Late at night in Jiaping Pass, it was so quiet that you could hear the breathing of the people around you clearly. The bustling streets during the day became empty, with no one else except the Shen family soldiers patrolling back and forth.
"What happened to make you so panicked?" Shen Haolin looked at Ying Shiwu curiously, "Are those assassins from the Duan family?"
"Yes, they confessed."
"Oh, they are not hard-core. What can they do? Could it be that... they have hidden a large number of weapons?"
"Marshal, what they committed is much more serious than this. Now that I have said it, you may not believe it." Ying Fifteen sighed heavily, "Don't ask, you two, wait until you get there. It will naturally become clear.”
Shen Haolin and Shen Cha looked at each other, this matter was really not a big deal, otherwise Shi Fifteen would not have reacted this way.
"Brother, let's go!" Shen Cha grabbed Shen Haolin's arm and ran forward excitedly, "This kind of thing hasn't happened in Jiaping Pass for so many years, I'm still looking forward to it."
"Did you see that?" Shen Haolin was almost pulled over by Shen Cha and looked at Ying Fifteen helplessly, "Your boss's interest has been completely aroused."
"Yeah, it's rare to see her so interested in one thing." Ying Shififteen was a little worried, "Marshal, this matter is not simple. If it doesn't work well... we are going to have a fight with the Duan family."
"So serious?" Shen Haolin frowned slightly, "Let's take a look and then talk!"
The assassin's lair was in an inconspicuous residence in the north of the city. The people nearby were already asleep, but when they heard the footsteps and the sound of armor outside, they got out of their warm beds. Those who are brave can run out of the house to watch the excitement, while those who are timid can watch from the window lattice. Seeing two or three teams of Shen family soldiers in helmets and armor running neatly towards the same place, everyone watching the excitement felt very strange that so many soldiers came to a place like them where few people usually pay attention. , isn't there some big case that happened?
The people at the border usually have a strong sense of worry and are more pessimistic than people in other places. They will think about things in a bad direction first. Everyone is extremely nervous, especially when Shen Jiu and Xia Jiu As two people appeared in their sight, this bad premonition became stronger and stronger.
"Why are Deputy General Shen and Deputy General Xia even here?"
"That's right. Look at the place they are surrounding. This family has always been responsible. Even though they are foreigners, they have never done anything extraordinary."
"Hey, there are some people who look honest on the surface, but are actually bad to the core."
"It's true that they are not from my race, and their minds must be different!"
The excitement reached its peak when Shen Haolin and Shen Cha appeared. The people watching went crazy. People standing at the door of their houses wanted to wave their handkerchiefs and shout wildly when they saw them. Their joy was beyond words.
Shen Haolin and Shen Cha also felt everyone's enthusiasm. However, time was tight and Shen Jiu and Xia Jiu were still waiting for them. They could only nod slightly towards the people and left in a hurry.
Shen Jiu and Xia Jiu had been waiting at the door for a long time. When they saw Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, they hurried up to greet them.
"The general has seen the marshal and the general!" Shen Jiu and Xia Jiu saluted, "Marshal please, general please!"
Shen Haolin and Shen Cha walked into the small courtyard under the leadership of Shen Jiu and Xia Jiu. They were not busy to see what they found. Instead, they stopped in the courtyard and calmly looked at this exotic place. 's small courtyard.
"Marshal, general, come this way." Shen Jiu walked beside the two of them and whispered, "Brother, sister, be prepared, don't be too surprised."
"What on earth is it that makes both of you do this..." Following Shen Jiu and Xia Jiu to the room where those things were temporarily stored, Shen Haolin and Shen Cha saw dozens of porcelain jars placed side by side inside. , the lid of the jar has been opened, and there is black, fine powder inside. Shen Cha walked forward, picked up a little bit of black powder, put it to the tip of his nose and sniffed it. His eyes suddenly widened, and he turned to look at Shen Haolin, "Brother, it's gunpowder, the kind that's well refined."
Shen Haolin also came over, looked at it carefully, and said seriously, "These things cannot be kept in the house. Move them outside to the yard."
"Yes!" Shen Jiu and Xia Jiu responded and ordered the soldiers guarding the gunpowder, "Move out and be careful."
All the soldiers responded in unison and waited for Shen Haolin, Shen Cha and the others to go out before starting to move the jars out.
"Gunpowder of this quality..." Shen Haolin looked at the jars with a serious look, "I have never seen it at any border in Daxia, let alone Jiaping Pass. Where did Duan's gang get it? He looked at Chen Jiu and then at Ying Shishi, "Are you really sure that it's not someone else's fake?"
"Back to Marshal, it's absolutely true."
"To continue the interrogation, we must ask them what they came to Jiaping Pass for. And..." Shen Haolin ordered Ying Fifteen, "Send people to various border passes, especially Yongning Pass, to tell them to strictly investigate the people in the city. Duan's spies, search their residence."
"Yes, Marshal!"
"If you put such high-quality gunpowder at home, aren't they afraid of accidentally blowing themselves up?" Shen Cha walked around the jars three times, picked up a jar and shook it a few times, frightening everyone. People came over to grab the things in her hand. She waved her hands to everyone and ordered the soldiers to spread the toilet paper on the ground, "Pour out everything in the jar!"
Although they didn't understand why Shen Cha did what he did, the soldiers still did it and poured the contents of each jar on the ground. After everything was poured out, they discovered that the jars were full of gold. Only the mouth of the jar was covered with a thick layer of gunpowder to conceal it from others.
"Gold?" Shen Jiu and Xia Jiu stared at the gold here in stunned silence. They looked at each other and rushed over to pick up a piece of it. "This... this... why does it look so familiar? It seems like yes……"
"Of course it looks familiar." Shen Cha handed the gold in his hand to Shen Haolin, "Do you remember that about eight years ago, a robbery happened twenty miles outside the city, and the Feng Family Gold Shop sent it to Xijing The gold was robbed by a group of masked robbers. None of the clerks and shopkeepers of the Fengjia Gold Shop, as well as the bodyguards and bodyguards responsible for escorting the gold, survived. Such a major case angered His Majesty and ordered the Shen family army to solve the case, but... …This group of robbers seemed to have disappeared from the world. After taking the money, they disappeared without a trace. It was precisely because these robbers were not caught that the old Duke and the old Marquis were arrested by Your Majesty. Accountability, I have been depressed for a long time. Unexpectedly..."
"I didn't expect this group of robbers to be hiding in the city, hiding in this inconspicuous residence, and Yizo has been hiding for so many years." Shen Haolin sighed, "Pack the gold and gunpowder in different categories. Then send it to the Duke's Mansion."
"Yes, Marshal!"
Shen Haolin sighed softly, turned around and walked out of the courtyard with Shen Cha.
"Fifteen, is the Feng Family Gold Shop still there?" Shen Cha turned back to look at the gold being packed into boxes, "Can we find them?"
"I'll do my best."
"Not only do we need to find people from the Feng family, we also need to send someone to inform His Majesty." Shen Haolin lowered his voice and said, "If there is no one in the Feng family, it is up to Your Majesty to decide what to do with this batch of gold."
"What my brother said is that I will send someone to Beijing to report to Your Majesty."
Shen Cha winked at Ying Shishi, who nodded slightly, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Brother, wait a minute!" Shen Cha tugged Shen Haolin's arm, turned around and faced Shen Jiu and Xia Jiu who were watching the soldiers packing boxes, and warned, "Yelunan is still in the city, the gold matter must be It needs to be kept secret, and no news is allowed to leak out, understand?"
"Sister, don't worry, brother, don't worry, this matter will be taken care of by us, make sure the brothers keep it secret!"
