Chapter 13 Fire

West Lake, the earliest known as Wulin water. There are clouds in the Han book: Qian Tang, the western capital Weizhi. Wulin Mountain, out of Wulin Water, enters the sea in the east, and travels 830 miles. Later, there were various names such as Qianshui, Qiantang Lake, Mingsheng Lake, Jinniu Lake, Xizi Lake, Xiling Lake, Mingyue Lake and so on.

However, there are only two names that are generally recognized by the past dynasties and have been passed down in the world, one is the ancient name of Hangzhou, Qiantang, and the lake is also called Qiantang Lake; First, because the lake is in the west of Hangzhou, the lake is also known as the West Lake.

The earliest appearance of the name "West Lake" was in the Tang Dynasty poet Bai Juyi's poems "West Lake Returns to Wanggushan Temple in the Evening" and "Hangzhou Huifang". Since then, the name of the West Lake has spread all over the world, and since the Northern Song Dynasty, most of the literati and artists have taken the name of the West Lake as the name, and the name of Qiantang Lake has gradually become less known.

West Lake has always been a "gold cave" for singing and dancing. There is a record in the history of the Yuan Dynasty: Hangzhou, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, between half a year old, more than 1,200 people pass by, there are mulberry vultures, Baoheding and other lions, leopards, crows, falcons, stay for 20 days and 7 days, people and animals eat more than 1,300 catties of meat.

However, in the later period of the Yuan Dynasty, the imperial court was negligent in governing the West Lake, and the rich and noble surrounded the fields along the lake, making the West Lake increasingly barren, and most of the lake was silted up into lotus fields. It was not until the Hongwu Dynasty that the West Lake gradually restored its former prosperity and even surpassed its former prosperity.

Now it is already on the lights, but the West Lake is still crowded, the curfew of the imperial court does not seem to have any effect on the West Lake, not the exception of the West Lake, but an attic on the edge of the West Lake is on fire, even with the surrounding five attics are also burning, fortunately, the guards of Hangzhou City appeared fast enough, cleaned up the combustible objects between the houses, and then connected the water hose, and worked for more than an hour to extinguish the open flame!

The crowd pointed and said, "Fortunately, it is on the edge of the West Lake, and it is convenient to get water, otherwise where would this fire burn!" ”

"What's good? It burned for less than half an hour, and I rushed here from the east of the city, and the fire went out too quickly, and I didn't see anything! "Someone in the crowd shot back!

"What kind of heart do you have? It's not your house that burns it! "The other can't stand it!

"What's the matter with you? I said mine, even if you are the king of heaven and Lao Tzu, you can't control the heavens and the earth, you can't control Lao Tzu's shit and fart! "The person who spoke just now was even more angry than the fire just now!

"Your mother's." The other man started attacking the man's family.

"Your sister's!"

So the topic of the two began to shift to the female relatives of both sides, and took gender as the center and relatives as the radius, and greeted almost all the female relatives on both sides. Later, when it was found that the noun alone was no longer enough, a verb was added in front of the noun, and then it changed from a verb to an action, and the two sides began to fight.

Originally, many people in the crowd were the same as these two people, who came to see the excitement, but they couldn't see the excitement and couldn't help but be disappointed, but in a blink of an eye, someone here was fighting, and all of them automatically formed a circle, surrounding the two people who were fighting in the middle, and began to point again!

"Is this good luck or bad luck?" It was not easy to squeeze out four people in the crowd, and they were all the members of the Daming Dart Bureau. The big boss, the second boss, the third boss, and one subordinate! Yu Lian, who had a lot of nonsense, squeezed out of the crowd and began to speak!

Qiao Luming knew that this girl was lamenting the consequences of the fire, because the employer who collected the debt this time lived in one of the several houses that were burned, if it burned to death in it, it would definitely be bad luck for the employer, but for Yu Lian, the 100,000 taels he got from Liu Anqing would automatically belong to him, so the fire was definitely good and couldn't be better luck!

"What? Do? Not allowed to enter! Qiao Luming was about to take another step forward, but was stopped by a person dressed in the costume of a yamen official, with a look of vigilance, holding the handle of the knife, and he would draw a knife to cut people at any time!

"This, ah, please, my mother is inside, I want to go back! I want to see my mother for the last time, and the official will do it. Ouyang Bo immediately knelt down on his knees, hugged the thighs of the official, snorted and cried, and howled. Qiao Luming's eyes widened, what the hell is this? The saying that a man has gold under his knees is not as good as a fart in Ouyang Bo's heart.

Sure enough, when the official saw Ouyang Bo's appearance, his expression had relaxed, and he couldn't help but say in a comforting tone: "It's curfew time, and the whole family is sleeping peacefully in the house. ”

When Ouyang Bo heard this, he immediately became like no one else, and immediately said to several other people: "Let's go!" ”

Qiao Luming and the others, including the tolerance, all looked surprised, this change of face is also very fast, right?

Yu Lian still wanted to see the fire again, but the fire could be extinguished with a sip of saliva, and then looked at the soldiers who were still fetching water, and wanted to pray that the hope of another fire had been extinguished, so the four of them quickly stayed away from the scene!

"Big boss, you and Xu Lang should go back first!" After Qiao Luming walked out of the crowd, he suddenly said to Yu Lian.

"Huh? What else are you going to do? As a big boss, Yu Lian felt that he needed to care about his subordinates!

