Chapter 840: Doubts
The secret vault is very large, and the big one is beyond Liu Fan's imagination, and Liu Fan doesn't even dare to imagine that there is such a huge secret room under Yizhou City. Countless gold and silver treasures exuded dazzling light, even Liu Fan, who had a lot of money and didn't have much of a concept, was shocked by so much money, not to mention that there were countless weapons and armor in this secret room. Liu Fan casually picked up a weapon, the weapon was already covered with dust, and it was obvious that no one had cleaned it for a long time. There was already a trace of rust on the weapon, and the inscription on it shocked Liu Fan even more, these armors were cast longer than his own life, and the inscription of the Yizhou Weapons Division was clearly printed on it.
When Liu Fan saw these inscriptions, he was even more shocked in his heart, these weapons and armor in front of him were all standard equipment of the imperial army, and many of them were the equipment of the Praetorian Guard. The empire has very strict control over weapons and armor, and ordinary people have no way to obtain weapons and armor, let alone so many weapons and armor. Liu Fan looked at the more than hundreds of thousands of weapons and armor, and he was even more puzzled in his heart, who had such a great ability to obtain so many weapons and armor. The time of weapon casting is still the time when Marquis Wenwu ruled Yizhou, although Marquis Wenwu is not very good with the royal family of the empire, but he is still loyal to the empire, and it is impossible for these weapons and armor to be transferred under his nose.
"Who the hell has the ability to obtain so many weapons and armor?" Liu Fan's face was very solemn, Guo Jing and Yang Guo appeared behind Liu Fan, and the two of them also looked nervous when they saw the mountains of weapons and armor. Looking at the traces here, it is clear that it has been here for decades, and no one has found it in Weishenme for decades. Or was this a secret base of the Marquis of Wenwu?
The more Liu Fan thought about it, the more frightened he became. Although he didn't know what the situation was in Yizhou at that time. However, the military power and administrative power of Yizhou are in the hands of Wenwuhou alone, and the Weapons Department is the top priority, it is impossible for ordinary people to hide that Wenwuhou has obtained so many weapons and armor, so many weapons appear here, it is impossible for anyone else except Wenwuhou, or Wenwuhou knows the news, but he Weishenme didn't say it?
"Come on, lock this down. No one is allowed to touch here without my order!" Liu Fan became more and more frightened, if this is really the case, then what is their purpose for so much? If not, then what kind of person has such great ability to hide so many weapons and armor from the Marquis of Wenwu in Yizhou City? How many secrets are there in Yizhou City? After Liu Fan handed over this place to his subordinates, he hurried to his palace.
"Don't you know?" Yang Yayue put down the book in her hand and looked at Liu Fan in surprise and said, after hearing everything Liu Fan said, although she was also shocked, her face quickly recovered, and she explained to Liu Fan: "You should know that when the Sea Clan invaded last time, it was when several princes were competing for the throne, the empire was in turmoil, and my grandfather fought against the Sea Clan with his own strength. Our Wenwu Marquis lineage has suffered heavy losses. Later, after the retreat of the Sea Clan, our Wenwu Marquis continued to guard the maritime frontier of the empire. However, at that time, Prince Li had already withdrawn from the military circle, and my grandfather was disappointed in the empire, so he moved the government from Yizhou City to Chengdu City, and left Yizhou City to the Assassin Shi Che Zhou at that time. ”
"That is, it was the Thorn Shi Che Zhou who managed everything in Yizhou City at that time, and my family was only in charge of the army, and almost all civil affairs were managed by Che Guan, and they had to provide our navy with five million quintals of grain and grass every year, as well as three million taels of military expenses, as well as enough weapons and armor, warships and other materials. Yang Yayue explained the situation in Yizhou to Liu Fan in detail, and Liu Fan finally understood what was going on, and the uneasiness in his heart gradually eased.
