The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

Chapter 64: Exhibition of Extraordinary Power, Sun Shaozong's “Raise Steel Block with a Spear”

On that day, Sun Shaozong strolled in the garden of Jia Mansion in the East Wing, and he felt the mansion was super extravagant. However, when he followed Zhou Rui, the housekeeper of the Rongguo Mansion, into this “Provincial courtyard”, he found that he was inexperienced and ignorant.

The landscape decoration is better, not to mention that this area alone is more than ten times larger than the Jia Mansion's garden!

In particular, the two rockeries in the middle are facing each other in the distance across a pool of clear spring water. Visually, they are at least 40 meters high!

Sun Shaozong was surprised, not to mention several Yamen guards. Their eyes widened and they had already thrown their business away.

However, Zhou Rui had long been used to these delicacies. He entered the yard and without further ado, he first shouted to a young servant of Jia's family who served as the supervisor, and asked anxiously, "Have you seen the Fourth Master Qin?"

The young servant hurriedly pointed to the top of the mountain opposite and said, "The Pavilion on the Dongfu Mountain is about to rebuild the “pillar”, and the Fourth Master Qin is probably supervising it."

Zhou Rui glanced at where he pointed. He probably felt that the place was too far away and he didn't bother to continue looking for Jia Qin. He changed his words and asked, "Is there a carpenter named “Carpenter Zhang” among the carpenters we invited?"

Sun Shaozong saw the young servant looking confused on the side, and hurriedly added, "This Carpenter Zhang was scalded on his face when he was a child, so he had a scar on his face."

The young servant suddenly got it, patted his thigh, and shouted, "I thought who should it be? It's that stubborn donkey!"

Immediately, he reached out again and pointed to the rockery in the distance, saying, "The pattern on the pillar is carved by him. He is waiting for the Fourth Master Qin for the acceptance check on the mountain."

Zhou Rui was speechless for a moment, so he had to turn around and smile bitterly at Sun Shaozong. "I'm afraid I will need to trouble you guys to follow me up the mountain, Second Master Sun."

Sun Shaozong's attention was on the word "Stubborn donkey" and asked, "What is the meaning of the word "Stubborn donkey" you just mentioned?”

"There is no meaning to it."

He only heard that young servant continue to say, "A few days ago, the Fourth Master Qin saw that the sculpture on the corridor was behind progress, so he detained several carpenters and let them eat and live on the construction site temporarily until the sculpture was carved. However, “Carpenter Zhang” refused to agree and made a fuss to go home. In the end, he annoyed the Fourth Master Qin and suffered a whip beating, and this is how he admitted defeat."

No wonder the woman died of hunger and cold, it turned out that…

Sun Shaozong was silent for a while, and then raised his chin at the East rockery and said, "Let’s go up and get him!"

Thus, a group of people went their way and arrived at the foot of the East Mountain. When they were about to climb the steps, they saw more than a dozen people scramble down from the top of the mountain, including the Jia family servants in green uniforms and some craftsmen carrying all kinds of equipment.

Zhou Rui stopped a servant he is familiar with and asked. This is how he knew that the “Carpenter Zhang” had just climbed to the top and looked from far. In fact, he had seen a group of Yamen servants coming from below. He knew that he was doomed, so he simply made it double-or-quits. He climbed up and kidnapped Jia Qin with a carving knife, and then drove everyone down the mountain by threatening Jia Qin's life.

This is really what he’s afraid of!

Zhou Rui felt a little flustered, turned to Sun Shaozong, and asked, "Assistant Prefectural Magistrate Sun, what to do..."

"Let's go up first. I can't see the situation above. It's useless to ponder more here."

Sun Shaozong was a resolute man, and he took the lead to climb up without saying anything.

Zhou Rui had no choice but to follow up.

When the group of people just climbed to the hillside, they suddenly heard loud cries from the artificial lake. Sun Shaozong followed the source of the sound and looked over and he couldn't help but be stunned. He saw a colorful boat rippling with the waves on the lake, and a dozen women were standing at the bow of the boat, led by Wang Xifeng and Li Wan.

