Chapter 976: Breaking into Lingyun Tower Alone

The night is cold and the three watches. The houses under the deep snow are lined up one after another, one by one dense and orderly, and the flickering lanterns illuminate the long streets, rendering a poetic picture. If you only look at this day and this place, the vastness under the snowflakes and red candles in the sky, it will really make people hallucinate, thinking that behind this door are all happy people. There was a "click" footsteps in the alley in the distance, and the appearance of the soldiers completely disrupted the tranquility of the picture, followed by a ghostly floating figure, when the three big characters of "County Guard's Mansion" came into view, the figure flickered, and disappeared silently.

"Tuk tuk tuk. "Knocking on the door in the middle of the night is particularly frightening.

"What's the matter?" Qingfeng was sitting at the table thinking about something, and after a long knock, he answered, but did not get up to open the door. Xu knew that he didn't want to deal with it, and Digor, who was waiting outside the door, looked very angry, and after staring at the door for a while, he replied in a rough voice: "Your Highness said that if the gentleman is not asleep, he will go over and talk." ”

"I slept. Qingfeng replied calmly, and then the light flickered and went out. Digor was so angry that he wanted to slam the door, but he was afraid of disturbing the others, so he muttered a few curses, and then walked towards the courtyard gate. Ghostwing retracted his breath and crouched on the roof, quietly standing up after the patrolling guards had passed, and chased straight in the direction of Digor's departure.

Qingfeng is here, Bark Chengqi must also be there, Qingfeng is a strategist, if the soldiers and horses are on him, Bark Chengqi will definitely not let go of the defense here, this courtyard has no fixed guards except for the patrol soldiers, so the figure should not be here.

"General. ”

"Hmm. Crossing the corner gate and seeing the man drinking alone, Digor's footsteps couldn't help but pause, and the guard by the door saw him stop, and hurriedly bowed down and asked, "What does the general command?"

Digor frowned and thought for a moment, then said to the guard, "Go and bring His Highness's concubine." ”

"But ......" The guards hesitated, because since he entered the county guard's mansion, the eldest prince always likes to sit in the courtyard and drink, but in addition to General Di, the only one who accompanied him was Mr. Qingfeng, although the two concubines had been carrying them, they basically did not set foot here, and now they rashly called over, will it ......

The guard touched his neck, a chill.

"Not yet. Seeing that he did not move, Digor scolded and carried him into the courtyard gate. Bark Chengqi was leaning on the plum blossoms in the courtyard and looking at the snow scene, listening to his footsteps and not looking back, he only raised the corners of his eyebrows and lowered his head and smiled: "What, I ate a closed door again?"

Digor touched his nose in a curt, and took a few steps to his side: "He has such a stinky temper, if His Highness finds it boring, I have already asked people to call the concubine over." ”

Bark didn't answer him, he drank another glass alone, and then tapped his fingertips to signal him to sit down, and said, "It's been a long time since I've drunk the wine of our hometown, and I've almost forgotten what it tastes like." ”

"If Your Highness wants to drink, I can—"

"Well, it's time to go back. Before Digor's words were finished, Bark Cheng suddenly interrupted him with emotion, poured a glass of wine with him, and then patted him on the shoulder and stood up: "After walking for too long, many things have changed, and when I go back this time, it will be different." Lao Di, you have followed me for so many years, it is time to shine on the lintel and return to your hometown. At the last word, he surged for the impending situation. Although the two-year campaign will end with Jin's victory, it will never end with He's defeat, because even if he Meng Baiyan struggles again, he will not be able to escape the fate of being controlled by others after all.

"Ha, hahahaha, Meng Baiyan, Meng Baiyan, what if you win, in the end, you are just a pawn in the hands of others-" But after this war is over, my fate will be completely different, because the person who hinders me is no longer there!

Xiaoya, don't blame me, only complain that you shouldn't run out of the imperial city, come here, no one can protect you in this war-torn place anymore, because your father and mother doted on you in this place...... Will be worthless!