Liu Fan had already guessed on the way here that these weapons and armor were not hidden by the Marquis of Wen and Wu at all, Gu Bao Zhai had existed for hundreds of years, and this was also a secret contact point placed here by the Ghost Demon Sect on the rivers and lakes, and this contact point had not been in contact with the outside world since it was established, until this time Liu Ailin was hijacked, so it was impossible for Yizhou, which had been in war several times, to know that this was a stronghold of the enemy. The point that these weapons and armor are hidden is that there are other people, but what kind of person is it, Liu Fan has already guessed after listening to Yang Yayue's words, only the Yizhou Thorn Shi Che Zhou at that time, otherwise it is impossible for anyone to have such a strong strength.
"Is there any descendant left in Yizhou now?" This chariot must be inextricably linked with the people on the rivers and lakes, and there is only one reason why no one has been discovered here, that is, Gu Shan didn't know that there was such a secret room, otherwise Gu Shan would not have kept such a secret vault for himself. Liu Fan didn't know how to explain all this, but these things that appeared in front of him were really too surprising to Liu Fan, the specific number has not yet been counted, and the amount of gold and silver treasures is definitely not small, enough to solve the current financial problem that plagues the Shenwu Army.
"I don't know this, this Che Zhou was sent by the royal family from the imperial capital, and he has been working in Yizhou until Zhishi, but I heard my grandfather say that Che Zhou has been in Yizhou for decades, and he has not transferred his family to Yizhou, and even if he has a family, my grandfather doesn't know. At that time, the situation was that as long as the chariot provided enough supplies and food, my grandfather didn't care about this Yizhou. Yang Yayue thought about it and said to Liu Fan, she was not born when Che Zhou was in Yizhou, and what she knew was only what she saw from the records in the family.
Liu Fan nodded, explained the matter to Yang Yayue and walked out, Yue Fei sent someone to guard the entrance of the secret room, and Guo Jing and Yang Guo sat there to prevent someone from fishing in troubled waters. Zhang Liang had already taken someone to count the number of supplies. Who is this chariot? What is the purpose of him hiding these weapons and armor? What is the connection between him and these Jianghu people?
"Sun Zhe, find out all the information about the former Yizhou Assassin Shi Che Guan. Liu Fan hurriedly came to the Imperial Historical Observatory and ordered to the Imperial Historian, although the Imperial Historical Observatory here is not as magnificent as the Imperial Capital, and even a lot of information in the Imperial Capital has not had time to be transferred. However, a lot of important information was transferred in time. Soon, the officials of the Imperial Historical Observatory came over with the materials that Liu Fan needed. Liu Fan looked at the information on the car, and the doubts on his face became more solemn.
"My lord. If it is really as the master mother said, then the secret hiding of weapons and armor can only be done by the assassin at that time, or it is not hidden by the chariot in secret, but the chariot must be affectionate, otherwise such a large number of liliang from the government is not in it, and it is probably not easy for them to hide it. What's more, the Marquis of Wenwu still had the right to garrison troops in Yizhou City, and the army of Yizhou was still the army of the Marquis of Wenwu at that time. No one would have been able to do this without a thorn in the way. Guo Jia finished reading the information about Che Zhou in his hand and said in a very affirmative tone, this is not what the information about Che Zhou said, but his resume is too simple, even with the terrifying historical records of the Tianlong Empire, the file of this Che Zhou is too clean.
Sometimes it's too clean, but it's not true, if the file of this car is placed in front of Liu Fan before the secret room is discovered, Liu Fan will definitely praise him, but now it can only show that the car is not simple. Guo Jia glanced at the information with deep eyes, and when he wanted to find more information, Sun Zhe, the imperial historian, told Guo Jia. There is only so much information about Che Guan, not even in the huge database of the Imperial Palace.
"My lord. Now it seems that this chariot is also a mysterious person, but at least it can be judged that this chariot is not from the empire. The corners of Guo Jia's mouth also hung a helpless smile, this thing in his hand can't explain anything, the place where these things appear is easy to remind people of the relationship between the car and these people, but this is not the most important, the key is that this car is completely out of order after hiding so many things, which makes Guo Jia feel very puzzled. It has been forty or fifty years since Che Zhou left Yizhou, and no one has touched anything here in the past forty or fifty years.
