A few horses were led out of the gate of the city.

Xu Qi'an and his party changed to express horses and went through the streets and downtown of the outer city. It took only half an hour to leave the outer city. Liuqi immediately speeded up and rushed to Dahuang mountain.

"The official horse is fast, which is close to 50 yards. Can the horse in my last life run so fast..." Xu Qi'an muttered in his heart.

What is the difference of aura content in novels?

This conjecture is reasonable, because the practice of Qi instinct is a way of breathing.

At noon, the group arrived at the edge of the Dahuang mountain, stopped at the official road, tied the horse rope to the tree trunk on the side of the road, ate the dry food, and copied a small path into the mountain.

A quarter of an hour later, they came to the river that flows at the foot of Dahuang mountain.

Searching along the river for a moment, they found several vague footprints, about three feet long, one and a half feet wide and four toes.

LV Qing and his two colleagues took off the package on their back, took out the explosive package and distributed it to Xu Qian and his three colleagues:

"with the claw seal as the center, let's go down and drop the explosive package. You go upstream to see if you can force the monster out of the river."

This is a long established strategy.

The management of gunpowder in Dafeng Dynasty was very strict, the formula was kept secret, and all the materials needed to make gunpowder were monopolized by the imperial court.

even a dozen people, and Lu Qing, and other Kwai Fu officials, they know only a little about the composition of gunpowder.

I still smell it.

The two sides set the explosives on fire and threw them into the river.

"Boom!"

There was a dull explosion and the river splashed several feet high.

Soon, the explosive pack ran out, and the group stood on the bank, watching the rolling turbid waves. After waiting for a long time, they did not see any monsters floating out of the river.

"If only we had the help of the Warlock of the sky warden." Xu Qian said with emotion.

Wangqi technique can lock the position of demons by observing demons.

Song Tingfeng let out a "ha" and said in a low voice: "the magicians of the sky warden are more noble than us. They only listen to the orders of the emperor. Don't expect to labor them in such small cases."

Is the Warlock of the sky warden very noble? I don't think you've ever seen them look at me reverently.

Xu Qi'an nodded.

When the two sides met, song Tingfeng shrugged: "it seems that it won't come out. My suggestion is to go into the mountain and have a look. If there's anything in the Dahuang mountain. "

"Check the area where the ash households collect limestone first," Xu added

LV Qing pondered and nodded.

Two groups of people went into the mountain in batches, one in front of the other behind, tens of meters apart.

Song Tingfeng looked at LV Qing's back and said, "the female Constable of the government is very tall. Look at that buttock. It's tight and strong. Your legs are strong. You can hold your soul out of the sky. Although the girl in the Department of Jiaofang is smart, she is still too weak. "

I agree, and this kind of woman who practices martial arts has waistcoat line, smooth curve, tight thigh, and maybe shallow abdominal muscles... This reminds me of my wife Tifa... Xu Qi'an thinks carefully: "but she seems to be used to wrapping her chest. It's not good. It can cause chest deformation and sagging."

Song Tingfeng was stunned and laughed: "as you have noticed, I lack an interesting companion like you. Zhu Guangxiao is a stuffy gourd who can't make a fart with three sticks."

For men, talking about meat is always a fun and time-consuming entertainment.

Zhu Guangxiao looked at him and said nothing.

Huihu mainly collected in the main peak of Dahuangshan. The group saw the mountain with bare stones from a distance, just like white spots on their faces.

Years of mining have destroyed the towering main peak.

Both sides searched aimlessly in the mountains for a long time, and found nothing valuable.

When they got together to drink water, Lu Qing said: "Dahuangshan has not only high-quality limestone, but also rich vegetation, which can be cut down on the spot to serve as dye. It's very convenient for ash farmers to open kilns, burn as they dig, and break as they burn.

"There are rivers at the foot of the mountain, and water transport is convenient. It's better to save firewood than to be grey, and it's better to make half the effort than to make the most of it. "

Another Constable of the Yamen added: "so the tax is too heavy. If you can't collect ashes, you will be cut off."

So he went to the Yamen. Xu Qi'an was silent for a moment and sighed: "exorbitant taxes and levies give birth to refugees. People's fat and cream are the most delicious food."

Everyone was silent for a moment, and no one dared to take over.

Song Tingfeng coughed and changed the topic: "the demons don't come out of the water. If we search the mountain, we don't have enough people. Constable Lu, what do you suggest

Although he was still greedy for other people's body just now, song Tingfeng would not despise her because of her big chest and big buttocks.

LV Qing thought carefully: "we are divided into three groups, two people in a group, to go to the neighborhood village leader; back to the capital city to gather the mountain search staff; I go to the Fu Yin to ask for help, and find a magician of the sky warden.""That's a waste of time," Xu Qi'an waved his hand and said, "choose a person to go to the neighborhood village, and the rest will stay here."

Lu Qing frowned.

Xu Qi'an took a look at her: "if there is no harvest, I am responsible for going to see the magician."

What he said seems to be very sure. Can the magician of the sky warden listen to him?

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

The old catcher returns to the peak with no time.

"The villain's surname is Zhang. He is the head of the village outside the big yellow mountain." The old man gave a non-standard salute, and his tone was excited:

"the villains have finally waited for several adults. If you don't come again, the people in the village will not be able to open the pot."

It took less than half a year.

LV Qing stared at him with sharp eyes and dignified look: "I ask you, where did the last ten people who entered the mountain die?"

"In the South..." Li Chang pointed to the south of the mountain range: "it's from the opposite direction of the river."

Song Tingfeng thought: "there are also kilns burning ashes over there?"

After the exploration just now, they found that the place with the densest ash burning is not far from the river. Ash households detour into the mountain, certainly dare not choose this side to burn ash.

Because no one can escape as soon as the monster comes ashore.

Li Chang nodded: "sporadic a few points, not as much as here."

"Take us." Lu Qing said in a deep voice.

"Yes Li Chang seems to be afraid of the female constable.

They walked to the south. The mountain road was rugged and it was extremely difficult to climb. I have to take care of the bad old man Li Chang. He doesn't walk fast.

"Here it is." Li Chang stopped on the trail and pointed to the front. It was an open space dug out.

There are several cave like kilns used to burn ashes.

Several people searched the scene and found no valuable clues. They had already cleaned it up.

Song Tingfeng and LV Qing looked at each other and shook their heads.

Xu Qi'an said, "go into the kiln and have a look."

A few people take local materials, light a torch, draw out a sabre, and enter the kiln cautiously.

Originally thought only used to burn ash kiln, not too deep, but walking, Xu Qian and others realized that something was wrong.

Where is the kiln? It's a tunnel dug by the population. It took a cup of tea to get to the end.

Song Tingfeng narrowed his eyes and said, "the kiln doesn't have to dig so deep. It's obviously digging something. There's no trace of smoke and fire on the stone wall."

LV Qing called in the chief and asked, "what's the matter?"

Li Chang was stunned and said, "I, I don't know..."

Xu Qi'an held a torch, observed the cliff, and surveyed the ground carefully for a moment. Pick up a piece of white ore as big as palm.

Is that what we're mining?

It's not like limestone.

Xu Qi'an's palms work hard, and the air engine is surging. In the "click" sound, the white ore is squeezed into powder by him.

He held the torch and spread the powder like a flame.

Whoo!

The torch suddenly burst into flames, bright yellow with a dim purple.

Nitrates?!

Xu Qi'an's pupils shrank.

The sudden rise of the flame surprised the people in the grottoes, and the sound of the sword condensing gas engine came one after another.

Seeing that it was Xu Qi'an who made the ghost, LV Qing said angrily, "what are you doing?"
