After dinner, Xiao Jingyan came to Shi Xi’s supermarket through the scroll.

Having not seen Shi Xi for a few days, Xiao Jingyan could not stop missing her.

At this time, Shi Xi was combing her hair in the bathroom. Her long chestnut-brown curly hair was draped around her waist, giving Xiao Jingyan the beauty of an exotic princess.

Looking at her from afar, Xiao Jingyan almost forgot what he was here for.

"Hey, why didn't you say hello when you came?"

It was after she finished combing her hair and left the bathroom that Shi Xi first noticed Xiao Jingyan.

"Xixi, why did your hair become curly?"

Xiao Jingyan asked curiously.

Apart from people from Mobei and the Western Regions, he had never seen anyone with curly hair.

Shi Xi then remembered that she had deliberately curled her hair yesterday in order to meet Qi Ji.

"I curled my hair myself with a curling iron, and it went back to being straight after I washed it."

She explained briefly.

Curling iron?

Xiao Jingyan was very unfamiliar with this word. There were too many things in the world of the painting that he didn't know.

"I also came across something good today. I even recorded a video of it and wanted to show it to you."

As if to show off, Xiao Jingyan went straight to the point and handed the thunder bomb in his sleeve to Shi Xi.

Shi Xi took it in her hand and looked at it, but she didn’t see anything special. It was just a small ball?

Soon, Xiao Jingyan found the video again.

In the video, the moment the ball landed on the ground, there was a loud noise, smoke rose up all around, and the air was filled with thick smoke.

It reminded Shi Xi of the TV she had watched before.

"This thing is called a Thunderbolt Bomb. It was made by the scholar who helped us find Chen Daming's lover."

Xiao Jingyan gave a brief explanation.

"Thunderbolt?"

“It really is something from TV!”

Shi Xi sighed. In her impression, the production process of this kind of thing was made up by screenwriters. She didn't expect that Xiao Jingyan actually brought out a real one.

"This king wants this item, so that every soldier in my Xiao family army can have one."

"I wonder if this thing is for sale in Xixi's world?"

Xiao Jingyan stated his purpose directly.

Shi Xi was embarrassed. "I need to ask my best friend about this. She was the one who helped me with the weapons and gunpowder."

Hearing this, Xiao Jingyan also said politely:

"In that case, I'll trouble you, Xixi. If I have the chance, I will definitely thank that girl in person."

"It's getting late today, so I'll leave the matter of the thunder bomb to Xixi. I'll be leaving first."

Xiao Jingyan was not in a hurry to leave.

Sometimes, the more I want to be with someone, the more uncomfortable I feel when I am alone with her.

He felt that he had missed Shi Xi so much that it felt like a long time since he last saw her.

Her voice, appearance and smile were deeply engraved in his mind and he could not get rid of them.

He felt that he was terrible like this.

There is a sense of shame that I am blaspheming God.

Shi Xi didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Knowing that Xiao Jingyan was busy with his work, she quickly asked him to go back.

For Shi Xi now, she just regards Xiao Jingyan as an indispensable friend like Yan Ran.

*

After Xiao Jingyan left, Shi Xi lay on the bed and chatted with Yan Ran.

She first sent her a photo of the thunder bomb and the video that Xiao Jingyan had just shown her, explaining the situation to her.

"For example, I can find you mass-produced munitions, but things like thunder bombs aren't really suitable for modern warfare."

"The gunpowder manufacturers here, even if you pay a lot of money, will not give up their own gunpowder business to help you produce this stuff."

"Besides, I just checked online, and the method for making this thing has long been lost. We don't have the blueprints, so there's nothing we can do to help."

Yan Ran confronted Shi Xi directly.

Even the connections of her Yan family could not make this thing.

Shi Xi knew that since Yan Ran said he couldn't get it, it was probably that no one in the entire Xinghai City could get it.

She could only regretfully tell Xiao Jingyan the result.

Xiao Jingyan was not unreasonable. He knew that even gods were not necessarily omnipotent.

Since Shi Xi couldn't get it, they could only find a way to let Gu Yehe do it.

But Zhiren also said that Gu Xiucai wanted to concentrate on studying and passing the imperial examinations, and did not want to help them produce thunder bombs.

Xiao Jingyan just didn't believe that there was no one else in the entire Lingyao City, or even the entire Dayong, who could make this?

He has already ordered his secret guards to look for it.

In addition to the more than 160,000-strong Xiao family army, he also has a group of secret guards and death squads.

Although these people are not numerous, they are all capable of fighting against a hundred enemies at once and are proficient in both civil and military affairs.

He is the talent among the talents he carefully cultivated.

It’s a pity that they are all slaves and destined to live in the dark all their lives. They cannot go to the battlefield and achieve great achievements like the soldiers of the Xiao family army.

However, Xiao Jingyan, who was born with a rebellious nature, refused to believe it.

He believed that only those who had made contributions to the country and the people should be treated accordingly and serve as officials in the court, even if they were slaves.

It was late at night, and the coals in the house were crackling in the fireplace.

Xiao Jingyan stood by the window, looking at the heavy snow outside, thinking about his next move in his mind.

At this moment, he suddenly heard a loud bang from Lingyao Mountain not far away, as if something heavy had fallen from the top of the mountain.

I don't know if anyone was hit.

Just as he finished this thought, he heard several loud rumbling sounds, one after another.

Xiao Jingyan was a little curious and ordered someone to go over there and take a look.

At around three o'clock in the morning, he received news that the roaring sound was an avalanche caused by heavy snow.

The avalanche caused considerable damage, and people from several villages at the foot of the mountain were buried under the snow.

The snow was still falling, getting heavier and heavier. If people were not rescued in time, nearly thousands of villagers would have died in the snow.

Xiao Jingyan has lived here for half a year and is very familiar with the area around Lingyao Mountain.

There are villages in many places around the foot of the mountain, halfway up the mountain, etc., with a total of more than a dozen villages of various sizes.

In the middle of the night, if no one rescued them, even if they were not buried alive by the snow, their homes would be destroyed and they would freeze to death in the ice and snow.

Thinking of this, how could Xiao Jingyan sleep peacefully?

"Come on, gather some men, bring some shovels and spades, and follow me out to rescue them!"

Xiao Jingyan put on his down jacket and asked the gatekeeper to pass on his orders.

In a short while, two thousand soldiers were ready.

Just as they were about to set off, Wang Tiezhu, also wearing a thick down jacket, appeared at the camp gate.

Xiao Jingyan did not call them, wanting them to have a good rest while he led the troops to rescue people.

Unexpectedly, he came out on his own.

"Your Majesty, are you really going to rescue those unruly people?"

Wang Tiezhu came out to stop him from rescuing people.

He will never forget the moment three months ago when they had no food to eat and went to the villagers' homes to buy food, but they refused to sell anything.

I will never forget the day when the villagers of Shanqian Village came to ask for food and fodder after learning that the prince was blessed by the gods.

He believed that this group of heartless and unruly people should be left to fend for themselves and there was no need to save them.

Besides, the avalanche has not stopped yet, and if the prince and his men go there, they cannot even guarantee their own safety.
