The cry was thunderous.

Hundreds of thousands of people inside and outside of Shuzhou City yelled loudly in their mouths or cursed or prayed, but their eyes were fixed on the two powerful arrows that hurriedly flew, and they were greeted by the two statues. The two fire dragons that came out, the heart was mentioned in their throats.

There was a muffled "bang", before everyone could see exactly what was happening in front of them, the flames were suddenly blazing, and for a while, it seemed that the sunlight in the sky was eclipsed. Almost everyone was pierced by the flash of fire. I closed my eyes.

Suddenly, the raging fire from the flat ground instantly enveloped the surroundings of the two statues. At a glance, it seemed that the entire land under Shuzhou City was burning.

The war horses involved in the two statues, as well as the sergeants who were guarded by the "shield" scattered on the left and right of the two statues, were too late to struggle with a call sign and were swallowed up by the sudden fire.

The fire was vomiting thick smoke, and for a while, there was nothing in this world.

The heat wave hit his face, and Han Chang turned around and ordered the whole army to retreat slightly. He couldn't help but feel frightened and angry.

Although with his eyesight, he couldn't really see the scene when the powerful arrow shot by Song Jun hit the black fire of hell from the mouths of the two artifacts, but based on the situation in front of him, he could also roughly infer what's going on.

Those two powerful arrows might not be able to shoot into the mouths of the two divine artifacts, but the strength contained in them actually caused the hell black fire ejected by the two divine artifacts to scatter in all directions, instantly igniting the densely distributed under them. The thick layer of wooden arrows shot by Song Jun cut from wood sticks.

It turned out that Song Jun used the sharpened sticks as arrows not only to increase the effective range of killing, but also to prepare for the scene before him.

Using fire to deal with various large-scale siege equipment was originally a method often used by the defending army in a siege.

It's just that these two divine artifacts can spit out the black fire of hell and shock people's hearts. Han Chang didn't expect that Song Jun actually dared to fight fire with fire.

The wind is violent and fierce.

Han Chang took a few steps forward with Ma Qiang.

It was just that despite his exhausting eyesight, he couldn't see the current situation of the two statues of gods and demons in the black smoke that was as thick as the substance.

These two artifacts are all made of wrought copper, which is different from ordinary siege equipment, which is mostly made of wood. They are not so easily damaged by fire. This is also Han Chang's carelessness. He did not expect one of the meanings of Song Jun's true intentions. .

It's just that the fire in front of him was as fierce as the sun falling from the sky, but Han Chang couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Even Song Jun himself would never have expected that the flame ignited by the black fire of hell would burn so fast and so fiercely.

He listened to the slightly chaotic footsteps of the Jurchen army that had just rearranged its formation behind him, took a deep breath, turned his head, and winked at the Dashan who was stunned by the scene in front of him.

The Dashanman of the Jurchen tribe, received a hint from Han Chang, and finally recovered. He hurriedly threw his body to the ground and saluted the burning flames, chanting the ancient songs of the Jurchen tribe, praising the great god Abukai. The gods and demons who control the envoy in Endu summon the flames of hell and burn all enemies and sins.

Those Jurchen warriors who were frightened by the scene in front of them, inspired by Da Shanman, also set themselves up to worship the blazing flames.

After all, the power revealed by the two statues of gods and demons had already left an indelible mark in their hearts.

In their hearts, the statues of gods and demons that can summon the black fire of hell are undoubtedly originally the spirits of fire.

The unusually blazing flame in front of him was also summoned by these two divine artifacts.

They were angered by Song Jun's provocation, and such a fire was a precursor to their provocation.

It must be!

Han Chang heard that the Jurchen soldiers behind him finally settled down, praising the incredible power of the god Abu Kain, and heaved a sigh of relief.

On the battlefield, no matter what the situation, the morale of the army is the last thing that cannot be thrown away.

It's just that the confidence of the Jurchen soldiers at the moment is built on the two artifacts that are in the flames.

Han Chang took the first two steps again unconsciously.

Now I only hope that those two artifacts can be safe and sound.

Black smoke rises.

