Xue Huaiyi never mistreated his own people. Although Ma Qiao's grandmother and uncle didn't like him in the White Horse Temple, he still received quite a lot of pocket money. He immediately stopped Lu Mo and said with a rich and overbearing manner, "Come, unload three bundles of explosive sticks for me."
Lu Mo smiled and said, "Dear customer, if you want to buy explosive poles, this old man will naturally welcome you. But this old man has to say something first. My family's explosive poles are more expensive than others, because my family's explosive poles … "
Before he could finish explaining the wonders of his family's explosive poles, Maqiao said carelessly, "Isn't explosive poles just explosive poles? How expensive can it be! Bring it down, bring it down. You can count how much you should charge! " Maqiao took out a money bag from his pocket and generously stuffed it into Lu Mo's hand. Then, he went to the car to bring the explosive poles.
Lan Yiqing saw him like that and couldn't help but feel angry. He pulled Xie Xiaoman who was about to leave and shouted, "Sisters, let's buy some explosive poles too. Today is the Lantern Festival, let's burn some explosive poles to celebrate. At the same time, let's wish that we will win tomorrow's Cuju competition!"
All the girls responded. Xie Xiaoman wanted to stop them, but then she thought that it was to celebrate the festival. It was rare for her sisters to go out of the palace, so there was no need to spoil their mood. So, she smiled and didn't say anything.
Maqiao carried three bundles of explosive poles and threw them on the ground. He turned his head and saw a family with a brazier burning in front of their door. The family's explosive poles had been burned out, but the brazier was still burning. Maqiao walked over to the owner and said, "Brother, can I borrow the brazier for a while?"
The owner of the house smiled and nodded. Maqiao used two poles to prop up the brazier and placed it on the street. Then, he placed the bundle of explosive poles on it.
These explosive rods were filled with saltpeter and had already become flammable and explosive. However, no one had ever suffered from this kind of new product, so how could they have the awareness to guard against it? Even Lu Mo, who knew how explosive his rod was, didn't take it too seriously. Before this, very few people would let go of his rod on the spot. Sometimes, they would at most try one.
What's more, Lu Mo was happily counting the money in his hands. When he realized that Maqiao had piled all the sticks on the brazier, he faintly felt something was wrong. Just as he was about to stop him, the sticks had already exploded.
"Bang! Pa! Crack! Boom! "
Sparks flew everywhere and thick smoke billowed. Maqiao's action was originally to anger those girls. Who would have thought that these explosive rods had such power? He was so scared that he screamed and jumped away. The other bundle of explosive rods in his hands also fell down and pressed on top of the burning explosive rods.
Lan Yiqing and Gao Ying stood on the shaft of the carriage and just picked up the two bundles of explosive rods when the explosive rods on the brazier exploded. That loud noise and the eruption of flames scared the two girls so much that they let go of the explosive rods and hurriedly jumped to the side. As the two of them jumped and dodged, the mountain-like pile of explosive rods on the carriage shook twice and poured down with a crash, burying the brazier underneath.
"Boom!"
At that time, people didn't have a concept of safety, and the craftsmen who made the explosive rods weren't very careful either. The surface of the explosive rods was stained with a lot of saltpeter powder. When it rolled down, many of the explosive rods cracked, and the saltpeter powder seeped out. Once it came into contact with the fire, it immediately made a muffled explosion. Then, a ball of flame accompanied by thick smoke rose into the sky.
A huge mushroom cloud soared into the sky, and a loud and muffled explosion shook the ground of Ding Ding Street. Following that, continuous explosions rang out like drumbeats amidst the flashes of light.
Everyone was dumbfounded. They had never seen such a powerful explosive rod, and they had never heard such concentrated explosions. There were flashes of light and frequent explosions. In just a moment, thick smoke filled a large part of the street. At this moment, someone finally woke up and shouted, "Run!" Then, he covered his head with his sleeves and ran away like a rat.
The workers who pulled the carriages were also scared out of their wits. They all abandoned the carriages and ran away. Sparks from the explosions flew everywhere, and soon, the second and third carriages were ignited. The sound of explosions, fire, and smoke interweaved into one, and the street was filled with people running away like wolves.
Yang Fan was dumbfounded and said, "I … F * ck! You can cause trouble just by lighting a firecracker! "
Maqiao said in a panic, "This … this … how did it become like this? I've been lighting firecrackers since I was young, and I've never seen a f * cking firecracker like this! "
"Ah ah ah! God damn it! Don't go! You compensate me for my explosive rod, and you compensate me for my carriage! Where's the money you compensate me … "
Lu Mo came out of the billowing smoke. The moment he saw Maqiao, he immediately spread out his ten fingers and pounced at Maqiao like a malicious spirit coming out of the smoke. Maqiao was shocked. He reached out and grabbed Jiang Xuning's little hand, shouting, "Run!" Then, he ran away.
