Just when Han Jiang, Yelena, Makarov and Xu Renyu got into the sewer pipe again, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan heard the strange sound from last night in Ji Moshen's office, the sound was not loud, it seemed to be smaller than what he heard last night, Tang Feng couldn't hear what it was, and after a while, the sound disappeared, and there was silence outside the door, but soon there was a sound of footsteps in the corridor......

"Anyone?" Tang Fenghu looked at Liang Yuan suspiciously, and Liang Yuan was also at a loss.

The footsteps were dull and regular, Tang Feng heard that the footsteps were not coming towards Ji Moshen's office, so he took a long breath, "Why are there more footsteps tonight?" Liang Yuan asked puzzled.

"Maybe it's the security guards who are stepping up their patrols, or maybe it's the staff here." Tang Feng speculated wildly.

Just as the two of them were drowsy and about to forget about the strange sound, the strange sound came again, and the sound seemed to be slightly louder than before, but it quickly disappeared.

Tang Feng and Liang Yuan listened with their ears pricked up for a while, and after a quarter of an hour, Tang Feng was sure that the strange sound did not appear again, so he closed his eyes again, but as soon as he closed his eyes, there were footsteps in the corridor again, Tang Feng opened his eyes suddenly, carefully distinguishing the footsteps in the corridor, the same as what he heard before, it was still the dull and regular footsteps, the difference was that the footsteps seemed to be ...... It's coming from his own side.

Liang Yuan also noticed the strange footsteps outside the door, according to Liang Yuan's character, although she was afraid, she had to go out to see what was going on, but Tang Feng grabbed her, and Tang Feng whispered: "Have you forgotten Ji Moshen's words?" No matter what's going on outside, don't go out. Unless ......"

"Unless what?"

"Unless someone breaks in!"

After speaking, Tang Feng found a glass vase in the office and leaned against the door to prevent the uninvited guest from breaking in. The footsteps outside the door were still moving towards Ji Moshen's office, Tang Feng held the vase tightly and held the vase above his head, but, at this moment, the footsteps stopped abruptly, Tang Feng estimated that the person should be standing not far from the door, he looked at Liang Yuan, Liang Yuan also copied a thick dictionary, just waiting for the door to open......

One second, two seconds, three seconds, five seconds, ten seconds...... There was no movement outside the door, and Tang Feng's palms were already oozing a lot of fine sweat, but the footsteps outside the door seemed to have disappeared. Tang Feng held his breath and moved his body slightly, and suddenly, the footsteps outside the door sounded again, but Tang Feng and Liang Yuan both heard the footsteps and turned around and walked back, gradually moving away, it seemed to be going downstairs, and it seemed to have disappeared at the end of the endless corridor.

Tang Feng gently put down the vase in his hand, took a long breath, Liang Yuan flashed to the window, lifted the corner of the thick curtain, and looked at the Hermitage Square, the square was empty, and there was nothing unusual.

After waiting for a while, Liang Yuan complained: "It's a strange sound again, it's footsteps again, it's really hell tonight!" ”

"Forget it, don't worry about this, it's still bothering us, right?"

"Our business?"

"We can't stay in Tymoshin's office like this all the time, and I want to leave here tomorrow."

"Where can we go out of here? The hotel will definitely not go back. Liang Yuan exclaimed.

"I didn't think about it, but I definitely can't stay here!" Tang Feng said very resolutely.

"Since I'm leaving here tomorrow, I'm going to see what's going on outside?" Liang Yuan said stubbornly.

"No, you can't go."

"I'll just look in the corridors, and never go inside the Winter Palace." Liang Yuan assured.

Tang Feng was helpless, so he had to take a flashlight, and Liang Yuan gently opened the door of the office, the two looked at the door along the crack in the door, the corridor was dark, no abnormality was found, Liang Yuan boldly pushed open the door, flashed to the corridor, Tang Feng hurriedly followed, the two turned around, came to the wide corridor leading to the Winter Palace, Liang Yuan involuntarily walked towards the door leading to the Winter Palace, Tang Feng wanted to hold Liang Yuan, but Liang Yuan had quietly come to the door.

Liang Yuan stretched out his hand and pushed the door in front of him, "Be careful, it will be bad if you touch the alarm device!" Tang Feng reminded Liang Yuan in a low voice. Liang Yuan couldn't push the door, she pushed it harder, but the door still didn't move, "It seems that the door is indeed locked tonight." Liang Yuan said softly.

