Chapter 130: Discovered?
"What the hell is going on?"
Listening to the sound of the thin rope outside, Liu Heizi's eyes couldn't help but froze, and he asked with a surprised face.
"I don't know!"
"You guys go up to the city and have a look!"
The people around were also at a loss, but fortunately, they reacted quickly, pulled a few soldiers, lowered their voices, and whispered.
"No!"
"No!"
Several soldiers hurriedly nodded and stepped forward with serious faces.
Because Montenegro was besieged by a large army, the head of the city was reinforced several times, and the city wall was even wider, not to mention the stray arrows, even if they were hit by the bed crossbow, they would not be damaged.
"Is there a sound down there?"
Niu Wu lay on his stomach at the head of the city, carefully looking down. But under the walls, except for darkness, it is still darkness.
No matter how they gathered their eyes, they could only see that it was pitch black, and they found nothing.
Quiet!
Exceptionally quiet!
At this moment, it was as if the heavens and the earth were enveloped and frozen in darkness.
The tall walls, the deep darkness, as if it were a huge monster, with its mouth open, wanted to be swallowed by the sky.
Looking at the darkness in front of him, even a veteran of a hundred battles with a mind like iron and stone felt a chill rising from his tail vertebrae.
The body trembled a few times involuntarily...
"Niu Wu!"
"What's going on up there?"
"Why are you standing there?"
"But what did you discover!"
Looking at Niu Wu, who was standing still, Liu Heizi, who was standing below, couldn't help but ask urgently.
"It's fine!"
"Your Excellency!"
"Nothing happens!"
"It's just that it's pitch black down there, and we can't see a trace of the situation at all... ”
Hearing Liu Heizi's question, Niu Wu woke up as if from a dream, a little hesitant, and a little scared.
"Damn it!"
"He almost found out!"
Hidden in the dark, Cheng Niu'er, who was climbing on the wall like a gecko, looked at Niu Wu who turned his head back and smiled, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and the tense muscles in his back also became relaxed.
He didn't expect that Niu Wu's feelings would be so keen.
Even though he had restrained his breath and closed his eyes, it still made him feel something.
Fortunately, Niu Wu didn't think about it, and he didn't have such a strong inspiration, but fortunately, because of this, he was not discovered...
However, I haven't waited for a real sigh of relief. At the head of the city, Liu Heizi's sound seemed to be a broken gong.
"Stupid!"
"Keep the lantern on!"
"So you can see ... ”
Cheng Niu'er, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, stood up again with the hairs on her back. There was a hint of surprise in his eyes. He subconsciously curled up in a ball, hiding in the cracks of the masonry.
Under his influence, all the soldiers pressed their cheeks tightly against the stones, not daring to make a sound.
"Good!"
"Good!"
"Don't say it, I forgot!"
Hearing Liu Heizi's words, Niu Wu's face couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Even more embarrassed smiles. However, he did not hesitate, and quickly took a dead wind lamp from the city, tied it with a rope, and prepared to lower it from the sky.
What is a dead wind lamp?
In fact, it is a lantern covered with cowhide, because of the skill, even if the wind is strong, don't want to blow him out. That's why it's called the Dead Wind Lamp.
It is also for this reason that this kind of lamp has always been loved by the people.
Whether it is on both sides of the road or at the door of his own courtyard, there are many people hanging.
A huge burst of fire burst out, and the darkness around them receded instantly. Under the city wall, which was originally pitch black and looked like a bottomless pit, a little light slowly appeared.
As the lightfall dispersed, the darkness around it slowly receded.
。。。
"Damn it!"
"What now?"
Looking at the angry wind lanterns that were little put down on the head of the city, as well as the brighter and brighter surroundings, Cheng Niu'er's eyes couldn't help but reveal a trace of worry.
The people around him bit their lips tightly, grabbed the cracks in the city wall, and some people bit the daggers in their mouths hard, for fear of making a little noise.
"Keep your body close to the walls!"
"Close your eyes!"
"Eyes are reflective!"
"Don't let them find out!"
"No!"
"No!"
Hearing Cheng Niu'er's order, everyone didn't dare to be careless and hurriedly stuck to the wall.
Syllable!
Syllable!
The lights exploded, a trace of sparks flew, and the ropes slowly sank.
The soft light spreads out, tearing through the darkness. The soldiers at the head of the city also took a closer look at the light.
"Nope!"
"Head!"
"How could someone be down there!"
"This wall is dozens of feet high!"
"How is it possible for someone to climb the city wall without the help of siege equipment!"
"Unless they all fly!"
"Unless they're all monkeys!"
"But how is that possible?"
"That's it!"
"That's it!"
One by one, the soldiers chimed in loudly.
"Besides, you don't know what's going on on the other side!"
"There are only more than 10,000 people in total, how dare they attack the city?"
Seeing Niu Wu looking at the city with a serious face, the soldier next to him complained dissatisfiedly:
"If you want me to say, we'd better hurry back. It's a cold day. ”
"That's it!"
"Let's go back and take a few sips of wine and warm up!"
"You don't want to die?"
"General Liu is still waiting for our reply below!"
"At this time, if you dare to neglect your duties and dare to drink, I don't want your head!"
Niu Wu looked around and glared at the man heavily, then lowered his voice and said.
The soldier also realized something, and couldn't help but shrug his shoulders and stick out his tongue, his face full of fear.
Liu Heizi and the others watched from behind, he really didn't dare to steal and play tricks.
"Hurry up!"
"Hurry up!"
"Hurry up and put the rope down!"
。。。
"General!"
"What should we do?"
Looking at the rickety but candle-like lantern, getting closer and closer to him, the expressions of Cheng Niuer and the others suddenly became stagnant, and the muscles in their backs were even more unnaturally tense.
"What to do!"
"It's all ready!"
"No matter what happens, don't move!"
"We are at least ten zhang away from the city, and the armor and long knives on our bodies are all blackened, and they will not reflect at all!" "As long as we are careful, we will definitely not be discovered!"
Cheng Niu'er looked at the lanterns getting closer and closer in the air, and her face became unnatural. However, he did not panic, but lowered his voice and solemnly admonished.
"No!"
"No!"
When the soldiers below heard Cheng Niu'er's command, they all whispered their promises, and their bodies curled up in a ball like invertebrates.
"What a sound!"
Just when Cheng Niu'er and the others were hiding, Niu Wu seemed to hear a hint of abnormality, and asked in surprise.
Hear Niu Wu's voice...
Like worms, Cheng Niu'er and the others, who were moving carefully, couldn't help but stiffen. The hairs on the back stand up even more:
"Discovered?"
