"Hehe, Brother Yi is still the most particular one. It's been some years since I've had this Monkey Wine, and even the wine's base is fine …"
Smelling the scent of the monkey wine that he had not tasted for a long time, Three Cannon's eyes suddenly lit up, snatched the wine gourd from him, opened up the shoddy wine he bought and poured it into the gourd. After finishing, he shook it a few times and then took a sip from the wine cup, however, Three Cannon knew that the strength of the wine was too strong and didn't dare to drink too much.
"Dammit, Three Cannons, are you sick or what? Do you want us to drink your saliva?"
He had originally planned to go to the reservoir at the foot of the mountain to fry some fish, but he did not expect that the police station in the town would set up a police station at the edge of the reservoir. All day long, there was a police officer in uniform there with two members of the defense team.
"I have forgotten about this..."
Hearing San Niu talking about the presence of a police station by the reservoir, Fatty was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Recently, the water used for the reconstruction of the new city was brought over by our reservoir. In order to prevent people from destroying it, a police station was built …"
The Wei Jia Village's reservoir was surrounded on three sides by the mountain and took up a large area. It had always been used as Jinling City's reserve reservoir. After the new city was renovated, the reservoir that had been built for over 30 years was naturally activated.
As the saying goes, they rely on the mountains to eat the water. In the past, besides going up the mountain to pick some mountain goods, the people of the Wei family village often went to the reservoir to fish. However, the reservoir no longer allowed them to go down.
"Since that's the case, let's just forget about it. There's no harm in eating less..." When Fang Yi heard that someone was guarding the reservoir, he immediately said, "Aren't we going down the mountain right now? I'll treat you guys when we earn money from work …"
"How can that be? Of course it's my treat …" San Niu felt that he had lost face in front of these two little guys. His face was red as he hatefully said: "If we don't work early, we won't fight. We have to wait for Laozi to come before we set a warning …"
"Actually, it's not like we can't explode …"
Fatty touched his chin, that seemingly simple and honest face revealed a cunning smile, and said, "Today is Saturday, those police and joint defense teams must have all gone home. Let's go throw two cannons, fish and run, there should be no problem …"
"Fatty, are you sure they went back?"
They were all children who had grown up in the countryside. Although they had been soldiers for a few years outside, they did not have a strong sense of law, and they had exploded a lot since they were young. As long as they did not catch the police, which family did they capture?
"They must have gone back. Do you think those guys are still guarding the mountain at the end of the week?"
He knew that the police were from the town, but those two teams were from the village. When he brought Fang Yi back just now, he saw one of them carrying a wine bottle home.
"Alright, let's do it then..." Three Cannon said excitedly.
"Kid, your ability can only last for one shot. I think you are just called Three Cannon, hahaha …" The fatty laughed maliciously.
"What does his calling 'Three Cannon' have to do with 'One Cannon'?" Fang Yi asked in confusion.
"Ignore the fatty, he's playing a hooligan …"
The three cannons understood the fatty's words and said snappily: "So what if it's three cannons. After all, when the brothers go to the city, they won't have the chance to come back to fry fish. But I only made two of those things, so I still need to make one more …"
"Isn't that easy? Your family has a lot of explosives, so you should make another one …" The fatty chuckled and didn't explain to Fang Yi the difference between firing three cannons and firing three cannons.
"How ridiculous..." Seeing the two of them laughing so insolently, Fang Yi knew that it wasn't any good news. He immediately said snappily, "Are you going to do that? "Then hurry up and do it. I've only heard that I haven't seen it before …"
Fang Yi had grown up on the mountain. Although he had read a few books related to the law, compared to Fatty and Three Cannon, he was even more legal. He had no idea that doing things on his own was against the law at all.
"Then I'll let you have a look. Oh yeah, we're not going to call this a bomb, we're going to call it an earth cannon war …" Three Cannon said, "You two eat first, I'll go prepare something …"
"Hurry up, brat. Let's save some belly for some fish …" Fang Yi and the fatty also felt hungry when they heard Three Cannon's words, and they immediately picked up their chopsticks to start eating.
