Chastity Layman 2

Chapter 249 Exploding Pole and Shocking Thunder
At the end of the palace banquet, Li Shimin was too drunk to walk, he insisted on Qin Lang helping him back.The Supreme Emperor Li Yuan had officially moved out of Taiji Palace a few days ago, and moved to Hongyi Palace where Li Shimin used to live.

I didn't even have time to decorate it, so I hurried in.

Li Shimin lived in his father's palace, living in Liangyi Hall, and felt that he was really the emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Crown Prince Chengqian finally became the Lord of the East Palace.

In the Hall of Liangyi, the Empress Changsun looked at the prince Chengqian leading the way, and Qin Lang came in with the emperor behind his back, and was startled.

"His Majesty was happy for a while, and drank two more glasses, and he was a little overwhelmed."

Li Shimin shook his head, "I'm not drunk, I can still drink, come again!"

Empress Changsun was helpless.

The emperor fell asleep on the couch and fell asleep.

"His Majesty hasn't been this happy and relaxed for a long time, and it's been a long time since he slept so deeply."

"Your Majesty is too busy with state affairs, you have to know how to combine work with rest and take a proper rest, otherwise you will be exhausted, and you will regret it later." Qin Lang persuaded.

After Qin Lang finished speaking, he wanted to leave, but Li Zhi came in wiping her tears.

"Brother Sanlang help me!"

"what happened?"

"They bullied me!"

Li Lizhi pointed to Li You and other brothers in the corridor, and after asking, she found out that these little guys were playing with explosive poles just now, and they even gambled money. This guy was led by Li You .

Li Lizhi lost the money, so she burst into tears.

"It's just a few dollars."

"That's the lucky money I got last night." Li Lizhi cried.

Empress Changsun asked Li You to return the money to Lizhi, but Li You refused, and said that she was willing to gamble and lose. The queen is not good at favoring her daughter, so she can only persuade Lizhi.

But because this money is Li Lizhi's new year's money, it is not ordinary. This is not an ordinary Kaiyuan Tongbao, but a batch of new year's money specially minted by the money casting supervisor. Words, this is Li Lizhi's exclusive new year's money.

"Brother Sanlang, I don't want him to pay me back, you win me."

"You must burn a louder explosion rod!"

On the other side, Li You said proudly, "I'm not afraid when the bachelor comes, my explosive pole is unmatched by anyone."

The little fat guy over there also lost just now, so he said unconvinced, "He cheated, he added something to his explosive pole, I found out."

Just now, the brothers and sisters were instigated by Li You to gamble money, and then they showed their power and won all the brothers and sisters. Li Ke and the others only thought that they were unlucky. Who knew that Li Tai observed carefully and found the problem.

Li Tai didn't say anything, and directly grabbed a blasting pole from Li You and gave it to Qin Lang.

"Bachelor, look!"

Qin Lang observed carefully and found that his explosive pole had long arms, and the bamboo joint in the middle had actually been opened, only one end was not open, and the other end was stuffed with a cloth strip.

Open it and a white powder comes out.

Smell it, it's nitrate.

This Li You is really a genius. He actually knows how to change the natural firecrackers into salted firecrackers.

"You cheated!"

Brothers Li Tai and Li Ke accused Li You unconvinced, but Li You was able to say triumphantly, "What did I do wrong, didn't I explode the pole? If you have the ability, you can also make such an explosive pole?" "

Now Li Tai was so angry that he was about to die, but there was nothing he could do.

They didn't even recognize the added nitrate inside, so naturally they couldn't imitate the modification.

Qin Lang looked at Li Lizhi who was wiping away tears, hehe smiled, and comforted her, "Princess, don't worry, I will be stronger than King Qi right away, and I will definitely win him in a while!"

Li You was still proud, "Impossible, no one can beat me."

"Isn't this just adding nitrate?"

Seeing that Qin Lang recognized what he had added, Li You panicked.

"how do you know?"

"What's so difficult about it?"

Qin Lang asked Lizhi to give him the rest of the explosive pole.

Li You refused to do it.

"You can't imitate me, I spent ten thousand dollars to buy this secret explosion pole."

"Where did you buy it?"

"One of my servants bought it for me outside."

"King Qi, you've been fooled. It's like this, ten cents a stick is expensive, but you spend ten thousand."

"Impossible, you bragging!"

Qin Lang smiled.

He directly found a knife and cut off a section of the explosive pole, "Do you believe that, with only this section, I can defeat your secret explosive pole!"

"Impossible, how can one quarter beat me by many quarters!"

"I beat you by many knots in one quarter."

"impossible."

"bet?"

"Betting is betting."

"Just bet on the New Year's money you won from everyone just now. If I win, you will hand it all over."

"Then you lost?"

"I lost, give King Qi [-] yuan!"

"it is good!"

Li You shouted excitedly, "Let's start now, start the fire!"

"Don't worry, I still need to add some ingredients."

Li You's explosive pole was made with nitrate, and after burning it on the fire, it could indeed make the bamboo pole explode louder, but Qin Lang had gunpowder to explode the pole.

In the palace there is the Bureau of Shangyao and the Bureau of Shangshi, all of which have medicines in charge, and nitrate and sulfur are medicinal materials, so it is easy to get some, but Qin Lang deliberately ordered several more medicinal materials in order to deceive people.

Anyway, it's just a big firecracker, and it doesn't matter if you add a little bit of other materials.

