Chapter 173: Fanning the Flames (I)
Walking through the streets and alleys and climbing over the walls, jumping over the ridges and ditches, it was just two pots of smoke, Yan Xu and the Nine Monkeys had already run out of a hot sweat, and the cotton robe on their bodies was also taken off early, and they tied their belts into a small burden and carried them on their backs, which did not delay the coolness of walking at all.
According to the method of tuna taught by Yan Xu on weekdays, the nine monkeys followed Yan Xu half a step behind, and they were never left behind by Yan Xu, who was walking like a fly, and his panting movements have always been even and calm, and he has a bit of a style of practicing his family for many years.
With the help of an old elm tree born next to the courtyard wall, jumped on the wall, and then climbed up the ridge of a low house along the wall, Yan Xu grabbed the arm of the nine monkeys and threw it to the roof of a two-story small building next to the ridge.
After patting the little dust on his body, Yan Xu looked at the three-way intersection on the other side of the roof, turned his head and said to the nine monkeys who had just stood up from the roof: "That's it, sit down and rest first!" The wind is hard in the high places, hurry up and wrap the cotton robe! ”
Yiyan put on a cotton robe, and then took a few deep breaths of the Tuna method taught by Yan Xu on weekdays, stabilized the knees of the nine monkeys who were panting fast and slow, and sat on the roof of the house with a five-hearted meditation frame, and then asked Yan Xu, who was also sitting down on the roof, in a muffled voice: "Second uncle, you are so steady, the freight carriage of Jushe is going to hit this three-way intersection?"
Stretched out his slap and patted it lightly on the chest of the nine monkeys, Yan Xu looked at the nine monkeys who coughed again and again after being slapped by his own slap, and shouted in a low voice: "Whether it is to serve things or practice the martial arts, the most taboo thing is to rush for quick success, especially not to slap a swollen face and become fat!" Your second uncle has walked on the rivers and lakes for so many years, and he has been watching those characters who blow the atmosphere and talk big for a while, but it is really to the point of death, not that the soles of his feet are smeared with oil. It's that the gutter capsized and lost the wind! When you were a child, no one took care of it, no one taught you, and you learned some meat and vegetarian recipes and cheap roads outside, and all of them were changed for me! Otherwise, sooner or later, something big will happen! ”
lowered his head in a sneer, and the nine monkeys replied in a muffled voice: "Second uncle, I'm not afraid that you will think I'm stupid, listen to your usual gossip with Senior Brother Xiang and Uncle Na, saying that my father can even run three mansions in one breath at the age of ten without a red face, I can't embarrass my father, right?"
His eyes suddenly turned red. Yan Xu couldn't call the Nine Monkeys to tears, so he could only quickly turn his face and cough a few times, and then whispered as if to cover up: "I just led you all the way to the shortcut, did you hear any movement in your ears?"
After a little thought, the nine monkeys replied: "At the boundary of a few street corners, it seems that you are listening to the movement of the bells of the carriage?" And the shouting of the carriage?"
He raised his hand and pointed to a street that led to a three-way intersection. Yan Xu nodded and said: "There are many doorways in the sneak, and one of the most important ones is that you have to learn to look at the terrain!" Not to mention that the paths in these four or nine cities are all remembered in your heart, that is, you have to go to a remote place, and you have to learn to figure out the way from the location of the house and the direction of the street! Just like this three-way intersection, regardless of whether the carriage of the Ju Society is a shortcut or a steady road, this is the only way from the city gate to the Ju Society. As long as you can get to this place first. Then we can handle the work to be done, and we have to follow our wishes, so that we can have a better chance of success! ”
Seeing the nine monkeys listening carefully to his words and nodding continuously, Yan Xu turned his head and pointed to another street leading to the three-way intersection: "Then tell me about it, what's so important about this road?"
Stretching his neck to look at the street that was not too wide, the nine monkeys rolled their eyes, but only for a moment. As if suddenly realized, he said to Yan Xu: "This road is a shortcut from the patrol police station to the Jushe!" Second uncle, I remember that Uncle Hu Qianli buried a hidden stake in the patrol police station? Are you going to let the people from the patrol police station face off with the carriage of the Jusha at this three-way intersection?"
Shaking his head slightly, Yan Xu said in a low voice, "You think about it carefully?"
Fiddling with his fingers, the nine monkeys muttered to themselves in a low voice: "If you want to let the people from the patrol police station and the carriage of the Jushe be opposed, even if the two people from the Jushe driving the carriage are capable, they can't stand the large number of people in the patrol police station, so you have to let the people from the patrol police station take the carriage down." It can be said that there are several side roads. Second uncle. When you were at the city gate just now, you said that Duan Ye of the Patrol Police Station and the character surnamed Zuo of Jushe both left behind? I wondered, are the people who Duan Ye has left behind are also rushing towards this side? When the time came, the three groups of people were wrapped together. Then why don't they mess up?"
