Chapter Ninety-Six: To Lift or Not to Lift?
PS: PS: Thank you for the monthly pass of "Miss You and Miss You Again"! Thank you for the two monthly passes of "Night Cat Ral"! Thank you for the two monthly passes of "Phoenix & Dance"!
To be honest, as far as Ji Xiaoyan's self-feeling is concerned, the beams of this Panchi City Lord Palace's palace are actually quite easy to climb. Think about it, there are so many guards of the city lord's mansion of their own house below, there are wooden window lattices in the middle that can be grasped, and there is a wooden structure on top, how can it be that as long as the hands can climb up, and the guards below help push it, it is definitely very easy to climb up! She couldn't understand what Mr. Qing Gong was worried about about such an easy thing!
Thinking about the places that were more difficult to climb than this when she was a child, she and her friends had climbed it, and she didn't see anything about it!!Thinking of this, Ji Xiaoyan rolled up her sleeves, took a deep breath, and with the help of several guards from the City Lord's Mansion, she jumped and grabbed the wooden bar on the window in an instant, and then after standing still, she began to reach out to the wooden pillar of the beam.......
It's just that this doesn't look far away, and after reaching out at this moment, Ji Xiaoyan found that it seemed to be farther away than he imagined
"Lord of the Castle... If it doesn't work, let's let the guards climb up first, and then pull us......" Manager Qing Gong frowned, with a worried face, looked up at Ji Xiaoyan and whispered: "You better come down....... if you really fall, it will hurt." ”
"I'm not a child, if I fall, I will fall!" Ji Xiaoyan said to Chief Qing Gong with some unhappiness, while trying to reach out and grab it above his head. "Manager Qinggong, are you still afraid that I will accidentally fall down and cry my nose? You can rest assured, I am not so afraid of pain!"
"City Lord, I didn't mean that...... Chief Qing Gong looked helpless, looked up at Ji Xiaoyan, and sighed silently in his heart. He just felt that with Ji Xiaoyan's height and short hands, he was afraid that he really wouldn't be able to catch the beams of the house! Now he will go down the steps he gave and let the guards of the City Lord's Mansion go up, at least the City Lord of her family still has some face, right? But it's too embarrassing for the lord of the castle!!That's not good
"Lord of the Castle. You can come down!" Governor Qing Gong continued to say bitterly: "Let the guards go! If you force it like this, it will be a waste of time.......
When Ji Xiaoyan heard this, she instantly wanted to glare at Chief Qing Gong fiercely! Did you wash her like this? Hmph, she didn't believe it. Such a high palace beam. She had so many guards for help. Thinking of this, Ji Xiaoyan immediately took a deep breath and said to Chief Qing Gong with a stubborn expression: "Chief Qing Gong." Don't talk about it! I'm really going to climb up today for you to see...... You guys, lift me up a little more......."
Manager Qing Gong looked at Ji Xiaoyan with a distressed expression, and finally could only sigh. He knew that his city lord had such a temper, and he had stopped her when she had made up her mind to climb the wall!! Now the only thing he could do was to stay under the eaves and pray that his city lord would not fall
However, in the current reality, the result is predestined long ago, and it is not something that can be improved by prayer.
Therefore, after a few seconds, Chief Qing Gong saw his own city lord Ji Xiaoyan and the girl jumped with a breath, ready to jump up and grab a section of the roof beam, but after not grabbing it, she instantly fell on the bodies of several city lord's palace guards, and then pressed the city lord's palace guards together, and all of them fell to the ground, screaming.
"Hurry up, hurry up....... go quickly!" Manager Qing Gong looked nervous, and hurriedly stepped to Ji Xiaoyan's side in a few steps, no matter how badly they fell and how painful the expression on their faces was, he directly pulled Ji Xiaoyan up, and then asked the remaining City Lord's Mansion guards around him to quickly pull one or two places one by one, and quickly ran to the corner next to them.
