Setting off firecrackers during the Chinese New Year was a basic practice for children in previous lives.
Ever since I was a child, the sound of firecrackers has always accompanied me during the Chinese New Year.
The New Year would not be complete without a few firecrackers, and I always feel like something is missing.
This year is the first New Year that Li Qinzai has celebrated in the Tang Dynasty. He does not understand the ancient customs and customs, but Li Qinzai still wants to add a sense of ritual to the New Year of the Tang Dynasty.
How can we call it Chinese New Year if there is no sound?
As for Datang's explosive rod, this one doesn't work. It sounds like a muffled fart with unfinished meaning, and the movement is too small.
After the gunpowder was prepared, Li Qinzai ordered someone to get some hemp paper and wet mud, and then made some leads. He rolled up the gunpowder paper, stretched out the lead from the front, and blocked the bottom with yellow mud.
A perfect firecracker is done.
After painstakingly making dozens of them, Li Qinzai and Qiao'er came to the gate of the other courtyard with the newly made firecrackers under Qiao'er's eager urging.
Outside the gate, Li Sujie and other dandy boys stared at their entourage, loading their luggage into the carriage.
Seeing that the Chinese New Year is approaching, they have also begun to pack their bags. Li Qinzai said that after the final exam this afternoon, everyone can go home for winter vacation.
The dandies were eager to return home and prepared to pack their luggage early.
Studying is studying, but this place is too remote and deserted after all. They are used to the prosperity of Chang'an, so they can't wait to learn that the holiday is coming.
Seeing Li Qinzai holding Qiao'er's hand and walking out of the gate of the other courtyard, the dandies saluted one after another.
Li Qinzai nodded and led Qiao'er to the open space outside the gate.
The firecrackers were wrapped in oil paper, and Qiao'er held a lit incense tightly in her hand.
When all the dandies saw the mysterious father and son, they couldn't help but become curious.
After looking at each other, Li Sujie approached Li Qinzai without hesitation. Seeing that Li Sujie took the lead, Li Xian and the other dudes also followed him.
After getting closer, he saw Li Qinzai squatting on the ground, warning Qiao'er with a serious face: "This thing is very dangerous, very dangerous. If you want to play with it, you must ask the uncles in the house to help you order it. You are absolutely not allowed to order it."
Otherwise your little butt will be swollen from my beating, remember?"
Qiao'er looked innocent and nodded seriously in agreement.
Li Qinzai laughed again: "Dad, I will help you light it when you are free. Just listen to the sound from a distance. It is much louder than the popping rod that Grandpa Wei lit."
Qiao'er continued to nod innocently: "Dad, you are becoming more and more verbose. Are you getting older? I heard from my aunt that the older people are, the more they talk and the more they talk..."
There were several puffs coming from behind, Li Qinzai turned his head with a cold face, Li Sujie and others looked at the sky, whispering to each other and discussing.
"It's a nice weather today."
"Yes, yes, the wind is very strong and the snow is very white."
Li Qinzai used the group glare skill, ignored them, and continued to say to Qiao'er: "Don't listen to your aunt in the future, she is stupid, don't get infected."
Qiao'er nodded in understanding.
Open the oil paper bag, take out a firecracker and stick it on the ground.
He took the incense in Qiao'er's hand and waved his hand to Qiao'er to stay away. Seeing all the dudes looking at him curiously, Li Qinzai smiled evilly and without warning, he put the lit incense close to the firecracker fuse.
With a scoff, the fuse was lit, and Li Qinzai turned around and ran away. The ignorant and fearless dandies remained motionless.
boom!
A loud noise echoed over the empty Zhuangzi for a long time.
People outside the gate of the courtyard jumped on their backs, and the dandies were really frightened. Li Sujie and Li Xian ran away with their heads in their hands. The younger ones such as Shangguan Kun'er stood there and cried loudly, and Qiao'er looked excited and jumped for joy.
Inside the gate of the villa, Liu Asi and others heard a loud noise, their expressions suddenly changed, and they rushed out without hesitation, while the horizontal swords at their waists were unsheathed.
After rushing out, he found Li Qinzai and Qiao'er at first sight. Without saying a word, he surrounded Li Qinzai and looked around with a vigilant face, looking for traces of the enemy.
Farmers nearby also heard the loud noise and came out to watch in fear. Some farmers picked up farm tools and ran towards other courtyards.:.
Li Qinzai was a little surprised when he saw the chaos in front of him.
I didn't expect the movement to be so loud. It seemed... a bit high-profile?
