168 Tuning the Tiger

Several black shadows flew down, and after a while, Qiu Zhi also flew lightly to the position where they had just been ambushed.

The location they chose was very private, and when they looked down, there was a separate courtyard at the bottom, and the eaves could be seen rising and falling under the lights.

A group of soldiers patrolled under the porch, and Qiu Ci quickly held his breath and leaned over the eaves to prevent them from discovering it.

The guards of the Zhenguo Mansion are very tight, and a team of soldiers patrols every ten minutes, and if there is no internal response, those few people just now will definitely not be able to retreat.

Qiu Ci thought for a moment, she didn't know if she should go down.

According to Song Yu's methods, he should be fine.

It's just that the Zhenguo Mansion actually has an internal response......

Well, let's take a look first.

The snow is still heavy, there are a few scattered lanterns hanging under the eaves, reflecting the low-hanging branches and leaves, and there are large and small stones piled up randomly among the flowers, and the path is quiet, and there is not a single sound.

Perhaps someone swept it, and the snow in this yard was not thick.

Autumn Ci carefully avoided the light and hid behind a mountain rock hidden by branches and leaves.

There was a sound of broken footsteps on the bluestone road, someone was coming!

"Grandpa Guo left Beijing late at night, and the house must not be careless." It was a man's voice, and Autumn Ci sounded familiar.

"Yes, Escort Xiao, don't worry." The other replied respectfully.

The original person who spoke turned out to be Xiao Zhizheng.

He is Song Yu's personal bodyguard, and his status is higher than that of these subordinates in the mansion.

Xiao Zhizheng nodded, "Before leaving, Grandpa Guo left a hundred guards for us and arranged for these people to come in. ”

The other person should be.

Xiao Zhizheng said a little abruptly, "The master is not in a good mood, he didn't eat dinner, and he hid in the study all night and refused to come out." ”

Another person advised, "Guard Xiao doesn't have to worry, I'll send someone to send it later." ”

"That's all there is to it." Xiao Zhizheng said.

The two of them drifted away from the bluestone road, and their voices gradually became inaudible.

Autumn words thoughtfully.

She knows Song Yu's amount of food. One meal can last five bowls of rice, if he doesn't eat......

That's true.

After the two left, Qiu Ci avoided the lights and slowly turned to the back of the small courtyard.

She hid in the shadows and watched behind.

Behind the eaves, only a few lone lanterns hang under the porch. The lights are dim, and the courtyard is deep and empty.

The scene in the backyard is clear at a glance, only a dozen feet away is a low bush.

There's no hiding in this place.

But the bushes ......

Qiu Ci's heart moved, tiptoe around the corner, and flew onto the roof.

She had just arrived and flew to the rooftop. Then another group of soldiers patrolled by, and they passed under the porch with their heads held high.

Qiu Ci suddenly noticed that there was a sudden movement in the low bushes in the backyard.

As the soldier was about to pass, a black shadow silently approached the last soldier, and he moved swiftly and violently, holding the soldier by the throat with one hand and holding him with the other.

The soldier couldn't break free, and he was held hostage.

Seeing the soldier in front of him gradually move away, the man in black grabbed the soldier's neck. He spoke in a low voice, "I ask you something, and you answer honestly, otherwise I will kill you immediately." ”

The soldier couldn't move, so he blinked.

"Let go of you now, you are not allowed to shout!" The man said again.

The soldier nodded repeatedly.

"Where is your master's study?" The man asked in a low voice, but his hand only loosened his throat slightly, and as soon as he shouted, the man could choke him again.

Probably knowing that the person in front of him was a master, the soldier did not struggle. Honestly pointed the way.

"Didn't lie to me?" The man in black asked in a low voice.

The soldier shook his head in a panic, "No, no, I definitely didn't lie to you." ”

The man in black relaxed slightly.

The soldier seemed to have seized the opportunity and lunged forward. As he ran, he shouted, "Someone, there's an assassin ......"

The rest of his words were swallowed in his throat, and the man in black swung his sword sharply, and the long sword pierced through his back.

The soldier's eyes suddenly lost their lustre, and he fell under the eaves.

The man in black waved his sword back. A kick flew up, like a ball, and kicked the soldier into the bushes beside him.

The autumn words lying on the roof can be seen clearly.

These black-clothed people are the ones just now, I am afraid that they have long been ambushed in the bushes, and when they heard Xiao Zhizheng's words, they are now going to the study to find Song Yu.

……………………

Song Yu's study was brightly lit, and looking inside from the outside, a clear figure could be seen under the candlelight.

Xiao Zhizheng stood at the door of the study, not daring to leave.

The courtyard is full of guards with three steps and one sentry, five steps and one post, and it is so tightly protected that even a fly can't fly in.

The door of the study suddenly opened, and Song Yu's figure appeared at the door.

He didn't know what to say to Xiao Zhizheng, Xiao Zhizheng stood aside respectfully, and after a while, Song Yufu returned to the study and closed the door.

Xiao Zhizheng called a guard and gave a few orders, and the guard took the order and left.

It didn't take long for a small servant to carry the food box and send it in, but it was obvious that in the end, he took the food box out untouched and gave Xiao Zhizheng a helpless look.

The autumn words fell on the roof, and I could clearly see what was happening here.

Those few men in black were lurking in the shadows, probably waiting for the right time to strike.

There are many guards in Song Yu's courtyard, not to mention others, just one Xiao Zhizheng is tricky enough, even if these black-clothed people are high, they may not be able to kill all the guards here.

Qiu Ci felt slightly at ease.

When it was almost ugly, the weather became colder and colder, but the snow in the air seemed to be smaller, no longer a large area of goose feather snow, but like torn cotton wool, fluttering and flying in the air.

Suddenly, there was a noise in the east, accompanied by the sound of chaotic footsteps, and the sound of human voices.

"Catch the assassin!"

"Don't let him run!"

"Quick, catch him!"

……

Qiu Ci's brows furrowed.

How could it be so coincidental that there were assassins at this time?

Xiao Zhizheng had already sent a few guards to the front to check the situation, and then he still stood in front of the study with his waist straight and his hands down.

He had no intention of leaving.

At this moment, a black shadow flashed outside the courtyard, grazing the edge of the wall.

Xiao Zhizheng's eyes were sharp, his sharp eyes swept away, and he calmly ordered a few guards to go over, "Quick, people are there!" ”

Looking at this series of events, Qiu Ji couldn't calm down anymore.

This is a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain.

But fortunately, Xiao Zhizheng still has no intention of leaving.
