Chapter 20 Blowing up mountains and controlling waters
In the middle of the night, the exhausted people of the cottage fell asleep, except for a young girl who was still busy in the backyard, pouring hoarfrost and a yellow powder and sawdust into the cauldron, and stir-frying until the black powder was stir-fried.
A loud "bang!" shattered the silence of the night.
"Fuck, which bastard did it? Lao Tzu wants to fight him hard. Steward Zhang, who was awakened by the sound of the explosion, opened his eyes and saw a large pit in the backyard that was more than five meters wide and more than three meters deep, as well as the mess in the courtyard after the bombing. Hearing this, Zuo Xiquan and the officers and soldiers who came were also dumbfounded, when did such a lethal weapon appear in the Dayan Dynasty?
"I ...... Ahem!ahem!" a faint female voice came out of a corner, startling everyone.
I saw that there was a man in black lying three meters outside the pit, the person's face was black, there were a few blood marks on his face, his clothes were also blown out of a few holes, and the ends of his hair were also burned, looking so embarrassed and pitiful.
"Baili Yan, what are you doing here?" Zuo Xiquan's face was blue, couldn't she be more peaceful?
"Well, I was working on explosives and accidentally misplaced the amount. Chen Mu looked aggrieved, Grandma Xiong's, he was also trying to make explosives for the first time, where can I control the dosage?
"What is explosives?" Zuo Xiquan looked confused.
"I'll explain it to you later, you guys go rest first, I'm going to continue to study the dosage ratio here, and also, no peeping, whoever peeps, I'll blow them up to the end. The girl had a fierce face.
"That'...... Then ......, "What about our villa?" If we continue to study, will Rumeng Villa be blown up? Steward Zhang was uneasy.
"Don't worry, don't worry, at most half of the villa will be blown up, I won't kill it all. Chen Mu smiled brightly.
"What?" Steward Zhang instantly fell to the ground and fainted.
That night, according to everyone's recollections, every half an hour, Rumeng Villa sent out a thunderclap, piggybacking on a small earthquake, the scale was bigger and louder, the sound was louder and louder, the villa buildings fell one after another, and Steward Zhang hid in the quilt and kept sobbing. The next morning, when everyone got up, they were all stunned by the scene in front of them, yesterday it was still a splendid dream villa, and after a night, it was almost in ruins.
Steward Zhang's eyes were swollen like peaches, and he used the kitchen knife to break the net with the culprit, but fortunately he was stopped by a group of guards.
"You go and take care of the wounds on your body. Zuo Xiquan draped a cloak over the tattered girl.
"No, I'll go sleep for an hour first, you ask the guards to prepare the sheepskin raft, and when I wake up, let's go to Yucheng to blow up the mountain." Chen Mu, who was in a mess, kept yawning and tossing all night, although he suffered some skin injuries, he finally succeeded in developing explosives. "You haven't closed your eyes for two days and two nights, and you are not in a hurry to control the water. You can sleep for a few more hours, Zuo Xiquan finally swallowed that sentence.
"Why aren't you in a hurry? The people of Yucheng can't wait. The girl looked at Yucheng in the distance, where the mountains were high and the clouds were covered, the rain was still rising, and countless lives were coiling on the edge of the Yellow Spring. An hour later, the disaster relief army arrived for Yucheng on time.
"Why do you want to go to the Autumn Styx Mountain?" the man in black on the horse looked at the girl in the carriage. "Quite simply, it's the lowest terrain. "It's the easiest to blow up," the girl replied nonchalantly.
Three hours later, in a cave in Yucheng, eight wooden barrel-thick explosive packets were placed, and on top of the medicine bags was a thick cotton thread soaked in oil, and at the end of the cotton thread was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl. "One, two, three, run!" the maiden lit the cotton thread with a flame, and then, quickly turning and running away, carrying a bulging sheepskin raft on her back.
Zuo Xiquan, who was watching from the high ground in the distance, looked puzzled, what was that person doing?
Thirty seconds later, "Boom, boom, boom!" There was a burst of explosions from the Autumn Styx Mountain, and the sound resounded through the sky, and it could be heard for hundreds of miles, and in the middle of nowhere, the towering mountains were blown to pieces, and the entire Yucheng was shaken, and the people in the city were so frightened that they fled in all directions. The flood in the city, like a giant dragon, began to pour down in the direction of the Autumn Shadow Mountain, and the Yucheng at this moment was like a porcelain bowl that had been broken, and the water in the bowl continued to fall.
"Baili Yan, you are really a madman!" It was only at this moment, looking at the endless flood under his feet, that Zuo Xiquan came to his senses.
It was still raining in the sky, and a huge wave came over, choking Chen Mu so much that his nose and ears were full of water, he was trembling all over, and his body floated up with the sheepskin raft, only to feel exhausted, but fortunately he ran fast, and if he ran a little slower, his little fate would definitely be lost in Yucheng.
