Chapter 12 There is no danger

The palace is heavily guarded, and the patrolling guards are endless, and it is not easy to leave the palace at night, and the journey can be described as thrilling.

If it weren't for Nangong Ling, who was familiar with the layout of the palace, it would be difficult for Jiang Nian to go out alone.

Soon, Jiang Nian and Nangong Ling had already come to the gate of the palace, hiding behind a building, carefully looking ahead.

What caught his eye was one patrol team after another, and the defense was extremely tight, and for a while, Jiang Nian couldn't find a gap to leave.

The palace is surrounded by dozens of meters of high walls, and only the four gates of east, west, north and south can enter, but it is a pity that Jiang Nian has never practiced light skills, and he can't jump over the high wall at all.

What's more, Jiang Nian has to leave with Nangong Ling, which is even more difficult.

"What do we do now? With so many guards guarding, we can't get out! Nangong Ling pulled the corner of Jiang Nian's clothes and asked.

Jiang Nian didn't reply, lowered his head and fell into deep thought, just when Jiang Nian was helpless, an old man pulling a cart not far away attracted Jiang Nian's attention.

"There it is!"

Jiang Nian's eyes flashed, and then he pulled Nangong Ling and rushed towards the old man.

"What...!"

As soon as the old man saw Jiang Nian and Nangong Ling, it was like shouting.

Jiang Nian's eyes were quick, and the long sword was instantly pulled out and put on the old man's neck.

"If you want to live, don't talk too much!"

Jiang Nian said with murderous intent.

The old man quickly closed his mouth and nodded quickly, indicating that he would never say much.

"Okay, now my friend and I will hide in your car, and you can just continue to do what you were supposed to do as if it didn't happen, you know!?" Jiang Nian looked at the old man coldly.

"Got it, hero, I'll do everything you tell me to do!" The old man nodded quickly, but a strange light flashed in his eyes.

"Remember, don't try to play any tricks, I will definitely kill you in the first step before the turmoil breaks out!" Jiang Nian seemed to see the old man's ill intentions and scolded.

"Don't dare, don't dare!"

The old man looked startled and said quickly.

"Let's go!"

Jiang Nian pulled Nangong Ling and hid in the big wooden barrel on the old man's car, and after closing the lid, he said.

"It stinks!"

As soon as she came in, Nangong Ling smelled an extremely pungent stench, and almost vomited the overnight meal.

It turned out that the car was used to haul away the excrement, because the excrement was so smelly and smelled bad, and all of it was generally worked at night.

The cart was pulled by a big donkey, and the cart was very large, with two layers of wooden barrels on it, four on each layer, and Jiang Nian and Nangong Ling were hidden in the large wooden barrels on the left side of the first row of the first floor.

Jiang Nian and Nangong Ling's luck can be said to be very good, they met one with an empty wooden barrel. If the barrels are filled with excrement.

It was going to be overthrown, and it took too long to come and go, and it was easy for the patrolling guards to spot.

"Okay, if you want to get out, just bear with it, this is what you want to come out of yourself." Jiang Nian said.

Nangong Ling pursed her lips, very unhappy, but she also closed her mouth and stopped talking.

The donkey cart moved slowly, and soon came to the door.

"Old man Hong, this is the last car?" The burly-looking captain of the guard glanced at Old Man Hong, and the tone of the two seemed to be quite familiar.

"Yes, it's the last car of the day, and I'll call it a day after pulling it out!" Old man Hong said with a smile.

The captain of the guard patted Old Man Hong on the shoulder and said, "Fortunately! ”

"Misfortune and bitterness." Old man Hong lowered his head and said, "My lord, the time is almost up, I should also go." ”

"Well, you're right, come on, open the door, let go!" The captain of the guard waved his hand.

Jiang Nian and Nangong Ling, who had been staying in the barrel, were relieved and very happy when they heard this.

"Thank you, sir!"

Old man Hong arched his hand. Then he pulled the donkey cart and walked outside the palace.

"Wait a minute!"

It's just that the donkey cart hasn't gone a few steps before a serious voice comes from not far away, and then an ordinary-looking man with a scar on the left side of his face walks over.

This man was the captain of another team of guards.

"Oh, it turned out to be Captain Wu." The burly captain saw the person coming and said something.

"Captain Shi, as the captain of the guard, you actually let people in and out of the palace without searching, you can see how derelict this is!" Captain Wu said coldly.

Captain Shi's face sank, and he said: "Captain Wu, what you said is wrong, Old Man Hong is an acquaintance, and he doesn't know how many times he has been in and out of the palace, and he has been working in the palace for decades, so there is no need to search at all." ”

Captain Wu smiled coldly and said, "Old man Hong may have no problem, but can you guarantee that he will not be threatened by others and then do bad things!?" ”

"If that's the case, what are you guilty of!?"

As soon as Captain Wu's words came out, Captain Shi was obviously stunned, and then a cold sweat broke out on his forehead, because what Captain Wu said was not bad at all.

"Search!"

With a wave of Captain Wu's hand, several guards rushed over, pushed Old Man Hong away, and moved the wooden barrel on it.

All of a sudden, Jiang Nian's face sank when he was staying in the barrel, his right hand was already on the long sword at his waist, and Nangong Ling was also holding Jiang Nian's left hand tightly, his face full of nervousness.

"It stinks!"

As soon as one of the barrels was opened, a pungent stench spread, and the guards couldn't help but cover their mouths and noses, and Captain Wu also frowned and covered his nose.

"Stir it with a stick!"

Captain Wu pointed to a soldier.

The soldier pinched his nose and found a long stick, and tried to quibble inside the barrel, but found nothing.

Soon, the top four barrels were inspected and nothing unusual was found.

"Keep checking!" Captain Wu pinched his nose and continued to command.

Seeing this scene, Captain Shi was furious, he felt that Captain Wu was clearly provoking him, because these inspections were all within the scope of Captain Shi's work, but Captain Wu intervened, which clearly meant to provoke.

Soon, one after another, three of the remaining ten barrels had been inspected, and only one barrel was left alone on the cart.

Jiang Nian and Nangong Ling, who were staying inside, were beating rapidly and were full of nervousness, Jiang Nian held the hilt of the long sword tightly, and rushed out of the palace as soon as there was any movement.

Nangong Ling also hugged Jiang Nian's left hand tightly, biting her red lips tightly, her eyes full of nervousness.

"Get out of the way, let me come!" I don't know what Captain Wu is crazy about, so he wants to check it himself.

This time, it completely angered Captain Shi, and he roared angrily: "Captain Wu, are you enough!" ”

"It's okay, Captain Shi, you just let him check it, it's full of excrement anyway." Old man Hong said with a smile.

"I'm thinking about the safety of the palace!" Captain Wu said coldly.

Brush!

Captain Shi directly pulled out the big knife on his waist, pointed at Captain Wu and shouted, "Get out!" ”

"You...!"

Captain Wu was angry, but he had no choice but to retreat, waved his hand, and said, "After the inspection, put all the wooden barrels on it." ”

One after another, the soldiers put all the wooden barrels on them, Jiang Nian and Nangong Ling, who were staying in the wooden barrels, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and Jiang Nian's right hand holding the hilt of the sword also loosened.

Old man Hong and Captain Shi said a few more words, and then pulled the donkey cart and slowly walked out of the palace gate.

There is no danger, Jiang Nian and Nangong Ling can be regarded as out of the palace.

(I don't know if these chapters are not interesting, in fact, I buried a big hole, I don't know who can guess it?) Obviously, it only takes a little reasoning to know. But the pit I buried is definitely not a 'mysterious fragment'! )
