Chapter 135: Splashing Dirty Water

It took half a month for Qi Jinzhi to fuse Qi Qinzhi's memory. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

As he guessed, Qi Qinzhi was very cautious, and he kept all the major secrets of Dongqi in his mind. What the old ancestor's codex, what Dongqi's secret guard, and the eldest princess's hidden large fortune, etc., etc.

Among all the secrets, Qi Jinzhi still valued the old ancestor's codex and the secret guard of Eastern Qi the most.

On that day, the ancestor of the Qi family, Qi Ziru, married two wives, and in order to take care of 'righteousness' and 'love', Qi Ziru fairly divided all his property into two parts. A good Qi family was artificially split into two parts: Eastern Qi and Western Qi.

Except for the only title, everything in the Qi family, even if it is a piece of paper, must be divided into two.

What the West Qi has, the East Qi must not be missing.

What Dongqi doesn't have, Xiqi can't think of it.

Thanks to Qi Ziru's ability, he has made a huge share of the family business, even if it is split, it is very rich to take out a copy casually.

In the following decades, the Eastern Qi and Western Qi continued to have internal friction, but the heads of the houses on both sides were not straw bales, especially when there was a suspicious enemy in the 'next door', and none of them dared to slack off.

From Qi Keng, Qi Qiang to Qi Lingyuan, Qi Lingxian, and then to Qi Qinzhi and Qi Jinzhi, three generations of people have worked hard to develop and expand the power of the Qi family.

Because of this, the Qi family has gone through several ups and downs, and a few years ago, they were robbed of the family, and all the glory seemed to be taken back by the imperial court at once.

But the people of Eastern Qi and Western Qi knew in their hearts that what the government had copied was only the assets of the Qi family on the surface. The real big head is still in the hands of Qi Lingyuan and Qi Lingxian.

This is also the main reason why the eldest princess dares to continue to mix and seize the heir after raiding the house: there are people who have money, and there are firearms that saints are afraid of, and with so many resources, her already small ambition has swelled. At the right opportunity, the eldest princess led Dongqi all the way to death.

After such a toss, the strength of Eastern Qi was exhausted, but the most valuable wealth was carefully preserved: the "Codex of Qi Ziru" and the news channels and secret agents throughout the capital and southwest.

"Father, these are the new weapons mentioned by the ancestors,"

Qi Jinzhi came to Qi Lingxian's study with the "Qi Ziru Codex" written silently in person, led by Qi Lingxian, and the father and son entered the underground secret room behind the study.

Closing the heavy iron door, Qi Lingxian and Qi Jinzhi sat on the ground. The codex lay in the open space between them.

Qi Lingxian carefully picked up the codex with awe, gently opened the title page, and the thin gold body of Qi Jin's iron painting silver hook came into view.

Qi Lingxian rolled his eyes and read silently line by line.

He read it very slowly, and it took him half an hour to read the thin codex of dozens of pages.

After reading the last line, Qi Lingxian slowly closed the booklet, let out a long breath, took the pen wash on the side, dipped his index finger in some water, and wrote directly on the ground: "It is worthy of the ancestors, who came up with such a delicate and powerful weapon." With this thing, the Qi family can prosper for decades. ”

The secret of firearms has been hidden for decades, but it will soon be impossible to hide.

If the Qi family develops a more powerful and convenient weapon at this time, not only will it not be completely eliminated by the emperor, but it may also be possible to turn around and regain the title of Duke of Qianguo.

No matter how bad it is, the Qi family can still escape to the southwest and establish themselves as kings in the far south of Xinjiang, and they can still continue the wealth and glory of the Qi family.

"Father, the old ancestor is not a mortal, his old man left us a way back decades ago."

Qi Jinzhi was also full of awe, and restored the codex of his ancestors, only then did he know that his ancestors were so wise and wise.

When he was a child, when Qi Jinzhi read his family history, he used to wonder that the Great Qi frontier was full of smoke, whether it was the vast southeast coast, the vast northwest, or the eastern part of Liaodong, it was a battlefield for meritorious achievements. The ancestors didn't choose those places, why did they only have a soft spot for the remote and wild southwest?!

It's not that the old ancestors are confused, but that these juniors are too ignorant to comprehend the deep vision of the old ancestors.

"The southwest is good, whether it is to the west or to the south, there are vast deep forests and land, where there are abundant products and a warm climate, as long as it is managed properly, it will become the best base."

Qi Lingxian squinted his eyes and chewed carefully on a passage written by the old ancestor on the last page of the codex, "If the southwest can't gain a foothold, then continue to advance westward, and places like Annam can also be home." Take 10,000 steps back, the imperial court really wants to kill the Qi family, and if you can't stay inland, you can still go to sea. ”

Qi Ziru thought very thoughtfully, and he hid a map in the thick paper interlayer of the book cover, which recorded in detail the geography and landforms of Guizhou, Yunnan, Shu and other places, and also attached a route to Lingnan and then to the sea.

