Chapter 57: Tie Out
They didn't talk for too long, so they left together, and from the beginning to the end, Liu Ji didn't make a move, because Yang Guozhong brought a large number of guards, and he didn't even have a horizontal knife in his hand, so it was impossible to fight hard.
Judging from the figure, it was a tall and burly man, Yang Guozhong, who was born in the market, was not a weak scholar.
When they entered the main courtyard, the doors on both sides were closed, and the silence and darkness returned to the huge courtyard.
"The situation has changed, the target has been perceived, and there may not be a chance to sneak in tomorrow, so I decided to activate the backup plan, from the direction of Qujiang Pond, sneak into the main building, you are responsible for answering below, maybe we have to swim a long distance."
Everything was planned before they came in, and the four of them had no objections, the reason why they were asked to be able to water was to cope with the changes in front of them, Qujiang Pond is very long, one person with a body, may not swim far and will be exhausted, five people are different, at least they can be rotated.
They followed Liu Ji, climbed over the courtyard wall near the water, slid down a small slope, dived into the icy pool, and when they reached the bottom of the main building, everyone surfaced together, climbed the same slope, and then lifted Liu Ji up and let him climb over the courtyard wall, and then stayed outside and waited.
Liu Ji slipped down the courtyard wall, below is the back edge of the main building, there is no human trace, the patrol is blocked by the floor, naturally he will not find him, but there is no door on this side, he needs to climb the window to get in.
In front of him, there is a tower building about fifteen meters high, divided into three floors, wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, the higher the room should be, the less the room, according to the characteristics of this era, as the host, Mrs. Qiuguo should live on the highest floor, and the guest is either the lowest floor or the second floor, and the height he has to climb is about ten meters.
This kind of wooden structure of the tall building, usually supported by a few columns, such a height, the need for support columns is not less, just what he saw in front of him there are as many as six, the whole building has up to twenty, this is only the periphery, there are almost the same number inside, that is, the whole building is a rectangular box-shaped structure on more than forty thick wooden pillars.
Now he had to do it very simply, slowly climbing up a pillar that jutted out of the building.
Liu Ji took out a pair of leather gloves from the leather bag around his waist, to be precise, this is a pair of intact snow wolf claws, removing the fleshy layer and muscles and bones, and then nitrated, completely retaining its appearance, of course, as well as the sharp claws at the front end.
The snow wolf's front paws are in the shape of an eagle's beak, which can easily tear through the hard leather armor, and even the iron armor is difficult to block its full force, and the hardness can be imagined.
Liu Ji wrapped his hands on the wolf's claws around the thick pillar, propped his feet on the pillar, and moved up little by little like a frog, trying not to make too much noise.
The sharp wolf teeth piercing into the hardwood, making a slight "creaking" sound, the effect of which has been proven on the tree for a long time, the only trouble is that it will leave a very obvious mark, of course, no longer careless.
In this direction, there were no windows on the first floor, and when he climbed to the second floor, he suddenly heard a strange sound, to be precise, the wheezing sound of a woman when she was emotional, and he was not unfamiliar with it at all.
Liu Ji quietly poked his head out, his body hung diagonally in the air, the wooden window not far from him was the kind of push-down type, only a small slit was opened, and from the gap, only a man's naked back could be seen, and a looming snow-white female body.
"Ahh The woman seemed to cover her mouth, trying to endure it.
After some movements, the man suddenly became excited, and scolded while increasing his strength.
"Little, go to death."
Then he lay on the woman's body and didn't move, and after a while, he straightened up again, his figure was very tall, covering the entire window tightly, Liu Ji could only hear a small sound of dressing, but he couldn't see the woman's appearance.
"Dead ghosts, make a big effort, make the slave live happily."
The woman let out a coquettish exclamation, as if her mouth was gagged.
Liu Ji was stunned in his heart, where had he heard this voice.
