Dafeng’s Night Squad

Chapter 68



68 Ore (1)

The carriage quickly left the inner city, and several good official stallions were waiting at the city gate with the White laborers.

Xu Qi ‘an and the others got on fast horses and passed through the streets and downtown areas of the outer city. It only took them an hour to leave the outer city. The six riders immediately sped up and rushed to the great Yellow Mountain.

the official horses run really fast. This is almost 50 yards. Could the horses in my previous life run this fast … Xu Qian muttered in his heart.

Was this the difference in the amount of spiritual energy that would often appear in novels?

This guess was reasonable, because the instinct of Qi cultivation was a method of breathing.

The group arrived at the edge of the great Yellow Mountain at noon. They stopped by the official road and tied the horse rope to a tree trunk on the side of the road. After eating some dry food, they took a narrow path into the mountain.

The six of them rushed forward and arrived at the river that flowed under the great Yellow Mountain after 15 minutes.

After searching along the river for a moment, they found a few blurry footprints, about three feet long, one and a half feet wide, and four toes.

Lu Qing and his two colleagues took off the bags on their backs, took out the explosives, and distributed them to Xu Qi ‘an and the other two.

with the claw marks as the center, we’ll go downstream and throw explosives. You guys go upstream and see if you can force the monster out of the river.

This was a plan that had been set up long ago.

The DA Feng dynasty was very strict with the management of gunpowder. The recipe was kept a secret, and the materials needed to make gunpowder were all monopolized by the Imperial court.

Even the night watchman, Lu Qing, and the other Yamen’s fast hands only knew a little about the composition of gunpowder.

He could smell it.

Both parties lit the explosives and threw them into the river.

“BOOM!”

A muffled explosion rang out, and the river water splashed up several feet high.

Soon, the explosives were used up. The group stood on the shore and looked at the rolling muddy waves. They waited for a long time, but they did not see any monsters emerging from the river.

“It would be great if we had the help of the astrologers.” Xu Qi ‘an said with emotion.

The aura observation technique could lock onto the location of a demon by observing its demonic aura.

Song tingfeng snorted and said in a low voice, ” the astrologers of the Directorate of Celestials are nobler than us. They only listen to the Emperor. Don’t expect to bother them with such a small case.

The astrologers ‘warlocks were very noble? I don’t think so. You haven’t seen their expressions when they look at me with respect.

Xu Qi ‘an nodded in agreement.

When the two sides met, song tingfeng shrugged his shoulders. “It seems that it won’t come out. My suggestion is to go into the mountains and take a look. That is, if there really is something in the great Yellow Mountain.”

“First, check the area where the gray households are collecting limestones,” Xu Qi ‘an added.

Lu Qing muttered to himself before nodding.

The two groups of people entered the mountain in batches, one in front and one behind, separated by dozens of meters.

Song tingfeng looked at Lu Qing’s back and pouted, “”This Female Constable from the magistrate’s office has an amazing figure. Look at her butt, it’s tight and firm, and her legs are strong. Although the girls of the Academy’s workshop are full of life, they’re still too weak.”

.. agree. Moreover. this kind of woman who practices martial arts has waistlines, smooth curves, and tight thighs. She might even have. light abdominal muscle …’ This made me think of my wife, Tifa … but she seems to be used to wrapping her chest, ” Xu Qi ‘an said. this is not good. It will cause her chest to deform.

Song tingfeng was stunned for a moment before he burst into laughter. you’ve noticed it as well. I’m lacking an interesting companion like you. Zhu guangxiao is a taciturn person who can’t even produce a fart with three blows.

For men, talking about dirty things was always an interesting entertainment that killed time.

Zhu guangxiao looked at him and kept quiet.

House Hui mainly gathered at the main peak of the great Yellow Mountain. From a distance, the group could see the exposed rocks of the mountain, which looked like white spots on a human face.

Years and years of mining had destroyed this towering main peak, leaving thousands of holes.

Both parties searched aimlessly in the mountains for a long time, but they did not find anything of value.

When they were drinking water together, Lu Qing said, “”Not only does the great Yellow Mountain have high-quality limestone, but it also has rich vegetation, which can be cut down on the spot to be used as dye. It is very convenient for the gray households to open the kiln, as they dig and burn, and burn and shatter.

“There’s a river at the foot of the mountain, so transportation is convenient. It’s easy to save firewood, but it’s easy to gain.”

