Daqing Criminal Division

"gas."

"This kiln has been secretly producing gas that is invisible to human eyes, so you guys have been able to make this in Shuntian Prefecture for so long without anyone noticing it, because this thing It is invisible and intangible.”

--"gas."

"Am i right?"

The revelation of the truth behind the scenes of this case has undoubtedly become a confrontation about life and death.

Duan Xiao, who raised his hands to his ears and tilted his head expressionlessly, looked at the flower-backed spider on the back of the black-clothed leader's hand, and the firefoil on his finger, and naturally understood that in such an environment , If the opponent wastes a second to expand the hidden danger in the kiln, it may cause a real crisis.

But the most important evidence of the crime still remains inside this seemingly ordinary kiln.

If the place is allowed to be destroyed, the arrest of these criminals will also lead to insufficient evidence in the end.

In such an extremely dangerous situation, all three of them were running fast in their minds, thinking and making decisions about the current form and the situation they were in.

Fu Yu.

Duan Owl.

And the black-clothed guide who held a fire source in one hand and threatened them to seek escape opportunities, maintained this three-way confrontation in the direction of their respective sides.

In the huge clean pool behind the three of them.

The bursting sound of the small bubbles that 'gurgled' up due to the internal reaction of the gas in the connected bamboo tube was still ringing.

The wooden roller above reacts the wooden barrel on the hemp rope in the way of circulating water flow, and the irritating smell of gas is still exuding in the air, and this type of dust and gas may occur at any time in such an environment. Their lives were buried here because of this small cluster of flames.

Under such circumstances, it would definitely be the best to get rid of this black-clothed spider quickly.

For this reason, Duan Xiao and Fu Yu circled the gangster as much as possible while looking for the best time to violently arrest them.

At the same time, with half of his body leaning back, Fu Yu silently withdrew his hands from the safe range on one side, and once again tried to get close to the two quick-fire guns on the ground.

During this process, Duan Xiao, who helped him cover, is bound to speak again to attract the other party's attention.

Therefore, he only leaned forward slightly, and turned his shoulders slightly to express his desire to continue communicating, and then tried step by step to use the direction of his fingers, and his louder and louder voice to attract the other party's sight and hearing. He looked to Fu Yu's side.

"The special ore smoke, or invisible gas, that you produced can be traced back to the Western Jin Dynasty at the earliest. Since you just know that you are threatening us at the empty cylinder on the right with a fire bag, you must be very good at this type of ore Smoke collection."

"Behind you, on the left is a kind of gas that is lighter than the gas we inhale. This gas can help objects fly. This gas comes from human urine in Fushou Keng, so the bamboo tube is collected downwards, while the one on the right, It is a gas that is heavier than the gas we inhale, and under certain open flames and freezing, it will explode, and the source of this gas is lime."

This is a very basic hijacking live negotiation technique.

That is to say, among the three, I act as the active party, so that the gangster can be completely guided by his vision and behavior under the condition of confusion, so as to carry out the next arrest.

Fu Yu noticed this scene with two eyes of different colors under the light.

Needless to say, he also cooperated with Duan Xiao on the other side and withdrew one of his feet towards one side with a little friction.

Within two arms of him, he can retrieve his quick-fire gun in a blink of an eye, but only if his hand can't be misled by vision and can't detonate the other side throughout the kiln Mars in their hands, otherwise they still can't get out of here safely and capture this prisoner one by one.

step.

Half a step.

A sweat slipped from the bridge of their noses and between their brows because of the intense pursuit.

But the heartbeats of the two people who were so far apart were extraordinarily steady and calm at this moment. In other words, people like Fu Yu and Duan Xiao couldn't be afraid of any kind of danger.

They are like tigers and eagles stalking their natural enemies.

With a natural tacit understanding and strong psychology, even in such a closed environment in front of him, they are able to deal with all this with ease.

"...shut up! I said shut up!"