Tang Feng also pushed the door in front of him hard, and the heavy gate did not move at all! Tang Feng nodded, "Indeed, as Ji Moshen said, this gate is locked at night. ”

"But how could we have entered this gate last night?"

"Maybe they forgot to lock the door."

"Tymoshin doesn't think so!"

"Anything can happen."

The two turned their heads and walked back, Tang Feng still didn't forget to push the doors on both sides of the corridor that looked exactly the same, just like last night, the doors were locked, but just when Tang Feng thought that he would not find anything again, he gently pushed it, and inadvertently, pushed open another door......

Tang Feng was shocked in his heart, he was hesitating whether to go in, Liang Yuan had already stepped into the dark space behind the door, Tang Feng had to follow in, he used the flashlight in his hand to take a rough look here, this is a room that is extremely similar to Ji Moshen's office, looking at the furnishings of the room, it should also be an office.

"Let's get out of here, this is an office." Tang Feng urged Liang Yuan.

"There's no alarm here, what are you afraid of? Let me see again! Liang Yuan became bold at this time, and he didn't care.

Liang Yuan circled around this office, returned to Tang Feng's side, and said: "It's very similar to Ji Moshen's office, that is, there is a broken bookcase in front of that wall, and the bookcase is full of books, all of which are Russian books, I can't read it, there is a very luxurious fireplace behind the bookcase, but unfortunately it is no longer used, and my home will have such a luxurious fireplace in the future." ”

"Luxury fireplace? Who's still using that thing now, you see it's all heating here! Tang Feng was puzzled.

"It's really uncultured! There is no mood at all. Liang Yuan glared at Tang Feng, but her attention was quickly attracted by a laptop on the desk, she sat down at the desk, opened the laptop gently, Tang Feng shook his head and said, "That's someone else's thing, let's not move." ”

"I'm here to see if we can get online, and if we can, we might be able to talk to ......," Liang Yuan was already discouraged as she was disappointed to find that the laptop had a password.

"Can you unlock the password of this computer?" Liang Yuan turned around and asked Tang Feng.

"I'm not a computer guy." Tang Feng shrugged.

"If only Zhao Yong were here, I have seen him easily enter other people's computer systems, no matter how complex the computer is, he can do it in only a few tens of seconds; Dr. Xu also has this ability, and he is also a computer whiz. Liang Yuan said to herself.

"It's a pity they're not there! Let's get out of here! Tang Feng urged Liang Yuan a little anxiously.

Liang Yuan closed the laptop as it was, and followed Tang Feng out of the office stupidly. The two returned to Timoshin's office, closed the door, and Liang Yuan smiled: "It seems that the Russians have a habit of forgetting to lock the door." ”

Tang Feng lowered his head and was silent, as if he didn't hear what Liang Yuan was saying, "What are you thinking?" Liang Yuan patted Tang Feng and asked.

"I'm thinking about Han Jiang, if he has fallen into the hands of Ilyugin, or if something else happens, it will be futile for the two of us to stay in Petersburg, and it will be impossible for the two of us to complete the original mission."

"You want to go back to China?"

"It seems that this is the only way." Tang Feng said in frustration.

The two of them stopped talking, lying on the sofa thinking about their own thoughts, when the day was bright, Ji Moshen came to the office with some food, Tang Feng wanted to tell Ji Moshen about last night, and also said about preparing to leave, but Ji Moshen only listened for a while, and then said to Tang Feng: "Tang Feng, I think you two are really hallucinating, or sleepwalking again." ”

Tang Feng wanted to refute, but before Ji Moshen could speak, he said: "Tang Feng, I'm very busy today, I may not have time to accompany you, you two stay here, I will bring you food." ”

Throughout the day, Ji Moshen was really busy, and it wasn't until he was about to get off work that Ji Moshen came to the office, and he brought a lot of food, Tang Feng was embarrassed to pay Ji Moshen, but Ji Moshen insisted on not accepting.

Tang Feng no longer told Ji Moshen about last night, but directly submitted his resignation to him. Ji Moshen thought for a while, and asked Tang Feng: "Have you figured out where to go?" ”

Tang Feng shook his head and replied, "I haven't thought about it yet, but I can't trouble you here anymore." After a pause, Tang Feng said again: "It's really not good, I have to go back to China first." ”

"Returning home? Well, I'm not going to keep you any longer, and you'll stay here tonight for the night, and I'll pick you up before dawn tomorrow morning. Tymoshin said.

