The empress didn't know how long she had been sitting there. When she saw Ren Baqian, her eyes widened. She looked at him and paused for a moment. After all, his current appearance was very strange. He had a bag hanging in front of his chest, a bag on his back, a gun hanging on his body, headphones stuffed in his ears, and two bags in his hands. He looked like a refugee.
Ren Baqian placed the bags on the ground, climbed onto a rock, and sat beside the empress. He took out a headphone and stuffed it into her ear. Then, he said warmly, "Have you waited for long?"
The empress ignored him and listened to the music coming from the headphone. There were too many things in that world that she had not come into contact with. She wouldn't be too surprised by anything she saw now. In any case, Ren Baqian would explain it to her.
A warm female voice was transmitted into her ears. Although she couldn't understand the meaning, the melody was very warm.
This was a very healing song. If the name was translated, it would be called a gentle poem. Ren Baqian used to like listening to it and wanted to share it with the empress. Sharing something that he liked with the empress was a kind of joy to him.
The two of them sat on the rock and listened to the gentle song. The impending battle seemed to have gone far away from them. The mountain breeze was much warmer.
"It's a very strange language," the empress said.
"It's from a small island nation in the east of our world. Some things are still valuable." Ren Baqian naturally wouldn't say what the most valuable thing was. He would be beaten to death.
"What is it singing?" The empress asked again. Although the melody was a little strange, it was common in that world. On the contrary, it was rarely heard in Dayao and Great Xia. However, the empress still felt that it was very nice to listen to. She felt warm after listening to it.
Fortunately, Ren Baqian could roughly remember the translated meaning of the lyrics. He then explained it to the empress. The empress nodded and said, "Sing it for me."
"Wait for me to learn it. I don't know their language." Ren Baqian laughed. Then, he said with a slight flaunt, "But I know how to play 'Pomp and Circumstance' with the erhu."
He learned the erhu from his grandfather. His technique wasn't considered proficient, but he practiced 'Pomp and Circumstance' pretty well. When his younger brother heard it, his evaluation was, "The erhu has become a spirit."
The empress didn't think much of the words' Pomp and Circumstance '. She nodded her head and said, "Okay."
Ren Baqian was overjoyed when he thought of playing 'Pomp and Circumstance' for the empress.
"Let's go." The empress took off her earphones and disappeared from the rock without exerting any force. She immediately appeared a few steps away.
"I brought back some good stuff this time." Ren Baqian then remembered to inform the empress, "Besides the antidote, we also have binoculars that allow us to see very far away." He took out a pair of binoculars from his bag, opened the front cover of the binoculars, made a few gestures, and passed it to the empress. "It should be useful for reconnaissance."
The empress imitated Ren Baqian's actions and placed the binoculars in front of her eyes. She could see places that were very far away as if they were right in front of her. This made her feel a little unaccustomed to it. After taking a look at her surroundings, she slowly familiarized herself with the binoculars. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly. It seemed like she really liked this thing.
"Anything else? This is quite useful, "the empress said.
"Not only this, there's also a walkie-talkie. It's just like a mobile phone and can be used for long-distance communication. This way, it'll be more convenient for us to contact each other." Ren Baqian took out a walkie-talkie, adjusted the channel, and passed it to the empress. He also held one in his hand.
"This can be used?" The empress was a little surprised. Didn't Ren Baqian say that it couldn't be used?
However, her voice was transmitted directly from the walkie-talkie in Ren Baqian's hand.
"This can only be used within a short distance of about three kilometers. It should be sufficient for the current situation. Many times, it will be more convenient. You don't need to rely on shouting to relay messages anymore. I brought ten of them."
The empress calculated that a distance of three kilometers was sufficient. In fact, it was a little too far for the current situation. If it was placed in the hands of the border army, it would then be able to display its true potential.
With this, Hong Wu could command the entire army like an extension of his arm. During wartime, it would play a huge role.
Also, in terms of reconnaissance, it would be able to report the situation in a timely manner without having to run a few kilometers to report.
The empress immediately thought of these two points. Just based on these two points, the value of the walkie-talkie was already huge.
"Bring more next time," the empress said.
Ren Baqian nodded his head. Following which, he picked up a bag and said, "There's still one more important thing, a drone. It can fly in the sky just like the plane that you have boarded before. It will be able to know the enemy's situation from eight to nine kilometers away."
Upon hearing Ren Baqian's words, the empress's eyes lit up again. The things that Ren Baqian brought back this time would indeed be very useful.
Both of them sat on Qi Shui's back. The other bags were tied up with ropes and hung on both sides of Qi Shui. The originally mighty kirin now looked like a mule that was carrying goods. This made Qi Shui groan non-stop. At the same time, it shook its body, trying to shake off the things.
Originally, it could only accept the empress. It could even tolerate Ren Baqian's presence. Now, it was being ordered around like an animal.
No matter what, it was still a kirin. Even though Ren Baqian always felt that its character was like a husky, it still had some self-respect.
In the end, the empress had to appease it before both of them set off. In the middle of the night, they saw a bonfire in the distance. When both of them walked closer, someone came out to greet them, "Your Majesty."
