Chapter 195: Nightcrawler

"It seems that there is an answer in this Sima Mansion that we want to know. ”

Xingchen said to Jiang Hai, who felt the change in his eyes, which was a common problem of duty.

Jiang Hai shook his head, not agreeing with his thoughts, the guards outside were already extraordinary, what would be like in the house, and he didn't know the specific origin of this family, so he was afraid that it would be dangerous to break in.

Chu Tian didn't know what the two were thinking, and he was just staring at Sima Mansion at the moment.

"Even if there's something we want to know, it's hard to get in, unless we have an invitation. ”

In fact, all three of them noticed that the visitors were all coming with invitations, and if they could get them, they could enter them without much effort, but how could such a thing be so easy to obtain.

Picking the stars made a look again, and wanted Jiang Hai to be a gentleman on the beam with him again, but Jiang Hai vetoed it again

"If you look around, you might find a way. ”

The three of them left, and the people around continued to watch, and the people holding the invitation cards entered the mansion in an orderly manner, which was the only prosperous place, and the only place where there were no Jin Lin army and city guards.

......

"It's still Sima Fu who is generous, please let us move some stones and flowers, and the salary is one or two silver, I have never encountered such a good thing in my life. ”

"Yes, yes, I just hope that Sima Mansion is always there, and we can earn more silver, and life is difficult. ”

"Shhhh ”

......

The conversation of the three plain men in the original place attracted the attention of Jiang Hai and the three of them, and they were all happy Isn't this God helping, knowing that there is hope for entering Sima Mansion.

took the three of them to the corner, learned everything under coercion and temptation, and begged for the clothes of the three people, and after dressing up, they went to the back door of Sima Mansion.

"Who are you?"

The person who looked like a housekeeper in the backyard looked at Jiang Hai and the three of them and asked, This is not the same people as yesterday.

"My lord, we were found by Ah Gou, and the three of them built a house at home today. Speaking of which, thanks to the good errands given by adults, we have a good life......"

"Okay, if it weren't for the large number of visitors in the house today, I would have driven the three of you away, and now that there is a shortage of people, you will stay and follow the third child. ”

The housekeeper hurriedly stopped, looked at the three sloppy people with disdain, and called a man in Tsing Yi next to him to lead the three.

"Don't let the three of them enter the inner courtyard, you can only help in the backyard, you know?"

The housekeeper left to handle other matters, although he was only the third housekeeper, but now the dignitaries and nobles from dozens of miles nearby have come to the mansion, and he is helpless when there are many people.

The third elder worker should be trusted, but he is a man of few words, and the three of them cannot extract any useful information from their mouths, so they can only do things in the backyard.

The size of the mansion made the three of them dumbfounded, and even the well-informed Jiang Hai was only shocked at the moment.

The backyard is a place where miscellaneous servants live in a martial arts arena that is wider than a martial arts arena, and what will the main hall and inner courtyard look like.

Whether it is a potted plant in the house or a rockery lotus pond, they are all dressed up elegant and domineering, and they also look out of place in a place like Zhongzhou, and the background of the house owner can be imagined.

There are dozens of handymen who carry this kind of work alone.

I can't help but suspect that Mo is not related to the royal family, but he is surnamed Sima, so it is very likely that he is a relative of the emperor.

In the blink of an eye, it was late at night, during which the three of them did not act, honestly carrying goods or miscellaneous labor, and how to act under the watchful eye of many pairs of eyes.

The inner courtyard and the backyard have become the most stark contrast, on one side is the singing and dancing, the sound of drinking, the sound of congratulations, the sound of talking, the sound of the ear, as if it is in front of you, but the distance between the two is not far away.

And here is the silent labor, if there is neglect, the next moment will attract the attention of others.

None of the three men had ever seen anyone dressed in any other color except for the guards.

midnight

At last it was rested, and everyone ate in silence, and the carnival that had been wanted for a few hours was over. Although it is said that eating is not a big fish and meat, it is not comparable to the food of ordinary people.

All the officials sighed in a low voice, when have they ever been treated like this, these days are really blessed.

For this kind of heartfelt praise, the third child who ate with him did not stop it, because he was also stained with it.

"There are too many visitors today to this time, if you will be allowed to leave the house on weekdays, now you live in this inner courtyard, remember not to wander around, no one can save you out of this backyard. ”

The three were able to stay in Sima's mansion.

When the husband was on the watch, the three of them opened their eyes at the same time, and everyone fell asleep without any sound, and it was time to find out.

Three figures flew out of the backyard towards the inner courtyard, and no one saw them.

The law of the inner courtyard is beyond the imagination of the three of them, as if walking in the palace of a small country, there are rooms everywhere and there are guards by the family, motionless like a door god, and there are guards patrolling in twos and threes.

