Eye contact.

Surprise, suspicion, joy, shyness......

Smelling the faint fragrance at the tip of her nose, Li Nian's impatience calmed down immediately.

Time seemed to stop, and the surroundings were as quiet as usual.

The two kissed passionately, feeling only the spring breeze and the chirping of birds.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open.

"Li Nian, I have completed my task for today, please perform the shadow play for me."

Changle rushed in angrily, holding the shadow play of Sun Wukong.

""Wow!"

However, when he saw this scene, his mouth suddenly opened wide.

Stunned, Changle squatted down and covered his eyes.

"you......"

At this time, Su Tan'er also came back to her senses, pushed Li Nian away, wiped her lips carelessly, and her pretty face was burning

"That, I..."

Just as she was about to explain, she saw Su Tan'er stamp her feet and rush out of the study.

Li Nian pursed her lips and took a breath with a sense of satisfaction. Her mean look made Chang Le, who was standing beside her, look at her with contempt.

""Does it smell good?"

The little head came up, and Changle blinked and asked curiously.

"fragrant...You big-headed ghost!"

After knocking on the other person's forehead, Li Nian said,"Hurry up and follow him, don't let your sister Tan'er get into trouble."

"Hush!"

Touching his nose, Changle said sarcastically:"What can happen? I'm afraid Sister Tan'er is hiding somewhere and laughing!"

"Do you still want to watch the shadow play?"

Li Nian frowned and used his trump card.

With a turn of his eyes, Changle nodded repeatedly, looking forward to it.

"Think about it!"

"Help me keep an eye on your sister Tan Er, don't let her leave the house, I'll put on a show for you tomorrow!"

After hearing Li Nian's words, the little girl jumped away.

""Alas!"

Li Nian covered his face and sighed,"Am I too impulsive? Why did I just go for it?""

"Or did I have this idea long ago, but the situation was urgent, so it was a natural reaction of my body?"

Just as Li Nian was doubting herself, Su Tan'er returned to the wing room and dived into the embroidered quilt, trembling all over, with a hot face

"he...How can you do this!"

"How can I face people in the future?"

She covered her red lips, and her pretty cheeks were stained with rouge.

Recalling the scene just now, her heartbeat began to speed up inexplicably, and a kind of electric shock numbness grew.

"This bad guy!"

After muttering to herself for a while, Su Tan'er sat on the bed with a blank look in her eyes, as if she had lost her soul.

"What is this?"

She kicked the air fiercely, and a blush rose on her fair and delicate face.

"No, I should have made it clear to him just now."

"But what should I say when that little girl Changle suddenly appears?"

"How about asking him now? But how should I start? How can I face him later?"

"Should we just pretend that nothing happened?"

In the small room, Su Tan'er held her snow-white lower body and murmured to herself. Outside the window, Changle's little head was leaning against the window, looking at the scene in the room, his big eyes rolling around, and I don't know what he was thinking.

As for Li Nian, he had regained his composure.

A small scene, a small scene

"Women, they will only affect the speed of my sword drawing!"

Rubbing his cheeks, he sat down at the desk again and began to develop his gunpowder.

The moon was like a silver hook, and the sky was full of stars.

Time passed quietly, and in the study, bursts of fire flickered from time to time, accompanied by crisp crackling sounds.

Li Nian stared with wide eyes, intently adjusting the proportions.

In the middle of the night.

Finally.

After failing countless times, finally, as the black powder in front of him was ignited, a bright spark crackled and burned.

"Success!"

Li Nian's pupils trembled, and he stared at all this with bloodshot eyes, looking at it with joy.

Gunpowder, finally succeeded!

The next morning.

After the cock crowed three times, wisps of smoke floated over the sky of Sujia Lane.

Orange lights lit up, and the sound of reading rang out. The city of Chang'an, which was full of dragons and tigers, gradually woke up from its slumber.

On the street, the hardworking vendors had already set up their shops.

A few shouts attracted passers-by.

In the small courtyard.

Su Tan'er had also gotten up early. After washing up, she looked at the little girl who was still sleeping by the window and couldn't help but smile knowingly.

Busy lighting the fire to cook, the weather was getting colder, but the courtyard was warm everywhere.

After a while, the aroma of food wafted in.

Standing outside the study, Su Tan'er hesitated for a long time before deciding to push the door in.

In the room, a pungent smell filled the air.

In the corner, a pile of black powder was piled up.

Li Nian was lying on the desk, sleeping soundly.

Seeing Li Nian sleeping quietly, Su Tan'er's uneasy mood suddenly relaxed.

Coming to his side, just about to change the blanket for him, she saw Li Nian opened his eyes in a daze. (To read the exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"you...Wake up!"

Seeing Li Nian wake up, Su Tan'er blushed shyly and took a step back.

""Hmm!"

Li Nian rubbed his sleepy eyes and saw Tan Er standing in front of him, burying his head and clenching his hands nervously. Then he remembered.

