Chapter 564: The Sword Sect's Plan
Sword Sect, inside the Sword Pavilion, Bai Chongjiu listened to the news reported by his subordinates, and his expression was flat.
"Sect Master, it's the flood season right now, the water of the Rootless River is rising every day, and if the embankment on the north bank is dug up, the water will rush directly to the hinterland of Shandong Road, but this is the policy. ”
Bai Chongjiu looked at the deacon in front of him and said lightly, "How about this strategy?"
The deacon swallowed his spit a little frightened: "The subordinates are talkative, although we have hoarded food, but Dasheng has the Northern Plains, especially Star City, which means that they will definitely not be short of food." ”
Bai Chongjiu snorted coldly: "Hmph! What if there is no food in Beiyuan?"
The deacon was startled and seemed to think of something.
Bai Chongjiu finally said coldly: "Do what you should do, don't think about other things." ”
The deacon bowed his head and clenched his fists and left.
At this moment, Tongcheng, the transshipment place of grain in the northern plains, is crowded. Grain merchants from all over the country flocked here, and the people sent by Su Daosan and Shi Yunjie bought grain from Beiyuan, and then transferred it to Tongcheng to be regarded as a business. Next, the grain merchants from all over the country licked their faces, bought grain from the stewards who were in charge of grain trading under the two people, and then transferred it to warehouses in various places for storage.
Nowadays, it is already the rainy season, and around the city, there is only the road to the southeast to Shandong Road, and to the west, it is the garrison area of Xiaogushan.
Bai Ling sat in an inn with a hat and four swordsmen. There are many merchants here, and there are naturally many scattered repairs, whether it is a large number of escorts of grain and grass, or the travel of merchants, they need bodyguards, and naturally no one notices the five people. At most, curiosity and a few more glances, after all, judging by the clothes, they are all women.
"Lan Shao, have you found the location of several large granaries?"
Lan Shao nodded, and said with some complaint: "These things can be done by letting the deacons find a few casual cultivators, but I don't know why the sect master let us come." ”
Bai Ling pressed his hand on Lan Shao's arm and comforted: "Grandpa must have his plans, maybe he is afraid that he will leak the news or be targeted by the golden knife guards." ”
When it came to the Golden Sword Guard, Lan Shao and the others were all disdainful.
Zijing said even more disdainfully: "The name of the current golden sword guard is loud, and he looks like a dog in clothes, but he can be combative, tsk." ”
Lan Shao smiled: "You can just steal the fun! Now it is Huang Ke's useless old thing in power, if Zhou Zhe is in power, it will not be so comfortable." ”
Bai Ling heard Zhou Zhe's name, although she was the core, the granddaughter of the Sword Sect Sect Leader Bai Chongjiu, and the sister of Bai Shanshui, but for the team, she still respectfully called Lan Shao her sister, for no other reason, Lan Shao's resourcefulness was outstanding, and she was not comparable.
"Sister Lan Shao, you say, is Zhou Zhe really so capable? and my brother. ”
Lan Shao shook his head and said: "Zhou Zhe is the only one I have ever seen who has a head-to-head confrontation with the mountains and rivers without falling behind, he is alone, from a farmer in a small mountain village, to the position of a loyal and brave marquis who has the power in the world, he can be called a carp jumping over the dragon gate, if it were not for the emperor's suspicion." Perhaps, we are already trapped in the Sword Sect and cannot move. You won't want to have another encounter with him, this man. ”
Lan Peony didn't know how to describe it, and in the end, she used one word: "It's too weird." ”
"What's weird?"
Bai Ling remembered the pursuit battle in the desert, all the people from the four major factions arrived, and finally watched Zhou Zhe open the secret realm passage in front of their eyes and leave, and even, if he had a helper, the people of the four major factions would be able to fold into a lot. If you think about the things in Qiankun Gate before, you can understand that the battle group of Qiankun Gate has suffered heavy losses, and even in the cold generation, the only remaining masters are only enough for three spare.
Although the major factions are full of talents, they can't prepare for such killings.
The conversation at the dinner table did not last long, and several people entered the private room by themselves.
In the middle of the night, Su Daosan's housekeeper was sent back, he was helping Su Daosan to do grain trading, someone asked him, naturally he wanted to be entertained, the dazed Su housekeeper was just sent back to the wing, he felt that he had to get up at night, stumbled into the thatched house and came out again, but saw the lights of the next wing room on.
Curious, he poked open the window paper with his fingers, and when he saw that there was no one in the room, and the clothes placed on the table were obviously women's underwear.
It is said that wine is bold and courageous, not to mention a housekeeper with an unusual status like him, he can't see people left and right, and when he gets closer, he finds that the other rooms are the same, the lights are still on, but the people are gone.
Steward Su was curious, quietly entered the door, and immediately smelled a fragrance, which was the fragrance of soap that only the noblewomen had money to consume in Beijing. This suddenly made him curious? Here, which other young lady can't make it.
Looking at the pink belly pocket at the head of the bed, Steward Su's heart grew, and he picked it up and played with it for a while and put it in his pocket. Then, somehow, the wine was so strong that he fell asleep leaning on the edge of the bed.
At this moment, the Four Swordsmen and the White Spirit Imperial Sword went out, and in the dark night, who would find the five black shadows in the sky?
One by one, the oil canisters landed accurately on the open-air grain stomping. Then, several people looked at each other in the air, and dispersed, Bai Ling finally left, and when he reached the limit distance of control, he stretched out his five fingers, and the yang talisman sticker on the oil tank exploded.
"Boom!"
Almost at the same time, countless grain tramples burned directly, and the fire soared into the sky, and the entire city was reflected as if it were day.
