Chapter 182: Explosion
After confirming that Cheng Kun had gone away, Yang Xiao was relieved, and he was secretly relieved in his heart, Cheng Kun was too treacherous, fortunately he was injured by a yang finger, and he didn't dare to stay in the Mingjiao place for a long time.
Only then did he notice that the fingers on Xiao Zhao's lips could clearly feel her rapid breathing and slightly trembling snort.
Yang Xiao only thought that she was too scared, so he said with relief: "Although we are temporarily trapped now, it is better than being smashed into a meatloaf directly by a big stone, and maybe you can get out if you want to think about it! Xiao Zhao, don't be afraid!"
Xiao Zhao lowered his head when he heard this, "I'...... Don't be afraid, don't be afraid if the master is here!"
Yang Xiao thought about groping for the fire fold from his body, took it out, and then said: "It's a pity that there is only a fire fold, no candles, and I don't know how long I will be sleepy?" Xiao Zhao, do you still have fire on your body?"
Xiao Zhao was stunned when she heard this, she naturally brought the fire fold on her body when she came down, but she told Yang Xiaoying just now that she fell here unintentionally, if she really took out the fire fold, wouldn't she not admit herself?
But thinking about the current situation of the two of them, I was afraid that I would be broken here, Xiao Zhao still took out a fire fold from his arms and said, "I...... I've got a fire fold on me, but I don't have a candle, and I don't have a torch here, so I'm afraid we won't last long!"
Yang Xiao nodded and then said, "Don't be busy lighting the fire first!"
Then I walked only a few steps along the road, and I reached the end.
He groped around, and suddenly Yang Xiao reached out and touched a wooden barrel, and said happily: "There is!"
With a palm in his hand, he split the wooden barrel, only to feel that a lot of powder was scattered from the barrel, and he didn't know whether it was lime or flour, he picked up a piece of wood and said, "You light the torch!"
Xiao Zhao took out the fire knife, flint, and velvet, lit the fire, leaned over and lit the wood chips, and suddenly the fire was dazzling, and the wood chips immediately burned violently.
The two of them were startled, and when they smelled a smell of nitrate, they exclaimed, "It's gunpowder!"
Yang Xiao lifted the wood chips high, and when he looked at the powder in the barrel, it was indeed black gunpowder← and laughed in a low voice: "If the sparks splash out, I'm afraid that there will be a few more pockmarks on your pretty face!"
Yang Xiao said as he held up the wooden bar and inspected the surrounding scene.
I saw that there were some bows and arrows scattered on the ground where I was, most of them were rusty, and it was obvious that the people of the Ming Sect used to defend against foreign enemies in the tunnel≠ and inspected the surrounding walls, but there was no gap, there was really nothing to do.
Suddenly, Yang Xiao's heart moved, leaned over and picked up a spear, took it in his hand, felt very heavy, as if there were forty pounds, and said: "This lot of gunpowder may be able to save us from danger, it seems that our lives should not be extinguished!"
Xiao Zhao clapped his hands and said, "Good idea, good idea! Maybe you can blow up the boulder!"
Yang Xiao shook his head with a smile and said, "That big stone weighs thousands of catties, I'm just afraid of it!"
As he spoke, he lifted his spear, walked under the boulder, and stood sideways for a moment, unable to hear Cheng Kun's breathing, and thought that he was far away.
Xiao Zhao raised the torch and shone on the side.
Yang Xiao said: "It is estimated that it will not be broken at one explosion, and it seems that it will be separated several times." At that moment, he used his arms to slowly stab a hole with a spear in the gap between the boulder and the road.
Xiao Zhao handed over the gunpowder, and Yang Xiao put the gunpowder into the hole, reversed the spear, beat it with the handle of the spear, and then laid a gunpowder line, which led to the bottom as an introduction.
He took the torch from Xiao Zhao's hand, Xiao Zhao stretched out his hands to cover his ears, and leaned over to light the medicine lead, seeing a little spark burning forward along the powder line.
There was a loud bang suddenly, and a violent heat rushed in, and he reached out to wrap his arms around Xiao Zhao's waist and protect her behind him.
