Chapter 316: Sudden Invitation

The next morning, they knew it was morning when they heard the sound of the gong. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 When they had finished washing, General Wei had already sent for breakfastβ€”a bowl of porridge with preserved eggs and meat and spicy noodles for each person, plus two boiled quail eggs.

After breakfast, the three of them heard the deafening sound of military drills outside, so they followed the sound out of the stone house and gathered together outside the house.

Looking far away at the western corner, you can faintly see the army rehearsing the formation, and the standard-bearer waving the flag on the exercise platform to direct the team below to move left and right.

Li Tianqi and the others discussed for a while, and planned to investigate in different directions, and then come back to determine where they were forbidden to go, and then act after the plan was properly planned, so they decided to go separately, but they deliberately did not hide their whereabouts, so that those who were secretly watching could report to their generals.

As expected, although General Wei Mingli agreed to investigate casually, he arranged for some other people to keep an eye on them.

Li Tianqi was already very shrewd, and soon noticed that someone was following him from a distance, and when he deliberately looked back, he found that the person pretended to be a passing soldier and turned behind a fence.

Zhou Ruolin and Qing'er have extraordinary skills, so they naturally noticed the people following behind them more easily, but they pretended to be very curious, looking here, looking there, and occasionally stopping to see the small insects and ants crawling on the ground.

The southwest barracks occupy a large area, and the roads between them are mostly rugged and winding, because they are built according to the topography of the interior, like a huge anthill.

The southwest camp was divided into two large camps, east and west, the eastern area was under the command of General Wei, and the western area was managed by the adjutant general, and about 6,000 people were stationed here.

The camp is built according to the barracks, granaries, firewood houses, cells, armories, etc., and there are all kinds of things, and they are arranged in an orderly manner, which can show that the military discipline here is very strict. They had looked at all these places, but unfortunately they found nothing suspicious.

Li Tianqi and others sometimes used excuses to chat with some sergeants stationed in the same place, but they kept silent about everything except for saying their surnames, hometowns, or why they joined the army. Although Li Tianqi asked them extremely vaguely, it seemed that it was just a delusion to find out the secrets of the Hydra from the mouths of these sergeants.

It wasn't until they felt hungry and returned to the stone house that they realized that it was already afternoon, and that the table was full of food, and they ate as they pleased, but they were all pensive looking for the forbidden area.

According to Li Tianqi's speculation, that place must be extremely secretive, so he swaggered around looking for it, but it turned out that he couldn't find it.

Zhou Ruolin and Qing'er both put forward their own opinions, they wanted to sneak into General Wei's house in the middle of the night to see if there was a construction layout plan here, this place is ingenious, if there is such a secret room, it will definitely be marked in the construction layout map.

Li Tianqi thought for a while and then rejected such an idea, because if it didn't work out, it would be wasted, and the idea of himself and others to probe the nine-headed insect would not be realized.

He fiddled with the bamboo chopsticks, thinking of all kinds of ways to find the secret place without letting the people here find out, so what method should he use?

Finally, he came up with a solution, and that was to start with the meal. Those who guard the Secret Chamber, after all, are also flesh and blood, and they will also be hungry. In this way, as long as they pay attention to the actions of the room, see where they are cooking, and deliver food, over time, they can deduce the location of the secret room without the other party easily noticing.

As soon as this idea was proposed, Zhou Ruolin and Qing'er didn't feel good, since they would deal with the cook and the man for three meals a day, and it was a well-known truth that everyone could reconcile, there were many excuses to stay in the kitchen.

It may take some effort, but it's a good idea, and it's better than just alerting the bosses here.

So Li Tianqi and others began to use excuses these days to say that the food was not delicious, and the cooks couldn't help but talk about it, and gradually analyzed that there was a station where the food should not be fishy, and even the oil used for cooking was not allowed to use lard, but sesame oil. This strange thing immediately attracted the attention of Li Tianqi and others. Not only that, but these vegetarian dishes will also be delivered in the middle of the night, which is still a situation that Li Tianqi guessed after checking the inventory. That means that the sergeants who keep vigil in the secret room live in it even if they change day and night.

The soldiers who had been following them all the time, these days they saw that they were just wandering around, not investigating crimes, and from time to time picking and choosing their meals, gradually became paralyzed, and did not say any valuable information when reporting to their immediate superiors.

When General Wei and Leng Fang heard these trivial matters, they were secretly happy in their hearts. Since the food is not delicious, I believe that these people will leave soon, so they can rest assured, occasionally General Wei will come to visit, ask about the recent living situation, one day saw Li Tianqi and others at a loss, all sighed at the appearance of food discomfort, in fact, I felt more happy, but in front of me angrily scolded the cook, saying that it was to be rectified, until Li Tianqi and others interceded for those cooks.

