Chapter 210: It's hard to tell the truth from the fake
"It turned out to be a senior disciple of the Holy Fire Elder, so great, the old man has something unknown and wants to ask you. ”
When Liang Yehan heard this, he hurriedly said: "The general is polite, if you have anything to ask, I will definitely know everything, and I will say everything." ”
Chen Xiaotian said: "According to the old man, this thunder bomb is a secret that is not passed on in the Xun style in Shuzhong, how can the old man of the Apocalypse and other chaotic parties be able to control it?"
Liang Yehan said: "I am not satisfied with you, I also had a puzzle about this, and it was not until today that I returned to the ring with Lord Liu to check, and I didn't understand the reason." ”
"Oh, what's the reason?"
Liang Yehan said: "The thunder bomb that blew up the competition ring this time is not a real Xun-style thunder bomb, but a fake imitated by someone. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was surprised. Chen Yixin, who had been silent beside her, suddenly spoke: "Liang Nuxia, what is the basis for what you say?"
Liang Yehan said: "I am not talented, and I also know a little bit about the art of pyrotechnics, I was at the scene when the ring exploded, and I felt a little strange at the time, but at that time I was in the middle of the fire, and I only thought about how to escape, and I had no time to care about anything else." Today, Lord Liu and I brought more than a dozen brothers from the patrol army back to the foot of Qinglong Mountain, with the intention of recovering the thunder bombs that had not yet exploded. Unexpectedly, when I came to the ring, I found that the land at the scene had obvious traces of excavation. ”
Chen Xiaotian's thick eyebrows tightened, and he twisted his beard and said, "You mean that someone took a step ahead of you and dug up the remaining thunder bombs at the scene?"
Liang Yehan nodded, and was about to speak, but Chen Mo suddenly spoke: "Impossible! The scene of the ring is guarded by the patrol force and our escort battalion, and it is impossible for anyone to infiltrate the scene and dig up the thunder and fire bombs!"
Chen Yixin also said: "Yes, according to Pan Shaoxia, the thunder bomb is loaded in a special wooden box, and the weight is extremely heavy, and it takes at least four people to carry each box away." If it is true as you said, there are still more than 30 boxes of thunder and fire bombs in the ring that have not yet been detonated, so in this calculation, at least a team of more than 100 people can transport these thunder and fire bombs away. If such a team really appeared, it was impossible for the defenders in the ring to be unaware. ”
Liang Yehan said: "I think there must be a thunder bomb that has not yet been detonated in the ring, because Zhao Niantong and I have destroyed a lead, and the thunder bomb is buried deep underground, and if the lead fails, it will not be able to detonate, as for how many thunder bombs are buried under this lead, it is unknown." ”
"Let's leave the numbers aside. Liang Shaoxia, the old man wants to know how you can conclude that this thunder fire bomb is a fake?"
Liang Yehan said: "Back to the general's words, the thunder bomb is huge, unstoppable, it is the first firearm in the world, Shuzhong Xun style has this sharp weapon, it should be famous in the rivers and lakes, and the shock side is right, but the reality is that the Xun family was slaughtered by the Dragon Gang, and no one survived the whole door." On the day of the annihilation, why didn't the Xun clan use thunder bombs to defend against foreign enemies and repel enemies?"
Chen Mo said: "This is very simple, presumably the Dragon Gang has invited a lot of masters, and even if the Xun clan has the help of thunder and fire bombs, it will be difficult to resist." ”
Liang Yehan shook his head and said: "I believe you have all seen the power of the thunder fire bomb, in the face of this earth-destroying explosion, unless you are a Daluo Immortal, an immortal golden body, no matter how high your martial arts are, no matter how deep your cultivation is, as long as you are flesh and blood, I am afraid it will be difficult to escape this catastrophe." ”
Chen Mo said disapprerovingly: "I can't see it, didn't you and Zhao Niantong come back from the fire unscathed?"
Chen Xiaotian said with a stunned face: "Mo'er, don't interrupt, let Liang Shaoxia finish speaking." ”
Chen Mo snorted, stepped aside, and said no more. Liang Yehan continued: "The reason why Xunshi was destroyed was not because of the lack of power of the thunder fire bomb, nor how many masters were invited by the Dragon Gang, but because in the hands of the Xun style clan at that time, there was no thunder fire bomb available at all. ”
"Oh?!" Chen Xiaotian twisted his beard and said, "How do you say this?"
Liang Yehan said: "There are two main reasons why the thunder fire bomb is so powerful, one is that its production process is extremely complex, and the other is that the requirements for raw materials are extremely strict. A thunder bomb weighs about one pound and eight taels, and if you want to make it, you need at least five pounds of refined charcoal, ten pounds of saltpeter, and fifteen pounds of sulfur. If the thing that detonated the ring was a real thunder bomb, not to mention how the raw materials for sixty boxes of thunder bombs were gathered, it would be too late to calculate the production time alone. ”
"Master Li, dare to ask when the Chengdong Firecracker Factory was stolen?"
Li Zhun said: "Back to the general, it's the sixth day of the first month of March. ”
Everyone is thinking in their hearts when they hear it, today is the third day of the first month of June, and it is less than 90 days before the firecracker factory was stolen.
Chen Xiaotian nodded slowly and said, "In this way, from the perspective of time, this thunder fire bomb is indeed strange. ”
Liang Yehan said: "Not only that, but I found something suspicious when I was investigating the scene. ”
"Oh, what's wrong with the scene?"
"If it is a real lightning bomb explosion, its destructive force is to spread evenly in all directions, and after the explosion, the earth and stones at the site should be scattered around the center of the burial site. However, I carefully inspected the scene three times, and found that only the upper layer of soil was blasted open at each burial site, and the soil layer below and around it was not affected at all, which shows that the thunder bomb buried in the ring only exerted force in one direction when it exploded, and the power was far less than that of a real thunder bomb. ”
After hearing this, Chen Xiaotian nodded frequently and said: "Yes, what Liang Shaoxia said is very true, it seems that this thunder fire bomb is indeed a fake." However, even if it is a fake, the power should not be underestimated, and if the rebels really have more than 30 boxes in their hands, we should not take it lightly. ”
Li Zhun nodded and said, "The lower officials also think so. Fortunately, there seems to be a disagreement within the chaotic party, and at least eight boxes of thunder and fire bombs were stolen by a monk named Jing Nian. ”
When Chen Xiaotian heard this, he was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "Why did Jingnian steal the thunder bomb?"
Li Zhun shook his head and said, "I don't know, but Lord Liu has fought with the Jingnian monk, so I still ask him to talk about the specific situation." ”
Liu Chaozhong stepped forward, starting from receiving Zhang Huang's order, until the final fight with Jing Nian, how Zhao Niantong was injured by a needle, etc., after a detailed description, as for the arrest of Liang Yehan and Li Wanji in the middle, it was naturally omitted.
Chen Xiaotian, father and son, listened quietly, some of the things had been said by Pan Suxuan, but he was seriously injured, and some details were too late to ask. Now after listening to Liu Chaozhong's narration, the context of the whole thing gradually becomes clear.
Chen Xiaotian said in his heart: "If it is really as they said, the old man of the apocalypse and the two of them are separated from virtue and have their own ghosts, then it is really a godsend, and I, Chen Xiaotian, will definitely take this opportunity to wipe them out." ”
