I couldn't take it anymore; when I went home for Chinese New Year, the family genealogy book ha

At the west end of the village, in the courtyard of the villager Jiang Shunde's house.

Jiang Shunde had just finished lighting a string of five thousand-shot "Big Red Fireworks" that he had specially bought from a fireworks specialty store in the county town through connections.

The deafening crackling sound lasted for a full three minutes before it stopped.

The air was thick with the smell of gunpowder, and the ground was littered with red paper scraps, symbolizing a prosperous and thriving year to come.

Jiang Shunde stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the scene with a satisfied smile on his face.

He felt that his family's first firecracker this year was loud and impressive enough, making it unique in the whole village.

"Alright, go back inside!"

Jiang Shunde dusted off his hands and smugly greeted his wife and children.

But just as he turned around...

"Thump—!!!"

A deafening roar, unlike anything he had ever heard before, so deep and muffled it seemed to come from the depths of the earth, suddenly came from the east end of the village!

That sound didn't sound like a cannon going off at all!

It sounded more like a pile driver on a construction site, slamming its wheels into the ground with all its might!

It was like a thunderclap suddenly sounding in the clear sky!

Jiang Shunde's heart skipped a beat from the sound, and the dumpling bowl in his hand clattered to the ground in fright.

"What's that noise?!"

He turned around abruptly and looked towards the east end of the village.

Before he could even see it clearly...

A golden beam of light, hundreds of times brighter than a car's high beam, shot from the direction of Jiang Chen's house, trailing a long tail of flame, and roared straight into the sky with an indomitable spirit!

The beam of light flew extremely fast and extremely high!

It instantly broke through the clouds and exploded hundreds of meters in the air!

"boom--!!!"

That instant.

The night sky over Jiangjia Village seemed to be ignited by a small sun!

All that remained before everyone's eyes was a blinding white!

A few seconds later, his vision slowly returned to normal.

Against the dark sky, a giant peony, over a hundred meters in diameter and composed of countless golden points of light, was slowly blooming in a majestic manner!

That golden light was so dazzling, so domineering!

It even made the moon and stars in the sky appear dim and lackluster!

Golden specks of light, like golden raindrops, drifted down slowly and ceaselessly.

The entire Jiangjia Village was illuminated as if it were daytime by this giant golden peony!

"Whose house is this...whose house is this?!"

Jiang Shunde's mouth dropped open, and he didn't even realize that the chopsticks in his hand had fallen to the ground.

"Did...did they launch a cannonball into the sky?!"

however.

This is just the beginning.

Before the villagers could even recover from the shock of the cannon fire...

At the entrance of Jiang Chen's courtyard at the east end of the village, the real performance began.

Not just once.

It's firing in rapid succession!

Jiang Chen pressed the start button.

The twenty "Gatling" guns lined up in a row seemed to be a heavy machine gun position that had received the order for a general offensive, and they instantly came to life!

"Da da ...

The dense, metallic roar instantly shattered the midnight silence!

Twenty thick tongues of fire spewed wildly from the dark cannon muzzle!

Thousands upon thousands of red, green, blue, and purple light bullets, like tracer bullets piercing the night sky or like a meteor shower flowing against the current, formed a dense, colorful barrage, pouring wildly into the night sky with an unparalleled momentum!

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

High in the sky, the light bombs exploded one after another, forming a dazzling sea of ​​fireworks that also carried a chilling atmosphere!

That sound!

That aura!

That scene!

It wasn't fireworks at all!

This is war!

It was an absolute barrage of firepower, relentlessly and saturatingly suppressing the entire night sky!

In the Jiang family courtyard.

Jiang Jianjun and Wang Xiuying were already stunned.

They stood dumbfounded under the eaves, staring at the scene before them that resembled a Hollywood war blockbuster, their minds completely blank.

Wang Xiuying's lips trembled. She wanted to say something, but found that she couldn't utter a single sound.

She felt the solid ground beneath her feet tremble slightly in the terrifying roar!

Jiang Jianjun clenched his fists, his body trembling slightly uncontrollably from excessive excitement and shock.

He looked at his son, who stood at the forefront of the flames, holding a remote control, with a slightly arrogant smile on his face.

He suddenly understood.

The things my son said before weren't just boasting.

The Jiang family, starting tonight.

It really is different now.

At this moment, Jiang Chen was bathed in the flames and roar of the sky.

He looked at the "shooting stars" he had personally sent into the sky, feeling the power that seemed capable of tearing everything apart.