I don't know if the plan was exposed, or I felt great resistance to this pressing arrest.

The behavior of the black-clothed seductive person obviously began to be chaotic, and even the face that had remained calm at first showed a slight emotional breakdown, and he only used the other hand to wipe the sweat on his cheek violently.

However, he wiped the pain unbearably, and his palms and fingers were exposed because they had been hiding in the kiln for many years and engaged in gas refining, so the hands that had already festered and peeled were suddenly exposed.

With such hands, every piece of white and swollen old skin and bright red new skin grow densely like moss on the palm of this black-clothed attractive palm.

Sweat made his hands ache so badly.

But I have to admit that this is what they conspired about the gas. Seeing this situation, Duan Xiao didn't intend to continue to let him expand the risk, and only one shot of strong medicine completely exposed their actions road--

"Your hands are the best proof. Years of soaking in lime has caused your skin to be severely burned and polluted."

"More than 1000 years ago, an official in the Western Jin Dynasty discovered a strange phenomenon. One day, he saw a servant pouring a basin of water on a pile of burnt white stones, and a puff of white smoke rose instantly. Nausea, nausea."

"The burned white stone he recorded, which is commonly known as limestone in the folk, has long been concluded by predecessors that this white stone contains a special gas that will appear when it meets water."

"The gas itself is heavier than our normal gas, so it doesn't help the sheepskin ball to float."

"But after it is sealed and fermented, it will produce another kind of gas, the Fushougou's countless fecal fluids are fused. The weight itself is lighter than the gas we breathe. The entire Shuntian Prefecture."

"Yuanjiazhuang lime kiln uses slaked lime and fermented urine, and after the two things are hydrolyzed at the same time, this kind of special gas after fusion can be produced. This kind of gas is lighter than our usual ground gas, which can make the person who was witnessed inflated. The sheepskin can complete a floating in place without air leakage.”

"In the wind of this season in Shuntianfu, the sheepskin ball was gliding down the slope, because the reaction of hydrated lime and urea inside produced a large amount of this gas, which made the sheepskin balloon complete a perfect flight. "

——"This is the secret of Shuntian Mansion about how a sheepskin balloon flew above everyone's heads at night."

At the same time that the confrontation between the three was fixed in this sentence, Duan Xiao and Fu Yu looked at each other from the air, and locked the blind spot of the gangster's perspective on the hollow bamboo tube at their feet and the pool behind them Only then did Zi Zhong speak,

"So, this is exactly the same as five years ago, using the 'speeding car' to enter Shuntian Mansion first, and then waiting for an opportunity to attack in an unknown way."

"The rest of the behind-the-scenes of the Five Pigs case has been hidden for so many years, but this time, you finally showed your feet. This time, the target is the King of Tibet and the Living Buddha who have entered Shuntian Mansion!"

"...I said shut up! Shut up!"

When these words fell, it was like pinching a just right time.

Thoroughly enraged by Duan Xiao's series of words, he suddenly raised one of his rotten hands, the black-clothed receptionist and Fu Yu and Duan Xiao on both sides also moved together.

A little bit of spark brought up by the fire bag that came out of the man's hand was thrown into the air by the black-clothed spider.

Seeing that clusters of flames were like a continuous flame in the surrounding air, they were about to fall to the ground, igniting the ubiquitous mixed gas in the kiln, but Duan Ou kicked to the side first. A hollow bamboo tube, and smashed the spark off the wooden barrel hanging from the pulley above.

The water in the bucket that quickly fell to the ground above the heads of the three extinguished the flames that were not ignited by the mixed gas.

The black-clothed spider waving its arms upwards rushed forward ferociously and wanted to snatch it, but was kicked directly into the pool behind him by Fu Yu, who had prevented him from going mad and hurting people again.

With a "touch", a huge splash was made in the pool behind him due to the person falling.

