Chapter 69: Night Talk
Lin Meng, who had been sneaking all the way, after dodging several waves of guards patrolling the night, finally touched the vicinity of the library of the ancient castle, hid behind an old tree with a thick trunk, and poked out half of his head to look out. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"It's not a big change!!" Lin Meng muttered in his heart as he looked at the sentry post that was arranged in the bright place as before. Just when Lin Meng just wanted to run out and bypass the outpost in front of him from another path, a faint sense of crisis suddenly hit his heart, making Lin Meng's heart feel cold, and he quickly squatted down and hid. As soon as he had hidden Lin Meng's excellent spiritual sense, he felt at least two lines of sight, sweeping over his hiding place, but fortunately he hid it tightly enough, and one of them was still patrolling the bushes for a long time before turning elsewhere.
After a while, Lin Meng felt that the sense of crisis in his heart had disappeared, so he cautiously poked out half of his head again, narrowed his eyes slightly, and carefully looked at the checkpoint arranged in front of him.
There were six guards in front, all of whom were standing under the eaves of a small attic on one side of the library, and since there was a wide stone path at the entrance of the attic, the six guards could take care of many places as long as they went to that station. This is not what Lin Meng cares about, what Lin Meng cares about now is where the two eyes he felt just now came from, and if he didn't figure it out, Lin Meng wouldn't dare to go out.
"Hey, it's here!!" Suddenly, Lin Meng was startled and looked at the corner of the third floor of the attic, where it was pitch black, but Lin Meng clearly felt that in the darkness, a faint light flashed away.
After determining a secret whistle on the third floor of the attic, Lin Meng turned his gaze elsewhere again, but this time Lin Meng looked around for a long time and didn't find anything unusual, just when Lin Meng was secretly anxious.
"Flutter Ridge!!" Suddenly a few frightened birds flew up from a large tree on the side of a trail in the distance, "quack!!" and flew into the distance, and at night, the birds would not fly casually unless they were frightened. Lin Meng stared at the big tree that was flying up, and sure enough, between the branches, Lin Meng used his perverted vision to see the silhouette of a humanoid lying on it.
"Whew!!" Discovering these two secret whistles, Lin Meng suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. These two secret sentinels are hidden enough to be secretive, if it weren't for a coincidence, I'm afraid Lin Meng would really be difficult to find.
However, even if Lin Meng found out the secret whistle, it was not so easy to avoid it, basically all the big roads and small roads around were seen to death, especially the dark whistle in the attic, you can monitor a large area at once, and from the top down, it is simply unobstructed and meticulous.
In the end, Lin Meng thought hard for a long time and planned to take a risk. There was an adult-high bush on each side of the stone path at the entrance of the attic, a bit like a plant that was evergreen, and Lin Meng planned to cling to the bush with his whole body, crawling forward, and slipping under the noses of the six guards in front of him. Lin Meng carefully calculated, with the height of that bush, as long as he stuck to the bushes and didn't raise his head, he could just become a blind spot for the six guards in front, not to mention the two secret posts further away. But the only thing I'm worried about is that once someone walks on the stone road, Lin Meng will have nothing to hide, so be fast, Lin Meng will do it when he thinks of it.
Sensing that the dark sentry in the distance was not paying attention to his side, Lin Meng suddenly retreated from behind the trunk into the darkness behind him, and then made a big circle, and in a place that the sentry post could not notice, he lay lightly under the bushes on the side of the stone road. Crawl forward with both hands and feet.
"Damn!, it feels like doing the old job again!!" Smelling the fragrance of soil and flowers at the end of his nose, Lin Meng kept crawling forward quickly with his hands and feet, and kept scolding 'bad luck' in his heart.
Just as Lin Meng passed by the door of the attic, sure enough, no one noticed Lin Meng crawling under everyone's noses, which made Lin Meng breathe a sigh of relief. But not long after Lin Meng passed by the attic, he was crawling unhurriedly, and suddenly there was a "creaking, creaking" sound in the distance, which was clearly the sound of metal armor when walking.
"Stalp, stomp!!" Sure enough, after a few breaths, a team of patrol guards suddenly came from the intersection in front of him, Lin Meng listened intently, and quickly determined that it was also six guards. Lin Meng secretly thought in his heart that it should be the time for the shift change, and he was also unlucky, but fortunately, until a few people walked away, he couldn't find Lin Meng hiding behind the bushes, and after the guards walked away, Lin Meng crawled quickly with both hands, because if it was really a shift change, there would be guards who would come back from this road, and Lin Meng would finish this road before them.
