Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 1027

And Li Mingxuan also told them that Ye Chen, the emperor of Xiangfu Kingdom, might send someone to rescue Zhao Pu.

Whether it was the Huaxia Weifu back then, or the famous Shiwa, what they were best at was developing the lowest-level people for their own use, such as beggars, hooligans, hawkers, and buddies in Kaifeng City.Although there is no evidence that among the thousands of excrement workers who are responsible for digging and carrying excrement in all the latrines in Kaifeng City, there are ten children or Zhou Jie, but since there are ten children among beggars, why can't there be among the excrement workers.

Therefore, the excrement workers in charge of the latrines of the Dali Temple and the temporary latrines of the [-] defenders outside were watched by many officers and soldiers with knives and policemen every time they worked.Make sure they don't take anything other than feces from Dali Temple or the barracks, and don't leave anything behind, such as Xiangfu Kingdom's notorious gunpowder bag.

The officers and men who were in charge of watching the excrement workers or the quick catchers were very dedicated. Under their watchful eyes, these excrement workers did not take away anything other than excrement, let alone left a single person or thing behind.However, what people see with their eyes in this world is often the appearance, or there are some things that are invisible to the naked eye.For example, some things as small as powder, if they are scattered in the stool pit little by little when the excrement workers are working, they will not be seen at a short distance, and the smell in the process of digging the excrement is really too bad It stinks so much that no matter how conscientious officers and soldiers or small police officers are, they will involuntarily distance themselves from each other.

In today's Kaifeng, although the existence of Shiwa, the person in charge of Xiangfu State Security Department in the Central Plains of the Song State, is very secret in the eyes of ordinary people, it is not a secret in the eyes of the real big shots in the Song State court.But under such circumstances, Shiwa is still in Kaifeng, under the eyes of Emperor Song, and under the suppression of Song Dynasty court trying every means, still able to survive very little, and keep most of the forces under his command.This is because Shiwa has a big hole card in his hand. There is a criss-cross underground hole in Kaifeng City, extending in all directions.These burrows are connected to the sewers and burrows that are ubiquitous in the capital city, but they are different.Because under the city of Kaifeng, there is another city of Kaifeng buried below that was submerged by the flood of the Yellow River.

There are many sewers and caves under the city of Kaifeng. This is something that many people in Kyoto know. Even the people of Kaifeng call the people living in the sewers and caves the cave people.

In fact, these so-called cave people are nothing more than a group of beggars, who have nowhere to hide and have to go down to the cave gutter to avoid the cold winter.However, as early as many years ago, some vicious people among these beggars actually regarded the caves as their own territory. Since then, they have used the caves as their bases, committing all kinds of crimes including rape, prostitution, and robbery.

When Zhao Guangyi was the prefect of Kaifeng, he mobilized thousands of civilians and ordered a tunnel to be dug. As a result, more than 30 corpses were found in that tunnel, and more than [-] women were also found in the tunnel. , are all good women who have been missing in Kyoto for more than ten years. The oldest is the daughter of a censor Zhongcheng at the beginning of the Song Dynasty. This daughter has even lived in a cave without seeing the light of day for nearly ten years , gave birth to three children for those dirty burrows, but in that living environment, the children died as soon as they were born.

This situation changed when Ye Chen established the Huaxia Weifu and let Shiwa start to rectify the underground forces in the capital for his own use.Shiwa led people to kill all these utterly depraved and inhuman authentic people.Then they occupied the magpie's nest, occupied these caves, and began to secretly arrange for people to search for and excavate possible dungeons, but the hard work paid off. As early as two years ago, before Ye Chen rebelled against the Song Dynasty, ten The baby found a huge underground palace.

And the existence of this underground palace and underground tunnels extending in all directions is his greatest reliance.Therefore, even when Bai Zixuan, the master of Tianji Mansion, came to find him under the order of Ye Chen, he did not bring Bai Zixuan into his underground palace.However, Bai Zixuan knows the existence of the underground palace, so in Bai Zixuan's plan, Shiwa will be responsible for two things, one is to sprinkle a kind of medicinal powder that Bai Zixuan once asked for from the ghost doctor into the latrines inside and outside Dali Temple among.The second is that a passage needs to be dug from the underground palace.As for the trough gang, Zhou Jie was responsible for rescuing Zhao Pu and sending him all the way to Jiangnan.

.........

On November [-]th, there are thirteen days left before the Chinese New Year. It is also the day of Zhengdan, the day when Zhao Pu was hacked into pieces.On this day, Kaifeng had the first snow since winter.