The corridor was filled with smoke, and the torches were extinguished by the heat.
Seeing that the smoke in the corridor had faded a little, Yang Xiao lit the torch and looked forward, only to see that the boulder was safe and sound, and only a very small corner was blown away.
Xiao Zhao was also quite frustrated when he saw it, and said, "I'm afraid that we will have to blow it up seven or eight more times before we can get through." However, the remaining gunpowder can only be blown up two or three times at most. ”
Yang Xiao turned around and saw that there was indeed not much gunpowder in the barrel, but he was not as pessimistic as Xiao Zhao, he lifted the spear and did not care about the big stone, but instead stabbed a spear on the wall of the road, kept drilling, and suddenly a big rock rolled down, revealing a hole.
Xiao Zhao was surprised and delighted when he saw it, and Yang Xiao smiled: "Sure enough!"
This is based on the direction distribution in the secret passage that he memorizes in his heart, and knows that there should be another stone chamber next to this passage.
Compared with the large stone that weighs 1,000 catties and has a diameter of about 1 meter, the wall between this corridor and the stone chamber next to it is only about two or three feet, and it is better to blast this wall faster than to blast stones.
Yang Xiao picked up the spear from the ground, and then used the spear to keep drilling the spear where the stones on the wall of the corridor just now had fallen off.
About half a stick of incense, he had already drilled a small hole as deep as the spearhead, and then Yang Xiao also used the spear to drill a hole of general depth about three or four inches next to him.
Then he took gunpowder, filled it into the hole, filled it with the tip of a spear, and then drew a line of fire and lit it with a torch.
After this explosion, the two holes had been blown up like a large bowl, and the inside cracked open by more than a foot.
Xiao Zhao on the side saw this scene, his eyes also lit up, revealing an excited look, and he didn't care about the smoky and excited clapping his hands at this time.
Yang Xiao also nodded secretly, after all, the craftsmanship is not rusty, the blasting method is similar, Yang Xiao uses the eyelet blasting method, which is a relatively basic method, but it is really because the only material he can use is black powder, there is no way.
What's more, the hole blasting method is the most suitable for blasting the wall in the passage, according to the blasting method at the beginning, the gunpowder can only be used two or three times, and now it is blasted like Yang Xiao, the loss of gunpowder is greatly reduced, and it can be blasted four or five times.
At that moment, he no longer hesitated, picked up the spear and continued to drill two deep holes in the wall according to the previous method, and then filled the gunpowder into it, after this blasting, Yang Xiao blasted four times in four places on the wall, and after a blast, it was connected into a large area, and a large pit was blown out in the middle of the stone wall of this passage.
Then Yang Xiao used the tip of the spear in the middle of the big pit to keep turning in circles, drilled the holes, stuffed the gunpowder of the pivot into it, and then used the tip of the spear to plug it tightly, and then pulled the remaining gunpowder out of the lead.
After this detonation, with a loud bang, the smoke and dust scattered, and the rubble flew∏ and the crater was suddenly blown out of a new opening, revealing a hole the size of a basin.
Yang Xiao was immediately overjoyed, he had been able to pass through such a hole by using the bone shrinking technique, but Xiao Zhao still needed to take a lot of effort to pass through this hole.
But at this time, since this wall has been blown through, then everything is not a problem, Yang Xiao picked up the spear, he was busy drilling forward at the fracture of the explosion, and the gravel fell sparsely, but in a moment's effort, this crack was more than doubled.
It was more than enough for the two of them to pass here, Yang Xiao threw the spear, turned around and looked at Xiao Zhao with a smile: "I'm afraid we have to drill a hole today." ”
He climbed in first with a torch in his hand, and then beckoned Xiao Zhao to come in, next to this road is a weapon room in Mingjiao, scattered some weapons everywhere, at this time Yang Xiao has a clear idea of where the two of them are, and he is also determined.
was finally able to go out, and this time was also the most gripping time that Yang Xiao had encountered in recent years, and it was a bit of a fluke to be able to get out.
However, Yang Xiao didn't want to go out in a hurry like this, since he came here again, then some things could be done by the way!
