Fire trees and silver flowers.
It is the oldest kind of fireworks, also called iron fireworks. To put it bluntly, it means melting iron into molten iron, scooping it up with a willow wooden spoon, and then hitting the wooden spoon with a wooden stick. The scene is like a night of fireworks. But this actually places extremely high demands on performers, and not everyone can do it. Because for a real blacksmith, even if he goes into battle naked, the falling sparks will not hurt himself, nor will they hurt the onlookers.
"Brother Xiao, you are so knowledgeable!" Wei Wucan rarely called Xiao Chunqiu "Brother Xiao", and he couldn't help but admire him from the bottom of his heart.
The two of them stopped talking and walked toward the performance venue of Fireworks and Silver Flowers. When they arrived, they found that Murong Qiuxue had been here a long time ago, and the place was already crowded with people. Wei Wucan could only take him with him. The two of them squeezed their way from the back of the crowd to the front.
Then he looked at the field expectantly.
Just look, there is a double-layered wooden frame about three feet high in the field. The wooden frame is covered with fresh willow branches. At first glance, it really looks like a big leafy tree.
At this time, a naked man came out with a ladle of hot molten iron, walked to the bottom of the wooden frame, and used the wooden stick in his right hand to hit the molten iron in the willow ladle in his left hand. It was scattered and flew high into the sky. When it fell, it was like the fiery trees and silver flowers.
"So beautiful!" Murong Qiuxue looked obsessed.
"Yes! I have never seen such fireworks." Wei Wucan couldn't help but sigh.
And this scene did not remind Xiao Chunqiu of anything. He seemed to be missing something, but that feeling was only fleeting. Xiao Chunqiu put his hands into his sleeves and returned to his lazy look. appearance.
At this moment, a voice came from the other side, "Young master Xiao, you are so happy that you even have the leisure to come here to watch the blacksmith!"
The sound was so loud that almost everyone present heard it. The scene suddenly became quiet for a moment, and then everyone couldn't help but look in that direction.
Just look, at some point, dozens of men in yellow clothes with scimitars at their waists have forcibly tore a hole through the crowd on the other side and come to the front. The leader is a man wearing a gray singlet and holding a long gun. The man is looking here at the moment.
"That person is..." Wei Wucan pointed at the leader. He seemed to have seen him somewhere, but he couldn't remember it.
But Murong Qiuxue on the side continued, "It's the person who intercepted Senior Brother last night."
That night, who among them saw it most clearly, it must be Murong Qiuxue. After all, she was paying attention to the battle over there all the time.
At this moment, when Wei Wucan heard that it was the group from last night, he immediately became vigilant. However, Xiao Chunqiu looked indifferent and his lazy look was still the same, as if he had not woken up. .
Xiao Chunqiu narrowed his eyes slightly, "Do you know me?"
Jiang Xinshui smiled and said, "Young Master Xiao was joking. I don't even know you personally. I just saw your portrait."
"Oh?" Xiao Chunqiu said suspiciously, "So, the person behind you gave it to you?"
"Why did Young Master Xiao say that?" Jiang Xinshui raised the corner of her mouth slightly.
"I have been in the palace for ten years, and almost no one has seen me. And you, a family that is not even known in the world, have the ability to inquire about things in the palace?" Xiao Chunqiu said calmly. said.
But Jiang Xinshui did not answer, and just smiled, "It is said that Mr. Xiao was driven crazy in the palace, but now I don't think he is as smart as a crazy person."
"There is a cure for all heart diseases, let alone a madness." Xiao Chunqiu also smiled, "So is your purpose to kill me, or to take me away?"
"Take you away." Jiang Xinshui slowly spit out these three words.
At this time, Wei Wucan suddenly took a step forward and stood in front of Xiao Chunqiu, "If you want to take him away, you have to ask me."
"That's right! I have to ask this lady as well." Even Murong Qiuxue, who had always been against Xiao Chunqiu, stood up.
"Oh?" Jiang Xinshui narrowed his eyes and glanced at them, "One is in red and the other is in yellow. Are you the helpers Wen Han has hired? One is named Wei Wucan and the other is Su Qianqian?"
"Um?" Wei Wucan looked surprised, "Do you know our names?"
But Jiang Xinshui didn't reply to him, and just snorted coldly, "You two young people who don't know the heights of the world, where is Wen Han? He didn't come out with you."
"Hey!" Murong Qiuxue said with an angry face, "I say that guy with the spear opposite, don't underestimate people. Even without the help of senior brother, we can still beat you to pieces."
"Elder brother?" Jiang Xinshui frowned slightly. He finally understood. It turned out that these two young men were disciples of Tianyan. No wonder Wen Han was able to find a helper so quickly.
"Okay!" Jiang Xinshui suddenly looked serious, and Wei Wucan felt an unprecedented energy from him.
And at the next moment, Jiang Xinshui moved, and the spear danced like a very fast gun flower in his hand.
"So fast!" Wei Wucan was shocked.
In an instant, the spear pierced out, but it did not stab Xiao Chunqiu and the three of them, but in another direction. In just the blink of an eye, the spear pierced several big men who were eager to step forward to rob them. Their chests were so fast that those few fell to the ground one by one without even having time to react, without breathing.
Wei Wucan's eyes widened when he looked at the big men on the ground who didn't even know how to die, "Kill...kill..."
Just hearing the words "killing people", the onlookers who had not left to watch the fun suddenly panicked. How could they be in the mood to watch the fight? It was important to escape. They turned around and ran away in fear. In just a moment , only Xiao Chunqiu, Jiang Xinshui, and those who were hiding in the crowd and waiting for the opportunity were left in the field.
At this moment, Jiang Xinshui had put away his gun and walked back to his original position, "I have cleaned up a lot of miscellaneous fish along the way, and I didn't expect that there were so many that slipped through the net. For the rest, those who want to die can be kept, and those who don't want to die can do it. Cleared."
But as soon as he finished speaking, another voice came over, "He is right. If you don't want to die here, you can clear the place."
Xiao Chunqiu and Wei Wucan turned around and looked, only to see dozens of riders coming towards them from behind, all wearing black and white robes, with long swords at their waists, faintly visible.
It exudes a Confucian spirit.
"What they are riding on..." Wei Wucan took a closer look and found that what those people were riding was not a horse, but a body that resembled a tiger. It was stronger, taller, and more powerful than a tiger. A fine object to ride on.
Xiao Chunqiu on the side recognized him at a glance, "It's the Machine Tiger."
"He's from the Mo family's organ city." Wei Wucan shouted out the name in surprise.
