The Ming Dynasty: Starting with the Somersault Cloud, Old Zhu was so envious he cried!
Chapter 42 What do you mean by "testing poison on oneself"? It was all because of a cravin
Even though they knew that the Sixth Prince could summon auspicious clouds and ride the clouds like a god.
But isn't this speed a bit too fast?
This is even faster than the readers; it's over before they've even taken their pants off!
However, after a brief moment of shock,
The sense of responsibility he felt as the commander-in-chief of the armed forces instantly overshadowed his personal shock.
Xu Da immediately recalled the desperate situation of the entire army being cut off from water, and his eyes suddenly became urgent as he stared intently at Zhu Ming.
His Highness the Sixth Prince can travel thousands of miles in an instant and ride the clouds and mist, so he must possess extraordinary magical abilities!
Then praying for rain for everyone shouldn't be a problem, right?
Xu Da hurriedly bowed and greeted them, his voice full of anticipation: "Sixth Prince! You can summon auspicious clouds and travel a thousand miles in an instant. Could you please use your supernatural powers to pray for a heavy rain for my army, relieving our entire northern army from the water shortage crisis!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Ming immediately shook his head and said earnestly, "No, my master hasn't taught me the magic of rainmaking yet. I don't know it!"
From the time he acquired the system until now, only a day and a half has passed at most.
I received a total of 4 awards.
He even gave one of them to his mother.
None of the remaining three can bring rain.
The light in Xu Da's eyes dimmed slightly, but he refused to give up and quickly asked, "Then...then could you travel back and forth to the capital to transport large quantities of clean water here?"
"If we can get water, we can save the entire army—tens of thousands of brothers' lives!"
Upon hearing this,
Empress Ma and Xu Miaoyun both looked at Zhu Ming, their eyes filled with eager anticipation.
"That's easy, I can do it!" Zhu Ming nodded readily, but then waved his hand, a hint of smugness on his face. "But there's no need to go through all that trouble, I have an even better way!"
Hearing this,
Xu Da's dim eyes instantly lit up with a blazing light, filled with hope, and his body tensed up instinctively.
Not only him, but even Empress Ma and Xu Miaoyun, who were standing to the side, subconsciously held their breath and stared intently at Zhu Ming.
Could it be that the little guy possesses other, even more powerful, supernatural abilities besides manipulating the heavens and earth and riding the clouds?
Just as everyone was filled with anticipation,
Zhu Ming reached his two small hands into his pockets and began rummaging through them.
A moment later, his eyes lit up, and the next second he pulled out a strangely shaped object from his pocket that looked like a faucet.
"Found it!"
Zhu Ming imitated Doraemon's classic pose from the cartoon, holding up the object he pulled from his pocket with his little hand and proudly shouting, "Ta-da! Juice converter!"
Xu Da stared at the strange object he had never seen before for a long time.
As a result, nothing could be discerned.
Isn't this just a small toy made of cast iron?
Could it solve the crisis of the entire army being without water?
Xu Da simply couldn't imagine how such a small thing could extract a continuous stream of clean water to save tens of thousands of soldiers!
So he turned to ask Empress Ma, who was standing to the side.
"Sister-in-law, do you know what the Sixth Prince pulled out?"
Empress Ma thought to herself,
You ask me? Who should I ask?
This was the first time she had ever seen this thing!
"Ming'er, what kind of instrument is this fruit you mentioned? How is it used? Can it really solve the army's water shortage crisis?" Empress Ma asked doubtfully.
Zhu Ming waved the object in his hand, his childish voice brimming with confidence, and patiently explained, "It's very simple. Just connect this faucet to any water source."
"Whether it's muddy water, polluted desert water, or any other kind of water, it can all be transformed into cool, sweet juice!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Da's face was full of suspicion.
It wasn't that he didn't believe what the Sixth Prince said, but rather that such a thing was too unbelievable!
With just this small object,
Can it turn toxic water into sweet fruit juice?
What is the principle behind it?
This is simply not scientific!
Zhu Ming was too lazy to explain to them; they wouldn't believe him unless he presented the facts to them.
