Chapter 114: Threats
The officer and soldier also smiled and agreed
"Yes, how can this guy be compared to a general."
At this time, the street was silent, and the conversation of those people naturally reached the ears of Chang Sheng and the others, and everyone was ugly.
"These people are so mad that they even mock their colleagues who died in battle."
Hu Qi's voice scolded angrily.
Chang Sheng's face was clouded
"Listening to what they said, it is difficult to make it possible, the forbidden army here and the officers and soldiers of the Chuanfeng Battalion were all killed by the Xiangwang design."
Hu Qi was incredulous
"How is this possible, the king of Xiang is even a pit for his own people?"
Chang Sheng gently pinched the flower pot in his hand, very distressed
"That's the weirdest part, if he just wants to usurp the throne, he doesn't need to go through so much trouble."
At this moment, there was also movement below, and the commander ordered
"You guys, put the bodies in order, you guys, start working on the streets."
At this time, Chang Sheng above was surprised to find that among these officers and soldiers, there were many people carrying backpacks, and when they followed them before, they didn't pay attention because they didn't dare to follow too closely.
"What's in there?"
Chang Sheng stared at the officers and soldiers carrying the basket on his back, his face was solemn, and his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he wanted to see the things in the basket with all his strength, but the sky was too dark to see clearly.
As he spoke, the officers and men had already moved, and in just a moment, the 1,000 officers and soldiers were distributed on every section of the street, in groups of several people, and there were people in each ten-zhang area, and they couldn't see what they were doing clearly.
But before long, the sound of knocking on the stone slabs on the ground began to be heard from far and near.
It didn't take long for the corpses to be gathered together by the officers and soldiers.
The commander, who was recuperating on horseback with his eyes closed, was woken up by the officers and soldiers who came to report.
"General, the corpses have been put together."
The commander frowned slightly, as if he was a little unhappy with the disturbance of the officers and soldiers, looked at the corpses piled up like a hill in front of him, and glanced lightly at the officers and soldiers who were working in the distance
"Let the people who work stop for a moment, this side burns first...... Keep them away when they burn it. ”
"Yes!"
But to Chang Sheng and the others' surprise, the fire here had not yet burned, and in the distance, on some street, black smoke was billowing into the sky, and the firelight illuminated a corner of the sky.
Then, the amazing thing happened again, and there was black smoke rising from another street, and then the third, fourth, and fifth streets, and all the streets in Taiyang City were billowing black smoke at the same time!
Chang Sheng and the others watched this scene dumbfounded, and several people looked at each other in disbelief.
Could it be that it's not just the people on this street who are dying?
On Refreshment Street, a raging fire lit up half of the street.
"These people want to destroy the corpses?"
The master stood behind Pei Wei and said lightly, as a master of the Yin Official, he had seen more cruel scenes than this, and he didn't feel anything abnormal.
On the contrary, it was Pei Wei, staring at the back basket behind some officers and soldiers with a gloomy face, not knowing what he was thinking.
The fire burned on eleven streets except Taiyang Road, and the billowing smoke almost covered the entire Taiyang City, making the already dark night a little darker.
Countless coughs rang out from the houses lining the streets, but no one showed up.
The officers and soldiers looked at the closed doors on both sides and sneered again and again, as if to say, forgive me and dare not come out.
About half an hour passed before the smoke gradually dispersed, and the fire, which illuminated almost half of the sky, gradually extinguished.
Then, the officers and men who had been before began to bust themselves in the streets again, and the irritating sound of percussion sounded again.
At the same time, the quarry.
After Wan Chaoyang sent Yan Sihai into the white area, he used his disguise to investigate around the quarry, wanting to know where Leng Lian Yi was hiding.
But until the night, he didn't see the figure of Leng Lianyi, but the quarry steward attracted her attention.
It was late at night, there was no one in the quarry, and Pingchuan, who was wearing a hat, walked slowly in the quarry, and Li Er followed aside.
"Sir, something happened to my lord, what should we do here?"
Hirakawa said calmly
"It's okay, just keep doing your thing."
Li Er still looked worried
"The main thing is whether the business of the fireworks shop should be returned, after all, without the way of the Ministry of Works, there is no way to explain to the imperial court."
Hirakawa paused and said
"Someone will take over, don't worry."
Li Er stopped and stared at Pingchuan meaningfully
"Sir, the matter of going downstairs is the most important thing now, you have to prioritize it, you must know that the owner of the building never cares about anything outside of his body, such as gold and silver, even if this business is profitable, it has nothing to do with the overall situation."
Pingchuan turned his head, Li Er couldn't see Pingchuan's expression clearly, and only heard a faint voice coming out
"Who told you it's just a money-making business."
Li Er was shocked when he heard this
"Could it be that this business has something to do with the owner's plans?"
Hirakawa chuckled, turned his head to look into the distance, and muttered to himself
"Of course it's related, it's a big deal."
Wan Chaoyang, who was hiding in the distance, listened to the conversation between the two very clearly, and secretly thought to himself: There are really ghosts in this place, but the Pingchuan City Mansion is so deep.
