Zuan Feng Shen Huo Liu Xing Pao (鑽風神火流星砲, lit. 'Wind-boring divine fire shooting star bomb'), sometimes shortened to Feng Huo Liu Xing Pao (風火流星砲, lit. 'Wind and fire shooting star bomb') or simply Liu Xing Pao (流星砲, lit. 'Shooting star bomb'), was a cast iron bomb that could be filled with three to six types of gunpowders for different purposes. It was usually filled with incendiary, poison smoke and blinding dust gunpowder, although other options such as blinding smoke and fragmentation were also available. The bomb also came with a four fuses setup to prevent enemy troops from defusing the bomb easily.

Zuan Feng Shen Huo Liu Xing Pao came in small, medium and large variants:. The small variant was a hand grenade, medium variant was an explosive shell launched from a bombard or mortar, and the large variant, too heavy to be thrown or launched, was usually strapped to the back of a pack animal to be used as living bomb.
