Chapter 360: Recognized

Bai Wei was startled and could not help but take a few extra looks at the Fusang Ronin with a gun hanging at his waist.

She helped the Beijiang Army purchase equipment and weapons, so she had some understanding of firearms and ammunition, and she recognized at a glance that the gun slung at this Fusang Ronin's waist was a modern weapon.

Moreover, judging by the model, it even seemed to be an old-fashioned Browning Pistol.

Bai Wei was exceptionally surprised.

How could this be?

She had never sent a handgun to Xiao Moting, so where on earth did these Fusang People get handguns from?

Although this model of Browning Pistol was an old one, it was no longer used in modern times.

But this dynasty was the Daliang of over a thousand years ago!

Let alone handguns, even bullets had not been invented yet!

"How can this be?" Bai Wei's eyes were filled with shock, and she could not help but mutter in a low voice, "Why do these Fusang People have modern weapons? Who on earth gave them to them?"

At the same time, her previous thoughts flashed through her mind once again.

She had once speculated that since she could travel through time and space back to ancient times, perhaps others could too.

She could send items to Xiao Moting, so perhaps others could send them as well.

Could her speculation have come true?

Was there really someone, just like her, who had come to Daliang from modern times?

And, could the other party also send items?

Bai Wei felt horrified in her heart.

If someone like her had truly appeared among the Fusang People, then things would be tricky.

I am afraid that the Daliang Kingdom is about to face an unprecedented crisis.

If things go wrong, the Daliang Kingdom might even be wiped out, and the Fusang People would become the masters of the Shenzhou land.

No, this cannot happen.

Bai Wei's heart was pounding wildly, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

She had never encountered an opponent while helping the Beijiang Army develop and expand; even when facing the hundreds of thousands of elite troops of Daye, she had been confident of victory.

But now, she felt an unprecedented sense of crisis.

Both she and the other party could provide the army with modern supplies, equipment, and weapons; in this regard, both sides were evenly matched, and even if Xiao Moting's Beijiang Army was the strongest military force in Daliang, it would not have an advantage in supplies.

Huaxia prohibits guns, and Bai Wei had only managed to find a dozen sniper rifles after great effort, and those were even modified by Zhou Yuchuan.

Yet the other party was able to get handguns so easily.

Moreover, looking at this Fusang Ronin's attire, he was not a high-ranking Leader, just a small-time boss.

If even a small-time boss of the Fusang Ronin could get a handgun, this meant that the other party had even more firearms, ammunition, and weapons!

Bai Wei could obtain all kinds of supplies and equipment, but she had no way to obtain firearms and ammunition.

Just from this point alone, the Beijiang Army was currently at a disadvantage.

If the Fusang army were to invade Daliang in force with all kinds of firearms, ammunition, and modern weaponry, the Daliang army would simply be unable to resist with their swords, spears, and clubs.

Even if Xiao Moting sent out the Beijiang Army, they would not be able to withstand the hail of bullets from modern times!

"No, this matter is too dangerous." Bai Wei's brows were tightly knitted, "I must find a way to figure out where these Fusang People got the guns in their hands. Also, whether there is someone from another world among them providing them with weapons."

Just as Bai Wei's thoughts were churning, a sharp voice suddenly came from behind.

"Stop!"

The other party used stiff Daliang language; one could tell at once that it was a Fusang Ronin.

Bai Wei could not help but stand still and said in a suppressed voice, "W-what is the matter?"

The other party barked, "You, turn around."

Bai Wei's breathing tightened, and she had no choice but to turn around slowly.

Several Fusang Ronin stood behind her, and the one who had barked the order was none other than the small-time boss with the Browning Pistol hanging at his waist.

The small-time boss squinted his eyes and scrutinized her sharply.

"Who are you? Why have I never seen you before?"

Bai Wei hurriedly said, "Master Samurai, I am new here."

"New here?" The small-time boss's eyes were full of suspicion, "Why did Lao Zhangtou not report this to me?"

At this moment, Lao Zhangtou also saw the situation here and hurried over, bowing and scraping as he went.

"Master Samurai, we were short-handed, so I called my distant niece to come and help."

"She just arrived today, and I was planning to report it to you after finishing the cooking today."

The small-time boss put his hands on his hips and looked Bai Wei up and down.

"Since you are here to help, why is your face so dirty? Are you trying to hide something?"

Bai Wei's heart skipped a beat.

This Fusang person was too cunning, wasn't he?

She had smeared some coal ash on her face, deliberately making herself look filthy, just so that no one would see her face.

"That, I accidentally got it on my face while moving things just now."

The small-time boss stared fixedly at her face, "In that case, wipe the coal ash clean and let me see."

Lao Zhangtou was terrified and ran over, his face full of nervousness, "Master Samurai, my niece has been ugly since she was a child, I am afraid of frightening you."

"It doesn't matter, I just want to see what she looks like." The small-time boss said with a frivolous laugh, looking at Bai Wei from head to toe, "Her eyes are very beautiful, like the black agate of your Daliang Kingdom; a woman with such beautiful eyes cannot be an ugly monster."

Upon hearing this, Bai Wei could not help but curse in her heart.

What a bunch of animals!

She had smeared her face pitch-black and was wearing dirty, patched clothes just to avoid attracting attention.

Normal people would walk around her, seeing how dirty and messy she was.

Yet this little Fusang person before her just had to take the unconventional path!

To have made herself look like this, only to be targeted by a lecherous little Fusang person—it was truly enough to make one vomit blood!

"Bring her a basin of water and wash her face clean," the little leader sneered. "It just so happens that a few of the women who served us personally have died, and we are in urgent need of replacements. If you look decent enough, you won't have to do this rough work of moving things anymore."

Upon hearing this, Lao Zhangtou was frantic and hurriedly stepped forward to plead.

"Lord Samurai, my niece has little fortune and cannot serve you; please choose someone else instead."

"Get lost." The little leader was impatient and kicked Lao Zhangtou heavily in the chest. "If you nag again, watch out, or I'll send you old thing to go see your Buddha."

Lao Zhangtou was struck by the kick and stumbled back several steps, losing his balance and landing on his bottom, clutching his chest in pain.

"Zhang Shu." Bai Wei hurriedly ran over and supported Lao Zhangtou. "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine." Lao Zhangtou hurriedly shook his head, using an anxious gaze to signal to Bai Wei, asking her what they should do.

Bai Wei shook her head lightly.

It didn't matter.

Since the other party had set their sights on her, she could only go along with the flow.

Since she couldn't poison them in the kitchen, she would change her plan on the fly; if this little leader was greedy for beauty and wanted to drag her into a room to cause trouble, she would just have to use force.

In her Warehouse, she still had a high-voltage Electric Self-Defense Device prepared; as long as she touched the other party once, she could make them suffer an electric shock and collapse.
