Vol 4 Chapter 998: Bao Tian

Qi Ning snorted coldly and said, "Qin Yuege, you are so brave. Who instructed you to do all this?"
Qin Yuege respectfully said, "Hou Ye, I don't understand what you can't do for a while." She looked at Mrs. Tian again and apologized: "Ma'am, there are a lot of offenses, it is really compelling, please forgive me!"
"Qin Yuege, what the are you doing?" Qi Ning frowned, glancing at the black shadow over there, and asked, "Who is he?"
"Hou Ye, the humble office invites you to go to a place to see something, and after you have seen it, you will understand everything." Qin Yuege said aloud: "The humble office will also understand the ins and outs of the matter and carefully identify Hou Ye."
"Where to go?"
Qin Yuege pointed at the hole and said: "From here, all the puzzles will be solved."
"You let me get into this hole?" Qi Ning said coldly: "Where does this tunnel lead to?"
Qin Yuege said: "Humble people believe that Hou Ye must be interested in the things inside. Hou Ye already knows that this island is actually a warehouse. The existence of these people on the island is to guard the warehouse here." Dongkou said: "This passage took more than two years before and after, that was just opened a few months ago. Until now, no one on the island has discovered this secret."
"You mean this tunnel leads directly to the warehouse?" Qi Ning understood.
Qin Yuege nodded slightly and said, "Exactly!"
Qi Ning thought about it, and asked a moment later: "Qin Yuege, this island has hidden troubles, it seems that you already knew it."
"Hou Ye, the humble office said that this matter is very complicated. Only when Hou Ye saw the goods in the warehouse, the humble office can report the cause and effect." Qin Yuege said: "This matter is of great importance, and the humble office dare not talk nonsense."
Qi Ning hesitated before saying: "Okay, you go first, I will follow."
Qin Yuege didn't say anything, put away the knife, gave Qi Ningwei a hand, then went to the edge of the cave, and looked over to the black shadow. The two met each other and nodded, Qin Yue The song was short and walked into the cave, and the dark figure also came over and looked at Qi Ning. His eyes were cold and nonsense, and he went behind Qin Yuege.
Waiting for the two to enter, Tianfu whispered: "Hou Ye, you have to be careful of them, don't be fooled by them, in case there is a trap in this tunnel!"
Qi Ning smiled and said: "You don't have to worry about me, even if they really set a trap, they can't help me." Putting Mrs. Tian down carefully, leaning against the rock and sitting down, she said softly: "Ma'am, they said That ’s right, the things on this island are indeed of great importance, and they are likely to threaten the court. Since I ’m here, I always have to figure out what is going on. I do n’t see any trace of the bandits on the island. You are waiting for me here, I will be out soon, OK? "
Although Mrs. Tian was worried, she knew that since it was a matter of concern to the imperial court, she could not stop herself and could only say softly, "Then you have to be careful!"
Qi Ning nodded slightly and thought of something. He put the cold blade in his hand into his wife ’s hand and whispered: "It should be safe here. In case there is really anything, there is something that can be resisted in the hand. This knife cuts iron like mud. It's very sharp. "In fact, he knew very well that if Qin Yuege really wanted to be detrimental to Mrs. Tian, ​​he wouldn't let him find it so easily. Since the entrance of this underground grotto has not been found, it proves that it is still safe here.
Qin Yuege is an enemy or a friend, and he is not completely sure at this moment. If he is really skeptical, Qi Ning does not have a cold blade in his hand. With his martial arts, Qin Yuege cannot be an enemy at all.
The stone cave was dark, and Qi Ning was on alert. He stooped and walked slowly inside. The stone path climbed up a few tens of meters, and the stone road climbed up again. Qi Ning walked for a moment, and found that there was faint fire in front of him. , Approaching the past, has reached the end. Qin Yue singer at the exit is waiting for Qi Ning with a firebreaker. Qi Ning came out of the cave and found a huge rock on the edge of the cave. He looked back and looked at the cave again. Understand that this rock is used to block the opening of the cave and has just been removed.
He looked up and found that he was already in an extremely empty stone room at this time. What he saw in front of him was actually a pile of wooden boxes. The wooden boxes were very neatly arranged. Look, Qin Yuege and the Black Shadow stand in front of themselves, looking at themselves.
Qi Ning did not speak, and moved forward slowly, Qin Yuege followed Qi Ning with a fold.
The stone room is very wide, and the boxes are so many. Qi Ning only feels that these boxes divide the inside into a labyrinth. There are thousands of boxes stored here.
Qi Ning walked to the edge of a box and suddenly turned around, pulling out the knife from Qin Yuege's waist. Qin Yuege was very calm. Qi Ning pulled out the knife and tucked the blade into the gap in the edge of the box lid The wooden box was pryed open. At this time, the shadow had followed. He picked up the lid with both hands and placed it carefully on the side. The box was filled with things, and the upper layer was covered with yellow grass. Qi Ning reached out and took the yellow grass Pulling it apart, a closer look reveals a horrified look on his face.