Such a formation, even the city lord's mansion in some cities in the past, did not have such a demeanor.

The statues in front of the house, or the trees or the rockeries, are not naturally grown, and they are incomparably huge, so they are all transported from other places just for decoration.

Although he rarely talked to each other, he heard some information from many officials.

It took only a month from the beginning of the construction of the mansion to the completion of the mansion, and the completion of such a huge project in such a short time is enough to show the prestige and status of the mansion owner.

It is inseparable from the Empire, on the other hand, the Empire was actually thinking about this a month ago, and it must have been deployed earlier.

It is not far from the Reincarnation Lake, and there are many things he has encountered before, so Jiang Hai concluded that this mansion master must be able to give himself an answer.

After shuttling for a long time, the three of them found the main wing, which is really dazzling as if it is a maze, but fortunately, the main wing is more magnificent, and a little comparison can be found.

But what made the three of them strange was that such an important place was not guarded, was it negligent or deliberate, or was there a hidden formation or guard?

There was a faint light flickering in the wing, and this was the only place to go in and out, so that the house was only lit by oil lamps instead of lighting gems?

After waiting for a pillar of incense, the three of them acted, because they didn't notice anything wrong, just quiet, the smell of the night.

Flying up to the roof, there was no real wind and grass, picking the stars and lifting a tile with ease, and then taking out an object from his bosom, which was a collapsible telescope-like object.

The only difference is that it can be rotated, not limited to the front of the field of view.

After a moment of confusion, he shook his head, not knowing if he had seen no one or if there was no clue.

Jiang Hai was not surprised, after all, he knew his identity as a thief, and Chu Tian was staring at the stars at the moment, and obviously felt that something was wrong, how could a normal person have such a thing, and at a glance, he knew that it was a tool like snooping.

He didn't see the star, but just made a gesture towards Jiang Hai, and then landed directly on the beam of the doorway, where there was a ventilation hole that was more convenient to explore, and the snooping object was inserted again to look inside.

When Jiang Hai and the others followed, his whole body trembled, making an extremely subtle crackling sound.

The two of them only saw the change in his form, and within a moment he had shrunk a full circle, and he had not stopped.

'Bone shrinking!'

Both of them thought of a Chinese exercise, and it was rumored that a strong man who practiced this exercise would be able to wear the clothes of a three-year-old child, and his muscles and bones would be broken, which was extremely magical.

In a sigh, he even entered the vent.

Terrible!

The vent was only two feet wide, far less than a three-year-old child's clothes, and although he was only six feet, it was not as simple as splitting the muscles and bones into the two-foot vent.

No matter how Chu Tian didn't understand, he guessed his approximate identity at this moment. Looking at Jiang Hai again, there was no reaction, so he knew the identity of this guy.

Picking the stars entered the room, looked around, and said that this was a side room and not all, because there was everything, and the shelves were full of books, which undoubtedly showed the identity of this person, because some of the books were valuable and could not be obtained by silver.

Pen, ink, paper, inkstone, desk......

You can't see the head at a glance, and the oil lamp is not ordinary, because the lampshade on the outside is also a transparent jade, and it turns out that what flickers is only the carved veins above the lampshade, like a painting, a picture of the stars.

The whole is divided into four rooms, and the most internal test should be the bedroom, and the person in it must be sleeping at this moment.

Fortunately, there were no traps, and the stars were a little relieved.

After the sound was transmitted, the door was opened, allowing the two to enter, saying that it was opened, but in fact it was silent, and the energy used was extremely faint and imperceptible.

This reduces the likelihood of detection.

Jiang Hai looked around, star map?

I always feel like I've seen it somewhere, but I can't remember it, so I can only give up.

After a general look at this room, I knew that there was no danger here, there was a quietness, which was the breath of a sleeping person, so there were people in the house, but as long as there was no big movement, it would be fine.

The three of them looked at each other and understood this, and then looked around for clues under the leadership of Xingchen.

Something that can prove the identity of the lord of the house, or a clue related to the seal.

In addition to the bedroom, the three rooms are involved, but unfortunately there are not many things that few people want, but I feel the special thing about the lord of the house again.

Because there are everything on the bookshelf, there are medical books to cure typhoid fever, divination books to watch the stars at night, and even fists, palms, and war......

The most important thing is that each book has a specific mark on it, so it proves that these books are not just decorations, but the lord of the house has read them, so this is a knowledgeable person.

'Let's go, go to the bedroom!'

Picking up the stars to deliver the information, Chu Tian's eyes widened, he didn't expect him to be so bold, Jiang Hai was hesitating, and all the signs showed that the mansion master was extraordinary.

And none of these three rooms have any useful clues, presumably the bedrooms will have.

But there are people in it, and what if they do, and besides, there is no guard outside the door, and there are no traps here, so that's the problem.