Tang Feng listened to Ji Moshen's arrangement, looked at Liang Yuan, and then nodded, "Okay, just do what you say." ”

Ji Moshen patted Tang Feng on the shoulder and advised: "Then you have a good night's sleep here, and I will pick you up before dawn tomorrow, remember, don't go out of this door." ”

After speaking, Timoshen left the office, and the dark curtain fell early again on this city near the Arctic Circle, the pedestrians on the street were in a hurry, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan had dinner, and had nothing to do in Timoshen's office, so they could only lie on the sofa again, waiting for the dawn of tomorrow.

Tang Feng and Liang Yuan both fell asleep, and Liang Yuan had a slight smile on the corner of her mouth, because she dreamed of her mother in her dream, and dreamed that her mother took her to play and play when she was a child, teach herself to read, and memorize Tang poems......

And Tang Feng's expression was painful and distorted, and he also had a dream, a long, terrible nightmare.

……

In a damp and dark tunnel, Tang Feng was groping with Han Jiang, struggling forward, in front of them, a little ghost light flashed, the ghost light was sometimes faint, sometimes bright, sometimes distant, sometimes very close to them, Tang Feng and Han Jiang were chasing closely in the tunnel, Tang Feng didn't know why? Why did he want to pursue this ghostly light, it seemed that a mysterious force was attracting him, there was no end in sight to the tunnel, the more Tang Feng and Han Jiang stepped up to chase that ghostly light, the farther away and unreachable it was from them.

Han Jiang had lost his patience, he took out his pistol and fired two shots at that little ghost, "Bang! Bang! "Two dull gunshots, a terrible echo through the dark and silent tunnel; Han Jiang's marksmanship was excellent, and after the gunshot, the ghost light suddenly disappeared, but only a moment later, the ghost light flickered again in the dark and long tunnel.

"Why are we chasing it?" Tang Feng asked Han Jiang loudly.

"I don't know, but I know it's my mission, my mission." Han Jiang gasped.

"What will be the end of the tunnel?" Tang Feng asked loudly again.

"I don't know either, but I know you'll only know what's at the end of the tunnel until we get there."

Finally, Tang Feng and Han Jiang came to the end of the tunnel, this is a huge, dark space, that little bit of light suddenly disappeared, just when Tang Feng and Han Jiang were surprised, the surrounding lights suddenly brightened, they looked around, and found that they were in a splendid palace, gilded walls, gilded pillars, ceilings painted with all kinds of strange patterns, and under their feet were marble and piebald stone paved floor tiles.

Tang Feng and Han Jiang looked towards the center of the palace, where there was a high altar, on which stood a man in a white robe, who had his back to them, "White ghost? Tang Feng and Han Jiang's mouths muttered to themselves.

The ghost slowly turned around and looked at Tang Feng and Han Jiang in the audience, Tang Feng saw the ghost's face clearly, no, it was not a ghost, it was a fatherly and kind face! Could this be the ghost he was looking for? Tang Feng couldn't believe it, he took a step back and looked up at the Shentai in front of him.

"You're welcome here." The man in the white robe finally spoke.

"What is this place?" Tang Feng asked boldly.

"This is the House of Ghosts!" The voice was loud and majestic.

"Ghost House?" This is clearly a palace! Tang Feng was puzzled.

"All right, young man, you are here as the only two survivors, and you have the right to walk up to this altar, come, my child." That voice was unmistakable.

Tang Feng and Han Jiang walked onto the altar with heavy steps like a demon, Tang Feng felt his heart hit hard every time he took a step, he had never heard his heartbeat so clearly, it seemed that everything around him had stood still...... He and Han Jiang walked up to this altar one after the other.

"Who are you?" Tang Feng desperately wanted to know who the strangely dressed white robed person in front of him was.

But the white-robed person on the other side smiled and didn't answer, just looked at Tang Feng and Han Jiang, and suddenly, Tang Feng felt the divine platform under his feet shake violently, "Earthquake?" Tang Feng looked down in horror, and he suddenly found that the ground below was originally paved with large marble and piebald stones, and the floor tiles had been pried up, and from under the floor tiles, thousands of black, fat rats came out, and the army of rats quickly occupied the ground of the palace; And, those rats began to climb up along the walls and pillars of the palace, the pillars and walls that were originally shining with golden light, wherever the army of rats passed, in an instant, turned into nothing, the golden palace began to tremble, slowly, slowly, the walls of the palace, the ground, turned into dirty, damp sewer pipes, the whole palace went black, and when Tang Feng and Han Jiang turned around, the person in the white robe who was originally standing on the altar was gone! No! Tang Feng is now beginning to believe that he is not a human at all, but a ghost!