Many people were alarmed by their arrival. When they greeted them, they couldn't help but cast sidelong glances at Ren Baqian. The empress had been waiting for this fellow. She had waited until this moment to come. It was really too much, and everyone felt that it was inconceivable.
However, when they thought about how the empress had come to Great Xia, they could only sigh.
When they set off again, another day had passed. Finally, everyone arrived at the border of Mount Yuyang. After crossing over the mountain ridge in front, they would arrive at a plain. It would take half a day to cross over and enter Mount Lianyin.
Everyone guessed that there would be Great Xia soldiers intercepting them on this plain. However, there wouldn't be too many of them and there wouldn't be any experts. After all, they didn't have enough time to make arrangements.
However, to be on the safe side, the empress called the three captains over and asked Ren Baqian to take out nine binoculars from his bag to distribute to them.
"What's this?" For the past few days, everyone had ignored Ren Baqian. At this moment, they finally asked.
"10x binoculars. If you can see a small dot 500 meters away but can't see clearly what it is, this binoculars can zoom in on that object to a range of 50 meters. Simply put, it allows you to see further and see things that are ten times further away." Ren Baqian explained to the three captains. Looking at their bewildered expressions, he had no choice but to place the binoculars in front of his eyes to demonstrate to everyone. Then, he passed the binoculars to them for them to try.
With a puzzled look on his face, Teng Ji took the binoculars and placed them in front of his eyes to take a look. He couldn't see anything, it was as if it was blocked by something.
Ren Baqian looked at Teng Ji who was using the binoculars to look at himself. He helplessly pointed to a distant place and said, "Look over there."
Teng Ji turned the binoculars in a certain direction and immediately got a shock. The thing that was tens of meters away seemed to be right in front of his eyes. It made his hands tremble and he almost threw the binoculars away.
Ren Baqian passed the other two binoculars to the other two captains. When the two of them saw Teng Ji getting a shock, they were somewhat baffled. In the end, when they used the binoculars to look at the distant things, their reactions were exactly the same as Teng Ji's. It was as if the head of the person that was tens of meters away was right in front of their eyes.
Looking at the three of them hugging the binoculars as if they were treasures, Ren Baqian took out another pair of binoculars and demonstrated to them how to adjust the magnification. Only after this did the few of them know how to use the binoculars. Soon after, they held the binoculars and looked into the distance, having a great time.
One could imagine the shock that the binoculars brought to the people of this era. Its value was simply too great.
After a long time, they put down the binoculars and looked at Ren Baqian again. No matter what, this was really a good thing.
The surprise that Ren Baqian gave them was not over yet. Next, he took out a night vision goggles. He only brought one with him.
"Night vision goggles. Even in the pitch-black night, you can still see living creatures and people. You can clearly see everything within a radius of one kilometer." Just as Ren Baqian's voice faded away, the goggles were snatched away by someone.
"This cannot be used during the day as it is easily damaged. It will only be effective at night. Give it to the sentries." Ren Baqian promptly warned.
After hearing this, the three of them suppressed their thoughts. Soon after, their gazes landed on Ren Baqian again. They did not know if Ren Baqian would be able to take out anything else because Ren Baqian was holding onto a few bags.
"This is a walkie-talkie. I'll give it to the six of you. You can communicate within a radius of one kilometer." Ren Baqian took the walkie-talkie and said.
However, the few of them were still unable to understand this thing.
After Ren Baqian adjusted the channel of a walkie-talkie, he passed it to Teng Ji. "Go to a place that is 300 feet away and speak to it."
Teng Ji nodded his head. With one hand tightly holding onto the binoculars and the other hand holding onto the walkie-talkie, he moved and appeared 30 feet away. In less than three seconds, he was already 300 feet away, which was a distance of about 100 meters. Soon after, he held onto the walkie-talkie and looked at it for a long time. Then, he heard a voice coming from the small box in his hand, "Did you hear that?"
Immediately, he was shocked. This voice came from the box and the owner of the voice was still sitting at the same place.
"Ah!" Teng Ji's surprised voice came from the walkie-talkie. The other two captains looked at Teng Ji who was a distance away and then looked at the small box in Ren Baqian's hand.
"Say something."
"Ren … Deputy Prefect Ren," Teng Ji stuttered.
Even an Earth Wheel level captain stuttered. It could be seen how he was feeling right now. He was a little nervous and felt that this small box would suck him in and lock him up.
"Come back." Ren Baqian's voice fell. In less than three seconds, Teng Ji appeared beside everyone.
"This is the function of this thing. It can be used to communicate from a distance. However, it can only be used for 12 hours. After that, it needs to be recharged. Therefore, it can only be turned on when it is needed and switched off when it is not in use." Ren Baqian demonstrated to everyone.
This time, everyone looked at Ren Baqian as if they were looking at a deity.
Originally, they didn't understand why Her Majesty found such a weakling and even took such a huge risk to come to Great Xia for him.
After everyone received the empress, they viewed Ren Baqian with hostility.
However, at this moment, those thoughts were already thrown out of their minds.
Ren Baqian casually took out these few things that they had never seen or heard of before and they were already shocked.
