Chapter 57: My son has no regrets
Even if there were oil shops, wineries, and charcoal shops in the city, the buildings were all wooden structures, and it was a big project to burn down a city with manpower alone, and they had to find as many materials as possible to ignite the fire.
After everyone else left, He Lingchuan killed the horse pistol, turned back to the Zhong Mansion, and jumped into an empty room lightly.
The room is not small, with two beds, one large and one small, two stools, and a dresser.
After Sun Guoshi cast the arrow, He Lingchuan took advantage of his efforts to gather his companions, and had already taken a turn in this official house and looked around.
He Lingchuan didn't find any useful clues at that time, but after everyone discussed it for a while, he suddenly wanted to come and see it again.
Each set of official residences is small in size and simple in function, which is a place to eat, live and sleep. Then this room should be the bedroom of Zhong Shengguang and his wife.
The bedding on the big bed was clean, the bedding was neatly folded, and there was a treasure knife hanging on the wall at the head of the bed.
Hanging the murderous soldier at the head of his and his wife's bed, probably only the fierce man who governs the army can do it, and this small bed on the side-
It should be their daughter Zhong Wuregret.
Because the small bed is only three feet long, an adult can't lie down on his legs. At the head of the bed were small wooden horses and small wooden soldiers wielding wooden swords, and opposite them were cloth tigers that looked a little fierce.
No, it's a cloth leopard, made in the image of a sand leopard, with round spots like a sand leopard.
It's a story when you put it there.
He picked it up and saw that there were a few small words embroidered on the belly of the leopard:
I have no regrets.
At the foot of the bed, there is also a small rag doll.
He Lingchuan walked to the side of the big bed, and there was a set of gouache and a copper mirror on the dresser, neatly arranged.
He picked it up one by one and examined it, and found that there was a comb stuck in the back of the bronze mirror, which was actually a suit.
This is? His eyes lit up, he picked up the comb and looked at the light, and muttered, "So it's here." ”
This is a simple wooden comb, with a simple form and a single function, only a small light blue flower is painted on the comb head.
The pigment is made from a fine powder made from shellfish, which gives it a sky-like blue color.
Just by virtue of this flower ornament, He Lingchuan can determine that in the past, Panlong City was broken, and the owner token taken away by the sand leopard was this one!
It is also it that has made the He family and the Great Sima Mansion tie up.
It's just that half of the comb hasn't been burned yet.
"Zhong Shengguang's wife died soon after giving birth, and he really collected this comb as a souvenir." He Lingchuan looked at the cot and said to himself, "No, Zhong Wuregret has not yet come to life at this time, Zhong Shengguang didn't know that his wife would give birth to a boy or a girl, but he had already prepared a crib." ”
Otherwise, Commander Zhong would not have put a few boys' toys at the head of the child's bed, as if he had cut them himself.
"It was probably the happiest time of his life." There is hope in the career, and the wife is about to give birth.
He opened the dark compartment of the dresser with his hand, there were several pieces of jewelry in it, and the materials were very ordinary, but He Lingchuan's eyes swept over one of the objects and froze.
This is a necklace, a crescent-shaped pendant.
It looks so familiar, He Lingchuan subconsciously pulled out the necklace around his neck.
It's just the same thing! It's just that one is in fantasy, the other is in reality, and even the appearance has changed.
In other words, before his daughter was born, Zhong Shengguang was the owner of this hanging god bone necklace.
He Lingchuan realized something, carefully put the comb back in its place, and exited the room.
He had just walked out of the official residence when he saw a man standing outside.
Hairy peach.
He Lingchuan was startled, and couldn't help but scold: "Don't say a word, are you scared?" ”
"Da Shao, I'll go with you, I'll do all the work." Mao Tao accompanied the smiling face, "It seems that there are always people secretly spying on me and trying to take advantage of my loneliness." ”
"Even if there were, it wasn't human." He Lingchuan did not refuse. He also has that feeling of a thorn in his back, and it is indeed safer for the two to walk together. Mao Tao stretched out his hand and pointed, "I remember that there is a very large restaurant there." ”
He Lingchuan glanced back at Zhong Zhai: "It's too close here, leave it for the city's head ordnance." Let's go into the distance. ”
Both of them will do some kung fu, and they will run all the way when they are angry.
After two quarters of an hour, the road became narrower and narrower, the buildings on the roadside became more and more sparse, and the large commercial storage warehouses, post stations, and even the barn floor appeared.
This kind of place is far from any city gate, and even if the armor at the head of the city can still be obtained, it does not have the effect of igniting in pieces.
It's up to manpower.
The two went into a winery, found the unloading cart to load a dozen jars of old wine, and dismantled two pleasing pieces of wood to make torches, and then pulled the wine out.
Burn all the way and spill wine on wood, quilts, thatch, or everything else combustible.
In this way, after walking for several miles, I turned back, only to see the flames soaring into the sky.
Mao Tao pointed to the west: "There is black smoke in the sky, and it seems that the national teacher is also working hard." ”
He Lingchuan only glanced at it, and then continued to work: "It seems that there is no point there. ”
Mao Taoqi said: "The point? What's the point? ”
"We decided to burn down the whole city, just because we couldn't find the key point to break the game, so we had to rely on this kind of stupid work. Otherwise, a fire crossbow will be enough. He Lingchuan's mind was very clear, "On the other hand, it is useless to burn other places, only by burning to the key point, this illusion can be lifted." ”
Mao Tao shook her hand and sighed: "How long will this take?" "He was tired because He Lingchuan asked him to act as a donkey pulling the cart.
Even if it's a real donkey, pulling a cart full of wine jars and walking ten miles, you're going to be tired and burp.
Burning a city made him feel numb just thinking about it.
"You should be happy." He Lingchuan said gloomily, "That breaking point is not in the area we are responsible for, it is a blessing that you have cultivated in your previous life." Think about the fate of Taubo, the consequences of the rupture of the illusion, can you afford it? ”
In the end, Taub's fate was not much friendlier than that of the team, and there were no bones left. Mao Tao shuddered: "Then let's go and meet the national teacher as soon as possible." ”
He Lingchuan smiled: "Thanks to you, it wasn't completed so quickly." ”
Because Mao Tao slipped to him, the entire northern part of Panlong City has not been burned. "Now you can tell me, what the hell are you doing with me?"
Mao Tao was stunned: "I, I'm just afraid." ”
He Lingchuan didn't bother to say to him more: "Go back to the north." ”
"Don't, I say! I just didn't think about it. Mao Tao wiped her sweat with a towel, "Fang Cai Guoshi looked at Tao Bo's codex, he didn't know, in fact, I lived in the copper city of Baling Country for twelve years before following Situ Boss, and I also went to school, until my stepfather was killed in business......"
"Stop, get to the point!"
“…… I can understand a little bit of Baling. ”
He Lingchuan stopped: "What is the national teacher hiding?" ”
He knew that this old man was hiding private goods!
