Under no talent, is a world famous general

Chapter 159 Sudden change
Is it too late to tell Ping Hongru when the door of the workshop is opened?

Qin Yi frowned, thinking to himself.

Logically speaking, there is enough time. After all, the lights will be turned on at You o'clock tomorrow. According to the past life, it was six o'clock in the evening, and now it is only around eight o'clock in the evening. There are still nearly 24 hours left. Whatever you want to do, you can do it.

But the problem is that no one is sure whether the Chixin disciples will do it in advance.

What if they were ready, and if they found out that the conspiracy had been shattered, they would do it immediately?
Even if the Lantern Festival has not yet started, there will still be many tourists in the Lantern Appreciation Land, which will also cause heavy casualties.

Thinking so, Qin Yi decided that he couldn't wait!
But he can't force his way in... After thinking for a while, he decided to look for He Rui first.

Maybe, the other party has a way to take him to see Ping Hongru.

Thinking like this, Qin Yi turned around and drove towards He Rui's residence.

The Lifang where He Rui is located is Zhongxia Lifang, there are not many rich people, so there is no precaution.

When Qin Yi arrived at the destination, he dismounted immediately, walked into the courtyard, knocked on the door and shouted in a low voice, "He Rui, He Rui, I'm Qin Yi, let me know something!"

There was no movement in the room, Qin Yi yelled a few more times before there was a response from the room, "Wait a minute."

Then, there was the sound of getting dressed, and then candles were lit in the back room, the door opened, and He Rui, who was dressed properly, appeared in front of him.

He looked at Qin Yi and asked in surprise, "What are you?"

He was very puzzled, it was already Xu time, why Qin Yi was still running around outside.

Qin Yi was also puzzled, why are all these people asleep so early?

He immediately said, "I have something important to do!"

Seeing Qin Yi's serious face, He Rui's heart sank.

He has worked with Qin Yi for a few days, and he knows that this person is very popular, and he doesn't often show sadness and joy. With his current appearance, it is obvious that something is not small.

He immediately looked outside the house and saw no one following him, so he nodded to Qin Yi and said, "Come in and talk."

He let the door open, and Qin Yi walked in.

After closing the door, He Rui asked directly, "What's the matter?"

"I just went to the secret path to look around, and I made a new discovery!" Qin Yi replied.

He Rui frowned. He knew that Qin Yi had found sulfur, saltpeter, charcoal, bamboo, rice paper in the secret passage...

Among these things, only the raw materials of the three gunpowder are more shocking. It can be guessed that the other party wants to make gunpowder.

Beyond that, what else could be discovered?
He immediately looked at Qin Yi suspiciously, waiting for the other party to tell him.

"Before, I failed to enter the deepest cave, but after entering now, I found candles inside!"

He Rui was listening with bated breath, and almost broke his defense when he heard the word candle. Is this a new discovery?

"Late at night, the cave is dark, so we must prepare candles!" He Rui said helplessly.

Qin Yi shook his head, "I saw that candle, it is new, and there is no trace of use. Since sulfur and other powders are transferred, there will be residues, why is this candle not piled up like a mountain, and then left behind?"

So he guessed that there must have been many candles in this cave before!
He Rui frowned, and replied, "It's possible, then what?"

Qin Yi guessed that the other party didn't think of that possibility, so he said word by word, "Bamboo, rice paper, candles... You said the disciple of Chixin, could it be..."

In an instant, He Rui was shocked, he knew what Qin Yi wanted to say!
"Lantern!" he yelled in panic.

Qin Yi nodded, "Yes, lanterns!"

In an instant, He Rui understood, lanterns, gunpowder... these ruthless disciples are so vicious!
He said quickly, "Have you been to see the adults?"

Qin Yi shook his head, "The Lifang where the magistrate is located has been banned, and I cannot enter."

He Rui frowned, "My lord set up the Lifang where he is located as a temporary control in order to strengthen the defense. I didn't expect it to be so obstructive!"

When Qin Yi heard this, his heart sank.

Listening to what He Rui said, it seems to indicate...he has no way to go in.

"We can only wait until dawn." He Rui said with a frown.

After hearing this, Qin Yi could only sigh softly.

I hope I can make it in time when I deal with it tomorrow.

"Forget it, then I'll go back and see the magistrate tomorrow." Qin Yi was full of helplessness.

"Which inn are you in? I'll go find you tomorrow and meet the magistrate together." He Rui asked.

After Qin Yi said the name of the store, he left the courtyard and returned to the inn.

……

The sky was slightly bright, Qin Yi had just got up, put on his clothes, and hadn't washed up when he heard footsteps coming from the aisle outside the house.

"Young Master Qin lives in this room."

Hearing the movement, there seemed to be two people standing outside the door, and the waiter's voice was heard, so Qin Yi guessed that He Rui had come.

It was quite early.

Before the two of them could knock on the door, Qin Yi stepped forward to open it, and saw that it was indeed He Rui, "Your Excellency came here really early."

He Rui nodded, with a look of anxiety on his face, "In a while, the gate will open, we have to hurry up."

Qin Yi immediately washed up quickly, and bought some steamed buns from the waiter, and ate with He Rui, while galloping to Lifang where Ping Hongru lived.

As soon as the two arrived, they saw the yamen servant yawning and opened the door.

As soon as the gate of the square was opened, Qin Yi and He Rui rode their horses and rushed to the mansion where Ping Hongru lived.

But before they got there, they saw a man riding a horse towards the square gate just halfway.

Qin Yi only took a glance, and he saw a lot of information. This person was crooked on the horse, obviously not good at riding a horse.The clothes are ordinary, it should be a servant.

At this time, the other party's face was full of panic, which showed that something major had happened.

Qin Yi withdrew his gaze, finished guessing, and heard He Rui beside him shouting, "Taozi, where are you going?"

The boy came to his senses and quickly reined in his horse, but he rushed a long way before barely stopping.

"Follow me over there to have a look." He Rui turned his horse's head and galloped towards the boy with doubts on his face.

Qin Yi was puzzled and could only follow.

"Where are you going?" He Rui asked doubtfully as he walked up to him.

Before the boy could answer, he heard the rushing sound of horseshoes again.

In the depths of Lifang, two more horsemen rushed over. The man on horseback was wearing exactly the same clothes as the servant in front of Qin Yi, obviously they were servants of the same mansion.

They also looked shocked.

He Rui's face suddenly became serious, "Tell me quickly, what happened?"

He was a little anxious, hoping in his heart that things would not be the same as he thought.

The boy looked mournful, and quickly replied, "Master...Master is dead!"

He Rui trembled, his pupils widened!

Qin Yi vaguely guessed something, and asked quickly, "Who is the master you are talking about?"

Before the servant could answer, He Rui replied with a panicked tone, "The master he was talking about is the prefect!"

Qin Yi's pupils also widened in an instant!
