The First Tyrant of Daxia

at this time!

The Jinyiwei rushed out of the bedroom and shouted.

"Your Majesty, Lord Feng is back, and he brought someone with him!"

This was a bit of a spoiler, but Qin Yun was not angry at all.

What a bang!

He shot up, extremely excited, and all the erotic thoughts in his mind disappeared, replaced by sulfur!

"Hahaha!"

"Yuenu, I'll come to accompany you later." He kissed Yuenu happily, and rushed out in a hurry.

Nowadays, there are very few things that can make him so happy that he loses his composure.

Yue Nu's beautiful eyes were filled with suspicion. She straightened her messy skirt and gave him a reproachful look from behind.

Outside the Empress' Palace.

"Where's Mr. Feng?"

"Mr. Feng!"

Qin Yun shouted, followed by a group of people, walking very fast.

"This old servant greets Your Majesty." Old Feng came forward quickly to greet him.

Qin Yun's gaze was fixed on the man kneeling behind him. It was obvious that he was an ordinary hunter, big and strong, with a hide bag on his body.

"Wake up? You are the one who made sulfur?"

The hunter stood up tremblingly, not daring to look up at anyone.

"Your Majesty...I am not."

Qin Yun was stunned, instantly disappointed, and looked at Old Feng.

Elder Feng quickly explained: "Your Majesty, this is the case. This man is called Yu Wang, and he is a hunter near Tianlang City."

“He was not the one who made the sulfur, but he left the sulfur on the mountain.”

"He bought the sulfur from someone else."

Hearing this, Qin Yun took a step forward, his eyes serious and urgent.

"Yu Wang, who did you buy it from?"

Yu Wang looked very honest and said, "Your Majesty, yes, I bought it from an old man with a broken arm."

"People from all over the area who want to go hunting in the mountains will buy some powder from him for self-defense. This yellow stuff is used to ward off poisonous snakes."

Qin Yun grabbed his hand and asked excitedly: "Where is this person?"

Yu Wang was startled and immediately said, "He, he lives in Fangjiagou."

"Take me to find him immediately!" Qin Yun blurted out, showing great urgency.

On the side, everyone looked at each other in confusion, wondering what exactly this sulfur was that made His Majesty so concerned about it.

Yu Wangna dared not refuse and immediately led the way.

Qin Yun set off at full speed without stopping for a moment. That was sulfur, an important component of gunpowder! !

It took two incense sticks of time to reach Fangjiagou.

The thatched huts scattered here and there reveal a sense of poverty, with a hint of smoke from chimneys and the smell of gossip. The entire Fangjiagou has beautiful scenery, but I didn't expect that there is a man who is skilled in making sulfur hiding here.

"Your Majesty, the third house in front is the old man's home."

"We don't know his name. We usually call him a weird old man. He has a bad temper and doesn't like strangers..." Yu Wang said awkwardly.

Qin Yun was surprised: "Oh?"

"Is his identity so mysterious? Do you know his background?"

Yu Wang thought for a moment and said seriously, "It seems that when he was young, he married into the family and his wife was from Fangjiagou. But I heard that his wife is terminally ill."

"This weird old man loves his wife so much that he refuses to even step out of the door and never leaves his sickbed."

Hearing this, Qin Yun's eyes lit up slightly.

Since ancient times, it has been difficult to recruit capable people, which is almost a common problem.

But there is a solution to everything. This weird old man has a seriously ill wife. If he can save her...

"Mr. Feng, Yu Wang, follow me to visit you!"

"Long Xiao, lead the team to stop outside the ravine and do not disturb the people!"

Everyone cupped their hands together and said, “Yes!”

Qin Yun was so excited that he even abandoned his warhorse and chose to walk into Fangjiagou to show his sincerity.

Take the bluestone path and turn left to arrive.

This house has fallen into disrepair after years of neglect, but it is still large. The plaque reads "Fang Mansion", but there is nothing conspicuous in front of the door except two red lanterns.

It is estimated that the Fang family also went from rich to poor.

"Bang bang bang..."

Yu Wang knocked on the door and shouted, "Weird old man!"

"It's me, Yu Wang!"

The noise was very loud, and the people in the room quickly came out, their footsteps sparse and sporadic.

creak.

He opened the door, and some dust even slid off the wooden door.

The person who came out was an old man with a broken left hand, gray hair, a hunched back, and many spots on his face.

It is hard to imagine that such an old man can develop sulfur and take care of another seriously ill old man.

It's not easy!

Qin Yun sighed secretly.

"What do you want?" The strange old man's voice was slightly hoarse, and he glanced at Qin Yun and the other person standing behind him.

Although he is old, one can tell from Qin Yun's aura that he is not an ordinary person. It is impossible for him to wear such good clothes in a remote village.

Yu Wang bowed slightly, showing great respect to this strange old man.

"I'm not buying anything today. A distinguished guest asked me to lead the way."

"Dear guest, who is it?" The strange old man was slightly alert.

At this time, Qin Yun took the initiative to step forward and bowed slightly: "Old man, I am the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty. I heard that you know the art of sulfur, so I came to ask for your advice."

"Please forgive me if I disturb you."

After he finished speaking, he gave a look, and Mr. Feng immediately handed over two boxes of precious medicinal materials and supplements with both hands.

The ancients paid great attention to these etiquettes, so they used euphemistic words and gave gifts. Even if the strange old man had a bad temper, he would feel embarrassed to chase him away.

The strange old man's expression relaxed a little.

Suddenly, something is wrong!

His old face suddenly changed in shock: "You, what did you say, you are Da Xia Zi?"

Qin Yun grinned: "Haha, there shouldn't be anyone in the world who dares to pretend to be me, right?"

The strange old man looked at Yu Wang, only to see Yu Wang wipe the sweat off his face and then nod his head heavily.

creak.

The strange old man was a little shocked. He quickly pushed the door open, knelt on the ground, and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, I am sorry for my poor eyesight."

"Haha, get up. I'm here to visit you. You don't have to do this."

"Wouldn't you like me to come in and have a seat?" Qin Yun teased, very easy-going.

The strange old man hunched over, smiled bitterly and held out his hand, saying, "Your Majesty, please come in. It's just too simple, I'm afraid it will offend your Majesty's eyes."

Qin Yun said casually: "I want to see how you people at the border are doing, so that I can make decisions for you and improve your lives."

Then he took a big step and walked in.

The strange old man and others followed closely behind.

The house was indeed shabby, overgrown with weeds and no one took care of it.

Several houses were filled with junk, with only one main house and guest room. There was a stove in the yard, and the air was filled with the smell of herbs.

Qin Yun couldn't help but sigh that summer insects cannot talk about ice, and such a poor life is difficult for ordinary people to understand.

But the old man is worthy of admiration for taking good care of his wife!

"Your Majesty, Lao She's house doesn't have anything good to treat you. Please sit..." The strange old man was carrying a bench, looking a little embarrassed.

Qin Yun smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll just stand there."

The strange old man nodded, and then chose to get straight to the point, bowing and saying: "Your Majesty, are you here because the army needs sulfur to drive away snakes?"
