The Golden Age Chapter 616: Fire Thunder
The Taixuan Temple Hall was eventually destroyed by a fire. The officers and soldiers searched everywhere in the Taoist Temple, but they also found a batch of knives and crossbows. Although the number was small, it was shocking.
In addition, a lot of property was found in the Taoist temple, but nothing was found in any books or the like.
Ma Xingguo also knew very well that since Huang Yang was ready for the soldiers to attack, even if he had useful letters or the like in his hands, he would not be able to stay and deal with it early.
The officers and soldiers found a carriage and transported the corpses of the officers and soldiers, including the corpses of Taoist priests such as Huang Yang, but they were left in the Taoist temple.
In order to beware of any omissions, Ma Xingguo asked people to search through the corpses of Taoist priests, especially Huang Yang, who turned them inside out, but didn't find anything useful.
Qin Xiao expected that it would be impossible to find any useful clues, so naturally he would not eagerly search for anything.
The officers and soldiers in the Taoist Temple went back and forth, and it was very noisy. Qin Xiao simply walked to a quiet place alone to analyze and sort out all the things after entering Suzhou.
A gust of wind blew, and there was a smell in the wind, but there was also a strange smell. Qin Xiao looked around and found that there was a hut in a corner not far away. The smell naturally came from there. It came from inside, but the strange smell in the smell was rather strange.
Naturally no officers and soldiers will pay attention to this hut.
Qin Xiao couldn't help but approach the past. The closer he got, the stronger the strange smell. When he reached the door, he didn't rush in, his brows tightened, his eyes sharpened.
Only because he already felt a slight breathing from inside.
After entering the Fourth Stage Mid-Heaven Realm, Qin Xiao’s sensation ability is already extraordinary. There is breathing nearby, which can be easily detected. Unless the opponent is a martial arts expert who can control and hold his breath, he must try to hide it. Qin Xiao is not easy.
But the person in the hut is obviously not good at controlling his breathing, and is even very nervous, so his breathing is heavier than ordinary people.
Qin Xiao frowned, and had just counted them. Tai Xuan Guan's 23 Taoist priests, including True Man Huang Yang, were killed, and it was determined in advance that Tai Xuan Guan had only 23 people in total. After the corpse was counted by the officers and soldiers, he was guarded. In other words, there shouldn't be a twenty-fourth person in this Taixuan view.
But there are people in the hut.
Is it convenient for soldiers to be in the latrine?
He stood for a while, but the person never came out. Qin Xiao knew that there was something weird in it. He walked in slowly and glanced around. No one is left.
The breathing suddenly disappeared, but soon, it reappeared, and it was thicker.
Qin Xiao looked at the haystack, sneered in his heart, and his breath disappeared. He naturally knew that the man noticed someone coming in and immediately held his breath, but he couldn't control it for a long time and couldn't hide it.
"Come out!" Qin Xiao said lightly: "I'm waiting for you outside. If you don't come out, I can only ask the soldiers to drag you out." Without saying more, he left the hut.
After a while, he heard a sound coming from behind, he turned his head and looked over, only to see a small Taoist boy trembling out of the hut. Under the moonlight, this Taoist boy was only fourteen or five years old. Several years younger than Qin Xiao, he looked very immature, his face was covered with dirt, but he was extremely pale.
The officers and soldiers had no idea here, but Qin Xiao looked up and down, frowning and asked: "Are you a person of Taixuanguan?"
Dao Tong trembled all over, and his voice trembled: "I...I don't...no
It's the bad guy, I...! "The teeth only fight.
"I ask you one sentence, and you answer one sentence. If there is a word of lies, kill it immediately." Qin Xiao said coldly: "Are you the disciple of Taoist Huang Yang?"
Tao Tong said: "He...he is not my master, he...he killed my master."
Qin Xiao was startled, and said suspiciously: "What do you mean?"
"My master is the master of Ping An Guan. He was killed by him two years ago...two years ago." Although Dao Tong was frightened, his words were clear: "There are two brothers, also... .. They were all killed by him."
Qin Xiao frowned and said: "Where is the Ping An View?"
"Ping An Guan is far away from Suzhou City. It takes three days and three nights to get here." Tao Tong said: "Ping Ping Guan is very small, including me, there are only four people. There are no people nearby. , Very remote.....!"
Qin Xiao is even more strange: "Why did Taoist Huangyang kill your master?"
"He..... He asked my master to give him the formula, but... but the master refused to agree, and then he tortured the master to death." Tao Tong's tears flowed down: "Two seniors Also killed by him, he...he wants to kill me too...!"
"Wait a minute." Qin Xiao said immediately: "Recipe, what formula?"
Tao Tong lowered his head, but did not speak.
"Taoist Huangyang is a traitor. If you don't explain truthfully, you will be rebelling against the party and chop off your head." Qin Xiao sank.
Tao Tong shuddered and blurted out: "Yes.....It's the recipe of Fire and Thunder!"
"Fire thunder? What fire thunder?"
"It's... the fire thunder that made a loud noise before." Dao Tong explained: "As long as the fire thunder is lit, it will explode. Anyone who approaches will die. ."
Qin Xiao immediately thought of the mysterious weapon in the hall. Ma Xingguo said that the weapon was so powerful that more than a dozen people were killed and wounded. If Ma Xingguo wasn't a breastplate protector, he would have died in Huangquan.
