Chapter 326: Ominous Stone

"Boom!"

The sound of the earth shaking and the mountains shook, rising into the sky.

On the east side of Cloudsdale, next to the large blister, a small warehouse for storing gunpowder exploded. The people guarding the warehouse were engulfed in flames in an instant.

All the people howled in terror.

"Vulcan Fury!" Someone ran and howled and screamed.

Yan Ming opened his eyes in the Yunzhong County Guard's Mansion, how could he have a feeling that the ground was shaking in the early morning.

Before Yan Ming could fully wake up, there was already the sound of hurried footsteps outside. Yan Ran rubbed his worried eyes in his quilt and muttered, "What's wrong?" ”

"Master Hou, there was an explosion in the warehouse in Dongcheng, and the fire was soaring into the sky. The black cloud was like a mushroom. The casualties are unknown! Cheng Xin hurriedly ran in and said.

Yan Ming did it as soon as he turned over, and he didn't even care that Yan Ran was almost gone.

Cheng bowed his head and retreated. Although he is a eunuch, he still adheres to etiquette.

To the east, next to the blister, that's where gunpowder is made. According to Chengxin, this is an explosion.

There is Yan Ming's hard work. If it explodes, the production of fire and thunder in Cloud City will be affected, and it will be weak in the face of the large attack of the Xiongnu.

Yan Ming's eyes were about to burst into flames.

How many times have you said it, be safe, pay attention to open flames and dark fires. But something went wrong.

When I came out of the county guard's house, the horses outside had already been prepared.

Yan Ming didn't care about his disheveled clothes, so he directly turned over his horse and ran towards the east side of Cloud City.

The whole of Cloudsdale is now in chaos.

Wei Qing ordered the Hu Cavalry Captain, who was in charge of defending the city, to defend the city wall, while he led the rest of the people to the place where the accident occurred in Dongcheng.

Yan Ming and Wei Qing met halfway through.

The two men didn't say much. The blast area in the East City is not large. Only one of the storage warehouses exploded.

The surrounding people dealt with it in a timely manner, and immediately after the explosion, someone isolated the fire with water. A clearing was quickly cleared around it.

The fire did not spread.

Looking at a group of busy workers, one by one hurriedly carrying water, isolated. Yan Ming's frowning brows loosened a lot. As long as the fire does not spread, the loss of a warehouse is nothing. It's not about breaking the muscles and bones.

"Where's the person in charge!" Yan Ming shouted.

Today, if you don't kill the person in charge, you want him to peel off a layer of skin and have a long memory.

When a small worker on the side heard Yan Ming's inquiry, he cried with a wow: "Master Hou, our superintendent is gone in the fire!" ”

Yan Ming was stunned when he heard this, since Du Jian was killed, there was no one responsible for this matter.

"What's the matter with you?" Yan Ming saw a large burn on Xiao Gong's arm at a glance.

The little worker snorted and said, "When the fire was on fire, I was also there." The huge wave of air blew me out, and I was slightly burned, but it was out of the way. ”

Perhaps because he was afraid that Yan Ming would investigate the responsibility, Xiao Gong tried his best to say that his injury was not in the way.

Yan Ming grabbed him, this little worker was at the scene, and he must know the ins and outs of the matter. Yan Ming was most worried that the Huns' spies would sneak in and destroy Yunzhong City.

Xiao Gong didn't dare not tell Yan Ming the truth, and when he saw Yan Ming holding him, he was so anxious that he immediately cried. said: "Master Hou, at that time, Du Jian asked us to find a few stones, pounce on them with wooden boards, and lift up the medicinal powder produced, saying that it was to prevent moisture. But who knows, as soon as those two stones collide, they will catch fire! ”

The little worker howled and cried, looking very wronged.

Yan Ming stretched out his hand and patted him on the head and said, "I know, this matter has nothing to do with you." Go to the medic for burns, you are not needed here. ”

Xiao Gong was stunned, but he didn't expect Yan Hou to blame himself, and let himself go to the doctor.

Yan Ming walked directly from the open place to the center of the explosion.

Wei Qing stopped him and said, "I don't know if there are any fire mines in there that haven't exploded, it's too dangerous for you to go over." ”

Yan Ming stretched out his hand and patted Wei Qing's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Third brother, when you go to the battlefield and fight alone, I advise you that you will not listen." That's because heads-up is your war, and the explosion here is my war. ”

Saying this, Yan Ming walked into the central area without looking back.

Wei Qing stomped his feet and walked in.

The center of the warehouse is extremely embarrassing. A huge pit exploded in the ground, and thick smoke and dust were coming out of it. From time to time, you can see the beating sparks.

On the edge of the pit, there are scattered limbs, which seem to be the workers and overseers who guard the warehouse. However, they were all burned into mutilated carbon black in an instant by fire and explosion, and it was impossible to tell who was who.

"Clean up the body, there's no danger." Yan Ming looked at the buckets of water around him, like a barrier, and said reassuringly.

Immediately someone came and burned those few to the ground. The humanoid body was lifted out.

"These are the heroes of my Han Dynasty, so let's bury them." Yan Ming said.

"No!" The lieutenants of the Hu cavalry agreed.

The dilapidated appearance around made Yan Ming's mood very low. Gunpowder is the devil, yes. As soon as it was developed, it actually killed these innocent workers.

Looking at the ground, some of the gravel was scattered horizontally, making it look extremely messy.

Yan Ming knew that the superintendent was kind.

At this time, it is the season of early spring, and there will be morning dew slowly, and if the gunpowder is placed directly next to the ground, it is easy to get wet.

The reason why he asked people to build a suspended platform was to prevent the gunpowder from getting wet.

The cause of the accident should be that he chose the wrong stone.

Yan Ming squatted down and carefully inspected the stones. It looks like it's the same.

Yan Ming struck one by one, and the stones made a dull sound.

There was even a stone with a finger on it, which made people look extremely uncomfortable.

Suddenly, Yan Ming's eyes froze, and he saw two different stones not far away.

"What is this?" Yan Ming groaned and walked over quickly.

Wei Qing followed behind, for fear that Yan Ming would be in danger.

Yan Ming picked up two stones, looked at them carefully, and even put them on the side of his nose and smelled them.

"Could it be it?" Yan Ming raised his hand and slammed the two stones together.

With Yan Ming's collision, a series of sparks crackled and erupted from the place where the two stones collided.

Wei Qing on the side opened his mouth wide in surprise, and said after a while: "The explosion, is it caused by this stone?" ”

Yan Ming nodded and said, "If that little worker didn't lie, it seems that the culprit is these two stones." If he hasn't left, call him over and identify him. ”

After a while, the little worker came, and when he saw the two stones, his emotions collapsed.

"These are these two stones, and if they hadn't been brought back, how could there have been such a disaster. These two stones are ominous! The worker cried.
