Chapter 471 I Can’t Blow You to Death

At noon, under the guidance of Gu Chan, each shopkeeper rolled a cannon ball with his hands, and held it in his hands with his mouth crooked with smiles.

They had no idea what this thing was, they just thought it was fun.

Gu Chan just smiled without saying anything, and led everyone to Lingjiu Temple in a mighty manner.

Lingjiu Temple was not too far from Jiangnan Ironware Workshop. In just one hour, everyone arrived outside the temple gate.

Seeing that Gu Chan had brought so many people with her, Bai Jingtian thought that she had brought them here specially to apologize to the Second Prince and show her loyalty, so he ran to the meditation room with a happy face, found Xuanyuan Lie and said, "Master, Gu Chan has brought people here, and they are waiting at the gate of the temple now!"

"Hmph! This brat finally realized his mistake and brought people to apologize to me, right? He's got brains." Xuanyuan Lie said proudly.

"Master, there's more than that! They also brought gifts. Each of them held a black ball in their hands. I don't know what it was. It looked like some kind of weapon or something." Bai Jingtian said.

Xuanyuan Lie was extremely happy, and said with a proud look, "No hurry, let's leave him alone for a while."

"Yes, master." Bai Jingtian nodded.

After saying that, he immediately took his leave and left, thinking about going outside to comfort Gu Chan.

But when he arrived at the gate with a happy face, he saw that Gu Chan had ordered people to point the cannon at the temple gate in front. His brows sank on the spot, and he felt something was wrong.

Gu Chan shouted with a grin, "My friend inside, I really thank you for yesterday! So today, I specially brought everyone here to apologize to you and present you with a big gift. I hope you can accept my gift and stop being angry with me."

"Gu Chan, are you apologizing sincerely?" Bai Jingtian asked while standing at the door.

"Nonsense, if you're not sincere, why would I make such a big fuss?" Gu Chan said with a smirk.

"But why do I feel something is not right?" Bai Jingtian said with a frown.

Gu Chan laughed and said, "That's your illusion."

After saying that, she immediately reached into the bag hanging around her waist, took out a fire starter, blew it up, then put it on the fuse at the bottom and lit it.

"Hiss..."

The fuse immediately burned with a hissing sound.

Everyone standing behind Gu Chan, each holding a cannonball, looked confused, not knowing what would happen next.

"boom!"

The next second, there was a loud bang like thunder, and the cannonball that Gu Chan had rubbed with her own hands shot out of the barrel with a whoosh, drawing a beautiful parabola, flying high into the Lingjiu Temple.

At this time, Xuanyuan Lie was still sitting in the Zen room, crossing his legs and drinking tea with great pride.

"Boom!"

There was a deafening bang, and a shell fell directly from the sky, broke through the roof, and hit the ground straight in front of him. Then, before he could understand what was happening, there was a loud bang, and the shell exploded on the spot. The power was so great that the whole room was set on fire.

Xuanyuan Lie was instantly blown out of the window, fell to the ground outside and spit out a mouthful of blood. He lay on the ground covered in dust and black all over.

"Someone come and protect me, there is an assassin."

Several palace guards yelled in panic and rushed into the yard to protect Xuanyuan Lie.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

At this time, a series of whooshing sounds were heard from the air, followed by shells falling from the sky one after another and hitting the Zen room.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom..."

The shells exploded one after another, and soon the meditation room was blasted into pieces with holes.

Although Xuanyuan Lie and several eunuchs were in the outer courtyard, they were not in a good condition as they were hit by the aftermath of the artillery explosion. They were all blown out of the courtyard by the blast and hit the ground, causing injuries. The flying iron pieces when the artillery exploded also caused them to have multiple injuries.

The temple gate.

Bai Jingtian yelled anxiously, "Gu Chan, are you crazy? What are you doing? Isn't this a gift? How can this thing explode?"

"Hmph! You dare to break my legs? Do you really think I'm easy to bully? I'm going to give him a gift today, and I'll see if he can accept it." Gu Chan snorted coldly and said angrily.

After saying that, she asked people to reload the shells and continue igniting and firing.

The shopkeepers standing at the back were all dumbfounded. They could never have imagined that the weapon Gu Chan asked them to make would be so powerful.

Of course, Gu Chan herself did not expect that the cannons and shells that she ordered people to rub by hand could have such great power. The most important thing is that she even mixed the black gunpowder on the spur of the moment and was not professional at all!

Seeing that Gu Chan refused to stop, Bai Jingtian stopped yelling in a hurry. He turned around and rushed into the temple. After a while, he and several palace guards quickly carried out Xuanyuan Lie, who was blown black and in a miserable state.

Following them in escaping were a group of monks from Lingjiu Temple.

Gu Chan didn't care about them and continued to ignite and fire the shells.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom..."

The sound of artillery shells exploding continuously erupted in Lingjiu Temple. By the time more than 30 shells had exploded, the entire Lingjiu Temple had been blown beyond recognition. Even the largest hall in the front yard had half of it collapsed, and the remaining half was already becoming shaky.

Gu Chan stood beside the cannon, raised her broken leg, stepped lightly on the hot turret, stared at the embarrassed Xuanyuan Lie and others in front of her and laughed, "How about it, are you satisfied with my gift?"

"Gu Chan, you are so bold that you even dare to blow me up?" Xuanyuan Lie lay on Bai Jingtian's back, raised his finger and pointed at Gu Chan and cursed.

Gu Chan deliberately looked at the people behind him and said, "Do you have any more shells? Fire another one. This time I will aim at the temple gate and try to get this gentleman to catch my great gift."

"Oh, master, I beg you, please give in! This is your little ancestor. Not only is he brave, but he is also not afraid of death. Why are you fighting with him? If he dies, he is dead. But it will be different if you die!" Bai Jingtian persuaded with a bitter face.

Xuanyuan Lie was originally furious, but when he heard Bai Jingtian's words, he calmed down instantly.

He and the Crown Prince were already vying for the throne, and if Gu Chan eliminated him here, the Crown Prince would not blame Gu Chan but would reuse him. Otherwise, how could Gu Chan be so bold as to use this newly developed weapon to attack him?

So now he understood that this little devil was probably something he couldn't afford to offend, and he had to coax him, otherwise he would be the only one who suffered in the end!
