Chapter 836: Going to the Island in the Night

In the next few days, the progress was relatively smooth, and Chu Ziheng successively took several islands where war supplies were hidden.

Several of them were very similar to the first island, there were only one or two hundred people guarding the island, Chu Ziheng sent people to occupy those islands with lightning speed, basically there were no casualties, everything went smoothly and Chu Ziheng was a little incredulous.

Because, Ye Chong had confessed that when Ye Zhongyue was arrested, he had already sent a letter to his master to warn, so Chu Ziheng thought that he would at least encounter a strong sniper when he went to sea this time, and he was ready to fight to the death.

However, looking at this situation now, it seems that the other party has not received Ye Chong's warning at all, and those who have left their hands on the island have no posture to defend against foreign enemies at all, which makes Chu Ziheng a little confused.

While constantly winning victories, he was a little uncertain in his heart, didn't something happen in the middle, didn't the other party receive Ye Chong's warning letter?

However, he has always been cautious, and he has not been carried away by the continuous victory, nor has he relaxed, but has become more and more cautious, and even every time he goes to the island, he constantly sends people to reconnoitre, repeatedly confirming that there is no possibility of ambush.

Today they are going to attack the last island, and after attacking this island, the island where the old scar's memory and Ye Chong confessed to hide the materials for war preparations are gone.

However, it is understood that this island is also the largest of these islands, and not only is it hidden with supplies that can equip tens of thousands of people, but also a large silver vault.

According to Ye Chong's confession, it is said that the number of guards here can reach 3,000. And they are all well-equipped elite soldiers who have been trained by agreement, and there should be masters in them.

Therefore, Chu Ziheng planned to attack this island at the end, because he expected that the attack on this island would cause a lot of trouble, and it would inevitably attract the attention of other small islands at that time.

If those small islands saw this situation and transported all the supplies on the island in advance, then this trip would be in vain.

Now, he attacked the islands, and he had many men, and he conquered them with a crushing victory, the speed of thunder. The other party didn't have time to react. He has already won, so he can prevent the news from leaking without having to attract the attention of the other islands.

Before attacking this island, Chu Ziheng was very cautious and sent two groups of men and horses to investigate. After the two groups returned. But it's all weird. The island was silent, and they disguised themselves on the island to reconnoiter a large circle, but they did not see any human beings.

That's weird. There were obviously 2,000 elite soldiers stationed on the island, but the two groups of men and horses didn't see anyone!

You must know that two thousand elite soldiers are not one or two people who can't be seen if they are scattered on the island, they are more than 2,000 strong men, how can they eat and drink Lazar without a trace!

Chu Ziheng sent another group of people to investigate, but after they came back, the content of the report was the same, there were no people on the island at all, compared to two thousand people, that is, there were no two hundred people.

The latter group relied on their martial arts skills and bravery, but they went to the deepest part of the island, and some caves on the island were checked, and there were no living people at all.

Chu Ziheng once thought that he had found the wrong island, but Lao Scar swore to the sky that he was not wrong with his life, it was this island.

Maybe he could be wrong about the small islands, but the big island used to be at least two or three times a year, and he remembered it very well.

Chu Ziheng chose to believe the old scar, because after he sent the reconnaissance soldiers back, some people said that there were suspected traces of human life on this island, but it was not very obvious.

Chu Ziheng thought that it might be Ye Chong's warning letter that the other party had already received, so he had already asked the troops on the island to evacuate with war supplies.

When Chu Ziheng was leading people to attack those small islands, the other party did not send people to resist, probably thinking that they were concentrating on evacuating from this large island.

After all, the materials stored on this island are more than twice as many as those small islands, and there is also a silver vault, which is said to contain all the silver that Ghost Face Island and Ye Chongxiao have paid tribute to over the years, which should be not small.

Chu Ziheng guessed well, Ye Chong's warning letter, but the other party had already received it, but because the affairs of the Ye family were exposed, the bright and dark lines of the Ye family's management in Yangcheng and even Guangdong were exposed, and Chu Ziheng quickly gave a blow and eliminated.