Fire You Lie.

……

"It's rare to see each other, why should Master Bao go in a hurry, and not recount the friendship of the past with the next official?!" An official dressed in a red robe and jade belt divided himself into two columns under the escort of several yachas. The crowd of people stepped out slowly, but in their faint tone, there seemed to be a bit of icy hatred.

"It's you?!" Bao Daren caught a glimpse of the official's vicious face filled with yin, and couldn't help but shrink his pupils and called out aloud.

"Hahahaha!" Wan Yumao gave a guffawful laugh. It took him a long time to fix his eyes on Bao Daren's face, and gritted his teeth and said: "Yes, it's me, it's me, I'm alive again. Master Bao's face is shocking and inexplicable, and it's not in vain for you and my master and servant."

At this time, Bao Daren had recovered from the initial shock of the accident, and said with a wry smile: "As the saying goes,'The law of heaven is clear, the retribution is unhappy', but now even a man like his brother can escape from the crime, and stand in court again, Bao Mou How can we not be shocked and surprised, feeling inexplicable."

"Humph", Wan Hao was choked, his face turned, he looked up and down Bao Daren, and said, "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, it would be hard to believe that this official would be a humble actor who waggled his tail and flattered in front of me in the past. Today, I can actually talk in front of the official in five people and six, and for my own selfish desires, I can invent what to do for the country and the people, and set off a huge storm in Lin'an. As expected, it is three days away from the scholars. Look at it with admiration!"

The crowd of onlookers around wanted to become full, and at this time they kept buzzing.

In Lin'an City, as many gossips as possible, the confrontation between Wan Taomao and Bao Daren in the past is also an interesting event. So far, four or five different theories have been spread around. It can be said that the streets are known today. I can see that the characters in these two stories meet each other in a narrow way, and arguing in the street is naturally a crowd of viewers.

Bao Daren frowned slightly, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart.

He has known each other for several years. He has known that this person is small-minded and savagely retributable. He is more powerful and powerful. He is an out-and-out villain, but he is a scheming and scheming man. Vicious, but by no means ignorant, he was originally a big helper of Qin Hui's party members in the court.

It’s just that he was on the court of the court, in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, and he revealed that he had framed Yue Fei. He was the imperial offender of the emperor’s official order to inquire about the crime. He went down to the edict and waited for Si Tie to sting him. The official family is out of war, and it is reasonable to say that even Yue Fei, who knows Lin'an staying behind, has no right to release him.

But now Wan Chengmao is not only publicly released from prison, but also wearing scarlet official uniforms. He is obviously a civil official costume of the third rank or lower of the Song Dynasty. Although he is not ranked as the second rank of the former Yushi Zhongcheng, but It is also absolutely unreasonable.

In the current Lin'an City, the only person who can accomplish such a thing is Qin Hui, the prime minister of the imperial court.

Although in name Qin Hui only knew about Lin'an staying behind and was under Yue Fei, everyone knows that in the current environment, it is only Qin Hui who can move the big and small yamen in Lin'an, the central hub of the Song Dynasty. .

Qin Hui has been in the country for more than ten years, with his hand in charge of the country, and his party members are scattered throughout the ruling and the opposition.

It's just that, in any case, Wan Qiang was also ordered by the emperor's official to be taken into custody. Qin Hui so openly released Wan Qiang and did not shy away from appointing an official position, but it was no less than a challenge to the authority of the emperor's official.

Since the emperor’s official family expelled the golden envoy from the court, Qin Hui has been hiding his powers and bidding his time and staying in the simple. Now although the emperor’s official family is out of war, his uncharacteristic behavior during the few days is left behind among the court’s ministers and generals. The impression of the wise Shenwu is almost unshakable, and now Yue Fei and his own two donations have also condensed the thoughts of the Lin’an city military commander system. Although Qin Hui controls the operation of the government system, if he wants to How to turn the clouds and the rain, but it is not very possible.

With Qin Hui's old traitor, why did he assume such a high-profile posture at this time

Could it be...

When Bao Daren thought of this, he couldn't help being startled in a cold sweat.

