Eunuch's professionalism

The violent vibration on the ground finally slowed down, and everyone panted and hid under the stone passageway, thinking with lingering fear, if they went out just now, where would there be a way out now?

Many people still had tears in their eyes, staring at the passageway, speechless for a long time.

Just when they were about to open the stone slab that was the only exit, Shao Huachi stopped them and let the few people who had taken the lead get down first. He stepped on the ladder and only opened a small gap in the stone slab. Although the line of sight was limited, he could still Seeing a corner of the organ, the most important thing is to be able to smell something.

This taste is not strong, but it cannot be ignored, it is the faint sulfur and garlic smell of gunpowder.

Sulfur—Gunpowder?

Pungent Garlic - White Phosphorus?

There is no factual basis for such a guess, it's just that he thinks things in the worst direction.

The will-o’-the-wisp incident that happened in the Jin Palace that year was later investigated and found to be closely related to Fu Chen. Shao Huachi also found Fu Chen, and Fu Chen had no intention of hiding it at the time. Demonstrating it again, let Shao Huachi remember it fresh. The terrifying "soul haunting" in his mind before can be "made". It is undeniable that Shao Huachi had some respect in his heart at that time, but when he thought of Fu Chen's identity, The status of a eunuch is equivalent to that of a lowly pariah, and the thoughts that just got up disappeared without a trace.

But he remembered the breath of white phosphorus in his mind.

The structure of this underground weapons depot seems simple, but it is full of crises.He thought of the sound of the gears turning twice before, and the arrangement of those organs, how could this exit be so easy to pass.Furthermore, although Shao Huachi didn't say anything, in the past two hours, he calculated the direction they were going, which was near the location where they rescued Fu Chen.

The addition of many doubts made him have to keep an extra hand.

Next, Shao Huachi climbed down and told everyone to keep the stone slab slightly open, and then screamed, the more miserable the better, making noise, as if being burned, but the premise was that the slate could not be fully opened.

Although they didn't understand Shao Huachi's meaning, everyone still followed suit. The screams were easy to handle. They could scream in various styles with any voice, but it was a bit difficult to make movements. After all, they couldn't go out, and How can you make a sound.

The solution was figured out, the two teams combined, and since Shao Huachi stated that he couldn't go out, it meant that the so-called exit was dangerous, and if people couldn't do it, they used things instead.They wanted to create another chaos, so they untied their weapons, water bottles, etc., and threw them out of the tiny opening, making as much noise as possible.

Such a bad idea is a very suitable mode of confusing audiovisuals for an office room with particularly good sound insulation.

Seeing that the chaos created was almost done, Shao Huachi called a timeout, and the next step was their most important step, and he hadn't thought of a good way to resist this step.He had already passed through the limited range of sight just now, and discovered that a chain trap has been set up here, that is, as long as they fully open the exit of the stone slab, the white phosphorus on the top will be activated, and when the white phosphorus is sprinkled, it will be linked to the gunpowder on the ground. package, causing a series of chain reactions.

But now if there is no movement inside them and they sit and wait to die, then the ones who deal with them may not be traps but real military horses. With their current injuries, they will definitely die if they don't fight, but there is still a chance of survival if they fight.

That being the case, of course everyone chose to fight.

White phosphorus must fall, but they cannot die!

To deceive the people outside this organ room, they must find a way to completely open the stone slab later, and then block the opening with something before the white phosphorus falls.

This process sounds simple, but in practice it is difficult.

But one of the key points is that the stone slab has been tampered with. When the stone slab door is fully opened, it cannot be closed, but if it is not fully opened, the white phosphorus on the top cannot be activated to fall. It's a dead end, now they have to find a way to get something that can fill the entrance in a short time, so as not to let the white phosphorus fall down and hit the people below.

But people outside are still waiting for their movement here, how can they think of a way to block the hole in a short time.

When everyone was at a loss, the previous guard who thought that his life was not long and did not want to drag Shao Huachi and others knelt down towards Shao Huachi.