So he directly instructed the adjutant beside him, "Young man, could you please fetch a bucket of water?"
Upon hearing this, the deputy general froze on the spot, subconsciously turning his head to look at the commander-in-chief Xu Da beside him, waiting for him to nod in agreement.
The result was a crisp "snap" sound.
Xu Da slapped his deputy on the back of the head, glared at him, and roared, "What are you looking at me for? Do what His Highness the Sixth Prince tells you to do right now! If you're a second late, I'll break your legs!"
The lieutenant covered his head with both hands, wincing in pain, and felt extremely aggrieved.
"You were the one who said it! You're the boss in the military, and everyone has to look up to you before doing anything. How could I dare to make decisions on my own!"
Unfortunately, he only dared to think these things to himself.
He didn't dare say it to his face, otherwise he would have received more than just a slap.
So, the deputy general, full of resentment, dared not delay for even a moment and rushed out of the tent to fetch water for the Sixth Prince.
After he left.
Xu Da quickly bowed and smiled sheepishly at Zhu Ming, saying, "Sixth Prince, Xiao Gu is just being immature, please don't take it to heart!"
Zhu Ming looked up with a blank expression.
The little guy was completely unaware that someone had just offended him.
Upon seeing this, Xu Da couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "The Sixth Prince is truly kind-hearted!"
Before long, the lieutenant returned, panting, carrying a large bucket of murky, stagnant water.
The water in the bucket was dark and murky, with impurities floating on the surface and strange foam rising to the top.
It even constantly emitted a pungent, foul odor.
In terms of filth, it's comparable to the Ganges River in India; just looking at it makes you want to vomit.
No wonder Xu Da and his men would rather die of thirst than drink the river water.
Who could possibly drink something like that?
Upon seeing this, Zhu Ming immediately pinched his nose with one hand, his face full of disgust.
He first had his lieutenant put the bucket on the table, then took out the juice converter and casually stuck it to the side of the wooden bucket.
No drilling or fixing is required. A flash of bright white light suddenly appears, and the juice converter instantly merges seamlessly with the wooden barrel.
Immediately afterwards, Zhu Ming picked up an empty wine glass and gently turned on the tap.
slam-la-
Everyone's pupils shrank instantly, their faces filled with shock!
The foul-smelling, murky, and unsightly water that was originally in the bucket was drained through the juice converter.
It turned into clear, transparent juice.
The fruity aroma is sweet and refreshing, with a subtle sweetness that wafts over you, and you can't see a trace of sewage at all!
This unbelievable scene before my eyes...
The sight left Xu Da, Empress Ma, and Xu Miaoyun, who were inside the tent, completely stunned. They stared intently at the water tap, unable to recover for a long time.
Zhu Ming filled a glass with juice, turned it off casually, and proudly twirled around in front of everyone, holding the glass up.
Then, a childish voice rang out.
"Look, this is the juice converter; now it's turned into juice!"
After saying that, Zhu Ming's throat moved slightly, and he raised his hand, intending to drink the juice in the glass in one gulp.
"Your Highness, you mustn't!"
Several urgent shouts suddenly rang out at the same time.
Empress Ma quickly stepped forward and stopped him, her expression both tense and moved.
Xu Da and Xu Miaoyun also rushed forward to dissuade him, their faces full of earnestness.
"His Highness the Sixth Prince is of noble birth and of the highest order; we must not take any risks!"
"This water has just been transformed from turbid water; its true nature is unknown. Let me test it first!"
The crowd held Zhu Ming back tightly, and no one was willing to give in an inch.
In their eyes,
The Sixth Prince, young and kind-hearted, seeing the army in dire straits due to lack of water, decided to test the poison on himself.
He risked his own safety to prove that this magical artifact was harmless and to save tens of thousands of soldiers!
For a moment, everyone felt a mix of emotions, their eyes slightly reddening, filled with admiration and gratitude for Zhu Ming.
Only Zhu Ming himself looked completely bewildered.
What do you mean by testing poison on yourself?
The little guy wanted to drink it simply because he was craving it!