This time, there were no more moths, and the rest of Lu Lin climbed without stopping three times and dividing five by two. After climbing, Lin Meng didn't have time to shake off the dust on his body, so he hurriedly drilled into the woods in front of him and disappeared into the woods.
......
"Ness, have things been going well in the past few days?" Just as Lin Meng sneaked all the way and touched the residence of Grand Duke Ness, in Grand Duke Ness's study, an old voice suddenly sounded. The voice was not only old, but also a little hoarse and stiff, as if the owner of the voice did not usually deal with people, so it seemed a little difficult to speak.
"Back to my grandfather's words, everything has been going very well recently, two days ago there was news from Red Maple Fort and Westster City, and the Red Maple Fort and Westster City have been successfully taken according to the plan, and the personnel of the Martin family and the Moore family are already on their way to the Red Fort. Grand Duke Ness said respectfully.
"Haha, that's good, I didn't expect that after I said goodbye for many years, I would come back with a lot of things, even your father died tragically, it seems that some of the big people in the Red Fort have forgotten about my Denier. In particular, Les Cuomo dared to plot to steal the position of Grand Duke and design to kill Kent, which is simply unforgivable. The old man who was still smiling was already cloudy at the moment, and a cold aura came out of the old man's body, making Grand Duke Niss, who was sitting opposite, shiver involuntarily.
"Hmph!!Such a way of dying, it is simply cheaper for Les Como, otherwise if it falls into the hands of the old man, the old man will tell him not to survive, he can't die, and he dares to calculate the old man's blood!!" the old man seemed to be angry, his face was gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and said word by word.
"Please calm your grandfather's anger!!" Under the anger of the old man, the air around him became colder and colder, and Grand Duke Niss felt the cold hairs on his back stand up, and hurriedly comforted him. Regarding the words of the old man in front of him, Grand Duke Niss had no doubt that the other party could easily do it.
At the beginning, the old man who claimed to be his grandfather first appeared in Oise City two years ago, and the other party took the initiative to come to the door, saying that he wanted to see Marquis Nice, but he was driven away by the guards guarding the door as a crazy old man, perhaps considering that these people were his granddaughter's guards, the old man didn't say anything, turned around and left without saying a word, and everyone thought that nothing happened, and they didn't even report it, after all, this kind of indiscriminate climbing of relatives, although it doesn't happen often, but there will always be one or two times.
But that night, late at night, when Ness Cuomo, who was still a marquis at the time, was about to go to bed after handling some political affairs in her study, she just got up and suddenly a strange wind appeared in the study with the doors and windows closed without warning, which surprised Nice Cuomo. Just after the strange wind disappeared, an old man in a strange robe suddenly appeared out of thin air, staring at him with a smile.
"Who are you?" Ness Cuomo was startled, and quickly grabbed a very delicate dagger ornament on the table, pulled out the dagger, and pointed at the old man and asked.
"Hehe!!Ness, don't be afraid, I'm your grandfather, Denier Como!!" looked at the very nervous Ness Cuomo, and the old man who claimed to be Denier Cuomo laughed.
Although the other party's words were filled with a hoarse sound like metal rubbing, Ness Cuomo was extremely uncomfortable at first hearing, and felt goosebumps rise on her body. But Ness Cuomo still felt a gentle kindness from the other party's words, and the other party didn't seem to intend to hurt herself, which made Niss Cuomo's face soften a lot.
Ness Cuomo looked at the old man in front of him in a strange gray robe, the old man was not short, similar to himself, with long silver hair, a big high nose, slightly thin lips, a wrinkled face, and a strange cane, but the fingernails holding the crutches were like eagle hooks, long and sharp, and there was a layer of black light on them.
"Grandfather?" Ness Cuomo was stunned when she heard this, the old man in front of her, who looked like he had just crawled out of the grave, could actually be his grandfather, who had never been masked.
"Yes, grandfather!!" said the old man with a smile. "Of course I know you may not believe it at all, but I want to say that I am the grandfather you have never met, Denier Cuomo. ”
"When your father was less than twenty years old, I went on a journey to follow in the footsteps of wizards, so you have never seen me, and I am afraid that even your father is not very impressed with me. At this point, a hint of gloom flashed in the old man's eyes, but this is the price to be paid for the pursuit of truth.
"Wizard, father?" Ness Cuomo was very surprised at first, the old man in front of him was actually a wizard who was only mentioned in the biography, no wonder he was able to break into his study so strangely, and then heard the other party mention his father, Nith Cuomo felt a pain in his heart.
"What's wrong, is there anything wrong with your father?" a hint of nervousness flashed across the old man's face.
"My father was killed ten years ago!!" said Ness Cuomo's eyes, and a hint of gloom flashed in her eyes.
