Chapter 66: Sin should be beheaded.
Shilang's Mansion is about three streets away from the North Gate, and the distance should be between 1,500 meters and 2,000 meters, so Zheng Lin and the others must think about how to escape after completing the task or failing to complete the task, and how to escape if the city gate is closed at that time, they must study these things clearly, otherwise they will be sent to death in vain. As far as they know, the closing time of the north gate is at the end of the day, that is, before the sub-hour, so their actions must start at or before the time of the day, otherwise they will miss more opportunities.
To the north of Shilang Mansion, there are two military camps in Chang'an City, one has 500 officers and soldiers, and the other has 2,000 officers and soldiers, the number of military camps in the east is small, and the defense and patrol work is poor, it is their first choice for escape routes, and at the same time, there are almost one to two hundred officers and soldiers guarding the city at the north gate, and they change shifts every two hours.
To the north of Chang'an City is the mountains of Wanli, to the west is the vast desert, and to the east is close to the war-torn area and Chunyang Palace, so after escaping Chang'an City, where to go first is also a condition to consider. At about the end of the Shen period, he returned to the inn in the old year, and after seeing everyone, he took out the sketch of the Shilang's Mansion that he had drawn, and said.
"I relied on the Five Poison Holy Beasts to roughly grasp the situation in the Shilang Mansion, the front yard of the Shilang Mansion is a large open field, and there are three patrols, which is extremely difficult to pass. On the left is the garden, which is darker at night, and from the garden you can go around to the place where Cao Xiu lived, Tonghua Yuan, which was located in the middle of the Shilang Mansion, and because of this incident, Cao Xiu's residence was guarded by a great deal of guards, and according to my estimate there were about one hundred and fifty guards. ”
Looking at everyone's reactions, almost everyone frowned, and he continued: "Tonghuayuan, there are a total of twelve rooms before and after, in addition to Cao Xiu, there are also his comrades who participated in the arson live here, and the most important thing is that we don't know Cao Xiu, so this is too difficult for us, what should we do?" ”
Fairy Tale looked at the map and said to the old man: "Can you use Gu or poison to solve those guards?" ”
Yi Nian shook his head, obviously this is not realistic, there are too many people, and there is no chance for him to cast Gu poison, if there are only a few guards, it can still be considered, but there are more than 100 people, and the distribution is too scattered, I am afraid that it will be discovered just after starting it. The fairy tale also felt unlikely, so she took the map of the Shilang Mansion and thought about it repeatedly, and didn't know what to do for a while.
Half an hour, everyone thought about many ways, all felt unsafe, and then the fairy tale gritted his teeth, and said: "No matter, take a risk, we choose the method of attacking the west, we have a total of six people, five of them, respectively to expose themselves, lure the guards, and leave only one person to carry out the task of killing, but this method is extremely risky, it is very likely that the person who carried out the killing task will not come back, and it is also possible that we will not be able to come back, you think about it carefully." ”
Everyone looked at each other, and Zheng Lin took the lead and said: "Husband, there is something to do, something must be done, if we can't give an explanation to the people about this matter, how can we be worthy of this Lang Lang Qiankun." I agree to this approach, even if we die, at least we don't regret it. ”
Zheng Lin agreed, Dugu Xiao naturally had no opinion, and Zhou Ziling and Yi Jiunian were the most trusted people in fairy tales, and they had no objections, so in the end, only Ban Xiaoman was left, everyone looked at her, and they all wanted to know Ban Xiaoman's decision, for a girl who was still very simple, killing people and fighting was unimaginable, not to mention facing a life and death decision.
But what everyone didn't expect was that Ban Xiaoman readily agreed, and she pointed to Tonghuayuan on the map and said: "I insist on carrying out the killing mission, if I don't succeed, I will become a benevolent!" ”
Fairy Tale looked at Zheng Lin, the latter nodded, indicating that there was no problem, they had also learned about Ban Xiaoman's life experience and experience before, this kind of thing came again, how could it not be angry? So after Ban Xiaoman was recognized, she was also relieved, she sat alone on the chair, wiping the Aoshuang knife in her hand, but her heart was full of thoughts. To be honest, she hadn't killed anyone, she didn't know what would have happened when she was faced with that moment, and she was worried that she would kill her partner.
Time passed little by little, and after everyone had eaten, they sat in their rooms and waited for the time to come, and when the fairy tale pushed the door open, they knew that this moment had finally arrived. The six of them took advantage of the night to quietly come to the wall on the west side of the Shilang Mansion, and they changed into night clothes, all of them obeyed the command of the fairy tale, he took the lead in signaling to use the holy scorpion to explore the way, and after confirming that there was no problem, several people crossed the wall and groped their way forward in the garden of the Shilang Mansion.
There are holy scorpions in front of them, they easily evade the patrolling guards, and because it is too dark here, they were almost found a few times, fortunately, there is no danger, about two o'clock, they finally arrived outside Tonghua Garden, from the outside can be detected, the guards here are indeed stricter than other places, fairy tales to recall the old years, the latter understood. Although the old years are mainly based on mending the heavens, there are still some skills in killing.
Remembering the old year, he controlled the spirit snake to rush into Tonghua Garden, with the spirit snake in front, he was in the back formation, and successfully attracted the attention of the guards, and the nearby guards had already begun to attack him, and at the same time did not forget to shout "Catch the assassin, catch the assassin..."
And the last Ban Xiaoman, relying on the gap brought to her by her partner, successfully sneaked into the first room, because of the noise, the people who lived in the first room had already been woken up, looking at the half Xiao Man with a long knife in his hand, the man was so frightened that he quickly knelt down and said: "Hero spare your life, spare your life!" The idea of burning down the refugee camp was Li Tang's idea, not me, really not me. ”
Ban Xiaoman's eyes narrowed slightly, and asked, "Who is Li Tang, which room does he live in, and which room does Cao Xiu live in?" ”
The man hurriedly replied: "Li Tang is the son of the envoy of the city calendar, in the fourth room in front, as for Cao Gongzi... He... He..."
Ban Xiaoman suddenly put the long knife on his neck and said angrily: "What is he? Tell me where he is? ”。
The man was so frightened that he hurriedly said: "He was hidden, hidden in a secret room in the mansion, in fact, the pomp and circumstance here are all to lure you into the bait, Cao Gongzi is not in Tonghuayuan at all, the hero spares his life, spare me, I told you..."
But before he finished speaking, he found that he couldn't make a sound, just because of this time, he was already in a different place, half a small man looked at the blood on the knife, and said hatefully: "You, you should be killed, and none of you can escape!" ”