Others don't know why this man named Dayong is acting like this all of a sudden. Shao Huachi is not a person who usually puts on airs. His Royal Highness Seven is the most indifferent among the princes, but he is also the one who cares most about the people at the bottom.Shao Huachi took a step forward and tried to pull him up, but he couldn't pull him up, "Man has gold under his knees, don't just kneel to me if you have nothing important to do."

"Master, I feel like I can't hold on any longer. This subordinate wants to... fill that hole." Dayong said his idea, as if he was afraid that Shao Huachi would disagree, and continued: "If there is no suitable thing Going to fill this place, everyone will die, so why not let me go alone, as long as I go up, I can find something that can block it in the fastest time, even if there is no one, I can resist it for a long time with myself. Let the white phosphorus be sprinkled here."

Hearing the soldier under him say such a long paragraph, Shao Huachi only noticed the words "fill that hole", "fill...what to fill it with?"

It took a while to realize what it meant, and the anger was beyond words, "You are my soldier, so there is no..."

"Master! Now is not the time to act impulsively. If people from outside rush in, everyone will..." Dayong burst into tears, and a burly man cried like a child, "Even if we are all dead, nothing will happen to you .”

If they were alive, who would want to die? Some other guards who were seriously injured and felt that they could barely hold on looked outside, then looked at this big man, gritted their teeth, and made some kind of decision, stumbling forward , slowly knelt down in front of Shao Huachi, "Dayong alone is not enough, there are us!"

This kneeling, kneeling is a life, it is the last persistence and fearlessness in their hearts.

Shao Huachi's nose was sore, his eyes were already dyed red, "Shut up... shut up all of you!"

"Your Highness, there is no time!!!" They kept looking towards the exit, for fear that someone would rush in and finish them off the next moment.

The atmosphere was heavy, but no one stopped them. Looking at the straight backs of these guards, they formed an inexplicable spirit. It seemed hard to imagine that such a group of people could risk their lives for someone's life.

Qing Ran heard that call, Your Highness?

At this time, no one paid attention to such details, and could not care about them.

"I beg you to agree to our last request! You once said that you should treat every battle as your last. Even if you die, you must die well, and we who follow you should do the same!"

Shao Huachi had indeed said these words. On the battlefield, he himself was just one of the crowd.

Dayong climbed to the foot of Shaohua Pool and kowtowed continuously, as if he wanted to kowtow all the rest of his life that he hadn't kowtowed, "Your Highness, the state of Jin has decayed, what kind of life are our people living? No one saw , All the nobles in the palace turned a blind eye, you are our hope, and our tens of thousands of people rely on you to continue walking."

Among so many princes, only His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince has done facts, flood prevention and disaster relief, guarding the frontiers, taking personal risks, never being greedy for money, and not taking advantage of the common people for his own merits, they value such a Highness.

When those pairs of eyes looked over, the pressure was almost breathless, Shao Huachi's whole body seemed to be convulsed, and the veins in his temples protruded, looking extremely hideous.

He struggled to utter the most difficult word since he was born: "Good."

"Please issue the military order." They were soldiers, and they insisted on dying with the dignity of a soldier even at the last moment.

Shao Huachi looked at the soldiers pleading for orders, as if he wanted to remember their last appearance, time seemed to stand still, and his hoarse voice slowly uttered their names one by one, "All generals obey orders, block the exit, we—— Not an inch of ground."

The last sentence has something to say, but the previous ones are firm.

Other people looked at them, even if they were themselves today, they would make the same choice, maybe just because they had no choice.

Opened the stone slab of the exit, as Shao Huachi expected, it could not be closed, the guards only took a look, this was already expected in advance, not surprising, they rushed outside quickly, when they found that there was no Anything that blocked the exit, the last soldier who came out almost blocked the loophole with his body without hesitation.

Soldiers piled up one by one, blocking the exit tightly.

