Chapter 242
The endless desert remains unchanged after thousands of years.

Li Chen, who was sitting on the snake's head, looked around, and said to Gong Shuchou, who was controlling the mechanism snake, "Just stop in the valley ahead, and you should be able to enter the border of Qin State tomorrow."

After leaving the place where the God of Soldiers was kept, Li Chen and others rested in Loulan for one night under the hospitality of the high priest.

Early the next morning, Li Chen and others bid farewell to the people of Loulan and started their return journey.

Up to now, they have been driving in the desert for three days, and they can re-enter the border of Qin State in one more day.

This trip, being able to get the extraterrestrial meteorite, was very fruitful for Li Chen.

In this world, what deserves Li Chen's attention, now only overseas fairy mountains are left.

Li Chen is not in a hurry about this, he just waits for the Yin Yang family to build a mirage, and then Li Chen finds a way to get involved and go to see overseas fairy mountains with them.

Gong Shuchou, who was controlling the Mechanism Snake, heard Li Chen's words, and slowly stopped the Mechanism Snake.

Li Chen told everyone the news of setting up camp here, and took out daily necessities from the storage ring, and let Xiaoyao Qijian start to work.

Li Chen looked at Gong Shuqiu with a somewhat uncertain expression.

Tomorrow, they will enter the territory of the Qin State. At that time, there will be many people coming and going, and there will be many opportunities for the public to contact Ying Zheng and the Yin Yang family.

Even if Li Chen specially arranged for Que Xie and others to look after him, he still wanted to contact outsiders. If he wanted to be completely isolated, he had to lock him up.

But Li Chen got him from Ying Zheng because he liked his skills and locked him up. Is there any need to get him back to Happy City?
It's not that Li Chen is afraid of Ying Zheng and the Yin Yang family, it's just that Li Chen took him to Loulan this time.

Li Chen couldn't guarantee whether Yingzheng and Donghuang Taiyi of the Yinyang family would attack Loulan when they heard about Loulan.

Although Chi You's Sword and Soldiers Demon God have been dealt with by Li Chen, there are still thousands of Loulan's people there.

If these people were killed by Ying Zheng and the Yin Yang family, then Li Chen would be an accomplice.

"I didn't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me!"

Li Chen sighed, shook his head, and asked in a deep voice, "What do you think is the way out for the public loser?"

Gongshuchou was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and quickly said: "Gongshuo is famous all over the world for his tricks, so of course he must rely on his tricks to pass on to future generations."

Li Chen understood, and said in a deep voice: "So, you left Chu State early and relied on Qin State and the Yin Yang family, hoping to gain fame in Qin's war of destroying the six kingdoms by virtue of your domineering mechanism?"

Gongshuchou nodded and said: "That's right. Although Gongshuo has overbearing mechanism skills, he is still too weak compared to the country. Therefore, under the persuasion of the Yinyang family, we took refuge in Qin."

Li Chen looked at Gong Shuchou, then shook his head.

Gong Shuchou's expression changed immediately, he looked at Li Chen cautiously and asked, "City Lord, is there any problem?"

Li Chen shook his head with a smile: "No problem, but if this continues, the public loser will not last long."

Gong Shuchou's face turned pale, he looked at Li Chen uneasily and asked, "Why?"

Li Chen said indifferently: "If you were the king of a country, and you had a family in your hands that could manufacture weapons that could defeat thousands of troops, what would you do?"

Gong Shuchou thought for a while, and said with some trepidation: "Treat each other with courtesy, and firmly protect this family."

Li Chen nodded and said: "That's right, this was the idea when we first cooperated, what happened after that?"

Gong Shuchou's face turned even paler, some cold sweat appeared on his forehead, and he stammered, "What is there after that?"

Li Chen said with a smile: "Afterwards, I will think, if such ability is not used by me one day, how much impact will it have on me?"

"When I think of this, I will find a way to closely monitor everyone in this family."

"If one day, someone in this family comes into contact with my enemies, or my country is about to perish, then I will kill everyone in this family without hesitation, because I will never allow them to help me enemy."

"After all, a weapon capable of defeating thousands of troops must never fall into the hands of the enemy."

Li Chen looked at Gong Shuchou and said with a smile, "Do you think Ying Zheng has ever thought about it?"

A smile uglier than crying appeared on Gongshuchou's face, and he bowed to Li Chen and saluted: "Don't worry, the city lord, the public loser will be loyal to the city lord and will never betray."

Li Chen shook his head with a smile and said, "You are wrong. Even if I believe in your loyalty, what about future generations? They will definitely have such thoughts."

Gong Shuchou looked at Li Chen, and asked flatteringly, "Then, city lord, do you have a solution?"

Li Chen looked at Gongshuchou, nodded slightly and said: "Yes, I told you a long time ago that the ancestor of your Gongshu, Gongshu Ban, was able to be passed down to the world, and the development of Gongshu into one of the hundred schools of thought depends on Mechanism?"

"No, it depends on the invention of saws, ink fountains, Luban rulers, axes, planes, etc. Among the things he invented, only ladders and hooks are more famous for war."

"Relying on these things, his reputation is by no means worse than that of the ancestors of any family. Do you know why?"

Gong Shuchou was silent for a while, and then said, "Because these things are used by more people."

Li Chen nodded and said: "That's right, there are more or less these things in any common people's home, that's why Lu Ban has such a reputation."

Gong Shuchou said with some distress: "However, there are only a few things that people often need, and there is no more research value."

Li Chen sighed, looked at Gong Shuchou and said with a bit of resentment: "In this world, no one can do without the four aspects of basic necessities of life."

"Take the clothes we wear as an example. Whether they are made of silk or hemp, they are first twisted into threads, then woven into cloth, and finally cut into clothes."

"During this process, can you make a mechanism for spinning thread, can you make a mechanism for weaving thread into cloth, instead of manual labor, to speed up this process?"

"Let's talk about 'food', from a seed planted in the soil, to the end in front of us, how long will it take, and how many tools will be used?"

"Just like the plow used by the people of Xiaoyao City, it not only turns the soil fast, but also saves labor. Doesn't someone need to discover and make these?"

"Another example is the rocking chair in my house, the tables, chairs and benches that have been spread in Happy City. Are these things that make people feel comfortable, aren't they worth studying?"

Following Li Chen's reminder, Gongshuchou's eyes became brighter and brighter. When Li Chen stopped, Gongshuchou couldn't help shouting: "I understand, Gongshuo is saved!"
