018 kerosene

Half a day later, the government posted a notice stating that Dr. Cheng was a spy from the Yue Kingdom with sinister intentions. He poisoned the eldest prince in the medicine, causing the eldest prince's life to be in danger. It also stated that there were other Yue Kingdom spies lurking in the city.

, please common people cooperate with the government to find out these spies from other countries to avenge the eldest prince.

The news spread throughout the city at an incredible speed.

Jing and Yue were feuding countries. When the people learned about it, they all got excited and the atmosphere in the city suddenly became solemn.

He Zhifu officially ordered the city to be closed, and from now on it is strictly forbidden for anyone to enter or leave Danyang City.

From time to time, police officers patrolling and searching can be seen in the streets and alleys.

Every household in the city was searched by the government officials, and even the Gu family's house was no exception. Even if they showed the badge of Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, and even if Mrs. Gu was also in the house, the government officials still searched mercilessly.

Gu's house was searched. Of course, they were not allowed to leave the city.

In the next few days, the city was filled with a strong air of murder, and there was a roar of wind and thunder.

"Tap tap tap..."

On the street, a group of policemen holding torches escorted two prison cars roaring past menacingly. The people pointed at the prison cars and sighed.

A pair of sinister eyes looked at the street outside through the holes poked in the window paper, their eyes seemed like a bottomless abyss.

After the officials walked away, he withdrew his gaze, closed his eyes, and sat motionless on the chair, his whole body seemed frozen.

Suddenly, the wind picked up.

The clouds moved with the wind, and thick black clouds made the dusk sky gloomy and gloomy.

The sky was getting dark, and the night sky was as black as ink, with no stars visible.

"Sixth Master," a dark-skinned middle-aged man appeared in the room and respectfully crossed his hands to the man in blue on the chair, "Shopkeeper Huang and the others have been imprisoned in the government dungeon for the time being. They have not been summoned.

Please tell me your whereabouts."

"Let people continue to stare." Liu Ye opened his eyes, his eyes were cold, his voice was hoarse, and his expression could not hide the look of exhaustion.

These days, his life has not been easy.

The day before yesterday, he escaped from Cheng's Medical Center through a secret passage, and then went to another stronghold. However, the officials launched a large-scale search in the city, and he could only hide and change several strongholds.

However, in just three days, most of their Yue Kingdom strongholds in Danyang City were successively sealed off by the government, and most of the spies lurking in the strongholds were also captured.

It can be said that ten years of hard work were almost destroyed in one day.

Mr. Liu closed his eyes again, his heart ached with pain, and he finally realized what it meant to feel like a knife piercing his heart!

Danyang City is only four hundred miles away from the capital. It guards the sea route and the North-South Grand Canal and has convenient river and sea transportation. It can be called the gateway to the capital. Danyang City is too important to them.

"Yes." The middle-aged man responded respectfully, paused, and then said cautiously, "Sixth Master, we still have twelve people available here. My subordinates have carefully investigated and found that there are no problems with them."

He could be sure that it was not Yue who leaked the secret to the government.

"..." Mr. Liu half-squinted his eyes, showing a bit of coldness.

The officials in Danyang City have been searching for three full days, destroying so many of their arrangements, but they still have no intention of stopping. This shows that they are targeting something purposefully.

The answer is obvious, they must be coming for him.

This time, he traveled all the way north from the Kingdom of Yue to discuss the details of an alliance with King Kang of Jing Kingdom on the orders of the saint.

Only King Kang knew that he had come to Danyang City.

King Kang wanted to use him as a pledge of honor to be dedicated to Chu Yi, or to Emperor Mingde!

King Kang is really very scheming. On the surface, he and Emperor Mingde are incompatible with each other, but this is not the case. These brothers are just deliberately putting on a show to lure them to cross the border?!

Treating them as monkeys across the country.

He was fooled!!

The sixth master was filled with hatred and punched the window frame so hard that his hands were numb with pain.

This time, he finally snatched the job from Xia, and even issued a military order in front of the saint.

If he fails to do this job well, Xia Houqing will definitely add insult to injury. Moreover, even the military power in the southwest will fall into Xia Houqing's hands, giving the opponent even more power.

He will never allow things to get to this point!

There was a turbulent wave in Mr. Liu's eyes. There was anger, unwillingness, and even more vigorous ambition, which was churning endlessly.

After a while, he suppressed his intense emotions and asked in a calm tone: "Where's the kerosene?"

"The kerosene is ready." The middle-aged man lowered his upper body a little and replied solemnly.

Master Liu moved his hand joints, cracked his knuckles, and commanded in a deep voice: "Let them act as planned."

In this simple sentence, there is a desperate determination.

The middle-aged man solemnly accepted the order and then retreated.

It was already late at night, the candles in every house were extinguished, and the people were sleeping soundly. The streets were empty and silent, with only a few birds chirping echoing in the night wind.

A dozen men in black sneaked out from the back door of a lacquer shop, avoiding the police officers and watchmen patrolling the streets, and shuttled through the deserted alleys, as agile and agile as ghosts.

Half an hour later, a group of people headed by Mr. Liu came to the alley outside the back door of Danyang Mansion. The surrounding area was dark and terrifyingly quiet.

Without Mr. Liu's instructions, a group of men in black spontaneously opened the jars they carried with them, quickly walked around the walls of the government office, and poured the liquid in the jars on the corners, trees, and climbers one by one.

A wall covered with vines.

"Whoa, whoa-"

Along with the splashing sounds, a slightly pungent smell spread in the night wind.

The night was getting darker, and the wind was strong, making the trees creak, like a group of demons dancing wildly.

Mr. Liu, holding the huozhezi in his hand, slowly walked to the foot of a vigorous old tree. A section of branches slanted over the wall and penetrated into the government office.

The flames on the fire fold swayed in the wind, and the flickering light of the fire added a sinister look to Mr. Liu's handsome and rugged face.

He wanted to see if Chu Yi died in Danyang City, whether King Kang and Emperor Mingde could continue to be brothers and sisters!

Liu Ye suddenly let go, and the Huozhezi fell vertically...

"boom!"

The moment the flame touched the kerosene, it spread rapidly to the surroundings. In a short while, the surrounding area turned into a sea of ​​blazing fire, greedily and crazily devouring everything it could.

The flames dance wildly, climbing and spreading along the trees, vines and walls, and gray smoke rises in curls.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The sound of the third watch was heard in the distance. It was late at night, and the people were all sleeping soundly. They knew nothing about the leakage of water in the government office. However, Chu Yi and the three people who had just walked out of the government office through the corner gate saw it at a glance.

firelight.

"Young Master, you're in trouble!" Xiao Shi raised his head and looked towards the back of Danyang Mansion Office and shouted in a low voice.

Chu Yi, wearing a white cloak, was beside him, with his chin slightly raised and looking in the same direction.

With just a snap of the fingers, the fire became more and more intense, and the red flames reflected the night sky above.

Sihai frowned and said hesitantly: "Your Highness, judging from the location, it should be at the back door of Danyang Mansion. Is it possible that someone from Yue is here?"