This powerful and frightening blow directly kicked this strong and burly man out of the narrow chasing range.A burly man, the moment he fell, his head sank all of a sudden. After he was scared to death, he writhed like a bug and was dragged up from the pool by Fu Yu and Duan Xiao.

The ground was covered with splashes of water.

At this point, all the crimes have been exposed, and the black-clothed leader who was pressed to the ground to prevent him from going mad again also gritted his teeth and closed his eyes, dripping cold sweat and had to be arrested without a fight.

"Say, who ordered you here? Who is the fourth 'spider' that has been hiding in Shuntian Mansion for many years?"

"Yes, yes... ah!! It's that person—that person!"

That name hidden under the darkness, Fu Yu and Duan Xiao heard it clearly in an instant, and it also made the two of them look at each other with a gloomy expression.

On the ground, the facial features were completely exposed, and the perpetrator whose identity was just waiting to be exposed also twitched against the ground in pain.

Then, the black-clothed man who had no longer the power to resist after being pulled off the black scarf screamed in pain as his arm was pinched, and then Fu Yu and Duan Xiao grabbed his hands and confessed word by word. road,

"Just tonight."

"Tonight...Shenwumen, the fourth spider is...right there."

"There is Desheng Bridge, there is also Shenwumen, there is also suburban land, there are... a total of three groups of people, they are all our people... they are all people we want to send to kill the fifth Living Buddha Luosang Yixi Besangbu—"

……

The words of the black-clothed spider who was finally caught and brought to justice completely opened the prelude to tonight's Shuntian change, and also exposed the attack that this group of people had planned for a long time behind the scenes again.

Fu Yu and Duan Xiao immediately understood why the sheepskin balloons appeared again and again in Shuntian Mansion.

It turned out that, as they had guessed before, all this was the same as five years ago, this time one of the five pigs waited for an opportunity to commit crimes again.

But before that, the truth about how the Five Pigs entered the Shenwumen without anyone knowing it was also revealed.

Because during the imperial city celebration, if they use the kind of sheepskin balloons they made before that can fly in the air to approach Shenwumen again and cause commotion, then when the people escape in chaos, they can use the balloons to carry them. Another kind of heavy gas caused by burning lime, triggering a city-wide gas explosion, may seriously injure the Tibetan mission, thus completely failing the diplomatic visit.

It's a pity that this bold and reckless plan has been exposed before it succeeds.

At this moment, the situation is already on the verge of death. Although they have captured some prisoners hiding in the lime kiln in Yuanjiazhuang, it is clear that the attack on the life and safety of the fifth Living Buddha, Luosang Yeshe Besangbu, has already begun.

Shenwumen.

It is the place where the mass-inspired square in the midfield begins in tonight's celebration.

At that time, there will be a cloud lantern show and Tibetan group dances, and the danger itself is very easy to ambush.

In addition, according to the usual etiquette, the elephant carts of the king of Tibet and the fifth living Buddha Luosang Yeshe Besangbu will pass through the center of the square and meet all the people on East Chang'an Avenue head-on. The place where the experimental successful sheepskin balloon attack caused a terrible and sensational commotion.

As for the Desheng Bridge and the rural land on the other side——

These two places are still a similar distance away from the Yuanjiayao where Fu Yu and Duan Xiao are at the moment. If they split up and rush there in the fastest way now, they may be able to catch up with the most important opportunity to solve this problem. Changes in the sky.

As a result, the two couldn't bear to think too much, and directly handed over the prisoners arrested by the kiln itself to other people on the side of the street, and each rode on Anxiang and Meihuazui to go to the two places first.

"The people from Costin and I will go to the outskirts first."

While talking, Fu Yu, who jumped onto the horse, was holding the rein with one hand, his black hair was scattered in front of his forehead, and he didn't forget to look back at Duan Xiao, who was also on the horse.

"You go to Desheng Bridge. If there is no accident, Fu Heng should be there. Let's meet at Shenwumen in the end."

"Well, be careful yourself. Dahasu is also in the suburbs. If you go there, he will give you internal support."

