Chapter 194: Into the Tiger's Den - There is an opportunity

"Chief, the hand of the sixth son has been smashed, you send two more people in to take the handle, otherwise I am afraid that the young master will be angry if you miss the hour." A small guard came over and nodded back.

"As far as your kid has a lot of things, that sixth son asked him to roll up and leave tomorrow, so he can't do such a trivial thing, what is the use of him." The man who was called the steward cursed. Then he turned around and glanced at the guards not far away, and beckoned, "Just the two of you, come here, go inside and do a favor." ”

Ling'er was still nervous and tried to turn her back to the person behind her, listening to the greeting at this time, but she didn't know if she was calling herself, maybe because of her weak heart as a thief, the more she wanted to relax, the more her hands and feet became weak.

"Just the two of you, the big man and the short man next to each other, you hurry up, who recruited this group of cowards into the mansion, it's really more cowardly than the other, see if Lao Tzu can't fix you well another day."

Ling'er is so virtuous, he was worried and depressed when it didn't happen, but he really felt a kind of indifferent relaxation in front of him, and turned around and walked with King Heng to the side of the manager.

"Boss, you see that your body is thin, so it's better to have the next person go in." King Heng finally felt that it was better for Ling'er to stay outside, and in case there was any movement inside, it would be more convenient for her to escape.

"Hey, you kid is quite distressed, don't you have any unsavory thoughts about him, right?" As he spoke, he reached out to touch Ling'er's face.

Ling'er hurriedly avoided it, and said resignedly: "The manager misunderstood, the little one doesn't know this big brother, so the little one will go in and help." After speaking, he walked to the gate in three or two steps, and King Heng also followed in when he saw this.

Because of the special task tonight, Ji Yu repeatedly asked his subordinates to be careful, because although the manager still had some thoughts about Ling'er in his heart, he didn't dare to make too many mistakes.

Ling'er and King Heng entered the temple with their front and back feet, only to find that the universe in it was even more profound than they thought before. The people outside occasionally heard the sound of talking from time to time, but inside it was silent, everyone was busy moving things, although watching people coming and going endlessly, but in an orderly manner.

The two of them followed a group of people into the main hall, and the appearance of this temple was very dilapidated and inconspicuous. I didn't expect the main hall to say in the past, in the middle of a Buddha I don't know what the golden body of the Buddha is a few feet high, standing majestically, very magnificent. Ling'er glanced at it a few more times. I secretly wondered in my heart, how could I not see that there were monks inside, could it be that they were all wiped out, or they were just people who were in the same stream as the Prime Minister's house.

Beyond the main hall and further back is the backyard of the temple, with several neat rows of houses. Under the cover of this night, it became more and more gloomy, Ling'er cautiously looked back at King Heng, and it was much more reassuring to have Ah Heng standing behind him.

"Hurry up and blindfold yourself, what are you thinking?" A big man standing outside the temple gate with a big sword in his hand shouted.

Ling'er was startled, turned her head and found that she was less than the big man's shoulder, and she looked thinner and thinner. Since she still had to be blindfolded, Ling'er subconsciously touched the inner bag, and sure enough, there was a black face towel, and she hurriedly took it out and blindfolded her eyes. King Heng behind him unconsciously glanced a few more times ahead, and the big man was obviously a little impatient. The big knife in his hand is about to come over. After all, King Heng was born noble, and the pair of starry eyes were not angry but mighty, and he swept towards the big man in the dark, and the man couldn't help but be stunned on the ground, and Nuo Nuo's shrank back.

The team began to squirm, and Ling'er felt that this road was by no means leading to the small house in the backyard, because it took a long stick of incense to stand. "Then, take it!" A warning sounded in his ears, and then a bag of unknown things was put in his hand, and Ling'er almost didn't hold it.

"This body. Where can you do this job, you will give him some points later. ”

Only then did Ling'er feel that the things in her hand had been taken away, and she was suddenly much more relaxed. After taking the good things, he turned his head and went back, this time Ling'er had a little memory. It was still the same way as before, and it was not until the main hall that the black scarves were allowed to be removed, and everyone sent the things to the carriage waiting outside the door.

A few times like this, watching the hours pass little by little, if it is so grinding, it will be troublesome until dawn. Ling'er tried to find an opportunity to slip away several times, but this arrangement was too thorough. Where there is a little gap to take advantage of.

"Don't worry, according to calculations, the load of several carriages is about the same." King Heng whispered, obviously a little anxious.

