Nine hundred and fiftieth IX fish slipping through the net

Suddenly, Lu Xiaoxian stopped the horse and looked at An Bozhu: "Deputy General An, I have something unknown, can I tell you?!"

"What's the matter?" An Bozhu thought Lu Xiaoxian was still thinking about the burning of military rations, so he hurriedly said, "Sir, I will tell you everything I know!"

"Does Deputy General An have any connection with Captain An?"

An Bozhu opened his mouth wide. It turned out that Lu Xiaoxian had not thought about the burning of food and grass just now. But he was thinking about this. He was a little amused and said: "He is the son of the last general. He has never had a good appearance since he was a child, so he laughed!"

Lu Xiaoxian couldn't help but nodded and said, "I'll just say that when he sees you, he is not like his subordinates and Shangguan. Deputy General An, you have a good son, and he will definitely have a bright future in the future!"

An Bozhu asked in a low voice: "Sir, is there really a yin evil blood in this world, and the evil ghosts complain about their grievances?"

Seeing An Bozhu's nervous look, Lu Xiaoxian couldn't help laughing and said, "Deputy General An, do you really believe it? What kind of Yin Evil's blood ghosts complain about is actually just a trick. If it is injured by a sword, blood must seep into the soil, and blood stains appear when they encounter wine. Besides, people have an instinctive fear of fire. Even if they don't have time to escape in their sleep, they will rush out with the desire to survive. How could there be a reason why dozens of people stay in the fire?"

"In this way, is there something else wrong with the death of the defenders?"

"Not only the death of the defenders, but even this thunder is extremely strange. The thunderstorm is the first to be hit by the high places, such as pagodas, big trees, etc., and it is located in a valley, and the height of the tent is not as high as the grain pile. It is said to be a lightning strike, but there is insufficient evidence."

Anbozhu asked in confusion: "But there is indeed a huge pit on the ground. If it weren't for thunder, how could it become like that? In addition, if it wasn't for thunder and people who intentionally set fire, why would it be rainy?"

"Please choose to be a rainy day to create a false appearance of lightning strikes. Everyone knows that water and fire are incompatible, but they do not know that everything varies from place to place. When the army is about to set off, the food and grass are kept carefully, and the top is covered with oil cloth to prevent moisture. If it burns from the inside, as long as it becomes a force, it will not be afraid of rain. As for that huge pit..."

After a stop, Lu Xiaoxian hesitated for a moment: "Although I don't know, someone knows that when he arrives in Luoyang, all this will be fruitful!"

"Who has such great ability?"

"I'll know then!"

After saying that, Lu Xiaoxian ran forward again by horse.

An Bozhu looked at Lu Xiaoxian's back in confusion and followed.

Lu Xiaoxian lives in the backyard of Luoyang Inn, where there is a peach forest.

This season, the peach blossoms have fallen, and the lush peach forest is dark green.

When the new peach is first ripe, it is mostly shyly hidden at the bottom of the leaves, but the fragrance of the fruits is already filled with the surroundings.

At the end of the peach forest, Wei Xianyun was already waiting for each other leisurely.

A plate of red peaches on the table was the one I had just picked, and the peach leaves on the branches were still green and dripping. Put the wine into the newly absorbed well water to remove the heat and then pour it into the bottle.

"Sir!" Lu Xiaoxian looked at the familiar back and showed a child-like smile, "I finally hope you!"

According to the original plan, Lu Xiaoxian and Wei Xianyun were going to Luoyang together.

After receiving the emergency news, Lu Xiaoxian rushed to Luoyang in advance. He was worried that Wei Xianyun was weak and did not let Wei Xianyun go with him, but asked him to take a carriage and then arrive.

After counting this way, it is naturally a few days later than Lu Xiaoxian.

Wei Xianyun laughed and said, "Xiao Xian, you have suppressed the rebellion, but it was so amazing in the streets and alleys of Luoyang. Even I was shocked when I heard it.

Heart-wrenching!”

"Sir, do you believe this?" Lu Xiaoxian was embarrassed to scratch his head.

"What's going on with the burning of military rations?" Wei Xianyun asked directly.

"I was about to talk to my sir!"

Lu Xiaoxian told Wei Xianyun what he saw and heard in the Grain and Grain Camp. After saying that, Lu Xiaoxian asked, "Sir, are you proficient in alchemy?"

“A little bit of knowledge.”

"Great." Lu Xiaoxian took out a small bag from his sleeve. When he opened it, it was the black powder taken from the ruins of the grain camp. "Sir, can you tell what this is?"

Wei Xianyun took it, looked carefully, then placed it by his nose and sniffed it. He used his hand to shatter the coarse grains and placed them on the tip of his tongue, and immediately a bitter and bitter smell came.

"This is saltpeter!" Wei Xianyun affirmed.

"I don't know how good is saltpeter?"

"Saltpeter is a talent for assisting the envoy, but the medicinal properties are very strong. Sun Zhenren passed down the method of sulphur sulphur, which includes fine, sulfur, saltpeter, and soap beans, mixed, and placed in a tank to ignite and burn, which can remove the strong nature of the sulfur, but this method must be cautious."

"What's the meaning?"

"Sulphur is strong, while saltpeter is a great cold. Once excessive loss of control, there will be something amazing."

Hearing this, Lu Xiaoxian's eyes were even brighter: "What's the matter?"

