Chapter 121: Mission Progress, a Quarter
It's a cloudy day, and when night comes, even though there are many lanterns hanging in the villa, it still gives people a gloomy and oppressive feeling, and the sound of the wind blowing the leaves is a little eerie. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The atmosphere of the whole villa is quiet, only a few insect chirpings are occasionally heard, like an old temple in the deep mountains, without a trace of popularity.
Xiahou was gently pushing open the door and quietly walked out, the night was sinking like water, and the dark clouds covered the sky, it was a good time to sneak in unconsciously, not to be missed.
With a slight jump, he had already quietly jumped onto the roof, and as soon as he got on the roof, Xiahou was immediately performing the technique of lifting his body lightly, and his body gently stopped on the roof without making a sound.
Looking down from the roof, the field of vision is really a lot wider, plus Xiahou Zheng's eyesight is amazing, just a glance, I found that the guard strength of Maple Leaf Villa at this time is actually more than twice as much as during the day, but it is said that there is a sentry in five steps, a post in ten steps, and the defense is very strict.
"Could it be that Hua Feihu was aware of my purpose, but there was no evidence, so he secretly strengthened the security force to prevent me from taking the thousand-year-old snow lotus?"
It's not right, when they came, they were extremely well guarded, and only Emperor Shakti and Luo Xian knew about my coming to Maple Leaf Villa, and even the people and horses sent to him by Emperor Shakti didn't bring it themselves, so they definitely wouldn't have noticed it in advance.
Perhaps, it is not me who they are wary, but someone else!" Xia Houzheng thought with a flash of his eyes.
No matter how much he has, they can't find me anyway, so it doesn't matter if I'm on guard or not.
Xiahou Zheng is still confident in this, as long as he doesn't make a huge noise, or appears directly in front of those people, even Hua Feihu can't find himself.
Besides, even if it is discovered, it is a big deal to rob it, it can't be robbed, the task fails, no matter how big it is, it is not that you have to complete it.
Passing over a few houses, Xiahou Zheng entered an ancient courtyard in the depths of the villa, because this place was a more important place for the Hua family, so Hua Siqi did not take Xiahou Zheng close during the day.
It was with this that Xiahou Zheng judged where the more important places of the Hua family were, and according to Tianmen's intelligence, Snow Lotus was hidden in a secret room in the room of the more important family members of the Hua family.
Xiahou Zheng estimated that the biggest possibility of them was the room of Hua Feihu, the owner of Maple Leaf Villa, or the old owner, followed by the room of Hua Yuming, the owner of the young village, and finally Hua Siqi's room.
It has been less than two years since the old owner of Hua Lao Zhuang died, and the room has been empty, which is the first room that Xiahou is looking for.
Xiahou was circling around and found that Hua Feihu's room was in the east of the villa, Hua Yuming's room was in the south of the villa, Hua Siqi's room was in the north, and the old master's room was in the west.
The old owner's room was empty, which was the most convenient to explore, and Xiahou was sneaking in directly, taking out a headlight and putting it on, and began to check the secret door of the mechanism.
As soon as the flashlight was turned on, Xiahou Zheng found that the flashlight was too bright, and as long as a patrolling guard walked by, he would be 100% aware of it.
In order to avoid anyone noticing, Xiahou Zheng still chose to turn off the flashlight, took out his wand, and released a faint light, the light was so faint that it could barely illuminate a distance of twenty centimeters.
This light hit the window, and it was already invisible, but Xiahou Zheng could see the furnishings in front of him clearly with this faint light.
Xiahou Zheng shook his head, the light of the wand is easy to control, but it is a little bad, it needs to continuously provide spiritual power, and now he can only check things with one hand.
Lamps, books, vases, picture scrolls, after Xiahou Zheng checked them one by one, he found that there were no suspicious points, they were all ordinary objects, and there were no traces of any secret room.
There was no problem with these things that could easily be set as switches, and Xia Hou was setting his sights on those large objects, such as bookshelves and the like.
After inspecting large objects such as bookshelves, Xiahou Zheng still didn't find any mechanisms, so he set his eyes on those things that were not noticed, such as some raised decorations and the like.
Every time Xiahou is checking something, and putting it back in place, he completely checks the things in the whole room, and more than two hours have passed, Xiahou is feeling that his whole person has a sore back, but there is still no gain.
After searching one room, there are three more.
Xiahou came in the middle of the night, and it was already about five o'clock in the morning, he beat his back to relieve his fatigue, Xiahou was yawning, lifting his spirits, and quickly slipped back to his room.
Back in the room, Xiahou Zheng was not in the mood to cultivate, so he fell asleep directly, and due to the exhaustion of his body, Xiahou Zheng quickly fell asleep.
At the end of the day, Xiahou was finally awakened by a knock on the door, and a carp sat up.
"Prince Xiahou?"
Outside the door was Hua Siqi's voice, and Xiahou hurriedly responded, "Oh, Miss Siqi, just get up in the next place, it's okay right away, it's good right away." ”
Xia Hou took three minutes to hurriedly tidy up his clothes, tie his hair in a bun, and then opened the door, "I'm really ashamed to be sleepy for a while, but it's already three poles in the day." ”
Hua Siqi stood in front of the door, followed by several maids, holding washbasins in their hands and food boxes.
"Poof!" Seeing Xiahou Zheng's appearance, Hua Siqi couldn't help laughing, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to laugh at the son, I just ...... It's just that...... Poof!"
Xiahou was hurriedly packing up, his clothes were okay, but his hair was ugly, he hurriedly tied it up, and he didn't have time to take a look at it, but he felt better, but in fact, it was like a pile of weeds, growing indiscriminately.
Hua Siqi couldn't help the smile in her heart for a while, and she couldn't find a suitable excuse, so she scolded the maid behind her: "Why don't you hurry up and help your son wash?"
Several maids listened to Hua Siqi's words, and immediately rushed into the house and began to help Xiahou Zheng dress up.
Hua Siqi watched from the side, and felt that Xiahou Zheng was not as vicious as rumored in the rivers and lakes, but was a little approachable and easy to get along with.
My brother asked me to go shopping and talk with him, but I don't know what I was going to do, but I wanted to win him over? Judging from the rumors, this person is actually very good.
Watching the maid fiddling with Xiahou Zheng, Hua Siqi remembered that last night, Hua Yuming specially ran over and told her to have a good relationship with Xiahou Zheng, and to take him to see more inside and outside the villa when she had time, and couldn't help but look at Xiahou Zheng a few more times.
The maid's hands and feet were very nimble, and soon Xiahouzheng's messy hair was combed by them, and he returned to the appearance of a handsome son.
"Prince Xiahou, the maid said that I didn't wait for you to get up**, and the food sent was cold, so I specially asked the kitchen to make a new one, you can eat a little. Hua Siqi personally opened the food box brought by the maid, took out a plate of dishes, and smiled at Xiahou Zheng.
Brother's task, I will definitely complete it, so that Xiahou Zheng has a good impression of our villa, so that his brother's plan can go smoothly, Hua Siqi secretly cheered himself up.
"Thank you, girl, I'm ashamed to be so troublesome to the girl for a while. Xiahou said embarrassedly.
"Eat quickly, after eating, I'll take you around, the weather is good today, and the mountains are more beautiful than usual." Hua Siqi said.
"Then thank you, girl. Xiahou was picking up chopsticks and starting to eat brunch.