As soon as the words fell, the chief steward who had assigned two people to come over to help earlier suppressed his voice and ordered, "Stop, you have to work tonight, and there are many rewards in the house, so go back." ”

The stone in Ling'er's heart just fell, and when he saw everyone walking towards the grove in front of him on the left, he followed suit.

"You two don't have to go, do you?" As he passed by the steward, a cold shout floated softly.

At the same time, the guards standing around "brushed" and drew their weapons, and immediately surrounded the two of them in the middle, King Heng stretched out his hand to protect Ling'er behind him, and also pulled out the long sword from its sheath.

"Dare to die alone, the two of them can really be called heroes, but they have the courage to come, and they don't have the life to return, so they will be buried here today!" As soon as the chief manager finished speaking, everyone came to fight.

King Heng was about to hold his sword to face the battle, but Ling'er, who was shrinking behind him, whispered, "Cover your mouth and nose." ”

"Ahem, cough, cough" A violent cough sounded immediately, mixed with shouting.

The two took advantage of the chaos to highlight the crowd and ran towards the woods not far away, and when the man came to his senses, he had already run some distance.

"There are so many hidden weapons from you, was it itchy powder just now?" King Heng grabbed Ling'er, who was out of breath and ran away, looked back and saw that the people who followed behind him were silent, and asked with a smile.

"Those things smell too big, where can I always carry them everywhere, I just brought a packet of chili powder, this thing is cheap and easy to use, and it is very affordable."

King Heng suddenly had a big word "Chuan" on his forehead, and it was becoming more and more difficult for him to understand this seemingly simple little girl in front of him.

"What exactly is it that we just shipped? Where is the Tibetan land? It seems that there are many secrets of the Prime Minister's House. After a series of questions, Ling'er reached out and held the hand of King Heng sitting on the horse, and King Heng pulled it up with a little force, and the horse galloped away.

Qingxi and Nuo'er saw that Miss and the prince had disappeared for a night, and finally returned safely at this time, so they hurriedly fetched clean water to help freshen up.

"What's so nice about your hands?" Ling'er changed into clean clothes and came over, and saw that King Heng was still sitting still, holding up a pair of hands to look at it carefully.

"They are carrying firecrackers, or more precisely, the raw materials used to make them."

"Gunpowder!" Ling'er blurted out, why didn't she think of it before, the strong smell of sulfur was clearly gunpowder, but there was no gunpowder in this era. It can barely be said to be a firecracker.

"This king broke a little bit with his hands during the handling process, and the powder was stained on his hands, and it looked like a firecracker at this time."

"It seems that we really guessed correctly this time, only to find out that we already knew their plan of action. I don't know if they'll be transporting these things out of town tonight. ”

King Heng was silent, his eyes still fixed on a pair of hands. Ling'er was also very depressed, and finally found out that Ji Qian's old thief's big move had gone wrong halfway, and it would be even more difficult to make any progress.

"Don't think about it anymore. The ancients said, 'Those who do their best but do not come can have no regrets!' You've done your best, haven't you. Ling'er took King Heng's hand and pushed him to freshen up, and he ran outside to sit down and taste the food prepared by Qingxi and Nuo'er.

Qingxi put a plate of fried dumplings in front of Miss, brought the dipping sauce closer, and complained: "Miss can't run away next time, look at what they look like, if they continue like this, I'm afraid that they will be able to blow people away in the Winter Wind Hall." ”

Nuo'er glanced at her, "You can talk nonsense, young lady's daughter's body, and the wind can still blow the gold?" ”

Ling'er tasted the food beautifully. While watching the two girls bickering for themselves, they forgot about their troubles for the time being.

When the young lady was almost finished, Nuo'er said: "Someone just came over and said that there was something to report to the prince and young lady, but I was busy forgetting it, why don't you let him in now?" ”

Ling'er knows Nuo'er no matter how much she knows, but this girl protects herself the most, and she must want to let herself have a meal at ease, so she deliberately stopped and didn't report it, although the matter is urgent, but she is loyal, and she can't say anything. Busy beckoning people in.

King Heng also finished washing at this time, wearing a moon-white robe, it was the height of summer, so he looked a lot cooler. When I heard someone coming back, I knew that there was news from the person who had gone with me before. Then he sat down at the table and waited. Ling'er gave a portion of the millet porridge and shrimp dumplings in front of him to King Heng, and I don't know when she was concerned about this person's diet and daily life.