Among the wooden boxes, there was a box full of blades.
He immediately looked at Qin Yuege. Qin Yuege just nodded. Qi Ning then pried open two boxes in succession, and they were all equipped with knives. In each box, there were also twenty or thirty new blades.
"Hou Ye, all the boxes here are equipped with weapons." Qin Yuege lowered his voice and said: "It is mainly a large sword, and there are short swords and spears." Raised the northwest corner of Shouxiang to point to the past: " The boxes are filled with long bows and arrows. It has been estimated by the low office that there are at least 20,000 large swords and spears here, and there are nearly 1,000 long bows. The number of arrows is not much, and there are crossbow arrows. Hundreds! "
Immediately after the founding of Chu, the imperial court issued a knife garnishing order.
The most important item of the sword garnishing order is that all equipment that can be used as weapons are strictly forbidden to be owned by the people. The weapons of the long sword and the spear of the arrow can only be owned by the government. For a class of weapons that are close to weapons, there are strict management by the local government, what kind of farming tools each household has, and local government offices must have accounts. Once they are not convinced by the truth, they go down to the village chief and up to the local officials. Be severely punished.
The world is undecided, the strong enemy in the north is watching, and Chu's move is also to prevent civil disturbances.
According to the usual practice, the Donghai Jiangjia is just a trader, and naturally it is also not allowed to possess weapons. However, because of the special circumstances, the Donghai Jiangjia caravan has been trading with Nanyang. The home formed a maritime team to protect the smooth flow of merchant ships, but even so, the government on the East China Sea will strictly check the number of weapons that the East China Sea Jiangjia possesses.
The Jiang family must report to the local government even if it needs to add an extra knife, otherwise it would violate the court law and be punished according to conspiracy.
At present, such a huge amount of weapons are stored in the underground warehouse, and the rebellion is already obvious.
After Qi Ning knew that the cargo was stored on the island, he had been thinking about what kind of cargo it would be, but he never thought it would be a weapon.
The empire forged weapons belonged to the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Industry had a forging field dedicated to forging weapons for the court. Even so, there was no approval from the Ministry of War. The types and number of war blades must strictly abide by the documents proposed by the Ministry of Defense.
Moreover, every weapon from the forging field must be strictly inspected, not only to check the quality of the weapon, but also to be particularly cautious about the number of weapons. There is a special government office to count the number of weapons that appear on the scene. This set of procedures is extremely standardized and strict. There is no room for sloppyness, and after playing, the whereabouts of each weapon must also be registered, and it will never let the weapon not be monitored by the court.
The procedures for forging weapons in the court were so strict, not to mention the folk.
Civilians who find that someone has forged weapons privately are directly treated as rebellious crimes ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The crimes are several times more serious than the private possession of swords. Once the crimes are cured, they directly involve the three tribes.
If the Jiang family purchases weapons from Nanyang and sends them back to the East China Sea, there is of course a great risk. As long as the wind is leaked a little, the consequences will be unimaginable, so the Jiang family is stupid and it is impossible to purchase so many from Nanyang. weapon.
Qi Ning has only observed the style of knives, which is obviously the method of forging weapons by the Central Plains. Qi Ning even doubts whether Nanyang has such advanced forging technology. Even with this technology, it is doubtful whether it can supply such a large number of weapons. .
Qi Ning did not think of one of the most important reasons in this warehouse, that is, it was difficult for him to imagine where these weapons came from?
Of course, the Jiang family in the East China Sea will not be stupid enough to collect weapons from the East China Sea to this island. The court has always been wary of the Jiang family, so the Jiang family has always been under surveillance in the East China Sea. When a box of these goods was found, The court will never show mercy to the Jiang family.
Therefore, of course, these weapons cannot be shipped from the shore. If so, where did they come from?
"Hou Ye, these weapons are only a temporary quantity." Qin Yuege's expression was serious and solemnly said: "Two batches of weapons are sent here every year, and there are at least a thousand pieces together."
Among the major battalions of the Chu State ’s garrison in Beijing, Xuanwu Battalion has the largest number of troops, but it only has 15,000 soldiers and horses. Once the weapons are used here, it is enough to supply tens of thousands of people. Once it really appears in the East China Sea One thousand rebels, the consequences can be imagined.
Qi Ning handed back the big knife in his hand to Qin Yuege. Qin Yuege closed the knife into the sheath. Qi Ning had stared at his eyes and asked: "Qin Facao, since you have been staring at this thing for a long time, then you naturally know this Who is the mastermind behind? Ben Hou asked you, who is the mastermind behind this island? "(Https :)