A few seconds later, a large group of Panchi City NPC guards hurried over, standing in the position where Ji Xiaoyan had just climbed like arhats, and after a while of looking and muttering, they looked around, and finally turned around slowly under the command of the guard leader
"Whew, it's so dangerous!!" Ji Xiaoyan was greatly relieved while rubbing the painful part of his body, and then turned his head to look at Manager Qing Gong with a smile, and said with a look of praise: "It's still Manager Qing Gong, your reaction is bigger! If we take another step or two, we will definitely be caught by the guards of Panchi City! Hahaha, it's okay, it's okay!"
When Chief Qing Gong heard this, he immediately glared at Ji Xiaoyan, and then said: "City Lord, is it time to laugh? Look at the situation just now, I have told you many times, tell you not to climb the wall, don't go, don't go, but look at it, not only did you climb by yourself, but you finally fell down! Besides, didn't you say okay, you won't cry out in pain if you fall? That sound just now was what you called, otherwise it would definitely not attract the guards......
"Hehe, didn't you hold back!" Ji Xiaoyan said to Chief Qing Gong with a sneer, then looked at the guards in his own city lord's mansion standing behind him, and continued: "I still have to thank you, otherwise I would have fallen badly." ”
The guards of the City Lord's Mansion quietly glanced at Chief Qing Gong, smiled secretly at Ji Xiaoyan, and then quickly lowered their heads.
"City Lord, you are not small!!" Chief Qing Gong looked at Ji Xiaoyan with a reproachful face, and when he saw her smiling at him, he had to roll his eyes helplessly, and then sighed and asked, "Then Lord City Lord, do we want to continue now?"
"That's natural!" Ji Xiaoyan took it for granted, and said to Manager Qing Gong: "I fell this time, if I don't climb, then I didn't fall in vain?" Speaking of this, Ji Xiaoyan looked at Manager Qing Gong and immediately glared at him, and quickly said: "Okay, okay, Manager Qing Gong, I listen to you, don't worry, I will listen to you this time." Let them go, it's always going to work, right?"
Chief Qing Gong glanced at Ji Xiaoyan and pointed at several tall city lord's palace guards, and took a deep breath. He looked at her seriously and asked, "Really, Lord Castle, what you said is true?" Just let them go, and then you and I will stand aside and watch and wait for them to pull us up?"
"Really, absolutely true!" Ji Xiaoyan also looked serious, and said to the head of Qinggong: "You're right, I'm also the city lord of Qingcheng, it doesn't matter if I make a fool of myself in front of you! Everyone is their own person, and if you see it, forget it! But if I go again, I still fall down and attract the guards of Panchi City." I was seen falling on my back. That's a shame! Isn't it? To paraphrase what Qing Gong is in charge of, I'll lose the face of the entire Qingcheng, right? So, it's better for us to be conservative....... just let them go! Pull us up in a moment!"
Chief Qing Gong heard this. stared at Ji Xiaoyan seriously. Seeing her expression so affirmative. Only then couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief in my heart! It seems that my own city lord is still very teachable!
It's just that Ji Xiaoyan's next sentence made Chief Manager Qing Gong a little uneasy: "Let's go back to the City Lord's Mansion when we go back, and then we can find a few more places like this to practice well...... When I was a child, I couldn't climb trees be abandoned just because I was old...... Look at how high this is. I actually fell!!It's such a shame...... Let's go back to the City Lord's Mansion and practice tacit understanding...... Well, I think we're going to fail this time, and most of it has something to do with tacit understanding......."
"Yes, Lord City Lord!" the guards of the City Lord's Mansion bowed their heads and whispered, and then looked at Chief Qing Gong and gave them a roll of the eye.
"Okay, okay, then you hurry up and prepare, let's continue to ......" Ji Xiaoyan directly ignored the eyes of Chief Qinggong, and said to the guards of the City Lord's Mansion: "While those guards of Panchi City are not suspicious for a while, let's quickly find a way to climb to the roof first......."
"Yes!" Several city lord's palace guards nodded hurriedly, looked in the direction of the head of Qing Gong, and immediately ran out of the corner, and after observing several aspects, they immediately ran under the eaves, and then looked at each other a few times, and then reached out and began to climb up.
"Sure enough, it's still a problem with my short hands!" Ji Xiaoyan honestly stood beside Chief Qing Gong, looking at the movements of those City Lord's Mansion guards, and couldn't help but sigh: "Tsk, it seems that we still have a lot of talents in Qingcheng! Look at their movements and speed, it feels like they are simply professional!!"
