Chapter 8: Thunderstorm

Find the eldest brother Qin Hai, "Brother, I want to build a powerful weapon, I need something, can you help me get it?"

"What kind of thing, the old fairy told you again?"

Qin Chuan grinned, "This thing is called Heaven-shaking Thunder, and it needs sulfur, miscanthus salt, charcoal, clay pots, thin bamboo pipes, and it's best to get some iron filings and copper nails and the like!"

Qin Hai thought about it, sulfur and miscanthus need to be purchased from the pharmacy, charcoal, bamboo pipes and clay pots are all ready-made, as for the iron filings, just ask Blacksmith Liu for a little directly!

"Okay, how much do you want?"

"The more the merrier, but don't tell your father yet, if you don't need it, forget it!"

Qin Hai nodded, asked his mother for the money, and then took Qin Yang to buy it.

Qin Chuan himself was not idle, and prepared grinders, hemp paper and other things.

More than an hour later, Qin Hai had already brought all the things he wanted, and the three brothers went out of the earthen fort, found a secluded place, and then began to divide labor and cooperate, according to Qin Chuan's method to make "homemade 'hand' grenade" bombs.

This thing is not too difficult to make, the key is to twist the main raw materials into powder, evenly configure them in proportion, and then fill them into clay pots, seal them with fish glue and red mud, and insert a bamboo tube to install a fuse.

Due to the limited materials, the three of them were busy for most of the day to make ten.

"Xiao Chuan, is this thing really useful?" Qin Yang obviously didn't believe it, in his opinion, the guy in his hand could smash people's heads at most, and the things inside would make people dizzy, and it didn't seem to be much different from the common ash bottle cannons in defending the city, and Qin Hai also looked skeptical.

"Hehe, let's find an open place to test it, and you can also learn how to use the Heaven-shaking Thunder!"

The three of them came to the beach together, Qin Chuan asked the two brothers to stay away, he took out the fire fold and lit the fuse himself, and when the fuse burned to most of it, he threw it directly into the distance, and at the same time lay on the ground.

"Boom" was an earth-shattering loud bang.

"Eh, mother!" Qin Yang was so frightened that he fell directly to the ground, and Qin Hai couldn't help but take a few steps back.

The smoke cleared, Qin Chuan walked over, and a half-foot-deep sand pit appeared at the place of the explosion, and there was a mess around it.

"Tsk, it's so powerful after filling so much black powder, it seems that the craftsmanship is not too good!" Qin Chuan shook his head, as if he was very dissatisfied.

At this time, Qin Hai and Qin Yang also reacted, "Haha, the old immortal is the old immortal, this heaven-shaking god is really extraordinary!"

"Yes, if there are hundreds or thousands, what are you afraid of?"

Seeing the two elder brothers eager to try, Qin Chuan had to pour cold water on them, "This thing must be kept secret, if you let the pirates and gangsters know the formula, have you thought about the consequences?"

"We won't tell anyone else the formula!" Qin Yangshi said with certainty.

"I'm afraid we won't be able to do it then!"

Qin Hai is not very old, but he is old, "The third brother is right, this thing must not be taken out unless it is absolutely necessary, even if it must be taken out, it must be said that the old immortal gave it!"

"Does my father want to hide it too?"

"Of course, especially the second brother, you have to swear!"

"Okay, I swear!" Qin Yang was intimidated by the power of his eldest brother, so he could only swear that if he leaked the secret, he would let himself be beaten for the rest of his life.

When the evening was approaching, there was a sudden sound of people shouting and neighing horses on the official road of Qinjiawan, and it was needless to ask that the forward of the pirates had already clashed with the archers who were ambushed on both sides of the official road, and the people in the earthen fort couldn't help but get nervous.

It didn't take long for Qin Chuan, who was standing above the earthen wall to watch, saw a large group of pirates riding horses outside the village, and the obstacles successfully blocked the bandits from entering the village, and the archers shot a rain of arrows, and more than a dozen pirates fell off their horses, but because the earthen bows and arrows were less powerful, and all of these pirates were wearing leather armor, only two or three people were really killed.

