Gu Yuan readily agreed and said, "This thing is powerful and noisy. We can't try it in the house. Let's go to the garden."
The siblings left Yuheng Garden and headed west to the nearest small garden.
As Gu Yanfei followed the steps Gu Yuan had mentioned and prepared to fire the flintlock, she muttered to herself, "What should we shoot?"
"How about that?" Gu Yuan pointed forward and pointed at a powerful weeping willow on the other side of the lake. He reminded her, "Be careful of the recoil when the flintlock is fired."
"Alright." Gu Yanfei smiled and calmly aimed the muzzle of the flintlock at the weeping willow across the lake. She held the gun in her left hand and the stock in her right. Then, her right hand steadily pulled the trigger.
The flint clamp was jerked by the spring and struck the side of the fire door hard, sending sparks flying.
"Bang!"
