Fake Eunuch: Discovering the Emperor is a Woman!-Chapter 392 - 389 Majestic Qiankun Cannon

As the preparations were completed over there, Lin Yi, who was originally standing next to the cannon, quickly jogged over to this side.

He squeezed into the room in one swift motion, which made the young Emperor startled, not knowing why this fellow had run over, and asked with some confusion:

"Why aren’t you staying over there, what are you doing here?"

Lin Yi felt a bit helpless at the question:

"That thing is incredibly noisy, it’s better to stand here as it hurts the ears standing close to it.

Your Majesty, let’s not talk about that for now, and watch the power of this device."

After Lin Yi finished speaking, he turned his gaze towards the window.

He looked towards the position of the cannon and then shouted to ignite it.

Following Lin Yi’s words and shout, the young Emperor suddenly saw the person originally standing by the cannon pulling out a flint.

He promptly used the flint to light the oddly shaped object.

This thing did indeed somewhat resemble a firearm.

For instance, the spot he was igniting now was somewhat similar to the ignition port on a fire gun.

The only difference was that the firearms had already developed a form where pulling a trigger could ignite it.

However, this current object was not like that, it still needed the flame source to be brought close.

After all, this object was too big, and there was no place for something called a trigger.

Of course, talking about this was pointless, as the moment the flint approached the bottom of the big device, the exposed fuse was immediately ignited.

With flashes of light bursting forth, the soldiers responsible for igniting it also quickly lay down on the ground.

This movement completely dumbfounded the young Emperor.

The young Emperor looked at Lin Yi, who was covering his ears, with a confused face:

"What’s going on? They just ignited it, why are they lying down already?

If this were a real battlefield, the enemy might charge over at this time, how can they not keep an eye on the enemy now?"

While Lin Yi, who had been properly covering his ears and squinting his eyes watching ahead, had his hands suddenly pulled away by the young Emperor.

He was stunned for a moment after hearing the Emperor’s words.

Well, great, I was covering my ears nicely, and you interrupted me to ask these questions.

That’s really something. The power of that big device is immense, not just lying down would suffice.

Normally, one should dig a trench on the ground, ignite it, and directly jump into the trench.

"Your Majesty, the power of this device is huge, standing close by could really hurt your ears."

As he said this, Lin Yi was already thinking of raising his arms to cover his ears again.

Although there was a certain distance between here and there, the distance wasn’t too far and could only ensure that if there was a case of a burst chamber.

At least this area wouldn’t be too threatened.

Therefore, there would still be a loud noise coming from that place.

Especially since the technology for gunpowder was not very advanced or mature yet.

It could be said that a large part of the gunpowder would exert force sideways.

That is, it wouldn’t just shoot out from the barrel, but would impact the walls.

For that reason, this also greatly increased the risk of a burst chamber.

Clearly, after hearing Lin Yi’s explanation, the young Emperor still didn’t quite understand what was going on.

So, he reached out again and pulled down Lin Yi’s arm, which he had been about to use to cover his ears.

This made Lin Yi lose his composure a bit, and he looked helplessly at the curious young Emperor.

Before he could even speak, the fuse had already burnt down.

Immediately after, a loud boom was heard and the whole house trembled.

Because the building was quite simple, made only of thatch, with the loud noise, the thatch also started shaking and dust fell from above.

Dusting the young Emperor and Lin Yi’s heads and faces.

In short, no need to mention how embarrassed they looked.

Especially at this moment, both the young Emperor and Lin Yi were standing there, no longer speaking. freёnovelkiss.com

Feeling the buzzing in his ears, Lin Yi felt so helpless.

Good gracious, Your Majesty, you really know how to pick your times! The cannon was already ignited, and not only did you not cover your ears, you went to pull my arm, aren’t you just making this difficult?

Truly a teammate like a pig.

The young Emperor was even more startled. With the explosion sound, her body trembled, and she subconsciously wanted to hide in Lin Yi’s arms.

On the other hand, Ying Yi, who had been covering her ears the whole time, didn’t feel much discomfort in her ears.

Other than the shock brought by the vibration, there wasn’t much discomfort.

"You scoundrel, why didn’t you tell me that the power was so huge, now my ears are buzzing, I can’t hear anything clearly."

Listening to the faint sound of the young Emperor’s voice beside him, Lin Yi angrily stared back:

"Your Majesty, that’s really underhanded of you, haven’t I already told you this thing is extremely loud?
