Volume 4 The Clash of Light and Darkness One Hundred and Thirty-Six, The Great Escape (I)
Minter slowly lowered the envelope and smiled wryly. It was obviously a trap, why didn't he find out? Was it because he was so distraught when he heard that Jada was going to attack Siko, or was it because he wanted to get the battle plan so much that he ignored all kinds of suspicious places?
That so-called plan, in fact, does not exist at all? It's just a fiction to trick him into taking the bait.
He was silent, waiting for Jada's imminent anger, but also thinking in his heart how to get out.
He could already hear footsteps and weapons clashing outside the door and window, so it seemed that Jada had really prepared heavy troops to entertain him? This is the royal palace, it is not easy to leave, is there any other way than to take the palace gate?
Jada paced slowly, placing the oil lamp on the desk beside him, the burning grease giving off a faint aroma, but neither of the people present was in the mood to smell it at the moment.
Jada asked lightly, "Why don't you speak?" ”
Minter smiled self-deprecatingly, "Now that you've guessed, what else do I have to say?" ”
"So... Are you really a spy sent by another country? It's Easter, right? Jada's face was expressionless, but there was a faint fire in his eyes, "Was it intentional to reunite with me in Mengli?" Because you've been aware of my identity for a long time, do you want to gain my trust and infiltrate our country to find out information?! ”
Minter frowned, "What are these words?" I happened to meet you on other missions, and I never had the idea of coming to Noga until you invited me. Your true identity, at first I was only guessing, but what I really knew was after you asked me to come. ”
"So, or did I bring it on myself? It was I who introduced you, a spy, into our country?! Jada sneered, his expression suddenly grim, "Tell me honestly, what have you done since you came?!" Your Majesty, have you ever done anything wrong?! ”
Mint was a little annoyed by what he said: "Please be fair! I have been in the country of Noga ever since. Just stay by your side almost every day, don't you know what I've done? When have I ever done anything to harm your Noga?! You can see what His Majesty's body was like before, and what it looks like now! How can I assume that I hurt him just because I was sent by another country?! ”
"Could it be that Esther sent you. Is it for you to heal Your Majesty's land?! "Jada's face is colder." No kidding! Noga and Easter have always been hostile places. I don't believe you're so kind! ”
Minter held back his anger. Said calmly: "If Noga is in charge of the overall situation by Prince Mario's faction." A war will be opened against Easte at any time. Therefore, we are willing to help His Majesty regain power. Our two countries... As long as the war place is removed, it is possible. It is still possible to get along amicably. I was given the order to do so. Help you defeat Prince Mario as much as you can. and made King Gale II healthily better. Believe it or not! ”
Jada narrowed her eyes. The face softened a little. But with mockery: "Really? So what are you doing now? Prince Mario is dead. Isn't your mission accomplished? Come to my office in the middle of the night—" he glanced at the envelope. “… Stealing documents. Also helping us? ”
Minter pursed his lips, "If you didn't suddenly have that idea." I'm not going to do that. His Excellency Duke Jeda. Betrayed your trust. I'm sorry. But. Just as you have your responsibilities. I also have my mission. ”
Jada grimaced. Snorted: "In that case." Then there's nothing to say. You're here to stay. Let's see how I laid down Sikodi. Wait until I build our fortress of Nogardi on the plains of Sico. I'll be sure to invite you to the guest place! ”
Minter listened. Just about to say something. But suddenly I felt softness in my body. The body was crooked. My head is also starting to get dizzy. I couldn't help but be shocked. Could it be that someone poisoned it? When?!
He was shocked when he accidentally saw the tips of his blackened fingers. Glancing at the light blue envelope.
Seeing this, Jada smiled: "This is not a magic leaf, but a secret of our Novira-Conkson royal family for generations, even you can't see it, right?" It has no appearance and no taste, and only when used with a special type of oil will make a person lose strength. ”
Minte's eyes quickly looked at the oil lamp he had brought, and he knew that from the moment he entered the door, the net against him had been opened. I was so careless that I didn't notice that the grease burned by this oil lamp was different from what I usually saw.
