For climbing cliffs, Liu Chang, who grew up in the mountains, can be said to be familiar with the road, and with light work, he is even more like a fish in water.

He told Sun Mo that if he hadn't come up before dark, he would go back to the inn to report the news first, and asked everyone to wait for one more day, and if there was no news from him after a day, he would make plans.

Soon, weighing the dark and misty deep mountain climate, Liu Chang climbed down the stone wall. I was less than halfway up when I noticed a faint light shining from the cliff wall. If you look closer, it turns out that there is a prominent artificially constructed platform.

He listened carefully and felt that there was no one before he jumped off the platform. Looking at the wooden platform under your feet, there is a passage leading to the mountain, which looks like a naturally formed stone chamber.

He carefully walked along the passage without making any sound, and after walking for long, he saw oil lamps lit every few meters on the stone wall. The firelight shone out along the passage, although it was very weak, but because Liu Chang was just close to the artificial platform when he climbed, he would definitely not be able to find it if it was a little farther away, and the fog was obscuring.

Liu Chang continued to walk inside for a while, and the passage came to the end, and in front of him was a huge stone cave. It was filled with all kinds of weapons, including long swords, short knives, bows and arrows, spears, and even bows and crossbows. The categories are stacked to the brim, and they are enough to be used by tens of thousands of horses.

Seeing that there was no one, Liu Chang approached to check on those weapons, and found that the weapons were made with excellent craftsmanship, not even worse than the weapons of the Qin State. It seems that there are people in Shu who are afraid of it. However, just a Feng family, can you easily rebel?

Just as Liu Chang was thinking about the possibility of the Feng family's rebellion, a voice came from another sloping passage on the opposite side of the passage. He quickly held his breath and hid in the dark.

A short time later, several people came in through the passage at the other end. I only heard someone take a long sword and draw it out, gesturing, sending out a sharp sword wind.

"The weapons made this time are more sophisticated, and the master explained that these weapons must be used at the most critical time. Therefore, it must be kept and not moved to the ground for the time being, it is safest to put it here. ”

"Obey the order, at least 50,000 weapons are needed for the remaining weapons, but the raw materials are only enough for three days to build, and if there are no raw materials to send, it may not be possible to continue to complete the remaining tasks."

"This master has asked Feng Shizi to find a way to solve it, in addition to the Badi Dugu family, Feng Shizi also purchased iron ore from other places, although the amount is not as much as the Dugu family, but it can alleviate the shortage of raw materials. In addition, Dugujia will continue to supply soon, but we can't pick up cheap anymore, and we still have to buy it at the original price as before. ”

The men probably had no problem checking the armory, so they walked to the original passage as they spoke.

Liu Chang listened to their conversation, and probably had a bottom in his heart, it turned out that Feng Daicheng still had a master above. He came out of the darkness and walked along the sloping passage for a while, and found that there was no other passage, only one way down.

Not daring to get too close, it took him a moment to feel like he was about to reach the bottom. Because he heard the repeated sound of striking iron, and the temperature of the passage was getting higher and higher, it was clear that the bottom was the den where the weapons were made. Once it's done, it's shipped to the natural weapon pants you just had. Listening to the conversation between those people just now, it seems that a batch of weapons will be transported away after they are built, which is why there is an artificial platform, which is probably from where the weapons are transported to the ground.

Liu Chang continued to slowly approach the bottom, and after he could finally see the situation below clearly, his eyes widened in shock. Below was a larger natural stone cave space than the weapon pants above. They built at least 100 stoves to smelt iron ore.

There are no less than a thousand guards and craftsmen who make weapons. And I saw men continually bringing in iron ore from one import and export to distribute to the craftsmen of the various stoves.

Liu Chang remembered that someone transported iron ore and dansha from the cliff during the day, and now looking at the situation, it turned out that the people below could directly transport the fallen iron ore to it. And it was clear that outside that entrance and exit must be the place where the iron ore fell.

After checking it about the same, Liu Chang didn't stay long and quickly withdrew back. After he went up the cliff, Sun Mo, who was in a hurry, exhaled a big breath, and then the two returned to the city.

Poxi and Duguqing also waited anxiously at the inn for a day, and it was not until dawn that Liu Chang and Sun Mo returned to the inn.

Duguqing was anxious, and when he saw the two of them coming in, he quickly got up and asked, "How is it?" Is there a situation? ”

"Let's drink first."