Tang Feng felt that the Shentai under his feet was trembling, thousands of mice began to climb up along the base of the Shentai, Han Jiang took out a pistol and shot under the stage, but everything was to no avail, seeing that those rats were about to climb onto the Shentai and devour the entire Shentai, suddenly, Tang Feng and the Shentai at the feet of Han Jiang turned into a pile of rubble in an instant, Tang Feng kicked in the air as if he was kicked in the air, screaming, falling from the high Shentai, and below was a sea of black mice.

……

"Ahh A ghost house? Sewer pipes? No! He recognized that he was still in Ji Moshen's office, and the heating in the office had stopped heating for some time, and the room temperature had dropped sharply, but Tang Feng was so shocked by the nightmare just now that he broke out in a cold sweat, he wiped the fine sweat on his forehead, turned around and saw that Liang Yuan was not on the sofa next to him, and when he turned around again, Tang Feng suddenly found that the door of the office was actually hidden, how could the door open? Tang Feng turned on the flashlight, but he didn't see Liang Yuan in the office, Tang Feng's heart sank suddenly, and the secret saying was not good, Liang Yuan must have run out again.

Tang Feng rushed out of the door desperately, turned a corner, and collided with a black shadow, this is Liang Yuan's soft body, Tang Feng hugged the black shadow in front of him, and asked softly: "Why did you run out again?" ”

"I ...... I heard that strange noise again, and I came out to find out, and I ...... I saw that ghost! The ghost of the queen is not hidden! Liang Yuan, who was shocked, trembled a little.

"What? Did you see that white ghost last time? Where is it? Tang Feng couldn't believe it.

"Right here, right in this big corridor, I see...... I saw the ghost enter through this gate. Liang Yuan said and pointed to the beautiful door at the end of the corridor in a panic.

"The door is unlocked?"

"I don't know, I see it anyway...... When I saw the ghost go in, I didn't dare to follow it, and I ran back in fright, and it was crashing into you. ”

Found a ghost here? It seems that the ghost is not just in the China Pavilion? Tang Feng thought about the whole incident quickly, and finally he decided to enter the Winter Palace again and find out, because this was his last chance in Petersburg.

"Follow me!" Saying that, Tang Feng pulled Liang Yuan towards the exquisite door, and when he came to the door, Tang Feng stretched out his right hand trembling slightly, and gently pushed the heavy and exquisite door in front of him, the door was really unlocked, and it opened with a light push, Tang Feng didn't dare to turn on the flashlight, he pulled Liang Yuan, and carefully walked into the dark palace......

Or the exhibition hall full of easels I saw the night before, Tang Feng pulled Liang Yuan to wander between the rows of easels, they had no intention of appreciating the masterpieces of these masters, because the ghost would flash in front of them again at some point, when Tang Feng and Liang Yuan turned a row of easels, suddenly, the white shadow in front of them flashed, disappeared into another exhibition hall, Tang Feng didn't know how his legs were already weak, in the dark, there seemed to be a force guiding him and Liang Yuan, and followed into another exhibition hall.

With his memory, Tang Feng found that this was also the exhibition hall he had been to last time, he and Liang Yuan came to the center of the exhibition hall, looked around, it was pitch black, dead silence, and the white ghost was missing, Tang Feng couldn't help but turn on the flashlight, at this moment, he needed a little light, even a little faint light.

Tang Feng pulled Liang Yuan into an exhibition hall again, it was still dark and dead silent, and then, another one, they walked through the empty exhibition halls, everything seemed to be the same as before, and there was no trace of the ghost again, maybe it was really a ghost, it was hidden in the air beside him, Tang Feng was suspicious, and came to a large staircase, which was the staircase leading to the third floor, Tang Feng looked at Liang Yuan, the eyes seemed to be asking, Liang Yuan nodded slightly at Tang Feng, and the two walked up to the third floor together.

The two of them soon came to the Chinese pavilion with the Western Xia cultural relics, Tang Feng walked to the display case, and used a flashlight to shine on the display case, and he saw the head of the Buddha Lushena again. "The Buddha statue is still there?" Tang Feng muttered to himself.

"I'm so scared." Liang Yuan said tremblingly.

"Afraid of what?"

"I'm afraid that the ghost of the queen will come out of the Buddha statue again." When Liang Yuan spoke, he grabbed Tang Feng's arm tightly.

"Don't worry, what ghosts are there in this world? Even if the queen's skull is really still in the Buddha statue, you see, isn't she good? Tang Feng tried his best to keep his composure.

"But I'm still scared!"

