Volume 9 Chapter 42

The fire around the pine and cypress house was soon suppressed and did not spread out under the spray of the water column from the wooden water dragon car of the neighborhood rescue and extinguishment meeting. /

however, it is clearly a man-made arson, and it is not hard to find that the people who committed arson all went to the east of the city.

The official response was not slow, and a cavalry led by several officers of the Department of criminal justice and military generals soon appeared on the streets, which became more noisy and complicated due to the fire.

In a large area near the east gate of the city, which was used to check the bulk cargo carefully, hundreds of gate guards have surrounded dozens of people, and more of them are coming along the city wall. At the same time, all gate gates that were supposed to be released for one hour are closed and no one is allowed to enter.

The cavalry from the barracks arrived quickly.

The calmness and calmness of dozens of people surrounded frowned at a middle-aged general in front of the cavalry wearing a locked piece of iron armor. He dared to set fire openly, stayed here, and could be so calm. There were only two possibilities. One was to have a terrorist force that ignored the whole town's garrison. The other was to have a background that didn't need to be worried at all.

Just as the middle-aged general began to slow down and prepare to stop outside the city gate guard's encirclement, he saw a young man in a wide sleeved shirt focusing on him.

"Who among you can decide?"

The young man suddenly made a quiet voice.

"Who are you?" The middle-aged general stopped and frowned even more.

The young man didn't respond. He just took a token from his sleeve and threw it away to the middle-aged general.

The middle-aged general took the golden token, which was extremely heavy. At one glance, he saw that it was extremely complicated. The best craftsman in houque city could not imitate the carved dragon patterns. His face suddenly changed.

He immediately thought about the west, and vaguely guessed the destination of the line.

After a short delay, he flew off the horse. In the surprised eyes of many people behind him, he waved to expand the encirclement of the garrison, and then went to the front of the young people and bowed to them.

Lin Xi bows in return.

"What do I need to do?"

The middle-aged general handed the golden token back to Lin Xi, then lowered his voice and asked respectfully.

"We're going to camp here. Send someone to defend us and isolate 500 steps of unmanned defense circle for us. The best archers in the general are all transferred here. Besides our people, no birds or animals can be put in. () "Lin Xi was not polite. Looking at the middle-aged general, he whispered:" we are going to check an extremely important opponent in the city From now on to tomorrow noon, the gate cannot be released, and no one can be allowed to leave houque city. "

The middle-aged general nodded without hesitation.

Although he knew that even if he only closed the city gate for half a day, he would certainly suffer from the pressure from numerous large businesses, but he was very clear at the moment who and whom the war was. He knew that even if the governor was here, he would choose to implement the other side's request.

"After putting out the remaining fire in pine and cypress houses, set up a cordon to prohibit anyone from entering the fire site, otherwise the people who enter will probably die." Looking at the middle-aged general, Lin Xi added.

The middle-aged general looked fierce. "Is there anything else I can do?"

Lin Xi pondered for a while, and saw that ankeyi was coming slowly in the distance. He whispered again: "issue the martial law. Before we leave tomorrow, forbid anyone to go to the high places in the city, and collect all the brass hawk eyes first. Arrange people at high places around us. Anyone who is suspicious of spying on us will be arrested. "

……

Because I escaped from the center of pines and cypresses in a hurry, I couldn't cover my tracks. At the same time, I only had time to take out three carriages.

One of the biggest carriages was naturally used by Lin Xi as a place for negotiation.

"What happened?"

Gao Yanan looked directly at Lin Xi and asked.

She knew that Lin Xi could not know more than her, so she thought the whole thing was extremely strange.

"In short, it is said that cangyue has a very powerful character named gongsunquan, who is a master of poison refining. Tonight, he wants to kill all the people in the center of pines and cypresses and hit our team hard. " Looking at her eyes, Lin Xi explained concisely: "we found the person who launched the attack, but that person is likely to be a subordinate of gongsunquan, not gongsunquan himself."

"Kill everyone in that big Inn?"

At first, Gao Yanan, who thought that Lin Xi had something to hide from himself and even had some anger on his face, suddenly turned pale.

Jiang Xiaoyi, Bian Linghan and Meng Bai also froze, shocked and unbelievable.

"How could you find gongsunquan fighting?" An Ke Yi looks at Lin Xi like a book she can't understand.

