Chapter Twenty-Eight: Brothers, Women, and Secrets

The stars and moon are hazy, and the sky and the earth are silent.

The robbery that quietly arose but failed miserably, like a stone being hastily thrown into the still water of the Nanya Prison, after helplessly splashing a few waves, it gradually returned to its former tranquility. The fire in the northeast corner of the government had just been extinguished, and a group of people were shouting to save their belongings and count the damage, shuttling through the narrow alleys around them, so busy that no one noticed the abnormality of the prison. Even if someone heard the rapid sound of the bell before and the chaotic drum later, it was only the residents who were nearby who saw the smoke of the fire and shouted everywhere to put out the fire.

The masked man dressed in black, although he did not deliberately blend his body into the darkness, still did not have the slightest intention of taking off the mask. He stood there and took a deep breath, the air was filled with a faint sweet smell, the smell of blood was so familiar that it didn't cause him the slightest discomfort. He stuck the long knife diagonally on the ground, held his elbow and rotated it vigorously, and the dislocated joint was reset with a "click", and only then did a "hiss" sound emerge from between his teeth, which seemed extremely painful.

Recalling the battle just now, he seized the opportunity by waiting for work, or relying on the advantage in weapons, but he was still forced by the other party to be in a hurry, so that he fell into danger and almost capsized in the gutter. The masked man was quite dissatisfied with himself, he lifted the corner of the mask, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth vigorously, and spat on the ground in annoyance.

The rivers and lakes are really too sinister. Unlike fighting on the battlefield, relying on heroism and fighting for blood bravery, how can there be these ghosts and calculations.

However, although the leader of the men in black is cunning and ruthless, he did not expect that he is also a strong man who would rather die than surrender. The people of the Tang Dynasty are brave and brave, and they admire those who are loyal to the festival of death the most, so despite being on both sides of the hostile side, the leader of the men in black has won the respect of the masked man for this alone. He sighed, crouched down, and slowly but solemnly closed his eyes for the leader of the men in black, and then groped around the corpse to examine it. Sure enough, nothing of value was found.

The masked man ran to the back of several corpses and searched carefully, but still found nothing.

This is not surprising, judging by their demeanor and dress, they are either dead soldiers raised in the mansions of wealthy families, or assassin killers who walk in the dark world. It's just that no matter which one you do, you will do something that is not visible, and all the information will be deliberately cleared before each action, and you will not carry any recognizable objects with you.

Damn, let you rob the prison.

He pursed his lips, thinking to himself that there were a lot of people in this world who wanted Li Chengyang to die quickly, how could anyone really think about saving him.

The masked man shook his head, there are some things that he can't think through for a while, so don't rush to think about them. He turned around and picked up the long knife on the ground, and before he walked back into the darkness, he looked at the cell not far away that was still lit, and took a sip with a smile, thinking that these people were really wolf-hearted, Lao Tzu's hand was about to be broken just now, and no one came out to care.

——————

"Lao Li, talent."

The solitary cell was so cramped that the makeshift quadrangular tables took up a lot of space. Jiang Li, who was sitting in the innermost part, scratched his ears and cheeks, listening to the movement outside, he wanted to run out to see the excitement several times, but he was held down by several people, and he couldn't really turn it out of anyone's head, so he had to sit at the table with a sad expression, absentmindedly holding chopsticks and pulling the wine and food in front of him, hoping to be able to take a glimpse of the big scene outside through the gap in the hidden door, and it was good to relieve his hunger.

It's a pity that the inside of the house is bright, and the outside of the house is dark, and it is even more difficult to see the outside in comparison. I could only prick up my ears helplessly, and heard the sound outside gradually quiet, until I returned to silence, and I was sure that all the thieves who were attacking had been annihilated, and I couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Li Xinglin, who was sitting opposite.

I can't talk about admiration, but I really admire it.

In Jiang Li's heart, Lao Li, a nerd, has the ability to coax women to write articles, and he may also have the ability to manage political affairs and appease the people, but this person who fights in battle with real knives and guns, I am afraid that this weak scholar will be scared to pee his pants on the spot when he sees a little blood. originally thought that Dong Ru fooled himself into doing his best for Lao Li, but Jiang Li never thought that this little white face full of moral articles would dig a big hole under his nose without saying a word, and he didn't need to make a move at all, so he buried this team.

Sure enough, this guy looked harmless like a white rabbit, and he really had a bad stomach inside.

"Well, it's a little bit of arrangement, see you and laugh." Li Xinglin hummed lightly and said modestly.

Jiang Li was really a little admired, but at this moment, seeing the corners of the city lord's mouth twitching, his expression was strange, and he was obviously very proud in his heart, but he had to pretend to be a master with a light breeze in his chest, and he couldn't help but secretly despise it in his heart. When I saw Dong Ru busy sandwiching meat and vegetables into her husband's bowl, the admiration and worship in her eyes were about to overflow, and when I saw that expression, I almost said "Husband is hard, husband, you are so powerful".

