FARM GIRL TURNS EVERYTHING AROUND: SLY HUSBAND, LET'S FARM
Chapter 896 - 896 906 Its Gunpowder_1Chapter 896: Chapter 906: It’s Gunpowder_1 Chapter 896: Chapter 906: It’s Gunpowder_1 “Everyone stay where you are, don’t move!” Tong Sanlang stared at the pit for a few seconds, his handsome face dark like still water.
He wasn’t just addressing the busy servants in the backyard but also the people standing beside the pigsty and those scattered around the manor.
Standing atop the roof, his body as agile as a swallow, he traversed the distance and landed outside the courtyard where the guards lived.
Fan Linong had already rushed out, and upon seeing him, immediately asked, “What’s going on?”
“I don’t know, there was a sudden explosion in the backyard, seems like gunpowder, please Uncle Fan take a look,” Tong Sanlang said.
He had never seen real explosives, but he had heard about them from Qiao Xiaomai.
The explosion had created a big pit and even collapsed the surrounding wall—this was not something that could be done by human force; it must be gunpowder.
However, the gunpowder was tightly controlled in the hands of the Yang Family. Where it was produced and where it was usually stored were top-secret, known only to Yang Wenxiao and Emperor Yongan.
Even Crown Prince Yang Hao was kept in the dark.
But now, gunpowder had mysteriously appeared in the backyard—what was this situation?!
Fan Linong had never seen gunpowder either, but he knew of this divine weapon. Hearing Tong Sanlang’s words, he immediately realized the gravity of the situation.
If the secret of the gunpowder had been leaked, the consequences would be unimaginable.
“Follow me, everyone!” he barked at the guards in the courtyard.
“Use your light-footed skills, don’t walk on the ground, we don’t know if there is still gunpowder in the backyard,” Tong Sanlang reminded.
This was what was most terrifying.
Because of one explosion, they could no longer safely traverse other areas.
The whole manor had become a dangerous place.
He could guarantee that the ground where Miao Dali had commanded people to build the wall was absolutely safe before.
But now, gunpowder had mysteriously appeared all of a sudden—it had to be man-made!
Fan Linong also realized this, and his tall, burly body nimbly leaped onto the roof like a monkey, using his inner strength to bellow across the entire manor, “No one is allowed to move, stay where you are and await orders, or you will be executed on the spot!”
With gunpowder involved, one misstep could cost him his own life.
This was the Yang Family’s greatest deterrent against the Aristocratic Families, the most powerful weapon in ruling Daqi, and now it had been leaked—damn it, why did he have to stumble upon such a thorny issue!
“Listen up, everyone, guard the manor, don’t let anyone escape!” he then ordered his subordinates.
At his command, the guards who were originally patrolling and those who were idling in the courtyard immediately armed themselves with large sabers and surrounded the manor.
It was only then that Fan Linong followed Tong Sanlang to the backyard of the manor.
In the backyard, no one dared to move; the servant who had his leg injured in the explosion was still sitting on the ground, his face turning pale from excessive blood loss.
Seeing this, Tong Sanlang frowned, turned around, and went back to Mai Yuan to fetch the medical kit.
Because the manor was situated far from both villages and cities, he had specially prepared a medical kit for emergencies, which now proved to be quite useful.
The servant was a primary witness and couldn’t be allowed to faint.
Fan Linong began to interrogate the servant. With his towering height of one meter ninety, he stood before the man like a high tower, quite intimidating, “Whose family do you belong to? What’s your name?!”
“I—I belong to the Qiu Family, my young master is Qiu Ying, and I—I am called Yuanbao,” the man trembled as he replied.
