What a beautiful white lotus

Ye Rongqiu's proposal is not so crazy and bold as it is incredible.Tang Changtian and Zhou Shujuan did not respond for a while after hearing this.

What they thought they would hear was a narrow-death plan. In fact, what Ye Rongqiu said was indeed an extremely dangerous plan, but they couldn't understand it.

"Liquid...explosives?" Tang Changtian spoke first.

In their thinking, liquid is often equal to water, which is used to put out fires. It is really unheard of for liquids to be used as explosives.

Zhou Shujuan asked: "How powerful is that thing?" She is also a college student studying medicine, so she has a superficial understanding of various chemicals.

"It's very powerful. Just a little bit, we can blow up the yard we are in now." Ye Rongqiu made a gesture, and what he compared was just a small bottle.Then, he added quietly, "I mean, if I can make it."

Zhou Shujuan and Tang Changtian looked at each other.They subconsciously felt that Ye Rongqiu was joking, or that he was crazy.Although they all know Ye Rongqiu's ability, Ye Rongqiu's achievements in the past few years are obvious to all.But what he said was really too unbelievable.

After several seconds, Zhou Shujuan finally said, "Then... how sure are you?"

The expression on Ye Rongqiu's face couldn't be called confident: "I don't know."

No one in the room spoke again.

"Then you just make ordinary explosives?" Tang Changtian asked, "How much can you make?"

Ye Rongqiu said: "I can make a few catties of earthen explosives. But earthen explosives are large in size and weak in explosive power. Since it is an assassination, if you use it to ambush, it will be easy to be discovered and the lethality is limited. And we only have more than half a month. It's time. But if I make liquid explosives, I actually need less material and go faster."

"Since you haven't done it before," Zhou Shujuan asked, "Are you sure what you made can explode? It's as powerful as you said?"

Ye Rongqiu hesitated for a while, then nodded vigorously.This forceful slap was not to prove his confidence, but to cover up his guilty conscience.When he made the suggestion, even he thought he was crazy.

Zhou Shujuan took a deep breath, and said with difficulty: "It's up to you to decide exactly how to do it."

"But..." Tang Changtian interrupted anxiously.He obviously didn't approve of Ye Rongqiu's attempt.

Zhou Shujuan raised her hand to stop what he was about to say: "We invite you to come and entrust this important task to you. If you really think it is better, then do it. We will do our best to meet your request. I'm sure you're also aware of what you've done to us, to all comrades, and to... the people you care about."

What Zhou Shujuan said made Ye Rongqiu's heart ache.However, no matter how difficult it was, he still had to find an exit.

"I see." Ye Rongqiu said, "I'm thinking about what to do tonight."

Zhou Shujuan nodded, stood up, and winked at Archangel Tang.Tang Changtian hesitated for a moment, sighed, and left with Zhou Shujuan.

After a sleepless night, Ye Rongqiu finally made up his mind to take this gamble.

He saw the reaction formula for making liquid explosives in the books that Gu Xiuge stole from the Americans a few years ago. At that time, he thought it was a very crazy concept. So powerful, so he wrote down the whole production process, which has been deeply imprinted in his mind.In the past two years, the arsenal has grown bigger, and the conditions have become more mature than before. He has been trying to research this liquid explosive since more than a month ago.However, he has never made a finished product. It took him a long time to study how to make nitric acid, and the power of the concentrated acid he made was amazing, corroding metal utensils, so he firmly believed in the final result Must have been pretty amazing too.That day he went to Huang Mu to prepare for the final synthesis experiment, but he heard the conversation between Huang Mu and Xu Shaofang. He put the research on hold without hesitation, and advanced to the city to help Heigou and the others with their assassination mission.

It stands to reason that this experiment has not been successful, and he should not take the risk.But he knew very well in his heart that if soil explosives were made in a regular manner, not much would be produced at all, and it would be very dangerous for their comrades to use these things to fight devils.If he can successfully produce liquid explosives and win by surprise, the success rate of assassinating Okamoto Nai will be greatly increased.He was already very familiar with the early reaction practice outside the city, and he would be able to produce the finished product in a short time.But on the other hand, even if he succeeds, he doesn't know how powerful the liquid explosives are, and he might hurt himself during the manufacturing process.