Sun Shaozong wouldn't be too surprised if it was just a group of beautiful women.

But at present, these two Young Madam of the Rongguo Mansion are a little too happy. They are jumping on the bow of the boat with their servant girls, shaking their arms and screaming, just like the cheerleader on the basketball court. Where is there any dignity of a lady?

He didn't know what the two Young Madam were up to, and he suddenly heard the Yamen guard behind him screaming like a ghost, "Master Sun! Look what's up there!"

Sun Shaozong hurriedly looked up again. He doesn't know there were several pillars with bucket thickness at the end of the stone steps, which were stacked. Only a slight push is needed to…

Boom~

This is really a wish come true!

Sun Shaozong had just thought about it, and the pillars rolled down with a “bang”. At this moment, he finally knew what the women were “excited” about!

Seeing that the pillars rolled faster and faster, it ran all the way hitting the railings on both sides and making the breakstone flutter in disorder. Zhou Rui and several Yamen servants were shocked that their faces changed color.

It is because the stone steps are manually stacked, beyond the stone railings on both sides, there are cliffs, and behind them are more than a hundred stone steps. There is no time to retreat. For a time, there is no way out!

"What to do?! What should we do?!"

"Hurry… Hurry and think of a solution! I don't want to die here!"

"Why don't we hang out by the railing and wait for the pillars to pass..."

Boom!

It was not easy for someone to come up with a reliable idea. Before everyone cheered, they saw that the pillar jumped more than three feet high, crashed into the stone railing next to it, and rolled down askew!

Boom! Boom!

Several pillars in the back ran over the debris of the railing, and all of them were bumping and jumping. They didn't know how many railings had been destroyed for a time!

Seeing this, everyone looked at each other, but their faces were pale.

Not only did everyone look pale on the stone steps, but the women on the colored boat also screamed in horror.

Liwan, in particular, was more concerned than others. Seeing that Sun Shaozong at this time was hard to escape, she suddenly had a ridiculous idea in her heart, “Is it true that I’m fated to mourn for my husband's death? Otherwise, why are the two men who I have been concerned about dying young?!”

Being shocked and ashamed, she pinched out a circle of bruises on Wang Xifeng's arm.

However, Wang Xifeng couldn't care about crying out in pain at this time. Others were worried about the safety of Sun Shaozong and others, but she was thinking about the death of these people. What consequences will there be?

It's fine for the others but Sun Shaozong is now famous and highly valued by The Emperor. Even Jia Yucun in The Palace had sent a letter at noon, asking the Rongguo Mansion to be on good terms with him.

If he were to die in this Provincial courtyard, Wang Xifeng, the head examiner, is most likely to be the first to bear the consequences!

Thinking of this, Wang Xifeng couldn't help complaining about Sun Shaozong, secretly scolding him for overestimating his strength, plunging himself into such a desperate situation, and even implicating others…

At this time, Ping'er suddenly shouted excitedly, "Young Second Madam, hurry look over! I'm afraid the Second Master Sun is going to... I'm afraid he's going to play "Raising Steel Blocks with a Spear”!"

“Raising Steel Blocks with a Spear?”

Then he will need a spear first, right?

Wang Xifeng looked up suspiciously, only to see Sun Shaozong pedaling and kicking on the hillside. In the blink of an eye, he removed two thick and thin stone sticks from the railing, holding them in his hands sweeping from left to right, and he did not dodge to come up front with the rolling pillars!

Seeing that the front pillar rolled and jumped, Sun Shaozong gave a big shout and used his chest to hit it, holding his two stone sticks and putting them under the location near the left of the pillar, and then suddenly lifted them!

With a whoosh, the wooden pillar rose about ten feet high and tumbled down the cliff on the right!

Sun Shaozong then did the same thing again, taking advantage of the moment when the rolling logs bounced up, he lifted them one by one to the bottom!

Seeing that he is so powerful, everyone in the audience, regardless of distance, is dazzled!

In particular, Liwan, who was originally pale, suddenly rose like a furnace, and her protruding and defined body trembled like a pendulum. If she hadn't been holding Wang Xifeng, she would have collapsed wet in the bow.
