Chapter 234: Banana peels that eat people
Chapter 234: Banana peels that eat people
With the bright fires that can be seen everywhere, Luo Xiaofeng is guessing the residence of the emperor of the Great Zhao Empire.
There were tall and majestic buildings everywhere, and he really didn't know where the emperor lived, and even if he did, he didn't know anything about the palace, and he didn't know which emperor was. What should I do? Why don't you catch someone and ask first! Thinking of this, Luo Xiaofeng swept towards a nearby building. His current figure is very fast, and it is difficult for ordinary people to find his trace. Even if he is discovered, no one will be able to see his true colors. Because his face was covered with mud. His style is just in case.
Big red lanterns hung everywhere in the palace, and the whole palace was shrouded in red light.
Luo Xiaofeng tiptoed forward, he listened as he walked, within half a mile, any wind and grass could not escape his ears. He has lived in the Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts since he was a child, and hunts for a living, and no cunning beast can escape his tracking. But now, as if he had become a beast, he was always wary of the hunter's bow and arrow.
Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps in the wide, clear hallway.
Luo Xiaofeng hurriedly hid in the dark corner of the corridor. Although the footsteps were noisy, Luo Xiaofeng could conclude that there were a total of three people coming.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and the group ran past Luo Xiaofeng. In the hazy red light, Luo Xiaofeng was surprised to find that there were not three people in this group, but four! Three people ran in front, and one person followed leisurely behind, looking like that, it was more relaxed than walking. But this man's speed was not slow, and no matter how the first three people ran, they didn't want him to fall half a step. What is even more surprising is that although this person walked quickly, he was silent, not even a little sound. No wonder Luo Xiaofeng only heard the footsteps of three people just now.
These four people were dressed exactly the same as the guards on the gatehouse of the palace, and Luo Xiaofeng could conclude that the four people who ran by in a hurry were also the guards of the palace. Luo Xiaofeng didn't care about the three guards running in front, but the last guard made Luo Xiaofeng very puzzled: Why does an ordinary guard have such shocking skills? Could it be that this guard himself is a hidden martial arts master?
Luo Xiaofeng had quietly followed. In order to avoid being discovered by the people in front of him, he tried his best to avoid making a sound.
I don't know how many rooms I walked through, how many steps I climbed, and finally I came to the top of this palace. Although the roof of the palace is covered with tiles, there is a hidden mezzanine below. It's just that this mezzanine is taller and more spacious than the ordinary hall.
The entrance to the mezzanine is hidden behind a screen. Remove the screen to reveal an oval-shaped entrance. A long soft ladder leads down from the entrance.
Four people have entered the entrance. Luo Xiaofeng also quietly followed.
As soon as Luo Xiaofeng entered the entrance, the long soft ladder automatically retracted.
The entrance was pitch black. Although Luo Xiaofeng couldn't see, he could clearly hear the footsteps in front of him. He chased in the direction of the footsteps.
Suddenly there was a fire in front of me. First there was a little fire, then a large area.
Luo Xiaofeng hurriedly hid behind a screen. Through the gap between the screens, Luo Xiaofeng finally saw everything here. The mezzanine at the top of the palace is taller and more spacious than the average hall. On one side of the mezzanine is a row of chairs, each with a long table in front of it, filled with delicious snacks and fruits. These snacks and fruits, all kinds and colorful. Beneath the long table was an incense burner made of pure gold, filled with red sandalwood, and the incense mist curled up. Surprisingly, there was a huge coffin in the middle of the mezzanine. This coffin is ridiculously large, dozens of times larger than ordinary coffins. The huge coffin was surrounded by a circle of bright fires, and the dark black coffin board actually glowed with a metallic sheen. The group of four was kneeling at a long table.
Luo Xiaofeng was confused by the situation in front of him, he didn't know what was going on.
A shrill voice suddenly rang out: "Get up!"
The four members of the group all stood up cautiously, hanging their heads, and did not dare to come out.
A banana on the long table suddenly moved, and then the banana peel was slowly peeled, and the banana flesh disappeared little by little. Although he didn't see anyone, Luo Xiaofeng didn't feel strange, because he knew that this person who was eating bananas had used illusion stealth.
Luo Xiaofeng stared intently at the chair behind the long table. He wanted to see what this mysterious man looked like. Luo Xiaofeng was waiting, because he knew that all the stealth illusions wouldn't last long.
Sure enough, after a banana was eaten, a person suddenly appeared on the empty chair behind the table.
Luo Xiaofeng was taken aback.
The person who suddenly appeared turned out to be an old man with fluttering white hair. The long white hair spread out, covering most of the old man's face. Although the firelight here is bright, the white-haired old man always gives people a dark and vague feeling.
Luo Xiaofeng was looking carefully, but unfortunately he couldn't see the white-haired old man's face clearly.
What's going on? Luo Xiaofeng couldn't figure it out.
The white-haired old man peeled another banana and ate it slowly.
The four of them stood at the table with their hands down, as if waiting for the white-haired old man's orders.
The white-haired old man's shrill voice sounded again: "I have something for you to do, I don't know if you want to?"
The four of them said in unison: "Yes!"
The white-haired old man smiled and suddenly said, "Little Liu, what about you?"
The person who was called Xiao Liu quickly knelt down on his knees: "Xiao Liu is willing to obey the orders of Chief Manager Wang, go to the soup and fight the fire, and never give up!" He spoke, secretly looking at the white-haired old man's feet out of the corner of his eye. The white-haired old man was wearing a pair of bright red embroidered shoes on his feet. It's just that these embroidered shoes are extra-large, at least three or four times larger than ordinary embroidered shoes. Bright red embroidered shoes are embroidered with black peonies. He didn't expect a big man to wear a pair of red embroidered shoes.
The white-haired old man smiled gloomily: "You call me Manager Wang, do you know who I am?"
Xiaoliu didn't know how to answer, so he hesitated and said, "I'...... Know ......"
The white-haired old man looked up to the sky and laughed wildly: "A little guard with a shift actually said that he knew who the old man was......! Ridiculous......" he spoke, throwing the banana peel in his hand at Xiao Liu.
Xiao Liu looked at the banana peel thrown in surprise, not knowing whether to hide or not! At the moment when he hesitated, the banana peel turned into a huge bloody mouth.
It just happened in an instant. Everything is calm again, but the little six has disappeared without a trace. Luo Xiaofeng could even hear the heartbeat of those three people.
