Chapter 224: Three Nests of Cunning Rabbits
Sun Tang turned the corner at the end of the street, and in front of him was a slightly dilapidated small independent courtyard, although it was a little dilapidated, but compared to the more dilapidated low wooden houses around it, this small courtyard was undoubtedly a mansion. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
One rushed forward, Sun Tang stepped forward and knocked on the door, a big head poked out of the crack in the door, looked at the lost Sun Tang suspiciously, and asked vigilantly, "What's the matter?" ”
Sun Tang hurriedly replied: "I am Sun Tang of the 'Drunken Cloud Residence' Restaurant, I have an urgent matter to find your Mutang hall master, and Brother Lao will report it to me." ”
Before the words fell, Sun Tang stretched out his hand and touched it in his arms, and grabbed a silver ingot in his palm and handed it to the big man.
"Squeak." The door was immediately opened, and the silver taels in Sun Tang's hand disappeared in an instant, so fast that Sun Tang didn't know what the silver taels in his hand were taken away by the big man.
"Come in!" The big man swept the silver taels in his hand, and finally showed a little smile on his face. When Sun Tang entered the door, he looked out of the door a few more times, and closed the door when he couldn't see anyone.
At the corner of a side street more than ten meters away in front of the small courtyard, Tang Ming and others were hidden in it. Li Ba looked at the small courtyard in front of him and asked in a low voice, "Master Hou, do you want to go up and break in?" ”
Shaking his head, Tang Ming motioned for everyone to wait in place and not act rashly, then turned to look at Zhu Yongyan and said: "You take more than 20 people to the back, this place extends in all directions, that small courtyard must have a back door, guard it, don't let anyone escape." ”
Zhu Yong smiled, turned around and walked away with someone, and when he passed by Li Ba's side, he also picked his eyes demonstratively. Li Ba pursed his lips disdainfully, and he didn't bother to pay attention to Zhu Yong.
Tang Ming silently counted the time in his heart, and only when he felt that Zhu Yong was almost in place did he wave his hand and let Li Ba take people out to break the door. Li Ba was provoked by Zhu Yong just now, and at this moment he was holding back a sulk in his heart, and when he saw that Tang Ming finally let himself do it, without saying a word, he took out the embroidered spring knife on his waist and immediately rushed straight forward with people.
"Bang!"
After a loud bang, the wooden door that looked quite sturdy was kicked directly to the ground by Li Ba. Seeing that the wooden door was kicked down by himself, Li Ba was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.
He didn't expect that this seemingly sturdy wooden door would be so useless, but his foot looked very majestic. I didn't see that the guards who followed closely behind him were all dumbfounded, and Li Ba, who was proud in his heart, wanted to rush into the door and kill.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped forward, he was greeted by more than a dozen sharp arrows with a slight sound of breaking through the air.
"Spread out!" Li Ba suddenly roared to alert the guards behind him, and he himself quickly dodged outside the door. At that moment, Li Ba clearly saw more than a dozen archers in the courtyard, hiding behind the obstacles in the courtyard.
I never expected that there were archers guarding this broken place, and it seems that the people here must not be simple people. Ancient archers were a rare species, and it took a lot of effort and time to train an archer than an ordinary soldier.
Ordinary people will never be able to train such archers, because except for the government, private training of archers is not allowed. After secretly cultivating archers, more than a dozen appeared at once, which made Li Ba suddenly excited, this time he must have encountered a big fish, and he Li Ba could finally raise his eyebrows in front of Zhu Yong.
And Tang Ming, who was still hiding from a distance and watching, didn't know the way here, he was only worried about how Li Ba would be able to rush into the first hurdle guarded by the archers.
Li Ba didn't let Tang Ming wait too long, after a round of arrows was fired, Li Ba was the first to jump out of the wall covering him, the embroidered spring knife in his hand danced so hard that he couldn't get in, and after a few dodges, he was already close to the front of those archers.
Two screams rang out in the swing of the embroidered spring knife, and the archers' positions were immediately disrupted, and the remaining guards outside took the opportunity to quickly rush in.
Nearly ten archers were all killed on the spot, and all of them died tragically under the sharp embroidered spring knives. The smell of blood immediately permeated the entire courtyard, Li Ba didn't bother to check on these people, his bloodthirsty eyes swept around, and he suddenly jumped and kicked open a wooden door in front of him.
There was no one in the house, Li Ba rushed in to look for it and then walked out, and after ordering everyone to search the room, he ran to the backyard alone.
After Sun Tang entered the small courtyard, he was led to the backyard by the big man who had opened the door for him, and after entering a waiting room, he did not stop, but continued to turn into a secret door next to him, and walked into a dark passage, which was very dark, and there were only a few oil lamps along the way, emitting dim light.
The big man who led the way was not surprised by this, he was familiar with the way, but Sun Tang took a while for the boss to adapt to the dim environment inside, and he didn't know how long he walked inside, Sun Tang saw a little sunlight shining in front of the dark passage.
Out of the road, there is a rockery outside, and the exit is just a crack where two stones merge together. If you don't look closely, you won't notice that this is an exit from the road. It's still a small courtyard that's been deserted for a long time.
No one cleaned the fallen leaves all over the floor, and the doors and windows of the surrounding rooms were mostly broken, and they were covered with cobwebs. As soon as the wind blew the fallen leaves on the ground and made a rustling sound, the desolate and gloomy feeling came to his face, and Sun Tang couldn't help but shudder.
The big man looked at Sun Tang, whose face was pale, with disdain, and silently raised his feet and continued to move forward. Sun Tang was scared in his heart, and he didn't dare to say anything if the big man didn't make a sound, so he could only follow closely, but fortunately he didn't go far this time, and only entered a temple through a broken wall in the courtyard in front of him.
Walk a few dozen steps, in front of you is a two-story small wooden building, fortunately this wooden building is no longer dilapidated, although the outside does not look new, but the inside is still clean and bright.
Dahan asked Sun Tang to wait in the hall, he walked to the back hall by himself, and soon heard a hearty laugh: "It's rare for Boss Sun to come, I wonder if Boss Sun got the blueprints of the treasure ship?" ”
Sun Tang followed the prestige, only to see a middle-aged man with a big face and a wide forehead walking out of the back hall with a smile, and before he could say a kind word, he immediately asked about the treasure ship drawings, Sun Tang sighed secretly in his heart, and couldn't help worrying about his own life.
I don't know if the hall master of this wooden hall will kill himself with a knife when he tells what happened. But now, there is no room for Sun Tang to have any concealment, and life and death are all up to this hall master. (To be continued.) )