Could it be that the frontline military situation has changed again, and the emperor's official family has an accident

He no longer wanted to cause trouble, and said lightly: "There is a god who raises his head three feet, whether Bao's policy is to harm the country and the people or benefit the country and the people. It is not a matter of distinguishing the right and wrong. After a long time, he will have his own opinion. If you have business affairs, you will leave first."

He bowed his hand to Wan Tuo, turned around and wanted to leave in a hurry, and asked Yue Fei about the military situation on the front line, but he was once again caught by Wan Tuo.

A light sneer appeared on Wan Tongmao's face, and he said: "Official business?! This officer happens to have a business matter to inform Master Bao."

"Oh?" Bao Daren was slightly startled: "Please tell me."

Wan Yumao sneered slightly: "The current official is the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, who is responsible for investigating and prosecuting Mr. Bao and his cadre Wu Jianli. In the process of collecting two additional donations, they cleverly established names, greeted Mexican public funds, and filled their private pockets. If necessary, thereafter. Where Master Bao cooperates, I hope Master Bao will read the friendship of the past and open the door to convenience."

"What are you talking about?! Greedy?! Who do you say is Bianli?!" People in the military have long since waited for the treacherous minister who framed Marshal Yue to be skinned and fried, standing aside Hao Liujin, thinking about Bao Daren's face I had already tolerated it for a long time. At this time, seeing Wan Tongmao utter insults, he couldn't help but shouted, but everyone's ears were buzzing.

Wan Chengmao couldn't help but change slightly. He took a step back, but said coldly, "It's not just yelling that makes sense. You sergeants who participate in the collection of donations are paid monthly according to their duties. Foreign food and payment, is this a fact?!"

The crowd of onlookers around could not help but make waves of discussion, and they kept pointing and pointing.

Hao Liujin's beard and hair were all upright, and he was about to come forward to theory, but he was held back by Bao Daren.

Bao Daren shook his head and sighed slightly. The main official of the Song Dynasty system is different from the official official. It is a rule not to distribute regular money when performing something, but the people don’t know much about this kind of thing, and it is extremely troublesome to explain, especially in Wanwan. It is vain to talk about it deliberately, under the premise that everyone is preconceived.

In addition, Hao Liujin was born in the army and was not good at speaking. He might have been trapped by Wan Qiang in a few words.

When Wan Tuoyuan himself was the middle prime minister of Yushi, he was best at holding Qin Hui's meaning, Luo Zhi framed the loyal and straight minister of the court, and now Qin Hui was appointed to take charge of this matter. Obviously, he has put on a posture to be out of nothing and make trouble. He should also go to Yue Fei as soon as possible. Discuss how to deal with it. It is profitable to speak more here, but it is also very useless.

He bowed his hand to Wan Tuao with a blank face: "Bao remembers that before the emperor's official family left Beijing, he said: All appointments and removals from the fifth rank and above must be decided by the emperor's official ruling. To order Shaoqing from Dali Temple who is responsible for the review, Bao Mou will cooperate in accordance with the law."

He paused slightly, and said softly, "The laws of the country are brilliant, and the days are clear. In Lin'an City, who should be brought to justice, who are the people who greet the law and harm the country and the people, I am afraid that my brother is the clearest in his heart."

"You..." Wan Cheng was speechless for a while, unable to speak.

He, the young man of the Dali Temple, is indeed Qin Hui taking advantage of the power of the three provinces. He was issued by the Zhongshu Province. There was no emperor's order. Bao Daren had always called him "brother" instead of "adult". He obviously did not recognize him. The legitimacy of the official position of Shaoqing in Dali Temple.

There were clear and arguable chuckles from the surrounding people.

The story of "Tian Ri Zhao Zhao" is known to passers-by in Lin'an City, and everyone knows what Bao Daren said like this.

Bao Daren looked at Wan Tu's face that was red and white, and smiled faintly. He was about to walk, but he heard Wan Tu's call: "Wait!"

He turned his head, but was seeing Wan Qiang suppressing his anger, approaching, and whispering in his ear: "Qin Xiang wants to see you!"