In this way, the communication channel between the Ye family and Xuanyuan Island was destroyed, and many days had passed when the letter finally reached Chu Zhengyu's hands.

Time is pressing, Chu Zhengyu knows that if the current emperor is the existence of these war materials, he will definitely not stand by and stand by, but what makes him embarrassed is that he does not know when the emperor will send troops.

Maybe the encirclement army is coming soon, so time is tight for them, although he has managed some manpower over the years, but some of these are on land, there is no time to reinforce, and finally he made the decision to lose his pawn and protect the commander.

Giving up the supplies on those small islands, and transferring all the materials and silver on this large island with all his might, in order not to arouse suspicion, he did not evacuate the guards on the small island.

In other words, those guards became outcasts, and they became Chu Zhengyu's tools to delay Chu Ziheng's time.

At this time, although Chu Ziheng guessed something, he couldn't be sure, but since he had arrived, he was still a little unwilling if he didn't go to the island to investigate carefully.

And the transfer of materials is also transferred from this place to the next place, in such a short time, he doesn't believe how far the other party can be transferred, maybe it is in the sea near here, he wants to go to the island to investigate and see if there are any clues.

When the last group of people came back, Chu Ziheng decided to go and investigate in person at night.

Because if there are people on the island, I am afraid that they will not think that someone will come to explore the island at night, after all, this is the sea, and the geographical location is complicated, and it is impossible to do this thing at night.

So, if there are really people on the island who are talking. I'm afraid that the evening is the time when they are most relaxed, and Chu Ziheng decided to go and find out when the time comes.

In the dead of night, Chu Ziheng changed into night clothes, took advantage of the boundless night to get on a small boat, and went to the island.

Before leaving, an order was given that the army should not be sent until he returned, and not a single soldier should be dispatched.

His order was also for the sake of safety, because he always felt that the island was a little weird, and with the fact that he had seen Chu Zhengyu's mysterious organization deal with it for so long, he didn't believe that the other party gave up so easily.

The night on the sea is even darker. Except for that crooked crescent. There was no light.

Chu Ziheng sat on a small boat and touched the island, and then he was alone in the night, and quickly disappeared from the sight of the sailor who rowed a small boat to see him off.

After Chu Ziheng went to the island, he first investigated the periphery of the island. After his careful investigation. Found out that there were indeed people living here.

Because in some sheltered places. Traces of the pier that were once built can be seen, although they were treated when they evacuated, but the stones in those places. It is still a little different from the naturally weathered stones in other places, and some artificial traces can be seen on it.

In addition, he also saw some scattered fabrics hanging on a tree branch, thinking that when someone passed by, he accidentally hung on his clothes, although the fabric was very good, but Chu Ziheng's five senses were keen, and he still saw it clearly.

After confirming this, Chu Ziheng went deeper to investigate.

At night, this deserted island was silent and pitch black, and all the plants near and far were there, and the shadows were terrible black.

The plants are also diverse, sometimes it looks like you see a person or an animal standing there from a distance, but when you get closer, you realize that they are just some trees with strange shapes.

Occasionally, you can hear the roar of some ferocious animal coming from a distance, one after another, or suddenly some small animal is alarmed, and suddenly "rubs" and jumps out from the side.

It's also scary enough, if you are timid, you will probably be scared and don't dare to stay for a moment, thanks to Chu Ziheng's firm will, and the art master is bold, he can continue to move forward alone in the dark.

Finally, I passed through this somewhat frightening woods, and came to an open field, and in front of me was a small lake, and under the reflection of the moonlight, the lake water was clear and glorious.

Chu Ziheng recently observed and picked up a little soil from the ground, and found that this open land boundary was very likely to have troops stationed before, because the soil here was new soil.

Moreover, it is close to the lake, it is very convenient to get water, and the woods behind it can block the wind and block the view, so it is the first place to be stationed.

