With Shen Fei's order, even a cold-blooded person like Murong Mo couldn't help but reveal a slightly nervous expression.
Although the Cavalry Battalion Guard was also shocked, he did not dare to disobey the current ruler in any way after learning from his previous mistakes.
Soon, the two brothers from the gunpowder battalion arrived at the spirit market. When they received the news that they were going to blow up the bronze statue of Wen Sheng, they were a little hesitant.
Although they were not scholars, they knew the origins of the bronze statue.
The statue was the founder of Wenchang College, Daoist Qiu.
He enjoyed a lofty and supreme status in the history of the Great Zhou literary world.
His bronze statue could be seen in many cultural venues.
He was equivalent to a cultural belief of the Great Zhou scholars.
They could also tell from Shen Fei's actions that their Minister Shen was going to be enemies with all the scholars in the world.
However, as soldiers, their first duty was to obey orders.
The two brothers from the gunpowder battalion followed Shen Fei's orders and quickly buried gunpowder around the bronze statue.
Then, he moved the fuse out of the spirit market.
Just waiting to be ignited.
Once the fire was ignited, not only would the bronze statue be blown up, but the entire Wenchang Spiritual Square might also collapse.
At this moment, some of the Wenchang Academy's teachers and students who had heard the news also came to the entrance of the Wenchang Spiritual Square.
When they saw that Shen Fei was really going to blow up the Wen Sheng bronze statue, everyone began to cry and wail again.
"Thief Shen, you are not human."
"Thief Shen, your actions will definitely incur the wrath of the heavens.”
"Ancestors of the great scholars, we have let you down.“
These teachers and students wished they could rush into the spirit market and die.
However, the soldiers of Black Water Platform surrounded the wooden barrel formation, so they had no chance to enter and die with them.
Shen Fei couldn't be bothered with them.
Staring at the tall bronze statue of the Saint of Literature, he shouted loudly,
"Everyone inside, listen up. I will give you one last chance. If you don't come out in the time it takes for a quarter of an incense stick to burn, I will immediately ignite the explosives.“
After saying that, an incense stick on the candlestick began to light up.
As time passed, the surroundings of the bronze statue remained still.
The only sound that could be heard in the entire Spirit Square was the wails of the students and teachers of Wenchang Academy.
Very quickly, a quarter of the time it takes for an incense stick to burn was up, but the bronze statue still did not react. Shen Fei left the spirit market and ordered the gunpowder to be ignited.
"Rumble!“
After a few loud bangs.
The walls of the entire spirit market collapsed.
By the time the gunpowder smoke dispersed, the interior of the spirit market had already become a scene of ruins.
The memorial tablets that had been used to worship the great scholars of the past had long turned into ashes.
The tall and straight bronze statue of the sage of literature had also been shattered into pieces.
And below the statue, there was indeed an entrance to a secret passage.
Shen Fei immediately went to the entrance of the secret passage to take a look.
Then, he ordered the Black Water Platform's soldiers to light torches and enter the secret passage to search.
Shen Fei followed closely behind.
This secret passage was very long.
After walking for about half an incense stick's time, they arrived at a cave abode.
This cave abode was very spacious.
It was pitch black.
When the soldiers of the Black Water Platform lit all the torches on the high platform.
Only then did everyone realize that on a stone platform in front of the cave abode.
A white-haired old woman was sleeping on the stone platform.
Because he was lying on his back, his face could not be seen clearly.
Shen Fei ordered someone to go to the other side to check. The person who came back told Shen Fei with a trembling voice that the old woman lying on the stone platform was actually the dean of Wenchang Academy.
This news surprised Shen Fei.
Although the dean of Wenchang Academy did not become an official, he had been invited by the late emperor to attend his birthday celebration.
It had only been five years.
At that time, Shen Fei remembered very clearly that the principal of Wenchang College was clearly a middle-aged woman.
How did she become an old woman with a head full of white hair?
Intuition told Shen Fei that there must be something fishy.
Shen Fei shouted loudly," Principal, I had no intention of blowing up this Wen Sheng bronze statue today. It was because I was looking for you everywhere, but I still couldn't find you. There are enemy spies scattered all over the Wenchang Academy. I was really worried that you would be harmed by enemy spies, so I came up with this plan in a moment of desperation."“
After Shen Fei shouted, no one responded for a long time.
A soldier from the Black Water Platform whispered,""When I went to look at her face just now, I couldn't feel her breathing. Is she dead?”
Shen Fei frowned slightly.
At this moment, Murong Mo took the initiative to ask for orders and went to check it out.
Murong Mo replied,"Prime Minister Shen, you are indeed not breathing."”
Shen Fei sighed lightly and walked towards the stone platform.
At the same time, a surge of protective zhenqi was unleashed.
Intuition told Shen Fei that it was not that simple.
However, Shen Fei still pretended to be regretful and came to the front of the stone platform.
Looking at the aged body of the dean of Wenchang College, she sighed softly.
"Sigh, I originally wanted to save the dean, but who knew that the dean had already bid farewell to heaven and earth.“
"I would like to see which enemy country's spy harmed the dean.“
After he finished speaking, Shen Fei reached out his hand and was about to check the hospital director's body.
At the same time, the moment Shen Fei stretched out his hand, Shen Fei was also prepared to make a move.
Just as Shen Fei's fingers were about to reach the dean.
The dean suddenly opened his eyes.
A frosty Sword Qi was spat out from his mouth.
This was an ice talisman jade sword. Although it was small, its body was covered in a huge force.
In a flash, Shen Fei snorted coldly, and a Grandmaster Sword Qi that he had long prepared was released.
The two sword Qi clashed in the air.
A huge wave of energy surged out.
Shen Fei bounced back a few feet, safe and sound.
At this moment, the principal of Wenchang Academy, who had ambushed them first, was knocked off the high platform by Shen Fei's Sword Qi and fell straight onto the ground five feet high.
He spat out blood and was about to die.
