The origin of firecrackers has a history of more than 2,000 years. When there was no gunpowder and paper in ancient China, people used fire to burn bamboo to make it burst and make a sound to expel the gods of pestilence, because bamboo burning made a "crackling" sound, so it was called firecrackers. Festivals or festive days are fired, a custom that reflects the good wishes of the ancient Chinese working people for Antai.
What is said about firecrackers
Bai Juyi of the Tang Dynasty is well described in the poem "Night Snow". At night, I know that the snow is heavy, and I hear the sound of folding bamboo.
This means that if you hear the sound of bamboo breaking at night, you know that it is snowing heavily. In fact, this is true, the sound of firecrackers is very loud and continuous, like setting off firecrackers. I saw a small video two days ago, the bamboo was crushed by the snow, and the sound of the explosion was really spectacular, crackling and crackling. You can find the original video on the Internet, I can't show the sound in this article.
Videos with sound on the web
In modern times, I also found that firecrackers are not the source of fireworks and firecrackers.
A few days ago, there was an article on the Internet in Wuxing District about the ban on the sale of fireworks. At the beginning of the article, the theme is introduced with "the sound of firecrackers removes the old year, and the red plum blossoms welcome the new year". If this firecracker is a firework, then isn't the article he sent a shield before and after, hitting him in the face? Set off fireworks and firecrackers to get rid of the old age, and then it is forbidden to set off fireworks and firecrackers, anyway, I can't understand it.
The sound of firecrackers is old
So my understanding is: the firecracker mentioned here is the sound of the explosion of ancient burning bamboo. But because this is not safe, plus bamboo is difficult to find, therefore, fireworks and firecrackers, burning bamboo and firecrackers are prohibited, otherwise it will not make sense.
Friends, have you ever played real firecrackers? I play a lot. When burning fires in the countryside, sometimes some half-dried bamboo is burned in the stove, which will crackle and splash some sparks, which really scares people and is really unsafe.

To get back to business: What do you think about the ban on fireworks and firecrackers during the New Year? We live on the outskirts of the city, and it has been forbidden for a few years, but salutes are still allowed, and the long 10,000-sounding explosion has indeed been forbidden. I think this is very good, the flowers are ornamental, the air pollution is small, the explosion of the war, and the noise of the smoke is too big, can not see the point of people clearly, so I absolutely support the city ban on explosions. After putting it away, the dust is really indescribable. And in the countryside, there is no prohibition, because the rural self-purification ability is strong, the dust falls on the trees, on the lawn, in the courtyard, in a few days to see, it is clean again.
It's almost the New Year, I wish everyone a safe and safe New Year!