When Wan Chaoyang was thinking, Li Er spoke again
"By the way, there is a newcomer in the white area today, and it looks a little wrong."
Hirakawa Road
"Someone."
"It's an old man, he looks a little evil, I asked the people in the white area to follow the old rules."
"In that case, you can do this kind of trivial matter yourself, and you don't have to report it to me."
"But I always feel that the old man looks like a person, and he looks very much like the ghost doctor mentioned by the owner of the building, Yan Sihai, who looks a little obscene, tall and thin, and his eyes are sneaky."
The scene suddenly quieted down, and Pingchuan's body shook, paused for a few breaths, and suddenly shouted
"Then you dare to let him in!"
He rebuked angrily
"Hurry up, follow me to the white area and have a look."
Who knew that Li Er was not in a hurry
"Don't worry, just in case, I left the cold refining clothes in the white area, even if he is a ghost doctor, he is not the opponent of the cold-faced rakshasas."
There was another silence, the evening breeze blew, Pingchuan's clothes fluttered, looked into the distance, and then sighed slightly
"Alas, it's not ......"
Li Er didn't know what he meant, and scratched his head.
But Wan Chaoyang in the distance is not going to do it, that Leng Lian Yi is a master at the level of Kuofu, even if Yan Sihai is good at crooked ways, I am afraid that it will be more auspicious, but now the white area has been sealed by the Broken Dragon Stone, if he can't find the mechanism, he is helpless.
Pingchuan and Li Er were about to continue walking, but at this moment, a man in tattered clothes descended from the sky and looked at the two coldly
"How to open the Broken Dragon Stone!"
The two of them were shocked, and Li Er pointed at the man and shouted angrily
"It's you!"
North, no outside Syracuse.
A huge convoy was marching on the official road, and surprisingly, this huge convoy was escorted by dozens of masked men in black.
The black-clad man at the head had tiredness in his eyes, and dozens of wagons slowly followed, their speed was very slow, each wagon was pulled by four horses, and even then, the horses looked very difficult.
A man in black behind him complained
"It's really not the right time for the wind dart to be extinguished that day, if they are still there, where can we use so hard."
The leader gave him a blank look and reprimanded
"Even if those pieces of waste are still alive, are you willing to give them so much credit? Less nonsense! ”
As he spoke, the leader's gaze extended backwards, and there were still sporadic fires in the rear dozens of zhang away, and the convoy that had opened dozens of zhang distance between the front and back was slowly moving along the wide official road in the dark night.
In the distance, a young man in a fancy costume followed the convoy unhurriedly, holding a pot of wine in his hand, with shallow wine marks overflowing from the corners of his mouth, muttering to himself
"I can't get used to the wine in the north, it's too strong."
Quarry, White Zone.
"Ahem......"
There was a surge of qi and blood in his body, and Yan Sihai couldn't help but cough up another mouthful of blood.
It was white and smoky in front of him, and the laborers who had surrounded him before were now lying on the ground.
His martial arts skills are not high, but it is very easy to deal with such a large number of laborers who have no martial arts, and he only needs to make his own smoke.
Yan Sihai bent down with difficulty, sat on the ground, took a few breaths, and touched his waist.
"Ouch, it's hard for my old man's waist."
His grinning teeth and wrinkled face were already covered with sweat at the moment, and it could be seen that he was seriously injured.
Fortunately, he was a doctor himself, so he took out a medicine bag from his arms, took out a few herbs, mixed it with saliva, and swallowed it jerkyly.
Half an hour later, his breathing became slow and even, and he slowly opened his eyes, with a trace of blood on his face, but his expression did not dare to relax for a moment.
The white smoke in front of him gradually dissipated, and the field of vision became wider again, and a black shadow appeared in the distance.
Yan Sihai's eyes narrowed slightly
"It's a pity that a dignified master is willing to be a killer in this small quarry."
On the other side, the grimace man in black was in no hurry to step forward
"Mr. Ghost Doctor, aren't you willing to come to this quarry to work as a laborer?"
Yan Sihai's brows tightened, and sure enough, he knew his identity.
"Call out the antidote."
The grimace said.
Yan Sihai smiled slightly, the poison he gave was naturally not something that ordinary people could unravel, not to mention that in order to ensure success at that time, he reluctantly used the snake venom that he had treasured for many years, and after being poisoned, even if he was a master of the sect, it would take him more than half a day to completely force out the poison, and although the grimace looked fine at the moment, most of the time it only temporarily suppressed the spread of the poison.
"It's better for us to talk about a deal, you let me out, and I'll give you the antidote."
The old god Yan Sihai was sitting on the ground, looking at the grimace and itchy teeth, eager to pierce him with a sword.
"Humph!"
After a moment, the grimace still gave up on the idea, snorted coldly, and said
"Don't think about this, to tell you the truth, this Broken Dragon Stone wants to be opened from the inside, unless the master of the Great Grandmaster Realm kills the death, otherwise, you can only wait for death if you are trapped in it."
Yan Sihai naturally didn't believe it, this grimace was so life-saving, it was naturally impossible for him to put his life in such a dangerous situation.
"Then let's just wait, when someone outside comes to open the door, I'll give you the antidote."