Duan Xiao glanced at the sky above the two of them and replied immediately.

"I see, and so do you."

After these words were explained, the two had already split up and moved together. Fu Yu, who was going to the rural areas, and Duan Xiao, who was going to the Desheng Bridge, were behind them like the red golden sunset behind them chasing time.

At the place where the sound of horseshoes stepped, the sky behind him gradually darkened as the entire imperial city got closer and closer to night.

On the road, ordinary people were still waving flowers and ribbons, hugging their children, waiting to go to the celebration at night to welcome the original diplomatic welcome ceremony, but only saw two horses coming from Tianfo Temple and crossing the road. , passed under several archways of the Red Temple, and disappeared in an instant.

unitary hour

Before the shock caused by the arrest of Yuanjiazhuang Lime Kiln in the whole city was exposed, the deployment of a secret counterattack had already begun.

The source of the investigation was whether the dozen or so empty gas cylinders originally packaged for the celebration had been transported to different locations in the city by members of the Black Organization, so Costin's people came in handy again.

This is the first time in five years.

Once again, the whole team of Costin Group officially carried out a secret mission to assist. It would be an exaggeration to say that all members were dispatched, but indeed they were also waiting for an opportunity to truly express their original determination to guard Shuntian.

the second quarter of the unitary hour

After receiving the letter, Chang Lingji, Liu Yong and others silently surrounded the Xisi Pailou.

The west fourth archway is the place where executions have been carried out in previous dynasties.

Here, before the execution, a shed was set up on the execution ground for the officials who supervised the beheading. In addition, a tall wooden pillar was erected to hang the head of the prisoner as a public display after the execution.

In the opposite perspective of several Costin roundups, a diplomatic negotiation is going on in the rural area in front of you, but the actual danger is also coming——

three quarters of the unitary hour

"bump--"

A red-clothed cannon salute resounded above the bustling capital.

On the side of the suburban area, a grand meeting of the courtiers of the two countries is in progress. Behind Wang Jie, who is wearing an official uniform, is followed by dozens of attendants holding golden butterflies. Among the golden butterflies are ruby ​​tops and peacock feathers. , which is a special gift from the emperor of Beijing to the Tibetans.

In this rural area, in addition to the rest of the officials, there are also several city gate leaders. The city gate leaders belong to the yamen of the infantry commander. A military official in the capital, in charge of the nine gates of the inner city of the capital, and the opening and closing of the seven gates of the outer city in the morning and evening, and inspecting the entry and exit.

After some meetings, the two sides need to conduct an etiquette handover ceremony.

During the process, the ceremony officer with the red-tasseled round-brimmed hat needs to straighten his posture first, then step forward with his left leg, put his left hand on his knee, pause for a while, keep his eyes level and balance his shoulders, the distance between the left and right legs should not be too large, and keep the left leg moving forward The natural distance, do not kick your legs backwards.

Correspondingly, the male ceremony officer of the Tibetan mission also stepped forward, and the maid presented a hada brought from the Potala Palace. From this point of view, this Tibetan man who used felt and fur to keep out the wind and cold The face is painted with ocher cream, which is a typical aristocratic dress.

He is wearing a satin gown with lotus patterns and double sleeves, trimmed with otter skin, a jeweled jewel and a knife at his waist, and colorful boots.

The other eighteen attendants are also dressed for the grand ceremony, wearing black felt hats and pleated trousers, with long-sleeved jackets made of colored satin or gold silk satin, colored satin drape, and head scarves or yellow bowl-shaped felt A hat, a purse at the waist, and single-soled leather boots.

In addition, from the introduction of the translator on the side, it can also be known that the Zao convoy also brought more than 420 horses of brocade, brocade, and various kinds of clothing materials, and [-] cattle and sheep.