The two prefectures in the east and west each held half of the map, and Qi Jinzhi fused the half under Qi Qinzhi's back, and it took three days to restore the whole map.

"That's right, we can still go to sea as a last resort."

Qi Jinzhi's eyes flashed with brilliance, his fingers were dipped in clear water, and he wrote quickly on the ground, "The ancestor left us the drawings of the sea boat, and our family has been following the ancestral training over the years to send the Qi family army to the southeast camp for training, and after decades of accumulation, there are now at least two hundred young and strong soldiers who are familiar with the sea route to drive." ”

With a boat and sailors trained in the sea, it is not difficult for the family to go to sea!

Not to mention, the Qi family also has firearms and new weapons around them.

Thinking of this, Qi Jinzhi couldn't help but be proud in his chest. The ancestors left them so many life-saving treasures, if their Qi family can't stand up, then there is no heavenly reason!

“…… I don't have to think about going to sea or anything for the time being. Our Qi family can't get to that point yet. ”

After Qi Lingxian was excited, he wrote on the ground very calmly: "At present, the most important thing is to create new weapons. It just so happened that the old man of the Gu family was in Liaodong, and one of the several 'black gold mines' mentioned by the ancestor was in Liaodong. I wrote to my in-laws and asked them to help mine some 'black gold'. ”

Qi Jinzhi nodded again and again, and reminded in a timely manner: "By the way, the mined 'black gold' can be sent to Zhuangzi under the name of A Luo." That grange is close to the mountains and water, and it is the most convenient to refine 'black gold'. What's even better is that that place is far away from Liaodongwei, and there are very few strangers who pay attention to it, so it's the most safe! ”

Qi Lingxian nodded with satisfaction.

The father and son became more and more excited the more they talked, and kept writing on the ground with their fingers dipped in water.

Soon, the water in the bowl mouth of the pen wash was at the bottom.

When Qi Ling dipped in water first, his fingertips touched the bottom of the pen wash, and then he realized that there was not much water. He shook his head with a smile, didn't get wet, and said softly: "Okay, let's follow this plan." You, it's okay, right? ”

Qi Jinzhi sat up straight, his eyes full of fanaticism. But when he heard his father's last words, the corners of his eyes couldn't help but twitch, and twitch again!

"No, nothing, I can, I can do it!"

Qi Jinzhi endured the nausea, and reluctantly reassured.

"Don't force it, try to do it. After all, those people don't matter, it's best to kill one stone, if not, just do the most important thing, it's enough. ”

Qi Lingxian knew his son's temperament well and knew that he was embarrassed this time.

Qi Lingxian felt sorry for his son, thought about it, and whispered.

Qi Jinzhi pursed his lips, and his embarrassed expression became serious, "Don't worry, don't worry, son." ”

Isn't it just acting, Qi Qinzhi can do it, but he can't do it without reason.

……

Late at night, on the outskirts of Beijing!

There was silence all around, and the moonlight flowed down softly like water.

Several figures flew by, leaving afterimages on the empty cemetery.

Walking through the abandoned cemetery, one of the black shadows reached out to open the mechanism, and the heavy rock split in two and opened on both sides.

A few people familiarly touched in.

The valley floor was quiet, most of the houses were pitch black, except for a few places where fires were lit.

Several dark shadows ran towards one of the lighted rooms, silhouettes of each other reflected on the window paper.

After a while, the lights in the house went out.

Then there was the sound of small footsteps, and the sound spread all the way in the direction of the storeroom.

A quarter of an hour later, several dark shadows carried a staggering man, carrying a large burden on his back, and looking at the shape, it seemed to be a box.

The group returned the way they came, and when they reached the mouth of the valley, one of the black shadows took out a fire fold and a small porcelain bottle from their bosoms. Boom~ The orange fire flashed, and the lead of the small porcelain bottle was ignited.

The man neatly threw the small porcelain vase in the direction of the storeroom.

After throwing away the small porcelain vase, the black shadow did not dare to delay, and quickly led the group out of the valley.

Before they could close the mechanism, a loud bang rang out behind them.

Rumble~~

The ground shook, and a huge point of light erupted in the valley, spreading out in all directions.

Several black shadows ran fast, long away from the explosion point, but they were still affected. Several people fell to the ground, holding their heads in their hands, and waited quietly with their eyes closed.

The explosions in the valley continued.

Boom~Boom~~Boom~~

With a loud bang, the warehouse exploded, the beams collapsed, the bricks and tiles flew wildly, the burning debris fell everywhere, and the fire spread.

