Approaching his birthday, Xiao Jinyan calmed down.

Taking the risk to rescue Li Chuntie was a helpless move, and for several days, he was thinking about other backup plans, but he found nothing. If people want to be saved, they have to take risks. "You can't be brave. Li Chuntie once taught him this, but the current situation has to let him choose so.

The Criminal Department came down to inform that Ling Chi's trip would be carried out outside the noon gate at three o'clock tomorrow afternoon, when the yang energy was in full swing. At that time, His Majesty will watch the execution together on the viewing platform of the Wanshou Palace. The holy decree has already been issued, and the people can't help but watch, he wants to nail Li Chuntie to the pillar of shame in history, so that the people of the capital, civil and military officials, and Fanbang envoys can all witness this moment.

The punishment of 10,000 knives was completed in three days, and 3,300 knives were killed every day.

This gave Xiao Jinyan time to buffer.

From the private prison of the palace to the outside of the noon gate, there are more than 200 zhang, there are heavy guards along the way, and the escorts are also two martial artists of the Tongxiang Realm, and there are many masters in the secret who are mixed among the people. He and Xuanyuan took prisoners diplomatically at the noon gate, and the only chance was at this hundred feet.

Create chaos, take the opportunity to kill the two Elephant Masters, and blend in with the people before the rest of the masters can surround them.

This is the only way Xiao Jinyan can think of. But how can chaos be created? Attract attention without hurting innocent people?

A bold idea popped up in Xiao Jinyan's heart.

Jin is not changed back, this kid has disappeared since he came to the capital, and when I saw him today, his nose and face were swollen, like an eggplant after frost, listless. Xiao Jinyan asked, "Where have you been?"

Jin Buchang sighed, "The ghost of the mother-in-law of the actuarial hall is not gone, as soon as I returned to the capital, I was entangled by the mother-in-law of Lan Youyou." She trapped me for a few days, Brother Xiao, you don't know how dark I have been these days, that mother-in-law is simply a pervert!"

Xiao Jinyan looked at him with a little sympathy, "I want to ask you for a favor." ”

"As long as you don't deal with the Actuarial Hall, I'll do anything. ”

Xiao Jinyan said, "Coincidentally, I want you to help me introduce the Blue Hall Master, I have something to ask her." ”

Jin Buchang was so frightened that he waved his hand again and again, "Absolutely not, this matter is not negotiable." By the way, what are you looking for her? Could it be that you also like this mouthful?" he pointed to the bruises on his face, neck, and arms, and looked at Xiao Jinyan with a wicked smile. Xiao Jinyan took a sip of him, "There are two world-famous actuarial halls, one is mathematics, and the other is thunderbolts. I'd like to get some gunpowder from the Blue Hall Master. ”

Jin Buchang asked, "What are you going to do?"

"I'm going to blow up the Jinshui Bridge. ”

Jin Buchang almost didn't jump up, "I'm the number one troublemaker in the world, I feel like I'm already bold, I didn't expect you to be even more ruthless than me." Do you know that blowing up the Jinshui Bridge is a crime of rebellion, and the emperor Lao'er is on the upper floor of Wanshou Palace, if you blow it up in front of him, he must have a good face, haha!"

Xiao Jinyan asked, "You want to help me?"

Jin Buchang nodded again and again, "Such a fun thing, you have to count me in!"

"Then help me introduce the Blue Hall Master. ”

Half an hour later, the two came to the East Forty Hutong, Jin Bu changed his words, "Lan Youyou is inside, you know that I am afraid that she is going to die now, so I won't go in!"

Although Xiao Jinyan didn't know what was going on, seeing him say this, it was not difficult for Jin not to change, and he was about to let him leave, but he heard Lan Youyou say, "Be careful, you injured my subordinates, don't say goodbye, my sister has been sad for a long time, and now that my conscience has found out, I have come to look for my sister again?"

Jin Buchang scolded, "Evil woman, if Lao Tzu hadn't been able to fight you, he would have hung you outside the Forbidden City and stripped naked to show the public!"

Lan Youyouxiu's eyebrows were furrowed, and her hand covered her heart, making a heartbroken appearance, "You say that, my sister is going to be sad, go back to the house, my sister has made a few more fun things." After that, he was going to come and grab the gold, Xiao Jinyan pulled him behind him, and Lan Youyou said, "Get out." "It's a slap in the face.

Today, Xiao Jinyan wore a mask, Lan Youyou didn't recognize him, Xiao Jinyan left a little with his left hand, and his right hand grabbed her with his hand, clasping her pulse, she snorted coldly, she didn't know whether she was alive or dead, she vomited the internal force, and wanted to shake Xiao Jinyan away, but suddenly felt that the internal force was controlled by someone, and was dissolved by the three forces invisibly, the harder she struggled, the faster the internal force dispersed, and she was so frightened that she lost her face, and shouted, "Let go of me." ”

Lan Youyou's subordinates didn't dare to move when they saw that the hall master was restrained.