"Walk the water, go to the water!" shouted everywhere, but this kind of scene of burning tens of millions of catties of grain together can be extinguished by water, unless the entire city is thrown into the sea, otherwise, how can it be extinguished. You must know that Su Daosan's grain and grass camp has millions of catties of grain, and he put out the fire in time, and he didn't leave much, let alone here?
When Steward Su's steward in charge of the granary saw the fire, he immediately asked his subordinates to inform Steward Su that the situation was out of control at the moment, and someone had to make a decision.
When the guy arrived at the inn, he pushed open the door of Steward Su, and there was no one to be seen. The man was not a bold man, but he shouted a few times and did not hear an answer, so he went to the steward again to reply. How could he know that in the wing room next door, Steward Su was sleeping soundly!
The fire was already on fire outside, and Bai Ling and the Four Swordsmen returned to the second floor wing of the inn again.
You Luo said with excitement: "Sister Bailing was awesome just now, and she directly ignited the fire. ”
Lan Shao glanced at the ghost basket with disgust: "Be quiet, the wall has ears." Yu Luo stuck out his tongue and said no more.
Controlling hundreds of oil canisters at one time to activate at the same time, and flying for so long, Bai Ling was already a little tired. But as soon as she returned to the house, she was dumbfounded at the sight of the drunkard sleeping on the edge of her bed.
"Ahh
"He~~ Him. He!" Bai Ling's face was angry, his sleeping posture was grinning, and Steward Su, who still had a pink belly pocket in his arms, also woke up at this moment, and suddenly five big beauties appeared in front of him, and the hara that he had already dripped suddenly dripped onto his belly pocket. His eyes looked at the five beauties in front of him even more obscenely, thinking to himself, it's good to dream.
At this moment, Bai Ling felt the mountain collapse and the ground cracked, as if the hara was dripping on her chest.
Losing her mind, she shouted angrily: "I'll kill you." ”
Lan Shao didn't have time to stop it, the killing was over, the flying sword flew back to Bai Ling's waist again, and then looked at the belly pocket that was already dripping blood, she was so angry that she could barely control her emotions.
At this moment, the men and stewards who had been looking for Steward Su returned to the inn again. Hearing the angry shouts from upstairs, he hurriedly ran over.
When I got upstairs, I saw Steward Su lying in a pool of blood and the five women beside him.
"Who are you?" the steward shouted, only thinking that these in front of him were some kind of loose cultivation or where he invited to serve Steward Su, and he thought that a loud shout would scare them away.
As a result, this was just a flying sword cutting throat.
The shopkeeper was startled, and immediately hid under the counter, he was an old internal guard, who had not been helped by Zhou Zhe, the Marquis of Zhongyong, and now managed the inn here, doing daily reports. Originally, he was very confused about the identities of these people, but this time, he was almost sure.
The second floor was killed, Lan Shao glanced at the shopkeeper who was trembling with fear on the first floor and the shopkeeper hiding under the counter, and did not do it again, who knows how many golden sword guards and how many royal forest soldiers are in the city, in case they are provoked, their identities will be exposed.
"Without further ado, miss, let's leave by night. ”
Lan Shao suggested, Bai Ling also knew, and she waved her hand casually. The oil lamp on the side fell directly on Steward Su's body, and the bloodstained belly pocket on his body began to burn.
Bai Ling glanced at it hatefully, and then he and the four swordsmen took off again, flying directly out of the city through the window.
As soon as he came out of the window, his body shook and almost fell, the smoke outside was already filled, and the grain stomping of the entire city was burning, how could the core area be fully burned, and at this moment in the city, there was thick smoke everywhere. Fortunately, Lan Shao on the side took a slow step and held it in his hand.
And it was just this moment that Bai Ling's sword-shaped pendant, which symbolized the identity of the core disciple of the Sword Sect, fell into the courtyard downstairs.
The shopkeeper hid under the counter, listened to the movement upstairs and the sound of falling metal in the yard, cautiously poked his head out, picked up the pendant, and suddenly looked shocked.
Looking up again, the smoke was in the air, and the five figures flew away, and they immediately guessed that the fire in the city might have nothing to do with them.
If Tongcheng took Xiaogu Mountain, it was actually only a few days away from the capital, and the news quickly reached Huang Ke's hands.
Originally, at this juncture, it was to prepare food and have a fight with the group of people in Hexi, but now it's okay, the fire in Tongcheng has directly lit the grain sold in Beiyuan, which makes the situation more complicated in the middle of the court.
Huang naturally reported it, the matter involved the core of the Sword Sect, but Huang didn't dare to be careless, although there was no certificate, no one saw them set fire. It can only be summed up in two words: suspicious.
And the identified Su Daosan's housekeeper appeared in Tongcheng, but it was covered up by Huang, not because of anything else, the resale of grain can indeed make Su Daosan, who had just returned to the capital and was reprimanded by the emperor, unable to eat and walk around, but the problem is that without Li You's approval, how could Su Daosan get food from Beiyuan. When the time comes, isn't it Li You who is unlucky?
Huang was even thinking, this fire in the city, did the Sword Sect calculate that no one would lean on these people and do it on purpose?
Shi Yunjie, who also suffered heavy losses, was also dumb and couldn't say that he and Su Daosan hoarded the little grain, which was originally a hen who made a fortune, and the household department was printing food stamps, when the time came, the future of their rich country was just around the corner, but it was out of this file, and what was even more annoying was that they lost their food, and they didn't dare to say that it was their food.
The external claim only said that the fire in Tongcheng was even more heavy.
For a time, the most powerful people in the entire court, representing the honorable relatives, civil officials and internal servants, were all itchy with their teeth ruthlessly.
