Late at night, a crescent moon hung high in the night sky of Nanyang City, and the clouds floating in the sky from time to time also made the night even darker.

The two guards at the gate of Cai's mansion held spears in their hands, leaning on the stone pillars on both sides, their eyes flickering and struggling, and a few long yawns came out of their mouths from time to time. In normal days, the lord would not arrange a doorman in the middle of the night, after all, as the lord of the dignified Nanyang, who would dare to come to his house to make trouble.

But since the old man ordered the hunt for those two people a few days ago, he has made it mandatory to increase the guards at night, especially at the door, and resolutely not let anyone in!

Just when the two guards were drowsy, they suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing, which made one of them tremble, and immediately woke up, subconsciously raised his weapon in his hand, and shouted: "Who, who is it?" ”

When he shouted, he startled the other companion opposite, and he couldn't help but roll his eyes when he saw him screaming and screaming as if he was alone there: "I said you are sleeping, it's empty, there's nothing, what's the name of the ghost!" ”

This person was reprimanded by his companion, and he also looked at the open space in front of him awkwardly: "Uh, hehe, I'm dazzled, I'm dazzled." ”

Just like that, the two guards continued to doze off there, completely unaware that someone had actually rushed down the road in front of them, but they couldn't see it clearly! It was none other than our protagonist Zhou Yukun who came late at night.

After Zhou Yukun rushed from the main gate, he found that the two guards at the door did not react at all, and he couldn't help but smile in his heart, God help me, the sky is cloudy today, and the moon is also very dim, which is just right for me to inquire about the news.

Coming to a wall, Zhou Yukun jumped and stood on top of the wall. He didn't jump straight down in a hurry, but observed the situation around him on the wall. Due to the dim weather, Zhou Yukun could not see many objects, and could only vaguely see some dim firelight swimming back and forth in the distance.

Obviously, those were the soldiers patrolling Cai's house. However, Zhou Yukun really didn't expect that this Nanyang Taishou would be so well-prepared, and even arranged a patrol team in the middle of the night, it seems that he is not a useless waste!

Probably remembering their movement route, Zhou Yukun jumped off the wall directly, and after landing gently, he didn't make a sound, and could only hear the noisy insect chirping in the surrounding grass. Slowly moving out of the grass near the fence, Zhou Yukun found himself on a large road, which, according to his previous observations, should have patrols.

Zhou Yukun was not in a hurry to get out of here, so he turned around and hid in the grass. Speaking of which, the height of these grasses is indeed not low, about nearly sixty centimeters high, which is still the height after being pruned by the gardener, just enough for Zhou Yukun to squat in it.

Sure enough, a few minutes later, a group of soldiers walked steadily down the road with a torch in hand. Zhou Yukun carefully found that the pace of this group of soldiers was not only neat and consistent, but also very sonorous and powerful.

These soldiers are too well-trained, and they are still so energetic after a night of patrolling, it seems that it is impossible for them to achieve anything big tonight.

Gradually, this group of soldiers slowly left, but Zhou Yukun rushed out of the grass directly and followed behind this group of soldiers unhurriedly. Just followed them all the way, and Zhou Yukun almost walked around with them.

In fact, it's not that these soldiers are careless, nor is it how good Zhou Yukun is at concealment, but that Zhou Yukun has always pursued this principle and did the opposite! The attitude of these soldiers on patrol is so serious, Zhou Yukun thinks that it is difficult to guarantee that he will not be discovered by them when he is running around, but he is not afraid to follow them like now.

Why, in fact, the reason is very simple, that is, the so-called dark under the lamp. The patrol soldiers were so focused on carefully observing the abnormalities around them that they ignored the places they had just checked, which was why Zhou Yukun had been following them undetected.

Moreover, Zhou Yukun followed them not only for safety, he also had his own ideas. For example, you can observe your surroundings while following these soldiers, after all, if you run around aimlessly, who knows if you will directly bump into someone's hands if you run around aimlessly.

Or the most important point, Zhou Yukun knew that since these soldiers were going to patrol these roads, it would also show that these places were more important in disguise, otherwise why would he send so many soldiers over, could it be that he had too many subordinates, and he had nothing to do?

After remembering this route clearly, Zhou Yukun gave up on this team, and followed behind another team, and once again explored the route. Nearly an hour passed in such a boring way, Zhou Yukun didn't know why he didn't feel a trace of fatigue, but was in a full state of mind, perhaps it was the tension of this secret action that made him maintain a high concentration all the time.

And, the funniest thing is that Zhou Yukun feels like he is playing a game now, a game of concealment and assassination. At the same time, Zhou Yukun suddenly had the idea of transforming into a Japanese ninja, or the Dark Knight in American comics - Batman!

After following about five teams, Zhou Yukun had roughly figured out the surrounding situation, and it was obvious that this neighborhood was not a residential area, but more like a warehouse and other places, especially when Zhou Yukun also saw a huge house, and there was a team of no less than twenty people guarding the door of the house, which made Zhou Yukun more sure that there was something important in it.

However, Zhou Yukun knew that the purpose of his trip was not to steal, but to find Taishou, even if there were more treasures in it, it had nothing to do with him. But what he didn't know was that the things in it did have something to do with him, and it had a lot to do with it!

After writing down the location of the warehouse, Zhou Yukun was ready to transfer the place and go to other places to observe, at least to find the place where this Taishou Mansion lived, otherwise he would run for nothing tonight.

Hiding in the dark night, Zhou Yukun left this well-patrolled area after a few times. Along a large road, he saw a pond and several pavilions nearby, apparently for coolness and scenic recreation.

Similarly, Zhou Yukun was also overjoyed in his heart, since he saw the place to play, the place where he lived must not be far from here. Thinking like this, Zhou Yukun couldn't help but speed up under his feet, and after walking for a long time, he came to a place where the houses were more crowded.

Well, looking at the wooden basins and brooms scattered outside the room, this is supposed to be where the maidservants and servants live.

Zhou Yukun didn't plan to stay here longer, but he suddenly heard a slight voice, which made him feel shocked, could it be that he was discovered?

Gently hiding his body in the wall of the room next to him, Zhou Yukun cautiously observed the surrounding situation, but he didn't see any figure at all.

At this time, the voice in his ears sounded again, and this time it became extremely clear, so that Zhou Yukun could clearly hear these conversations, but what made him cry and laugh was that it was obviously a young couple talking privately in the room, and he happened to come over and hear it.

Just as Zhou Yukun was about to leave, after all, he didn't have the habit of eavesdropping on other people's conversations. But the next conversation between the two made Zhou Yukun have to stop!