"You go back with the 100,000 taels first, and Ouyang and I will help you see if there are any thieves who are following you!" Qiao Luming opened his eyes and said nonsense, even Xu Lang was looking at Qiao Luming with contempt, are you lying to the ghost?

But Yu Lian believed it, and I still have a subordinate like you, which is really fortunate for me to have lost my life! He patted Qiao Luming's shoulder seriously: "Don't worry, this money belongs to the Daming Dart Bureau, and it is our common property, and I will not swallow it alone." ”

The other three looked at each other, how could they hear this as if they were saying that I would definitely swallow it alone? Ouyang Bo squinted at Yu Lian, and almost hallucinated, because now Yu Lian's two eyes were all copper coins in the round sky!

The four of them split into two groups and disappeared into the darkness in different directions, and not long after, three masked men dressed in black appeared where the four of them had just stood

"Which two?" A slightly chubby masked man pointed in the direction where Qiao Luming and Ouyang Bo disappeared, and some pointed in the direction where Yu Lian and Xu Lang disappeared!

"Yu Lian has no value, what the master wants is Ouyang Bo!" One of the three of them said coldly, a slightly shorter masked man, his voice like he had been fished out of the ice and snow, and it was biting cold!

"What about the person who was with Ouyang Bo?" Another tall masked man asked, apparently the slightly shorter masked person who had just spoken was the leader.

"Hmph, it's just ants, just don't stop us, otherwise! Hum! The shorter masked man made a motion to wipe his neck.

After the three of them agreed, they quietly chased in the direction where Qiao Luming and the others disappeared. But what the three of them didn't know was that not long after they disappeared, Qiao Luming and Ouyang Bo rushed out of another alley.

"This fire is unusual! It is estimated that Liu Anqing's people have already made a move, and the action is really fast enough. Qiao Luming frowned and said.

"What should I do?" Ouyang Bo knew that he might end up in this fate soon, but he thought that his strategy and scheming were all over the world, and he couldn't do anything about this kind of high-ranking martial arts person, as the saying goes, only when a show meets a soldier, it is unreasonable!

"You wait here, I'll deal with them!" Qiao Luming took out a piece of black cloth to cover his face, then took out an item in the shape of a pen holder and handed it to Ouyang Bo, and said in a low tone: "This is something that my master passed down to me: the Thousand Bees Secret Fan!" The situation is critical, I will lend you for the time being, you take it and hide, in case of danger, you can save your life! Remember, it is very powerful and extremely poisonous, don't use it on this ordinary person, otherwise you will not be able to return to heaven even if you are an immortal! Also, don't let others know that I have it, or you'll get into unnecessary trouble! ”

Ouyang Bo is also a person who is proficient in the hidden weapon of the mechanism, he knows that this is the number one secret weapon in the world, and its small and exquisite appearance is its appearance; Strong strength is its connotation; After excitation, it is characterized by fan-shaped shooting out of thousands of sharp needles, and small silver needles like sharp needles; It is its advantage to specifically break the inner master's body protection qi!

If you smear the silver needle with poison, it is a life-saving talisman for the Buddha to block and kill the Buddha, and for the gods to block and kill the gods! It can be described as a must-have for home travel, killing people and goods!

Legend has it that Li Yuanba at the end of the Sui Dynasty, with superb martial arts, was named the first master of the late Sui and early Tang Dynasties. Since then, the Thousand Bee Secret Fan has spread in the rivers and lakes, but no one has ever seen the Thousand Bee Secret Fan, so the Thousand Bee Secret Fan is more like a legend, a myth and a legend.

Ouyang Bo has always only heard of its name, not seen it, he has long admired it, and he is also very curious about the structure of the mechanism inside, thinking that this is just a legend, and it is impossible to see it in this life. But Qiao Luming took it out, the key is Qiao Luming's tone, this product showed an unprecedented mystery, Ouyang Bo was suspicious at the first time, and felt that it was possible at the second time, and finally Ouyang Bo believed it, so the first thing he thought about when he took over the Thousand Bees Secret Fan was to take it apart and look at the structure inside.

Qiao Luming saw Ouyang Bo turning over and over the Thousand Bees Secret Fan, and even lifted the lid of the Sharp Needle Secret Fan, put the silver needle mouth to his eyes, and looked inside! Qiao Lu, who was frightened, broke out in a cold sweat, "I made it myself, the mechanism is not very stable, you still don't want to face yourself, if the mechanism fails and you are killed, my crime will be great!" ”

"You got it?" Ouyang Bo even thought that he had heard it wrong, didn't your master pass you on this? I can't wait for Qiao Luming to explain it immediately, immediately.

"It's an ordinary secret weapon, I think it's better to call it a thousand bee secret fan. Besides, don't you like to add some historical and cultural background to the Yamen, what is the former residence of Bai Juyi, the former residence of Li Bai, and Tang Xuanzong who here in the past, doesn't it seem to have connotation to install a 'Thousand Bees Secret Fan'! Qiao Luming knew that Ouyang Bo was quite accomplished, and he had no choice but to answer honestly!

"There you go!" Qiao Luming knocked him back to his original form with a word, and Ouyang Bo's eyes that narrowed down with great difficulty instantly drooped again, the title party can't die well! This ordinary secret weapon, you can make a lot of it with just your fingers! It's also connotative, it's a fart!
