big brother, where are you going?" Luo Sanyuan stopped a middle-aged man in cotton clothes.

"You are from other places, right? The court has sent a new official here, and they found out that the Lord of Dao Ma City is colluding with the slave tribe and conspiring with the merchants.

Today is the day of execution."

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he hurried to the city.

"This city lord has to endure such a day, he deserves it." Luo Sanyuan said with disdain. When he first entered the city, he was captured and forced to become a royal consort.

This is simply lawlessness. In Luo Sanyuan's opinion, the city lord deserves to be punished.

"Walk."

Xiaoman led the horse forward.

"Where to go?"

"I went to watch the execution. The shops are closed now. At least they will have to wait until the execution is over."

If you don't go to see the execution, you can only wait.

When the two arrived, the execution ground was already surrounded by layers of people.

But they were riding on horses and could see clearly.

In addition to the city lord, Nuji and Nulie were also kneeling on the execution platform. The bloody wounds on their bodies looked particularly creepy, especially Nulie, who had a piece of flesh hanging on his arm, which looked like it would fall off at any time.

Xiaoman looked around but couldn't see Nuyue.

Has the white-haired princess been executed?

On the execution platform, Nuji looked at City Lord Ma angrily, who should be the former City Lord Ma.

"Mr. Ma, if anything happens to the princess, I will not let you go even if I become a ghost."

Lord Ma ignored the furious Nuji, but just closed his eyes and waited silently for the executioner's knife to fall.

After the new prefect said a few simple words, the executioner spat a mouthful of liquor onto the blade, roared, and raised the butcher knife high.

"call out--"

"laugh--"

Two different sounds rang out in succession, and City Lord Ma's head fell to the ground, rolling several times on the wooden board of the execution platform before slowly stopping.

Immediately afterwards, two arrows hit the butcher. Nuji and Nulie reacted quickly, rolled on the ground, and used the knife on the ground to cut the rope.

The two men were strong and powerful, and they rushed towards the crowd like two fighting bears. The people around them took refuge in time and made way for them.

There were really few people who dared to stand in front of the two of them.

As for the archer, Xiaoman saw it clearly.

"Walk."

Xiaoman and Luo Sanyuan rode out of the city on horseback. Now the city might be closed soon.

The two men pulled the reins and the horses ran in the city, but soon, two carriages followed closely behind them.

Xiaoman looked back and found that he was not mistaken.

It was Fu Jian and his group. The two siblings were the ones who shot the arrows just now.
