A night of despair
In fact, just as Shangguan Yi expected, after he calmly lay in ambush there for half an hour, someone finally came in.
The man rummaged through the shelves for a while, and finally seemed to have gotten something out of a book, then walked over to the desk, crouched down, and seemed to open the mechanism, but alas...... There was a big surprise hidden under the desk: Shangguan Yi was ready when he approached, and when he squatted down, he struck an uppercut and a small iron fist hammer on his chest, killed him repeatedly, and then took away the key in his hand.
Zhang Jiuan is also a talent, he doesn't have the key with him, he hides it in the book in the study, and the opening position of the organ is actually on a floor tile under the desk, no wonder he couldn't find any clues before.
Now that he got the key and knew the location of the lock, Shangguan Yi naturally wouldn't let go of this good opportunity, so he naturally wanted to investigate, insert the key into the lock and twist it, and the floor tile where the seat in the study was located was slightly raised, and then moved backwards, revealing the entrance of an underground passage.
Shangguan Yi hesitated slightly, and entered this passage with the body of that person, he guessed that the key to this basement was only this one in his hand, if he took this person's body inside, dealt with the murder scene again, and then walked away with the key, no one would know what happened here, the mastermind behind this person did not wait for him to go back for a long time, and naturally sent someone to come again, and then found that the key was gone, and people could not find a trace, and they didn't know what suspicion would happen, and the wicked would naturally guess in a more evil direction, wouldn't it be beautiful to let them fight in their own nestsγ
Entering the basement, Shangguan Yi looked at the considerable space in front of him, and then looked at the doors that could be opened on the left and right, and he vaguely felt ...... I may be about to make ill-gotten gains, although it is said that I robbed the rich and helped the poor, but I always came back in the wrong way.
In front of him was a large desk, and there was a thick booklet on the desk, Shangguan Yi picked it up and looked at it and confirmed that this was indeed what he was looking for: the account book, although it was an account book, but it recorded not only money exchange information, some of which were quite crucial.
Shangguan Yi looked at its thickness, length and width, put it back on the bookcase, and looked at the rooms on both sides, as expected, one side was full of gold and silver, and a small box of silver tickets, and on the other side were all kinds of rare and strange props. After a general browsing, Shangguan Yi nodded, and said secretly in his heart: "These words as one of the receipts are barely acceptable, barely acceptable, hehe." β
Yes, Shangguan classmates have already regarded these trophies as their own, after all, one pays, one gains, so hard, what's wrong with a little money? Just in case, he also took a few large silver bills, about 50,000 taels, which is also all the banknotes in 10,000 units that Chen Jiuan has here, he thinks that real money and silver are more credible, once the imperial court regime is overthrown, the monetary system is improved, and it is impossible to say that the original 10,000 taels of silver tickets are not worth a penny of silver, so he tun more gold and silver, packed a large box of a large box, as for the actual number, Shangguan Yi is too lazy to look.
After walking around the room on the other side of the treasure, Shangguan Yi vacated a small box from it to put the account book in and take it away, and then stuffed some things that he might use, such as Karakuri secret weapons and various pills.
After Shangguan Yi did these things, he returned to the study the same way, and after the door of the basement was locked, he just wanted to leave, but he vaguely heard a sound of footsteps, and after his body stiffened slightly, he repeatedly drilled under the table.
This time, it was the people in the house who passed by the door of the study, and they were discussing the future worriedly, and they no longer had their usual scruples. This is the tree falling and scattering, as soon as Chen Jiuan dies, no one can support this Chen family, so they have to find another way out for their future.
After these people walked away, Shangguan Yi just wanted to come out, but he felt that something was wrong, he was open to perceive, so he felt the air flow at the door, as well as the imperceptible sound of opening the door, closing the door, and footsteps.
"Has anyone come in again? Is this guy in the same group as the one before?" Shangguan Yi muttered in his heart, don't be, but yes or no, it doesn't matter, you have to kill him anyway.
"Well, this book...... The key is gone, heh, has that guy already sent someone to come?Heh, this profiteer is really not a thing, it's just ......" He was facing the bookshelf, holding the book that had been read by the guy before, and was sneering, but Shangguan Yi, who was holding his breath and concentrating, clicked on the acupuncture point, and then broke his neck.
