Follow the old man into the building and walk towards the room on the right hand side of the door. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

As soon as I entered the room, I smelled a pungent smell of gunpowder. Ye Cheng followed behind the old man, relying on the faint light of the oil lamp, he looked around the house, and was suddenly a little stunned!

Although the house was dim and dark, it was still possible to see the spherical bombs placed around the room. The number of bombs is so large that there are hundreds of bombs scattered all around, and if you roughly calculate them.

In Ye Cheng's surprise, the old man walked towards the door to a long table in front of him, and lit another oil lamp on the long table.

The brightness of the two oil lamps illuminated the room, and a large number of spherical bombs appeared in front of him.

The five apprentices looked at the five brothers with excitement on their faces and said, "Master, look, there are so many bombs ......."

Everyone stood near the doorway, staring at each other in astonishment.

Ye Cheng walked towards the long table in the middle at this time, and the long table was already covered with a thick layer of dust, and some design drawings and tools were hidden under the dust.

And in the corner of the long table, he also saw a champion hat, Ye Cheng felt as if he was acquainted, as if he had seen it somewhere. He picked up the hat and shook off the dust from it, and looked at it carefully, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.

At this time, everyone also walked behind Ye Cheng.

Zhu Ziju saw that Ye Cheng was staring at the champion hat, he also came up strangely, took a closer look, and said with some suspicion, "Eighth brother, where have we seen this hat?" ”

"Well, I feel this way too, but I just can't remember where I've seen it" Ye Cheng flipped and checked.

"This is my son's hat, he has been fond of officials since he was a child, so he often wears this hat. He also liked to work on bombs, and I was always against his development because I was afraid that the explosives would suddenly explode. In the end, he got angry and left the house, and never came back," the old man said in a low tone, gently setting the oil lamp.

Ye Cheng felt the old man's sad mood, and he asked worriedly, "Old man, are you okay?" ”

"It's okay, I just hope that Ren'er can return to the Tiangu Kingdom one day and come to meet me, an old man who has half of his body in the ground," the old man said.

"Ren'er?" When Ye Cheng heard this name, he was immediately a little afraid, and he spontaneously had a name in his heart. He turned his head to look at Zhuziju on the side, swallowed his saliva, and stared at a pair of surprised eyes.

And Zhu Ziju also stared, looked at the old man in surprise and asked, "May I ask the old man, what is your son's full name?" ”

The old man looked at the explosives, turned his back to everyone and said lightly, "Qiu Ren"

"What! Are you Joren's father? Zhuziju shouted in astonishment.

This shout made the old man feel more energetic, he looked at Zhuziju and asked, "Have you seen Ren'er?" Is he doing now? He hasn't been heard from since he left home."

These words surprised people who had experienced the crisis in the county seat of Oasis County! Frightened!! Everyone looked at the hunched body of the old man in horror, and their hearts were full of guilt.

When dealing with the Three Tigers, Qiu Ren had been blurred by Xia Meng's flesh and blood with brick slag, and he died in Huangquan, separated by Yin and Yang.

But what Ye Cheng didn't expect was that there was such an elderly man in Qiu Ren's family, and he said cautiously in his heart, "If the old man knows that Qiu Ren is dead, how desperate will he be?" No, you can't let the old man know."

Ye Cheng bowed to the old man and explained, "Old man, when we were in Xiaoluan Kingdom, we had a relationship with him, that's all."

The old man's smile just now became gloomy again, "That's the case, then let's hurry up and carry the gunpowder." You must be very careful, there is gunpowder scattered all around."

Ye Cheng saw the old man's sad expression, and he felt very uncomfortable. But letting the old man know that Qiu Ren had been killed by them would make the old man even more sad, and maybe he would not hand over the bomb to them.

Ye Cheng turned his head and said with a gloomy face, "Time is pressing, everyone hurry up and move the bomb out"

.........

Four o'clock in the morning.

The wind was cold, and the surroundings became silent, without the noise of battle, and without the cries of jungle birds. Only the leaves rustle in the wind, and the flames of the bonfire dance in the wind, like a dancing little girl.

After four or five hours, Beimao finally dug a cave that led to the enemy camp.

Ye Cheng and the others stood on the side of the road around the mountain, looking at the enemy barracks at the foot of the mountain, and the barracks lit piles of bonfires, like some shining stars in the night.

"Eighth brother, let's act," the sons said.

"Brother Ye, I have dug ten holes around the barracks that can expose one person's body, and if you want to throw bombs, you can choose 10 people with great strength," Bei Mao said weakly as he sat on the ground.

"Strength? Of course, there are ten of us masters and apprentices! Zhuzi roared haughtily.

"Count me in," Baifang said.

"Brother Baifang, leave these physical tasks to us, we strike iron all year round and exercise a lot of strength," Zhu Ziye said with some proud puffing up his arm muscles.

“.... But I want to avenge the dead white army," Bai Fang is still insisting.

Zhu Zile walked to Bai Fang's side, "Although you are a head and a half taller than us, we are not inferior to you in strength, so these physical tasks are still left to us" He raised his head and looked at Bai Fang, knowing that he was seeking humiliation, he immediately walked away.

"That's right! General Baifang, these things should be left to ten of them who look the same. Beimao also helped to persuade on the side.

Under everyone's persuasion, Bai Fang began to hesitate, but the idea of avenging the white army still lingered.

At this time, Bai Yingping stood beside Ye Cheng and asked, "You haven't been talking, what are you thinking?" ”

Ye Cheng was staring at the bottom of the mountain at the moment, and his mood was a little solemn. Thinking of the old man's affairs and waiting for the meeting, he will throw bombs at the enemy, and then the stars in the dark night at the bottom of the mountain will turn into a sea of fire, and those unsuspecting enemy troops will be buried in the sea of fire.

It was all human lives, and although it was an enemy army, Ye Cheng still had mercy.

An Xin kept watching Ye Cheng from the side, knowing Ye Cheng's hesitation, she slowly walked to Ye Cheng's side and asked softly, "Are you still thinking about the old man?" ”

Ye Cheng turned his head to look at Anxin, what he wanted in his heart was guessed by Anxin, and he felt a little surprised for a while. I always feel that this beauty is not inferior to Xia Meng, and I can guess what I am thinking at some squeamish moments.

Ye Cheng shook his head solemnly, and turned to everyone in front of him, "Time is pressing, let's start acting." The work of throwing bombs is handed over to 10 masters and apprentices, and General Baifang will trouble you to use the casting speed to help transport the bombs into the hole, and the rest of the people will go to rest and wait for the final battle with the enemy after dawn."