"Your Highness might as well go and rest. Seeing the concubine enter the door, Digor hurriedly signaled, and the two concubines hurriedly walked to the side of Bark Cheng, one of them hugged him towards the room, Bark Cheng hugged him left and right, stepped on the steps and suddenly turned back and ordered: "Sue Sùbach, stay in the tower obediently, and keep the things for the king!"

"Yes. Digor retreated, and when the people in the courtyard went to the shadow sky, the ghost wings lying in the darkness quietly turned over the roof ridge and rushed towards the direction of Lingyun Tower.

The cold wind shook the copper bells hanging on the eaves, and the "jingle bell" made a crisp sound, and the Lingyun Pagoda under the heavy snow fell into a gloom, there were no patrolling soldiers, no lights, and even the sound of chickens and dogs barking, and the boundary within a radius of several miles was like a dead and silent abyss, which made people frightened. The snowflakes were fluttering, and the sparse woods could no longer hide their tracks, and Ghost Wing stopped and took a deep breath hard.

Right here, the terracotta must be hidden here, even if it is still some distance away, you can smell the unusual smell in the air. There are no guards because they don't want to attract attention, and the quieter they are, the more dangerous they are.

"Whew-" The breath instantly turned into smoke, and the ghost carefully exhaled a few breaths and stretched his body.

Unforeseen dangers tend to make people more vigilant, but the challenge of knowing that it is impossible to do is full of excitement, and Ghost Wing closes his eyes and pauses for a moment, and suddenly rises to the ground and leaps into the sky like a kite with a broken string.

The whirring wind blew through my ears, and the cold snowflakes poured into my mouth and nose, stinging every breath, but the blood in my body was unusually boiling, and the extreme tranquility and the violent heartbeat formed a stark contrast, like a blend of ice and fire, which made people shudder. The skin, which had long been unable to feel the heat, suddenly stretched, and then contracted into tiny millet grains, and the ghost wings in front of the tower suddenly shook and stopped.

The stone beneath his feet made an inaudible sound, and if it were someone else, he might have already stepped away, but Ghost Wing lowered his head after a pause.

He couldn't see the scene under the heavy snow, but he could clearly feel the stone rising, and Ghost Wing knew that he had stepped on the mechanism, he held his breath and sank his breath, and slowly pressed the stone down again.

Needless to say, as soon as his feet leave this stone, he will definitely trigger the hidden mechanism nearby, and there must be more than one mechanism, otherwise Vedic Chengqi will not be relieved to put the terracotta here, and the question now is how to get out of here without touching the mechanism.

Ghost Wing slowly turned his eyes to look around, but no one was near, so he crouched down and gently poked his hand into the snow.

The courtyard in front of this tower is paved with bluestone slabs, each piece is very neat, the mechanism is buried under the stone slabs, as long as you find a way to keep the slate in its current state, and strive for the time to enter the tower.

He knew that he didn't have much time, and the guards would soon find out, so after feeling the gap between the stone slabs, he quickly pulled out the short dagger from his waist and inserted it with the right strength. The slate "snapped", even if it was very slight, but it still made Ghost Wing break out in a cold sweat, he restrained his breath very carefully let go of his hand, slowly and slowly retracted, until he was sure that the slate did not rise again, and then stood up with a long sigh of relief.

There is still some distance from the tower gate, and it seems that he can't pass through the ground. There are so many floors in this tower, which layer will Vedic put the diagram on?

There was a sound of beating at the city gate in the distance, and Ghost Wing looked up at the night sky, and then one of them jumped up and headed towards the eaves of the second floor.

Since there is no way to be sure, you can only search up layer by layer. Seeing that the eaves of the tower were in front of him, the ghost wing breathed out and was about to fall, but suddenly felt a pain in his cheeks, he knew that something was wrong, and he twisted his body in an instant with the electric flint, and fell to the ground with a buzzing sound of silk cracking.