"Aren't you coming in? Now I'm scared again. ”

"I'm just scared of this showroom, it always gives me a bad feeling." Liang Yuan explained tremblingly.

"Then let's get out of here!"

Liang Yuan nodded, so, the two walked out of the Chinese Pavilion, Tang Feng relied on his memory, along the corridor on the third floor, towards the stairs, suddenly, in the silent Winter Palace, they heard a voice......

5

It was a man's voice, English, medium speed, the man tried his best to lower his voice, but Tang Feng and Liang Yuan still heard the staccato voice: "We can't wait any longer, I'm almost sure now that the ghost is that old guy,...... Right! It's him, my teacher, he's not dead! He must have found out about us. …… I went to the basement yesterday to check, and the wall that we blocked was knocked on again,...... Yes, I'm 100% sure that he's back, he's been living in the sewers, and now he's back in the Winter Palace, maybe he's by my side at the moment...... So, we can't wait any longer! Stephen, you immediately take someone to that place to pick up the jade interstitial, go as originally planned, I'll solve this matter, and we'll see you in New York. ”

Tang Feng and Liang Yuan were stunned after hearing this, and they both heard this voice almost at the same time...... It was Ji Moshen's voice, Tang Feng couldn't believe all this, he felt that he was caught in a huge conspiracy, and he couldn't extricate himself, he glanced at Liang Yuan, and Liang Yuan muttered in his mouth: "Ji Moshen and Stephen are in the same group?" ”

Tang Feng's brain was all messed up, at this time, he only had one thought, hurry up and leave here, leave this terrible and terrifying palace, but as soon as he pulled Liang Yuan forward, a black shadow flashed out and blocked in front of them, the person and Tang Feng kept a distance of six or seven meters, and the whole person was buried in the shadows, although he couldn't see the person's face clearly, but Tang Feng immediately thought of Ji Moshen, the black shadow moved two steps forward, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan involuntarily took two steps back, just like that, Every time the black shadow took a step forward, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan took a step back, and finally, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan leaned against a wall behind their backs, and they had no way to retreat......

"Who are you?" Tang Feng had the courage to roar at the black shadow.

"My friend, why don't you even know me?" In the darkness, Tymoshen's voice was heard, and his Chinese was still standard and fluent.

"You...... What do you want? Liang Yuan questioned Ji Moshen.

"Don't be afraid, my friend, tell me, what did you just hear?"

"We didn't hear anything." Tang Feng replied loudly.

"Really? But I don't think so, you two are so disobedient, I let you stay in the office, but you have to run out, then it's no wonder to me. With that, Tymoshin pulled out a pistol with a *.

"Yes, we all heard, you scoundrel, you and Stephen are in a gang, and you stole the original jade insert in the Winter Palace, right? And also...... And the jade insert in the black-headed stone room is also in your hand! Liang Yuan bluntly questioned Ji Moshen.

Timoshen sneered and said, "I did it, I and Stephen are indeed in the same group, but I am different from them, I am a scholar, I do all this not to get any treasure, I am for my research, in order to find the legendary Hanhai Mi City, in that way, I can go down in history." Ha...... Haha......"

Ji Moshen's laughter was not loud, but it shook the chandelier in the corridor and shook slightly, Tang Feng saw that his face had been completely torn and there was nothing to hide, so he asked Ji Moshen again: "Then why do you want to take us in?" ”

"Tang Feng, I said that I am a scholar, I am not Stephen's gang of Jiangyang thieves, to tell you the truth, I knew who you were from the beginning, including your true identity and the purpose of coming to Petersburg, but I don't want to kill you, I cherish your talent, in the words of you Chinese, this is probably called 'sympathy'!" There is another purpose, which is to unlock the secret of the jade interstitial, I need your help, and I hope you can cooperate with us. But now that things have changed for us, I have to give up everything here and get out of Petersburg, and even then, I don't want your life, I want Stephen's men to take you away, and then I can slowly convince you. ”

"You're delusional, I'm not going to cooperate with you." Tang Feng roared.

"As long as you come with me, I'll have a way. It's a pity that you two broke into the Winter Palace again, and I had to change my mind, Tang Feng, and this beautiful girl, please forgive me, don't blame me, blame that ghost if you want to blame. With that, Ji Moshen pointed his guns at Tang Feng and Liang Yuan.