"You made the fire thunder?" Qin Xiao asked in amazement.
Tao Tong hurriedly said: "Yes.....It's Huang Yang.... Huang Yang Taoist forced me to do this."
Qin Xiao was waiting to ask again, but he heard footsteps behind him, turning his head, I saw Song Liang walking towards this side, and said loudly: "Master Shaoqing, Master Changshi said...Huh, Who is he?" But the Dao Tong had already been found, and with a "choking", he had already pulled out the knife.
Song Liang was previously injured by the real Huang Yang, but fortunately, there was no serious problem. At this moment, he suddenly saw a small Taoist boy and he was immediately alert.
When Xiao Dao Tong saw Song Liang drew his sword, his soul was frightened, and he fell on his knees: "I...I am not against the party, the adults are kind, don't kill me."
"He was hiding in the hut and was discovered by me." Qin Xiao said: "Go and call Lord Chang Shi to come over."
Song Liang was also surprised, but he didn't dare to disobey Qin Xiao's orders and turned to call Ma Xingguo.
"What is your name?"
"The name given to me by the master is too spiritual!" Xiao Dao Tong hurriedly said: "My master's surname, the common surname is Zhang, Zhang Tailing!" Pleaded with Qin Xiao: "Master, I am not a bad person, nor am I a mess. Party, please don't kill me."
Qin Xiao whispered: "Zhang Tailing, remember, if anyone asks you anything except me, you don’t know, just say that real person Huang Yang secretly arranged you to enter the Taoist temple and waited by his side. , Other than that, I don’t know anything. If you do as I say,
There is still a chance to survive, otherwise you will die if you say the wrong thing, remember? "
"Remember, thank you, Master. I listen to you. Whoever asks me, I don't know." Zhang Tailing is very grateful.
"You can't mention another word about your master and Huo Lei." Qin Xiao sneered: "Huo Lei killed many officers and soldiers. They want to know that Huo Lei is related to you, and they must cut you down. Mashed meat."
Zhang Tailing was shocked, and raised his hand to cover his mouth like a conditional launch.
When Ma Xingguo came over, he was surprised to see Zhang Tailing.
"Master Qin, is he hiding in the hut?" Ma Xingguo doubted: "Taixuan Guan clearly only had 23 Taoist priests. Only then did he count the corpses. There are a lot of corpses. How come one more?"
Qin Xiao smiled and said: "I have already asked, this little Taoist boy was sneaked into Taoist temple by Huangyang Old Tao, and forced him to wait by his side."
Ma Xingguo stared at the trembling Zhang Tailing, and said solemnly: "Look up!"
Zhang Tailing didn't dare to defy, and raised his head.
Under the moonlight, despite the dirt on this little boy's face, his eyes are clear and handsome.
"Why were you brought to Taixuan Temple by Huang Yang?" Ma Xingguo asked coldly: "Are you his party?"
Zhang Tailing glanced at Qin Xiao, and saw that Qin Xiao was calm and composed, bit the bullet and said: "The trail is from Cangnan County. Two years ago, Taoist Huang Yang was forced to take him to Taixuan Temple and waited for him to serve tea and pour water. , He doesn’t let the trail show up, so he can only stay in this backyard day and night."
"Cangnan County?" Ma Xingguo hesitated and looked at Zhang Tailing. Seeing that he was young and sincere, he asked: "Then do you know he is a congregation of the Queen Mother?"
"The trail really doesn't know anything." Zhang Tailing said: "Usually he does what he says, and he must avoid the trail. Only when he rests can he wait on his side. My lord... my lord. Xiaodao never heard him talk about the Queen Mother."
Ma Xingguo sneered: "It's okay if you don't say it now. You'll know when you return to the first trial." He told the soldiers behind him: "Come on, take him back to the yamen and lock him up first."
The soldier used to take Zhang Tailing up, Zhang Tailing looked at Qin Xiao with begging eyes, Qin Xiao ignored it.
When Zhang Tailing was taken away, Ma Xingguo said: "I thought that the Taoists in the Taoist temple were all dead, but I didn't expect to find a living in the hut, and Master Shaoqing made a great contribution."
"Actually, I think this little Taoist priest really doesn't know anything." Qin Xiao smiled and said, "Old Huangyang Taoist be careful and keep secret important matters, so he will definitely not let a little Taoist boy around him know. But first Lock him up and interrogate him carefully. Yes, how is Lord Chang Shi's body and is he injured seriously?"
Ma Xingguo touched his chest and said: "I have suffered some minor injuries here, and it will hurt as soon as I use force. After I go back, I will find the doctor to see the injury. There will be no life worry." sighed: "Tai Xuan Guan this The gang of bandits have stayed under our noses for so many years, and we are ashamed that we know nothing. Fortunately, we will get rid of these bandits tonight. Otherwise, waiting for them to become deeply entrenched in Suzhou City will result in disastrous consequences."
"Master Chang Shi really thought that the Queen Mother in Suzhou City would be eradicated?" Qin Xiao asked, looking at Ma Xingguo.
Ma Xingguo was startled, and then asked: "Is there still a congregation of Queen Mother in Suzhou City?"
"Go back to the Assassin's Yamen to see the lord." Qin Xiao said: "Although the Taixuan Temple has been annihilated, the real power of the Queen Mother of Suzhou Association is still on the side of Taihu Lake. Next, Mrs. Assassin should plan how to deal with the Taihu Pirates. ."