He took out two walnut-sized 'seedlings' from the family bag around his waist and pinched them in his hand, and then took out a porcelain bottle about the size of a filial piety fist from the family bag and handed it to the nine monkeys, Yan Xu nodded at the nine monkeys with relief and smiled: "It's okay, it's more or less a bit of a way!"
Hurriedly took the porcelain bottle handed to him by Yan Xu, Jiu Monkey looked carefully at the cork on the porcelain bottle that was tightly sealed with kraft glue, and smiled curiously: "Second uncle, that 'Miaozi' asked me to call it in the German Shantang last time, but what kind of treasure are you in this porcelain vase?"
Pinched the two walnut-sized 'seedlings' in two palms, Yan Xu squinted his eyes and estimated the distance from the roof to the center of the street, and said with some emotion: "This thing is called 'blocker' in sneaking, and I heard the old master in sneaking say that this thing was originally a thing that fell into the folk from the hands of those blood droplets at the sticky rod of Yongzheng Chao, and it was probably made of phosphorus fire with several strong fire oils." smashed on the ground and saw the wind, even if it was splashed with water, it couldn't extinguish the fire for a while. But whenever the character in the stealth loses the wind and tells the victim to push too tightly behind, this thing will be used to block the pursuers! ”
Very excitedly, he repeatedly played with the small porcelain bottle in his hand, and the nine monkeys couldn't help but smile and responded: "Second uncle, then let's make a few more bottles of this thing?" Regardless of the side, in the third room of the Qi family line that smashes a few bottles at night that pretended to be our hall name, you have to burn him with a bare ass and run for his life?"
Shaking his head helplessly, Yan Xu sighed slightly: "If you want to make this thing, where is it so convenient?" Back then, your father and I also spent a lot of money to get three from the sneak seniors. Your father protected me and forced it into the two of us Now, the master who can do this thing is no longer there, and it is estimated that in the hands of the sneaking characters in Sijiu City, there is only such a lone seedling left in my hand! Let me see the usefulness of this thing today, and I'm afraid no one will know what this 'block' is in the future! ”
Looking at Yan Xu's reluctant appearance, the nine monkeys really had a little reluctant thoughts: "Second uncle, since this 'block' is so precious, do we have to use it?"
Nodding vigorously, Yan Xu said to the nine monkeys in a deep voice: "Good steel has to be used on the blade!" When you hold it for a while, you can smash this 'block' on the carriage for me!" ”
As soon as Yan Xu's words fell, the crisp sound of the carriage bell was faintly heard from a street leading to the three-way intersection. Perhaps it was because the charioteer was urging the horses too quickly, and the sound of the carriage bells, which should have been heard in a staggered manner, was now ringing into a noisy noise, which made people feel very harsh when they heard it.
Half-squatting on the roof, Yan Xu gently clasped the two 'seedlings' with both hands, and his eyes were fixed on the galloping carriage. When the four-wheeled carriage rushed to the left of the three-way intersection, and there happened to be no pedestrians passing around the carriage, Yan Xu waved his hands violently, and the two walnut-sized 'seedlings' were like lightning, and smashed their heads on the eyes of the horse that had already run to the point of foaming at the mouth!
In the smoke that rose with a bang, the horse, which had already run wildly, neighed and jumped on the spot in a frenzy. The carriage, which had already been unable to contain its momentum, suddenly stopped and jumped, and the wheel, which was arm thick, immediately broke into several pieces with a creak under the strength of the two pairs, and poked on the ground in a daze.
Under the sudden pause, the Ogasawara brothers, who were just sitting in the carriage and galloping wildly, were caught off guard and screamed in unison, and both of them threw themselves forward in the air, almost simultaneously crashing headlong into the middle of the three-way intersection, and fell bleeding and unable to move.
Before a few pedestrians on the street could scream, a group of uniformed patrol officers had already poured out from the end of another street, or dozens of patrol police station helpers with iron rulers, iron chains, hemp ropes, and wooden sticks. As soon as a greasy-haired and powder-faced patrol officer led by him saw the carriage that had overturned at the three-way intersection, he immediately shouted at the top of his voice: "That's the carriage!" Take the carriage to the patrol police station, and one of the people who do it will be counted as one, and one person will have five oceans, and he will take the money in person, and he will not owe it! ”
In the midst of the shouting, a group of patrol officers and the helpers raised by the patrol police station suddenly shouted and rushed towards the overturned carriage. It was just a short street away, and in the blink of an eye, several fast-legged patrolmen had already rushed to the overturned carriage, and a pair of hands quickly grocery pockets were scattered around the carriage
