Chapter 357: Night Visit to the King's Tomb (1st Update)
At dusk, everyone arrived at the foot of Zichen Mountain, and the royal road was separated here, one still went north, and the other was turned to Zichen Mountain, and the waterway when he returned to Baling in the morning and evening, and then he walked this road again and his heart was heavy, and when he arrived at the foot of the verdant Zichen Mountain, the heavy depression was stronger, and he glanced at a green hill in the distance, and his brows wrinkled slightly. "Music Text"
"From the front is the royal road dedicated to the mountain, and then there is a mountain gate of the royal tomb two miles away, and when you enter, you will enter the boundary of the royal tomb, we have to wait until it gets dark to touch in from another path, and from now on you can't take the avenue, our people are waiting in a col in front, what does the master mean?"
"Well, it's in front of the col round, hurry up. ”
The crow replied, nodded immediately, so the group left the main road and went to the forest under the leadership of the crow, the pine and cypress looked very dense and deep from the outside, but it was okay to walk in, the interval between the trees was quite large, and the horses could also ride, and walked along the path in the forest that was not obvious for half an hour, and the flat woodland became a gentle slope.
In this way, it can be regarded as truly at the foot of the mountain-
"Master, Fauber is waiting in front. ”
The ink crow replied lightly, and when he saw that he nodded his head, he closed his hand and blew a whistle on his lips.
Soon, there was a similar whistle not far ahead, and the ink crow dropped his horsewhip, and walked a few steps forward along a depression on the gentle slope, and followed in the morning and evening, and after a while, he saw seven or eight people standing in the col not far away.
They didn't speak, but they looked very respectful, and they rode their horses at this time, and raised their hands, "Excuse me, you have worked hard for the past few days, how long can you go up the mountain?"
Standing at the front of these seven or eight people was an old man in his forties, who was the Fu Bo in the mouth of the ink crow, and Fu Bo turned around to take a look, and it was getting late at this moment, and he could see a light on somewhere on this hill from a distance.
"There is still half an hour to go up the mountain. ”
Chaoxi turned over and dismounted, "Okay, then everyone rest here for half an hour, Mo Crow, take care of everyone's horses." ”
This is a mountain col, surrounded by tall pines and cypresses, and further forward is the mountain, and they are all walking paths, there is no way to ride a horse, Mo Crow took two guards to lead everyone's horses to the side of the forest to tie up, and left two people to watch, then returned to Chaoxi and Shang Jue, after Fu Lan dismounted, he also looked around this mountain col, and then laughed, "This mountain col is very unusual, you can see the Shinto on the mountain from a distance, and even the statue and archway can be seen." ”
Fu Bo stepped forward, "Childe has good eyesight, this place is close to Shinto, and it is most convenient to walk from here when we go down the mountain later, and the path that we will go up the mountain later is not far from here." ”
Fu Lan looked Fu Bo up and down a few times, it was dark at this time, Fu Lan couldn't see it very clearly, but Fu Bo's eyes were very bright, compared to young people, Fu Lan nodded secretly in his heart, and in a blink of an eye, Chao Xi and Shang Jue stood under a pine tree that two people hugged and didn't know what they were saying.
"The tomb of the King of Shu has not yet been closed, it is very easy for us to get in, and there are not too many Qimen organs inside, just don't alarm the guards outside. Shang Jue Wen Yan explained, and nodded day and night, "That's good, when the time comes, Fu Bo will take someone to meet outside, they have been here for a few days, and they are most familiar with the situation." ”
Shang Jue curled his lips and sighed again, "It seems that you can handle this without me." ”
Raising his eyebrows day and night, he somehow always felt a little sad when Shang Jue said this, and he couldn't allow her to ask carefully, and someone over there came to report something to Fu Bo, and Fu Bo came over again and said, "Master, we can go, there are many people coming, and it may be delayed for a longer time at that time." ”
Fu Bo didn't expect Shang Jue to come, although he didn't introduce it specifically every day, but he knew Shang Jue's identity.
Hearing this, Chaoxi didn't want to rub it off, nodded and the group went on the road.