"City Lord......." Chief Manager Qing Gong shouted at Ji Xiaoyan with a black line, and when he saw her looking at him in confusion, he finally sighed and stopped talking. He really sometimes thinks that his own city lord is very annoying! This is a professional person who climbs walls? Doesn't that mean that they have been doing this kind of stealing and touching dogs for a long time? Wouldn't his own city lord feel that if he said this, if he was heard in the future, he would think that they were not decent to clear the city?
"City Lord...... Several guards of the City Lord's Mansion saw that the guards who were climbing had all climbed onto the roof beams and stood still, and hurriedly said to Ji Xiaoyan and Qing Gong, "Lord Chief, let's go up now.......
"Well, well, hurry up, so as not to turn around and be caught by others, how embarrassing!" Ji Xiaoyan nodded hurriedly, stepped under the eaves in three steps and two steps, and then looked up at the guards above his head, and then asked the guards who followed behind him, "How do you get on?" or do you hold me?"
"Yes, Lord City Lord!" Several guards hurriedly stood by the wall with their horses, leaning against the wall and saying to Ji Xiaoyan: "Lord City Lord, come on! After you go up in a while, we will go up again, and then the Lord Steward will come up again.......
"Okay!Lord City Lord, be careful! You can't fall again this time.......!"
"Got it, got it!" Ji Xiaoyan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "This time someone is pulling it above, how can I fall down again, I'm not so stupid!" After speaking, Ji Xiaoyan looked excited and directly climbed a few guards of the City Lord's Mansion, climbed up against the wall, and then grabbed the hands of the two City Lord's Mansion guards who were already standing on the beams of the house, and was lifted by the guards below, and finally climbed up without danger
It's just that the posture isn't very elegant!
As for the head of Qing Gong, after the two guards of the City Lord's Mansion climbed onto the beam, the people behind him also pulled him up to the roof beam, and then waited until all the guards climbed onto the beam of the palace of the City Lord, Ji Xiaoyan spoke, and continued to climb to the roof with a large number of City Lord's Mansion guards. Fortunately, with the experience of falling for the first time, Ji Xiaoyan did not recklessly, and was pulled by the guards of the City Lord's Mansion all the way, and finally climbed onto the roof of the palace.
"It's finally here!" Ji Xiaoyan stood on the roof of the palace, took a deep breath, and said with a smile: "Chief Qinggong, is it appropriate for us to go over there next?"
The place where they were staying at the moment was nothing but the sky and the ground, but the glazed tiles of the entire roof. Yu Mo is in the position of the palace, they have no way to estimate, if there is no direction, one location at a time, let alone when to find it, if it is a careless, lift the tile and look at the city lord, if it is discovered, how embarrassing it is, right?
When Chief Qing Gong heard Ji Xiaoyan's words, he thought about it and understood her concerns, they didn't seem to be popular in Panchi City, not to mention that they were begging someone to be the city lord. If they were caught climbing people's roofs and lifting people's tiles, the consequences would be if they were caught by the city lord
Chief Qing Gong instantly felt that they had climbed onto the roof of the palace, as if they were indeed wrong
"Manager Qing Gong, where are we going?" Ji Xiaoyan looked at Manager Qing Gong and seemed to be distracted, and hurriedly shouted at him again.
"This ....... City Lord, none of us have ever entered the inner part of this palace, and none of us know what the layout inside looks like....... "Chief Qing Gong looked worried, stared at Ji Xiaoyan and thought about it, and then continued: "The layout of each palace in front of the palace may be the same, but the rest of the layout is built according to the hobby of the palace owner...... If we have to find it, then we can only turn it over little by little, and if we are lucky, we may be able to find the ink, and by the way, we can also draw the pattern of the entire palace......" After a pause, the head of Qing Gong sighed and said: "If this is bad luck...... Lord of the City, if we are discovered as soon as we lift the tile, then the situation will be embarrassing, not to mention, it will directly anger the City Lord and the Night City Lord...... Climbing the roof of the palace of the lord of the city is not a glorious thing after all, you see our ......, "Should we continue, or be honest and silently climb back to the ground......?"
