Traveling to Ancient Times: My Space Contains Weapons

Chapter 258 Taking Zhou Heng Back to the Capital

After calming down a bit, Zhou Shixun turned to Eunuch Wei and said.

"Old Wei, summon General Zhenguo to the palace. I have important matters to discuss with him."

After Eunuch Wei left, Zhou Shixun coldly muttered to himself, "The Divine Machine Army, let's take them out and test their power!"

After such a long period of intensive production, the crossbows were now sufficient to equip an army of tens of thousands.

Moreover, thanks to Zheng Jing's tireless research day and night, the crossbow has been improved and expanded, resulting in the creation of war chariots equipped with powerful crossbows and various other crossbow-related weapons.

Since the ambitious and treacherous Great Bear Kingdom is determined to break all pretense and attack Great Xia...

These things are a good opportunity to test its power.

The next day, Xiong Er came out of his room at the inn, shaking his head which was throbbing with pain.

They walked straight to the inn's counter.

"Shopkeeper, why am I here?"

The shopkeeper looked at the tall man and suddenly felt a little guilty.

“Honored guest, after you had a good time at the Hundred Flowers Pavilion yesterday, you came to my inn and bought several jars of fine wine and a table full of dishes. You have been staying in your room and haven’t come out yet.”

After hearing this, Xiong Er rubbed his head and asked, "Is this really true?"

"Honored guest, you are a wise and mighty warrior, how could I dare to deceive you?"

After hearing this, Xiong Er turned around and headed towards his inn room.

Upon opening the door, one discovers a dozen or so wine jars scattered inside, along with a table full of leftover food.

"Yes, I remember coming out of that White Flower Pavilion yesterday and fighting with those Great Xia monkeys, but I can't remember anything else. Turns out I was drunk again."

Seeing the mess, Xiong Er chuckled and turned to walk out of the inn.

As soon as I reached the door, I saw a young master and a man dressed in black, carrying a sword and wearing a bamboo hat, looking at me with smiles.

He immediately roared, "What are you looking at? You want a beating, you damned Xia monkey!"

"I'm talking about you two. Look again, and Grandpa will gouge your eyes out."

Upon seeing Xiong Er's appearance, Chu Chen and Chen Qingxuan immediately turned their heads to the side, pretending to be frightened.

Xiong Er seemed to enjoy this feeling and didn't bother to settle the bill with the innkeeper.

As he walked past Chen Qingxuan, he said, "Hmph, he's as skinny as a chick, yet he's carrying a sword and trying to act like a chivalrous hero."

Chen Qingxuan: Fuck you, you idiot.

However, he still didn't say anything, but stepped aside and even tucked the sword behind his back.

After hearing this, Xiong Er smiled, strode out of the inn, and headed towards the street.

After listening, Chu Chen nodded to Chen Qingxuan.

Chen Qingxuan pulled Chu Chen aside and asked, "You idiot, what kind of wine is that?"

"What's wrong? You want a drink?"

"I don't want to drink so much that you won't even recognize me."

The two smiled slightly at the innkeeper and then walked out of the inn.

It seems this guy really has a blackout; otherwise, why would he be so naturally swaggering around?

Time flies, and before we knew it, we were in our final year of junior high.

At noon, a group of people approached the city gate of Andu from afar.

In the middle of the procession, inside a super luxurious carriage, Zhou Heng wrapped his stab-proof vest tighter around himself.

He then tucked the switchblade into his sleeve before pulling back the carriage curtain and looking outside.

The city gate of Andu was unusually quiet at that moment.

Zhou Heng wore a safety helmet under a large hat.

In front of the luxurious carriage, an elderly soldier was riding slowly on horseback.

Meanwhile, on the walls of Andu, the soldiers were at their usual routine.

But there were two more men dressed as commoners, standing on the city wall, watching the approaching procession from afar.

Just as the procession was about to approach the city gate.

Suddenly, a large group of martial arts practitioners emerged from the bushes on both sides.

Among these martial arts figures, a man as tall as an iron tower stood at the very front, holding a spiked club.

On the other side, a young woman, holding a long sword, coldly watched the approaching group.

At that moment, someone shouted, "Brothers, it's time to serve our leader! Seize the people in the carriage and kill them!"

In an instant, the entire crowd rushed toward the carriage.

At this moment, the soldiers around the carriage tensed up and immediately drew their swords from their waists.

"Protect the young master and meet the enemy."

At this moment, everyone around the carriage looked tense.

It was like being suddenly attacked; the enemy was thrown into disarray in an instant.

Meanwhile, the Andu garrison on the city wall also sensed something was wrong and rushed out of the city gate.

But these ordinary soldiers were no match for Xiao Si and Xiong Er, and were instantly beaten to a pulp.

The battle was just a single exchange, and two people were already sitting in the carriage: Xiao Si and Xiong Er.

They pulled back the curtain and looked inside, confirming that it was indeed Zhou Heng.

Xiao Si instantly entered the carriage, placing a long sword against Zhou Heng's neck.

Xiong Er turned his horse around and drove the carriage towards the capital.

At that very moment, a fast horse also rushed out of the city gate of Andu.

Sitting atop it was another towering man, none other than Xiong Da.

Chu Chen watched all of this coldly, but he never noticed that the red swallow had flown out of the city.

"Could it be that Chi Yanfei went to the capital long ago?"

Chu Chen said to Chen Qingxuan and Mu Zheng beside him.

"That's impossible! I sent people disguised as ordinary citizens to patrol that mansion every day, and I haven't seen anyone leave!"

After listening, Mu Zheng also spoke up in confusion.

The soldiers, seeing the carriage disappear into the distance, chased after it for a while before turning back.

However, the old soldier had now changed into a Taoist robe and was taking a shortcut to chase after the carriage.

After Chu Chen saw that everything had calmed down, he turned around and spoke to Chen Qingxuan.

"You drunkard, go and see if that Red Swallow can fly."

Upon hearing this, Chen Qingxuan leaped down the city wall with a whoosh and headed towards the western suburban residence.

Not long after, Chen Qingxuan stood in the courtyard and took out a walkie-talkie: "Idiot, the person is long gone. I don't know how they got out."

"Then go in and check it out, see if there are any secret passages or mechanisms."

After listening, Chen Qingxuan put away the walkie-talkie and walked into the house.

After searching, he indeed found a secret passage under a large bed.

Without a second thought, Chen Qingxuan crawled down.

It was pitch black inside. After walking along the dark passage for a long time, we finally saw a light ahead.

When they led him to the entrance of the secret passage, they heard voices coming from outside.

"Alright, Master Tongtian, the people have been captured. Take them to the capital!"

"Then we'll have to trouble Mr. Xiong Da and Mr. Xiong Er. We'll go ahead!"

"It's alright, I'm faster."

After saying that, the sound of horses' hooves echoed into the distance.
