Quanzhou City has been very unquiet recently.

A few days ago, in the middle of the night, a shocking noise woke up every sleeping house, and the shaking of the house made the sleepy-eyed people mistakenly think that there had been an earthquake, and they didn't have time to think about anything, so they dragged their wives and children and ran out.

When they ran out of their homes, they realized that it was not an earthquake, but something that had blown up in the northern part of the city.

No one knew what was going on in Beicheng District, and the people who were close wanted to investigate, only to find that the officers and soldiers had already blocked the streets, and no one was allowed to enter or leave without permission.

Soon, from further afar, almost every medical hall was knocked on the door, and the doctors and apprentices were hurriedly dragged into the carriage by the officers and soldiers before they could ask anything, and galloped away under the frightened eyes of their families.

At the same time, a large number of wounded patients were transported out by the officers and soldiers, and the sharp-eyed ones found that the officers and soldiers were not only the people of the Yamen, but also the soldiers and generals of the city defense army and the Jianhou Mansion.

The nearby medical hall was quickly overcrowded, but the medical hall was too small, and there were still a large number of wounded who could not be placed.

People looked at the officers and soldiers with serious expressions and the wounded with miserable appearances, and they did not know what was happening, so they could only stand outside the blockade line and watch from a distance.

No one wanted to go home, they all wanted to know what had happened, there was no war outside, no chaos inside, why such a tragedy happened in the treasure land of Quanzhou, which has always been peaceful and peaceful.

Soon, these intellectually curious people regretted it.

Suddenly, a sun appeared in the night sky, and after a brief pause, it fell, turning into five towering fire dragons that lit up the city.

The fire dragon did not last long before disappearing, and the officers and soldiers transporting the wounded moved, and a large number of men and horses gathered to rush towards the northern city, and the sound of horses' hooves seemed to trample on people's hearts, making people panic and make people sleepless all night.

The next day, everything was calm as if nothing had happened, but the unlifted blockade and the number of patients being treated everywhere proved that the night before was not a nightmare, and in the absence of a communiqué from the government, almost everyone was asking and speculating in their own way about what was going on in Beicheng.

Two days later, the blockade was lifted, and a large number of the lightly wounded returned home, while the homeless went to temporary shelters set up by the government.

The people who had been suspicious for two days immediately became active, first wandering around the resettlement center, and when they saw that the official guarding the door had no intention of stopping them, they boldly got up, and rushed into the resettlement center to find their acquaintances.

For a time, the wounded became celebrities, especially a coolie who had been poor for three generations, and was approached by the housekeeper of a well-known local wealthy businessman, saying that his grandfather was related to him, saying that the second daughter of his grandfather's cousin was the eighth aunt of his grandfather's great-grandfather's cousin and second son.

Climbing relatives is not the purpose, the point is to inquire about the news, the coolie brother is one of the few people who survived close to the scene, in front of a heavy sum of up to fifty taels, he did not hesitate to open his mouth.

There are many people like him, and one by one news flows out of these people's mouths, summarizes, and the results are shocking.

The disaster in Beicheng District is related to the Jianhou Mansion, and it is the result of the second and third young masters of the Feng family.

Yes, you heard it right, Feng Zhiyou, the second son of the Feng family, and Feng Zhiping, the son of the Feng family, the two of them fought, played a real fire, and then blew up Beicheng District!

The first reaction of people who heard this conclusion was to sneer without discomfort, feeling that their money had been spent in vain, but one person said it was false, two people said it was false, and a group of people said it so that they couldn't help but believe it.

There are not many people like Brother Coolie who are very close to the scene, but there are many people who saw Feng Zhiping and Feng Zhiping do it, and the government evacuated in time to save the lives of these people.

No one cares why the two are fighting, and the focus of everyone's attention is on "fighting".

As we all know, the son of the world is crippled, and he is very beautiful in martial arts, but if he can't cultivate his internal strength, he will eventually be a fancy man, and he will be a waste person in terms of martial arts.

And Feng Zhiyou is the opposite, martial arts qualifications are extremely good, he has a reputation for talent when he is young, many people say that he is the most promising person to catch up with his father, although there is no hope for the formation period, but there is still a good chance to compare with him in the future to achieve martial arts.

A waste person, a Tianjiao, how to fight?

The two of them did not call it a fight at all, it was complete murder!

But the facts are in front of you, Beicheng District did blow up, with countless casualties, which shows that Feng Zhiyou is really moving, the strange thing is that the people outside are all dead, and the closest prince is still alive, what is the reason?

As a result, since the son of the world was evil, another hot topic spread in Quanzhou.

There are different opinions about why Feng Zhiping did not die, some say that it was protected by Feng Zhiyou, some say that the son of the world is not dead but is seriously injured and dying and has not woken up yet, and there are also those who say that the son of the world was blessed by God at a critical juncture and opened up the second pulse of Ren Du's strength, and there are all kinds of people who say anything, and the last one is the least believed, including the person who said it himself, it is purely funny.

Among these people, there are a group of people who are scared, and they only dare to listen but dare not interject, for fear of being noticed, they are not the side, but the people who crowdfunded the "Heavenly Master".

Originally, they weren't afraid, but since they heard that there was a monk in the scene of the brothers' wall, they were like sitting on pins and needles. Jiuhe Library

The resentment has revealed their identity to them, and the monks of Songshan Temple are undoubtedly high monks and masters in their hearts, far from being comparable to ordinary monks.

