Chapter 64: Swords, guns and clubs, provided!

 When I heard her say that.

Someone echoed: "Yes! We have a pack of wolves in Ningning, so we are not afraid of anyone!"

Uncle Liu said, "We can't just rely on Ning Ning, otherwise what will we be like!"

“There are so many men in the village, how about we form our own patrol team and take shifts according to the hour?”

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Ye immediately agreed: "Uncle Liu's idea is good."

 Suddenly many villagers expressed their willingness to join.

 Finally, six teams were divided, each with nine prime-age villagers.

  Shen Ningning also agreed with the Black Wolf King that when encountering danger, he could not act alone and had to join everyone!

 In this way, there is no fear of the wolves being hurt alone.

 After returning home.

 Shen Ningning immediately entered the fairyland.

 She dragged out many swords, spears and clubs from the hall of weapons.

 Most of the villagers have sticks and sickles in their hands, but few weapons.

 The little guy thinks that these things of hers can be put to great use!

But she was too tired from moving back and forth, so she finally brought a basin in with spiritual spring water in it. After putting the weapon in and washing it, the blade seemed to have been sharpened, making it even sharper!

Shen Ningning was very busy.

 “Long sword, long knife, dagger and axe… Well, I also have a meteor hammer!”

 She picked up a hammer bigger than her head.

But it was too heavy. The little guy said "Ouch" and fell backward.

He fell solidly on his butt.

 Her dark eyes were wet with tears in her pain.

"It hurts..." Shen Ningning looked pitiful.

This is not the end yet.

 She bumped into the shelf behind her, and a small box where the gunpowder had been placed fell, soaking in water and scattering a bunch of white stones!

 The pungent smell came.

"Bah, bah, bah!" the little guy choked and spat.

 She quickly went to check the gunpowder rack.

 These are all packed one by one, with four small boxes for one serving.

There are pieces of paper stuck on it, which are: sulfur, realgar, saltpeter and honey.

Shen Ningning looked at it in confusion. She could guess that this was a recipe, and it was probably meant to be used together.

 She picked up the small box from the water that she just accidentally knocked down. There was a piece of paper on it with the word "saltpeter" written on it.

Shen Ningning looked at the saltpeter curiously. When it was soaked in water, it shone like stars in the sun.

 “Wow~ It’s so amazing!” she sighed.

 She doesn’t know yet what effect gunpowder has, but it looks like it must be very powerful!

 After all, the smell alone was too much for her to resist!

Shen Ningning pushed the basin aside, hugged the washed weapons, and walked out of the fairyland first.

 She put all the swords, guns and clubs on the carriage at the door, waiting to be taken to the village tomorrow.

  After all this work, the little man was so tired that he gasped for air.

The round little face was as red as a cloud, and the dark eyes were sparkling.

 The night was dark and Grandma Qin had already fallen asleep.

The Black Wolf King came over and rubbed Shen Ningning's little face, asking her to rest.

Instead, the little guy touched the Black Wolf King's head: "I'm going to tidy up the fairyland, and then I'm going to rest!"

 The gunpowder you just knocked down needs to be taken care of.

However, when Shen Ningning went in this time, she saw an incredible scene!

The saltpeter fell into the basin of water, and the water actually froze!

 Her eyes widened and she rubbed them twice, unable to believe what she saw.

Shen Ningning quickly stepped forward with her little feet and carefully touched the water with her hand.

 Thin ice will break into pieces when you press it!

 “It’s really frozen!” The little guy was particularly surprised.

If you can drink ice water, you will definitely have a very comfortable life this summer!

But…

 Shen Ningning lowered her head, held up the ice water in her little hand and smelled it.

 What a bad smell.

 When you drink water, you will definitely have a stomachache!

 The little guy sat down on the ground, holding his chin in his hands and thinking. "Well... what should I do..." She lowered her long eyelashes and looked at the basin, and suddenly her eyes lit up: "Yes!"

 She stood up and brought in another small basin from outside the fairyland.

 Both basins are filled with water, and the small basin is placed inside the larger basin.

 It's just that Shen Ningning put the saltpeter in the big basin.

 This is done because water containing saltpeter should not be drunk.

 However, if the separate basin is frozen, the ice water in the small basin should be no problem!

 Shen Ningning plans to give it a try.

“If the water in the small basin can also freeze, you can drink clean ice water!” The little guy was particularly looking forward to it.

Early the next morning, she opened her eyes and couldn't wait to go into the fairyland to see what was going on.

When Shen Ningning saw the water in her small basin, which was frozen and solid, her little body jumped up and cheered.

 “Great! I succeeded!”

 She hesitantly hugged the heavy wooden basin and ran out.

“Grandma! Grandma, look, I made ice cubes! You can eat and drink them!”

Grandma Qin was washing vegetables when she heard the words and came over with the wolves.

“It’s really ice!” Grandma Qin was surprised. She touched it repeatedly and her hands were frozen!

Shen Ningning put the wooden basin on the ground, and the wolves gathered around the ice to inspect it.

 The weather is hot, and the earth is steaming with layers of heat waves.

But there was a faint cool air surrounding the wooden basin.

Wolf Si couldn't hold it back anymore, so he stuck out his tongue and took a lick.

  嚯! So cool!

The Black Wolf King saw it and roared angrily.

 No future!

Shen Ningning's smiling eyebrows were arched, like twinkling stars: "Lick, lick, lick, it's okay! From now on, we will be people with ice!"

 In order for both grandma and the wolves to enjoy.

 Shen Ningning brought out several boxes of saltpeter.

 Do the same thing, use all the pots in the house to hold water to make ice, and put them in the cellar.

 She wiped the sweat from her forehead with her little hand: "It will definitely turn into ice by night!"

Grandma Qin said with a smile: "What a good thing! Ning Ning is really awesome."

 She was worried a few days ago that the weather was getting hotter and hotter, and the wind from the seven-wheel fan was not cool enough.

Shen Ningning couldn't bear the heat, and the wolves had long hair, which made it even more unbearable.

 But if there are ice cubes, everyone will feel much better!

 At first, the piece of ice in the wooden basin was licked by Lang Si, so Grandma Qin poured the ice cube out of the wooden basin and placed it on the ground.

The wolves got the permission of the Black Wolf King and took turns licking the ice.

 So cool!

 Having been busy all morning, Shen Ningning simply ate some cold skin made by grandma at noon, and bit into two skewers of chicken meatballs.

After eating and drinking, she didn't bother taking a nap, so she took the wolves and the carriage to Xiangyun Village.

 She had to deliver weapons to the villagers.

As soon as Chen Ye saw the weapons in the carriage, his steady eyes became a little surprised.

 “So many knives that cut iron like clay...” are even sharpened.

Chen Ye looked at Shen Ningning in surprise and admiration: "Miss, you spent a lot of money!"

 He thought Shen Ningning bought it from the city for them to use for self-defense.

The little guy didn't take the initiative to explain this beautiful misunderstanding. He just smiled sweetly and revealed his pear dimples.

 “That’s right, protect the village, this is my home too!” Shen Ningning handed over the task of dividing weapons to Chen Ye.

 He has been on the battlefield as a soldier and knows how to make arrangements.

Just when Shen Ningning wanted to see the crazy scholar, Deng Fugui came running from the entrance of the village—

“Sister Xiaolang! Sister Xiaolang! The nobles in the palace are here to see you again!”

 Author's note: The ice making method is based on the ancient saltpeter ice making method. Water soaked in saltpeter cannot be drunk and must be separated into a basin.
