\tXue Shao returned to Black Sand City, sleepy and tired. But he didn't care about the overdraft of his physical strength, and as soon as he got off the horse, he walked into the largest mountain forest near Black Sand City with a few of his relatives.

Under Xue Shao's instructions, Xue Ne worked hard here for several years. In addition to building this dilapidated small earthen city into an impregnable military fort, he also raised a large number of military horses, which made Xue Shao have enough horses for the northern expedition today.

However, these are not the most important things.

The real "power" of Black Sand lies in the jungle that even ordinary generals can't easily enter. This mountain forest originally had no name, but because Pei Xingjian had fought here during the Northern Expedition, Xue Shao named it "Liansheng Mountain" to commemorate Pei Xingjian's two Northern Expedition victories. For him, of course, there is also a sense of motivation and encouragement.

Entering the mountain, the checkpoints are extremely strict. Xue Shao's face that can travel unhindered in the palace cannot be used as a pass when he arrives here, and he must have a military warrant issued by Xue Ne himself. After walking all the way in for a long time, from noon to evening, Xue Shao and his party finally stopped in front of a large cave. The entrance to the cave was sealed by a huge iron gate, guarded by dozens of heavily armed sergeants, and guarded by large killers such as the Fuyuan Giant Crossbow.

Among them, an old acquaintance finally recognized Xue Shao's face.

This old acquaintance may not be conspicuous in the Heisha area, but in the Central Plains, he is definitely the number one person who is famous in the rivers and lakes - Helian Guchuan!

No one would have thought that the first master of Hongmen would retire at the peak of his life. He handed over the Hongmen Gate to Huang Fujie, one of the four major masters, and then took his beloved beauty to retreat to the rivers and lakes, and disappeared from the world's sight overnight.

No one would have thought that Helian Guchuan, who should have enjoyed life after returning to seclusion in style, would appear on the edge of the black sand thousands of miles away, and never left this mountain forest again.

"Xue Gong, you're finally here!" Helian Guchuan is still the same old look, neither humble nor arrogant.

"Brother Helian, his spirit is still the same." Xue Shao looked him up and down, "It's the same, it hasn't changed." ”

"It's changed, it's changed a lot." Helian Guchuan smiled, "I used to think about myself all day long, but one day I didn't kill people and see blood, and I couldn't sleep well at night." Now, I'm like an old master in a country school, studying the slag of copper, iron, and wood all day long, and I can still enjoy myself! ”

"Haha!" Xue Shao laughed, "Life is really wonderful. Who would have thought that the famous Helian hero would be fascinated by such messy things? ”

"Xue Gong is right, I'm really fascinated." Helian Guchuan said with a smile, "I think I was just tired of the grievances and fights and killings in the rivers and lakes, and wanted to take my wife to hide far away and live a quiet rural life for a few days, but I plunged into this mountain and forest, and since then I have been with gunpowder, copper and iron, and can no longer be separated." ”

"Speaking of which, I'm still curious. How did you come up with the idea to help me research these things? Xue Shao asked.

"Because I've heard of a brown feat. It was very shocking. Helian Guchuan said.

"Which brown?"

"In the Battle of Nozhenshui, your troops rushed into the Turkic camp with a thunderbolt. It was that one thing that shook me deeply. Helian Guchuan said, "I have been adrift on the rivers and lakes for half my life, and there are no uncommon people who are righteous and angry. But I have never seen a large group of people who can talk about righteousness to such a level. Because of this shock, I became strangely interested in those bombing mines. The rest of the matter is logical. It's just because Helian Guchuan has always been happy and spontaneous in his life