Before I could figure it out, there was movement in the room again, the door seemed to be opened and closed, it should be a woman walking out, and the man's figure flashed by the window, and then someone came in.
"What did Yan Zhuang say?"
"He's going to leave the city tomorrow, and he wants us to give him a send."
"This old boy, he must have sniffed out something, I can't imagine that Li Genu, that old thing, is dead, and he can still have such ability, which one will do it? Li Xiu, if he had this ability, he would have sat in a certain seat a long time ago. ”
"What Mr. Yan means, the county king is in full swing, if we can't defeat Li Xianzhong in a short time, we will all be in trouble."
"Let's ...... Hum. ”
The woman's voice Liu Ji didn't expect it for a while, but he already knew the man's voice, it was Yang Guozhong who had just picked up the solemn Yang Guozhong in the courtyard.
It is rumored that he is having an affair with his clan sister Mrs. Qiuguo, could it be that the woman just now? Did they come together today, Yan Zhuang sensed something and wanted to leave? They thought of Li Linfu about it? One by one, all of them are spinning in Liu Ji's mind, and it seems that tonight is the only chance.
If this room is where Yang Guozhong lives, then listening to his tone, Yan Zhuang must also be on this floor, Yang Guozhong's house is always there, and he has no way to enter by surprise, so he can only give up the idea of killing this guy.
Next, there was no need to climb upwards anymore, Liu Ji grabbed the edge of the window, stepped on the bulge of the next floor, and moved sideways little by little until the next window.
Yan Zhuang stood in front of the open window, not to enjoy the night view, but the cold wind could clear his mind, so when an animal's paw suddenly appeared in front of him, there was no reaction at all.
Through the window, Liu Ji hit him on the neck with an elbow, causing his whole body to fall to the ground softly, and then jumped into the room lightly.
He found an unfinished letter on a small table, and from the text inside, it was confirmed that it was Yan Zhuang himself who was knocked unconscious, Liu Ji quickly blew out the lights in the house, and the door was plugged in from the inside.
He walked to the window, estimated the distance to the bottom, about five meters, untied the rope wrapped around his waist, tied Yan Zhuang who fell in front of the window with a strip of cloth to tie his hands and feet, gaged his mouth, thought about it, and went into the room again, and took the little guy out, and tied it up in the same way, and the two people were added together, and it was only about 100 catties, he simply tied them together and hung them down little by little with a rope.
Then he jumped directly from the window, and the moment he landed, his body rolled forward, unloading the impact of the fall.
Liu Ji pulled the end of the rope and climbed up the courtyard wall, first found his companion who stayed outside, then pulled his two bodies up the wall, and then put them down to let his companions catch him, and finally jumped down himself.
"How can there be two people?" The subordinate asked, puzzled.
"In his room, I'm afraid of waking up too early, so I just take it with me, and the left and right sides are not heavy."
Liu Ji replied, in fact, he just didn't want to kill an unrelated person easily, that little guy was not very old, at most he was in his teens, and he couldn't do it for a while.
Without saying anything more, the men untied the two of them and tied them back to back, and then they were to swim through a short stretch of water before entering a royal garden and finding a way out of the city.
Fortunately, except for the fact that the water is a little cold, there is no other obstacle, the water flow is very calm, just like in an outdoor swimming pool, the lights on both sides guide them in the direction, five people carry two bodies on their backs, and soon arrive at the end of Qujiang Pond, Furong Garden.
The garden was quiet, there was no sign of the patrols, but the fence was very high, almost six meters, and it would have been a bit of trouble to get two people up if it weren't for the help of their companions, and they were really relieved when all the people had climbed over the high wall and slipped down with the rope.
Carrying the stunned body, he didn't go far before he contacted the two sheep delivery sergeants who had gone out of the city before the night curfew, and they were in charge of answering the water with their horses.
Several people didn't dare to imagine that they really had to get people out of Chang'an City from under the noses of others!