He took some leftover bamboo charcoal directly from the fire.

Qin Lang took the ingredients and ground them into powder, and mixed them according to the approximate ratio. In fact, Qin Lang only knew that black gunpowder was made of nitrate, charcoal, and sulfur, but he didn't know the exact ratio. He vaguely remembered it from a junior high school textbook. It said more nitrate and less charcoal.

So he prepared a mixture of charcoal, disulfide and seven nitrates, and then mixed some medicinal powders such as pepper powder, cumin powder, licorice powder, etc., and finally put a spoonful into the bamboo joint, which still had a lot of space. Then I stuffed some paper, and finally blocked the opening. There was no suitable fuse, so I twisted a lead wire with paper. In short, I tried to make do with it.

When this explosive pole was presented in front of everyone, Li You had a look of disbelief.

Already eager to accept Qin Lang's one hundred thousand dollars.

"Who will come first?" Qin Lang asked with a smile.

Li You said, "I'll come first."

He put the modified nitrate blasting rod on the fire and roasted it. After a while, the blasting rod was already burning, and the surface was sweating.

Chengqian and the others hurriedly backed away, and the next moment, the explosive pole exploded with a bang.

It was quite loud, but only a little louder than ordinary bamboo poles.

"it's your turn!"

Li You was triumphant.

Qin Lang stepped forward holding the short piece of gunpowder and firecracker, "You all disperse."

Cheng Qian stepped back a little.

Li Tai didn't retreat, he saw Qin Lang added a lot of materials in it just now, so he wanted to see how powerful this thing is.

Qin Lang originally wanted to stick the firecrackers on the ground to ignite, but the paper fuses didn't work after a few ignitions, and the wind blew them out after a while.

"Is it okay?" Li You mocked.

Qin Lang was helpless, "How about I throw it into the fire too?"

"Then just throw it away." Li You urged.

Qin Lang looked at the pile of fire, and then at the brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law next to him, "It will be very loud, very loud, and may even blow up the charcoal fire. You should move away, at least twenty steps away!"

"Is it that exaggerated? Don't dawdle!"

Li You urged.

Qin Lang insisted that they retreat twenty steps, and in the end they reluctantly retreated.

Qin Lang saw that everyone retreated, so he threw the gunpowder and firecrackers into the fire, and quickly retreated.

"Everyone cover your ears!"

Li You showed disdain.

Qin Lang walked to Changle's side, and stretched out his hand to cover her.

Gunpowder and firecrackers were thrown into the fire, but there was no sound.

Li You taunted, "Why are you so silent, dumb!"

As he said that, he still wanted to go forward.

Qin Lang hurriedly shouted, "Don't go there!" Although he didn't know if he failed, it's better to stay away from this thing.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was only a thunder on the ground, and the rumble was like a thunder, and then the pile of firewood was blown up and flew around.

Li You originally wanted to go and have a look, but unexpectedly there was a ringing sound just two steps away, and he was so shocked that he sat on the ground directly, his face turned pale.

The flying charcoal fire fell from the sky and scattered around, forming patches of black charcoal on the white snow, which was very obvious.

Wei Wang Li Tai also sat on the ground, staring blankly at the scene, unable to utter a sound for a long time.

Li Shimin rushed over with bare feet, disheveled and holding a sword.

"Boldly rebelling against the thief, how dare you break into the palace and assassinate!"

Empress Changsun and a group of court ladies also rushed over.

Further away, the imperial guards on duty at the palace gate came rushing.

The loud noise, like thunder, blasted them all out.

Princess Changle came back to her senses, and hurriedly shouted to the red-eyed Li Shimin, "Father, it's Saburo, Saburo..."

Li Shimin didn't seem to have woken up yet, and he was drunk again. His eyes widened, and he rushed towards Qin Lang with a sword in his hand, "Rebel, take your life!"

"Father, it is Saburo who is burning the pole!"

·······
Li Shimin's footsteps slowly slowed down, "Exploding the pole?"

The prince also hurried forward to stop his father.

"Father, it was Saburo who fired the explosive pole just now."

"Nonsense, why can the explosive pole make such a noise?"

Everyone rushed over, and Empress Changsun put on a coat for Li Shimin.

·······
Half an hour later, Qin Lang handed over the newly prepared ten explosive poles to the Qianniu guards.

Li Shimin was drunk, he was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, and his eyes were piercing.

In front of the hall, a fire was burning.

Qianniu bodyguard Chai Lingwu approached with a blasting pole.

"If you throw it away, get back quickly and keep your distance." Qin Lang shouted to Chai Lingwu beside the emperor.

Chai Lingwu walked to the fire, picked up the explosive rod and threw it into the fire, but did not retreat immediately.

"Back, fast back."

Qin Lang shouted.

Chai Lingwu took two steps back, only five or six steps away from the fire, Qin Lang was still shouting, but he turned a deaf ear.

There was a loud bang, and the firecrackers exploded.

Without extra ingredients, this time the explosion is even louder.

Firewood fried all over the sky.

After the sound of pleasant surprise, Chai Lingwu stood there in a panic. His Wubian cap was blown off, his hair was messed up, his face was blackened, and Qianniuwei's robe was burned with charcoal fire. .

Li Shimin stood up abruptly.

He trembled with excitement.

"Tianlei, Tianlei, this...this..." The emperor was so excited that he couldn't speak.