In less than half an hour, the firearms workshop, which had existed for sixty or seventy years, was surrounded by flames, which lit up most of the night.

"Let's go!"

The leader of the shadows, who was lying on the ground, put his ear to the ground, listened for a while, and made sure that the explosion was over, then got up, turned his head to look at the burning valley, and shouted in a low voice.

Several others jumped up from the ground, without saying a word, carrying large burdens, and running quickly in the moonlight.

They walked through the cemetery, bypassed the paths, and wandered in circles on the outskirts of Beijing for most of the night.

It wasn't until dawn that they cautiously moved to a mountain village in the east of the city.

When they came to the gate of the villa, they did not forget to turn back and be vigilant, and repeatedly made sure that no one was following them, so they sent a signal and waited for their companions in the village to come out to greet them.

And on a big tree three or four hundred steps away from the villa, there was a short and thin man, who looked ordinary, except for a pair of burning eyes staring at a few figures shaking in front of him.

……

"Big brother, I haven't seen you for a few days, what are you busy with? The younger brother went to the house several times to inquire, but he never saw you. ”

Not surprisingly, Xiao Gang met Qi Jinzhi in Happy Villa. He deliberately made a look of surprise and greeted him warmly.

Qi Jinzhi's face was very bad, and his two big dark circles looked like he hadn't slept all night.

His eyes were bloodshot, and he stared at Xiao Gang directly.

Xiao Gang stroked his clothes unnaturally, and said with a dry smile: "Big brother, what's wrong?" Why do you look at my little brother like this? Isn't it the little brother, where did you offend the eldest brother? If the eldest brother has something to say, the younger brother will definitely listen to it. ”

Qi Jinzhi kept a straight face and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth, "What did you do last night?" ”

Xiao Gang was stunned, "Last night? I—I'm at home. ”

Qi Jinzhi took a step forward, "Last night, there was an explosion on the outskirts of the city, which blew the entire valley into ruins. At the time of the incident, the officers who were far away at the post station were alarmed and ran to check overnight. It is said that the soldiers in the castle near the city walls also felt the vibration of the ground...... Have you ever heard of such a big movement, Sizheng? ”

Xiao Gang shook his head blankly, "Our family is in the inner city, and we didn't hear any noise at night. Wait, big brother, you said the suburbs? Could it be—"

Xiao Gang looked like he was waking up from a dream, and his handsome and extraordinary face was full of consternation.

"That's right, it was my workshop that was bombed. All 49 craftsmen in the workshop were killed, nearly 100 porcelain mines in the warehouse were blown up, and the Qi family's 60 years of hard work were destroyed! ”

Qi Jinzhi's voice was hoarse, and his gaze at Xiao Gang was very unkind.

Xiao Gang didn't seem to notice it, and said eagerly: "How can this be? Big brother, is the loss of the Qi family big? Has the government ever traced the Qi family? Oh, it's really bad, Jinyi Weiyuan is eyeing your Qi family, and he is worried that he has no handle. This time if—"

His words came to an abrupt end.

Because his shirt was firmly grasped by a large hand, and his neck was stuck in the placket, he could not speak normally.

Qi Jinzhi looked directly at Xiao Gang's eyes: "My family's workshop is the most secret. No one else knows about that place but you. You just went there a month ago, and there was an accident there yesterday, you say, is this too much of a coincidence? Yes? ”

Qi Jinyi said while exerting force in his hand.

Xiao Gang's body was lifted up by him with one hand, and he could only touch the ground with his toes.

"Big, big brother, you, you let go of me first, if you have something to say, if you have something to say!"

Xiao Gang's face turned red, his eyes couldn't help but turn upward, and he even felt death.

Qi Jinzhi looked at him, and just a moment before Xiao Gang almost fainted, he let go of his hand.

Xiao Gang threw himself on the ground and coughed vigorously while stroking his chest.

After a while, Xiao Gang relieved himself and got up from the ground with difficulty.

Qi Jinzhi sat on the chair and said coldly: "Say, I want to hear your explanation." You'd better tell me that the business of the workshop has nothing to do with you, otherwise, don't blame me for not being emotional. ”

Xiao Gang slowly sat down opposite Qi Jinzhi, his beautiful face was a little embarrassed, "Big brother, I can swear to the sky, the matter of the workshop has nothing to do with me." If I tell half a lie, I will not die well, and I will not be reborn after death! ”

Qi Jinzhi's expression seemed to soften.

In these years, people still pay attention to oaths, and they will never swear poisonous oaths unless they have to.

Xiao Gang was secretly happy, he knew that Qi Jinzhi was reluctant to give up on himself.

Very well, then he just needs to splash the dirty water on the head of the brocade guard...... (To be continued.) )
