Chapter 53: Thunder

"I'll do some, let me hide behind the rockery."

Just waiting for everyone to run behind the rockery, they saw that Lamu's small table was still there.

This girl is so forgetful.

"Lamu, if you want your table not to fall to pieces, move it for me."

Of course, this sentence was to scare her, and he didn't put the explosives on the table to blow it up, at most, it was still very possible to lose arms and legs.

"Dasil, don't threaten me!"

Hu Xiu stumbled when he heard this, who taught her, and scolded him for being stupid. I can't scold and scold, I can't compete with a little girl.

Seeing that Lamu moved the small wooden table away, Hu Xiu relieved himself to bring the canned explosives to the ground more than ten meters away from the rockery.

The fire fold was taken out, and the flame approached the wire.

"ε‘²~"

Seeing that it was ignited, Hu Xiu took three steps and two steps, and ran to the back of the rockery. Watch the powder line burn out little by little...

"Huh? How not to blow up? Could it be that the gunpowder is really damp? Can't blow it up? ”

As soon as the words fell, the white light flashed in front of him, and he heard a loud sound of "boom~", and it is estimated that the entire palace as long as the people with good ears heard it.

The earthen jar in front of it dissipated directly, and the black ash scattered on the ground proved that it once existed.

The pebbles were flying around, and the yard was full of flying stones. But the killing range is not large, not more than ten meters away, when it hits the rockery, it just makes a crisp sound.

Look at the smash marks, if it hits people so far, it will be bruised at most. But what if you don't put a stone and put a blade inside? Or something else?

Hu Xiu shook his head violently, it is not desirable, it is not desirable, it is too hurtful. But if you think about it carefully, explosives are really a weapon of war, killing people in the slightest.

"Miss, what kind of explosives is this, it's really like what Shizi said, explosives can blow people up to the sky!"

The girl covered her ears and screamed, this girl was stunned by the sound of explosives.

Nalam was even more direct, and ran out. Squatting in the place where it had just exploded, looking at the black ash left on the ground. Pinch it up a little and put it in your nose and smell it.

"It smells so bad, what is this?"

"It must be gunpowder."

When Lamu heard that it was gunpowder, she quickly shook off the black ash in her hand, and took a few steps back, she even knew that she was afraid.

"But the gunpowder that has been burned should not explode again."

"Since this can really be made, let's give it a name, shall we? Gunpowder doesn't sound like a good name. ”

Black Kill is also a clever master, and everyone echoed this proposal.

When I was about to discuss what to choose a good name, someone seemed to come over outside the courtyard.

Then there was a crisp sound of breaking the door, and I saw his father kick and smash the courtyard door and pour into the courtyard with a group of family members.

His father was holding a blood-red knife in his hand, Hu Xiu always felt uncomfortable when he looked at it, this knife had an evil spirit, and it was very unlucky.

"Dad, why are you here?"

Hu Xiu greeted him awkwardly, didn't he just light a dynamite to play, and make such a big battle.

"Hugh, are you alright?"

Yu'er's mother stood beside Hu Feiwei, holding a pair of small short swords in her hands, which looked much more comfortable than his father's big knife.

"Of course it's fine, we didn't do anything."

"The special thunder just now, and the air wave?"

"Gunpowder."

"Gunpowder? What is gunpowder? ”

Hu Feiwei asked, it was very conspicuous, these two people didn't know.

Hu Xiu looked at the other people in the courtyard, I'll go, these people are really tight-lipped, until now, even the rumor of gunpowder has not been heard by people outside the courtyard.

"It's an explosive, it's extremely lethal, and the movement just now was made by gunpowder."

"Lethality? How big can it be? ”

"If the amount is sufficient, maybe, maybe we can blow up Ping'an City into the sky."

Hu Xiu specially asked Camellia, this peaceful city, covering an area of about 200 square kilometers and a population of nearly 5 million.

He didn't understand the explosives very well, he studied computer science in college. In his concept, as long as there are enough explosives, the entire Shenzhou Continent can blow you up to the sky.

I saw that the two of them looked at each other, and they didn't say much, and called Hu Xiu out of the yard.

Then, he was led to a room, and it didn't take long for all the big men to come in with a greeting.

Hu Xiu looked at them and felt familiar, most of them were the ones who came to his wedding that day.

Especially Liu Dingfang, who gave a woman as a gift, he can't forget that horizontal face.

Some people are handsome and unforgettable at first sight, but this Liu Dingfang has found another way, with an unsightly appearance, which is unforgettable.

With more and more people, except for an uncle with heavy pupils, holding a feather fan, he looks like a civil official. The others, all of them are long and strong, with fierce faces, looking like this, most of them are military generals.

The last person also stepped into the house, and when he looked at it, it was the emperor of Hu State, Hu Guizi, the king of Han, who came, and he left a bunch of folds on hand and went to King Hu's mansion.

Hu Xiu is also restrained, this day is the day, why is there trouble?

"Xiu'er, what kind of gunpowder are you talking about, can you really blow up this peaceful city to the sky?"

