After Jiang Lan and Jiang Yu arrived, Mr. Jiang asked about Ling Tian's whereabouts again.

In the past few days, Ling Tian has been busy investigating the ruins, trying to see if it is related to the Qiongling incident.

He had just found some clues and was about to leave the city when he received news from Mr. Jiang.

He rushed back to Jiang's house without stopping.

Mr. Jiang handed what Jiang Yan found to Ling Tian.

"Do you know..."

"gunpowder?"

Before Mr. Jiang could finish speaking, Ling Tian blurted out.

gunpowder?

What is gunpowder?

Jiang Lan and others all looked confused.

Jiang Yu asked directly.

"Master, what is gunpowder? What is its use?"

"Gunpowder is not a medicine, but an extremely flammable substance..."

After briefly explaining to them what gunpowder was, Ling Tian frowned and looked at Mr. Jiang.

"Where was this found?"

"Zhongjia Iron Mine."

Mr. Jiang put the gunpowder residue aside and spoke solemnly.

"The Qiongling appeared 3000 years ago, and our Jiang family suffered heavy losses at that time."

"In order to remind future generations, our ancestors emphatically recorded the matters related to Qiongling."

"A few years ago, our Jiang family had a distinguished guest."

"That man once proposed a way to deal with Qiongling..."

Ling Tian already knew these things.

But Mr. Jiang didn't know, let alone Jiang Yu and Jiang Yan, so he said it again.

Then the topic changed and he said.

"When I was young, I once went to the main city."

"There, I met a strange man, and I learned about the gunpowder from his mouth."

"But he also said that there is only one person who controls the method of refining gunpowder."

Having said this, he glanced at the two sisters Jiang Lan and Jiang Yu.

Both of them were smart people and realized something immediately.

Jiang Lan frowned.

“Could it be that what grandpa is talking about is my mother’s maternal clan?”

"good."

Mr. Jiang nodded slowly.

Jiang Lan didn't have the slightest fondness for his mother's clan, but showed disgust.

"So, the Qiongling incident may have something to do with them?"

"Perhaps, but for now, it's just speculation."

After all, no one can guarantee whether the method of refining gunpowder has been spread after so many years.

Jiang Yan was more concerned about another issue.

"Grandpa talked about thermal weapons and then gunpowder. Are the two related?"

"If the distinguished guests who came to our Jiang family didn't lie to me, if they want to make thermal weapons, they must have gunpowder."

As he said this, Mr. Jiang looked at Ling Tian and asked him for confirmation.

Ling Tian finally figured out that Mr. Jiang was planning to place his hopes on thermal weapons.

But Mr. Jiang still takes it for granted.

Gunpowder is easy to get.

In the outside world, even a three-year-old child basically knows the ratio of gunpowder.

As long as you find the ingredients, it's not difficult to make.

The problem is that thermal weapons are basically impossible to make here.

The technology is so backward that even if it can barely be made, its power is not as powerful as an arrow.

Ling Tian shook his head and said.

"Old man, I am not attacking you. It will be impossible to develop thermal weapons in just a few decades."

"..."

Mr. Jiang wanted to say, isn't this a blow?

But from this point of view, we can only think of another way.

"Then what do you think we should do?"

"Now Qiongling is less than a hundred miles away from Xiongcheng."

"At their speed, they will reach Bear City in three days at most."

Three days are calculated based on the current traveling speed of Qiongling. If someone deliberately drives it away, the remaining time cannot be calculated.

Ling Tian thought for a while and said.

"There are too many dome spirits. It would be difficult to destroy them all."

"what do you mean?"

"It's better to lure Qiong Ling away first, and we can continue the investigation."

Ling Tian had already had an idea, so he spoke slowly now.

"Since Qingling was cultivated by someone, that person should have a way to control Qingling."

"Even if not, there are at least ways to avoid being affected by the Sky Spirit."

"It won't be too late to deal with Qiongling after we find the person behind the scenes."

It's not that Mr. Jiang has never thought of this method.

Just trying to lure Qiong Ling away is not easier than solving Qiong Ling.

Those with a low level will not be affected by Qiong Ling's ability, but they are not Qiong Ling's opponent.

Those with high realms cannot get close to Qiongling.

If the distance is too far, the method will most likely not be effective.

He sighed and expressed his worries, but unexpectedly Ling Tian smiled and said.

"Mr. Jiang, don't worry, I have my own solution."

"but……"

"but?"

"I need to ensure that no one will cause trouble when I lead Qiongling away."

Gong Laogou had already told Ling Tian about the matter about the head of the Zhong family.

Ling Tian never expected that the city lord of Xiong City would do nothing but act like this.

It is difficult not to be suspected whether the Qiong Ling incident has anything to do with him.

If this is true, he will definitely be blocked when he leads Qiongling away.

Now Ling Tian can only guarantee that when Qiong Ling is not angered, the impact on him will be limited.

Once Qiong Ling becomes angry, there is no telling whether he can resist it.

He wouldn't risk his life.

Mr. Jiang did not give his answer directly, but asked Jiang Lan and Jiang Yan if they had any good ideas.

Jiang Yu, who was not named, pouted in dissatisfaction.

What's more, he is still worried about Ling Tian.

"Master, is the method you mentioned dangerous to your life?"

"Have."

"Can someone else go?"

"No."

Ling Tian shook his head.

Besides him, there is another candidate, Zhong Ti.

Although it is still unclear why Zhong Ti is not affected, her strength is too low.

Letting her go is no different than sending her to death.

Jiang Yu scratched his hair irritably, resenting his incompetence and being unable to help his master.

The master is not from Xiongcheng. Even if Qiongling attacks the city, he can just leave and it will have no impact on him.

But he still planned to stay, and even wanted to help lure Qiongling away.

It must be because of her.

Ling Tian didn't know what she was thinking. If he knew, he would definitely be speechless.

He did this partly because of Jiang Yu, but also partly because he was worried that Xiong City would be breached.

Liao Wengzhi and others are still unconscious.

He hasn't gotten any clues about Qin Hao yet.

If Xiongcheng is breached by Qiongling, the clues will basically be cut off.

It was about his return to the outside world, so naturally he couldn't just sit idly by.

While their master and apprentice were talking, Mr. Jiang and Jiang Lan and Jiang Yan were also discussing how to ensure that no one would cause trouble when the Qiongling was lured away.

Jiang Lan directly proposed a dangerous method.

"In my opinion, it's better to let everyone know how dangerous Qiongling is."

"The clearer they know, the less likely they will be stumbling."

"Why don't we wait for a while, and then we will come forward when they have nothing to do with Qiong Ling."

After hearing this method, Mr. Jiang and Jiang Yan fell silent.
