Chapter 141: Blood Light (10)

Chapter 141

Cui Ning listened intently as she walked along the base of the wall, and the subtle sounds everywhere could not escape her ears.

However, the whole courtyard was silent, and even the sound of snow gently hitting the walls with the wind was very clear.

Cui Ning found that these eagle guards were only following her, knowing that they didn't believe that they could find it at all, so she lowered her voice and said solemnly, "I'm six or seven points sure, Zuo Rin will hide here, you are more proficient in searching than me, so you can make the investigation." ”

Searching the secret passage and secret room or something, Cui Ning is really not good at it, back then, the master hid such a big secret passage, and she didn't find it when she copied books there all day.

When the Eagle Guards heard this, in addition to themselves, they left four people to follow Cui Ning to protect her safety, and the rest were all sent out.

Here, Cui Ning can only use her ears and eyes, at first she relied too much on her hearing, and she didn't get anything in a circle, so she had to force herself to observe with her eyes and think with her brain.

Looking at it this way, I really found some clues.

There was a row of footprints in front of one of the rooms, half covered by the wind and snow swept in, and only faint traces could be seen, especially the pair of footprints in front of the steps were very clear, and it looked as if someone had been standing here for a while.

It has been snowing for so long, if there is an interval of half an hour, I am afraid that I will not be able to see the footprints. Moreover, the footprints here are not in and out, it must be because this person has been in for a long time.

Cui Ning stepped on the footprints and stood for a moment, speculating that this was not left by the little servant. This position can be drenched in snow, and if the servant Hou is outside, he will definitely stand by the door. Not only can you hide from the wind and snow, but also hear the movement in the house, so as to prevent you from missing the master's commands. Besides, in this world, how many little servants will have this kind of Yaxing, standing under the eaves and watching the snow in the cold winter?

Cui Ning turned around and approached the door, looking inside through the crack in the door.

The room was pitch black without a trace of light, and after a while of a little habituation of the eyes, I could only vaguely see the general furnishings inside, which looked like a tea room for entertaining guests.

It's even stranger, snowy nights. How can there be any customers? I'm afraid the shops will be closed now!

Cui Ning pointed to the door. Give the Eagle Guards a look.

The team nodded, and waved their hands to let the two of them sneak in first.

The two pushed the door and found that the room was tied from the inside, and suddenly became more vigilant. The method of entering through the door was abandoned. Fly up the load-bearing beam. Silently opened the window and leaned in.

Cui Ning squatted at the door with her hands on the door, her ears close to the door and listened carefully to the sound inside.

After about two breaths, there was the sound of a fight inside.

The Eagle Guards apparently heard it too. Seeing Cui Ning motioning for them to come in to help, he immediately pried open the main door and rushed in.

The room was very dimly lit and full of people, and there were about eight or nine people in total, and it was obvious that there were quite a few people on the other side.

The Eagle Guards didn't dare to underestimate the enemy, so they immediately blew a whistle to summon the others, and then stood by Cui Ning's side to protect her.

The light inside really couldn't tell the enemy from me, and it must have delayed their battle, and Cui Ning even closed the door, leaving only a gap to look inside.

After a while, they rushed over to the two groups of Eagle Guards.

This time there were more people than the other party, and the rest of the people were involved in the fight, Cui Ning had nothing to do, not only opened the door, but also opened the window, so that Eagle Guard could distinguish between friend and foe and fight quickly.

However, what shocked her was that the whistle of the Eagle Guards should be indiscriminately called, why were there only two teams of people rushing over now?

Thinking of this, she felt a little anxious, and seeing that the Eagle Guard quickly subdued the other party, she went over and grabbed a nearby person and asked, "Where is the entrance to the secret room?"

The man spat out blood, looked up sharply, and looked at her with a fierce gaze, as if he wanted to tear her apart and eat her flesh. There was not enough light in the room, but the man's eyes were white and there were few eyeballs, and they looked very abrupt.

Don't say that it is an ordinary person, even if Eagle Guard was suddenly looked at it, he also felt that his hairs stood on end, but Cui Ning didn't realize it, "You don't say it, it's just a matter of time for us, but it's a life-threatening matter for you." ”

As if the man hadn't heard, Cui Ning saw that his mouth was tight, so he said, "Kill them." ”

Eagle Guard was stunned for a moment, suspecting that he had misheard, and looked at her as if he were asking for verification.

"I said kill them. Cui Ning repeated calmly.

The main task of the Eagle Guard is not to assassinate, the general situation is to subdue criminals, and it is inevitable to kill people when performing tasks, but that is a last resort, and now that they have subdued the other party, if they start again, it will be a bit beyond the scope of their duties.

Moreover, they were all amazed that this weak little lady, who seemed to have no experience of the world, could be so disregarding human life.

"The whistle just put out by the team is to only summon these two groups of guards?" Cui Ning looked at the Eagle Guard, "If yes, then when I didn't say what I said, if not, think about why these two teams have only come back now." ”

The Eagle Guards understood what she meant in an instant, and frowned, "Kill." ”

The subdued people showed a little panic, and one of them said, "Tell us where the secret passage is?"

Cui Ning immediately sat on the ground and raised the price, "Now that the price has risen, in addition to the location of the secret passage, I also have to tell how many people like you are in this courtyard!"

The man hesitated.

Where will Cui Ning give them time to consider, "If you don't say anything, you will kill quickly, and you will not come to try the case." ”

"I said, I said. The man panicked, "There are several secret rooms in the courtyard, I don't know the location of the others, the entrance to the secret room in this room is on the wall behind the screen, just push it by hand." We don't know how many people there are in the yard in total, I guess there are at least fifty or so. ”

"Stun him, kill the others. Cui Ning said.

"Your words don't count, you said you were going to let us go!" the man said urgently.

The other subdued people snorted, seemingly disdainful of this person's approach at all.

Eagle Guard also saw it, so he didn't say anything more, and directly wiped the necks of those people with his sword.

Blood splattered everywhere and landed on the ground in front of Cui Ning's feet, the room was filled with a fishy sweet smell, and her eyes were dark, and she quickly moved away from the corpse.

The Eagle Guards were taking a look at her, and they were asked to go to the secret room.

From the location that the man said, he found the secret room, and there was light shining through it.

There were only one table and two chairs in the secret room, and Wei Qian was sitting on one of the chairs, when he raised his eyes and saw a person in an eagle guard suit come in, he smiled slightly, "It's coming very quickly." ”

"Lord Wei!" several people saluted in unison.

One of the eagle guards was about to help him untie the rope, but when he saw him untie the rope himself, he bent down and asked as he untied his leg, "Who brought you here?"

Eagle Guard was stunned for a moment and replied, "It's Cui Zuo." ”

Wei Qian raised the corners of his mouth, got up and said, "Let's go." (To be continued......)
