Chapter 269: Warding off evil spirits, docile beasts, but also bloodthirsty beasts
The door of the granary in the Lu Jiajun camp was opened, and Lu Yanchang drove straight in.
Looking at the newly delivered grains that were piled up in the granary, he shouted loudly: "Search carefully for me. All the grains must be carefully inspected. In addition, all the grains here must be allowed to pass before consumption."
Wild dogs have tasted it.”
In an instant, countless knives pierced the grain bag, and grains of grain slanted down from it.
Some soldiers took these grains, cooked them, and distributed them to the wild dogs outside the village. The wild dogs gathered more and more, each one wagging their tail...
The quartermaster looked distressed and frowned, "Isn't this a waste of food?"
The words haven't finished yet.
Suddenly... not long after the grains fell to the ground, what suddenly fell was no longer the grains, but white powder on the ground instead...
Lu Yan originally thought it was ground flour, and was still muttering in his heart.
"How could General Lu Meng be so thoughtful?"
But at this moment...
The quartermaster smelled a special smell and realized something was wrong. He dipped his hand into the white powder and brought it close to his nose to smell it. He was startled and took two steps back, his pupils widening for a moment.
"Yes...it's the Nirvana Stone! And...the Fire Scythe!"
Nishi is "alunite", which is recorded in "Shen Nong's Materia Medica". Its original name is "alunite" and it is a mineral medicinal material.
It can treat skin diseases such as eczema, mosquito bites, and jaundice...
However, alum itself contains trace amounts of toxins, and it can be toxic if taken internally in large amounts.
Once a large amount of alum is ignited, the thick smoke that spreads in an instant is enough to make everyone nearby weak and unable to move...
As for the fire sickle, it has a famous name in later generations - white phosphorus!
This kind of powder has an ignition point of only 44.1°C in the air. Under normal circumstances, a person will be poisoned and die if he inhales 0.1 grams of white phosphorus. Once ignited, it will cause a sky-high flame. The most important thing is, the white smoke it emits when it encounters a fire,
It is also very toxic.
Therefore, white phosphorus is often stored in water.
But...who would have thought that such "poisonous" things would appear in this grain?
"Major General, this..." the quartermaster quickly ordered people to pour water into the white phosphorus.
He couldn't understand why the "Nirvana Stone" and "Fire Scythe" were hidden in this food.
It costs food for others to eat, but it costs their lives to eat -
"Gudong" made a sound, and Lu Yan's face didn't look good. Looking at the nirvana stones and fire sickles that were getting more and more exposed, he realized something. His face showed surprise, and he quickly turned around and walked towards his father's military tent.
…
The Chinese military tent at this moment.
There was a desk and two cups of tea. Lu Xun and Han Xuan were kneeling on both sides of the table. Lu Xun said nothing and only drank tea.
Han Xuan seemed to have seen through everything, his eyes were watching his nose, his nose was watching his heart, and he just waited quietly.
"father…"
Finally, Lu Yan broke in as expected, and he panicked and told his father about the large amounts of "Nirvana Stone" and "Fire Sickle" found in the grain.
"...Dad...there are these "Nirvana Stones" and "Fire Sickles"...if there is an open fire, then...all the people in the Lu Family Army Village will either be burned to death, or...poisoned to death by the poisonous smoke that rises into the sky...etc.
The portion size, no one can be spared!”
Lu Xun picked up the tea cup, his palms trembling slightly. As he looked at the tea cup, he smiled bitterly, "This seems to be Sun Zhongmou's method!"
"My child... my child has seen it. Except for the outermost part which is full of grains, all the grains transported... are mixed with nirvana stones and fire sickles, a total of 200,000 stones. As long as it encounters open fire,
, enough to wipe out our Lu family army overnight!"
Hearing this, Lu Xun smiled bitterly again.
——"Didn't Taishi Ci disappear like this overnight?"
——"Marquis Wu has really not made any progress in these years!"
As Lu Xun said, in the Han Dynasty, the use of "Nirvana Stone" has been very extensive. Many Taoist priests used this "Nirvana Stone" as the main ingredient to make elixirs and medicines.