By secretly monitoring the people who delivered the food, they found out that the secret was in a quiet place, which was located between the east and west camps, although they had passed by here many times, they always saw two patrols cruising here, just like the patrols in other places, and they did not go to their hearts, but this group of people not only played a good role in covering up, but also secretly guarded the secret place.

At this time, it was the fifth day of their arrival in this camp, and although General Wei was already convinced of their identity, there should be no change in the short term, but since the location had been discovered, it was better to investigate the matter of the hydra sooner rather than later.

They decided to do it late this night, taking advantage of the paralysis of the soldiers who were following them, and used the ecstasy incense on Qing'er's body to secretly charm them, causing them to be really sleepy and suddenly fall asleep, so that these soldiers would not be silent even if they suddenly woke up.

And when they took advantage of the fact that these tails were thrown off, Li Tianqi and the others disguised themselves as them, entered the secret room to cast ecstasy incense, subdued the defenders inside, and then waited for the opportunity to find the nine-headed insect placed here.

After dinner, they waited quietly in the house for the lights to go out. When the lights went out, Qing'er quietly slipped out of the room, and then secretly charmed those who followed, and then returned to inform Li Tianqi and Zhou Ruolin to come out after these things were completed.

But at this time, there was the sound of broken steps running outside Li Tianqi's door, and it seemed that there were a few people coming. Zhou Ruolin and Qing'er couldn't help jumping up and leaning behind their doors, wanting to hear what was going on.

After a while, there was a knock on Li Tianqi's door.

A soldier outside the house panted and said, "Lord Li! Is Master Lee here? ”

"What's the matter?" Li Tianqi opened the door and looked at the people who came, standing in front of him were three sergeants with swords at their waists, not soldiers with spears, it seemed that they should be General Wei's entourage.

The soldier who spoke earlier arched his hand and said, "Lord Li, General Wei sent a small one to invite Lord Li to move to the council hall to speak." I don't know if adults can ......."

"Did General Wei say anything about it?" Li Tianqi asked.

The soldier shook his head and said, "I didn't mention this, presumably the matter is urgent, so I don't have time to say more, as long as Master Li goes, I will know the details." ”

If you leave at this time, should you continue the plan? What if General Wei stayed by his side and talked for a long time? Or do you want to put the plan aside and put it off until tomorrow?

Since he was invited to the council chamber, it seems that it should not be a private matter. But how things are, we still have to go and see before deciding.

Oh, so why not take advantage of that to implement the plan? I went to attract General Wei's attention, presumably his subordinates would not have thought that Zhou Ruolin and Qing'er would leave me to implement the plan, so it would be more calm. As soon as we find out that the hydra is indeed here, we will leave immediately.

Thinking of this, Li Tianqi had already made up his mind. At this time, Zhou Ruolin and Qing'er actually pushed open the door at the same time and walked over.

Apparently they have taken this into account as well.

Li Tianqi said with a smile: "General Wei has something to do with me, you stay here, if I don't come back too late, you ......." He glanced at them.

Zhou Ruolin asked, "Or, another decision?" ”

Li Tianqi shook his head and said, "Without further ado, listen to me." General Wei came to me, it should have been something unexpected. If it goes well, I will come back early, and if there is any delay, you ......"

Zhou Ruolin and Qing'er thought about it and nodded.

The soldier said, "Master Li, General Wei is still waiting for a small turn, if it is convenient for you, please come with us quickly." ”

Zhou Ruolin was a little unhappy and said: "What are you urging?" Although General Wei is the head of one party, he can't urge the person who speaks on behalf of the sky, right? ”

The soldier was too frightened to speak.

"Alright. Others are also the duty, don't talk about it. Li Tianqi said to Zhou Ruolin: "I'll leave now, you pay attention." ”

With that, he stepped forward and said, "Lead the way!" ”

The three soldiers hurriedly ran forward and walked briskly towards the council hall where General Wei was......

After they left, Zhou Ruolin asked softly, "Do we really want to act according to the plan?" ”

Qing'er said: "His personality is like this, he must be worried that the general may keep him by his side for a long time, which will affect the plan, and he must have done this to attract the attention of General Wei and others to him, so that we can take the opportunity to act calmly." In that case, let's go ahead with the original plan. Hopefully he'll be back in time. ”

Zhou Ruolin sighed: "That's it." ”