The atmosphere was a little quiet. After a long time, Li Nian stood up, walked to her, and took her into his arms.[]

"I will be responsible!"

After saying that, he didn't even dare to look at her, and hurriedly ran away.

Looking at Li Nian's departing back, Su Tan'er blinked, and inexplicable emotions flashed between her autumn eyes.

After finishing breakfast with difficulty under the strange expression of the little girl, Li Nian fled from home.

The gunpowder has been made, and the rest is to find a blacksmith to make the most primitive musket.

Although gunpowder was used in military affairs in the late Tang Dynasty, it was large-scale equipment such as catapults and artillery.

Li Nian does not have so many resources to build artillery now, but he can start with individual muskets.

And the Northern Expedition is only a few months away. In a short period of time, he plans to equip his troops with muskets before going on the expedition.

When he came to Su Lao's house, he saw Old Man Su boxing leisurely in the yard.

"Li Xiaozi is here!"

When he saw Li Nian coming in, Old Man Su immediately smiled brightly.

From the benefactor, Mr. Li, to the current Li Xiaozi,

Old Man Su's changes have become more casual.

He also knows that his good granddaughter may belong to someone else sooner or later, so it is not wrong to call her that.

""Good morning, Father Su!"

He greeted Old Man Su and nodded to Su Yang beside him.

"Li boy, how come you have time to come to my place today?"

Waving his hand, signaling Li Nian to sit down, Old Man Su drank a sip of water and looked at him with a smile.

"I haven't come to see you for a while. I came in to take a look."

Li Nian said casually

"Did you have a quarrel with Tan'er?"

Old Man Su narrowed his old eyes and pulled his beard and said,"Tan'er has been spoiled since she was a child. If she bullies you, just tell me and I will teach her a lesson for you."

Seeing Old Man Su like this, Li Nian grinned awkwardly.

Tan'er didn't bully her, but he bullied her.

After a few dry laughs, Li Nian said,"No, Tan'er and I are very good."

As he said that, he took out the blueprint in his arms and said,"Dad Su, I have an object here, and I would like to ask you to help print it out."

Old Man Su took the blueprint and saw a���Strange pipe, with detailed drawings of the structure of each component

"What is this?"

He frowned and looked at it carefully, then said:"It's not complicated. Wait, I'll start working!"

After saying that, he quickly got up and went to the craftsman's room next to him.

After cleaning up, Old Man Su looked at the blacksmith shop with emotion on his face, and sighed:"I haven't touched these old friends for a long time. I really miss the time when I was making iron!"

Su Yang on the side also hurried forward to help.

Although the blacksmith shop has not been used for a long time, Old Man Su cherishes this tool very much, and it can be used after a simple cleanup.

The old and the young were busy for a while, and then they started to work.

Li Nian was embarrassed to stare, so he hurried forward to help.

On the side, Old Man Su was busy, and Li Nian squatted aside to add firewood, and saw Su Yang staring at him, with a look of wanting to say something but stopping.

"Brother Su, what's the matter?"

Li Nian knew that this boy was honest and simple-minded. He probably wanted to ask him for help, but he was too embarrassed to ask. He smiled and asked

"that...Brother Li."

After hesitating for a long time, Su Yang lowered his voice and said,"I heard that you were a deputy general in Qin Huaiyu's army?"

"Yes!"

Nodding, Li Nian motioned for him to continue

"Look, can you let me join the army too?"

"No need for an official position, even being a foot soldier would be fine!"

Li Nian was startled, so that's what was going on.

He had been so busy these days that he had forgotten about Su Yang.

He had planned to get Su Yang to join the army before, and with his own connections, he would surely be able to make a difference in the army.

Now that he brought it up, he nodded and said,"Of course!"

""I'm sorry, I should have arranged this earlier."

Seeing Li Nian agreed, Su Yang also grinned at him gratefully and worked even harder.

Although Old Man Su was already in his sixties, he was still full of energy after recuperating for a few days.

A huge iron hammer was swung like a whirring wind, and about two hours later, the model of the musket came out.

After a while of careful trimming, a musket about 70 cm long was built.

"Boy, take a look and see if you are satisfied!"

After handing the musket to Li Nian, Old Man Su panted heavily and sat aside. It was obvious that this job was a great burden for him.

"That's right, this should be it!"

Li Nian looked at the musket in his hand excitedly, and his eyes were filled with excitement that could not be concealed.

Ps: These materials are also available on a certain audio platform. When I have nothing to do, I like to look at the principles and structural diagrams of hot weapons, and fantasize about traveling through time and building them myself one day, hahaha.

This book has no system, and many things have to have a source, so the pace is a bit slow. If you have good suggestions, you can leave a message in the comment area. The author will read them one by one. I am very happy if you praise me, and I will correct the criticism. I also hope that I can improve myself and write works that will satisfy the readers.