As for the "Fire Sickle", it was already used on the battlefield during the bloody battle of Shule City by the Thirteen Generals of the Han Dynasty. Using its boiling point, a rocket stirred up a fire dragon that soared into the sky, igniting the lives of countless barbarians!
These…
This is Sun Quan's secret weapon to deal with those powerful ministers and powerful officials who are getting stronger and stronger and cannot be checked by him——
With this in mind, Lu Xun raised his eyes and looked at Han Xuan.
"Mr. Han, you are right, and the Fourth Young Master Guan is also right. I didn't expect that I was fine yesterday, but today, I, Lu Xun, have become the protagonist in "Nirvana in Fire", and I, the Lu Jiajun, have become the one who is about to be buried.
Yu Meilin's Red Flame Army is so ironic, so ironic!"
Han Xuan said proudly: "After all, General Lu can still find his way back and make amends. It's not too late!"
Hearing this, Lu Xun stood up suddenly. His sudden standing up surprised Lu Yan and made Han Xuan startled.
"Dad? Your legs?"
When Lu Yan's voice came out, Lu Xun had already walked a few steps. He said softly: "My leg has been healed for a long time. I was just afraid that Wu Hou would be suspicious of me and afraid of me, so I pretended to be broken."
What a leg looks like! I didn’t expect...even if the leg is broken, Wu Hou is still not satisfied, what he wants is the death of me, Lu Xun!"
Speaking of this, Lu Xun bowed to Han Xuan.
"Mr. Han, since Master Yunqi can send Mr. Han to see me, he must have already found a way out for me, right?"
Han Xuan also stood up slowly. Seeing that Lu Xun's legs were intact, he couldn't help but admire the young man in front of him a little more.
——"He is also a scheming and wise young man."
"There is a plum grove in the valley five miles away from here. It is where the Jiaozhou soldiers are stationed. If General Lu can quietly move the army there... he can avoid this disaster without leaving a trace."
Don't wait for Han Xuan to finish speaking.
Lu Yan quickly raised a question, "Didn't Mr. Han say that it was the place where the Jiaozhou soldiers garrisoned troops... My Lu family and the Jiaozhou scholar family have a deep feud, and they are sworn in. If the Lu family's army goes there, wouldn't it be... that they just came out of the tiger's den?
Into the wolf's den again?"
Han Xuan's voice continued.
"It is precisely because this is where Jiaozhou soldiers garrisoned troops that Lu Meng's hidden sentries and detective horses cannot set foot there, and only that side is the safest!"
Lu Yan still had questions, and was about to ask, but Lu Xun stopped him. His pupils were wide open, as if he had realized something. He was stabbed in the back by Lu Meng, and was regarded as a thorn in Sun Quan's flesh, and he wanted to deal with it.
Soon... something more terrifying will happen.
——"Jiaozhou soldiers? Lu family? Wuhou?"
——"Guan Lin... Guan Yunqi!"
Suddenly, a bold guess lingered in Lu Xun's mind.
He realized it all at once...
After pondering for a moment, Lu Xun gathered his thoughts and said calmly: "Just...just follow what Mr. Han said..."
Lu Yan raised a new question... "But... Father, if there is a large-scale relocation of soldiers and horses, it will definitely cause..."
"follow me--"
Lu Xun ordered Lu Yan and also winked at Han Xuan...
Together they arrived at another military tent at the Central Military Department. This was a tent that was three times larger than Lu Xun's military tent.
Originally thinking that this was an arsenal, a place where ordnance was stored, Lu Xun ordered that no one be allowed to approach...
This time, Lu Xun personally opened the door curtain, and a secret passage that had been dug for a long time suddenly appeared in front of Han Xuan and Lu Yan.
--"This is…"
Han Xuan was surprised that Lu Xun had already made such arrangements and even dug a tunnel...
——"What a smart young man! He is so witty, he already looks like Mr. Yunqi..."
At this moment, he realized why Lu Xun was the one Mr. Yun Qi was determined to win!
It is Master Yunqi who wants to take him under his command even if he plans such a big deal!
Lu Yan was also horrified by the secret passage in front of him.
He couldn't help but murmur:
——"Did father have long expected such a day to come?"
——"No, is it because father couldn't trust the Marquis of Wu from the very beginning?"
Just when he thought of this, Lu Xun had already opened his mouth to give instructions.
To be continued...