This is an exhibition hall full of all kinds of sculptures, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan were forced to the wall by Ji Moshen, Liang Yuan had closed her eyes, she snuggled tightly next to Tang Feng, just waiting for the gunshot...... Tang Feng stared at Timoshen in the dark, he hadn't given up the last resistance, he found that there were dozens of huge sculptures not far from them, now, he only needed a small chance, just a few seconds, to escape the muzzle of Timoshen's guns, escape behind those sculptures and hide, in such a dark palace, they might be able to get rid of Timoshen's pursuit, but where is this opportunity?

Ji Moshen's gun rang out, but at this moment, a white shadow flashed behind Ji Moshen, and then, a white plaster statue three meters high next to Ji Moshen suddenly smashed towards Ji Moshen, Ji Moshen saw that the situation was not good, hurriedly dodged, and the bullet that shot out hit the wall next to Tang Feng. In a hurry, before Ji Moshen had time to fire another shot, Tang Feng took advantage of the situation and pulled the overwhelmed Liang Yuan to hide behind a statue.

The frightened Tang Feng and Liang Yuan hid behind a tall statue, and the two held their breath, for fear that Ji Moshen would find them, "Tang Feng, don't hide anymore, I have already seen you!" Tymoshin whispered in the empty palace, and at the same time, tiptoeing close to a statue with his gun in hand, he turned sharply, and there was nothing behind the statue; He approached a statue again, and as soon as he turned around, suddenly, Tang Feng pulled Liang Yuan and flashed behind another statue not far away, seeing this, Ji Moshen turned around and pulled the trigger, the bullet hit the base of a sculpture, in the darkness, a dazzling fire burst out, Ji Moshen wanted to shoot again, but Tang Feng and Liang Yuan were gone.

"Tang Feng, you come out, let's have a good talk, you can't escape like this, as long as you go with me, I can guarantee your safety." Ji Moshen's low roar echoed in the empty palace, Liang Yuan felt that her heart was about to jump out, she opened her mouth and gasped for breath, Tang Feng was afraid that Liang Yuan would make a sound, so he pressed Liang Yuan's mouth with his left hand, and held the flashlight tightly with his right hand, he was ready for the worst.

In the dark environment, Timoshen couldn't find Tang Feng one by one behind so many statues, he was more worried about the fleeting white ghost just now, he paced back and forth on the floor of the exhibition hall, messy steps, showing the restlessness in his heart, Tang Feng held his breath and stared, judging his approximate location according to Timoshen's footsteps, and finally, Timoshen's footsteps stopped, seemed to stop in the center of the palace, and then, Timoshen's voice came, the voice of Stephen: "Stephen, That ghost attacked me just now, he was still in the Winter Palace, and Tang Feng's kid also ran away, you immediately bring someone to the Winter Palace,...... Okay, we'll see you in the monitoring room on the first floor in ten minutes! ”

After speaking, Ji Moshen strode towards the outside of the exhibition hall, listening to Ji Moshen's footsteps gradually moving away, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan's hanging hearts slowly let go.

When Tymoshen arrived at the monitoring room on the first floor, Stephen and Fanny had already taken control of the place with someone, and all eight security guards in the monitoring room were knocked unconscious by Stephen and locked in another office.

"How did you make this so bad?" Stephen confronted him with a face when he saw Tymoshen.

"It's all my carelessness, I didn't expect that damn ghost to actually enter the Winter Palace, if Tang Feng hadn't discovered that ghost, I wouldn't know yet, but, okay, I finally know where that notebook is hiding now, and when that notebook arrives, let's leave here with the jade interstitial."

"Where is the notebook?" Stephen asked.

"The priority now is not this, the priority now is to quickly cut off the power supply to the alarm device of the Winter Palace." Tymoshen said as he looked at a row of electric switches in the monitoring room.

"But there's a row of electric switches here, which one should be pulled?" Stephen stared at the switch, which was painted in several different colors.

Ji Moshen's right hand trembled slightly, he touched the red switch, and then touched the orange switch, "Let me think about it, I have studied this before, and it should still be this." ”

Ji Moshen made up his mind and pulled up the red electric switch, and suddenly, the entire Winter Palace, including the monitoring equipment outside the Winter Palace, was cut off. Timoshen wiped the fine sweat oozing from his forehead, and said to Stephen: "Now the Winter Palace is our world, but this is temporary, I can only guarantee to control the situation for half an hour, it's up to you now, you have to be fast, Tang Feng is with that little girl, they have no weapons, you should have seen it, and that ghost, don't let any of them go!" However, you must remember not to shoot lightly if you are not sure. ”

"Okay, what about you?"

"I'll go find that notebook, and I'll see you here when it's done."