Soon, the defense at the entrance of the village was broken, those bandits were very fierce and bloodthirsty, and several villagers who did not come and retreated into the village were all dismembered by random blades, these guys shouted loudly to spend the night in Qinjiawan, to kill all the men in the village, to kidnap the women in the village, for a time the timid women and children were scared and trembling, and the children cried and called for their mothers!

Seeing this scene, Qin Chuan couldn't help but secretly shook his head, the strength of the two sides is not at the same level after all, if it weren't for the fact that the hearts of Qinjiawan were relatively united, and everyone had no way out, I am afraid that they would lose the courage to resist this time.

The villagers took advantage of the terrain to resist in front of the house and behind the house, and this kind of street fighting finally temporarily slowed down the bandits.

Qin Hai and dozens of reserve villagers also went out to support, Qin Yang took a harpoon and wanted to go out with him, but was stopped by Qin's mother, her husband and eldest son were desperate outside, she didn't want her second son to go to danger.

The shouts of killing, the screams, made this peaceful fishing village no longer peaceful, everywhere was full of blood, Qin Chuan clasped his hands, his relatives and villagers were desperate, but he couldn't help, that indescribable sense of powerlessness sprouted again, these years of comfortable life gradually consumed his will, he thought that the people of this world were simple, but the facts are in front of him, no matter which world he is in and what era he is in, he can't escape the law of the jungle, the so-called fairness and justice are only for the strong, so only by becoming stronger, only by becoming a strong person can he not be bullied, in order to defend his relatives, at this moment, Qin Chuan's pure eyes burst into flames, and he secretly vowed to stand on the top of the strong!

When the last wisp of the sunset disappeared into the sea level, the townsmen had all retreated into the earthen fort, this time the casualties were extremely heavy, more than 20 townsmen died in battle, half of them were injured, Qin Biao was also injured, his left arm was slashed, and the muscles rolled and the white bones could be faintly seen, thanks to a cowhide armor, otherwise the left arm might not be saved.

Qin's mother cried and cried to help her husband with medicine and bandage, while Qin Chuan and Qin Yang helped Qin Haihai with medicine, and there was a scar on his thigh, but fortunately it was not serious.

The casualties of the pirates are also not light, this is the most tragic one since they attacked Wanghai City, but this aroused their ferocity even more, and they attacked the earthen fort, but more than 100 people have no siege equipment, it is obviously not easy to break through the earthen fort.

Hitting the door with a giant log, the archers on the earthen wall will not let them get their wish, climb the city with flying claws, and the knife and axe hand directly cut the rope, and the city and countryside are also not advantageous, and several impacts not only did not attack, but also lost more than a dozen people.

The leader of the pirates, who had been supervising the battle, finally showed his impatience, patted the black bag on his waist, and had a yellow paper talisman in his hand, and in an instant, a golden light armor appeared on the person's body.

Qin Chuan, who assisted in defending the city, almost blurted out, "Golden Armor Fu, that person is actually a monk!"

He had seen Xu Guozhong use the golden armor talisman with his own eyes, but it was a pity that he didn't block Zhang Jingxuan's flying sword, but this did not mean that the defense of this golden armor talisman was very fragile, at least the earthen arrows shot by the villagers might not be able to penetrate this layer of defense.

In a moment of his astonishment, the leader of the pirates had already leapt up and shot towards the city like a big bird.

"Shoot him quickly!" Qin Long shouted as the spear in his hand was thrown at the bandit leader.

The bandit leader couldn't dodge in mid-air, but as soon as the big knife in his hand was pressed, he actually took advantage of a somersault to go up to the city, and several arrows hit him, and the golden light armor shook and broke in response, but in the end it was blocked by the leather armor on his body.

Just as the crowd was about to besiege him, another layer of light suddenly appeared on this person's body, and he immediately floated into the earthen fort.

"Oh no, stop him from opening the door!"

The castle was full of old and weak women and children and injured villagers, and the bandit leader cut down two people several times, and threw out several talismans that turned into several fireballs in an instant, frightening the villagers to retreat.

The pirates outside the fort took the opportunity to launch another strong attack, as long as the gate was opened, Qinjiawan would face an unprecedented catastrophe!