Fu Bo is familiar with the road in front of the road, a group of people in the forest around for a while and then began to climb the mountain, the mountain is not steep, but because it is a small road is not easy to walk, only Chaoxi and Shen'er are girls in a line, but the footsteps of the two are not slow, the night deepens little by little, in order not to alarm the defenders on the mountain, their path is much farther than the way of God, so it is already two hours later when they arrive near the Fengqin Mausoleum on the mountain.
The night is deep, from their direction, you can just see the Que Tower and the Upper Palace in the distance, here is halfway up the mountainside, the majestic palace is not wide, but it is extremely gorgeous and noble, at this time there are a few ghost lights outside the upper palace, and you can vaguely see a line of guards in armor patrolling back and forth, Fu Bo said in a low voice, " Except for the annual festival when officials come to inspect this place, there are almost no people at other times, so these guards on duty have long been slack, usually after two quarters of an hour they will take shifts, this class of guards will leave early, the next class of guards will delay for a while, and then there will be a gap. ”
Saying that, Fu Bo took out a map, "This is the layout of the upper palace, we have to go through the palace in front, and then go to the entrance of the mausoleum in the back, the key is here." Saying that, Fu Bo glanced at the four or five people behind Fu Lan, "The door of the mausoleum is not sealed, but the movement of the main gate is too big, we can only take the side door, here, this mausoleum is not completely completed, there are still many places inside that need to be arranged and repaired, usually craftsmen enter from here, and now there is only a stone door locked here." ”
Fu Lan nodded knowingly, "No problem, we all know the layout from the stone gate all the way in." ”
Fu Bo smiled and accepted the picture in his hand, "Since this is the case, please leave it to Gongzi and all the strong men." ”
Fu Lan waved his hand, "It's easy to say." Glancing at Shang Jue again, "I want to thank this one, he is the one who wants to marry your master." ”
Fu Bo hurriedly bowed respectfully to Shang Jue, "The villain greets His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
Fu Lan raised his eyebrows, it turned out that he knew Shang Jue's identity, the corners of Shang Jue's lips pulled up, "The old man doesn't have to be polite, there are all of you, it's not necessary for me to help, but I'm worried about your master's coming to take a look." ”
Fu Bo smiled and answered, glanced at Shang Jue, pouted and didn't say anything.
After waiting for a while, I saw that the guards guarding the outermost part began to withdraw to the temporary camp on the side of the upper palace in twos and threes, this royal tomb is not allowed to build other dormitory houses, so these defenders can only live in very simple houses to be demolished in the future, where there are dozens of zhang away from the upper palace, this back and forth, there is a huge time difference.
"Crow, I'll take it over to you inside, I'll answer it outside. Fauber gave an explanation, and handed the prepared fire fold and other things to the ink crow, who held it in his hand, and Fauber instructed, "Keep the master safe." ”
Mo Crow glanced at Shang Jue, "Understood." After speaking, he was the first to go towards the upper palace tower.
Mo Crow walked in the front to lead the way, Fu Lan followed the second one, at this time Fu Lan did not have the lazy look on weekdays, rare to give people a little solemn and sharp, provoked the day and night to look at it twice, Fu Lan's skills and Mo Crow are as agile, the group quickly arrived at the front of the Que Tower, taking advantage of this time to pass through the courtyard into the upper palace, and along the wall of the upper palace on a path of flowers and trees to sweep straight back, although there is no defender, but the attendants on duty, but at this point, the attendants are also dozing, the lanterns enshrined in the palace are about to go out, their group, except for the day and night weaker others are such mastersBefore they all arrived at the stone gate, the guards who changed duty in the second round did not appear.
"We only have a quarter of an hour. Mo Crow turned around and looked at Fu Landao.
Fu Lan waved his hand, and the four people who came with him immediately stepped forward, the four of them were dressed in black shorts, which was very suitable for night walking, and at this moment they took out a set of tools from the small baggage behind them like a trick, it was a solid wood strip the size of a paperweight, and then somehow, the wooden strip in the hands of one of them turned into a semi-circular crossbow in a moment, and another person took out a compass-like thing, and closed the crossbow together, and the two of them pressed the set of tools on the stone door very quickly and methodically, The pointer in the middle of the "compass" turned, and at the same time, the other two began to slowly turn the big handle on the stone door, everyone held their breath in front of the door, and the quiet needle drop around could be heard......