"Back to the prince, the subordinates followed the group of men and horses out of the city gate and walked forward, until they came to a place called Qingfeng Cliff, and those people stopped, and Leader Han didn't know how to act next. So he asked his subordinates to come back and ask the prince. The guards who came said it clearly and unequivocally, and it was quite smooth to follow the situation.

"Qingfeng Cliff", Ling'er's head flashed in inspiration, it's over, now it's just that if you don't go to Ji Yu for trouble, that guy will definitely not be able to spare himself. I was so anxious that I was angry, but I didn't have a pair of scuds to solve the problem immediately, and I stared at the door without speaking.

King Heng guessed what Ling'er was thinking at this time, and thought for a moment, "You hurry up and go back and tell Han Yong that he will send men and horses to disrupt the opponent's camp tonight, and it is best to delay for a day or two so that he can't make any moves." ”

The person who came was ordered to leave, and Heng Wang Fu comforted Ling'er again, "You can rest assured, Han Yong has always done things safely, they won't find anything in two days, and we still have time to transfer the Liu family." ”

Ling'er was relieved at this time, and accompanied King Heng to finish his meal and prepare to go straight to the Black Wind Cliff.

"Find my senior brother, and say that I have something to ask for with the prince." Holding the burden and hesitating for a long time, Ling'er said.

"Would you like to go back to the temple again?"

Ling'er smiled at King Heng knowingly, and it was really tacit enough, which can also be guessed.

After a while, Zishan and Zilin had already arrived, and Ling'er got straight to the point, "You try to go to the backyard of the temple at night, and use that as the center of the circle to find the place where there is water around." ”

"Why is there water in a place, this king thinks that the environment is indeed a little abnormal, but he has not heard the slightest sound of water?"

Ling'er opened her mouth to say that when she traveled in the wild, she couldn't hear the slightest sound of water in the jungle lake she passed by, but the water vapor there was extremely thick, which was easy for a sensitive woman to perceive, but maybe only a woman like her who had more outdoor activities would dare to conclude that it was a forest lake. "I just rely on feelings, I can't say the specific reason, you just listen to me, if you really can't find it, it's just that I'm too careful." Ling'er was perfunctory.

King Heng didn't ask any more questions, and after Ling'er finished explaining the matter, the two hurried out.

It is said that Han Yong and the others got the order of King Heng and tried every means to delay time, but the reason is unknown. In this wilderness, there are not many ways to think of it, it is night, and there are bursts of screams and fights among the people and horses sent by Ji Yu, and it has been noisy all night. When it was dawn, the leading guard saw the miserable minions who were bitten by the wolf, and he was furious. The original flint did not work for some reason, and it was dark all night, and it happened that these wolves suddenly broke in, and everyone was frightened, and they were in a mess for a while, so they were bitten by these beasts for half a night, and then they solved it by themselves.

Seeing that everyone was disturbed all night, at this moment they were all drooping their heads like defeated roosters, and they could no longer act according to the original plan, so they had to stay still and rest for a day.

In the early morning of the second day, Ji Yu rushed over with a few personal guards, and at this time, everyone eased up a little and explained the matter one by one. Ji Yu saw that although a few people died, fortunately, the impact was not great, so he no longer pursued it.

The group of horses and horses then walked towards the secluded place behind the Qingfeng Cliff, and the coffins were dragged by the carriages, and because of their size and weight, they were extremely heavy, and they could not reach a suitable place for half a day.

"Back to the young master, there is an extremely hidden place behind this Qingfeng Cliff, but there is a family living in it, and there are a few fierce hunting dogs, and the small ones dare not come closer."

After hearing this, Ji Yu said impatiently, "Give them some silver, let them get out of here, don't delay the big thing of this young master." ”

When the guards heard this, they were very embarrassed, and they had to go back. But it only took an hour to turn around, and since the stone house was empty, even those vicious dogs were gone, and the guards were secretly happy in their hearts, and they had saved a lot of trouble.

When Ji Yu arrived at the place where the stone house was, he saw that this place was really back to the mountain, and in a deep valley, not to mention the human eyes around, even a hare did not see a single one for a long time, so he arranged for people and horses to quickly unload all the things. Just wait for the dead of night to do what you planned.

Ling'er and King Heng hurried to Qingfeng Cliff, and when they saw that the Liu clan was still there, they were relieved, and then ordered the mountain people who were guarding to take the people away quickly, and the two chose a secluded place to hide, just waiting to reap the benefits of the fisherman.
