Lin'an Never Night

Chapter 324 Yuexi Jinla Luo

Dai Shan was chained and the heavy door was closed.

Once the air stopped flowing, the atmosphere in the room became even more depressing.

This dullness made Dai Shan feel even more stressed.

He felt his legs go weak, and with the chains on his body, he could no longer stand.

With a thud, Dai Shan collapsed to the ground and said in a trembling voice, "Dong Dong Dong... whatever the boss wants to ask, I would never dare... dare not hide anything."

Yang Yuan was stunned at first, then he burst into laughter.

I guess Dai Shan didn't know his real identity and didn't know how to address himself, so he used the name he was used to.

Yang Yuan nodded and said, "Did Shen Xi ask you to kill me?"

Dai Shan was stunned and said quickly, "I don't know, no no no, I have never seen Shen Xi.

At the beginning, I was sent by the Duzuoyuan to build a house for you, my boss.

Two days later, Commander Shen…that is, Shen of course, he sent someone to tell me to start a big fire and burn you to death…"

Dai Shan seemed to be so frightened that he collapsed. He was trembling as he spoke. It was estimated that if Li Yisen threatened him again, he would be scared to death.

"I... I am a worthless person. I have done many evil things with Commander Shen, and my hands... have also been stained with several lives.

So Commander Shen is very confident in me, and I will naturally follow his orders..."

After listening to him, Yang Yuan nodded again. This man really knows everything.

However, as it was a matter of the "Ma Huang Crossbow", Yang Yuan, out of caution, still used some rhetoric to try to trick him, lest he think that the matter could be covered up and take chances again.

So, Yang Yuan sneered as if he had already figured it out.

"This is a personal grudge, so it's fine. But the 'Mahuang Crossbow' is a weapon to protect the country. Can you also make it and give it to the Jin people?
You know, once the Jin people get such a powerful weapon, they will be even more powerful.

If the Jin people march south, burning, killing and looting, will the sharp arrows you made with your own hands shoot at your own parents, wives and children?"

Dai Shan was stunned and said in astonishment: "Mahuang Crossbow? I am in charge of the work in the Capital Works Office, and I have heard that the court has just developed a new crossbow named 'Mahuang Crossbow'.

It is said that this Mahuang Crossbow is more powerful than the previous Kedi Bow, but I have never made a Mahuang Crossbow, I have never seen the blueprint, and I don’t know how to make one.”

Yang Yuan sneered, "You still want to deceive me? Then let me ask you, you and Cao Gui, Li Shangguang, Ying Xing and others have received far more materials than usual for repairing bows and crossbows in the past two months. What did you use them for?"

Dai Shan stammered, "It's used to make... to make the Divine Fire Flying Crow!"

Yang Yuan was stunned: "Divine Fire Flying Crow?"

This name sounds familiar. It seems to be the magic weapon of Luo Xuan, the Flame Immortal from Fire Dragon Island in Romance of the Gods?
Dai Shan thought Yang Yuan didn't believe him, so he quickly explained, "It's true. If our craftsmen make it carefully, we can make rockets that can fire more than 60 at a time.

These rockets are placed in a cylinder. Each rocket has a fuse connected to a bus at the bottom of the cylinder. Once the bus is ignited, all the arrows are fired at the same time, as dense as wind and rain.

However, it is impossible to make it without a skilled craftsman, and the rocket arrows cannot reach far in the open air, cannot be used in the rain, and cannot be used against the wind. Once the arrows are shot, they fly all over the sky and cannot be detected. The conditions are too harsh, so the army has never adopted them. "

Yang Yuan was confused. It wasn't a Mahuang crossbow? They were making a rocket?
Yang Yuan asked, "Since the army doesn't use them, why are you making rockets?"

Dai Shan said: "Sell it to the Japanese!"

Yang Yuan was stunned again. Why did the Japanese get brought up in this?

Yang Yuan asked in surprise: "Sell it to the Japanese? Are you sure?"

Dai Shan nodded repeatedly: "I am sure! I am Commander Shen's confidant, he will not hide anything from me.

We built four rockets in total. After they were built, Commander Shen took one of the rockets with him to a place in the suburbs.

There were soldiers guarding there, and the security was extremely strict. Commander Shen led the men into the valley, where someone was already waiting.

There were three people in total. I only recognized Shanyin Military Commander Chu Yuan, and I didn’t recognize the other two.

But although one of them was wearing Song Dynasty clothes, I could recognize him at a glance that he was from Japan.

The other person whom I don't recognize seems to be the most prestigious. I saw that even the Chu governor was very respectful to him, and the Japanese man also nodded and bowed to him. "

The more Yang Yuan listened, the more confused he became.

Japanese?

Could it be that Chu Yuan was privately manufacturing weapons in order to sell them to the Japanese for profit?

But how much money can you make if you only build four rockets?

Moreover, if the products were to be sold overseas and in such a small quantity, would he need to be so cautious?
They actually deployed troops to block the valley, and then conducted test firing in the valley? This is not a large-scale arms deal.

Another question, who could be the person that made Chu Yuan act so respectfully?

If Chu Yuan privately manufactured weapons to make money, would he find someone with a higher status than him to go to the valley to watch the test firing?
What's more, the Japanese was also very flattering to this person. When did Party A become so lowly?
Yang Yuan thought for a long time, then said slowly: "Think about this matter carefully, don't miss any details, and then repeat it to me carefully!"

Yang Yuan has already decided that even if Chu Yuan was not the one who made the "Ma Huang Crossbow", the blame must be put on him.

However, he also had to find out about Chu Yuan's private manufacture of weapons.

