Chu Chenyin stood next to the cannon and felt that the entire ground beneath his feet was shaking.
After all the artillery fire had ended, Chu Chenyin looked up again and found that the city tower had been blown to pieces. The copper and iron walls that Minister Chu had mentioned had long since turned into a crooked door.
The artillery she chose this time was a howitzer with strong firepower but short range. Unlike the ancient cannons that did not hurt or itch, the explosion just now was enough to destroy a building.
The city tower was destroyed, but Chu Chenyin did not delay and immediately asked Fu Yanting to drive the carriage, and the family rushed into the city in a mighty manner.
The disaster victims at the door followed closely behind.
Chu Chenyin quickly sent the cannon back into the space and got on the carriage with Fu Yanting.
Minister Chu looked back at the carriage entering the city, his face turned pale with shock, he stumbled a few steps, and hurried forward.
Fu Yanting was sharp-eyed and happened to see it. He immediately jumped off the carriage, used his lightness skills to fly behind Minister Chu, and kicked him in the back.
Minister Chu groaned and shouted, "Good son-in-law! Good son-in-law! Let me go! The ground is all yellow sand! I will die if I bury my head in it!"
Fu Yanting grabbed his neck and pulled him up, "Father-in-law, please lead us to the Ding Mansion!"
Minister Chu quickly responded: "Yes, yes, I'll take you there right away!"
He was so frightened that his speech became incoherent, and he no longer had the arrogance he had just had on the tower.
County Commander Ding, who was standing by, was so frightened that he dared not say a word and could only lead the way for the Fu family.
Mrs. Fu and Lord Fu in the carriage only looked outside after getting Fu Kanghong's permission.
Seeing the ruined city gate, everyone was shocked.
"What happened just now? It sounded like gunfire!" Mrs. Fu asked in surprise.
Fu Kanghong didn't see it in the carriage, but thinking about what the victims had just said, he explained, "It seems to be a thunderbolt!"
"Heavenly thunder?" Mrs. Fu's face was still full of doubts, "Is there such a coincidental heavenly thunder in the world?"
Fu Kanghong comforted her and said, "Mother, it's no coincidence. There are disasters everywhere now, so it's not surprising that thunder appears."
After hearing this, Mrs. Fu gradually began to believe it.
Lord Fu didn't say anything, but it was not difficult to see the confusion on his face.
Everyone in the group was disturbed by the sound of the artillery shells just now, but no one expected that it was the work of Chu Chenyin.
Chu Chenyin sat in the carriage as if nothing had happened and followed Fu Yanting and the others to the Ding Mansion.
The disaster victims who followed along were also arranged to stay in the woodshed and guest rooms in the backyard.
After the Fu family entered the mansion, they put down their luggage and quickly changed their clothes that were stained with yellow sand.
After they changed their clothes and came out, the originally gloomy sky suddenly darkened.
It was dark outside the window, just like an evening with orange-red clouds, and then the sun set and gradually turned into night.
The small mansion also made a howling sound because of the strong wind.
The doors and windows rattled in the wind.
Chu Chenyin breathed a sigh of relief when he saw a little yellow sand overflowing from the window gap with the wind. It was a close call. They were just one step away from being caught in this huge sandstorm.
This sandstorm was very strong and lasted for nearly two hours.
The tiles on the roof jingled, as if they would be blown away by the wind in the next second.
Everyone in the room suddenly became quiet, and listened quietly to the sound of the wind outside.
Finally, it was Minister Chu who broke the silence. He knelt down and said to Lord Fu, "Lord Fu, please spare our lives! We are still relatives after all!"
As he said this, he looked at Chu Chenyin.
Chu Chenyin had no feelings for the man in front of him, and just now outside the city wall, there was hatred between them.
She just felt a little bit sorry that the artillery fire just now didn't kill him directly.
Lord Fu raised his foot and kicked Minister Chu hard, angrily shouting, "What in-laws?! Didn't you disown this daughter? From now on, your Chu family will have nothing to do with our Fu family!"
After saying that, he picked up the sword beside him and pressed it against Minister Chu's neck.
Minister Chu's eyes widened, he was frightened and peed himself.
