Be the Mayor From Today

Running and running, the sky was completely dark, and the surroundings were pitch black. There was no moonlight today, and the moon was blocked by dark clouds.

"Damn, why is there no moon tonight." Qiao Mu slowly stopped, the surroundings were very quiet and dark, only the chirping of insects and the roar of animals in the distance, he was already a little confused.

He started to regret it, he shouldn't have chosen to leave at night, and now he doesn't know where to go.

"I just came out of here, then keep going in this direction and you should be able to leave."

Qiao Mu thought about it, then stepped forward, taking every step carefully, he put the long sword in front of him, and poked hard with every step.

"Should be far away from that valley." Qiao Mu calculated the distance and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Huhuhu..."

Suddenly, Qiao Mu seemed to hear something, which made him frown.

His footsteps stopped for a while, and he continued to walk forward, one step or two, nothing happened, and the heart that he raised was put down again.

"Ta Tata..."

Continuing to walk a few steps forward, the long sword seemed to have stabbed something, and the texture was a bit hard. After poking it hard a few times, I could feel that the object was very large and blocked the way.

"What is it?" Qiao Mu frowned and slowly moved his hand forward.

It was cold and uneven, and it seemed to move.

"Can move?" Qiao Mu's face changed, his whole body trembled, and he turned to run.

But the next moment, a tyrannical roar sounded in his ear, Qiao Mu's head was a little blank, he knew what it was, it was clearly a sleeping giant beast.

There was bitterness in the corners of his mouth. He didn't expect that in the end, he would directly throw himself into the net, and he walked into the valley and bumped directly into the giant beast.

He regretted it. He had known that he would not be able to come out of the cave, and now he had nothing to say.

"what......"

The screams suddenly sounded, but stopped abruptly.

"One update, (￣▽￣). Please support."

Chapter 827 Black powder production.

The next day, in Xiyang City, Liu Feng and Mina had just finished breakfast and got on the carriage to the scientific research department.

"Ta Tata..."

Today, the itinerary of Liu Feng and Mina is kept secret, because the two are going to inspect the black powder workshop.

Currently, there are only a handful of people who know gunpowder, and Mina is one of them.

Although she knew the existence of gunpowder, Mina didn't know its power and terrifying degree. Liu Feng didn't plan to expose it too early.

Simply, Mina is also a sensible person who knows what to ask and what not to ask.

"Ta Tata..."

Soon, the carriage stopped in front of the scientific research department. After Liu Feng nodded at the saluting soldier, he brushed his face and entered the scientific research department, and finally came to the deepest part of the scientific research department.

This is an open area with soldiers on the ground. There is only a small cement house in the middle of the open area. Apart from that, there are no other buildings around, just a lawn.

Originally, there was a big pit here, but later Liu Feng asked people to continue digging down this pit.

Finally, the foundation was laid and an underground research room was built. After filling the soil on it and planting grass on the ground, it was impossible to see that there was a secret research room underground.

And here is the place where Liu Feng used to develop gunpowder. The surrounding area is wide enough. The first is for confidentiality, and the second is because it is not easy to be approached and sneaked in.

On the ground, 24 hours a day, there are several teams of soldiers patrolling, and there is no chance for people to approach in the open space.

As soon as someone appears, in this open field, they will be seen at a glance, and the next moment they will be directly surrounded by soldiers.

The entrance to this underground research room is the small cement room. There are dozens of soldiers guarding it. The cement room has no windows. There is only a door made of stainless steel. There is also a large lock that is locked and cannot be easily opened. Only those with Liu Feng's warrant can enter and exit.

Liu Feng brought Mina here, and the soldier guarding the gate hurriedly saluted.

"Open the door."

"Yes." The soldier responded respectfully, took out a key from his body, and opened the lock.

"Crack..."

Then two more soldiers stepped forward and took out the key, and the three of them slowly opened the gate. This was for safety's sake, so the thickness of the gate was made a few centimeters. It took three people's keys to open the door together. Gotta open.

Liu Feng calmly walked in with Mina. There was nothing in the house, only a staircase leading to the ground.

"Ta Ta Ta..."

Liu Feng took out the flashlight prepared in advance and walked underground, only the sound of footsteps echoed.

The stairs are not deep, and they end soon. Then there is a passage. Going forward, another door appears. There are four soldiers guarding here.

"Open the door." Liu Feng said solemnly.

"Yes." The soldier responded, the door would be lighter, and the two would open.

Behind the door are two rooms, one of which has a wooden sign on it that says the clothing room, and the other is completely closed.

At the door of the closed room, there were four special forces guarding the door.

Liu Feng nodded to the four of them, and took Mina into the closed room. When he entered the room, he saw eight researchers busy on the workbench.

They were all wearing linen clothes, and they were not allowed to bring anything about iron into the research room. This was for the sake of safety, and the materials and materials used in the entire research room were all wood products.

"..." Mina looked at everything inside in amazement and wanted to ask something, but thinking of the seriousness she had come all the way, she finally suppressed her curiosity.

The appearance of Liu Feng and the two attracted the attention of these eight people, and they all put down their work, with respectful and awe-inspiring smiles on their faces.

Liu Feng asked Mina to find these eight people. They were born or acquired dumb and could not read. This is what Liu Feng wanted, in order to prevent the secret of gunpowder from leaking out.

･･････････････････････････････

As for why they are so happy, it is because Liu Feng promised to take good care of their family, and their monthly salary here is two silver coins, which is why they are happy.

Of course, the price is that after the black powder comes out, they will not be able to leave this research room for a long time.

Their future life will be restricted. For example, build a courtyard in Xiyang City, let them live in it, and prevent them from having too much contact with the outside world.

They know about this, but they don't care, because they think that the salary of two silver coins per month, two silver coins per month, can make their families live well.
