Chapter 413: County Lord's Mansion
As the night grew late, General Wu looked up at the sky, said "almost", picked up the boat artemisia on the splint, supported the boat and slowly left the center of the river, turned to the side of the tributary, passed deep and secluded, and went down the river.
The moon that night was more beautiful than usual, and the remnants of the hook were full of full moons, and the moonlight sprinkled on people's bodies, as if wisps of silver thread caressed the whole body, making people feel comfortable at the same time, but also full of infinite fantasy.
Wushan County is very quiet, as the core of the entire Wushan power hub location, along the way you can't even see a boat and people patrolling the river, along the coast are all scattered scattered in the thousands of flowers of the houses, some houses are still lit, through the window, floated out of a burst of pipa and zither chords continue to float out, the silent night, only add a bit of gloom.
But further on, clusters of torches suddenly lit up the night sky in front of them, and the mighty ships swayed back and forth, blocking the entire river in an airtight air.
"I'll go to the county lord's mansion in front, don't speak, just listen to me."
General Wu admonished, the ship had already reached the blockade line, those soldiers knew General Wu, but they still stopped and asked: "Your Excellency has gone to Lei Ze, and you will return tomorrow, if General Wu has something to do, you should wait for your Excellency to return to his home and report it." ”
"Do you want to wait for him to come back?"
Before General Wu finished speaking, he heard the sound of "tuk", and the boat artemisia in his hand had already swept sideways on the body of the soldier blocking the road, and the person hit the person, and the sound of falling into the water suddenly became everywhere.
"What kind of dog thing, Lao Tzu's boat dares to stop it, and I don't look at who beat this Wushan County."
With that, he propped up the boat as if nothing had happened, and under the timid gaze of the people around him, he passed through the defense line and slowly sailed towards a small island standing in the center of the river in front of him.
The island is secluded and isolated, floating quietly on the water, the island is full of exotic flowers and plants, emitting a faint white light in the moonlight, and through this sea of flowers, is a blue brick and green tile house standing in the middle, at the gate of the courtyard stands two maids with lanterns, and there are three words on the door plaque: county lord's mansion.
"This is where Wei Junyao has always lived."
I couldn't help but sigh when I saw it, and when General Wu took me to the door, I saw that the two maids had changed their previous arrogance, and said in a low voice: "Wu Qingshan has an urgent military affairs report, and I hope that the two sisters will be accommodating, and I will bother to open the courtyard door." ”
The lantern maid nodded at first, but then looked at me again, and a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes, but she didn't say much, and pushed open the courtyard door directly, and let the two of us walk in.
"Who are those two women, and why do you seem to be so afraid of her?"
Entering the courtyard, go forward to a vast flower forest, colorless, with no end in sight, only a quiet path winding in the middle.
General Wu sighed and said: "These two girls are the princess's former curtain maids, and their status in Wushan is very high, and I have received a lot of favors from them, but after the ghost baby came, they were demoted to night watchmen, and they watched the boundless night all day long, and there was no end." ”
Walking through the flower forest, you can vaguely see rows of attics in front of you, but when you get here, there are many soldiers who patrol the night, and the rows and rows go around, and there is almost no gap.
"After the ghost baby left, all the military affairs were handed over to the newly cultivated general of the town, and after this is the military machine pavilion, when I go in to report the military situation to him, I will let you guard outside, and then it's all up to you, I can't help you."
Listening to the seriousness of General Wu's words, I nodded solemnly, and at the same time calmed down and looked around, several extremely terrifying breaths suddenly appeared around the courtyard, I roughly counted, except for those slightly weaker breaths, the strongest has a total of seven people, it is estimated that it is the seven blind people in the "Seven Killing Array" that General Wu said before.
And one of them came from the flower forest behind him.