Seeing this, Jin Buchang walked up to her with a smile, "Evil woman, you have tormented me for so long, I didn't expect you to have today!" He saw a lump of donkey dung on the ground, picked it up with a stick, and made a gesture to smear it on her face, Lan Youyou was so frightened that he shouted, "Go away, little bastard!"

Xiao Jinyan put a force on his hand, "Let them stand down." ”

Lan Youyou glanced at his subordinates, and everyone retreated more than ten zhang away, but their eyes were always on the hall master. Lan Youyou played a drum in her heart, she was also the master of the actuarial hall, although the actuarial hall was not famous for martial arts, but after all, it was one of the four strange gates, as the hall master, her martial arts were not weak, and she was subdued by an unknown middle-aged man in front of her, and after thinking about it for a long time, she couldn't guess where the other party came from. She asked, "What do you want?"

Xiao Jinyan said, "I have heard that the Actuarial Hall Thunderbolt is famous all over the world, and I want to borrow a few for it." ”

Lan Youyou said, "It turned out to be for this matter." It's just a coincidence that the three thunderbolts I was carrying were seized by the government when I entered Beijing, so if you want to, just go to the government to get them. ”

Jin Buchang shouted, "Big brother, don't listen to her, she threatened me with a thunderbolt yesterday." He put the donkey dung in front of Lan Youyou, "If you don't hand it over, I'm welcome." ”

Lan Youyou looked innocent, "What I said is true, that thunderbolt yesterday was just a half-finished product, and it couldn't be detonated at all, I ...... I'm here to scare you. ”

"Where?"

Lan Youyou's face turned red, but he didn't speak.

Jin Buchang said impatiently, "What about you!"

Lan Youyou lowered his head and said hesitantly, "Down there." ”

Jin Bu said, "I've heard of the hidden thunder in the crotch of my pants for a long time, but today I have opened my eyes here at the Blue Hall Master." ”

Lan Youyou said angrily, "I'm talking about it in the bag in front of my chest, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Xiao Jinyan said to Jin Bu, "Take it out." ”

Jin Bu said, "Not very good?"

"Think about the inhumane treatment you suffered in the first two days. ”

Jin Buyou gritted his teeth when he thought of this, came to Lan Youyou, first reached out and gave her two slaps, and then put his hand in, touching left and right, where did Lan Youyou go through such a shameful humiliation, she likes Jin Buchang, but prefers to include him in the palm of her hand, possess him, and play with him, today the situation is reversed, and she hates it so much that she says coldly, "Did you find it?"

Jin Bu said, "Found it." ”

"Big?"

"Great. ”

"I was wrong. ”

Jin Bu said, "Impossible!" and took out his hand, a black projectile the size of a chicken egg was in his hand, "This is this thunderbolt?"

"One is enough to raze this house to the ground. ”

"Impossible, then you still have it with you?"

Lan Youyou said, "I said that this thunderbolt is only a half-finished product, and I dismantled the fuse and primer. ”

Xiao Jinyan saw that the size of the thunderbolt was just right, if this thing was detonated at Jinshui Bridge during the escort, the forbidden army, the Red Cavalry Army and the masters of Ouchi would inevitably return to Wanshou Palace to protect the emperor's safety, and then he would have an opportunity, thinking of this, he asked, "How can it be detonated?"

Lan Youyou said, "I have the fuse here, but the primer has to be prepared separately." With that, she took out two needle-like objects from her bosom and said, "There is a pinhole in the top of the thunderbolt, insert the fuse into it, and the primer is contained in the hole below, as long as it is thrown, the fuse pierces the liquid in the thunderbolt and fuses with the primer, and it will explode." ”

Jin Bu said, "Big brother, be careful that this mother-in-law deceives us." ”

Lan Youyou said angrily, "Believe it or not. ”

Xiao Jinyan thought for a while and said, "Miss Lan, I believe in you. With that, he let go of her wrist. Lan Youyou rubbed his wrist and said, "You're not afraid that I will harm you?"

"I'm afraid!" Xiao Jinyan said, "but it's also the end of the road, so I can only take a risk." ”

Lan Youyou took out another piece of paper and handed it to Xiao Jinyan, "The recipe for the primer is on it, you prepare it according to this method." Just now I gave you two fuses, you can verify them first, if the fuse meets the primer, if it turns red, it is matched. ”

Xiao Jinyan took the formula, thanked him, and was about to leave.

"Wait!" Lan Youyou shouted.

"What's the matter with Miss Blue?"

Lan Youyou pointed to the gold and didn't change it, "Leave him behind." ”

Xiao Jinyan said, "Listen to it." ”

When Jin Buchang heard this, he jumped up, "Absolutely not! surnamed Xiao, you can't fall into the well, cross the river and tear down the bridge, go up the beam to draw the ladder, and draw the salary at the bottom of the kettle!"