Another bailiff from the magistrate’s office added, that’s why the taxes are heavy. After we can’t mine the ashes, we’re dead.

Therefore, he reported it to the government office … Xu Qi ‘an was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, ” the high taxes have driven the refugees. The People’s wealth is the most delicious food.

The crowd fell silent, and no one dared to answer.

Song tingfeng coughed and changed the topic, “”The demons don’t come out of the water, so we don’t have enough manpower to search the mountain. Constable Lu, do you have any suggestions?”

Although he was still lusting after her body just now, song tingfeng would not look down on her because of her big chest and perky butt.

Lu Qing pondered and said,”we’ll split into three groups of two. We’ll look for the village chiefs in the nearby villages.”I’ll go to the magistrate and ask for a sorcerer from the Directorate of Celestials to help.”

that’s a waste of time, ” Xu Qi ‘an said, waving his hand. choose one of you to find the village chief of the nearby village. The rest of you stay here.

Lu Qing frowned.

“If there’s nothing, I’ll go to the Directorate of Celestials to find a Warlock,” Xu Qi ‘an said.

He said it as if he was very confident … Would the sorcerers of the Directorate of Celestials listen to him?

Lu Qing examined Xu Qi ‘an for a moment, nodded slightly, and sent a companion to invite him.

In less than an hour, the bailiff who was at the peak of the spirit refinement realm returned with an old man.

“My surname is Zhang, and I’m the chief of hegou village outside the great Yellow Mountain.” The old man saluted in an irregular manner and said excitedly, ”

“This lowly one has finally waited for the few Sirs. If you still didn’t come, the people in the village would not have enough food to eat.”

This matter had dragged on for half a year.

Lu Qing stared at him with a sharp gaze and a dignified expression. “Let me ask you, where did the last ten people who entered the mountain die?”

“In the South …” “They entered from the opposite direction of the river,” the chief pointed to the South of the mountain range.

“There’s a kiln there that burns ashes?” song tingfeng asked.

After the exploration, they found that the place with the most ash was not far from the river. The ash-gray households took a detour into the mountain, so they definitely wouldn’t dare to choose this side to burn ash.

This was because no one could escape once the demon came ashore.

“A few, not as many as here,” the chief nodded.

“Take us there.” Lu Qing said in a deep voice.

“Yes!” The chief seemed to be very afraid of this Female Constable.

The group headed south. The mountain road was rugged, and climbing was extremely difficult. He also had to take care of the chief, this rotten old man, so he didn’t walk quickly.

“This is the place.” The chief stopped on the narrow and winding path and pointed ahead. It was an open space that had been excavated.

There were piles of rocks and plants. There were a few cave-like kiln that was used to burn ashes.

The few of them searched the place but did not find any valuable clues. The place had already been cleaned up.

Song tingfeng and Lu Qing looked at each other and shook their heads.

“Let’s take a look at the brothel,” Xu Qi ‘an said.

The few of them took the materials on the spot, lit up a torch, drew out their swords, and carefully entered the earthen kiln.

They had thought that the kiln was only used to burn ashes and would not be too deep, but as they walked, Xu Qi ‘an and the others realized that something was wrong.

How was this a brothel? it was clearly a tunnel dug out by people, and they walked for the time it took to make a cup of tea before they reached the end.

Song tingfeng squinted his eyes. there’s no need to dig so deep into the kiln. It’s obvious that someone is excavating something. There are no traces of smoke or fire on the stone walls.

“What’s going on?” Lu Qing called the chief and asked.

“I … I don’t know …” The head of the police was stunned.

Xu Qi ‘an held the torch and observed the rock wall and the ground for a while. He picked up a palm-sized white ore.

Was this what they were mining?

This doesn’t seem to be limestone.

Xu Qi ‘an exerted force in his palm, and Qi surged. With a ” ka Cha ” sound, the White ore was crushed into powder.

He raised the torch and scattered the powder into the fire.

Hu!

The torch instantly burst into flames, bright yellow with a hint of dark purple.

Saltpeter?

Xu Qi ‘an’s pupils shrank.

The sudden rise of the flame shocked everyone in the cave. The sound of the saber condensing Qi could be heard.

Seeing that it was Xu Qi ‘an’s doing, Lu Qing was slightly angry. “What are you doing?”