After Tymoshen finished speaking, Stephen left four men in black to guard the monitoring room, and then led the six men in black with Fanny to the second floor, Tymoshen looked at his watch, it was early in the morning, time was running out, he turned on the flashlight and walked towards another staircase.

Tang Feng and Liang Yuan saw Ji Moshen leave the exhibition hall, so they breathed a sigh of relief, Tang Feng let go of the hand that had been covering Liang Yuan's mouth, Liang Yuan gasped for breath, and complained: "You want to cover me to death!" What kind of behavior are you? ”

"What behavior?"

"You are shamelessly murdering your relatives......" Liang Yuan said to his lips and swallowed back.

"I'm afraid you'll be exposed." Tang Feng said and poked his head out to look at the center of the exhibition hall, and Ji Moshen had indeed left here.

"I really didn't expect Tymoshen to be in the same league as Stephen."

"Did you see the ghost that knocked down the statue just now?" Tang Feng suddenly asked Liang Yuan.

"I kept my eyes closed and didn't see anything, you mean the ghost saved us."

"Yes, it was the ghost who saved us."

"Okay, let's not talk about this yet, Stephen will be bringing someone in there soon, what should we do now?"

"They must have occupied the monitoring room and the gate on the first floor, and we have two ways now, one is to find a place to hide and wait for someone to come and rescue us; There is another way, which is to escape through the gate where we came, and in any case, we are all lucky today. Tang Feng said.

"Hiding and waiting for someone to save you is too passive, it's not my personality." Liang Yuan said.

"Then get out." Before Liang Yuan could react, Tang Feng pulled Liang Yuan up and rushed out of the empty exhibition hall.

Stephen and Fanny led three people separately, searching for Tang Feng and Liang Yuan in the Winter Palace, as well as the ghost that would flash out at some point. Stephen took three people, wearing infrared night vision devices, holding * assault rifles with *, and soon came to a staircase leading to the third floor, at this time, Tang Feng pulled Liang Yuan and rushed down from the third floor, Stephen saw this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and greeted loudly: "Tang Feng, let's meet again, are you okay?" ”

Tang Feng and Liang Yuan were shocked into a cold sweat, they didn't have time to take a look, they turned around and ran towards the third floor again, and the three * fired a salvo, so Tang Feng reacted quickly, and the bullets hit the walls and stairs scattered, without hurting Tang Feng and Liang Yuan. Stephen waved his hand, and the three men in black rushed up to the third floor together, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan ran desperately in the exhibition halls and corridors of the Winter Palace, accompanied by Liang Yuan's screams, and bullets flew from time to time behind, Tang Feng suddenly remembered the night before yesterday, remembering that day he also pulled Liang Yuan in the Winter Palace like this, that day was to avoid the pursuit of the ghost, but today the ghost saved his life, at this moment, the real threat finally appeared, they are a hundred times more terrible than the ghost.

Palaces, corridors, in the dark, Tang Feng couldn't tell the direction at all, he pulled Liang Yuan to run in the Winter Palace randomly, they finally came to a staircase again, will there be Stephen's people below, holding guns, waiting for them, Tang Feng hesitated, but the chasing soldiers behind him were approaching, and he was no longer allowed to think about it, Tang Feng turned his heart sideways, pulled Liang Yuan and ran down the stairs, there was no one downstairs, there was a dead silence, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan walked through the three exhibition halls, they ran into an exhibition hall full of easels, Tang Feng recognized this as the first exhibition hall they had entered, and the beautiful gate leading to the outside was in front of it.

Thinking of this, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan glanced at each other, and seemed to see a glimmer of light, but when they quickly ran to the exquisite gate, the two of them were dumbfounded, the gate was locked, Tang Feng slammed into the gate with his body, and the heavy gate didn't move, "It's over, we can't get out!" Liang Yuan was so anxious that she was about to cry.

Tang Feng was at a loss for a while, there was a messy footsteps behind him, Tang Feng turned his head, in the dark, he clearly heard the footsteps of Stephen and the three men in black, Tang Feng instinctively pulled Liang Yuan to hide behind a row of easels, Stephen led people to the door, pushed the door, the door did not move, Stephen ordered: "The door is locked by Tymoshen, those two boys are still here, they can't run away, search!" ”

As soon as Stephen's voice fell, Tang Feng took advantage of his unpreparedness, pulled Liang Yuan around a few rows of easels, and rushed out of the exhibition hall, Stephen heard the footsteps, turned around and looked, Tang Feng had disappeared with Liang Yuan at the door of the exhibition hall, Stephen led people out of the exhibition hall quickly, outside, one end is another exhibition hall, the other side is a corridor, Stephen pointed to the corridor, he was sure that Tang Feng fled along the corridor, Stephen ran to the end of the corridor, the corridor turned, it was a staircase leading to the first floor, Stephen scolded in his heart: "I want to run from the first floor, Look for death! ”

８

When he came to the first floor, there was still a wide corridor in front of Stephen, and he saw Tang Feng and Liang Yuan running in front. Knowing that his time was running out, Stephen waved his hand vigorously and motioned for his men to hurry up and grab Tang Feng and Liang Yuan.