I was about to continue to observe and observe, but at this time, there was a burst of thoughts and bamboos in the distance.

Chu Ziheng was stunned for a moment and began to think that he thought he had heard it wrong, because there were already five groups of people saying that there was no one on the island, although he had a glimmer of hope in his heart, he didn't expect that the people on the island would play the piano at night!

However, then it was another joy, since there was a voice, it proved that he had come to the right place this time.

Throwing down a handful of dirt in his hand, he followed the sound, his figure fluttering, without making any sound, towards a small forest in front of him, shuttling quickly through the forest in the dark night, like a ghostly figure.

Passing through a grove again, the sound of playing the harp was getting closer and closer, until a rock wall appeared in front of it, blocking the way.

Chu Ziheng put his ear on the rock wall, listened carefully to his ear, and found that the sound of the piano was indeed coming from the rock wall, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Only then did he know why the three groups of reconnaissance teams sent to them all said that there was no one on the island, and it is estimated that they also saw this rock wall and thought that it was over, so they thought that there was no one anymore.

However, now it seems that this is not the case, Chu Ziheng is sure that there must be some surprises waiting for him behind this rock wall.

By the light of the moon he began to search carefully, and after a cup of tea, he finally found a crack in an inconspicuous place facing the rock wall that could accommodate a man and a half, through which the sound of the harp came out.

However, this crack is very cleverly blocked by two stout trees, so if you don't get close and look carefully, you won't notice this crack at all.

Chu Ziheng didn't rush in, but he was afraid that there were guards inside, and he would startle the snake, and through that crack, he looked inside.

He saw that the place where the crack met was a small corridor, and the corridor was empty, and from the end of the corridor he could see the bright light of the stars.

The more you get to this time, the more you should be careful, Chu Ziheng spread out the inner palace, investigated, and found that there was indeed no one around here, this time he was relieved to dodge in, he walked very carefully, just in case there was any mechanism.

However, all the way to the end of the road, but there was nothing unharmed, Chu Ziheng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Stand at the exit of the corridor, use the wall at the exit to cover your body, and go out to look inside.

He couldn't help but be stunned at this look, and he actually saw a house, and it was not a simple wooden house, but a three-story house, built of solid wood, with a mountain wall in the back, and an empty martial arts arena in front.

The arena was also surrounded by a square of one after another, which was a little simpler than the three-story building, but because it seemed to be built against the mountain wall, it looked solid.

At this time, the courtyard was very quiet, there was no one, and these houses were all darkly lit, according to Chu Ziheng's judgment, such a silent performance, there should be no one inside.

At this time, the only lights here were the two dead wind lamps hanging high in the courtyard, and the lights in the main hall on the first floor of the three-story house.

The light coming out of the tunnel is emitted by the light sources from these two places.

And the sound of the piano that attracted Chu Ziheng came through the main hall with the lights on.

At this time, there was no external object to obstruct it, and the sound of your piano reached Chu Ziheng's ears without hindrance, and the sound entered his ears.

To Chu Ziheng's surprise, he was very familiar with the sound of the piano, it turned out to be the song Liang Zhu, which was the song he played when Ruoyun returned to the capital to attend the Spring Banquet of King Zhao's Mansion before he and Ruoyun got married.

At that time, Ruoyun used the piano of Leisurely Residence to play, and with Sun Xin's accompanying dance, she won the first prize in the talent competition of the Spring Banquet of King Zhao's Mansion that year, and made her name as the county lord of Anyang in the capital in one fell swoop.

And, he himself won the first place on the men's side back then, and in previous years, those crepe games were the home of his second brother Pingwang, and he would not participate in those things.

However, that year, he knew that Ruoyun was going to participate, and he was sure that Ruoyun would definitely get the first place, so he took the first place, just so that when people mentioned this as a matter later, put the names of the two of them together, he didn't want to put the name of the second brother with him to get Yun'er.