Turning around and looking around, Li Sujie and Li Xian looked at the smoke rising up after the firecrackers exploded with horror on their faces. Qi Bizhen's face turned pale, but she still gritted her teeth and tried to calm herself down, but her trembling legs completely betrayed him.
Shangguan Kun'er was still grinning and crying, and the other dandies were trembling and hugging each other for warmth...
Liu Asi and Bu Qu looked solemn and were still looking for the enemy. Farmers who came from afar carried farm tools and shouted loudly: "Where did Datang go to war with?"
Only Qiao'er was very excited. Li Qinzai had told him a long time ago that the sound of firecrackers was quite loud. Qiao'er might have been mentally prepared for it and was not scared at all at the moment.
Li Qinzai's face was stunned, as if he had gone too far...
"Ahem, don't panic, everyone, it's okay, the soul will come back." Li Qinzai pressed down his hands to signal everyone to calm down.
"Dad, it's so fun! One more!" Qiao'er shouted excitedly.
Li Sujie stepped forward in shock, stared at the smoke that had dissipated, and said in horror: "May I ask, sir, that loud noise just now..."
Li Qinzai nodded: "I did it, it's just a firecracker, don't make a fuss."
Li Sujie still didn't come back to his senses: "What thing in the world can make such a loud noise? It's like, it's like thunder in the clear sky."
As he spoke, Li Sujie bowed his head and said, "Sir, can you show me this object?"
Li Qinzai took out a firecracker from the oil paper bag and handed it to him.
Li Sujie took it with both hands and looked at it carefully.
The other dandies, who had probably overcome their fright, came over to take a look. Some of them didn't even wipe the tears from their faces.
Only Shangguan Kuner was still crying.
Li Qinzai became a little impatient and said to Qiao'er: "Go and persuade your uncle, man, don't be pretentious. Cry twice and it will make sense. Don't go on forever."
As expected, Qiao'er was obedient and stepped forward to pat Shangguan Kun'er on the shoulder: "Brother, please stop crying and stop being pretentious."
Shangguan Kun'er sobbed and said: "Who, who... is my uncle?"
"You."
"I, I'm not an uncle."
"Sooner or later." Qiao'er smacked her lips in disgust: "You don't even care about the title. You are really pretentious."
None of the dandies paid any attention to the two children, and they were all observing the firecrackers carefully.
Li Sujie stared at the negative thread of the firecracker and said, "Sir, did you just light this negative thread with incense to make it make a loud noise?"
"That's right."
Li Sujie hesitated and said: "Disciple, if you are brave, can you please ask sir..."
Li Qinzai said with a smile: "Do you still want to hear the sound?"
Li Sujie and the other dandies nodded.
"Aren't you afraid anymore?"
The dandies hesitated for a moment, then shook their heads firmly.
Li Qinzai said with a smile: "People celebrating the New Year, I can't let you down. I'm watching so hard. If you're afraid, cover your ears."
The dandies were very obedient and rushed out all the way. Their expressions were still a little apprehensive, but there was also a bit of excitement in the apprehension.
Liu Asi and Buqu also knew what was going on at this time. It seemed that Fifth Young Master had come up with something new, so they wisely stepped away.
The firecrackers were inserted into the ground, lit, turned around, and scurried away, all in one movement.
boom!
There was another loud noise, and this time the dandies were no longer afraid, and all cheered excitedly.
The farmers on Zhuangzi also gathered around and looked curiously at the wisp of green smoke rising from the ground.
Li Qinzai's mood became happy unconsciously. The more people watching, the happier he was when he set off the firecrackers.
A person who has lived two lifetimes still has a crazy physique. Although Li Qinzai was happy, he couldn't help but feel a little self-loathing towards himself.
"I want to regain my former innocence and my feelings." Li Qinzai had no choice but to keep hypnotizing himself.
Different from the excitement of the dandies, Li Sujie's face was solemn, but his eyes were staring at the small pit left by the explosion of the firecrackers on the ground. The soil in the pit was still emitting traces of gunpowder smoke.
It didn't matter that the pit was smoking. What Li Sujie noticed was the appearance of the soil after it was exploded.
After a long time, Li Sujie suddenly said: "Sir, can this thing... hurt people?"
Li Qinzai rolled his eyes: "Nonsense, if you can't hurt anyone, will I ask Qiao'er to stay away?"
All the dandies fell silent.
Li Xian couldn't help but whispered: "But...why didn't Mr. just tell us to stay away?"
Li Qinzai's old face couldn't help but blush.
This... is a bit hurtful to explain, but in layman's terms, it can be explained clearly in one sentence.