Tang Feng glanced back, Stephen actually led someone to catch up again, he instinctively quickened his pace, but Tang Feng was even less familiar with the situation on the first floor, there was another turn in front of him, what would be the place to turn around? Just when Tang Feng was full of suspicion, Fanny took another group of black-clothed people from the corridor to turn around, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan were so shocked that they hurriedly stopped, they stood in a daze on this wide corridor, one end was Stephen, the other was Fanny, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan were already cornered, could they just be tied up?

No! There is still a glimmer of life, there are several exhibition halls on both sides of the corridor, Tang Feng saw that he was facing an exhibition hall, he hesitated slightly, and then pulled Liang Yuan and rushed into this exhibition hall, this is his only choice now, the only life! But after Stephen and Fanny joined forces, they quickly followed up with this room, which was a long and narrow exhibition hall, in which there were neither huge sculptures nor rows of easels to hide, only a few low display cases, and they were completely exposed to this narrow exhibition hall, they had to run, only to run forward, but what would be in front of the darkness? ……

There is a black wall ahead, how can it be a black wall? It's really a strange wall, could it be that he has hallucinated, Tang Feng clearly saw the black wall, behind him, Stephen was approaching, Tang Feng knew that his end was coming, he closed his eyes in despair, but he couldn't stop the pace under his feet, at this moment when his life was hanging by a thread, Tang Feng and Liang Yuan ran to the end of the wall, and they happened to hit a person.

Tang Feng opened his eyes in shock, and in the darkness, he saw a burly strong man standing in front of him, and the man was also shocked to call out Tang Feng's name: "Tang Feng, is it you?" Liang Yuan, when did you come? ”

It was Han Jiang's voice, Tang Feng suddenly came to his senses, he saw Han Jiang, Yelena, Makarov, and Xu Renyu, "It's me, Stephen is chasing us behind...... Ji Moshen was with him, and we also saw ghosts......" Tang Feng said these words intermittently, and collapsed to the ground.

Han Jiang immediately understood what was going on, he pulled out his gun and ordered everyone: "Doctor, old horse, you take care of Tang Feng and Liang Yuan, Yelena, let's go." ”

After speaking, Han Jiang and Yelena were one left and one right, two pistols, two sharpshooters, pulled the trigger at the same time, and shot at Stephen and the others, the two men in black were defenseless and fell to the ground in response, Stephen and Fanny faced this sudden scene, at a loss, he didn't know how many reinforcements Han Jiang came, he was suspicious, and hurriedly led people out of this exhibition hall. Han Jiang and Yelena completely overwhelmed Stephen in momentum, and they pressed forward step by step, firing all the bullets in the pistol in one go, and the two came to the black-clothed man who was killed, picked up two M4A1 assault rifles, and attacked Stephen who was entrenched in the corridor again.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Stephen looked at his watch and said to Fanny, "We don't have enough time, and I don't know how many people they came, so let's get out quickly!" ”

"Regardless of Tymoshin?"

"He'll have a way to get out."

After Stephen finished speaking, he made a gesture to the other men in black, one of whom smashed a window and jumped out, and the other men in black followed suit!

Han Jiang and Yelena rushed to the corridor outside, seeing that Stephen had fled, Han Jiang was about to chase after them, but Yelena said, "Don't chase them, hurry up to the monitoring room." ”

Two minutes later, Han Jiang and Yelena suddenly appeared at the door of the monitoring room, and the four black-clothed people guarding here still wanted to resist, but they were all killed by Han Jiang and Yelena in the monitoring room. The blood of the man in black splashed on the computer screen and also on the electric switch, Yelena hesitated for a moment in front of the row of different colored electric switches, and finally pressed the red electric switch, and then pressed the electric switch for lighting, and suddenly, the Winter Palace was as bright as day, and the alarm bell was loud. Five minutes later, outside the Winter Palace, dozens of policemen and dozens of agents led by Ivanov appeared on the Hermitage Square.