As the saying goes, the speaker has no intention of hearing the heart, and when they heard that the monk was also present, their first reaction was panic, thinking that the truth was probably not a brother's wall, but a brother's concentricity.

It's no wonder that they think about it too much, but the resentment hasn't appeared since that night, not only his other "Heavenly Masters" have also not, none of them have returned, it's like the world has evaporated, no matter how much they look for it, they can't find a trace.

These people are terrified, and they always feel that the officers and soldiers will break down the door in the next moment, and if they want to inquire, there is no way, if they want to find someone, they can't find it, if they want to apologize, they will die, and if they want to think about it, they can only wait.

I secretly hope that those people will not be captured alive if they don't run away, and if they are captured alive, don't confess to them, and the few who pick the lead are even ready to roll up and run away, leaving Quanzhou and never coming back.

It's a pity that I can't run if I want to, and Quanzhou is closed.

Since the Red Sword Marquis entered Quanzhou, Quanzhou City has never sealed the city gate, and sometimes it is not closed all night when encountering any festivals and happy events, so it has fallen into the reputation of "the city that never sleeps".

But now, the city gate is sealed, and there must be a pass issued by the government to enter and exit, and there are very few people who can get this certificate, basically they are vegetable and meat vendors who supply the daily needs of the city, and others, including several giants in Dongcheng District, can only salivate and stare at it.

According to estimates from insiders, with Quanzhou's grain reserves, the closure of the city for one year is not a problem, which means that as long as the lockdown order is not lifted for a day, at least one year will not be considered to go out in the city.

The people don't care, the businessmen are frightened, especially those giants, they know more than others, this time it is not only Quanzhou City, but the entire Quanzhou region is blocked!

The door is not allowed to enter, the ferry does not let open, their loss in just one day is as high as a thousand taels of silver, and this loss is not constant, it will continue to increase over time, at most three months their capital chain will have problems, half a year later, the commercial network under the jurisdiction of Quanzhou will begin to shrink, a year later, the commercial system in Quanzhou will completely collapse, unless a new commercial center is formed as soon as possible, otherwise the entire Changping County will be affected after a year, and it is conservatively estimated that the financial revenue will be reduced by at least fifty percent compared with previous years.

And to build a new business center, you need not only money, but also people, people who can sit in the leadership, but the problem is precisely here, they can't get out!

People can't get out, the news can't come in, they don't know what the situation is outside, and when they go to the government to ask, they are all soft nails, and those officials who greet each other with smiling faces on weekdays throw a sentence helplessly: "The Hou Ye personally gave the order, I have no right to call the shots, if you are really in a hurry, you can go to the Hou Mansion to ask." ”

One sentence dispelled most of the people's thoughts, but there were still monkeys who went to the Hou Mansion in a hurry, but unfortunately they were kicked out before they could even enter the gatehouse.

If you want to ask the rich businessmen in Quanzhou who is the most hated person recently, it is undoubtedly the old Wu who has been sticking to the gatehouse for decades, the old man is soft and hard, does not eat oil and salt, and he is anxious to pick up the big broom and fight, the rich businessmen are afraid of the majesty of the Hou Mansion and dare not fight back, so they can only hug their heads and run away, and run out of the old man who looked back at the old Wu who was scolding with a broom, angry, hateful and helpless, there was no choice but to think of other tricks.

And in the process, the merchants also found something that frightened them - someone was cleaning up their people!

It's not to dig people, it's not to force people away, it's to kill them directly!

The deceased has a shopkeeper, a shopkeeper in charge of several shops, a bookkeeper, a coolie on the dock, a chauffeur, a business partner who has known each other for many years, and even a beautiful concubine who has just been admitted to the door for less than half a year.

The reason why I know this is completely because the people of the Hou Mansion did not hide it at all, they not only broke into the door in the middle of the night, but also dared to kill people in the street in broad daylight, killing openly and arrogantly, and the most frightening thing is that the government didn't care at all, and only came over when they had finished killing people - not to enforce the law, but to help finish up.

What does that mean?

The Red Sword Marquis wants to take it by force, and abolish them to seize all the money bags in Quanzhou in their own hands?

That can't be done!

What's the use of just having money bags, there have to be people who fill them with money, ruining them is undoubtedly killing chickens and taking eggs, only harm and no good!

Or is the Hou Ye ready to support his own people to replace them?

Well, it's possible, but it's not that way.

Businessmen want to be bigger, first of all, they must talk about integrity, followed by all kinds of rules in the open and secret, summed up in one sentence, each with their own ability, it is difficult for people to be supported by this means to develop, who dares to do business with a person who may want his life at any time?

No one knew what the Red Sword Marquis thought, everyone was guessing.

Quanzhou is full of clouds, all kinds of speculation make everyone in danger, the restaurant is empty, the teahouse is deserted, the artists and vendors on the street are sparse, guarding the stalls to the pedestrian street in a daze, I don't know how long this kind of day will be, when Quanzhou City will be able to change back to its original appearance.

In this way, five days later, early on the morning of the eighth day after the explosion, the government finally made an announcement, announcing the lifting of the ban, and at the same time explaining in detail what happened and the reason for the lockdown.

Countless people poured out of their homes and crowded in front of the signs, holding their breath and listening carefully as the people at the front read the announcements aloud, and before they could read halfway through the reading, the quiet crowd exploded, and a terrible name poured back to the front of the stage from the corner of memory.

Death!
