Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 73 The building is gone, but the words are still there

After these days, a lot of fame gold liquid has been gathered in the Baijia lottery tube, leaving only a gap before the second scale grid is filled.

When Chen Zhi drew lots, one of the squares fell rapidly.

While the gold liquid of fame was being consumed, the copper coin above the stick trembled slightly, and a layer of halo on the surface peeled off and fell on the stick. Suddenly there was a bamboo stick in the hand.

"Sure enough, the halo of the copper coin has changed. If there is a change, there is a chance to investigate." Chen Zhi looked down at the bamboo stick, thoughtfully, his eyes swept over the bamboo stick, and paused for a moment on the word "Yin Yang".

"The lottery of the Yin Yang family?"

This result surprised Chen Zhi. Most of the things in the Yin Yang family were extremely weird and had all kinds of wonderful powers.

Chen Zhi's purpose in drawing lots this time was not to get things from hundreds of families, but to take advantage of the side effects. He didn't expect that he would draw things from the Yin and Yang family.

"Everything from the Yin Yang family has always had miraculous effects. It is a relatively practical type. I wonder what this root does."

He silently recited the sign, and the bamboo stick in his hand turned into three talisman papers, each with the word "mi" written on it.

"Ecstasy Talisman?"

Looking at this thing, Chen Zhi's heart moved.

He had drawn the enchantment array talisman many times in his previous life. It looked like a talisman, but as long as it was patted on the ground, a enchantment array could be formed according to the terrain. As the name suggests, anyone who steps into the array would be lost in it.

"Once the enchantment formation is established, it can last for half an hour unless the talisman is torn off. During this period, soldiers and horses who accidentally enter it cannot escape..."

Looking at these three talismans, Chen Zhi suddenly felt that the situation was a little strange.

"I was walking along the way and was chased by people. If there was a need, this enchantment array would be my first choice. As a result, I got this thing as soon as I drew lots. The connection inside is intriguing, but compared with the past, this draw is indeed different in one place. "

His attention was focused on the copper coin, the halo on it had been exhausted.

"Could it be that the halo on this copper coin can help me get what I need right now? By talking about knowledge with others, I can condense the halo and cooperate with the lot. Every time I draw lots, I can get what I need most. If this is true, then the meaning is It's too big, I have to find a chance to test it." Liu Gang's figure emerged in his mind, and at the same time he rolled up his sleeves and put away the three talismans.

Due to the obstruction of his body, Chen Wu behind him did not see the process of drawing lots and unraveling the lots.

At this time, the door to the house in front of him also opened, and Xu Zhi, the third elder with a smile on his face, came out.

"Shouyi, you are finally willing to come to my place. I have been waiting for a long time." Xu Zhi smiled with eagerness in his eyes. "You come here this time. I have to take a test of Legalist knowledge. You are the one I recommend." Those who are in the screening cannot be ignored." Xu Zhi's words were full of words, emphasizing his help and favor to Chen Zhi, and his intention to win over Chen Zhi was clear. As for the gambling debt, he didn't even mention it.

Chen Zhi took advantage of the situation and entered, and the Chen Wu behind him also followed suit, but the little book boy was full of doubts. "Aren't you hiding from those chasing people? Why did you suddenly come to visit the third elder?" But he didn't know that even if Bai Qing had the courage, his subordinates would not dare to rush into the third elder's house.

When the courtyard door closed, Chen Zhi looked in the direction of Qingyuan Village.

"The open fire bag can support combustion and increase the temperature when exposed to fire. The side effect is to increase anger. After people inhale it, their emotions will be aroused and their thoughts will be confused. In addition, the money is placed in Qingyuan Village and the side effects after the lot is drawn should be eight||nine We have been together for ten years, and I have finally made an explanation with my predecessor Chen Zhi. Bai Qing took away your land and wealth, but he refused to let go in the end, so I let him lose the money and cut off the road. I wonder if you know better, can you rest in peace? "

As soon as he entered the yard, his pursuers suddenly became headless flies.

On the other side, in Qingyuan Village, Bai Qing and others were still waiting for the results and had no intention of dealing with anything else. Chen Asan was walking around impatiently. Seeing that there was no result for a long time, he came directly to Watch in front of the door.

Stopping for a moment, when he lowered his head, he accidentally saw something on the ground.

"what is this?"

When I picked it up and looked at it, I was immediately confused.

"A sachet," he sniffed, "it has no smell. Who dropped it?"

I was still wondering here when I suddenly heard someone shouting "Water has escaped" outside, followed by noise and chaotic footsteps.

After a breath, several panic-looking nurses and servants ran to the lobby, shouting: "Everyone is in trouble, it's on fire! Go away quickly, it's about to be burned!"

This person's face was gray and black, his clothes were messy, and he couldn't care less about saluting, and he was trembling slightly when he spoke.He didn't need to remind him at all. As a wave of fire came, many tongues of flames spread from the side. In just a breath, they engulfed the corridor on one side of the lobby and spread towards the stairs!

"This... this..." Bai Qing was still staring at his toes, but when he raised his head, the situation suddenly changed, his eyes were full of fire, and he couldn't even speak.

At this time, a wave of heat rushed over, like a strong wind, blowing on his face. With a little spark, Bai Qing and the others suddenly woke up.

"Quick, quick, quick run!"

Several stall owners finally came to their senses, and ran away without saying a word. Their guards did not care about their duties, one ran faster than the other, and they were all gone in the blink of an eye.

