Chapter 184: Burning the Post House

Leaving the Wu Palace, Fan Li accompanied Lu Hai on the streets of Gusu. He wanted to escort Lu Hai back to the post house.

Lu Hai has just arrived in Wu State, and there is no enemy, so no one will fight him. But Lu Hai is too important. Without him, no one would have the ability to build Gusutai, and without Gusutai, Fan Li would not be able to toss, and the plan to weaken Wu's national strength would not be completed.

From time to time, people hurriedly walk through the streets, it is the spring season, the weather is neither cold nor hot, people are reluctant to enter the house, and gather on the street to chat. Many shops are also open.

The street was peaceful, and there was nothing unusual to see. But Fan Li still felt that someone was snooping in the dark. As he walked, he carefully looked into the shadows of the house, but found nothing.

It's inexplicable, unfounded, but intense. It made him uneasy. He looked back and saw no one following.

What the hell. Fan Li was a little frightened. I feel that there are ghosts, but I don't know where they are.

Lu Hai didn't have these feelings at all. As he walked, he talked with great interest about some new problems that may be encountered in the construction of Gusutai, as well as his coping methods.

He, like Gongsun Zhi Wu Ban, is also a technology fan. As soon as he had the opportunity to engage in technology, he immediately forgot everything. He doesn't care about politics, although Fan Li has already confessed to him that this time he encouraged King Wu to build Gusutai is not at all what he has been verbally propagated, it has so much great significance, and a direct purpose is to impoverish the Wu State.

But Lu Hai doesn't care about this, his heart is all on technology, and he wants to do this well.

The inn is not far from the royal palace, and it will be there in a while. A waiter had already arranged a room. Fan Li entered the room and sat for a while, and said, "Brother Lu Hai, you can sleep and rest, wake up a little at night, and deal with abnormal situations calmly." ”

Lu Hai said: "Lord Fan, I have calculated, the southeast side of Lingyan Mountain is a place with a very unique geographical structure, where there is a strong west wind all year round, I plan to make a large number of large windmills, and use the ten-level method of lifting water to send water to the top of the mountain......

Fan Li persuaded: "Brother, we have time to discuss technical matters. Now rest for me to return to the palace for duty." ”

Lu Hai said, "Okay, okay. Adults walk slowly. ”

Fan Li said goodbye to Lu Hai, left the post house, and walked towards the palace. The sense of foreboding in my heart grew stronger. He stopped, and with a swift flicker, he ducked into the shadows of the houses on the side of the street.

He carefully observed the pedestrians on the street, and everyone kept walking by, and no one took a second look at the inn, and no one stopped at the inn.

The inn is a foreign affairs agency set up by the imperial court, which specializes in receiving foreign visiting envoys, and ordinary merchants live in inns on the street. No one came to stay here, and it was not accepted.

Where the post house is very clean, there are no people at night.

Fan Li quietly walked back, and returned to the door of the post house again in a short time. He took a breath, squatted slightly, kicked his feet hard, and his body rose from the ground, landed lightly on the wall, and flashed on the roof. Find a hidden place and crouch down on the rubble.

The situation in the courtyard of the post house is in full view, there are not many guests, only a few rooms have lights, and slowly the lights are extinguished. The courtyard was completely silent.

In ancient times, after dark, there were no recreational activities, and they would turn off the lights and go to bed as soon as it was dark.

Fan Li lay motionless on the ridge. There wasn't a single stir around. There are also no anomalies. It seems that he is suspicious. Intuition is a feeling that has no basis.

Let's go back then. It's best if it's okay. Fan Li was about to leave, but suddenly fell down again. He saw a man's head slowly peeking out from the roof opposite. Apparently, someone was snooping in the yard.

Who's this? What is he peeping on? What is his purpose?

Fan Li observed quietly. I saw the man get up, leap lightly, and fall into the courtyard like a cat. The moment he landed, his body shook and he entered the shadows of the house.

"What a beautiful skill!"

Fan Li secretly cheered. I saw that the man stayed in the shadow for a while, and after making sure that there was no one around, he moved forward lightly, and finally stopped in front of Lu Hai's door.

Fan Li gently pulled out the long sword, if this person did something abnormal, Fan Li would jump down, and within two seconds, the long sword would be inserted into his heart.

But the man didn't make much of a noise, and he didn't break down the door. It's just growing in front of the door, and it seems to be tinkering with something.

After a cup of hot tea, the man left the door, came to the outside of the wall, jumped over the wall, and ran away.

Fan Li no longer hesitated, flew down, came to the Luhai Gate, stretched out his hand to touch, and the door nose buckles of the two doors had been entangled with cowhide bands. If there is an emergency, the people in the house will be trapped inside.

Fan Li stretched out his sword, cut the tendons, and gently patted the door.

"Who?" Lu Hai's voice.

Fan Li whispered: "It's me, Fan Li, please open the door." ”

The door opened, and Lu Hai asked sleepily, "My lord, please come in." ”

Fan Li flashed into the room and said softly, "Don't light the lamp, pack up your things and follow me." ”

"What's going on?"

"Don't ask, I'll tell you, now let's go."

Lu Hai is a traveler, there is nothing to do, simply clean up, and go out with Fan Li.

Fan Li asked Lu Hai to stand against the wall: "Don't talk, don't move!" ”

Lu Hai didn't know what was going on, but he knew that Fan Li asked him to do this, which made sense.

Fan Li turned around, closed the two doors, and re-wrapped them with cow tendons. Then he pulled Lu Hai gently to the wall, squatted down, and said, "Step on my shoulder." ”

Lu Hai stepped on Fan Li's shoulders with both feet, and as soon as Fan Li stood up, Lu Hai went up to the wall. Fan Li also jumped and flew up the wall.

The two of them descended the wall and found themselves in an alley.

Fan Li said, "Brother, follow me." ”

The two of them walked down the alley, and soon came to another street. The two of them moved quickly against the wall, and after a while, they left the inn far away.

Fan Li stopped in front of a shop, "Tuk tuk! "I knocked on the door three times, paused for a moment, and knocked three more times. And the door opened silently.

Fan Li pulled Luhai and flashed into the house. In the shadows, the shopkeeper said, "I've seen the General, what happened?" ”

Fan Li said: "Find a room and go in and talk." ”

The owner of the shop is Fan Li's secret line Fuying who was ambushed by Gusu. Say, "Come with me." ”

Fu Ying led the two of them across the patio and into a room. Fan Li said, "Wait a minute. ”

went out of the door, went to the house, searched the surroundings carefully, and found no abnormalities, and then returned to the room: "Here's the thing, just now someone used cow tendons to entangle Lu Hai's door to death, if my estimate is correct, the post house is about to catch fire." ”

As he was talking, he heard someone shouting on the street: "It's on fire!" ”

The three of them ran to the courtyard, only to see the crowd on the side of the post house, and the fire was soaring. The fire turned red in the sky.

Lu Hai said: "My lord, you saved my life again!" ”