But... Minter noticed that although he was a little dizzy, his body was also a little soft. Mobile phone easy:. CN collation, but the situation is not serious. And after a long time, the strength began to return. The mind is in a flash. He pretended to be weak and leaned next to the table, but his fingers quietly poked hard into the inconspicuous place on the edge of the table, and a hole appeared in the surface of the mahogany without a sound. He was overjoyed, knowing that it must have worked on the ground that Teacher Sauron had given him to drink, and as soon as his eyes rolled, he still looked poisoned, panting and saying to Jada: "You... You are so despicable! ”
Jada didn't notice it, and pulled the corners of his mouth: "No way, Minter, I have to admit that you are a talent, good skills, and very cunning, I can only increase the amount of weight on you, otherwise I don't know if I can catch you." You'd better be obedient, I don't want to poison you. So saying, he turned and walked to the door, and shouted for the people outside to come in.
The moment he turned, Minter quickly ripped off the silk cord around his neck that had the ring around his neck, and tucked it into the bracer that had been tied around his wrist, and threw it under the table. In the middle of the night, the silk rope of the black sage was inconspicuous, falling silently in the shadows of the ground.
The soldiers rushed in, along with Sargent and Shed, dressed in black as usual, with a sturdy rope in his hand. Minter thought of Jada and Sheed, who were present, their martial arts skills were no worse than his own, and he would definitely not be able to escape under the siege of so many people, so he had to pretend to be weak and fall to the ground, allowing Shedd to tie himself tightly with a thick rope.
As soon as he tied it, Shedd grabbed him by the collar and shoved him out the door. He gritted his teeth and endured, and as soon as he took two steps, Jada stopped him.
Jada walked up to him, pulled his collar, looked at his neck, there was nothing, and snorted coldly: "Are you hiding?" It's okay, I'll take the army out soon, and your intelligence can't be sent. East definitely didn't have time to defend! Then he turned his back and paid no more attention to him.
When Minter was pushed out of the room, he cried out unrelentingly, "Your Excellency Duke Jeda, do you really want to do that?" What's the difference between you and the Prince Mario you hate?! ”
Jada turned a deaf ear, and Shedd got angry and pulled Minter out of the door even harder. Minter said in a loud voice, "Since you are willing not to listen to me. Then I don't have anything to say, please tell your majesty, let him take care of his body, I will stay with the doctor, I must eat every three days, exercise every day, eat more fruit..."He kept talking about Gale II, trying to see if Jada would be moved, but he was disappointed. The other party never looked back.
He didn't see it, and when he left, Jada turned to look in the direction he was leaving. I closed my eyes.
Sargent stepped forward and comforted: "Your Excellency, don't take it to heart, he is just afraid of death." However, he has served as His Majesty's Demon Master for so long, once he leaves, what will happen to His Majesty's condition? ”
"Your Majesty has recovered." Jada waved lightly, motioning for him to leave first.
Sargent stopped talking, thinking that the king might need someone to report the incident, so he turned and went to the king's makeshift bedchamber.
Minter was escorted in the direction of the palace prison, where Prince Lawler had been imprisoned during his lifetime. He didn't expect that he would have this kind of treatment, and smiled. The wrist behind his back turned quietly, and two hard and sharp ice blades had been conjured into his palm.
As soon as he reached the dimly lit place, he released the ice blade and cut the thick rope that bound him, and after a while, he cut to the point where only the outermost layer of rope remained, but he did not dare to continue cutting, for fear that Shedd would find out.
There was a soft shout from the front right, and Shedd frowned. Turning his head, he saw that it was Junia with a sleepy-eyed maid, standing on the steps beside the flowers. Dressed in a thin shawl and with her hair like a waterfall, she had obviously just woken up from her sleep, and asked timidly, "What happened?" I seem to hear the sound of weapons..."Shedd hurriedly took a few steps forward: "It's okay, you go back to sleep first." ”
Junia glanced curiously at the tied Minter, who smiled at her, and Shedd immediately grabbed her shoulder in displeasure. Push her back to her room. He urged the soldiers to take them away.
Minter lowered his head and obediently allowed them to escort him around the corner. Glimpsing the wall ahead, and under the wall there was a large row of green trees and bushes, which was the ideal location, so he cut the last layer of rope, and at the same time, a dozen Xiaoice blades shot out and flew towards the surrounding soldiers.
