He crept to the back of the house, jumped on the roof, and set it on fire.

Half of the roof of the Chen family is made of wheat straw. In the blink of an eye, the fire soared. By the time it was discovered, it was impossible to extinguish. The people in the house had to run out.

Captain Zhang shouted: "Someone has set fire, everyone be careful, pay attention to the search." ”

The soldiers surrounded the Chen family. The wine-colored monk had already gone out of the circle and was watching coldly.

The fire is getting bigger and bigger. Suddenly, there was a loud "boom", like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and a landslide and the ground cracked. Fireballs, tiles, wooden blocks, masonry and stone were everywhere, mixed with the screams of people.

It turned out that a large bag of fire powder that Chen Xingwen was hiding at home exploded. In those days, no one had ever seen such an explosion. Everyone present, except for those who were not killed, were all terrified. Even the wine-colored monk in the distance was frightened and frightened, glad that he was far away.

Captain Zhang injured one of his hands by the flying stones, and he didn't dare to stay for a long time: "Hurry, hurry, hurry back and report to General Li!" After speaking, he ran away with his living subordinates.

The wine-colored monk originally wanted to wait for them to go and look for something, but he didn't expect this explosion, and the house was already unrecognizable, leaving only ruins and broken walls. Afraid of another explosion, he stayed for a while and slipped away.

What everyone didn't expect was that this explosion left a piece of evidence for history. More than 1,000 years later, in 2015, a construction team dug up an artifact in the Chen family's homestead, which was verified by experts to be a musket from the late Tang Dynasty. After the analysis of the relics at the sampling site, it was found that there were some high-explosive components such as glyceryl trinitrate and mercury rayate. Thus, the history of the musket was advanced by hundreds of years.

Besides, Captain Zhang returned to the General's Mansion and reported what happened in Chen's house to Li Siyuan and Li Cunxiao. The two generals were suspicious, for they had never seen such an explosion, or even heard of it.

Li Cunxiao was thinking about what to do next, when a messenger from Taiyuan Mansion reported to him that the King of Jin and the King of Liang would meet in Bianzhou to discuss an armistice, and ordered him to leave for Taiyuan Mansion as soon as possible to arrange for an escort. Li Cunxiao didn't dare to stay for a long time, and planned to leave at dawn.

Li Siyuan said: "The thirteenth brother should not return empty-handed, take Chen Xingwu away, finally you and I have an explanation to my father." If you can't find Chen Xingwen in the future, you won't even have someone to be angry. How is it good for the father to blame him?"

Li Cunxiao thought for a while and said, "It's still the eldest brother who thinks about it thoroughly." You and my brother said privately: There is no one else that my father really trusts except his own son Li Cunqing. If I met Chen Xingwen on the way, I would take him back to Taiyuan Mansion directly, and at the same time send someone to inform my eldest brother. ”

Li Siyuan said: "This is very good. Don't forget, if you have time, go and propose to my mother as soon as possible, Jiaojiao girl has to be managed. ”

Li Cunxiao said: "It must be! Thank you for the success of the eldest brother first!"

In addition to brotherhood, holding each other together is also the way for them to survive and grow, especially because of Chen Xingwu's matter, if there is no result, Li Siyuan needs Li Cunxiao to help him say a few kind words in front of Li Keyong, and it is naturally his sister Li Jiaojiao who is close to their relationship.