White phosphorous bullets were sprinkled on the top soldier, and his screams were endless, whipping the hearts of the people below.When the top soldier was burning on his back, he reluctantly left the people below him quickly. Someone hugged the gunpowder bag and was blown to blood in an instant.

They fell, holding on to the last line of defense.

"...Woo..." Qingran covered her mouth and burst into tears.

Not only Qingran, whether it is Fu Chen's people or other soldiers of Shaohuachi, looking at the exit that is still tightly blocked, each of them has extreme pain and hatred in their eyes, burning with rage towards the enemy. Grill them.

Maybe these soldiers who sacrificed themselves today will not leave their names in history at all, and not many people even remember their names, but at this moment, each of them is a hero, and they will always be remembered in the hearts of Shao Huachi and others.

Shao Huachi's eyes were moist, and he said softly: "Fu Chen, this is what you said, you will become famous soon... Are you dead?"

Why don't I want it at all.

When there was no movement at all, all Shao Huachi and the others could see was the exit, the person who was almost burnt to a skeleton but still straddled above, guarding until death.

At this time, it was unknown if the explosion touched some mechanism, the closed door opened again, Shao Huachi looked at the deep distance quietly, "Let's go."

He couldn't even collect the corpses of these people, because those bones were poisonous.

The poisonous gas drifting to the place has already caused many people to vomit, leaving now is the top priority.

The burning substance of white phosphorus is also highly toxic. They cannot breathe this gas for a long time, and he wants to protect everyone else. In the past five years, he has realized time and time again that as the prince, what he undertakes is a A word called responsibility.

This point, Fei Qing, who was the instigator, couldn't be more clear, so when everything calmed down, Fei Qing didn't go in. Just in case, he asked people to stay outside and wait for the poisonous gas to completely dissipate before going in. Considering Due to the huge toxin erupting from the corpse inside, he set the time for "opening the coffin for autopsy" one month later, and the organ room was temporarily sealed off.

Li Yu didn't make any comments, and he was very quiet. Seeing that he was wounded by an arrow, Ah Si found a room that hadn't been completely burnt down, put him in, and asked a few guards to watch him. Give him regular dressing changes.As soon as he went out, he saw Ah Yi with a dignified expression, "What's the matter, why do you still look depressed after all the seven kills have been resolved?"

"Are you sure it's resolved?" Ah Yi smiled.

"What do you mean, don't beat around the bush, just say what you want to say."

"I just finished vomiting and when I wanted to take a break, guess what I saw. Li Yu was trembling in front of the mechanism room, looking quite patient. Don't you think this is weird?"

Ah Si was somewhat disapproving. Li Yu was very painful and very patient. He was aware of this. Over the years, he had often persuaded Ah Yi to ease the conflict between him and Li Yu. In fact, he knew that Ah Yi also loved Li Yu at first. Yes, but all this began to change completely after Ah San left, and Ah San transferred his anger at Ah San's death to Li Yu.

"Ah Yi, you have been targeting Li Yu all these years, blaming a child for Ah San's death, and letting him bear everything. Don't you think it's unfair? We don't feel good about Ah San leaving. , but Li Yu is also very sad, you should let go of your prejudices and try to accept him."

"Child! Child? You see him as a child one by one. He thinks that he is playing a prank and pampering him. Don't take it seriously. Why don't you think about it carefully? Why do you feel this way? These are just what he created for you. The illusion!" Thinking of this, Ah Yi wanted to vomit blood, Li Yu is really good at acting, even their extremely wise lord was bluffed by Li Yu, what a terrifying existence.

"Yi, this is all your personal prejudice."

Ah Yi sneered, who is biased? It is you who are too partial to Li Yu, "Since he appeared, Ah San has inexplicably rebelled. Do you think this is possible? Still a child, 19 years old, a giant baby? You guys?" Why don't you take a look at these strange places."

Ah Si also seemed a little helpless, "Is this the reason why you did not hesitate to send the underlings to assassinate him continuously?"

Hajime couldn't help taking a step back, "How do you know this?"

He thought that what he had done all these years was secretive enough.