"Lord Xu, Lord Xu! The water is down, down!" After the panic, the people of Yucheng began to cheer, the rapidly falling water level, the collapsed Qiuying Mountain, all of this means that they are saved. "Who blew down Qiu Ying Mountain?" Xu Chunlai's face was full of disbelief, and then, tears burst out of his eyes, Yu Cheng was trapped for a full fourteen days, he thought that the imperial court had already given up on them, and even was ready to die, but he didn't expect it......
His body was getting colder and colder, and Chen Mu's consciousness was getting more and more blurred as he floated in the huge waves...... After all, he gambled his life, but before he fell unconscious, he seemed to be pulled out of the whirlpool by a pair of thick hands. When I woke up again, I was in a clean hut, and in front of me was a gray-haired old lady.
"Where is this?" Chen Mu sat up from the bed.
"Girl, let's lie down, this is a house in Yucheng, I am the old mother invited by Lord Zuo, and I am responsible for taking care of the girl. The old lady smiled and was very kind. "Oh! I've been in a coma for a few days?" It seems that the flood in Yucheng has been broken, and Chen Mu's hanging heart has finally landed.
"For two whole days, the doctor said that the girl was caused by hard work and typhoid fever, but she had to recuperate for a while. ”
"Who saved me?"
"It's Lord Zuo, I heard that in order to save the girl, Lord Zuo soaked in the water for more than an hour, a man like him is rare, and in order to cure the girl's illness, he invited all the doctors in Yucheng over. ”
"Ahem, auntie, go down first, I have something to say to the girl. At this moment, a handsome man came from outside the door, Zuo Xiquan, who was suffering from a severe cold because he went into the water to save people. "Thank you, Lord Zuo, for saving your life. Chen Mu suddenly felt a warm current in his heart.
"You think too much, I'm afraid that you will die, and I can't give an account to the emperor, so ......." Zuo Xiquan's face turned crimson. "Oh!" When did the emperor care about my life or death, he wished that I would die early, so as to make room for his Qinglian sister to be the queen, a hard-mouthed and soft-hearted guy, Chen Mu secretly snickered.
"The flood in Yucheng has been resolved, I have reported your merits to the imperial court, you can recuperate here in peace for a few days, and when I deal with the miscellaneous affairs in Yucheng, I will take you back to Yanjing City." ”
"Oh!" the girl nodded slightly.
"This is a box of scar cream, remember to wipe it three times a day, girls, always take care of their faces, don't be too reckless. Someone threw a small white jade box on the wooden bed, turned around and walked out the door. "Who are the girls' family? You are a girl's family!! your whole family is a girl!" Chen Mu, who was annoyed, jumped to his feet on the bed angrily.
At this moment in Yanjing City, the emperor is reading a secret letter from Yucheng, in which Baili Yan's every move in Yucheng is recorded in detail, and the person who wrote the letter is a secret agent placed by the emperor in the guards. In the past two days, Murong Yu has read this letter over and over again, and the Baili Yan in the letter seems to be a brand new stranger, interesting, is it possible that a person who has died once will even change his temperament and way of doing things?
What made him even more happy and sorrowful was that the secret weapon of exploding a mountain in Baili Yan's possession could blow up a mountain in a few seconds, how powerful and mighty it was! This kind of secret weapon could only exist in the Dayan Dynasty, and it must never fall into the hands of people from other countries.
"Holy Lord, the flood in Yucheng has been eliminated, but you haven't drawn up a list of heroes who blow up mountains and control waters, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are waiting to pay tribute to this person's demeanor. A little eunuch next to him was puzzled. "Suppress this in advance, and Rong Zhen will think about it for a few more days. Murong Yu frowned slightly, he had already sealed his mouth to the people who knew about the Baili Yan bombing the mountain, and the people of the Mandayan Dynasty only knew that the flood in Yucheng had been eliminated, but they didn't know who blew up the mountain.
Baili Yan, since you have a strange thaumaturgy, you are destined to be a pawn of the Great Yan Dynasty, and you will never be free.
The man in the dragon chair clenched his fists.
In recent days, Chen Mengyu, who is as beautiful as a flower on Baili Mansion, can be described as infinitely beautiful.
"Madam, the second master asks to see you. The maidservant Xi Tao bent down and saluted the beautiful woman on the seat.
"Oh, let him in. The beautiful woman rolled her eyes, showing a sneering look, this damn Baili Cheng is like a rotten fly, buzzing around him all day long, isn't it the idea of playing the wealth of the Baili family?
"I haven't seen my sister-in-law for many days, and my sister-in-law's style is more and more lovely. A middle-aged man in a silver brocade robe lifted the bead chain, and a smile overflowed on his face.
"Second brother is really idle, don't go around your sour and vinegar-loving lady, why bother to attract sister-in-law's suspicion? Aren't you afraid of people chewing your tongue?"
"My lady's vinegar smell is too big, and it's very boring, and her posture is not as good as her sister-in-law, in my opinion, she doesn't even deserve to lift shoes for her sister-in-law, who is my heart, and my sister-in-law doesn't know?" Baili Cheng looked up at the beautiful woman in front of him, his eyes were burning, and his mouth was a little dry.
