Hearing Xiaodouzi's childish words, the person who was called Uncle Liu by Xiaodouzi couldn't help but smile silently, and at the same time, a feeling like Xiaodouzi welled up in his heart.

Uncle Liu and Xiaodouzi are both natives of Nanjing, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, for other places, or most places, it was a tragic era, but before that, Nanjing City was still a peaceful paradise, as one of the two capitals of the Ming Dynasty, he was still stable, and even compared to the war-torn Beijing, Nanjing was one of the few stable cities in this era.

People in this era, not to mention old age and death, do not get along, but most of the time, they are stationed in their respective hometowns, living a life of sunrise and sunset, because of the stability of Nanjing City, the people in the city are also stable, such as Uncle Liu and Xiaodouzi, although they can't eat big fish and meat, but they can still eat a full stomach.

Uncle Liu's original name was Liu Kang, and he was a craftsman who did fireworks and firecrackers, because the land south of the Yangtze River was rich and prosperous, and there were countless dignitaries and rich people, so that when fireworks and firecrackers were needed, there were more, although in Nanjing City, there were many craftsmen who made fireworks and firecrackers, but Liu Kang because it was an ancestral craft, in addition to being honest, there were still many people who bought fireworks and firecrackers from him, so his life was still good, not only took his wife, but also two sons and a daughter, this kind of life, in troubled times, It's already very good.

It's a pity that all this after the Manchu army invaded Nanjing City, it was completely over, when Nanjing City was about to be broken by the Manchu army, in order to ensure that there was enough manpower to defend the city, those Ming soldiers in Nanjing City went everywhere to capture Zhuang Ding on the city wall to defend the city, Liu Kang was caught on the city wall at some time, but unfortunately, the Ming defenders of Nanjing City were too incompetent, in the face of the attack of the Manchu army, they fled in the desert, and the city gate was quickly broken by the Manchu army, so that Liu Kang, the strong men who were caught in the city, fell into bad luck.

The Manchus thought that it was because of them that they had suffered losses, and they were arrested, if only so, it was nothing, after all, as long as they could survive, it would be okay to suffer some hardships, but unfortunately, what Liu Kang did not expect was that when he was captured by the Manchu army, it was the most turbulent time in the city of Nanjing, his wife, in order to find his life and death, ran around in the most turbulent time in the city, and unfortunately, ran into the Manchu Tartars who were looting everywhere in the city of Nanjing.

A weak woman, in the face of a group of wolves and tigers, what happened, needless to say, for all this, Liu Kang did not know, when later, under the operation of Hong Chengchou, after they were released and returned, what was waiting for him was not family joy, but a more tragic future, thinking that he could not face his wife, after seeing him come back, he hanged himself that night, in the face of such a blow, Liu Kang was completely dumbfounded, and what was even more cruel was that because he was sad that his wife died, three children, because of his young ageAt this time, the city of Nanjing was wreaking havoc everywhere in the Manchu Dynasty, where were the doctors and pharmacies daring to open their doors to do business, and a few days later, the three children were seriously ill and died.

In just a few days, the original peaceful, warm family disappeared like this, such a major blow, not to mention Liu Kang an ordinary person, even if it is a trained Predator, can not bear it, after a period of life is worse than death, Liu Kang finally woke up, at this time, there is only one thought in his mind, that is, revenge, revenge for his wife and children, he wants to kill all these damned, inhumane Tartars, so as to vent the boundless anger in his heart.

Since then, Liu Kang has changed from an honest and honest fireworks craftsman to a murderous weapon that lives for revenge, of course, he is not blindly revenge, but plans in advance, killing those lonely Manchu soldiers one by one, in the middle, he has met a group of people like him, who are also full of hatred for Manchu Tartars, and Xiaodouzi next to him is such a person.

