When the townfolk make their bomb, why didn’t they just use the gun powder as is, instead of taking all that time to create the bomb? Wouldn’t it just blow up if fire was added?

Actually, no.  Black powder (the old kind of gun powder) does not explode unless it is confined inside a strong container.  If lit in the open, it just burns rapidly with a kind of “whoosh” sound.