"I'm also missing a bottle. All the leftover beer bottles at home have been switched over to the canteen …" A few minutes later, San Niu came out with a plastic bag. He looked around, picked up the bottle of bad wine on the table, and walked into the yard. He poured out all the wine inside.
"Actually, it's very easy to make it..."
When Fang Yi's eyes stared unblinkingly at him, Three Cannon who had returned to the room laughed complacently and said, "If I had an alarm clock, I would even be able to complete the scheduled artillery campaign. This brother hasn't been in the army for free these past few years …"
What's more, he had been involved with gunpowder since he was young, so he had an abnormal obsession with bombs. When the army had a mission to open a hole in the mountain, the explosives on the cannons of the three gunners had never happened before.
Therefore, if it weren't for San Niu's insistence on retiring, the head of his unit would have already turned him into a technical officer, and San Niu relied on this ability to play with explosives.
"Stop bragging, just concoct the item quickly. It's not too late yet. If we bomb in the middle of the night, someone might discover us..."
Fatty grabbed a peanut and threw it at them in annoyance. He was not used to being kicked out of the army by the commissar since he was the one who asked to be discharged from the army. This was quite a blow to him.
"Isn't it good to make this thing?" San Niu pursed his lips, taking the bowl in front of him to the side, and placed the plastic bag and bottle of wine on the table.
He looked around and found an oily spatula from a cupboard in the room and inserted it into the mouth of the bottle. Then he grabbed a handful of black powder that smelled like sulphur from the plastic bag and poured it into the bottle through the spatula.
The three cannons were familiar with the habits of gunpowder, but when Fang Yi and Fatty talked about it, there were some ignorant people who were fearless. They did not know that the three cannons were used to blast rocks.
When about a third of the bottle was filled with gunpowder, the three cannons took out from their pockets an object the size of a pinky. There was a layer of yellow paper wrapped around it, and half of it was solid and the other half hollow.
He took out a pair of scissors and cut a piece of rope about thirty centimeters thick as a thumb. Then, he stuffed one end of the rope into the hollow of the yellow tube.
"That pipe is an '* *, and the rope is the fuse. This fuse won't go out when it meets water, and it won't burn too fast either …" Seeing that Fang Yi was confused, Fatty took care to explain to him how many people in the Wei Village had never gone to the Wei Village to fry fish before? Fatty, the Village Head and his father had done this many times.
"Hehe, fatty, didn't you buy your family's gunpowder from us?"
Hearing the fatty's words, San Niu chuckled, but his hand movements were not slow at all. After he stuffed the remaining gunpowder into the bottle, he quickly found three chopsticks and pressed a bit of the gunpowder.
After doing all of this, the three cannons filled up some more water and ran into the courtyard to make a lump of mud. They sealed the bottle with mud, leaving only a ten-centimeter long fuse.
"This thing is quite powerful, right?" Fang Yi felt a faint sense of danger as he looked at the bottle in the three cannons' hands.
"Of course it's powerful. The explosives used to open the mountain aren't even half as powerful …" San Niu nodded his head proudly and said: "Our fish explosion is different from opening the mountain. These explosives only killed the fish or knocked it out, so we have to install more."
"It's done. Let's go now..." In the past few years, the management of the reservoir had been quite strict, and there were fewer and fewer incidents of frying fish. Fatty had not done this for quite some time, so he had become very active.
"You don't want any more?" Three Cannons didn't really matter. He reached out and picked up a green satchel behind the door. Inside it were two Earth Cannons that had been prepared.
"I was half full just now..." Fang Yi was also a bit excited. Ever since he was young, he had heard from the two how much fun it was to blow up fish. He also wanted to see what kind of game this was.
"That's good. The villagers are still awake. There shouldn't be too much noise..." San Niu looked at the clock on the wall. It was just after seven. At this time, everyone in the village was either watching TV or drinking and playing cards. No one would notice the one at the reservoir.
Fatty's attitude was very sincere!