Xiao Jinyan thought that tomorrow would be extremely dangerous, and left him here, although he suffered some flesh and skin, it was better to let him take risks with him.

This is Xiao Jinyan and Li Chuntie's business, there is no need to involve others.

This matter is done, and he is also guilty of rebellion. If it doesn't, it's even more doomed.

Because of this, he did not ask Zhao Lanjiang for help, nor did he use the power of Dongfang Nuannuan, and he also refused to form an alliance with Tuoba Lanruo.

Xiao Jinyan said to Lan Youyou, "Tomorrow, there will be chaos in Beijing, don't go out and walk around." ”

Lan Youyou smiled, "I'll be very busy all day tomorrow." As he spoke, he smiled and glanced at Jin Buchang, and saw that Jin Buchang's hair was upside down.

Xiao Jinyan left the actuarial hall, and there was a curse and curse from behind him.

Xiao Jinyan followed the recipe given to him by Lan Youyou to find the materials for making primers, sulfur, saltpeter, mercury and some other excipients. However, these things are all things for making gunpowder, and like tung oil, they have become the things controlled by the imperial court, and some can only be found in the pharmacy, but fortunately, it does not take too much to make primers. However, after asking a few pharmacies, the other party said that these materials must have official documents and registered identity, Xiao Jinyan is now wanted by the government, so naturally he does not dare to expose it, so he has to pay several times the price, and most of the materials are complete, except for saltpeter, the owner of the pharmacy does not dare to sell it. "It's a head-scratching business, and we can't help it. ”

I visited a few more to no avail. When he was discouraged, a man with a dog skin plaster on his face stepped forward, "This brother, what kind of forbidden medicine do you want to buy?"

Xiao Jinyan looked at him and asked, "I need some saltpeter." ”

Plaster Lang Zhong smiled, "You've found the right person." ”

"Could it be that you have one?"

"I don't have it, but I know where it is, but you also know that this kind of thing is expressly forbidden by the government, and you have to spend some silver, so I'm afraid you will be reluctant to spend it. ”

There was only one day left, and Xiao Jinyan didn't have time to bargain, "I have the silver." He took out a silver ticket, shook it in front of him, and took out another ten taels of silver, "This is a deposit, as long as you can help me get half a catty of saltpeter, I will give you another hundred taels!"

Na Langzhong took the silver, put it in his mouth and took a bite, and after confirming the color, he looked around and said in a low voice, "Follow me!"

As he spoke, the two of them kept a distance of three or four zhang from front to back, and walked in the northeast direction.

About half an hour, Xiao Jinyan saw Na Langzhong walking around the city and asked, "You won't be cheating me, will you?"

That Langzhong looked at it for a long time, and then said with a smile, "Brother Tai is surprised, what we are doing is a criminal business, I am afraid that you are from the government, fishing and law enforcement here, so I have to be cautious, and now I am sure that no one is following, then I can rest assured, you come with me." ”

Xiao Jinyan suddenly realized that it was not only me who doubted him, but he was also doubting me.

He followed behind Lang Zhong and asked, "How do you know that I am not from the government?"

Lang Zhong said, "Do you remember, how many streets did we walk twice?"

"Not bad. ”

"Truth be told, there are quite a few of our people on this street, and I'll take you around in circles to see if there's a tail behind you, and when I pass by a second time, those people will signal to me, and I'll know. ”

"You're cautious. ”

Lang Zhong said, "Eat a trench, grow a wisdom, and be careful to sail a boat for ten thousand years." ”

Xiao Jinyan asked, "Don't you ask me what I want saltpeter for?"

Lang Zhong shook his head and said, "We are buyers and sellers, just product providers, the contraband in the court, arsenic' frost, saltpeter, firecracker, machine crossbow, as long as you can think of it, we can get it, as for whether you are used to save the world, or to kill people and goods, we don't care." ”

"It's quite complete, but where did you get it?"

Lang Zhong was secretive, "Don't ask about us." ”

Xiao Jinyan heard before that there are often disappearances of ordnance and materials in the imperial court, and those who can get out of these contraband must be inseparable from the government, which has formed a black industrial chain in the capital, and it is said that the profits are amazingly high, but he didn't expect to meet him today.

After walking for a while, Lang Zhong stopped in front of a house.

Xiao Jinyan noticed that not long ago, they had just passed by this house.

"It's inside. "Then you have to push the door open.

Xiao Jinyan was about to follow up, when suddenly a figure flashed, a sword swung out, nailed Na Langzhong in front of the door, and a voice came from his ear, "Leave quickly!" Xiao Jinyan saw that the other party was a raw face, but the voice was indeed Zhao Lanjiang's, so he knew that he was also wearing a mask, and his heart was strange, and suddenly an alarm was born, he sensed the fluctuation of true qi in the house, and realized that there were people in ambush in the courtyard.

He did not advance but retreated, jumped in the air, and followed Zhao Lanjiang out of the house.
