In any dynasty, anything that can be used for warfare, such as chariots, bows and arrows, armor, gunpowder, etc., will be strictly controlled by the court.
The Yuan Dynasty was naturally no exception.
The Mongols swept across the world, and the supervision of those places where the country was subjugated became stricter, such as Lin'an Prefecture.
However, at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the world was in chaos, the court's supervision was lax, and the Haisha Gang was selling illegal salt. It was not too difficult to obtain contraband such as gunpowder through its own unique channels.
Yuan Yin just didn't expect that Song Xing would dare to risk the disapproval of the world and openly use gunpowder to blow up the Longmen Escort Bureau in Lin'an Mansion.
"Gang Leader Song, what are you going to do?" Yuanyin asked with a stern face, ignoring the ringing in his ears.
Song Xing signaled Yuan Yin to be calm, and waited for a while. When the fire in the Longmen Escort Bureau was a little less intense, Chi Xin waved his hand, and dozens of big men rushed into the Escort Bureau.
"Gang leader, I made a discovery!"
After a while, Chi Xin appeared in front of Song Xing with an excited look on his face.
"Master, why don't we go and see it together." Song Xing smiled and invited Yuanyin.
Yuan Yin looked confused and couldn't figure out what Song Xing was up to, but she still followed him and entered the escort agency.
Arriving at a place that was supposed to be a side hall, Yuanyin saw that the buildings above had been blown to pieces by gunpowder, and above the ground, there was a passage as high as one person, leading to the ground.
Song Xing came to the Longmen Escort Agency with great fanfare, just to find the secret passage hidden in the Escort Agency.
But now that the current situation is turbulent, it is normal for a slightly powerful sect to dig a secret passage for escape. Yuan Yin couldn't understand the use of Song Xing's efforts to find this passage.
Song Xing did not explain, ordered his people to light torches, and led them towards the secret passage. Yuan Yin could only suppress the doubts in his heart and follow behind.
After walking like this for a while, Yuanyin secretly recalled the route in his mind, and was a little surprised. The secret passage twisted downwards. Judging from the moisture on the walls on both sides of the secret passage, it was obvious that it had been dug under the West Lake.
Since it is not an escape route, what is the purpose of Du Dajin digging a tunnel under the West Lake?
The tunnel was extremely quiet, except for the footsteps of people and the crackling of torches, there was no movement.
This extreme silence made the people following Song Xing begin to feel as if there was a terrifying monster waiting for them at the end of the passage.
The Longmen Escort Agency is located by the West Lake, so the tunnel is not long, and you can see the end soon after walking.
At the end of the tunnel is a small dark room with walls made of stones and brightly lit, but the scene inside chills the hearts of those who see it.
There were corpses all over the ground, with human heads, human skin, and human flesh rotting into mud, and the bones forming a forest, emitting a pungent stench. It was simply more terrifying than the eighteen levels of hell in the underworld.
In this era when human life is at stake, even those who are used to seeing bloody scenes can't help but gasp when they see this scene. Although they have seen many dead people, they have rarely seen such a tragic scene.
What is even more horrifying is that in this stone room filled with corpses, there is a person with his back to everyone, and he is constantly making cutting movements on the corpse at hand. He is so focused that he seems not to even hear the footsteps behind him.
When Chi Xin saw the familiar Taoist robe and bald head, he suddenly took a breath of cold air.
The man who was handling the corpse just put down the knife in his hand and slowly turned his head with a smile on his face.
It was Mr. Zhu Da who was supposed to have died on Feilai Peak!
"Mr. Zhu Da, how could this happen?!" The disgusting smell of corpses filling the room could not conceal the shock in Chi Xin's eyes.
Song Xing let out a sigh and said, "It's really you, Mr. Zhu Da."
Mr. Zhu Da turned around, took out a piece of silk cloth and wiped the blood on his hands carefully, and asked with a smile: "This place is so hidden. No one should know except me and Du Dajin. It's really hard for you." Oh, I can actually find it here."
He stood in the sea of blood among the mountains of corpses, with a smile on his face just like the one on Feilai Peak. He showed a bit of elegance in his indifference, but it made Chi Xin feel cold all over.
"Lin'an Mansion is so big, you can always find it with some effort." Song Xing said coldly, looking at the bones and remains on the ground.
Mr. Zhu Da threw away the silk cloth in his hand, stared at Song Xing with some confusion, and asked curiously: "How did you find out about my relationship with Du Dajin?"
Song Xing looked at Mr. Zhu Da who was resting and said: "You shouldn't kill Cao Wu to silence him."
Mr. Zhu Da frowned, thought for a while, and didn't understand, "That gangster? He just killed me casually, and he didn't know about my existence."
Chi Xin recalled the scene he saw when Song Xing cut open Cao Zuo's stomach in a mass grave outside the city.
"The reason why weird things are called weird is because they can be said to be invincible according to certain fixed laws. For example, if humans want to kill the wild goose feather sword ghost, they must not use their internal strength. I can fight it with my own physical strength."
Song Xing stood in front of countless corpses and talked with Mr. Zhu Da, "The monster that killed Longmen Escort is the same one that killed Cao Wu. Although I didn't see the corpse of Longmen Escort, I saw the same thing from Cao Wu. the same."
"Unfortunately, when I dissected Cao Zuo's corpse in the mass grave, I found that only a small part of his internal organs turned into sand. This is obviously in line with what you said before, that the Diyang tribe can replace human internal organs with sand. It’s not the same.”
When Mr. Zhu Da heard this, his eyes flashed. He did not interrupt Song Xing's speech, but listened quietly.
Song Xing continued: "So I was wondering at the time why this weird thing didn't seem to be very mature in its magic. It seemed that it wanted to turn all human internal organs into sand, but it was not powerful enough and only completed part of it."
Mr. Zhu Da said coldly: "The abilities of monsters are all kinds of strange, and the methods of killing people are also weird. There is nothing to be surprised about."
Song Xing shook his hand and said, "Chi Xin might have thought so. But I tend to like to think more, so I was wondering if it was possible that this strange thing was not naturally generated, but was created by It was man-made. Perhaps the manufacturing technique was immature, resulting in a semi-finished product, and the killing method was slightly strange and unfamiliar."
Mr. Zhu Da stared at Song Xing's throat and said: "Creating weird things, no one has dared to think about it in decades."
Song Xing nodded: "Yes, ordinary people don't understand weird things at all, so naturally they won't think that way, but for you, Mr. Zhu Da, that's not necessarily the case."
Mr. Zhu Da snorted and asked, "Just because you know about weird things, you doubt me? Doesn't the subordinate next to you also know a lot about weird things?"
"Of course it's not because of this," Song Xing shook his head, "What really made me suspicious was the book I saw in your hand at Feilai Peak."
"Book?" Mr. Zhu Da narrowed his eyes, "That "West Lake Tour"? I have been trapped in Feilai Peak for twenty years with nothing to do. I read to understand the stories and anecdotes of Lin'an. Is there anything surprising about it? .”
Song Xing stared at Mr. Zhu Da and said expressionlessly: "It's nothing strange, but I am very curious. After I went back, I asked someone to investigate this book and found that the person who wrote this book also compiled a book. Does Mr. Zhu Da have any impression of this medical book, "Taiping Shenghui Prescriptions"?"
After hearing "Taiping Shenghui Fang", Mr. Zhu Da's face changed!
