Chapter 157: Man-made landslide

"Even if he doesn't have a cannon on the ship, maybe he will still deal with Lord Huang on the water, it's hard to say anything about an ambush in the water, so it's better for everyone to be careful." Stone, who had been silent, said.

The stone's name is Shi Xiaohu, he is a sturdy man, because he is silent on weekdays, like a stone, he has the nickname of "stone", he generally does not like to speak when he meets everyone to discuss, but sometimes when he speaks, what he says can often get to the point.

Hearing the stone's words, everyone was shocked, and without Zhu Xueyan's command, they each looked at the river separately.

At this time, Zhu Xueyan and her subordinates would not know that the "prophecy" of the stone was only half right.

Although Zhu Xueyan and her five subordinates were nervous for a while, until Huang Shulan's boat and her boat docked at Chaotianmen Wharf, there was nothing unusual.

Just when Zhu Xueyan breathed a sigh of relief, Huang Shulan did not feel the slightest relief.

When he came ashore, the first thing he did was to buy cigarette paste for his father, but the servants searched all the towns on the docks, but could not find a single tobacco shop. After inquiring, I learned that because the new Sichuan political envoy Ding Zhihuang strictly banned smoking as soon as he took office, all the tobacco houses at Chaotianmen Wharf were banned, and there was no place to buy cigarettes.

Huang Shulan was really anxious this time, but fortunately, the official who came with him told him that he would take a mountain path from here to a nearby market town, where he could buy cigarette paste in the black market. It's just that the path is a little difficult to walk, and you have to have a guide to lead the way. At that moment, Huangshu Orchid hired two local guides to lead the way and took the family to the path. And the two officials knew that he was going to buy cigarette paste, so they deliberately avoided it, did not go with them, but took the main road and went to Chengdu to report to Ding Zhihuang first.

Of course, Zhu Xueyan and her subordinates didn't know the reason why Huang Shulan changed to the path, and as secret protectors, they could only follow the path.

Mountains, stone paths.

I don't know that the cliffs have been thousands and hundreds of years old, and the black and swarthy ground is like a steel cast, and it is built layer by layer. A mountain trail under the cliff spirals into the ridge, the sound of water under the shrub dwarf tree on the right side is bursting, it is a small river, the opposite side of the small river is a miscellaneous forest, there are trees and bamboos, jagged and dense, the green leaves are clear and green.

The river is not very big, but because of the rain just two days ago, the current is much faster than usual, and the waves on the river almost touch the deck of the erected bamboo bridge.

Huang Shulan lifted the sedan curtain and looked to the left, until the top was more than hundreds of zhang high, and she had to poke her head out to look up to see the top of the mountain, coupled with the bumps of the car, it really made people feel dizzy.

The cliff slopes outward the higher it goes, and the uppermost end almost reaches the top of the small river on the right, forming a natural eaves-shaped, and unless it is a strong wind blowing from the opposite forest, it never rains here, so the ground is relatively dry, although it is not all stone roads, and it is not difficult for the carriages and horses to walk, and it is very brisk to turn onto the winding mountain road.

Huang Shulan turned to the other side, looking at the stream and the various flowers and trees growing along the sloping riverbank, and it was inevitable that she would be sleepy after sitting in the car for a long time. Huang Shulan looked boredly at the grass and dwarf trees falling downstream on the river bank, and there were some discounted branches and fallen leaves: "The rain in the first two days seems to be not small!" He muttered a yawn.

At this time, Huang Shulan didn't know that now his every move was watched by the two people on the mountain.

Chiho Kirino put down the telescope in her hand and gestured to Lin Yiqing in the distance.

Lin Yiqing quietly poked his head and saw a team of cars and horses walking slowly on the mountain path in the distance.

At this time, all preparations were ready to stop, and all the blasting packs had been filled into the stone cave that Yusaku Uehara had hewn and connected with medicines. Lin Yiqing estimated the speed of the target, turned around and came to the back of the rock, counted the time, and then lit the medicine minoru.

After igniting the medicine, Lin Yiqing beckoned to Chiho Kirino, who understood, like a light deer, and came to his side in a few steps, Lin Yiqing pulled her into the dense forest behind her—this was a necessary measure to prevent the landslide from hurting herself.

Just after the convoy of Huang Shulan's family all entered the cliff. Gunpowder Minoru ignited the buried high-energy explosives from both the front and back directions, and with a thunderclap, countless grinding stones, the size of a grinding plate, fell into the air, and finally half of the mountain collapsed, burying everything on the mountain road alive underneath.

Yusaku Uehara stood on a hillside with a package on his back, barely believing his eyes as he watched the horrific scene in the distance.

Yusaku Uehara, who was originally in ambush on the main road, knew that the teacher's judgment was correct and his own judgment was wrong when he saw two officials on horseback galloping past.

Worried that there would not be enough explosives for the ambush on the road, he hurriedly dismantled the arrangement on the main road, reloaded the explosives and medicine into the package, and hurried back.

At this moment, there were several muffled explosions, followed by a loud rumbling sound, and the entire mountain collapsed. Stones of all sizes fell down. Some big stones smashed on the ground "clattered" and rushed straight into the forest like wild boars, and the branches and bamboos that were hit by the kara were broken one after another, and the forest was smashed down with a sigh.

Yusaku Uehara saw with his own eyes that boulders rolled down, completely flattening the wagons and the people accompanying them on the mountain trails.

I remember how when he was a child, he crushed ants and bugs with pebbles. It's just that at that time, he didn't think that one day he would set an explosive trap with his own hands, and see the people in the trap like ants, crushed by boulders!

At this time, the overwhelming dust rolled in, fascinating Uehara Yusaku's eyes, and when the strong smell of dust gradually faded, Uehara Yusaku had become a dusty figurine, standing there in a daze, looking at the place that turned out to be a steep and towering dangerous peak, and could no longer make a sound.

In just an instant, the towering cliff turned into a mountain made of boulders, and the place that was originally a road became a part of the mountain, and in the dust, Huang Shulan's family was gone, not only that, but the entire mountain road and river were gone.

The entire cliff collapsed completely, the thick dust dispersed, the stream was blocked, the road was no longer there, and the place where the Huang family was located became a grave made of stone. Yusaku Uehara saw that there was not a single living thing to be seen, except for the boulder that had smashed into the ground squeezing the head of a dead horse, which was raised weakly.

Is this my masterpiece? Did I pass the exam? Yusaku Uehara asked himself.
