Chapter 205 Firearms and Qi Devices
"Fan Xian, do you know the origin of the [Qi Weapon] in Tiansha Palace?"
Chen Pingping said suddenly.
"You don't even understand how I would know."
Fan Xian said this on the surface, but in his heart he had some speculations of his own.
The effect of the [Qi Weapon] is very similar to that of a cultivator's magic weapon.
Fan Xian seriously doubted that the master of Tiansha Palace was an immortal cultivator!
"[Qi Qi] was a product that appeared together with the rise of Tiansha Palace three years ago, but I don't think much of it."
Chen Pingping's eyes flashed with a glint.
"What do you mean? Did you get the news that [Qi Qi] appeared before the Tiansha Palace was established?"
Fan Xian guessed.
"It's not news, it's something I saw with my own eyes."
Chen Pingping said something specious, which confused Fan Xian.
"Dean, are you talking about that incident back then?"
Wang Qinian was stunned.
"Old Wang, do you also know?"
"I'm just guessing."
Wang Qinian recalled: "It is said that the late emperor was not favored when his nine sons took over the throne, and the late emperor never thought of passing the throne to the late emperor.
But at this time, something strange happened. Several other princes who had great hopes of seizing the throne died mysteriously! "
"...Xianxian Emperor, what a weird statement."
Fan Xian complained and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Could it be that the Tiansha Palace appeared at that time and assassinated the princes at that time!"
Chen Pingping took over the conversation and said: "No.
At that time, in front of the public, there was a loud noise, like thunder from the sky, and one of the princes was blown into several pieces, with bloody flesh.
Coincidentally, not long after, another prince also died mysteriously, in the same way.
Everyone in the world said that they were the ones who did the deeds that angered God and made God angry and sent down the thunder of God’s Punishment!
In the end, the princes who were expected to take over the throne died like this.
Your Majesty's father, King Cheng at that time, successfully ascended the throne, and your Majesty had the opportunity to inherit the throne. "
Speaking of this, Chen Pingping suddenly laughed.
Fan Xian was stunned and said: "You are suspecting that those princes were not killed by divine thunder, but were killed by a powerful offensive [Qi Weapon]!"
"That's right."
Chen Pingping nodded and said: "It was only later that I learned that that thing was related to your mother. She did all this to help His Majesty.
So as soon as [Qiqi] appeared, I felt that it was inseparable from your mother.
Now it seems that someone just got part of your mother's inheritance or inheritance. "
Chen Pingping sighed again.
Fan Xian pondered for a moment and said, "Do you know that when those princes died, the smell of gunpowder smoke appeared somewhere nearby?"
"The smell of gunpowder..."
Chen Pingping frowned and said: "The past is dark and cannot be traced back... When that incident happened, I was only half a boy, so I didn't know the details.
However, it was related to the prince. The supervisory department at that time conducted an investigation inside and outside Kyoto. There should be records in the files. Maybe there is a backup in the hospital? "
"Okay, I'll find it for you!"
Wang Qinian stood up. Before he was fired by Zhu Ge, he was a clerk in the Inspection Institute, responsible for guarding files.
"Go ahead."
Chen Pingping took out a token.
"If you go with this thing, no one will stop you."
"good!"
Fan Xian and Chen Pingping waited for a while and then saw Wang Qinian trotting over hurriedly holding a scroll with some dust on it.
"Found it! Let me wipe it for you!"
With that said, Wang Qinian used his sleeves to wipe away the dust on the scroll.
Seeing this, Fan Xian laughed and scolded: "Well, Wang Qinian, you can wipe off the dust first and then bring it over, but you have to wipe it in front of us, right?"
Seeing that his little thoughts were discovered, Wang Qinian was not upset. He smiled and complimented: "Sir, you have a sharp eye." "Okay, bring the things."
Fan Xian rolled his eyes, took the scroll from Wang Qinian, and read it carefully.
"Found it!"
Fan Xian's eyes brightened slightly, and he pointed out the weirdness to Chen Pingping.
"On the day when the prince died, there was a majestic mountain beside Kyoto, with smoke and clouds lingering on its top, and the smell of salt and sulfur lingering for a long time... What can this sentence mean?"
Chen Pingping was confused.
"Well, in short, the 'sky thunder' that blasted the two princes into pieces was probably not a [Qi weapon], but a very powerful firearm."
Fan Xian explained.
He guessed that it should be the sniper rifle made by my mother, and it was also a large-caliber sniper scope like a Barrett.
Anti-material sniper rifles are specially designed to deal with tanks and aircraft. They can even penetrate helmets and armor. If they act on people, they will be blown to pieces.
"firearm……"
Chen Pingping's pupils shrank, and her hands subconsciously brushed the armrests of the iron wheelchair.
"Do you think firearms are not [Qi weapons]?"
"Yes, there is a big difference between the two. I don't know how to explain it, but they are not the same thing after all."
"I understand, but this does not rule out that Tiansha Palace is related to your mother."
Fan Xian hesitated to speak, holding different opinions.
During this time, he learned a lot about these two parties.
My mother, Ye Qingmei, should be a force on the technology side, such as the ‘Tian Lei’ that is suspected of being a large-caliber sniper rifle, and the robot Uncle Wu Zhu.
I am also good at business and invented colored glaze, soap, perfume...
On the other hand, Tiansha Palace is on the side of cultivating immortals. Whether it is the [Qi Weapon] or the weird martial arts, this can be proved.
‘Perhaps the Tiansha Palace was established only a short time ago, but its intelligence network is stronger than that of the Inspection Bureau because of the methods of the immortal cultivators, such as soul searching. ’
Fan Xian shuddered. The unknown is the most terrifying.
“By the way, have you ever thought that the old doctor Meng is related to the Tiansha Palace?”
“Why do you think so?”
Chen Pingping was even more confused. Why did he start to lose track of this kid’s thinking?
“Uh…”
“Still can’t explain it?”
“Well, maybe even if I explain it, you won’t understand it.”
Fan Xian said seriously.
Now that he thinks about it carefully, the methods of the old doctor Meng are no longer in the category of medical skills, but rather like healing techniques!
Chen Pingping smiled and said, "Well, I'll help you pay attention to this matter.
But don't hold your hopes too high. His Majesty has asked the Inspection Bureau to investigate Mr. Meng's background for many years.
We have investigated everything that should be investigated. What we can't find out...it was impossible before, and it's impossible now."
"Okay."
Fan Xian shrugged and said, "I also want to know what you think of the third prince."
"The third prince, he is not a simple person."
Hearing this, Fan Xian took out the palace map that Bai Jing drew for him.
"It's very detailed. Did the third prince give it to you, or did you ask for it?"
"I asked for it."
Chen Pingping understood and said, "You suspect that he is behind this matter."
"Yeah!"
"It's impossible. No matter how powerful he is, he is just a prince. Tiansha Palace will not obey him.
If Tiansha Palace is really in his hands, it's a big deal. Your Majesty should abdicate as soon as possible."