Liu Chang sat down and wanted to pour the tea by himself, but Poxi poured a cup of tea for him one step ahead of him, poured another cup and said to Sun Mo: "Sun Mo, you can also sit down and drink water." ”

Sun Mo didn't dare to make a mistake, he glanced at Dugu Qing, and Du Qing rolled his eyes: "Can you not keep treating yourself as a slave, you see what I do, let you sit and you will sit." ”

Sun Mo lowered his head and sat down silently. Although Sun Mo has good skills, his family has been born as slaves for several generations. Five years ago, he was almost beaten to death by the main family, and he could have resisted, but his parents were detained by the main family, so he did not dare to resist back. Dugu Qing who was passing by spent a lot of money to redeem himself, and then rescued his parents, and now his parents are in Dugu's house, but because Duguqing is now in charge, as long as he doesn't make mistakes, the living conditions are like heaven.

Because of his gratitude to Wuduguqing, he followed Duguqing to the north and south five years ago, and protected Duguqing with his own martial arts. It's just that his natural servility still makes him occasionally show a submissive attitude, even if Duguqing said thousands of times that he should not treat himself as a slave, and follow her to do only a way of living with more work and more rewards, and there is nothing to pay for free.

After seeing that Sun Mo also sat down, Po Xi handed him the teacup. Sun Mo respectfully took the teacup and drank it.

After Liu Chang gasped, he told what he had seen and heard from beginning to end.

After listening to this, Dugu Qing secretly calculated that he had been supplying the Feng family for five years, and there were still a lot of them. From this point of view, in the past five years, the Feng family has built hundreds of thousands of weapons. But she couldn't figure it out, so many weapons, someone had to use them, didn't she?

"If you have a weapon, what about the person who uses it?" Po Xi raised the question that Duguqing hadn't asked yet.

"Yes, my dear, you thought of going with me. Even if the Feng family can build so many weapons, it means that they still have a large number of soldiers. So where are these people raised? At least you don't usually see so many people and horses being raised. ”

"Is the Feng family a monopoly in Shudi?"

"No, the Feng family can indeed cover the sky with one hand in Shu, but there is also the original Shu Wang family, and now it is Mo Shangxuan who is in charge, and the Feng family has close contacts with the Mo Shang family, which is not a secret in Bashu, it was originally a relationship between monarchs and ministers." Sun Mo, who was born in Bashu, naturally understood the situation better, so he interjected to explain to the other three.

"Ah, by the way, I also heard that there should be a master above in their conversation, but you can imagine that the master is in Shu, who else is there besides the king of Shu?" Liu Chang patted the desk, and his eyes were full of interest.

Po Xi still listened to everyone's analysis with a quiet expression, and also had doubts about that Mo Shangxuan in his heart, so he asked Dugu Qingdao: "Sister Qing has ever come into contact with this Mo Shangxuan?" ”

"I've never been in contact with him, but if I want to contact him, I can ask someone for help, it's a bit of a struggle."

"Who?"

"The ruler of Badi, Xuanyuan Daokang, which means the same as Mo Shangxuan's status, the two of them have always had dealings. According to his own words, his ancestors were made princes by Xia Zi when he was in the Xia Dynasty, and he has been in charge of Badi since then, until King Qin Huiwen, the ancestor of the winning government, beat the two countries of Bashu and merged them together and belonged to the Qin State. ”

"Why don't you always shy away from calling King Qin's name at all, aren't you afraid of death?"

Liu Chang was unhappy with Duguqing's disrespect for winning politics again. If he hadn't known that she hadn't had malicious intent, he really suspected that this woman had borrowed courage from heaven.

"Look, you're here again, King Qin is not here, you have nothing to do with him, you are at most one of the tens of millions of people who win the government, I call him by name, and he won't lose a piece of meat, what are you anxious about for him?"

"His meat must not be less, but if you call King Qin's name directly, he has a lot of meat, and mine will be less, you be careful that I am not polite to you." Liu Chang's tone rose a lot this time, and he looked really angry.

"Okay, okay, I know, I won't irritate you, I will call him King Qin in the future, okay?" Dugu Liquidation understands that Yingzheng is so tall in the eyes of his people, it seems that the history books are not credible. Seeing that Liu Chang was a little less angry, he said again: "Another day, if I see Win... Uh, no, it's King Qin, I must tell him that he has a people who treat him like a god, and I think King Qin will reward you for your loyalty, hehehe. ”

"......" Liu Chang couldn't get out of his breath, he didn't know what to say, and thought to himself, when Duguqing saw King Qin, he didn't know who would help who to speak.

