Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Yellow Sparrow Without the Praying Mantis
It's no wonder that Li Xinglin is mysterious but proud.
In order to verify the authenticity of these drawings without being detected, he really took great pains. First of all, it took several days, personally according to the drawings to copy and split into a lot of component drawings, and then carefully divided into the workshops of the local industrial departments to order, several core hubs are personally taken to the workshop to open the mold casting, and then invited the craftsmen and craftsmen of the four miles and eight towns to carefully polish, full of calculations and finally put together ten frames, this time is also the first time to use in actual combat, and the effect is surprisingly good.
After all, this matter is too important, Li Xinglin naturally knows the severity, at this time, in addition to carefully managing the details, he has already burned all the local compositions that were previously decomposed. I wanted to destroy these ten test specimens together, but with the idea of making the best use of them and not using them in vain, I set a trap in Nanshao Prison.
As for how to get the top-secret drawings, let you push the cup and change the lamp to push your heart, Li Xinglin just smiled, and this time he refused to reveal a word.
Fortunately, although everyone is curious, they will not force others to make it difficult, let alone inquire where his drawings are hidden.
The spring night outside the house is warm and cold, sporadic birds cry at night, the house has already drunk three rounds and three rounds, Yu Haoxin likes to drink and get drunk alone, but Li Xinglin is not as happy as everyone else, don't say that Jiang Li can't resist being poured into his stomach I don't know how much, even Dong Ru didn't escape, he was coaxed and tricked into drinking half a cup before he stopped. When the wine is drunk, some people are obsessed with breaking thoughts on the same thing, some people string together countless trivial things and chatter, and some people like to tell boundless stories, but the magic is that no matter how much everyone says that the donkey lips are not the horse's mouth, it does not prevent them from sitting at the same table and telling each other their hearts.
It's not early, after some tossing just now, tonight should end in peace and there will be no more branches, seeing that the food on the table is empty at this moment, and the three of them are exhausted, Dong Ru wants to go back to coax Li Ningjing to sleep. Yu Haoxin looked at the small and shabby bamboo couch in the cell, it was reluctant for one person to be tired and sleeping, how could he not allow the two to sleep together, and the more he looked at it, the more disgusted he became, how to say that he Yu Shaozhuang was also a well-known figure, so he would not fall into the prison to make peace, so he shouted to go back with Cao Ru, but when he thought of going to the west of the city was another good trip, he suddenly frowned.
The four pushed the door open.
The thick dark clouds have long since disappeared, and the unobstructed moon hangs overhead, and the silver-white light sprinkles all over the land, showering the whole world in the bright moonlight. The air was quiet and slightly cool, and there was no smell of fishy smell at this time.
Everyone was stirred by the cool breeze, and the alcohol suddenly decreased a little.
Walking from the cell to the main entrance of the prison needs to go straight through the entire empty courtyard from the center, although it will not stick to the courtyard wall to walk once, but the tragic scene along the way still makes everyone secretly speechless, Rao is no unique opinion on the march and battle, and at this moment finally has a somewhat intuitive understanding of the big killing weapon in Li Xinglin's mouth.
Naturally, a few people don't have any sour and rotten compassion. Jiang Yu and the others were born in sword cultivation, and what they paid attention to was to cut them with a sword when they saw the injustice. Not to mention Li Xinglin, who privately built a ballista, was the initiator of such a murderous situation. Even Dong Ru, as a daughter's family, only frowned slightly when she saw the blood stains all over the ground under the rain of arrows, but she was not surprised at all, let alone put on a look of pity.
Prison robbery is a life-and-death situation, and since I still want to live, I have no choice but to ask you to die.
"Lao Li, why don't I feel like I was sent by the Taishou." Jiang Li walked with his head buried in one step and three times, and he couldn't stick his head on the ground. As he walked on the outermost edge, a little closer to the wall, he had to be extra careful with his step, occasionally jumping over a few crossbow arrows that were scattered a little grossly. I even thought that those arrangements hidden in the dark were not removed, for fear that I would accidentally step on some bells and small drums, so that I would suffer a disaster in vain. While thinking about the Taishou who was so arrogant that he threatened to rob the prison the day before yesterday, he shouldn't be so unhelpful.
Li Xinglin snorted, stopped and looked at it carefully, then nodded, and affirmed, "It is indeed unlikely that it is Wang Taishou's handiwork." ”
has worked together for many years, Li Xinglin also knows a lot about the boss's temperament, and he is not a traitor when he is slick and slick, although he is good at using methods, he is not a ruthless person. If he really came to rob the prison, he would definitely mobilize the resources of all parties and make careful arrangements, so that he would not be so hasty and reckless tonight. What's more, looking at the weapons worn by these men in black, they are either assassins or dead soldiers. Wang Zhi does things for officials, although he can't be said to be upright, after all, he is also following the path of an orthodox scholar, and such a selfish trick as raising a dead soldier really doesn't seem like he can do it.