"There was a Taoist who lived in seclusion in Zhongnan Mountain and refined elixirs according to the method of Sun Zhenren. Because he was eager to achieve success, he blew up the alchemy furnace and injured his arms."

“That is, this drug may cause a burst?”

"Not only that, if you use it in large quantities, you will be afraid that the consequences will be unimaginable."

Lu Xiaoxian put the saltpeter away and put it back into his sleeve, and he knew about it in his heart.

...

The night was hazy, and the city of Luoyang was silent. As soon as the sound of drums passed, two birds cried out from the corner of the street. After a while, two more sounds were heard, this time in a house. The previous black shadow poked his head out from the wall and knocked on the wall. Soon a package was thrown out from the inside, and then someone climbed over the wall.

"how?"

"Shh!"

The two figures sneaked out of the alley and came to a secluded corner in a roundabout way. Looking at the moonlight, there were two ragged teenagers.

"What's inside?"

"This box is so exquisite, it is probably a good thing!" The person who had crawled out of the wall before said proudly.

The young man swallowed and looked at the wind stuttered, "Why don't we open it and take a look?"

As soon as I finished speaking, the words were stopped by the slightly larger one: "Didn't you agree to share the stolen things together?"

"Hi, hide some quietly, the boss won't know... Besides, we only take some broken silver..."

The other one was also a little moved when hesitated and looked at each other, and finally nodded as if determined: "Okay, but you can't say it!"

"Don't worry, I came up with the idea, how could I reveal my own bottom line?"

The two of them opened the package excitedly, revealing a beautifully carved mahogany box inside. The box was not locked, but only the latch was loosely placed horizontally. Remove the latch and open it carefully...

...

"Brother Xiaoxian!" In the middle of the night, Yan Gu hurriedly brought Zhou Shuang to see Lu Xiaoxian.

Lu Xiaoxian knew that Yan Gu came to him at this time, and there must be something urgent.

"Sir, I asked for some information and thought it was useful to you, so I came to see you!" Zhou Shuang said to Lu Xiaoxian.

"What's the matter?" Lu Xiaoxian asked.

Zhou Shuang reached out and grabbed a child like a chicken from behind. She looked thirteen or fourteen years old, ragged and her eyes were extremely flexible. He was short and hid behind Zhou Shuang, and he could not see his figure at all.

"Who is this?" Lu Xiaoxian looked at the child strangely.

Zhou Shuang replied: "He is a beggar in the city and is also the eyeliner I arranged..."

Lu Xiaoxian looked at the little beggar and said, "Tell me what's going on?"

"This...this...this...this...this and Gua Ge went to a family last night...this...this...this...this...this picked up a box..."

Seeing him hesitating, Lu Xiaoxian immediately understood what the so-called "picking" was going on and said calmly: "What about it?"

"Then……"

Listening to the child explaining the matter in detail, Lu Xiaoxian didn't say anything, looking at the things in the box: the topographic map of the grain camp, the letters with Li Chongfu, as well as silver notes and some things.

It can be judged that the owner of this box is Zhang Lingjun. Zhang Lingjun, who has not found it for so long, actually hid in this family. Moreover, all the evidence shows that the incident of burning military rations was planned by him.

After seeing off Zhou Shuang and the little beggar, Lu Xiaoxian no longer felt sleepy. He murmured to himself: "I didn't expect that the fish that escaped the net would actually make big waves!"

Lu Xiaoxian informed Xue Ne overnight and sent someone to search the house. Unexpectedly, Zhang Lingjun actually got the news in advance and escaped overnight again!

Lu Xiaoxian called Wei Xianyun, and the two of them discussed until dawn.

The next morning, more fully armed soldiers appeared in Luoyang City. They began to investigate the surroundings with the family where Zhang Lingjun escaped as the center.

Perhaps because of insufficient troops, there were not many soldiers guarding the city gates leaving the city, and they were not too strict in checking pedestrians.

At noon, a carriage came towards the city gate. The guards raised the curtains and saw a noble lady sitting in the carriage. She was wearing a high bun, dressed in a veil on her face.

Luoyang City is like Chang'an City, and most noble ladies will wear veils when they go out.

The soldier saw that there were female members sitting in the car and waved his hand to let go.

"Wait!" Lu Xiaoxian suddenly appeared at some point, and An Bozhu in military uniform followed him.

"Madam, please take off the veil!" Lu Xiaoxian said to the noble lady politely.

The lady did not move or speak, but she could see that she was very dissatisfied with Lu Xiaoxian's actions.

"My name is Lu Xiaoxian. I believe you have heard of it too, Madam! It is a special period, please forgive me for your recklessness!"

Lu Xiaoxian knew that he had a very famous name in Luoyang, so he also called him this name without any scruples.

Mrs. Gui had no choice but to take off the veil.

Lu Xiaoxian looked at the noble lady carefully. She was a not-beautiful woman, and she could even be said to be ugly, but she was indeed a woman and had nothing to do with Zhang Lingjun.

Lu Xiaoxian said apologetically to the noble lady: "Madam, you are taking the liberty, please leave the city!"

Mrs. Gui nodded and was about to cover her veil, but Lu Xiaoxian yelled: "Zhang Lingjun, do you really want to leave?"

The lady's hand shook and her veil fell to the ground.

Lu Xiaoxian ordered coldly to the left and right soldiers: "Drag it down and beat it hard. If you don't beat it, you will be in military law!"
