Chapter three hundred and nineteenth artillery battle
In the side yard of Liu Mansion, the weather is getting colder now. Young Master Liu is squatting on the ground and tinkering with something. He is wearing a beautifully crafted tiger fur coat. He wants to watch the complete version for free.

In later generations, tigers are nationally protected animals. If the killing of tigers is verified, they will inevitably have to eat national food for several years. It is not impossible for Siberian tigers and relatively rare tigers to try a peanut.
But in today's world, wild beasts are everywhere. Not only does killing one or two tigers not have any responsibility, but it will also be praised by the people as a hero who eliminates harm. Just refer to the tiger-fighting hero Takejiro.
You must know that the people who rely on the mountains often become food for animals such as tigers and black bears. Being able to get rid of the harmful tigers is a matter of benefit to the village.
No matter how rampant wild beasts are in this era, dumplings will become food in the mouth of the people in Chengdu, not to mention mere tigers.
It means that Young Master Liu will attach great importance to the existence of dumplings. After all, it is difficult to erase the deep-rooted concept of national treasure in a short time. Otherwise, it will be Pangpang's turn to dominate the Liu family. With the old man's temperament, he has long become a favorite at the dinner table.
The food was served.
Young Master Liu held up a bamboo tube and compared it carefully: "This amount is probably only the power of two boxes of Spider King. For Black Whirlwind, one box is probably enough. But isn't it a bit too much to use black huo yào as the raw material for making fireworks?
It’s a bit arrogant. If you accidentally burn down someone’s house, you’ll be happy. How about half a box of Spider King?”
Seeing that the Spring Festival is coming in less than a month, depending on the old man's intention, he does not plan to return to Jiangnan during the Spring Festival this year, and will live in the capital.
Of course Liu Mingzhi has no objection. For him, nothing is more joyful than a happy family reunion.
Liu Mingzhi thought that the Spring Festival should have a Spring Festival atmosphere. It was so deserted that it really didn't look like a Chinese New Year, so he interrupted and set off some fireworks. Men, no matter how old they are, are always full of infinite passion for this kind of thing.
.
Liu Mingzhi didn't know if there were fireworks in this era, and he didn't bother to ask. Anyway, he had nothing to do, so he might as well do some and get some New Year's gifts for Liu Mingli.
But whether you want to get some for yourself or for Liu Mingli to play with, you will know by looking at his laughter. If you lend Liu Mingli a bamboo tube as thick as a baby's arm, he may not dare to light the fuse on the firecracker.
In my previous life, I was overwhelmed by study and life. Now that I have enough time, I always want to do something serious and interesting.
Using a mallet to pound the sealing earth on the bamboo tube, Young Master Liu called to Liu Song and walked out of the gate of Liu Mansion holding a firecracker with a lead of three meters long: "Liu Song, are the torches ready?"
Liu Song walked out holding a burning torch: "Master, the torch is here, are you doing a firecracker?"
"You also know about firecrackers?"
"Of course I know. Every household will prepare firecrackers to drive away the Nian beast. I have never seen such a big firecracker, but I have let off firecrackers of similar size. I have never seen firecrackers made of bamboo tubes, but the fuse is too long.
Master, you are too cowardly. The sound of firecrackers is not much louder than farts. How can you get such a long fuse?" Liu Song looked at Young Master Liu with disdain as he looked at the nearly ten-foot fuse.
It's not like my young master has never set off firecrackers. The fuse is longer than the middle finger, but after lighting this ten-foot fuse, people will run to the city gate and the firecrackers may not go off.
"You know nothing. Blackfire's firecracker is so big and powerful. The young master has no idea how powerful it is. If the dose is too high, the young master will explain it today. How can you be at ease?"
Liu Song didn't know that Young Master Liu's firecrackers did not use ordinary gunpowder, but gunpowder, which was black firepowder that had been specially prepared and sealed in a bamboo tube, just like the léi guǎn of later generations.
Although Liu Mingzhi slightly changed the proportions, he could not guarantee what the power would be like.
