Chapter 2300: Another way to open the gate

Zong Zheng turned his head to look at me with a ridiculous expression on his face, saying, "Why the question of aging?"
"..."
I just felt that my heart was beating fast, and I looked at him silently.
Zong Zheng was facing me and said solemnly, "His Royal Highness."
"...!"
Just then, I heard a muffled sound.
I thought it was because I was too shocked, and it sounded from my mind, but after a while, I found that everyone around me looked up and down in amazement, and then I realized that it really sounded like this .
Because I was in the space at the bottom of this dam, I was a bit at a loss. I did n’t know whether the sound came from under my feet or from my head. I just felt that the sound was dull like a thunder, although the sound was invisible At this moment, there was an inexplicable feeling of being swallowed up.
Faintly, he heard the people at the intersection shouting, "It's raining a lot, it's raining a lot."
"Look at it, the gate is open!"
The horses still did not stop, they continued to walk around in circles, pulled the twine on their bodies, and dragged the iron frame to turn slowly. Another dull sound came. Shouting: "Another gate is open!"
Although I can't see the situation above, I can already feel the surging momentum pouring down from the voice.
I stood there blankly. At this time, Zong Zheng finally felt like I was wrong. He looked at me in amazement and said, "Your Highness, don't you know-?"
I raised my hand and prevented him from continuing.
The thunderous voice sounded not only outside, but also echoed in my mind, the rumbling voice filled my whole body, making it almost impossible for me to ring other things.
I suddenly came up with a strange idea.
At that time, when the Folang machine artillery was born and it was massacred, was it the same voice?
Zong Zheng took another step forward: "His Royal Highness!"
I said, "Don't say it again, I--I know."
After saying this, I turned my head to Du Yan and said, "Du Yan, hurry up and remind everyone to guard the dam everywhere. If a stranger appears, kill it!"
As soon as I said this, everyone was shocked. Du Yan asked about the cause and effect and ran up immediately. Pei Yuanzhang came to me: "What's wrong?"
My cold sweats came out and Shen said, "They want to blow up the Sanjiang Dam."
"what?!"
Pei Yuanzhang was shocked, and even Zong Zheng and his children and grandchildren were shocked. I said, "I have ignored this before, and only thought of those who came to hijack me. , But they are here to meet some people. "
Pei Yuanzhuang frowned: "You mean, you Yan family-"
"Yes, those of Uncle Wu."
"How can they blow up this dam?"
I said, "Before that Cong Yunguan, I heard the abbot said that some of the things they used for alchemy, ground frost and stone Liuhuang were stolen."
Before, I did n’t pay much attention to this even if I heard it. It was just an ordinary case of theft. Just now I remembered. Taoists speak differently to ordinary miners. They call it The ground frost and stone remain yellow, in fact, are the saltpeter and sulfur used in the mining of mountains. These things are mixed together, and some primers can be used to crack the mountains!
Wu Shugong, those people stole those things from Cong Yunguan, didn't they just blew up half a mountain in Taihe?
But I think, at that time, they might just be an experiment and want to try the power.
Even the burning of the library in the academy was probably part of this plan. Their real goal was the Sanjiang Dam.
Destroyed this dam, you can open the door of Shudi for Jiangling's army to enter Xichuan, and after Shudi will be completely chaotic. By then, they can really do whatever they want in Xichuan!
When I heard that, everyone shuddered.
The old man Zong Zheng's face paled and said, "What a cruel trick!"
Pei Yuanzhang frowned. "But if they are going to start, why not start earlier and start before we come?"
After asking this sentence, everyone was quiet.
But the next moment, the two of us stared at each other, almost sparking in our eyes, and at the same time, there was a violent fighting sound outside, and someone shouted outside: "Be careful, they are going to break into Come!"
I hurried out a few steps, but I couldn't see the situation above, but I could clearly hear the sound of the sword attack. At this time Zong Zheng was also panicked: "What to do if they really come here-"
This dam is so huge that ordinary gunpowder will explode a large pit here at most, but it is not much for this dam. However, if they find it here, under the opened iron frame It's the center of the gate. If something is damaged here, then something really happened!