This solemn etiquette was carried out in the suburbs under the watchful eyes of everyone. At the same time, Wang Jie, who had been waiting for a long time and couldn't hide his excitement, also stepped forward to read the ritual document, and a Tibetan translator beside him Deliver his words to the other person in their entirety.

【"The Son of Heaven will bestow the king of Tibet with a flower feather on his head and make him a minister of our country."】

【"These honors originate from the reign of the Holy Patriarch, which stipulated that important officials of the Tibetan local government must be appointed by the central government, and given corresponding flower feathers and high-grade clothing. "]

【"Hualing is the official position. I hope that the king of Tibet will be loyal to the emperor from now on, maintain the peace between the two races, and compose hymns together."】

【"Many thanks, Son of Heaven, our family came from the top of the snow-capped mountain in the Potala Palace."】

【"I am so grateful for the majesty of the Son of Heaven that I am amazed. My envoy is ignorant of the customs of your country. In the future, please follow the customs of your country. My envoy will not disagree with you."】

Saying this, the nobleman Ren Langjiezidan and the twenty vanguards also bowed their heads submissively one by one, protecting their chests with their arms, and prepared to take over the golden butterflies on the opposite side one by one. When he took over, a sudden change that no one expected in advance just happened——

Because when Wang Jie set off in a sedan chair, the dozens of water tanks wrapped in red silk ribbons he saw appeared at the scene in the suburbs at some point. Then, a standard servant lowered his voice and handed over to Wang Jian said something.

"Master Wang, it's time for us to go to the inner city."

As soon as this person approached, Wang Jian, who was talking with the Tibetan envoy, was forcibly interrupted, his expression darkened immediately, and he shouted a sentence.

"What are you? How dare you interrupt the conversation between this military plane and the Tibetan envoy here!"

In this regard, seeing that a circle of Tibetan envoys was already under control, he and the dozens of visitors behind him disguised as "slaves" also took a look at it, and suddenly held up a piece of paper.

"It doesn't matter what the name of the little one is. It's just a little Zhang Jing who is used to being a knife and pen official. He can't be considered a big man, but Mr. Wang Ji, you and these Tibetan envoys can't escape today—"

As soon as this sentence fell, Wang Zhen suddenly realized that something was wrong and had been strangled by this person. He immediately screamed in fright, golden flowers danced in his eyes, and he was hit on the waist several times.

The other officials in front of them, including the Tibetan aristocrat Ren Langjietsedan, were so frightened that they fell to the ground, but they didn't expect the scene to suddenly get out of control.

"You! Who are you! How dare you hijack a court official!!"

Wang Zhen, who was trembling all over, said that his eyes were about to burst, but he only dared to grab the hand of the 'black-clothed spider' and did not dare to struggle.

The black-clothed spider and the 'fourth spider' deliberately chose to violently kidnap Wang Jie and two officials from the Ministry of Rites at the Xisi Pailou, and launched an attack on the Southern Military Aircraft and the security forces of the entire Beijing and China. This is already a large-scale publicity. provocative.

"Master Wang, what we want is for you to cooperate with us so that your life can be saved."

"Go, get out of here immediately."

"To the inner city—"

After saying this, the group of black-clothed spiders was ready to withdraw with their people.

At this time, if they are let go, the safety of the outer city may be completely messed up. It is also under such circumstances that a figure that the gang of black-clothed spiders did not pay attention to before appeared among the officials who were restrained. Suddenly troubled.

Dahasu, this was probably the most daring thing he'd ever done in his life.

Because just when the black-clothed spider was about to take away the stunned Wang Ji and the Tibetan emissary, he, who had kept his head still, made a gesture to the opposite roof.

Immediately, Chang Ling and Liu Yong, who were the first marchers, rushed to the ground twice.

The black-clothed spiders looked up in surprise, but they didn't expect Dahasu to take advantage of the chaos and drag the Tibetan envoy and Wang Jie under the carriage next to them, quickly exposing the main target to Haidongqing on the opposite side——

the second quarter of xu

"Da da--"

In the darkness, Fu Yu was lying on the roof of the opposite archway, holding the flintlock gun in his hand without saying a word, and was facing the hijacking gang that had appeared in front of him.