"On a full moon night, on the horizon. Guo Jia read these four words, but he couldn't guess the meaning anyway, there was too much information that could be revealed in the simple six words. Guo Jia couldn't find any valuable information, and Liu Fan could only say that he didn't have a clue, after all, he was not a god, and it was impossible to know everything. Of course, Fluttershy doesn't know anything about these things.
"Forget it, no matter, find Erin first, if they have any purpose, they will definitely come back to find these things, we just need to send someone to keep an eye on this place." Liu Fan thought about it and said helplessly, now that he knows nothing about all this, there is no need for him to continue to struggle on this issue, and now Liu Ailin is still uncertain, and Liu Ailin must be found first.
The search in Yizhou City continues, but it's not the blind search of the whole city before, the assassin brought back by the two Tiannin definitely gave the Shenwu Army incredible intelligence, of course, there are a lot of shady means behind all this, this is also no way, whoever let the top press too tightly, the following will naturally have to find a way to deal with it. Although Sikong Picking has not yet found the weakness of the other party's disguise technique, a very important piece of information has been sent to the hands of Sikong Picking Heart, that is, the technique of this disguise technique is very fixed, and everything can be changed such as body and appearance, but there is only one thing that cannot be changed, that is, eyes, and the eyes of Liu Ailin, who is controlled, reveal a blue light.
As soon as this information was transmitted, for a while, the soldiers of the Shenwu Army in the entire Yizhou City were looking for the blue eyes in the city. And now Liu Fan has a more important thing to do, that is, to pull out the rats around him. Jia Xu had already guessed that it was the fourth son of King Pingnan who might be in contact with the enemy, but the information fed back from the Pingnan Palace was that he had disappeared, and there was no news of him in the entire Pingnan Palace, and all the information about him was missing, and according to Jia Xu's speculation, the biggest mouse hidden in the Shenwu Army was not him, because he couldn't get so much important information at his level.
When the night fell on Yizhou City again, a small courtyard was already surrounded, even if these people were well hidden, but after all, the Shenwu Army had blocked Yizhou City for more than half a month, and it was almost three feet to dig into the ground. This time it was still a secret operation, and Jing Ke led the team to carry out the mission, but everyone did not dare to attack rashly. After all, Liu Erin is still in their hands. In case the enemy loses his mind, then the matter will be in trouble.
"Are you sure it's inside?" Liu Fan appeared in the encirclement with a solemn face. Jing Ke walked in front of Liu Fan and nodded solemnly, and whispered to Liu Fan that he could already be sure that Liu Erin was in this small courtyard. The nearby enemy outposts have been pulled out, but they don't know what the situation is inside, and everyone is not clear and dare not rashly attack.
"Big brother, we are already surrounded by the people of the Shenwu Army, what should we do?" The Hawkeye Hand stood in the dark and looked coldly at the Divine Warrior Army coming up from all directions, and the man standing next to the Hawkeye Hand spoke in a very anxious tone. Obviously, they didn't expect the Shenwu Army to come so quickly, they had just uprooted their stronghold of external communication during the day, and surrounded them at night.
Hawkeye's brow furrowed, the sight in front of him was beyond his expectations, he didn't expect the enemy to come so quickly. In fact, even if the Shenwu Army doesn't come, they won't be able to hide for long, losing Gubaozhai, a place that can provide them with food, with the means of the Shenwu Army controlling the whole city now, they will not last three days at most, they must go out, otherwise they can only starve to death. After the information was sent, the outside information could not be sent in. The entire city was blocked even more, whether it was entering or leaving the city. It's simply not possible.