"Do you think the lord doesn't know what you are doing? Ah Yi, Li Yu intercedes for you again and again, or else you think there is something that can escape the lord's eyes." Such unstable factors are what the lord hates the most. .

"He pleaded for me, just to make you feel sorry for him even more. I don't have the ability to pretend to be pitiful." Ah Yi also knew that Li Yu's was eloquent and impeccable, and he was almost flawless. If he didn't catch Li Yu's handle, either there was no problem, or he hid it too deeply. He was more willing to believe it was the latter.

This time was the biggest flaw, and it was Li Yu who took the initiative to deliver it to the door.

"I remember Li Yu said a word, the turbid will see the turbid, and the clear will see the clear." Ah Si continued to persuade, seemingly unmoved at all.

This implied meaning changed Ah Yi's expression. This Li Yu was like a monster. He even felt faint fear. In the past five years, Li Yu has been subtly brainwashing the people around him. He didn't think there was anything wrong with Li Yu. Even Fei Qing, who had just gotten close to Li Yu, was not talking about what he said, and admired him very much.

Ah Yi realized that maybe Li Yu had reached the point where someone would automatically lie for him even if he showed his flaws.

At this point, if he didn't get rid of Li Yu, he was worried that there would be even more unimaginable results.

"Si, let me ask you one last question, do you believe in me, who has been a brother for many years, or him?"

The serious look in Ah Yi's eyes made Ah Si realize the seriousness of the matter. Ah Yi was already in a state of attack. Was pressed down and did not answer the question.

In Ah Si's view, one of these two people is a brother he has trusted for many years, serving the lord together, and the other is entrusted to him by another best brother before his death, and he takes care of him as a younger brother. En Tubao's child, with such a considerate younger brother, anyone would be biased.

Let him choose, if he believes in both, how can he tell them apart?

But it was precisely his silence that made Hajime seem to have found the answer, and turned to leave.

Li Yu must be removed.

The two of them didn't know that Fu Chen, who seemed to be in a coma from the pain in the room, slowly opened his eyes and listened to their conversation. A flash of unbearableness flashed in his eyes, but then he closed them tightly again.

A few days later, Shao Huachi and others closed the door and completely cut off the poisonous gas, but without the poisonous gas, problems followed one after another, such as food.Shao Huachi and others who returned to the arsenal hadn't eaten for many days. They were too hungry to walk. If it wasn't for the water outside the cave, they wouldn't even be able to survive these few days.

They have already checked the outside of the armory, because the landslide is very severe, if they don't want to be buried alive, they can only dig carefully, but after all, they are not professional diggers, and they can only dig out a small hole after three days. Able to pass with a minor body.

At this time, a thin and small man stepped forward, he was a dwarf saved by Shao Huachi in a battle, and a dwarf is just what the Central Plains people call this nation.The people of this ethnic group are generally not tall, but their bodies are flexible. They belong to the ethnic group that is closest to the Jin state among the 48 countries in the Western Regions. The tribe was rescued.

Fu Chen lost his eyesight, so naturally he didn't see this little dwarf, but Fu Chen could vaguely distinguish that there was a person in Shaohuachi's team who was particularly flexible.

In fact, it was him. Since the little dwarf was exterminated, he discarded his previous name and instead named himself Zhu Ru with the pronunciation of the Central Plains people. Maybe he was laughing at himself or maybe he was alerting himself and wanted to start again.After recovering from his wounds, Zhu Ru took the rest of his tribe and joined Shaohuachi and became ordinary soldiers in Shaohuachi's team. Although they were ridiculed by others, they were naturally cheerful, so they were able to get by. It's just that the combat power is not satisfactory.

No one paid attention to them, but at this time, they played a huge role.

In the past few days, the water they drank in Shaohua Pool was provided by Zhu Ru through the small tunnel dug.

The cowhide water bottles they carried with them were all thrown out to create a commotion in the organ room, so there were only the last water bottle left for so many of them, which was not enough to drink at all.

