Chapter 151: The Gambling House

"Why are you here so late? Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Zhong Liwu complained.

"Something was delayed on the way." Chu Nan explained, "Let's not talk about this for now, have you found out the location of the armory?" ”

"Got it." Zhong Liwu said that it was still a piece of cake for him.

Of course, Chu Nan and Zhao Qing couldn't go to the munitions depot with such a swagger, and the two of them changed into the equipment of the Qin army in Zhong Liwu's camp tent, and then walked towards that place under the leadership of Zhong Liwu.

Chu Nan now felt more and more that it was the right choice for him to arrange Zhong Liwu in this military camp in the first place, just like now, because of Zhong Liwu's guidance, they easily approached the location of the munitions depot, which was a huge building made of huge boulders, so that they didn't have to worry about the enemy setting fire to the ordnance and burning it.

All three of them were extremely cautious, and even some patrolling soldiers were easily fooled.

They infiltrated the armory, the huge armory in countless halberds, spears and swords were piled together, in order to keep these weapons well, it was not very damp, but most of these weapons were rusty, and many of the swords were broken in two, it seemed that the army going north not only took away more than 10,000 troops and even brought most of the ordnance, and he could also know that the Qin army's war in the north was not optimistic, although there were many melee weapons in the armory, But they didn't see much of the crossbow bow and arrow.

A special crossbow like Qin State's use of the best wood in the selection of materials, coupled with the effect of white oil, it basically takes two to three years for a special crossbow machine to be made to be completed.

In addition to the crossbow machine made of wood, there are also bronze crossbow machines, which are mainly made of copper, tin, lead, etc., so that the crossbow machines are also easier to preserve, and these small machines made of bronze are very exquisite, and of course the value is also very expensive.

Each crossbow machine will have a special guard to record, and its whereabouts will also be specially numbered, even if these crossbow machines are destroyed by their own people to the Qin State, they will not be left to the enemy.

In the field of vision of Chu Nan and the others, these crossbow machines are not only rough in production, but even the bowstring is a little loose, obviously shoddy, but these are not what Chu Nan is worried about, what he is worried about is that there are a total of three hundred crossbow machines in the case book, but there are only less than a hundred here, so the situation is not as Cao Rong said, fifty crossbow machines have been lost, but it should be one hundred, which is enough to arm a small army, it seems that the situation in Dongjun is more complicated than he said.

"You're saying that Cao Rong has a problem, he lied to us,."

Zhao Qing said, "There is no reason for this, because he told us the news." ”

Although the three of them can't say anything yet, it's not a situation where they can't see the clues at all, nor is it a black one.

After the investigation was clear, Chu Nan and Zhao Qing quickly left the barracks, and they did not find that the armory had been invaded, and in the next few days, there was no major incident in the entire East County, and the smile about Bu Mo was slowly reduced.

Autumn is approaching, and the leaves are scattered, and there are many fewer pedestrians on the streets at this time, and even a few people are hurrying by tightly wrapped in their clothes.

Chu Nan, who was wearing a thick cotton jacket, came to the streets of Dongjun alone, because the assassins seemed to have suddenly evaporated these days, and there was no news again, so the soldiers in the county town also decreased a lot, and the caravans came and went.

Chu Nan walked with his eyes but was searching for something, and finally he seemed to have found something, and he put his hands together and put it into his sleeves, and then he felt a little warm.

He went straight to a small shop next to him, which had no signboard but a blue wine banner hanging outside the hall, which fluttered in the wind in the light of the day, and occasionally the smell of wine passed through the curtain of the small shop and then passed through the autumn wind towards the street.

Chu Nan opened the curtain of the door and walked straight in, a wave of heat came to his face, the outside looked small, but the inside was surprisingly spacious, more than ten tables were placed neatly, many drinkers were inside, obviously the business of this store was excellent.

Chu Nan found a table alone, and a guy in a cotton shirt came forward enthusiastically.

"Whether the guest officer drinks or eats vegetables."

"Drink and eat as well as drink, bring the best spirits from your store, and a few side dishes by the way."

Chu Nan said proudly.

Xiao Er brought up a large jar of wine, in fact, Chu Nan's wine volume was not bad, and the spirits of this era were not as strong as he imagined due to the limitations of the production process, so he drank a few big sips in a row to dispel the ones on his body.

"Little two."

"What else do you need, guest officer?"

"Call the shopkeeper of your shop."

That Xiao Er was a little puzzled, but in the depths of his pupils, there was a sense of vigilance, which made people feel very strange, and such a look became more and more strange when it appeared on an ordinary shopkeeper, Chu Nan looked at the hidden emblem on the beam from the corner of his eyes to confirm that he was not mistaken.

He inadvertently flipped out the iron token in his sleeve, but this token was the token that Zhang Han left for him to contact the shadow guard, and the little er's pupils shrank suddenly, but he still said without changing his face.

"Our shopkeeper is in the backyard, this guest should take a step to speak."

The man led Chu Nan towards the backyard.

"I didn't expect the county keeper to come to the shop in person."

Chu Nan looked at the middle-aged man in front of him who was talking, the man was wearing a thin shirt, and on the outside of the shirt was a fox fur to resist the wind, his face was ordinary, revealing an elegant atmosphere.

Chu Nan arched his hand and said, "I didn't expect that the principal of the Shadow Secret Guard in Dongjun would be such an elegant man. ”

"Lord County Keeper said with a smile, where is it still elegant to run a liquor store in Dongjun, it is better to say that I am a businessman! And I guess the county keeper didn't just come to drink this time. ”

"Of course not." Chu Nan said, "It's true that there are a hundred crossbows missing in the army, General Zhang Han said that if you are in trouble, you can seek help from the shadow guard, I don't know if Mr. Wu can be trusted." ”

"Of course." Wu Chu said with a smile.

"Actually, not long ago we discovered the whereabouts of one of the ballistas."

These crossbow machines in the army have detailed craftsmanship, and it can almost be said that it is even more difficult for the people to imitate them.

"If you have to, you can meet this person." Wu Chu handed over a piece of drawing paper.

Chu Nan took the piece of paper in his hand, looked at it carefully, and put it in his arms.

"So where can I meet him?" He looked at Wu Chu.

"Changle Fang, this is his favorite place, but I advise you to bring plenty of money with you when you go there."

"Why?"

Chu Nan asked rhetorically.

"Because it's a gambling house."

Chu Nan smiled, "This is the kind of place I like to go to the most. ”