Xiaodouzi is the same as him, he is also a native of Nanjing, but Xiaodouzi is just twelve years old this year, looks tall, but is still a naïve teenager, Xiaodouzi has parents died since he was a child, and his eldest brother and sister-in-law raised him, in his mind, his eldest brother and sister-in-law are his parents, but unfortunately, when he was eight years old, the eldest brother fell ill and went west, and since then, his sister-in-law has become his only relative.

Because his sister-in-law is quite beautiful, and did not have children, many people persuaded her to remarry a good family, but unfortunately for the sake of Xiaodouzi, his sister-in-law refused all this, everyone relied on hard laundry, embroidery to raise him to grow up, and, also save some money to save money, send him to the library to study, Xiaodouzi, who has been sensible since childhood, is very able to understand the good intentions of the sister-in-law, so, usually study very hard, in addition to him has a clever energy, although only twelve years old, Even many older scholars are lamented by the knowledge he can make, and even his teacher in the academy has decided to let him take the prefectural exam.

Just when everyone thought that Xiaodouzi's sister-in-law was about to come to the end of his bitterness, the inhumane Manchu Tartars invaded the city of Nanjing, Xiaodouzi will never forget that day, he hid in the attic of his home and silently reviewed the textbook, this is his habit, since he was a child, he likes to hide in the high school to read. And the sister-in-law was sitting in the kitchen to give him a meal, it was a fish, which the sister-in-law had saved for a few days before buying it back to make up for him.

But at this time, his originally not very strong gate was suddenly knocked open from the outside, and then, a group of Manchu Qing Tartars wearing iron armor, holding knives and guns, fierce and vicious, with braids, broke in, and after breaking in, they searched everywhere in the dilapidated courtyard, facing these demon-like Manchu Tartars, both Xiaodouzi and his sister-in-law were scared silly, they just silently watched those Manchu Tartars search everywhere.

It's a pity that even the food is thrifty at home, how can there be anything valuable, the Manchu Tartars who have nothing to gain, suddenly became angry, and the anger made them lose their reason and humanity, they set their eyes on Xiaodouzi's sister-in-law at this time, and the fierce and cruel eyes that seemed to be a beast looking at its prey made Xiaodouzi's sister-in-law suddenly understand something.

At this time, he turned around and fled accordingly, but unfortunately, how could she be the opponent of the group of Manchu Tartars who were like wolves and tigers, and did not escape far, they were caught by a Manchu Tartar, and soon, the group of Tartars surrounded them, seeing the scene in front of him, Xiaodouzi suddenly became angry, and he was about to struggle to jump off the attic and go to protect his sister-in-law, but unfortunately, when he had not yet acted, he saw a scene that he could never forget.

His sister-in-law glanced in the direction of the attic where he was, although she didn't speak, but Xiaodouzi clearly saw from his eyes the meaning that the sister-in-law wanted to express, that is, let him live well, no matter what, let him live well.

Immediately, he saw a painful look on his sister-in-law's face, and then, a blood stain was left on the corner of his sister-in-law's mouth.

After seeing the sister-in-law bite her tongue and commit suicide, the group of Manchu Tartars also felt a burst of resentment, they were furious, lit the torch, and burned Xiaodouzi's home, the only fortunate thing is that the houses built in the south of the Yangtze River are all connected to each other, Xiaodouzi, who is on the top of the attic, jumped to the house next door, and barely escaped a life, but unfortunately, because of the family members, Xiaodouzi can't even restrain the body of the sister-in-law, and finally in a charred yard, Only found a few charred bones, looking at the bones in his hand, thinking about his sister-in-law who was like his own mother, Xiaodouzi's heart was full of hatred.

Uncle Liu and Xiaodouzi are just representatives of countless people in Nanjing who were plagued by Manchu Tatars, and they were still fighting separately at the beginning, but with the loss of time, coupled with the intentional tandem of nightingales active in Nanjing City, these individuals or forces that used to fight separately slowly formed a powerful combination, and this time, within three days, the action of killing more than 300 Manchu soldiers was made by them together.