As King Han asked, all the big men with horizontal faces looked at Hu Xiu.

"It's a metaphor, it's just a metaphor. But theoretically speaking, as long as the amount of gunpowder is enough, it is completely possible to blow Heian Castle into ruins. ”

For a while, I didn't dare to say this big thing, and it was indeed unknown whether this could blow up to the sky.

"Then this is also very powerful."

King Han rubbed his chin thoughtfully.

"But it's just a theory, and now I can only make this kind of gunpowder that has to be burned to explode."

"Why does this scream of gunpowder and gunpowder sound so ugly?"

Hu Xiu turned his head and looked, yo~ is a familiar person, this sentence was said by Liu Dingfang.

"Lao Hei Liu, if you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute, Your Majesty hasn't spoken, what are you yelling about?"

"Ziqing, if you don't speak, no one will treat you as a dumb person."

For a while, these two people had a-for-tat confrontation again.

"Don't quarrel, look at the two of you, you're going to quarrel as soon as you meet. Look at which general is there, there is a general like you? ”

King Han couldn't help but interject.

The two generals also knew that they shouldn't be, and knelt down on one knee to the king of Han. This is the rule set by the first emperor, under the imperial court, the general worships the lord, and only needs to kneel on one knee.

Of course, if you are servile, you can also choose to bow down on both knees.

As for civil officials, whether they are in the court or under the court. When you want to kneel to the emperor, you have to kneel down on both knees.

In this world, the supremacy of force, some of the strongest can hold weapons in thousands or even thousands of armies, and take the head of the enemy's generals, such as probing for bags.

You can even kill seven in and seven out of the enemy's military formation, without hurting yourself, teasing the enemy in the palm of your hand. It is for these various reasons that those who are generals are better than those who are civilians.

But not so many people will think like this, and it is not excluded that people like Chen Li who have a bad brain in reading Confucian books.

Because there are always people who think that he can protect the country by holding a pen and talking. With his mouth, he can save a country, and this country will not live long without him.

Hmph~ Stupid people will not be lacking anywhere.

…

"I know that the two of you are still complaining about it. Forget it, I won't say more, even if I say more, you two won't listen. You've been arguing for more than 20 years, won't you get tired? ”

"No~"

"No~"

But the two people who listened to it said no in unison, these two people are really.

They all admit that they are wrong, admit themselves, but do not change. Even the King of Han can't do anything with them.

After all, they are heroes, and now they are of great use to him, and they can't be punished, and punishing them will chill the hearts of other generals.

"Alas~ I don't say much. Hugh, is your gunpowder easy to make? ”

"It's very easy, the materials are also very common, and the production should be very simple, as long as the proportions are correct, it can be made."

"Can you produce a lot of output?"

King Han asked where it was important.

"You can, but the gunpowder technique is not perfect."

"It's okay, just leave the rest to the Relic Pavilion. The way of learning things is not the way. Later, the people from the Relic Pavilion will come, and you just need to tell them the theory. If they can't make it, I'll ask them. ”

Sure enough, the emperor is still the emperor, that is, domineering. He didn't have to think that if his nephew's theory was wrong, the Relic Pavilion would not have been able to make it.

I just said one sentence, I can't make it, and I ask them. Just this question, it is necessary to kill people.

Hu Xiu scratched his head and thought about it again, this way of things is not a small way, and all aspects of life must involve it.

"Now that the matter is settled, let's think about what this thing is called. I also think that just calling it gunpowder is not very good. ”

Well, gunpowder, one of the four great inventions of ancient times, has to be renamed because of its unpleasant name?

"Your Majesty, since it is something made by the son of Prince Hu, then it is called Hu's gunpowder, right?"

Liu Dingfang first made a proposal.

"No, Lao Liu, you're too old-fashioned, how about calling it royal gunpowder?"

Another voice rang out, and a strong man offered another name, but the same thing was that it was just as clichΓ©.

"General Wang, your name is not good, listen to me, how about calling it Dahu gunpowder? Mighty and domineering. ”

Hu Xiu covered his ears, this group of people, fighting, is powerful, but most of them are not very high.

Then again, Miss Gao's Gao Mansion, isn't the head of the house a general? Why have you listened to it for a long time, and there is no general surnamed Gao?

"Everyone, be quiet, and listen to me, okay?"

The uncle who fanned the feather fan exhaled softly, and the crowd quieted down.

"Listening to Lord Hu's description, the sound of the explosion of gunpowder was like thunder. And this thunder is the thunder that is drawn down from the nine heavens, so why don't we change the name of this gunpowder to thunder? ”

Ziqing fanned the feather fan elegantly, but Hu Xiu was trembling when he heard it, thunder? Do you want to be so coincidental?

Thinking that this gunpowder would be called thunder in the future, I couldn't help but feel goosebumps on my body as if I was about to get up.

……

ps: The sound of artillery bombardment can be transmitted for dozens of kilometers, and it is impossible for the explosives made here to make such a big noise, but it is still possible to spread out of Hu Wangfu and to the streets.