He is waiting for an opportunity.

A real chance to hit the opposite target.

And under such circumstances, the commotion from the opposite side and the roof in front at the same time reminded him that the time had come.

At that moment, one finger was clenched tightly, a strand of curly hair on his forehead was hanging by his ear, the whole face that was full of murder because of the black eyepatch, and the normal eyeball that was left outside were all overwhelmed. People have a condescending, extremely terrifying sense of pressure.

【"Everyone is of one heart, loyal and loyal."】

【"Happiness must be shared with joy, and worry must be shared with sorrow."】

【"Though we live differently, we wish to die together in death."】

"boom--"

A burst of flames shot up into the sky, illuminating the loud noise in mid-air.

The firepower of the flintlock on his arm came from the darkness above the West Fourth archway, and the black-clothed spider who had kidnapped Wang Jie and the nobles of the King of Tibet was shot right in the forehead, leaving a bloody hole. The black-clothed villain instantly lost his footing.

The rest jumped off the roof at once, and formally started arresting them. Because during the three days before Haidongqing was specially required by Master Haiwang for intensive training, Fu Yu's skills this time were much more agile than before, and he was not the same as before. That's how I kept myself on purpose.

Swooping down like an eagle, Fu Yu, who clasped one of his arms, swung the long hair tied behind him from mid-air to one side due to the range of motion.

The personal aura that had been suppressed in his heart for so many years was actually completely released by himself.

In the eyes of the enemy reflected in the darkness, there is no longer the laziness, decadence, or carelessness of the past, but only a kind of blood that belongs to Fucha Fuyu.

At this moment, it was as if he had returned to the most unrestrained Fu Yu five years ago.

The haze in his heart that had severely damaged him and made him lose everything, including the one shot that kept his eyes bright all his life, seemed to be completely released.

Don't say it is in front of you, even if there are thousands of troops coming, it seems that they can't beat his strong and amazing spirit.

"Fu Yu! Well done!"

Chang Ling, who was lying on the eaves directly behind to cooperate with him, saw his heart skip a beat, but he almost cried out excitedly. They have been waiting for this moment for many years, but when it really came to Fu The moment Yu came back, he was still

Several people swarmed up, and from the eaves and the roof, I saw that Haidongqing's people controlled the situation within a few strokes. Although the process was a bit thrilling, Dahasu was successfully rescued because of his own wit. Saved the situation at the last moment.

This side of the suburbs.

Safe escape.

It's a pity that the other two sides are still carrying out dangerous and tense rescues. Seeing that Fu Yu was done here, he turned around and left immediately, and the two remaining people chatted.

"Yo, colleague, thank you, just forgot to ask your name?"

Dahasu, who had escaped from the crisis that nearly killed him just now, wished he could kick the fat man under his feet again, heaved a sigh of relief, and took advantage of the chaos to say hello in a decent way.

"Oh, you're welcome, colleagues, Haidongqing, Saltuk Changling."

Changling is also a decent person and carried out the historic "establishment of diplomatic relations" on behalf of his own department.

"Oh, I've been looking forward to it for a long time, Nan Junji, Dahasu, it's a pleasure to meet you."

The friendly cross-departmental handshake of these two guys who are quite good at being themselves has led to the first "official establishment of diplomatic relations" between the two departments that usually have no contact with each other.

"Hey, do you think those two bastards can make it this time?"

With akimbo on his hips, Dahasu bumped into Chang Ling beside him with emotion.

"definitely will."

For some reason, Chang Ling was quite serious this time. After speaking, he looked at the red-golden sky and smiled confidently, and then he lay down flat and let out a long breath.

"The two of them are Nanjunji and Haidongqing."

"This time, the whole of Shuntian is waiting for them to shine again—"