It looks simple, but in fact, it is also a good opportunity for Shangguan Yi to grasp, this person saw that the key was gone, and the tunnel was not opened, thinking that the person had left before, and he was the only one in the study, so he naturally relaxed his vigilance, plus Liu once he was separated from Ma Fei, Yun Fei and others recently, he was also a little angry, and he was naturally angry, so he was slightly distracted. And Shangguan Yi himself has a certain amount of research and training in stealth, which is not at the master level, but even in the eyes of the master, he is also beginner, and with such a good time, it is reasonable to solve him calmly.
Searched the things on his body, except for weapons, there was nothing but some props, and there was no special mark on his body, even if he died, he would not leave any clues, such a person was the most reassuring to the masters, and it was also the most hated by Shangguan Yi as a detective, in desperation, he could only let him go to the basement to be with the brother Tai before, judging from his words, it seems that it is not from the same camp, or it is a subordinate of two different characters under the same camp, one is Liu Yi, and the other is Yunfei? There will be the current situation, I'm afraid it's still because of the word "profit", right?
Before the overall situation is decided, the signs of fighting in the nest have begun, hehe, it's really beautiful, well, very beautiful!
With his loot, Shangguan Yi left the Chen Mansion, and no one knew what was missing here, and no one knew that there were two more corpses here, except for him.
Shangguan Yi hid this box in the city, that is, in some of the hiding points provided by Mo Lan, as for whether it is absolutely safe, then only God knows, anyway, it is impossible for him to guard this box to the end, it is only right to continue to expand the results of the battle, this is a golden opportunity.
Yes, although it is a little exaggerated, but this is indeed a good opportunity for Shangguan Yi, the strongest people in the city are just the Shadow Sword, Feng Li and the Black Cloak, even if the other party still has any masters hidden in the secret, it still does not pose a mortal danger to Shangguan Yi. In such a situation, as long as he avoided it a little, it was enough for Shangguan Yi to act recklessly in the city, burning, killing, and fighting, and doing all the things that would ruin his conscience like a complete villain.
As for how to expand the results...... It said four words: burning, killing and robbing, the last three Shangguan Yi have done it, and the first one is still missing. As for where to burn, Shangguan Yi thought about it at the beginning: the granary.
Grain and grass is a must for soldiers, as the saying goes: the army has not moved and the grain and grass go first, at this time, Shangguan Yi wants to change it: the war has not started and burned the grain and grass first, and the heart of the army and materials will be lost, how do you fight with us?
Although burning grain and grass in this era when food is not rich is very wasteful, it must be condemned, if there is a hungry year, even if he is scolded, but he should be, but he Shangguan Yi did it! Since this plan has already begun, then make it big and make it absolutely desperate, so that these people will be terrified.
The combination of fire oil and fire and grain and grass, coupled with Shangguan Yi's artificial solution to those guys who may obstruct the fire, caused the result: the sudden fire was like a fire snake swallowing the sky, and after a while, it lit up the night, even the little rain left after the rainstorm was useless, and the panicked shouts of the surrounding people, the sorrow of the children, mixed with the sound of burning flames, gave people a deeper level of despair.
When the attention of the people of the entire city was gathered here, paying attention to the fire there, Shangguan Yi lit another grain and grass storehouse, and then went to the next place without looking at it, he had to complete the feat of a string of five granaries before the other party reacted. It's not that he's bold and looks down on those strategists, but no matter how high his kung fu is, he's afraid of kitchen knives; Why did Shangguan Yi keep that piece of paper in the evening? In addition to intimidation, it also had the effect of delivering news to Mo Lan. The two of them should be together inside and outside, and naturally they are invincible.
However, even if Mo Lan had tried his best to mislead Ma Fei and them without making people suspicious, he had not won the time for Shangguan Yi to calmly burn down the five granaries.
When Shangguan Yi wantonly poured fire oil on the fourth granary, the Shadow Sword arrived, and when something happened to the second granary, they knew that it would not be so simple, but at that time he didn't dare to act rashly, because just like Mo Lan said, if Shangguan Yi attacked Mo Lan again, Ma Fei's leaders would be terrible, but when the third granary had a problem, he couldn't stand, if the five granaries were all gone, then in case of a war, they would lose, and there was not only food in the granary, but also some of their "secret weapons." "It's hidden inside, so that outsiders can't find out. So he sent a message to the black cloak, asking him to go to the fifth seat to guard and protect the fourth seat himself, and he just happened to catch Shangguan Yi, who committed the crime.
