Heavenly Dao Formula

Chapter 417 Flame

"Are you crazy! Open the door!" Uncle Deng shouted from behind.

Huo Ying struggled to get up, and limped towards the second floor.

"Boy of the Huo family, I think you don't want to die!"

"My lord, he broke the key crookedly!"

"Get a stick to pry open the door—"

The voice was gradually left behind by him. At this time, Huo Ying had only one goal, which was to go to the second floor and ring the alarm bell there.

This warehouse is equipped with alarm facilities.

Although its original intention was only to warn of riots or mining accidents inside the mine, and the sound could not be transmitted too far, but if it sounded in the middle of the night, it would definitely attract the attention of the security team and even the Jinxia garrison.

Huo Ying thought very clearly that if the other party could bribe the guards of the post and Uncle Deng, they might have tampered with the security team, but it was easy to bribe one person, and it was almost impossible to bribe everyone without leaking the news. This is also the reason why they only had contact with Uncle Deng in the manager's tent, but he and Zheng Ming didn't know about it.

Based on these reasons, it is extremely risky to attract the attention of the security team by shouting for help on the road, but switching to a copper bell is much more reliable. As long as the twenty or thirty people stationed in the mine are not all bought, someone will always pay attention to what happened here.

Huo Ying felt that his thoughts had never turned so fast before.

It's as if all the energy is used to think about countermeasures.

It's ridiculous, if you can put so much effort into your studies, why worry about not getting a Jinshi?

He ran all the way, went straight up the stone ladder to the second floor, slammed open the wooden door of the room where the bell was hung, grabbed the rope in his memory, and yanked——

The rope slipped down quietly.

Huo Ying was stunned.

Where is the clock?

He raised his head, the top of his head was pitch black... he couldn't see anything. However, the rope has fallen to the ground, which can only mean one thing-someone came here earlier and cut the rope.

These plans of his... all turned into shattered bubbles.

Suddenly, a violent dizziness came to his mind, causing Huo Ying to almost fall to the ground. He shook twice, stretched out his hand to support the wall, only to realize that he was panting so badly that he felt like he couldn't breathe.

what happened.

It is said that scholars are weak, but that is for Zhou Dacai and Chen Gongzi. When he was at home, he had to do some physical work every day. When he arrived at the Baisha Mine, he didn't run away with the craftsmen of the Machinery Manufacturing Bureau. Weakness had nothing to do with him... that's right.

He took away the palm that was holding his waist, and the palm was wet.

Not only that, even the corners of the clothes seemed to have become greasy.

Didn't it just pierce the fur, he thought.

—Otherwise, how could you not feel the pain?

...

Even the bolts on the iron door cannot withstand the repeated prying of a few wooden sticks.

The warehouse door was finally pushed open completely, and the group of people could finally light the torches and search for the target of this trip.

"I didn't expect to be set up by a brat." The leader, Chai Rong, looked around the warehouse and ordered with a cold gaze, "If anyone finds him, remember to notify me."

He originally wanted to wait for the man to enter the house before killing him.

Now he doesn't intend to let the other party die easily.

Don't let the other party cry and beg for mercy, the depression in my heart is really hard to get rid of.

"My lord, I probably know where he is." Uncle Deng lowered his head slightly.

"oh?"

"There was a bronze bell hanging on the top of this building, which can be used to warn the four directions, but... I dealt with the rope yesterday, and it looks the same as the original, but in fact the other end is no longer on the bell."

"You have a heart." Chai Rong grinned, it was indeed the best choice to use this person as a breakthrough, and his vision of seeing people was still accurate. Even if the Jinxia people have an army under the mine and a guard stationed on the mountain, as long as they find the weakest point in the line of defense, they can still gallop freely. "Take me to see."

When the two came to the bell room, they didn't see Huo Ying, but saw blood all over the place.

Following the blood trail, they found the Jinxia city reserve official in a corner.

Half of his clothes have been stained with blood, showing a rich dark red. His chest was still heaving slightly, proving that he was still alive, but death was close at hand.

Tsk, Chai Rong spat secretly, it seemed that his sword stab was too deep.

Now even if he stabbed him with a knife, this person should not be able to utter any heart-piercing screams.

"Hey, look at you. After reading books all your life, you can't even understand a big truth." Uncle Deng shook his head, "Is the sage book taught you to help the rebel?"

"No... the same..." Huo Ying said in a low voice.

"What's the difference?" Uncle Deng frowned.

He lifted his chin slightly and looked at the two of them, "When he said that he was for the common people, his expression was different... Now I finally understand why listening to the great talent of Zhou... and listening to Mr. Xia say such words, why do I feel the same? It’s the same thing that’s being said differently.”

This question has troubled Huo Ying for a long time.

But now he has an answer.

When Zhou Sheng mentioned the common people in the world and pleaded for the people, he was talking about others.

His demeanor was exactly the same as this Master Chai.

No matter how big the scope of the common people is, they are not in it.

As for that Master Xia... Huo Ying only met him once or twice in the training class, but every time he mentioned Minsheng, that Master seemed to be telling his own story.

No matter how small the scope, he did not set himself aside.

There are countless living beings in the world, and he is just one of them.

This is why the two groups of people said the same thing, but Huo Ying had completely different feelings.

"For the country and the people" is not for others, but for oneself.

To benefit the world is also to benefit oneself.

He raised his bloody mouth and murmured softly, "I understand the truth in the book..."

"Crazy talk." Chai Rong pulled out his waist knife, "Fortunately, I didn't treat the dying guy—"

In the middle of speaking, he suddenly froze.

Under the dim light of the fire, the spy saw a jet-black "thin line" behind the other party. If you didn't look carefully, it would be easy to confuse it with the shadow in the corner of the wall.

But that's not a shadow, it's a line made of something solid.

At the same time, Huo Ying's hands seemed to be tightly covering his waist, but one of them was completely covered by his body.

Chai Rong's expression changed drastically.

"you--!"

At this moment, brilliant sparks appeared between Mr. Huo and the wall!

Chai Rong pounced forward and slashed straight with his knife—his target was not Huo Ying, but the black line made of gunpowder.

It's just that the gunpowder was sprinkled almost close to the wall, no matter what kind of weapon it was, it was impossible to split it in two properly.

Uncle Deng was dumbfounded.

He saw the fire like a golden snake flying like a snake into the door of a house ten steps away.

"Boy of the Huo family!"

Huo Ying opened his mouth, as if to say something, but he couldn't see it anymore.

A raging flame burst out of the door, overturning the obstacles along the way, and finally pierced through the roof and spewed out——

"Boom————long—————!"

The silence of the night at Baisha Mine was suddenly broken by this violent roar. Both the Jinxia garrison and the security team of the mine saw the flame that tore through the night.