It was a day of heavy snowfall. The endless snow covered the ancient city of Kaifeng with silver clothes. People who went to and from Kaifeng city all wore bamboo hats and coir raincoats without exception, struggling in the snow that was several feet deep. Trekking, even on the official road where people used to come and go, horse-drawn carriages are no longer passable.Kaifeng, which is known as "a population of millions, is the most magnificent in the world", because of the freezing of the Yellow River, even the Bian River has lost the bustle and noise of the past.

However, the inside and outside of Dali Temple today is extremely lively, just because not long after the heavy snow started, everyone inside and outside Dali Temple got a strange disease. Their eyes were very itchy.

This strange disease has directly caused many officers, soldiers and officials to scratch their butts through their pants in total disregard of their appearance, and even some disgusting people directly put their hands into their underwear to scratch.

"General, I just saw that they were all poisoned by the same kind of poison, and this kind of poison may only break out in the humid environment on a snowy day, that's why that place is extremely itchy today." The military doctor who was invited came to the diagnosis after pinching his nose and looking at the buttholes of several soldiers.If this happens to a few people, it's not a big deal, but everyone inside and outside Dali Temple is like this. It's not difficult for Li Ziwu and others to speculate that someone drugged them.After being shocked, while dispatching the doctor and military doctor, he quickly dispatched another army to change defense.

However, before these things happened, the mutation finally happened.

In fact, the beginning of this mutation has already been speculated by some big figures in Dali Temple, and even they have taken a lot of precautions for it.

That's right, the change started with an explosion. To be precise, a powerful master threw a gunpowder bag from the restaurant opposite Dali Temple into the messy barracks in front of Dali Temple.

In the dungeon, including Zhang Dong, the five masters who faced Zhao Pu, an imperial doctor, and an eunuch had the same fart. Their eyes were extremely itchy, because they also went to the toilet these days, but they always ate and drank. Zhao Pu in the dungeon is fine.

However, Zhang Dong, Li Ziwu, the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and Ouchi's masters all have strong self-control abilities, and they are all big figures with status. Naturally, they can't scream and scratch their butts vigorously in front of others like the prison guards outside.

The explosion in front of the gate of Dali Temple spread to the prison deep underground, leaving only a weak vibration. It seemed normal, but to Zhang Dong, Li Ziwu and others deep in the underground world, it meant that Terrible thing.

Sure enough, it didn't take long before someone came down from the dungeon and reported while scratching his ass, "My lords, more than 300 thieves came from above to rob the prison. The culprits have already broken through the blockade of the Forbidden Army, entered the Dali Temple, and are about to enter the prison, and the higher authorities are about to be unable to stop them."

Li Ziwu, the assassination officer of the Song Weifu, took a look at Zhang Dong and said, "Fortunately, the prime minister had expected it a long time ago, and never underestimated the strength and means of that thief Ye Chen hiding in Kaifeng. He has already arranged a safe strategy." .And there are not many people in this world who know that there is another universe under Dali Temple."

While Li Ziwu was speaking, the expert from the criminal department, the two senior experts, the eunuch, and the imperial physician had already put Zhao Pu on a stretcher prepared in advance, and carried Zhao Pu out of the prison.

When everyone walked out of the dungeon, Zhang Dong suddenly said, "Master Li will lead someone to send Zhao Pu away as planned, and I will go up to preside over the overall situation."

Although Li Ziwu is backed by Prime Minister Li Mingxuan, Zhang Dong is now the chief envoy of the Song Wei Mansion. Leaving Zhao Pu relieved his worry.

Therefore, after Li Ziwu agreed, Zhang Dong quickly walked up to the prison.But Li Ziwu took a deep look at Zhang Dong's back, but walked along the dark alleyway in the opposite direction to Zhang Dong's, a darker front.

The bean-like lights on both sides of the alleyway are very similar to the faint light in Li Ziwu's eyes at this time, they are faint will-o'-the-wisps.

Li Ziwu and the eunuch walked in the front, and the other four carried Zhao Pu and followed him closely. Soon, their figures gradually disappeared at the end of the alleyway, as if they were walking toward hell, until they sank into the deepest part of the road. in the darkness.

In the dark alleyway, Li Ziwu walked forward, turning every time he walked, and from time to time he pressed a certain mechanism, and a stone door would fall down and be covered by mud.

These organs have always existed, but no one in the previous Dali Temple knew about them. It was not until Li Ziwu took a long-ago cowhide map from Li Mingxuan and dug up a wall in the deepest prison that he discovered these underground tunnel organs. .

The underground lanes are already dense like a spider's web, and through such means, they become extremely complicated. Li Ziwu believes that even if those thieves break through the control of the layers of masters above and kill them in the underground dungeon, there is no way to find them. here.And as long as they stay here for a while, when the city defense guards who get the news come to help in large numbers and kill the thieves who came to rob the prison, they can open the mechanism from the inside and go out again.