Young Master Liu shook his head and saw that there were no pedestrians coming and going on Xuanwu Street. It was so cold during the New Year and most people stayed at home to rest. It was not surprising that there were no pedestrians on the street.
"Give me the torch and you hide inside the gate. I'll tell you to close the door later. You must close the door quickly. If something goes wrong, today will be our death anniversary next year." Young Master Liu took the hand from Liu Song.
Torch pushed Liu Song a few steps behind him.
"Master, it's not that serious. Come on, I'm a little kid. What's the big deal with such a long fuse?"
"You kid, give me less"
呲呲呲
As soon as Liu Song took the fuse from Mr. Liu's hand, he touched the fuse. When the fuse saw the open flame, it immediately started to ignite.
"Fuck!" Liu Mingzhi stared with wide eyes as he looked at the fuse that had burned for about a foot. He knocked the torch out of Liu Song's hand, pulled Liu Song and ran towards the gate.
"Xiaojiu, close the door quickly and cover your ears."
Although Xiaojiu was confused, she still obeyed Mr. Liu's words and immediately closed the door and covered her ears.
Young Master Liu covered his ears and leaned against the door of Liu Mansion with his mouth slightly open. However, after a long time, he didn't hear any sound and sighed: "It doesn't matter if you fail, it's too damn scary. Young Master Liu Matsumoto wants to
Kill you."
Liu Song looked at Young Master Liu aggrievedly: "Master, although Xiao Song has never set off such a big firecracker before, he has also set off a lot of smaller firecrackers. Master, you yourself have set off a lot, and you also
I’m not afraid of being like this.”
"Fuck you, uncle, how can it be the same? This is Heihuo." Liu Mingzhi sighed. He couldn't tell Liu Song about Heihuo Yào. Now he had to keep it a secret.
"Master, Xiaosong is wrong."
"From now on, you can do whatever I ask you to do. If you don't dare to disobey orders, do it according to family law."
"yes."
"Let's go, don't worry, it's better to use a paper roll for this thing. The bamboo tube is really not suitable. I made a miscalculation. I will go to the street to buy some firecrackers and come back later. Master, I want to study it. It's not very reliable to rely on what I have seen.
"
"Okay, Xiaosong knows"
A loud "boom" sounded outside the door of Liu Mansion. It was deafening and resounded throughout Xuanwu Street. It was as powerful as thunder on a dry day. In addition, Xuanwu Street is a long street, and the sound effect of "bào zhà" spread continuously.
Liu Mingzhi felt that the floor under his feet was shaking a little, and his mouth kept twitching: "That's it for two boxes of Spider King, it's not much different from léi guǎn."
Young Master Liu has also seen the scene of zhào zhào in later generations, so he naturally understands how powerful léi guǎn is. Except that this firecracker is not filled with TNT, its effect is no less than that of léi guǎn's bào zhà.
"Young master, it's going off." Liu Song looked at his young master shaking like chaff. Now he finally understood why the young master was so cautious. This was not a firecracker. It was a thunderbolt installed in a bamboo tube.
Xiaojiu was so frightened that she sat on the ground, her eyes dull.
Young Master Liu has irritated so many powerful people on Xuanwu Street. It's getting cold. As the saying goes, what can you do if you don't go out when you're full and warm in the winter? Of course, do some fun things.
The elder brother and uncle, who had many people spreading their branches and leaves, felt the sparrow wailing without any response: "How can there be thunder in the winter?"
Liu Mingzhi opened the door to himself. There was still a thick smoke outside the door. He quickly scanned everything in the alley and then he breathed a sigh of relief. On the stone slab where the bamboo firecrackers were placed, there was only a large white mark.
There was no damage at all, and there were no traces of damage on the wall.
"It's okay, it's okay, but it's more powerful and has no real lethality. It seems that changing the ratio is still right. It's similar to the cannons used for weddings and funerals in rural areas in later generations, but it's loud and has no real lethality.
"
"You little bastard, I knew it was you and didn't run away."