The reason why he was unwilling to use the most conservative method, and wanted to try this unknown explosive crazily was that he was eager for success, and he wanted to quickly let the black dog free himself from this dark world. Not even at all costs!

There was no time for Ye Rongqiu to hesitate and waste, when he made up his mind, he immediately started to make explosives.

The most important and hardest-to-obtain ingredient in liquid explosives is nitric acid. Fortunately, the adobe houses are all made of nitrate. Ye Rongqiu asked Tang Changtian and the others to scrape the white powder from the wall of the old adobe house, which is the product of nitrifying bacteria. , and what comes out of the pigsty is nitrate.To get nitric acid, you must first get concentrated sulfuric acid, preferably with sulfur, but Zhou Shujuan and the others couldn’t get sulfur. Ye Rongqiu asked them to get a batch of dyes containing pyrite. The ore is oxidized to iron sulfate.

The subsequent process required high-temperature calcination, dry distillation and other steps, and Ye Rongqiu couldn't do it in Zhou Shujuan's basement.Fortunately, Zhou Shujuan found him a workshop for firing porcelain. The shopkeeper there also joined the Communist Party and fully supported the cause of the Anti-Japanese War. Ye Rongqiu could go there to work every evening.

The process of making nitric acid took Ye Rongqiu nearly half a month. After half a month, he finally succeeded in refining nitric acid.On the day of success, he carefully bottled a thin layer of nitric acid and went back.

When Ye Rongqiu returned to the room, Tang Changtian and Zhou Shujuan were sitting at the table. Seeing him coming back, Zhou Shujuan greeted him, "I just finished cooking, come and have dinner."

Ye Rongqiu carefully held the bottle in his arms: "I'll come later."

Tang Changtian noticed his movements and asked, "What is that?"

Ye Rongqiu said with a mysterious smile: "I'll let you know right away. My explosives are about to be finished. Is there any place nearby for testing?"

Zhou Shujuan bit her chopsticks and made trouble.Wuchang City is a Japanese-occupied area. It is not easy to get out of the city and enter the city. There are people everywhere in the city. It is really not easy to find an open place to try the power of explosives.She asked Ye Rongqiu: "How powerful is your explosive?"

Ye Rongqiu said modestly: "According to theory, it is about ten times more powerful than ordinary explosives. If it is compared with earth explosives, it is even more difficult to say. But - it is also theoretical, I have not tried it, I made it The purity of things is not high, and it may not be that powerful."

Both Tang Changtian and Zhou Shujuan were taken aback: "Ten times?"

The two of them looked at each other, and both began to get excited.If there is such a powerful thing, the devil will definitely not be able to guard against it, let alone killing Okamoto Nai, I am afraid that the situation in the whole of southern Hubei will be improved.

Tang Changtian rubbed his hands and suggested, "Or, try going to the river."

Zhou Shujuan thought for a while, and said, "Let's go to the river, there is no other place. You bring less explosives, and we will try to find a location with fewer people."

"Okay." Ye Rongqiu walked towards the modified underground laboratory with the bottle in his arms, "You guys eat first, I'll come later."

What Ye Rongqiu brought back was just nitric acid, not a finished product. The final ingredient of liquid explosives was nitroglycerin.Glycerin was also refined by him a long time ago. He put down the nitric acid and was about to go up to eat, but he couldn't bear the itch in his heart, so he sat down at the table again and poured out the little bit of nitric acid he brought back.

On the ground, Zhou Shujuan and Tang Changtian had already started eating.

"I'll go get him a bowl of soup first." Zhou Shujuan put down his chopsticks.

"See if it's still hot." Tang Changtian said, "If it's not hot, regenerate the stove and cook for a while, it will be quick."

"I know." Zhou Shujuan stood up, ready to go to the kitchen.

"Boom!" Suddenly, there was a muffled explosion, and the whole floor trembled twice.

Both Zhou Shujuan and Tang Changtian were stunned.

"What's going on?" Tang Changtian asked, "Is this... firing? Cannons are being shot outside?"

Zhou Shujuan swallowed: "It seems...it came from below..."

The two were stunned again, and a few seconds later, they rushed towards the tunnel at the same time!
