Chapter 179: The Secret Path
Let's say that Kan Hongning waited outside for a while, and when he heard the movement inside, it seemed to be a little smaller, and secretly said that it was not these people who found some exit from elsewhere and escaped?
He knew that in a dark cave, a person's eyes would not be able to see clearly for a while when the torch was illuminated, so he jumped into the cave without waiting for the torch to land. While he was still in the air, he saw the people below with the help of the light of the torches, looking terrified.
He also secretly wondered that these people were not afraid of death, and even if they were caught by mistake, they would be cut off by a knife at most, and they would not be scared like this, right? Suddenly he saw sparks flickering under his feet, and he smelled a pungent smell of gunpowder smoke at the end of his nose, and he suddenly woke up to the fact that these people were crashing in the mountains.
It must be to open the mountains and unload the mountains, and there will definitely be gunpowder and other things in the hands. He secretly screamed that it was not good, but he had already jumped into the hole, and it was impossible to turn over and jump back again.
The body has jumped onto the stalagmite on the left. Before his feet could stand firmly, he heard a loud "boom", and he was unconscious in the dark.
The soldiers who stayed outside saw the cave collapse with a bang, and they were all shocked, how could their own generals not be in a hurry when they were still inside, and immediately desperately used knives, guns and even their hands to pick up stones to save people. But this stone is extremely hard, even if you pick up your hands, you can only clear out a few steps of open space, and there are experienced soldiers in the government.
Hurriedly arranged people to guard here, and sent the swift government soldiers to the city of Jinzhou to gather rescuers. Leave the outside messy porridge and don't mention it, just talk about the things in the cave.
Yu Chitai's trick can be described as harming others and himself, he wanted to lay out the gunpowder and then lure Kan Hongning into the cave to detonate the gunpowder and blow this person to death, who knew that this person actually grabbed the first hole and threw the torch in, and the torch happened to be thrown on the gunpowder laid, and immediately detonated the gunpowder and blew up the cave, and more than half of the people in the cave were killed and injured.
Wait for Kan Hongning to wake up and turn around. He only felt severe pain all over his body, he secretly moved his muscles and bones, fortunately there were no fractures, only some skin injuries all over his body, he slowly stood up with his support to the stone wall.
Suddenly, there was a light in front of him, and someone lit a fire to illuminate the surroundings. He fixed his eyes on it, although the person holding the fire fold was unkempt, he knew it, "Young Master Yu Chi?" He couldn't help but be shocked, thinking to himself, how could such a character be here?
Yu Chitai shook his head with a wry smile, and greeted: "Lord Kan, I didn't expect us to meet here, the last time we met was in Chang'an City, listening to the singers singing and stroking the qin." It's good to be in such a field now, it's really a terrible scenery!"
Then he said: "Iron Scale Dao Chief, come out, they are all old people, and it doesn't hurt to meet each other." Iron Scale stepped out of his hiding place, his face blushing and not saying a word. After he fell in, he looked around for Xiao Lan'er, but found nothing. My heart hurts greatly.
Kan Hongning sneered: "What are you two doing here? Wandering in such a desolate mountainous area, Lao Tzu will definitely not believe that you are here to play in the mountains and rivers!"
Wei Chitai waved his hand and said, "We're fighting on it all day, haven't we fought enough?" Now whether we can go out or not is still a matter of two words. Don't fight anymore. ”
Kan Hongning shouted: "Don't come to this set! What are you doing here, don't recruit from the truth!" Wei Chitai sneered: "Actually, it doesn't hurt to tell you, but this trick is not used to hearing this son, although you are a big official, but not big enough to interrogate this son!"
Kan Hongning softened his tone and said, "Please also ask Master Yu Chi for guidance." Yu Chitai smiled: "That's right." Let's put aside our grievances first, and then go out first, not to mention that we have no grievances, we are seeking wealth, and you are fulfilling your official duties, which is all your duty. ”
Kan Hongning shook his head and said, "If you don't explain your intentions, I won't let you go." Iron Scale shouted angrily: "If you really want to do it, I alone will be enough to clean you up!" Yu Chitai hurriedly shushed: "Be careful! This place will collapse at any time, and you still talk loudly, you don't want to live!"
He sighed and said, "Well, there is nothing to hide now, I will tell you everything about this before." Kan Hong Ningqi said: "You don't know how to play any tricks, right!?"
You must know that this Wei Chitai has always been shrewd and cunning, and he is known as the "tanuki" in the circle of Chang'an sons. Yu Chitai smiled bitterly: "We have all reached this point, even if I tell you, whether we can get out alive or not depends on the creation, why should you be full!"
After Kan Hongning listened, he didn't feel a cold sweat on his body, he had also heard about Xu Jingye's hidden treasure in Chang'an, and it was rumored that several major families in Chang'an were secretly investigating this matter, and with his many years of experience as an official, there seemed to be a shadow of the royal family behind it, so he knew that the background was very deep, and it was definitely not something he could set foot in at will.
He regretted it in his heart, he knew that it was not as good as it was at the beginning, this time he went out of the city was just a routine patrol, but it was a pity that the sergeant who led the way was not familiar with the path and led the wrong way, so he came here by mistake, and met Captain Chi Tai and them, at that time he pretended not to see anything and led the army back to the city, if it was the case, he was afraid that he would have already taken a shower and drank comfortably and listened to music. Where will you suffer here?
Yu Chitai saw through his thoughts and said with a smile: "Lord Kan, since you know about this matter, it is impossible to stay out of it." I advise you to follow us all the way, and you will be indispensable for prosperity and wealth in the future!"
After that, he took out a token from his arms and threw it over, Kan Hongning reached out to catch it, and took a closer look by the firelight, it turned out to be the token of Princess Taiping's mansion,
He couldn't help but gasp: "It turns out that Yu Chitai is Princess Taiping's person!" He has long known that in recent years, Princess Taiping has relied on her assistance and meritorious service back then, and has wantonly arranged for her cronies to flood the court's confidential yamen, and the emperor has been quite dissatisfied, but he has not yet torn his face because of the trade-offs within the family, and now Princess Taiping has actually interfered in Xu Jingye's treasure, which shows that her heart is not small.
The remorse in his heart was even greater, and he even thought about killing these two people, but he knew that it was impossible to kill them with his martial arts. (To be continued......)
