When the guard said this, he was afraid to raise his eyes to see Mr. Zhao's anger, so he just lowered his head and reported: "There is indeed a cat next to the street lamp, but I didn't see it clearly. In an instant, the lamp fell to the ground and caught fire instantly! The flames were so high that there was a forest next to it...the cat ran away immediately when it saw the fire."
"Absurd! Really absurd!" Mr. Zhao spoke harshly but shook his head and sighed, "If it wasn't for neglect of duty, how could the fire be ignited? At most, it fell on the ground and burned the lantern. If it was discovered in time, it would not have burned the forest at all. Flower cat? Where did it come from? cats? From my point of view, you guys definitely don’t want to do this job—”
When the guard heard this, he immediately knelt down, lowered his head and said nervously: "Your subordinates dare not talk nonsense! Not only us, but also the north of the city. The cat is on the side, the street lamp fell, and the fire started all of a sudden, and it was too late to put it out! At that time , I smell a fragrance..."
"The cat you're talking about," Gan Qing immediately interjected, "Is it bigger than normal cats? There are spots on the body and ring patterns on the tail?"
The guard was stunned: "How would Mr. Xia know?"
"I'm afraid you northern soldiers have never seen these seven-section raccoons. The locals know that they exist on the Nanshan Mountain outside the city."
Mr. Zhao was surprised and said: "Then how could Mr. Xia—"
"My servants saw Xiangquan with a seven-section raccoon this morning, and he was still lighting something there," Ganqing said with his hands on his hips and a wry smile, "who knows what happened."
Mr. Zhao asked: "The Qijie civet is a civet cat? Why is the civet cat in the city?"
"The local people sometimes catch and raise them from outside the city. The fur of the civet civet is good and can be sold for a good price. It is said that the civet fragrance extracted from it is also expensive."
Mr. Zhao was surprised and said: "The seven-section raccoon is a civet? Civet incense is a good thing."
Qianqing only heard the name of civet incense, but didn't understand its use.Seeing that Mr. Zhao seemed to understand something, he asked about the use of civet incense.
"Civet, beaver, ambergris, and musk are the four major animal fragrances. Nobles like to use it in their houses. I heard that there are a lot of civets in the tribute this year. However, these good things have not escaped the fate of being delivered in recent years. "
When Qianqing heard the word "delivery", Mr. Zhao's expression was not good, and there was a faint disdain and anger under the light.The territory of the Song Dynasty was repeatedly violated, and had to rely on sending a large amount of supplies to protect the country's well-being.It is the greatest tragedy of a country to sacrifice things for peace.
Master Zhao was obviously sad, and gradually his eyes dimmed.
Yang Fuyin didn't think about it, but asked the guard anxiously: "How many places are on fire?"
"As far as I remember, there are eight locations. They are scattered in every corner of the city," the guard said with a serious expression. "In my opinion, it seems that the cause of the fire is the same."
Master Zhao frowned: "You mean..."
"There is a scent in the place where the fire started, and I saw the civet cat - I am afraid that the civet cat was attracted by the scent and overturned the lamp."
Gan Qing nodded and said: "It makes sense. I heard that Xiangquan seemed to be lighting something up in the morning, and then the seven-section cuckoo was attracted."
Yang Fuyin was surprised: "What can be lit to attract civet cats?"
"What else can it be?" Mr. Zhao replied impatiently, "civet cat incense. This product is extracted from civet cat sachet bag, and the smell is strong after burning. The so-called opposite sex attracts, and the male civet civet emits a scent to attract the female. It’s the same reason, so it can attract civet cats.”
Nodding dryly, this kind of spice is so expensive that ordinary people can't afford it.Mr. Zhao is a Beijing official, so he must know more.
The three of them were silent, as if they were thinking.Qianqing didn't ask any more questions, and found a place to sit down.He crossed his hands and lightly supported his forehead, sighing.
Things are getting more and more complicated. At this moment, Qian Qing really wants to catch the thief.
Yongcheng was in chaos, and no one knew what the purpose of the Tsing Yi Bandit was.Ants were put in the courtyard, and a rhinoceros was taken away with a cat; after that, a few fires were put on, relying on spices and civet cats.But the Tsing Yi thief himself did not appear from the beginning to the end.He did so many things with the instincts of animals without showing his face.
The Tsing Yi Bandit is really no ordinary thief.
Gan Qing naturally didn't know his purpose, but only felt that the Tsing Yi Bandit's methods were so clever that it was hard to fathom.Everyone in the government office was played around, and Qian Qing himself was not his opponent at all.
It would be great if Xiangquan was there.
Ganqing felt that he had never seen such a thing in his more than 20 years of life, which was beyond the scope of his thinking, cognition and control.He was tired, and he didn't want to implicate innocent people again, and he didn't want to make a storm in the city.
There are so many strange things tonight, it would be great if it could end at this moment.
However, the heavens failed to fulfill people's wishes, and Qianqing didn't know that this moment was only the beginning of the disaster in Yongcheng.
Just when he closed his eyes and wanted to take a rest, there was a sound of swords clashing, which was very clear.Then there was a "bang", as if something fell to the ground!
Hearing these voices, Qianqing opened his eyes all at once.
Someone is fighting nearby!
Ganqing cursed "that thief who killed a thousand swords", stood up tiredly, and looked towards the door.And Fang Qian was at the door at this time, and immediately drew his sword and flashed out after hearing the sound.Several guards followed closely behind, drawing their swords and crossbows, and quickly left the yard.Ganqing heard a mess of footsteps, noises, and the sound of arrows leaving the string, and someone shouted "Run there" and "Hurry up"!
A sense of dread hit Qianqing.
He hurriedly followed, trying to walk faster, but his feet couldn't be controlled, and his heart was pounding inexplicably.While walking, the branches of Lin Yuan scratched the clean clothes, but he didn't realize it.
Yang Fuyin panicked, and quickly stood up: "What's going on? What's going on tonight?"
"It sounds like someone is fighting." Mr. Zhao was also exhausted, and the two hurried out on the cobblestone road, following behind Qianqing.
The Yongcheng government office was in chaos, guards were everywhere, and it was a mess.Gan Qing looked towards the street, and there were several guards around the corner in front of him, who seemed to be watching something; there were more than a dozen guards holding torches, and ran towards West Street.
The leader is Fang Qian.Qianqing was very surprised, and hurried towards the crowd: "What happened again? Why did Commander Fang take people to West Street?"
The guard gasped: "Just now, we saw the Tsing Yi Bandit! He, he ran towards West Street!"
"What?" Gan Qing's eyes widened with disbelief, "Are you sure it's the Tsing Yi Robber? He actually appeared! Then don't you chase after him? Go after him! Don't chase him and run away! Also, What are you doing around here--my God!"
Qian Qing's face suddenly turned livid.
He knew why some people stayed here.Several guards held torches and surrounded the street into a small circle. Under the shadow of the fire, there was a person lying in the center of the circle.
Gan Qing's eyes were straightened, he numbly pushed away from the crowd, and forgot to speak in surprise.
The man on the ground was dressed in white and completely unconscious.He held a sword in his hand and was still bleeding.
It turned out to be Xiangquan!
His blood flowed all over the place.
