Chapter 81 Sending Kerosene to the Lu Family

When he heard it was the Xu family business, Gu Xingzhao finally remembered, yes, how could he have forgotten it!

Since Xu's parents were able to come up with the money to save their daughter, the Xu family's assets must have been among the best in Beijing.

She suddenly became curious and asked, "What business does the Xu family do?"

He Zhen: "My main business is precious treasures, calligraphy and paintings. I also do businesses like grain and restaurants."

She had made some special inquiries over the past two days, thinking that the gods might ask about it and she had to know the details.

Gu Xingzhao nodded slightly. Precious calligraphy and paintings. She suddenly thought of Xu Shisan, who was engaged in antique calligraphy and paintings. She felt a little strange in her heart. Could there be any connection between the ancient Xu family and the modern Xu family?

He had never thought about it before, but now that he had such a guess in his mind, Gu Xingzhao began to feel that this Xu Shisan might be a descendant of the ancient Xu family.

If that's true, it would be amazing!

Gu Xingzhao decided to ask Xu Shisan next time he saw him.

After checking the time, she prepared to go see the Lu family. Thinking of the fact that she still had to refine fireworks and firecrackers, she gave He Zhen some instructions and left some money. "By the way, leave an empty room in the new house for me to use."

He Zhen was stunned. What did the god mean by that? Did he want to live in his own house?

She suddenly became excited, "Yes, I will definitely do it!"

Gu Xingzhao was then teleported to the location of the Lu family. At this time, the sky had completely darkened. It hadn't snowed in the past two days, and most of the Lu family members were outside.

The heating pads sent by their ancestors had been used up for several days. The first snow melted and it was very cold, so they made a fire to keep warm.

The entire Lu family agreed that divine objects were rare after all, and that they couldn't always ask their ancestors for things, as that would really make things difficult for the gods.

At this time, Lu Zhou and Lu Xingyao wanted to make a fire, but the firewood they picked up was damp, the tinderbox was broken, and the fire did not start. The tribesmen behind them could not help but sigh, this was the only condition they had outside.

Lu Zhou was still holding the useless tinder in his hand. Seeing the guilty expressions on the tribesmen's faces, he said, "I'm sorry."

Gu Xingzhao then realized that he had been busy with his own affairs these days and had no idea that the heating pad that was sent earlier was long gone, and Lu Qing had not told him about this.

She had always thought that Lu Qing would tell her what she needed, but now it seemed that she still had to be more careful about everything.

Gu Xingzhao immediately returned to the modern era and packed the hot packs into a box. After thinking for a while, she also took out a bottle of kerosene and two lighters, thinking that this way, the Lu family would not have to work so hard to make a fire.

After packing the things in large and small packages into the bamboo basket, Gu Xingzhao saw that Lu Qing was teaching his granddaughter to read. He did not disturb him. He wrote a note and "slapped" it on Lu Xingyao's forehead!

The god spoke, and both the father and son were stunned for a moment, and almost reached out to grab the note at the same time. After all, Lu Xingyao was young and faster.

After receiving the note, he waved his hand at his father, looking very proud, "The ancestors must have thought that I have a big forehead and it would be easy to attack, otherwise they wouldn't have only stuck it on my forehead."

Gu Xingzhao was standing aside, and when he heard this, he almost spit out saliva, "???"

Shouldn't things like having a big forehead be spoken of in a low voice? Is this something glorious?

The tribesmen around also gathered around, wanting to see what the ancestor had to say next.

Seeing his son's smug expression, Lu Zhou's forehead twitched, "Why don't you check what the ancestors said?"

Lu Xingyao then flipped through the note and read out its contents, "The ancestors said they sent a batch of heating pads and put them in the bamboo basket."

As soon as he finished speaking, the tribesmen who had just gathered around him immediately dispersed. Without waiting for Lu Xingyao to speak, they all rushed to the bamboo basket in the tent. Fearing that other prisoners would notice something unusual, they pretended to be calm on the surface, entered the tent, and began to grab things frantically!

Lu Xingyao ignored them and continued to read the contents of the note: "There is also a small bottle of kerosene and two lighters. Kerosene helps combustion. Before starting a fire, pour some on the wood and press the lighter to start a fire."

As soon as he finished speaking, a small bottle appeared on the ground in front of him, along with two finger-sized objects. They should be the lighters that our ancestors mentioned.

Lu Zhou picked up the lighter and wondered, "This little thing can light a fire with just one click?"

He knew he shouldn't question the gods, but he just didn't believe it. After all, it looked like a small piece, and it didn't look like a tinderbox filled with fuel. It looked like water inside. Could it really make a fire?

Lu Xingyao already had experience with this kind of thing, "Just give it a try and you'll know."

He firmly believed that the things sent by the ancestors must be true!

Lu Xingyao immediately unscrewed the bottle, poured some kerosene on the firewood, picked up the lighter on the ground, carefully pressed the button on the top, and with a "click", a cluster of flames suddenly appeared in front of him!

Both father and son widened their eyes, especially Lu Zhou, who stammered, "This, this, this!"

Lu Xingyao pretended to be calm, "Father, there is no need to be so surprised. This thing is probably the magic of our ancestors. It probably contains divine water, which allows us mortals to control fire."

He looked so serious that old ancestor Gu Xingzhao almost believed what he said.

However, Lu Zhou directly put the lighter in his hand into his pocket, fearing that it would be stolen. Such a powerful artifact must be kept well by himself.

Lu Xingyao brought the flame of the lighter close to the firewood. In just a moment, the place where the gunpowder was sprinkled on the firewood was instantly engulfed in flames. He quickly let go of the lighter and looked at the scene in shock!

He picked up the bottle of kerosene on the ground and clenched it tightly. This thing called kerosene was too powerful. Just now, he just brought the fire closer and the firewood was immediately ignited!

Lu Zhou could not hide his shock. There was such a magical object in the world. If it could be widely used, it would surely benefit people all over the world.

Gu Xingzhao looked at their reactions and realized that in this era when there was no gunpowder and oil, the ancient people only used butter and vegetable oil to light lamps. Kerosene was indeed too advanced for them.

Lu Zhou stammered, "Go and get your grandfather!"

If my father knew about this magical object, he would definitely be delighted!

Lu Xingyao immediately stood up and quickly went to invite Lu Qing, dragging the old man over from his sister's side, "Grandfather, our ancestors sent us a magical object, come and take a look!"

Lu Qing looked at his grandson with disdain. What the hell was that? Why did he react so strongly?

Lu Xingyao pointed at the bonfire and told the whole story. Lu Zhou beside him was even more excited, "Father, if this thing can be widely used, it will benefit the people of the world!"

Lu Qing's face was more serious than ever before. He was shocked, but the fear was greater than the shock brought by this thing.

He immediately rebuked his eldest grandson and told him to put the item away. "Only the three of us know the purpose of this item. Don't let anyone else know, not even your family members."

Lu Qing's seriousness made the father and son feel puzzled. Lu Zhou was puzzled: "Father, why?"