I hurriedly turned back and asked him, "Can you close the gate?"
Zong Zheng said: "No, once the gate is opened, it is necessary to wait until the upper water is discharged and the water level drops below the gate before the gate can be closed."
"How long will that take?"
"..."
Zong Zheng was speechless.
As soon as I looked at his face, I knew that I was afraid it would not be short.
In other words, our people must persist for this period of time.
After hearing this, Chabi Xing went out without saying a word. Pei Yuanzhang's face turned blue. At this time, he also said to Wenhu Wenbao: "Go up immediately, stop those people anyway, protect Sanjiang Dam. "
Wenhu Wenbao took the lead and immediately rushed up. Zong Zheng also said with a gritted teeth at this time: "If anyone dares to move this dam today, he will fight with him for his life!"
After that, he even ran out.
When he ran, his children and grandchildren were frightened. He hurried up to try to stop him, but couldn't stop it at all. He was scolded: "If this dam is destroyed, I can hardly blame it for all death ! "
The noisy voice went away.
This place is only me and Pei Yuanzhang, and Charin, Susu.
And those horses who didn't know anything, and were walking slowly by the iron frame.
Without a whip, their speed has slowed down, but the sound of killing outside has not been heard, the screams are endless, plus the pouring rain, after a while, the water flows down the slope. The smell and blood red rainwater quickly flowed to our feet.
Susu was so scared that her face changed.
And those horses, whether they were stimulated by such smell, seemed a little flustered, and several of them shook their heads uneasily and walked away.
Just then, another scream came from above.
A person even rolled down from the top and fell to our feet. When I saw that he was blood, he was cut with a knife on his face. He looked extremely horrified and hurriedly reached out to cover the side. Su's eyes were too late to be seen by her, Susu screamed in shock: "Ah-!"
This exclamation suddenly shocked the horses behind them. They also started to raise their front hoofs and screamed sternly. Several horses wanted to break the reins, but they could not shake for a long time, just turned the horse's head and began to fall. Running up.
I was scared too. What would happen to the gate if I ran backwards?
I hurried to step forward to stop, but before one step was taken, Pei Yuanzhang suddenly reached out and stopped me.
I turned my head to see that there was no surprise or panic on his face, but a dignified expression appeared, and he glanced at me.
At this moment, I seem to understand something.
Just then, Charin, who had been searching for the fine lines along the wall, suddenly said, "Everyone let go, get out of here!"
Pei Yuanzhang reached out to protect me and took several steps back. Susu was even scared by the corpse, and turned and ran out. After just two steps, she turned back to me and said: "Miss!"
Pei Yuanzhang reached out and grabbed my wrist.
At this time, everything is messed up.
My ears were filled with the sound of killing from the outside, the pouring rain, and the rumbling sound of floods. I thought this was all, but after a moment, those horses were turning around, desperately running, putting the iron frame When Uehara ’s reins that had been tightened were loosened and then tightened in the opposite direction, the iron frame began to slowly rotate in the reverse direction with this powerful force.
I stared with wide eyes and suddenly, my feet shook.
Pei Yuanzhang grabbed my hand and pulled me into his arms and hugged it tightly. I stared back at him. He gritted his teeth and said, "Don't panic."
"..."
"This is another way to open the gate of the Sanjiang Dam."
"..."
"Nobody knows."
During the conversation, the shaking under my feet was more severe, as if the ground was shaking. I almost thought that the dam had really been blown up by those people, but Charin stared at the wall with excitement when she saw the other side. I can see clearly now that the fine, barely visible lines just found by him have cracked slowly at this time.
A crack appeared in the wall, and it became bigger and bigger. As the iron frame turned in the reverse direction, the whole stone room began to turbulence.
Seeing this situation, Susu was so frightened that she ran to catch me, but as soon as she took a step, she heard a bang and suddenly dropped a stone wall from the top of her head, stopping her and Charin at once. Outside, the stone chamber was closed.
"Miss ---"
Her screams were completely cut off.
I looked at this scene in horror, then slowly turned back, and a stone door appeared on the slowly cracked wall.