Bai Qing looked back, gritted his teeth, turned around and left, but his hands were shaking as he ran.

This was originally a place he used to contact all parties. Even the Bai family's wealth was swallowed up by this hole, and now it was all destroyed in the sea of ​​fire!
Bai Qing closed her eyes, feeling heartbroken.

After running out of the heat wave range, the stall owners finally had time to breathe. When they turned around, they saw that the spectacular pavilion had turned into a thick pillar of fire, and the fire shone around like daylight.

The heat wave and the flames intertwined, shouts and cries for help flew together, Qingyuanzhuang gradually collapsed like paper, and became a huge fireball, which was particularly dazzling at night, and soon attracted the attention of the patrol, and then many slaves came over Put out fires.

The intensity of the fire was strange. It came quickly and violently, but did not hurt anyone. As everyone fled, the entire Qingyuan Village was enveloped in flames. It burned out in just one stick of incense, leaving behind a ruin. The fire also followed It was weak and was about to go out.

This scene fell into Bai Qing's eyes, making his eyelids twitch and his hands and feet tremble. His pampered face was mostly covered by black ash, and there was an extra layer of fly ash on his body, but he no longer bothered to pat it.

"It must be Chen Zhi who set the fire!" Chen Asan, who also had a dark face, suddenly shouted and insisted that it was Chen Zhi who set the fire. "Otherwise, there would be no such coincidence. As soon as he left, the fire started. , This kid wants the lives of all of you!" Afterwards, Chen Asan raised his voice, and the stall owners were shocked and showed hatred.

But at this moment, Bai Qing's old servant Lao Hu came over tremblingly. As soon as he arrived in front of Bai Qing, he fell to his knees and cried loudly: "Master, this old servant is guilty. I was negligent. I failed to control the people below and did not supervise them enough. The lanterns on the west side were not tied tightly and fell down, causing this disaster. A hundred deaths will not be enough to atone for my sin!"

As soon as these words were said, everyone was stunned for a moment, then looked at each other, and finally their eyes fell on Chen Asan. The rogue leader's face was so red that even the black dust could not cover it, and he just wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.

Just now he had sworn that it was Chen Zhi, but when he turned around and was exposed, no one could bear it, but Chen Asan didn't want to be shy, so he changed his mind and gritted his teeth and said: "Masters, for this plan, We can only insist that it was Chen Zhi who did it! He came here clearly today, as long as we all agree, it will be useless no matter what he says, who can prove it to him? "

Is this to frame Chen Zhi?
The stall owners understood and couldn't help but hesitate.

Framing a gentry was a big crime in the Han Dynasty. If it was exposed, there would be endless troubles. After all, these people were just businessmen, with money but no political status.

"Huh..." At this time, Bai Qing let out a long breath. All the events of the night ran through his mind, and finally he was fixed on the ruins. He felt that he had never suffered such a big loss, and his anger and grief were mixed. Finally make up your mind.

He looked around at everyone and said slowly: "The matter has come to this, and someone must be responsible. What Chen Zhi did is so arrogant, we can't just let it go. Otherwise, how can we gain a foothold in Pengcheng County? Please give Bai a certain responsibility. Save face."

Mr. Bai is going to adopt Chen Asan's statement.

"Brother Bai, can you let the brothers discuss it..."

"There's no time, the guards are already here..." Bai Qing shook his head, not intending to give everyone a chance. His cold eyes swept over everyone, and his warning was clearly expressed. His losses today were too great. The plan was in vain, but it was also an opportunity!
"These people in front of me have different ideas, but as long as they find a reason, they can be forced to join together. This is a lot of power and financial resources. I, Bai Qing, have been planning for a long time. After today, I will become a laughing stock and my path to advancement will be cut off. If If I don’t work hard this time, I can only lay the foundation for future generations like my grandfather and father did. Then what’s the point of my life? It’s better to take advantage of the opportunity to bite the Chen family. After all, the Chen family is declining, and Old Man Chen A new death, Chen Chishouxiao resigned from office, leaving only Chen Yuan as an official, this is the weakest time, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

Bai Qing's eyes were red, and he didn't know if they were bloodshot or smoky.

"What's more, I still have a trump card. Xu Fang is a servant of the Chen family, and I also know about his involvement in bandits. If nothing can be done, as long as I bring this matter up, I can escape unscathed! When the time comes, , as long as I communicate with several big families and have a reason to join forces, the Chen family will be divided among them, but there will still be some broth for me."

Bai Qing's power is second to none among the gambling dens, and he holds a lot of property. The other stall owners want a lot from him, otherwise they would not come here today. At this time, he said it so clearly, and he was short of direct threats. , obviously burned by the fire, his muscles and bones were damaged, and he was so angry that he wanted to fight for his life. How could anyone else dare to object openly.

"You are all here..."

Suddenly, a voice came, and two officers came over. One of them was holding a piece of writing. Part of the writing was blackened, and there were traces of burns on the edges, but the main body was intact.

"Master Bai, I'm sorry. I couldn't save anything. Only this calligraphy was not burned. Fortunately, after counting, there were no casualties. You see..."

Bai Qing and others took a look at it, what else could it be if it wasn't "Poems on Quitting Gambling"?
My Qingyuan Village has been burned down, but your insulting words on us are still there?
Bai Qing felt a rush of turbid air, his body swayed, and itching broke out on his feet. He stumbled and collapsed to the ground, causing a cry of surprise.