I was shocked into a cold sweat, and just reached out and touched the sword behind me, but a few soldiers immediately came in front of me, and saluted: "Please ask the general and your Excellency to hand over their weapons." ”
I heard the words and looked at General Wu, I saw that he nodded and took out the saber on his waist and handed it over, I only need to hand over the black sword, turn around and go around the bamboo towers, in the back, is an independent, lit three-story attic, the plaque on the attic is clearly seen in the moonlight, and it is written "Military Aircraft Pavilion" three big characters.
After General Wu knocked on the door and entered, he left me alone to guard there, looking at the soldiers coming and going in front of me, I focused my eyes and found that in each patrol column, there was an extraordinary master hidden in it, and these people were very strong, and any one of them could cause me a lot of trouble.
Taking a deep breath, I still have to think of a complete solution when I am unarmed.
The county lord's mansion was heavily guarded, and he stood at the door for a while, not finding any breakthrough at all, and calculated the time, the time for the change of guard in the Linglong Pavilion that General Wu said was about to come, and he couldn't help but secretly clench his fists in his hands, but at this time, a row of ten night guards walked out of the corner, and the soldier with a strong aura walked in the middle of the chest, and a faint white "Wu" word was printed on the chest.
My heart trembled, but looking at the soldiers walking in front of him, I hesitated for a while, but seeing that this person was about to flash in front of me, I gritted my teeth, "oops", and directly lay on the ground with my buttocks, and began to roll all over the ground.
In the process of rolling, I glanced at the people in front of me with my spare eyes, and found that the others ignored me, only the person in the middle raised his hand, stopped the team, looked at me and said, "It is forbidden to make loud noises in front of the military aircraft pavilion, carry away!" ”
I was stunned for a moment, and two soldiers came up to me, grabbed my arms and legs, and carried me out of the door.
I was put in the middle of the team and walked forward, and I didn't stop after going around the military aircraft pavilion, I felt that the direction was to the north, looking at the patrols coming and going around me, I kept humming and chirping, until I came to a corner, only to see the man raise his hand and say, "Throw this, continue to patrol the night." ”
As soon as my body was light, I was thrown to the ground casually, I quickly got up, looked up at the back of the departing man, and was about to speak, when I found that a black tower appeared in the line of sight over the corner courtyard wall.
My heart moved, and I continued to hum until the patrol had completely left, and hurriedly looked around, only to find that in the opposite direction of their departure there was a gate closed, and in front of the door stood four guards with knives, and just as I looked at them, four more came directly opposite the gate, and they were replaced and guarded at the door.
The time was just right.
I let out a long sigh of relief, and was in a dark corner, trying to figure out how to meet them, when I saw one of the guards glancing at me, as if intentionally or unintentionally, and then said a few words to two of them, so far away that I couldn't hear what he was saying, but after he finished speaking, the other two nodded, and turned away.
Secretly waiting for the two people to leave, one rushed towards the gate in an instant, the two soldiers saw me coming without any surprise, after looking left and right, they pushed the door open sideways, and whispered: "The attic is open, you only have half an hour, don't go here after you come out, go directly to the back door, someone will send you away!" ”
I nodded heavily, turned around and entered the courtyard, and after hearing the courtyard door being closed, I raised my head, only to see that the whole courtyard was only a seven-story black tower towering, with eaves and paintings, and the construction was magnificent, extremely magnificent.
The most eye-catching, but at the very top of the seven-story Linglong Pavilion, there is a huge black bead emitting a faint glow, horizontal in mid-air, looking quite mysterious and weird.
"This is the seven-story Linglong Pavilion."
I sighed secretly, didn't dare to act rashly, sank down and carefully noticed the smell of the courtyard, and after making sure that there was no one, I sneaked towards the attic gate lightly.
The door of Linglong Pavilion was closed, and with a gentle push of his hand, there was a unique "squeak" sound from the old wood, as if someone was crying complaining, and as the door was pushed open, a slightly chilly wind blew through his neck from the house, and the slightest coldness spread throughout his body, and he couldn't help but shiver.