"Uncle Liu, I heard that an order has been sent from above this time, saying that we should not act in the near future, otherwise, there will be a great chance of being caught by the Manchu dog Tartars, do you think our action today is appropriate?" While preparing, Xiaodouzi asked Uncle Liu next to him in a low voice.

Hearing Xiaodouzi's words, Uncle Liu on the side laughed in a low voice, and then said, "Flutter, Xiaodouzi, you are really a child, you usually say that you are small, you still don't admit it, Uncle Liu told you that the above orders are just orders, what does it matter if we listen to them or not, besides, there is such a good opportunity to kill these dog Tartars and avenge our relatives, do you just watch this opportunity and are not moved, don't you forget, what you said to your sister-in-law at that time, besides, After our action was done, we left, and those dog Tartars were able to catch us from somewhere, these are the ignorant and nonsense of those people above, what should we do and what we should do, anyway, as long as I can kill the Tartars, I am not afraid. ”

After listening to Uncle Liu's words, Xiaodouzi couldn't help but nodded, thinking of the scene of his sister-in-law's tragic death, he couldn't care about anything else.

Just as they were talking, on the street, the pair of Manchu patrols had already walked to the outside of the wooden house where they were, and after seeing this scene through the cracks in the wooden house, they saw Liu Kang's originally calm face, and suddenly showed a hideous expression, and shouted loudly, "Little bean, light the fire." ”

Liu Kang shouted while lighting the bird gun in his hand, and the little bean next to him also ignited the bird gun in his hand at the same time, and suddenly, he heard two explosions, one after the other, and then, he saw that among the Manchu patrols who were originally lined up neatly, four or five people suddenly fell to the ground on their backs.

This kind of bird gun is the oldest thing, and the ammunition fired is not the huge iron egg used in the army, but the same as the future, very fine iron sand, this kind of iron sand is not far away, and the lethality is not much, but it is precisely because of this reason that his killing area is huge, and those Manchu patrols who fell to the ground were not attacked on their bodies, but were hit on the face or hands by these iron sands, in this case, the severe pain made them have no ability to resist at all.

Seeing that their teammates were attacked, the soldiers of the Manchu patrol who were saved immediately surrounded the wooden house, these days' attacks, the tragic death of more than 300 soldiers, made these Manchu soldiers also angry, this time they finally found an opportunity, they must catch this thief who dared to sneak attack their Manchu elite.

Seeing the Manchu soldiers getting closer and closer to him, Liu Kang and Xiaodouzi in the wooden house not only did not feel afraid, but showed inexplicable smiles on their faces.

"Little Bean, are you ready?" After loading the bird gun in his hand, Liu Kang asked the little bean beside him.

"Don't worry, Uncle Liu, it's been so many times, when did I drop the chain, I was already ready, this time I will definitely be able to send all these dog tartars to hell, so that they can taste the torture of the eighteenth layer of hell." Little Beans said.

After the two finished speaking, they got up one after another, and climbed out of the small hole that had been prepared at the back of the wooden house, and before they climbed out, Liu Kang used the fire fold in his hand to ignite a medicine twist in the wooden house, and in the dark environment, this medicine twist burned quickly.

At this time, the Manchu soldiers outside had already come to the outside of the house, not because they were bold, but because this wooden house looked like it was only able to hide a few people from the outside, and there were more than 20 of them, how could they be afraid?

After coming to the outside of the wooden house and surrounding the wooden house, under the order of the Manchu soldiers led by the leader, several Manchu soldiers kicked the door of the wooden house open, and then rushed in, but unfortunately, to their surprise, there was nothing in the wooden house at all, let alone people, not even ghosts.

Just when they were puzzled, they saw one of the Manchu soldiers pointing to the burning medicine twist and screaming loudly, seeing which medicine twist, all the Manchu soldiers immediately panicked, they are often in the barracks, but they are familiar with the medicine twist, and they are even more familiar with the thing behind the medicine twist, that is, gunpowder.
