Chapter 192 The Emperor Wants Hand Grenades
Once everyone quieted down, they heard the sound of someone banging on the car window.
The group looked up and saw that Zhou Heng was now on the verge of tears.
"Damn it, you drunkard, let that guy out."
Seeing this, Chen Qingxuan walked to the car and opened the door for Zhou Heng.
As soon as Zhou Heng came out, he went straight to Chu Chen: "Brother Chu, how are you? Are you alright?"
"Uh, I'm fine. I'll get you a couple of toothbrushes later."
At this moment, Eunuch Wei, carrying a royal physician and a medicine box, also came to Chu Chen's side.
Upon seeing that Zhou Shixun and Zhou Heng were both present, the imperial physician quickly knelt down to pay his respects.
"No need for that. Quickly check on my sworn brother and see if he's alright."
Following the direction Zhou Heng pointed, the imperial physician saw Chu Chen sitting on the ground.
My sworn brother, the Eighth Prince's sworn brother, I must take a good look at him.
After saying that, she reached out and placed her hand on Chu Chen's wrist.
Seeing this, Chu Chen did not resist. Let him look if he wants to. Besides, this is an imperial physician.
In ancient times, he was undoubtedly the best traditional Chinese medicine doctor. You wouldn't regret having him examine your body.
However, Chu Chen soon regretted it.
Watching the old Chinese medicine doctor sometimes close his eyes, sometimes open them, and sometimes frown.
Chu Chen's heart was in his throat.
Originally, I only had a slight pain in my chest, but that Park Bu-cheng stabbed me.
If this old Chinese medicine doctor diagnosed me with a terminal illness, I'd be scared to death.
He has money, resources, and girls.
I don't want to go to the land of Laozi at such a young age.
After a long while, amidst the tense expressions of the group, the old Chinese medicine doctor finally put his hand down.
"Young master is in good health, but it is still not advisable to engage in sexual activity too frequently."
Holy crap, you old man, don't I have any dignity? In front of so many people.
Upon hearing the imperial physician's conclusion, Zhou Shixun and the others gave an awkward smile and turned their heads away.
Chen Qingxuan, pointing at Chu Chen, laughed: "Hahaha, you idiot, you dare to talk about me like that? Look..."
"Get lost, or I won't give you a free meal if you say that again."
"Um, Uncle Zhou, now that the crisis is over, how about we go inside and sit for a while?"
To ease the awkwardness, Chu Chen asked Zhou Shixun.
"Yes, yes, let's go inside. Thank you all for your help today. Master Zhu, you've all worked hard."
After speaking, guided by Eunuch Wei, the group walked into the main hall.
Chu Chen picked up the shotgun, got into the car, and then put it into his spatial storage.
Inside the main hall, the group sat down according to their status and rank.
"Chu boy, I'm particularly curious about your hidden weapon. Could you show it to everyone?"
Zhou Shixun looked at Chu Chen, who was sitting there drinking tea, and asked.
"Um, Uncle Zhou, this is my most precious possession, and there's only one of its kind in the entire Great Xia Dynasty, so it's inconvenient..."
"It's alright. I know you're no ordinary person. The fact that you're standing before me today is enough to prove your loyalty."
"In the future, I should spend more time with Lao Ba and teach him more."
Sehun was so agreeable today, he must have been up to something.
It seems I need to prepare early.
A grenade appeared, and a shotgun appeared among his weapons.
The machine gun was covered by camouflage cloth, so no one should have seen what it actually looked like.
Now, if Zhou Shixun wants to get it from his own hands...
It's most likely that it's the grenade.
If you really have to, just make up a lie and say you were ruined by a drunkard; that should be enough to get by.
If all else fails, give him a few crossbows to play with.
Judging from Zhou Shixun's nervous appearance today, as long as I don't make any unusual moves, he probably won't make a move against me in the short term.
At least in times of natural and man-made disasters, they won't harm themselves.
Of course, all of this was just Chu Chen's precaution; perhaps Zhou Shixun never intended to be Chu Chen's enemy at all.
At least in Zhou Shixun's eyes, this was his performance today.
Chu Chen was not only able to produce so many strange and unusual things.
Moreover, he possesses powerful hidden weapons and an invulnerable body.
With these points in mind, even if Zhou Shixun had that kind of idea, he would have to consider his own strength.
A person who can move through thousands of troops unscathed.
Few people would be foolish enough to be his enemy.
Seeing that Chu Chen didn't want to take it out, Zhou Shixun didn't press the matter further.
It's understandable if someone doesn't want to share their livelihood, but it's wrong to insist on having it.
That would make him a tyrant despised by everyone.
Moreover, even if you force yourself to have this kid, you still have to consider your own strength.
So he quickly changed the subject: "Gentlemen, you have done a great service today, what kind of reward would you like?"
"Your Majesty, this is our duty, there is no question of reward."
As soon as Zhou Shixun finished speaking, Zhu Liuxiang quickly stood up and replied with a smile.
Chu Chen was exasperated. "You're so arrogant, yet you still talk about your duty."
But since no one else wants it, I can't ask them to.
So he said to Zhou Shixun, "Every citizen has a responsibility for the rise and fall of the nation; this is our duty."
"Haha, good, good, everyone should learn from Chu Chen, especially the eighth brother."
Upon hearing Chu Chen's words, Zhou Shixun's face immediately lit up with a smile.
Zhou Heng also stood up: "Father, after we've resolved the refugee issue, I'll go and learn properly from my sworn brother."
After hearing this, Chu Chen thought to himself, "Oh no, another freeloader is here."
"Alright, this matter is over. It has only resolved a minor disturbance. My people of Great Xia are still suffering in dire straits."
"We'll discuss the reward later."
After saying that, he waved his hand and chased the group out.
"Chuwazi, please stay. Daoist, you've been fighting for a long time. Go and rest first."
Chu Chen watched Zhou Shixun wave, and was about to stand up and walk out when he was pulled back.
After everyone left, Zhou Shixun gestured for Chu Chen to sit down.
"Chu boy, there are no outsiders here. Can I take a look at that thing?"
"Uncle Zhou, I know what you want to say, but there's really only one of those, and there aren't any more for you."
"You child, you make it sound like I'm stealing something from you."
Zhou Shixun blushed as he looked at the serious-looking Chu Chen.
But then, he regained his composure: "I heard from Lao Ba that you have a Heavenly Thunder that can break through ten thousand armies?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Chen knew that the real purpose had arrived.
For Zhou Shixun, the hand grenade was far more useful than the shotgun.
"Uncle Zhou is talking about those black lumps, right? Chen Qingxuan, that drunkard, threw them all away today. If there are any more, you'll need to give me some time."
"This thing is extremely difficult to make, and the yield is very low."
“If Uncle Zhou is eager to strengthen the army, I can offer you something.”
Zhou Shixun's eyes dimmed slightly after hearing Chu Chen say that the production was difficult.
But then, he smiled broadly again.
"Oh, but what is it? Quickly, let your uncle take a look."
Seeing Zhou Shixun's anxious look, Chu Chen figured that the grenade incident was probably over.
Then he turned around and walked towards the car.
When he returned, he was carrying a brand new crossbow on his back.