"Oh? Shangguan Yi poured out the oil barrel in his hand, then jumped to the side, took out the fire fold and lit it, looked at the Shadow Sword with some provocation, and said, "Don't come here, otherwise it will be difficult for you to stop this granary from catching fire." β
"You have done everything since yesterday, right? What grievances does Nan Ke have with you, Your Excellency can say directly, if it can be resolved, it will be resolved, and it will be good for you, me and the people, if it can't be resolved, also tell me the reason, if the other party is wrong, we will definitely give you justice. "The Swift Shadow Sword stopped there, no longer advancing, as long as Shangguan Yi threw out this fire fold, those secret weapons would be exposed to the public, and he couldn't take this risk.
"Hahaha, I heard you right? You actually said reconciliation? It's funny, can we reconcile, we all know it in our hearts, why deceive each other?" Shangguan Yi laughed wildly, laughing straight up, laughing Shadow Sword frowned, very disgusted, and he also took advantage of the moment when the Shadow Sword was distracted, and threw the fire fold on the fire oil at a lightning speed, and then kicked again, and kicked the fire in all directions, making the fire instantly expand and irreparable.
"It seems that the only way to end this is by killing you. The Shadow Sword drew out his sword indifferently, as if he wanted to fight to the death with Shangguan Yi, and he would live or die.
Shangguan Yi pulled a sword flower and said, "You are not worthy!" and then took the initiative to attack the Shadow Sword, this time it was not like when he fought with Feng Li, every sword of Shangguan Yi was aimed at killing the Shadow Sword, and as the main attacker, he had more advantages and could give full play to his strengths.
Eleven swords, twenty-three steps.
Shangguan Yi attacked eleven swords in a row, knocked the Shadow Sword back twenty-three steps, retreated to the point that there was no way to retreat, and then put away the sword, leaving a wanton and arrogant laugh like a demon in the stunned eyes of Mo Lan and the others who were about to arrive in the distance, and left calmly.
"This ......" Mo Lan looked at this scene, as shocked as Ma Fei and them, the Blood Sword Black Canopy Rakshasa Ghost, this is the thing he prepared for Shangguan Yi, at this moment he can be sure that this thing is Shangguan Yi, but......! It doesn't make sense.
"Brother Chang, how are you? Is there a big problem?" Ma Fei hurriedly stepped forward, if Chang Pan was not the opponent of the other party, the situation would be really bad.
The Shadow Sword didn't answer, adjusted his breathing, and the internal force worked, then stood up straight, exhaled a breath of turbidity, and said: "I'm not injured, don't worry, it's just that he took the lead and fought a set first, this person's swordsmanship is fierce, eleven swords in a row, one sword is heavier than the other, next time I will be careful." β
"Huh, it's okay, then the fire here will be left to you to bring someone to rescue, don't delay. Ma Fei breathed a sigh of relief, he knew the character of the Shadow Sword, if he could fight, he could fight, and if he couldn't fight, he couldn't beat them, and he wouldn't lie to them about this kind of thing.
"Brother Chang is really okay? Why don't you rest first, I'll bring someone to rescue the fire here, just play the role of a county order, and you can't always be protected by you, right?" Mo Lan seemed to have no deep meaning to take over this errand.
"No need, it's enough for adults to have this heart, and the villain is grateful. "Of course the Shadow Sword Chang Pan refuses.
"Hahaha, don't interfere with Lord Mo, no matter how you say it, you don't know martial arts, this fire is dangerously tight, I am too scared to approach, I can only entrust Brother Chang to do it, you also cherish your body, let's go back and study the movements of the thief, the last place is guarded by one of our generals, if he dares to go, let him go and not return!" Ma Fei smiled and pulled Mo Lan back.
Mo Lan also smiled obediently, but the light in her eyes dimmed a little. It seems that whether it is by mistake or intentionally, there is nothing wrong with Shangguan Yi's burning of this wave of grain and grass storage, what is hidden in it? How much can be left after this fire?