"Not good!"
The burning speed of the explosive rod was actually far slower than the firecrackers that came later. The problem was that no one had ever seen such a fast-burning explosive rod and such a powerful explosive rod, so they didn't think of dodging it at first. When they realized that the explosive rod was quite lethal, it was already a little too late to avoid it, and this caused a big mess.
A pair of little girls in flowery jackets and cotton pants couldn't avoid it in time and fell to the ground. In the running crowd, only two small braids and a pair of small arms and legs could be seen. Yang Fan's eyes were sharp, and he couldn't help but be shocked when he saw this situation. He was afraid that the flames from the explosive rod would burn them, and he was even more afraid that they would be trampled by the running crowd. So, he leaped up and flew over. At this time, the smoke was lingering, and it was already difficult to see anything. He used the memory of the glimpse he had just now to fly to the place where they fell.
Almost at the same time, there was another figure beside Yang Fan. Yang Fan reached out and picked up a girl and put her under his ribs. Just as he was about to reach out to grab the other girl, the figure almost repeated his action, picked up a girl, and reached out to grab him.
The two's palms touched slightly, and they were both shocked at the same time. Yang Fan suddenly looked up and saw a flash of fire in the smoke, suddenly illuminating the other's face. It was Xie Xiaoman.
"Boom!"
The firecrackers on a car made a loud noise. The two of them simultaneously flicked their sleeves, brushing away the flying sparks and choking smoke, and said in unison, "Go!" Then they flew back.
…
"You troublemaker, can't you be a little more obedient for once!"
Jiang Xuning was pulled by Maqiao all the way, and the more he thought about it, the more he found it funny.
Maqiao was full of grievances, and as he ran, he shouted, "I swear to God! Do you think I want to cause trouble? I just want to annoy those girls, and fight for my brother's face. How would I know that a bundle of firecrackers would make such a big noise! Have you ever seen firecrackers that catch fire so easily, burn so loudly, and so brittle? It's really f * cking evil! "
Maqiao complained as he ran, and suddenly stopped running, and exclaimed, "Oh no!"
Maqiao suddenly remembered that he only cared about pulling Jiang Xuning to escape, and did not care about Yang Fan, and wondered how he was doing. Of course, Maqiao knew that Yang Fan was a martial artist, and his movements were agile, so it was unlikely that he would be injured by the firecrackers. However, what if he was caught by the shopkeeper and asked for compensation?
Although the firecrackers were cheap, the price of the big cars was also not cheap, and the car was also burnt.
With this thought, Maqiao immediately stopped and turned back, and hurriedly said, "No …"
As soon as the word "No" left his mouth, Jiang Xuning, who could not stop in time, bumped into him. She threw herself into his arms, and her lips were pressed against his. Maqiao first felt pain on his lips, thinking that he must have hit it hard. Then, he felt a pair of soft and thin lips pressing against his own, and for a moment, his whole body froze.
He was not a virgin, but Jiang Xuning … She was his childhood playmate. He did not know if he treated her as a sister, or as a brother. In short, it seemed like he had more family ties, and he had never treated Jiang Xuning as a woman. But now, her lips were pressed against his.
When they hit, his lips touched his teeth, and there was a slight pain. There was a slight fishy taste in his mouth, and Maqiao's brain did not have time to process whether his lips were broken, but at this moment, there was only a soft and smooth feeling on his lips, and there seemed to be … a little sweet?
Maqiao subconsciously stuck out his tongue and licked his lips …
"Ah!"
Jiang Xuning suddenly came to her senses and pushed him away. Her chest rose and fell rapidly, and her face was red. If the first contact was a misunderstanding caused by her unsteady footing, but the next moment, he actually licked her lips … Jiang Xuning began to tremble like a pendulum.
"It really is sweet."
Maqiao savored it for a moment, and his misty eyes suddenly fixed on Jiang Xuning's face. His eyes suddenly widened, "Me! Just kissed her? "
"He! Just kissed me? "
"Ah!"
The two of them cried out at the same time, turned around, and ran into the crowd, disappearing without a trace.
"Bang! Pa … "
The sound of exploding poles continued to rise and fall, and the several carts of exploding poles were not easy to burn down. The billowing smoke was like a black dragon, rising from the carts and permeating the whole street. Everywhere was filled with smoke, and many people were choking and coughing and crying.
The parents of the girls thanked them profusely and led their daughter away. Seeing that the scene was in chaos, Xie Xiaoman and the others were also about to leave. Just as they were about to leave, Xie Xiaoman turned around and gave Yang Fan a deep look. She did not speak, but just raised her thumb.
Yang Fan could see that this girl had some admiration for his behavior and his playing skills. However, her eyes were full of stubbornness and confidence. She raised her thumb, which was not only a silent praise, but also a challenge. This girl refused to admit defeat!
Yang Fan grinned.
At this time, Princess Flatboard was in trouble.