Jiang Li naturally couldn't say that he was ugly, but he felt so based on his intuition, and there was no evidence to discuss and confirm, so he just took a sip and said with a smile, "This Li Chengyang is very popular, and so many people sacrificed their lives to save him." ”
Seeing the color, the door is full of people. Just with the skin of General Li Zheng's nephew, there are so many people who dig out their minds and don't even want their lives to save him?
Li Xinglin shook his head and said disapprerovingly, "Save him or kill him, but God knows." ”
There is a lot of aftertaste in what I said. Jiang Li's drunkenness had already dispersed at this moment, and when he heard this, he turned around and glanced at Li Xinglin with a suspicious face, as if he wanted to find something out of the face of this black-bellied scholar.
Li Xinglin was a little inexplicably weak by Jiang Li, and took advantage of the cool breeze to quickly cover his mouth and nose, pretending to cough a few times. However, Dong Ru said while walking with a disapproving face, "I heard that this Li Chengyang has traveled extensively, and there are not a few friends and enemies in the three sects and nine streams. ”
While they were talking, they arrived at the door of the prison.
Li Xinglin pointed to the carriage bolted under the tree at the door, patted Yu Haoxin on the shoulder and said, "Haoxin, the coachman is going back, I'm afraid I will bother you to drive Xiaoru back." ”
Sure enough, the things in the cup are the most wonderful, and Yu Shaozhuang, who has been the owner for many days, changed to Haoxin without leaving a trace after a few glasses of wine. Yu Haoxin's face was useful, thinking that he finally didn't have to walk back on two legs, he smiled even more, hurriedly untied the rope, and waited for Cao Ru to get into the carriage.
The wheels are rolling in the moonlight, and they move slowly.
When it came, there were still lanterns shining, but now only the bright moon and sparse stars are left, and the bluestone pavement is paved with a lonely and miserable white. On the long street, only the sound of horses' hooves sounded, crisp but not pleasant, and there were echoes in the deep alleys, which made it more secluded and quiet.
From a house slave carrying a food box, he evolved into a wealthy coachman in one fell swoop, Yu Haoxin, who was complacent, glanced around with some anxiety, the huge street was empty, only saw the projection of the eaves engraved on the stone steps in front of the shop, and saw the shadows of a few willow trees swaggering in boredom, and then was gradually left behind by the carriage that went all the way.
He had just experienced a prison robbery in the dark night, although the owner of Yu Shaozhuang only drank from beginning to end, and did not even bend a finger, it did not prevent him from planting some shadows in his heart, and he always felt that there were some invisible demons and monsters hiding under the shadows of those streets, hiding in the bottomless darkness at the corners and alleys of the streets.
It's a pity that he is not allowed to ride horses on the street, let alone disturb people's dreams in the dead of night, Yu Haoxin can only drive the carriage slowly, listening to the sound of the wheels running over the gap between the bluestone slabs, and the rhythm of the horse's hooves is clear, while secretly putting his right foot on the wheel and stepping on it, putting on the posture that is the easiest to fight or run away.
Dong Ru sat in the carriage, feeling the bumps coming from the car body, and the corner of his mouth still had the quiet and elegant smile of a virtuous housewife, but his two eyes were shining like stars in the night.
——————
East Street North Alley Entrance.
That is, the place where Mr. Yi dipped his hand in tea and drew the fork before, and you can see the main entrance of the prison.
Several people stood on the side of the street, facing the direction of the prison, with different expressions.
Nanji County Shou Wang Zhi did not cultivate, and he couldn't see what was going on in the prison with his eyes alone, so he followed a few glances, and soon gave up, standing aside and admiring the moonlight, occasionally moving his gaze back to the faces of the crowd to look at it a few times, but he was also quite comfortable.
But if you see too much of the unchanged scenery, you will always feel bored, even if you recite all the poems about the breeze and the moon that you have read silently, it will not last much time. No matter how vivid and wonderful those expressions are, after all, there is no narration note, and it is in vain for you to see it in a daze, and you can't read it.
Fortunately, this scene did not last forever. Father-in-law Fu, who had just walked to the middle of the street and glanced at it a few times, sighed, and his hoarse and shrill voice sounded a bit like a night owl crying on the empty street at the moment, which made people shudder.
"That's about it, six people went in, and there wasn't even a sound. It's not as lively as the small fire that was put on before. "There is a lot of hatred between the words of Fu Gonggong. I watched the actions of these six people quite methodically before, and I planned to wait for them to play a black and black drama after they were done. As a result, I didn't expect these little praying mantis to be so unhappy.
But even if it's not good, you can make some movement, so that our family can watch a lively and explore the reality, and now it's like this, quietly gone, what is the matter.
Mr. Yi hummed softly, acquiescing that things were not going according to his original plan. He didn't care about it at all, and he didn't feel annoyed by it, but there were a few hints of appreciation in his eyes. Although he couldn't see everything that happened in the prison through the darkness, with his extremely keen perception of spiritual power fluctuations, he also knew that this prison robbery had ended extremely cleanly, and there was not even enough turbulence of spiritual power disturbance left in the air. It can be seen that this city lord, who was assessed by the second prince as an upright and capable official, really has some means.