Duguqing looked at Liu Chang with a helpless look on his face, thinking about it, you can't call people indiscriminately these days, especially the king who is so high. It's just that sometimes I always react with the original instinctive way of speaking, so naturally I don't shy away from it so much.

"Uncle, Sister Qing must be casual, I don't think there is anything disrespectful, and these are trivial things. Now that we have discovered the potential conspiracy of Shu by mistake, we might as well see if we can help King Qin solve the hidden danger by the way, this is really helping King Qin. Knowing that Liu Chang has always regarded Brother Zheng more seriously than himself, Poxi understands it in his heart, so he softly comforted Liu Chang.

"Since she promised not to call King Qin's name again, I naturally have nothing to worry about"

"Okay, this is all a trivial matter, we just found out about such a shocking thing, we can't startle the snake, but also have to find a way to let King Qin know." Dugu Qing habitually pursed his lips and twisted his chat left and right: "It's just that King Qin is hanging in the sky, how can he get it?" ”

"Miss, isn't King Xuanyuan able to go to Xianyang? You can ask him to help with this. Sun Mo suggested.

"Yes, this can be had, this is the most direct way."

"Sister Qing, how can I see that the King of Xuanyuan of Badi is not involved, doesn't it mean that the kings of Bashu and Shu have dealings" Poxi has always been delicate, if Shu has a rebellious heart, Badi and Shu have a cold relationship, whether it is led by the Feng family or Mo Shangxuan, Shu will be alone and rebellious, or is it really irrelevant?

"Uh... I didn't think about this so much, I just think that Xuanyuan Daokang is quite a peaceful person, but you are right, this is complicated, and I dare not guarantee that King Xuanyuan of Badi is innocent. If he had been involved, wouldn't I have asked him to help announce that their plans had been made known. The result is either to stimulate them to rebel in advance, or to kill us first, and we will die no matter how we do it. ”

"Sister Qing is right, so none of us can say that static braking is what we should do at the moment, just ......" Po Xi smiled: "I also need Sister Qing to find a way to get King Ba and King Shu together, and then find an opportunity to introduce me to meet them, and I am also happy to make a few friends in Bashu." ”

"What if there's danger?"

"I just want to see if there are tiger cubs in the tiger's den."

"If so, what can we do?" Duguqing felt that even if she was not afraid of heaven and earth, she would have too much money to use, but if she had to fight with the kings of Bashu and Bashu, this was not her "hometown", rich was the king, and the right was the king in this era. If you can't help Perxi, and you put yourself in it, it will be a loss.

"Sister Qing, don't worry, I won't bother you, when the time comes, I will naturally have a way to solve it."

"What do you say, I'm not afraid of any involvement, I just think that if you are in danger, I, the person who connects the bridge, must not die of guilt."

"Then Sister Qing doesn't have to worry, it's me who asked Sister Qing for help, even if something happens, it's not Sister Qing's problem. And if Sister Qing doesn't help, I'll find another way to reach out to them. Even if it has to be more difficult. ”

"Oh, what else can I say if you say that." Duguqing took a sip of the teacup and said, "Okay, my dear, what you want, I can do it, I will definitely help you." What's more, this is a big adventure game, I don't know if I really made a big contribution because of it, and it is logical that I will see the famous win... King Qin. Looking at Liu Chang, Duguqing immediately reacted that he couldn't call King Qin's name.

"Dugu, you want to see King Qin has a great chance, but forget about the rest, I really advise you to change your words quickly, don't call my little fairy anything dear, you will really get into trouble." Liu Chang painstakingly reminded Duguqing of his "presumptuousness" again.

"It's easy to say anything else, don't ask me for this, I call it this to comfort myself, you don't understand!"

Hey, Liu Chang sighed secretly, and didn't bother to say more, hoping that if the king heard it one day, he wouldn't be too angry.

Poxi's name for Duguqing was a little strange and strange at first, but he didn't feel inappropriate. In the past few days, I have heard too much but felt cordial, and I like to get along with Duguqing, looking at Liu Chang's helpless expression, she knows what it means. Thinking about it, if one day Brother Zheng is really unhappy when he hears this title, he will open up for her sake.

Next, we should be concerned about how to investigate the rebellion of Bashu, and also find out where the poison eaten by the assassin who killed my mother came from Bashu, as long as the source of the poison is found, it will probably not be far from the truth that my mother was killed.