Shao Huachi took the kettle from Zhu Ru and thanked him.

"What are you talking about, Your Highness, isn't this Zhesha Xiaoxiao?" Zhu Ru was a little embarrassed.

Shao Huachi ignored Qingran's gaze. It is estimated that he had already been discovered, and Shao Huachi didn't bother to explain. Maybe he was really hungry and weak, maybe he knew that Qingran would not choose to speak out if he had a conscience. Now what qualifications do you have to betray yourself again.

Shao Huachi didn't drink it himself, but passed the water bottle to the people around him, and asked them to take turns. Everyone knew the price Zhu Ru had to pay for climbing once, and how difficult it was to collect edible water in the cave. I tasted it many times to test the toxicity inside, so I cherish this pot of water very much. Many people just wet their lips and don't really drink it.

But he was reprimanded by Shao Huachi, "Everyone should have at least one sip, this is a military order."

Then he looked at those under Fu Chen who didn't want to drink water, "Since he handed you all over to me, now that he's not here, you have to listen to me and drink as much as you want. If you trust me, don't resist orders .”

Fu Chen is very good at teaching people, before and now, Shao Huachi is very clear about this point, even at this time, Fu Chen's subordinates have not lost their discipline.

Because there wasn't enough medicine, one of the brothers got infected and died, and the body was already smelly here.

Everyone endured grief, and finally chose to dig a hole where he was, and buried him on the spot.

Even though they were so hungry that their eyes turned black, they didn't propose to eat this person's flesh and blood, even if they knew that if they ate it, they could at least last for many more days.All the process seemed simple and solemn. After burying, he knelt down facing the small mound. So far, the two teams have been indistinguishable from each other.

When everyone finished drinking the water, Shao Huachi moistened his lips with the last water and kept the remaining water. If the small hole dug outside was buried again, this is the remaining hope. Don't plan for a rainy day.

The only good thing now is that there was no movement outside for three whole days.

If there's no bad news, it's good news.

Seeing that Shao Huachi still didn't drink water, others knew that it was useless to persuade him, but they all saw it. Qingran also gradually understood why King Yin made those wounded soldiers willing to sacrifice themselves in such a painful way for him .

Zhu Ru brought good news to Shao Huachi. When he was looking for water, he found that the cave on the side that collapsed for the first time seemed to be halfway through. With his figure, he could try to get out.

Feiqing was also about to leave this day, and even called Li Yu. He knew that his time limit was approaching, and it was a miracle that he could survive these five years. , is exhausted the last strength.When she woke up this day, she saw the white hair falling from the pillow, and she just pulled it in handfuls, so Fei Qing shaved her head.

When Li Yu was almost recovering from his injuries, when Li Yu went out, he met Fei Qing who had just become a monk.

Li Yu's eyes were naturally invisible, so of course he didn't know that Feiqing had shaved his head, but in the early morning, he had chatted with the people around him and said that Feiqing wanted a razor, so it was easy to guess.

He needs to collect more information than before and go out of the house as little as possible, excuse his injuries, and avoid too many crowds, in order to avoid suspicion to the greatest extent.

"Brother Fei, are you going to become a monk?" Ying Hongluan's stronghold is still a little undamaged, and they are temporarily rectifying here to observe the movements in the agency room, but there is no sign of anyone in the whole three days. Everyone knows that the group of people below are probably dead.

At this time, Li Yu held the empty bowl of porridge that he had just finished drinking, and looked at Feiqing in a fuss.

You must know that except for shaving, men and women will not cut their hair casually. This is unfilial and affects their reputation.

"Li Yu, leave with me." Fei Qing was simple and clear.

Li Yu flashed a flash of clarity, "You are going to prepare..."

Fei Qing nodded, no matter how low the success rate of the resurrection technique was, he wanted to try it.According to the deduction of the horoscope, the arrival of the seven kills is through such a heaven-defying method. Since someone is willing to give up the 99th emperor's life for the seven kills, why can't he try this slim chance?