The soldiers were on guard and were hit squarely, screaming one after another. Mint flew a few more kicks, knocked the rest of the ground down, and then quickly rushed to the bushes, brushed aside the branches, and came under the wall, but kicked a few hard kicks at one of the trees, and swept to the side.
When Shedd arrived, he saw a tree shaking very badly by the wall, so he reported to Jada, who had rushed over to hear the sound: "He must have climbed the tree over the wall to get over there!" That's the road to the harem! ”
Jada had a gloomy face, gritted his teeth and ordered: "Search the entire harem immediately!" Be sure to find someone! ”
Just as Shedd led his soldiers to search the harem, causing pheasants to jump, Minter hid in the former king's bedroom, which had been hit by fire. It was quiet, there was no one, he breathed a sigh of relief, and went back to his room, took out the ice blade to heal the wound on his wrist, and then rested for a while.
The quiet time was short-lived, and when it was about to dawn, Shed, who had found nothing, returned to the front palace to report, and Jada set his sights on the nearest king's bedchamber.
Hearing the sound of footsteps getting closer, Minter woke up, climbed to the window and looked carefully, and saw that Shedd was leading people this way, so he hurriedly turned around and went to the bathroom, climbed up the window, saw the landing point, and jumped down.
He hid all the way to the harem range, and with a white light on the horizon, he caught a glimpse of the white palace not far ahead, which was the original queen mother's residence, so he stopped moving forward.
After the death of the Queen Mother, the palace was left without an owner, but there were too many maids for him to be discovered.
There was a sound of footsteps behind him, and he hurriedly found a big tree to climb up, and hid in the canopy, just like when he had been hiding as a child, and then he saw Jada and a group of soldiers passing under the tree and walking in the direction of the Queen Mother's Palace. He sneered slightly, was Jada confused? Make such a big fuss! If you let people outside know, it will be another storm.
The sun slowly rose in the east, and the smoke that had been filled with the back mountains was thinner by the wind, revealing a deep valley. Minter looked at the valley and his heart moved.
Speaking of when he was a child, he seemed to have jumped off the valley, when he was with his grandfather, what did he use? A piece of cloth and four pieces of rope?
He lightly took out a large cloak and two hemp ropes from the ring, tied the four corners of the cloak with the ends of the hemp rope to make a simple parachute, and then carried it on his shoulder, looked left and right at no one, then clutched the cloak into a ball, jumped down the tree, and ran in the direction of the corridor.
As soon as Jedafu stepped out of the gate of the Queen Mother's Palace, he saw someone running in the direction of the corridor, and when he looked closely, it was Minter, who hurriedly chased after him, shouting: "Stop! ”
Minter listened, ran faster, reached the corridor, let go of the cloak, looked back at Jada again, and smiled slightly: "Goodbye, Lord Duke, in fact, I really hope to be your friend." With that, he jumped and went straight into the valley.
Jada pounced in horror, and saw that he had a piece of cloth hanging from his head, and slowly descended to the bottom of the valley with the wind, and there was no danger at all, and his heart was furious, and he called for the soldiers to take their bows and arrows, and opened their bows and arrows, and shot directly at the thin figure.
Minter turned back and saw this situation, and hurriedly pulled the hemp rope, trying to control the "parachute" to avoid it, but failed to do so, seeing that the arrow shot straight at him, he hurriedly conjured an ice sword, vigorously opened it, and with a shock in his hand, the sword and the arrow fell down the valley together, and then the second arrow came again, only a little off, and as soon as he dodged, the arrow grazed the rope, but the rope on his right shoulder was loosened, and he lost his balance and fell sharply.
Jada watched in amazement as the figure quickly fell into the valley, his hand tightly grasped the iron bow, and after a long while, he ordered: "Immediately send an order to go down, send someone to search in the dense forest of the back mountain valley, and be sure to arrest him back, even if he is dead..." ”
(I would like to forgive you for one thing, I have an important job to do, so from tomorrow until the 15th, the daily update will be reduced to 3,000 words, and I will return to the original word count after that, I'm really sorry.)
