Chapter 205 Firearms and Qi Devices

"Fan Xian, do you know the origin of the [Qi Device] in the Tiansha Palace?"

Chen Pingping said suddenly.

"You haven't figured it out yet, so how can I know?"

Fan Xian said this on the surface, but he had some guesses of his own in his heart.

The effect of that [Qi Qi] is very similar to the magic weapon of immortal cultivators.

Fan Xian seriously suspected that the Lord of Tiansha Palace was an immortal cultivator!
"The [Qi Instrument] was a product that appeared when the Tiansha Palace rose to prominence three years ago, but I don't think much of it."

A gleam of light flashed across Chen Pingping's eyes.

"What do you mean? Did you get the news that the [Qi Instrument] had already appeared before the Tiansha Palace was established?"

Fan Xian guessed.

"It's not news, it's more like seeing it with my own eyes."

Chen Pingping's ambiguous words confused Fan Xian.

"Dean, are you talking about that incident from that year?"

Wang Qinian was stunned.

"Old Wang, you know that too?"

"I am just guessing."

Wang Qinian recalled: “It is said that the late emperor was not favored when his nine sons competed for 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 becoming the heir apparent all died mysteriously! "

"…Emperor, what a weird statement."

Fan Xian complained, then narrowed his eyes slightly: "Could it be that the Heavenly Demon Palace appeared at that time and assassinated those princes at that time!"

Chen Pingping took over the conversation and said, "No.

At that time, in front of everyone, there was a loud bang, like a roar of thunder, and one of the princes was blown into several pieces, a bloody mess.

Coincidentally, not long after, another prince also died in the same strange way.

Everyone said that they had done something that angered heaven and man, which angered God and caused him to send down thunderbolts as punishment!
In the end, all the princes who had a chance to succeed the throne died like this.

Your Majesty's father, the then King Cheng, successfully ascended the throne, and Your Majesty had the opportunity to inherit the throne."

At this point, Chen Pingping suddenly laughed.

Fan Xian suddenly realized, and said, "You are suspecting that those princes did not die from the divine thunder, but fell from a powerful offensive [Qi weapon]!"

"Yes."

Chen Pingping nodded and said, "It was only later that I learned that the thing was related to your mother. She did all this to help Your Majesty.

So when the [Qi Qi] appeared, I felt that it was closely related to your mother.

Now it seems that someone just got part of your mother's inheritance or heritage."

Chen Pingping sighed again.

Fan Xian pondered for a moment and said, "Do you know if there was any smell of gunpowder nearby when those princes died?"

"The smell of gunpowder..."

Chen Pingping frowned and said, "The past is dark and cannot be retrieved... When that incident happened, I was just a teenager and I don't know the details.

However, since this is related to the prince, the supervisory department at that time conducted a thorough investigation inside and outside Kyoto, so there should be files and records. Maybe there are backups in the court?"

"Okay, I'll find it for you!"

Wang Qinian stood up. Before he was expelled by Zhu Ge, he was a clerk in the Inspection Institute, responsible for looking after the archives.

"Go."

Chen Pingping took out a token.

"If you take this with you, no one will stop you."

"it is good!"

Fan Xian and Chen Pingping waited for a while, and then they saw Wang Qinian trotting over hurriedly holding a scroll with a little dust on it.

"Found it! Let me wipe it for you!"

As he spoke, Wang Qinian wiped the dust off the scroll with his sleeve.

Seeing this, Fan Xian laughed and scolded, "Wang Qinian, you can wipe off the dust first and then bring it over. Why did you have to wipe it in front of us?"

Seeing that his little trick was discovered, Wang Qinian was not annoyed. He smiled and complimented, "Your Excellency has a good eye." "Okay, bring the things here."

Fan Xian rolled his eyes, took the scroll from Wang Qinian and read it carefully.

"found it!"

Fan Xian's eyes lit up slightly, and he pointed out the strangeness to Chen Pingping.

"On the day of the prince's death, there was a towering mountain beside the capital. The top of the mountain was shrouded in clouds and smoke, and the smell of saltpeter and sulfur lingered for a long time... What does this sentence mean?"

Chen Pingping was puzzled.

"Well, anyway, the 'sky thunder' that blasted the two princes into pieces of meat should not be a [Qi weapon], but a very powerful firearm."

Fan Xian explained.

He guessed that it should be the sniper rifle that his mother made, and it should be a large-caliber sniper scope like the Barrett.

Anti-material sniper rifles are specially used to deal with tanks and planes. They can even penetrate steel helmets and armor. If used on humans, they will be blown into pieces.

"firearm……"

Chen Pingping's pupils shrank slightly, and his hands subconsciously brushed over the armrests of the iron wheelchair.

"You think firearms are not [Qi weapons]?"

"Yes, there is a huge 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 the possibility that the Tiansha Palace is related to your mother."

Fan Xian hesitated to speak, holding a different opinion.

During this time he has learned a lot about both parties.

I, Ye Qingmei, should be the force on the technological side, such as the 'Tianlei' which is suspected to be a large-caliber sniper rifle, and the robot Uncle Wuzhu.

I am also good at business. I invented glass, soap, perfume...

On the other hand, the Tiansha Palace is the side of cultivating immortals, and both the [Qi Equipment] and the strange martial arts can prove this.

'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 used by the immortal cultivators, such as soul searching.'

Fan Xian shuddered. The unknown is the most terrifying thing.

"By the way, have you ever thought that the old doctor Meng is related to the Tiansha Palace?"

“How come you see?”

Chen Pingping was even more confused. Why was he unable to keep up with this kid's thinking?

"Uh……"

"Still can't explain?"

"Well, maybe even if I explain it, you still won't understand."

Fan Xian said seriously.

Now thinking back carefully, Mr. Meng's methods are no longer in the realm of medical skills, but rather more 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 checked everything that should be checked, and there is nothing we can do now. "

"Ok."

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 either."

Hearing this, Fan Xian took out the map of the imperial palace that Bai Jing had drawn for him.

"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 was behind this."

"Ok!"

“That’s impossible. No matter how powerful he is, he is just a prince. The Tiansha Palace will not obey him.

If the Tiansha Palace is really in his hands, it will cost you your life. Your Majesty should abdicate as soon as possible."