"I don't want to lie, but there are some things that even if I do explain them, you'll find ridiculous." Lin Xi looked at an Keyi and Gao Yanan and others, and said with a wry smile: "so don't ask me why I know I just know. "

Jiang Xiaoyi and Bian Linghan look at each other and smile bitterly. They have seen many unexplained things happened to Lin Xi, so in their hearts, they all think that Lin Xi may have some strange intuition.

Meng Bai is stupefied, just shivering all over, thinking that Lin Xi is like an unknown monster.

Gao Yanan thought of a conversation between himself and Lin Xi in the college, and frowned, but he no longer asked what.

Encore is obviously slow. She has been thinking about it for a long time. Suddenly, she seems to have figured out some key problems. There is a light in her eyes that has never been seen before.

"What do you mean when you asked me how many people I could poison quickly at once?" She also no longer asked, but try to control their own mood, looking at Lin Xi asked.

"I have come up with a possible way to find out the real gongsunquan. The premise is that you must absolutely believe in me and carry out my orders. I need you to be able to poison many people at one time." Lin Xi looks at the deepest part of an Keyi's eyes, and from the gloss that an Keyi conceals in the black pupil, he knows that the appearance is bookish, but in fact, the extremely intelligent female professor probably guesses that she has the talent of "being a God" from some deeds of president Zhang and the unexplained things that happen to her at the moment, as well as vice president Xia's special attention to herself. But ankeyi is a person that vice president Xia and himself trust very much, so he doesn't worry, knowing that ankeyi will try his best to cover up the identity of "jiangshen".

"Poison all the people in a large area like songbaiju once, can you do it?" Lin Xi then asked earnestly.

Encore took a look at Lin Xi, and suddenly thought of the performance of the fire in the qingluan college. Her eyes were brighter at the deepest point, and she seemed to nod a little too hard: "yes."

"What are you going to do?" Gao Yanan looked at Lin Xi and said, "this plan should be clear, right?"

"I don't know."

Lin Xi looked at Gao Yanan apologetically and said, "but I always think the real gongsunquan can't help coming to see us I shot an arrow yesterday. The power of the arrow shot by Xiaohei is too different from that of the long bow of the general soul soldier. Maybe he can't help coming to see Mr. an or the archer who sent this arrow. Or refuse is to give up, will continue to do Or extremely unwilling to see what kind of opponents broke his game. Or unwilling to fail, unwilling to be looked down upon by us, to remind us that he is still alive There are always some weaknesses in human nature. For whatever reason, if he wants to visit us closely tomorrow, I may find him out. "

……

The martial order was soon issued to the whole city.

In the suddenly tense atmosphere, all the caravans and travelers who just stayed by way spent the night in the uneasy situation.

After sunrise, all the people inside and outside the city found that all the gates were closed and still forbidden to pass.

Many caravans, unprepared and unprepared, are about to suffer some heavy losses and start to rush to use all available means to get out of the city.

However, all these activities were in vain. Even some big businesses that even the governor usually wanted to sell some face were politely refused, and even one person could not leave the city.

This made all the people in houque city even more shocked. They didn't know what a serious criminal to hunt.

And all the people in the waiting bird City knew that they were not far from the east gate of the city, so they stationed a line of people and horses, which is said to be the people and horses who set fire to pine and cypress houses yesterday, but those people were not arrested, but protected instead. It is said that only silver notes were sent out to compensate for the loss of songbaiju.

For a while, all the people in houque City couldn't help but guess the origin of the team.

Because I don't know when I can get in and out of the city, and most of the people who are eager to get out of the city want to be checked and cleared at the first time, by noon, both inside and outside the city have been lined up for several miles.

Suddenly, there was a commotion among the long dragons in the city.

Because at this time, some of the defenders who had prevented the long dragon from getting too close to the gate and guarding the line of people and horses showed signs of shrinking.

And Lin Xi and an Keyi, at the moment, came out of the strange team in their eyes.

"Teacher, please do something to poison all the people within the sight of the city!"

Lin Xi looked at the long dragon made up of bustling people. He was sure that he could hear it from only two people.

An Keyi turns around and looks at Lin Xi. "I can poison But there can't be enough antidotes... "

"I know." Lin Xi looked at her and nodded seriously, "but I still ask the teacher to believe me, even if it's ridiculous Please do it as soon as possible, and don't let anyone in front of us leave. "