"As long as she is still in our hands, the Shenwu Army will not dare to attack easily. "The Hawk-Eyed Hand knows very well what the Shenwu Army is afraid of now, and after abducting Liu Erin for so many days, he now understands how important this Liu Erin is to the Shenwu Army. The eagle-eyed hand is of course panicked now, but he also has the bottom in his heart, as long as he makes good use of Liu Ailin, he is not afraid that the Shenwu Army will not give them a way to live, but they are not afraid of the jade burning, and I am afraid that only Liu Fan of the Shenwu Army is afraid.
"Listen to the people inside, give you a chance, release people, otherwise you will be killed!" Liu Fan has already transferred all the masters who can be transferred, Liu Fan has also lost patience, and waiting for it can only mean that Liu Ailin is more dangerous. Liu Fan did not launch a strong attack, that was because Liu Fan still wanted to know what they had to do with Che Guan? What secrets were still hidden in Yizhou City? Gu Bao Zhai's secret contact point had not been used since its establishment, and the people who knew this secret contact point were definitely not simple, and there were many secrets hidden in him.
"Let us go, and when we're safe, we'll naturally return Liu Erin to you. "Hawkeye is certainly afraid in his palm, but after all, he holds the weakness of the Shenwu Army in his hand, and his heart is also a lot more stable. The Hawkeye Hand himself did not show his face, others may not know, but the Hawkeye Hand who was born with Bai Yulou knew how terrifying these subordinates of the Shenwu Army were, and now he showed his face completely to find death, and with his strength, he could only be killed in front of these people.
"Lord, I can go in and have a look. Jing Ke stood beside Liu Fan and said coldly, Liu Fan nodded, and Jing Ke's figure disappeared into Liu Fan's side with his two heavenly ninjas in a flash. Liu Fan didn't mean to continue negotiating with these people, Liu Fan snorted coldly, and Ling Hu Chong and Zhang Wuji, who were standing beside Liu Fan, glanced at each other, and almost killed in the direction of the source of the sound at the same time.
"Don't talk about killing!" After Liu Fan received the news from Jing Ke, he said coldly to the generals around him, and everyone immediately dispersed and surrounded this small courtyard from all directions. Liu Fan didn't want to do it himself, now Liu Fan's identity is no longer suitable for doing it, and almost all of his elite subordinates are concentrated here, if he is doing it at this time, it is a manifestation of not believing in his subordinates, and saving people Jing Ke and others are obviously better than themselves, Liu Fan has already ordered it, and everything here will naturally be dealt with.
The fight is only a matter of a moment, Jing Ke and Tian Ren who lurked in the house one step ahead, the three of them started almost at the same time after finding Liu Ailin, the most powerful assassin kung fu here is the Eagle Eye Hand, but unfortunately the Eagle Eye Hand is not as fast as Jing Ke even if the hand is fast. The Tai'a sword in Jing Ke's hand cut off the hands of the eagle-eyed hand with a single rotation, Jing Ke's body took off the chin of the eagle-eyed hand with just one movement, Liu Fan had already explained that he wanted to live, and naturally he would not be allowed to die at this time.
"Search around, don't let anyone go, search me carefully!" Lu Xiaofeng walked to Liu Ailin's side in a few steps, put his finger on Liu Ailin's arm, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, Liu Ailin had nothing to do. Jing Ke picked up Liu Ailin, and her figure disappeared in front of everyone in a flash.
"Send it to the Tai Hospital, send me Wannian Zhuguo, send me all the people to the prison, and the rest of the things will be dealt with later. Liu Fan glanced at Liu Erin in his arms, his face changed slightly, and he immediately followed Jing Ke and Liu Ailin towards the Tai Hospital.
"The order to go down to the four gates to strengthen the guard and remove half of the garrison in the city, if I am not mistaken, some people should be unbearable. A sneer hung on the corner of Guo Jia's mouth, and he said to Yue Fei beside him.
"What did the military advisor say?" Yue Fei looked at the expression on Guo Jia's face, and arched his hand and said, "I know the military advisor." (To be continued......)