After all, he could only put the blame on Chu Yuan, as this man would eventually have to be handed over for trial.

If Chu Yuan confessed to smuggling weapons to the Japanese at that time, and the higher-ups investigated, he had to ensure that the evidence of his frame-up would not be overturned.

"Yes, yes, I will think about it carefully. I will definitely think about it carefully." Dai Shan thought for a long time and began to explain again.

His thoughts were rather chaotic, and he basically said whatever came to his mind. "That noble man has a Lin'an accent, looks very noble, and is less than forty years old."

"After testing the rocket, the Japanese man once said, 'With this weapon, it will surely succeed, please rest assured.' Oh, he said this to the nobleman in Lin'an."

Yang Yuan frowned. From the tone of his voice, it seemed that the Japanese man might not be the buyer. It seemed more like the nobleman from Lin'an wanted the Japanese man to do something for him?

Dai Shan was still thinking hard, just wanting to give his boss a satisfactory explanation. He didn't want to go to the room opposite, even if he died.

"Hmm... Commander Shen doesn't seem to know much either. It seems...

Chief Supervisor Chu only told him to find someone to make rockets and didn't tell him anything else.

Because I was also surprised when he saw the Japanese man.

When I came back with Commander Shen, I heard Commander Shen talking to himself, guessing the identity of the nobleman from Lin'an."

Yang Yuan couldn't help but ask, "Since they are so respectful to the nobleman of Lin'an, didn't they call him by any name?"

Dai Shan said with a bitter face: "That Japanese guy has always been called Your Excellency.

Chu Dujian just said 'you see', 'you think', 'you believe', but never used any other title. "

After hearing this, Yang Yuan began to think.

If the Shanyin Bingma Dujian, a man with a large number of troops and great power, could be so respectful, then that person must be of extraordinary status.

However, the government wanted to put the blame on Chu Yuan. Who told him that he was promoted by the Qin family?

Therefore, even if someone wanted to rescue him, or Chu Yuan confessed the secret of privately building rockets, he should not be able to be blamed.

No! Chu Yuan was promoted by the Qin family! Could that Lin'an noble be...

He is less than forty years old, could it be Qin Hui?
I'll have to go back and check if he has come to Shanyin recently.

If it is really Qin Hui, this matter will be a bit tricky.

If Qin Hui wanted to sell rockets to the Japanese, and there were only three tubes, then it couldn't be selling weapons.

Perhaps the Qin family wanted to support a certain Japanese daimyo and use this weapon to assassinate that person's enemy.

If the Qin family supports a daimyo to ascend to power, then the Qin family and Japan can establish very large trade relations.

Cao Yong alone can earn more than one million strings of cash a year from the port of Bodo, let alone the Qin family.

In this case, although this matter is not decent, it is not enough to serve as evidence to bring down Chu Yuan. With the power of the Qin family, they can help him clear it.

"With this weapon, we will surely succeed, please rest assured!" This is what the Japanese man said. If I follow my way of thinking, this sentence makes sense.

Hiss~~, in this case, the blame... should be put on Shen of course?

With his status, I'm afraid he won't satisfy the government...

Yang Yuan was thinking about it when Dai Shan suddenly said in surprise, "Ah, I remember now. After the test firing, I was ordered to destroy the remaining barrels.

The villain squatted by the river, disassembled the quiver into pieces and let them float away with the water.

The carriage of the nobleman from Lin'an was parked under a big tree by the river. When the Chu Dujian and the Japanese man came forward to see the nobleman off, they exchanged a few words.

Yang Yuan leaned forward, stared at him and asked, "What did they say?"

Dai Shan said: "The chief supervisor of Chu said, Boyang, I have risked my life and property to follow you till death."

Boyang, my brother...

This Boyang should be the courtesy name of the nobleman in Lin'an. Whose courtesy name was Boyang? Qin Hui?
Yang Yuan thought about it anxiously and wrote down the name.

As for whether it is pronounced as Bobobo or Yangyangyang, don't worry about it. Just remember the pronunciation and go back to ask Xiao Luo.

If he couldn't even find out such a small thing, he wouldn't be living up to his reputation as a "busybody".

Dai Shan frowned, thinking hard, and continued, "I didn't understand what the nobleman from Lin'an said.

Then he laughed and said to Chu Dujian, "Yuexi Jinla Luo, Shenhuo Jiu Wuyi, you will not regret it."

What kind of heavenly dialect is this?

Yang Yuan knew that this sentence must be very important, but he didn't understand its meaning at all.

Dai Shan thought Yang Yuan didn't hear clearly, so he repeated it again: "Yuexi Jinlaluo, Shenhuojiu Wuyi!"

Dai Shan explained sheepishly: "This is what I heard."

Divine Fire should refer to the Divine Fire Flying Crow, but the other characters...

Yang Yuan took a deep breath and wrote down on the paper "Yuexi Jinla Luo, Shenhuojiu Wuyi!"

It seems that this mystery cannot be solved by Dai Shan, so I will write it down first.

Yang Yuan asked Dai Shan many more questions, and Dai Shan told him in detail over and over again about his rocket test in the valley.

He repeated the details of the nobleman from Lin'an and the Japanese man several times, and when he couldn't say anything more, Yang Yuan asked Chen Feng to take the man away.

Yang Yuan walked out of the underground palace. It was midnight and the sky was full of stars.

Yang Yuan took a deep breath of fresh air. The extra materials that the craftsmen had received already had a clear destination. He was afraid that this article would not be finished.

And what the hell is that “Yuexi Jinla Luo, Shenhuojiu Wuyi!”?