Jiang Wei felt a chill at the head, thinking that this was really not a family, and he would not enter the door.

On the other side, Yu Haoxin poured himself a drink and was not happy, and swore that he would never drink too much by gambling curses, and then he took out the wine glass from under Dong Ru's eyelids, and he was already three points drunk at this moment. He doesn't drink much, but when he is in the mood, he likes to drink empty mouths and not touch a bite of food, so he gets drunk faster. He listened to the conversation between the two, and didn't know if it really aroused interest, or if he felt that he had to do something to prove that he was awake, so he turned his head and asked, "What is arranged?" Say...... Say, listen, listen. ”

Dong Ru glared at him angrily, his tongue was hard, and he was embarrassed to swear that he would never drink too much. Fortunately, at this moment, her mood was completely on her wishful husband, and she decided not to worry about this little drunkard for the time being.

However, Li Xinglin was proud, brushed the few sparse strands of beard under his chin, and looked at Yu Haoxin's eyes with a little more praise, this little drunkard is on the road. He is not good at drinking, but this time he picked up the wine glass in front of him very happily, took the initiative to touch Yu Haoxin, raised his neck and drank it all, and then told how he arranged it.

Mo said that Dong Ru's sycophant to his husband was about to shoot to the sky, and Yu Haoxin was there to slap the table loudly with the strength of wine, roaring loudly. Seeing that every time he slapped on the table, the dishes clanged, and he was afraid that Yu Haoxin would not be able to hold it back, and the square table that he had found temporarily collapsed. Dong Ruxing's eyes were round, and she was about to say a thing or two, when she caught a glimpse of her husband Jun Yangyang who was obviously very used, the two pushed the cup and changed the lamp and talked very happily, and after drinking, they actually hooked their shoulders and said their own words, and couldn't help but smile, and decided not to pretend to be the disgusting woman, but was very busy pouring wine with cloth and vegetables.

However, Jiang Li was greatly amazed, thinking that it would take many crossbowmen to fall such a rain of arrows, and he couldn't help but wonder, "I haven't seen so many people in the daytime, where did you get so many crossbowmen, Lao Li." ”

"That's really a top secret, can't say, can't say." Li Xinglin, who had three cups and two stomachs, was full of crimson, and then remembered his boasting under the smugness for a while, although it was generally so, there were some arrangements that were indeed inhumane, I thought that these contents would be lightly brushed aside, but he never thought that Jiang Li would find out and focus on questioning, he was not good at lying, so he could only shake his hand again and again, while picking up the wine jug and filling the wine glass in front of Jiang Li, hoping that the young man would drink a few more glasses, maybe he would be able to forget about it.

However, Yu Hao laughed, stood up and patted Li Xinglin's back, pointed to the tip of his nose with the other hand, and signaled in an extremely determined voice, "Your brother! ”

Before being slapped away by Cao Ru, he turned around and pointed at Cao Ru again, and said, "Your wife!" ”

He shook to Jiang Li's side step by step, and before he could speak, he first burped, and while Jiang Li covered his nose with disgust, he patted Jiang Li's shoulder hard, and laughed, "This is a nephew and a brother." ”

Jiang Li shrugged his shoulders and kept rolling his eyes, saying in his heart that this guy was drunk like this, and it was rare that he could still remember this uncle and nephew story. It's a pity that Yu Haoxin is good at everything, but he doesn't drink lightly or heavily, his hands are heavy, and it hurts a lot on his shoulder. was thinking about pulling this guy away, but saw that Yu Haoxin had already returned to Li Xinglin's side, and said with a flattering face, "So, tell me, what secret." ”

Li Xinglin, who didn't know how many cups he had drunk, happily picked up the cup that had just been poured in front of him, saluted Yu Haoxin in the air, and snorted, only then did he make sure that he was indeed a relative in the direction that Yu Haoxin pointed to, and then he was very relieved but slightly embarrassed and said, "Actually, it's nothing surprising, it's just a trial of a batch of chain ballistas, well, that's it." ”

Everyone was stunned, even Dong Ru, who had bright eyes, blinked his eyes again and again, and said in his heart What kind of serial ballista is outstanding, and what kind of top secret can it be called, be careful that the baby looks like this.

Li Xinglin, who had made up his mind to keep the secret, saw that everyone looked disappreciative and was greatly disappointed, so he lowered his voice, widened his eyes and patiently explained: "What do you think the war really depends on?" Logistics and equipment, this thing can send 20 crossbow arrows at a time, a big killing weapon, but it is several times more than the current repeater. When it becomes large-scale in the future, it will be distributed to the front line, and it will definitely be able to catch Northern Qi off guard. ”

"This is the top secret of my Datang, and the drawings are sealed in the Armament Department of the Ministry of Industry, and they are listed as Tianzi A and other secrets. Under heavy guards, not even a single mouse can get in. Li Xinglin looked around cautiously, motioned for the three of them to come over, and then said softly in an extremely subtle voice, "I got a drawing, tried it secretly, and it turned out to be true!" ”
