Chapter 37
Late at night, Wutong Lane.

Lu Ziqi returned to the attic, pulled off the black scarf that covered his face, strode up to Chu Yuanyan who was sitting by the window, and respectfully handed him the things in his hand, "Master, I brought the things."

Chu Yuanyan quickly put down the book in his hand, reached out to take what was in Lu Ziqi's hand, and examined it carefully.

This thing is extremely ingenious. It is equipped with a bow and arrow-like ejection mechanism, and ten small arrows can be loaded at a time. Every time the mechanism buckle is pressed, one small arrow can be fired, and ten arrows can be shot continuously.

At this time, there were still three flat-headed small wooden arrows in the arrow box, he immediately lifted the object, imitating the appearance of the woman in Bai Ri, and shot an arrow towards the wall.

The small wooden arrow pierced through the air, and hit the decoration hanging on the wall quickly and accurately, making a resounding chirping sound of gold and wood.

Lu Ziqi was taken aback, and only then did he understand the usefulness of this thing. Excitement appeared in his eyes, and he said urgently: "Master, this hidden weapon is really powerful. If the wooden arrows are replaced with iron arrows, we can equip them with all the soldiers in the northern border. Not to mention blocking the Manzi from the northern border, it is not impossible to take the Manzi's capital directly."

At this time, Chu Yuanyan shot another arrow, with a little regret in his eyes, shaking his head and said: "No, the range is too short, so it can only attack at close range, it can't attack at long range, and it can't be used in large quantities on the battlefield. But—" He looked at the thing over and over, and then smiled again, "It's not that it can't be improved."

Lu Ziqi still couldn't hide his excitement. He glanced sideways at the side courtyard of Gu's family outside the window, and said with emotion: "I never thought that such a sharp weapon would be hidden in Gu's girl's boudoir, and I don't know where that girl got it from." Come, who is the capable person who made such a sharp weapon."

Lu Ziqi didn't know that this thing was actually made by the girl who lived in the small courtyard, but Chu Yuanyan knew it very well. He had seen that girl tinkering with this thing with his own eyes these days, but before today, He didn't know what the girl was messing with.

"Who is that girl from the Gu family?" Chu Yuanyan asked.

Lu Ziqi shook his head, "I don't know, but the residence is quite simple, it should not be a lady in the mansion, nor a servant of the mansion, maybe a guest from a distant family."

Chu Yuanyan was about to instruct Lu Ziqi to investigate the girl's details tomorrow, when Doctor Cui suddenly called from downstairs, "Why haven't you come down yet? Hurry up and take medicine and take a bath."

It is said to be a bath, but it is actually a medicinal bath. Every time he takes a bath, he feels like he has escaped from death. The medicinal liquid is like thousands of sharp knives, constantly cutting his body, and the pain makes him die.

Fortunately, after soaking in the medicated bath, he could clearly feel his strength slowly recovering.

Lu Ziqi hurriedly responded loudly: "Understood, I will come down immediately."

Interrupted by Dr. Cui, Chu Yuanyan temporarily forgot about investigating the girl's identity, and his mind was full of the tragedy of taking the medicine bath yesterday.

On the other side, Gu Zhi'an, who was sleeping soundly, didn't know that the small crossbow that he worked hard for several days had already become someone else's possession.

When she woke up in the morning, she saw two dazed girls.

"What's the matter with you? What's the matter?" Gu Zhian got off the bed and got dressed, and asked Hongying and Langqiao who looked strange.

Hongying glanced at the empty room, and asked: "Miss, didn't you give Lang Qiao a small crossbow yesterday? Did you see the small crossbow later?"

Gu Zhian frowned, "What do you mean? The crossbow is lost?"
