Chapter Fifty-Eight: Breaking into the Palace Alone with Skill
Spring has come to an end, and summer is just around the corner. At this time, even at night, the temperature in Shangluo is no longer so cold. It's just that the spring wind is blowing again today, not to mention that many of those flags have long been blown away to unknown corners, that is, many branches have been blown off by the wind, and the fallen cities are full of broken branches and leaves.
Gao Ming, dressed in a night suit, squatted on top of a centuries-old tree, looking at the palace not far away that was much darker than before. Rows of palaces stand there in a staggered manner. Without the large number of lanterns outside the palace in the past, the palaces were black and hollow, which looked quite scary.
"God help me. ”
Gao Ming is fully prepared for this visit. He had carefully studied the map of the palace before he arrived, and since he had spent a few days in the palace at that time, it was fair to say that he knew this vast palace complex well.
Emperor Fu Zhen of the Great Jin Dynasty lives in the Chengqian Palace on weekdays, this palace is located in the northeast of the palace, although Gao Ming has not been to it last time, but the place where he stayed is only separated by a palace from the map, and the Chengqian Palace is only separated by a palace, the distance is very close.
Thick clouds obscured the moon, which was supposed to shine brightly, and the sound of a howling westerly wind drowned out countless sounds. Not only had Gao Ming's eyesight already recovered at this time, but due to the refinement of the Dragon Transformation Technique, his eyesight was sharper than before on such a night.
Although the west wind was fierce, the sergeants patrolling inside and outside the palace still carried the usual air lanterns, and the time between each team was extremely short. On weekdays, according to the unified arrangement of the inside and outside, there are patrol sergeants in every direction almost all the time. But with such a strong westerly wind today, the timing of this patrol is not so precise.
Gao Ming secretly observed on the tall tree for a while, and when he figured out the rhythm of the patrol sergeant, he used his spiritual power, and kicked his feet the trunk of the tree, and the person was like a sharp arrow off the string, and in the blink of an eye, he crossed the tall palace wall. Fortunately, he knew in advance that there were talismans carved on the walls of this palace, otherwise as long as a person stood on the palace wall, there would be a flash of fire, and it would be impossible not to be discovered.
Although he castrated quickly, when he landed, he was as light as catkins and silent. After landing, he glanced left and right, listened to the ground for a moment, then leaned over and flew up, and his left foot bounced towards the vermilion pillar to the other side of the corridor a few feet away. Then he leaned against the wall again, listened for a moment, silently counting the footsteps of the pair of sergeants who had just passed, and calculating the time of their turn according to the distance of the cloister. As soon as the group of sergeants turned the corner, he quickly flew up again and ran in the direction of Chengqian Palace.
Gao Mingyi is very clever in his current qi collection technique, and the west wind is howling at night, which greatly distracts the attention of the patrol sergeant in Pingsuri, coupled with his amazing speed, which made him turn left and right all the way to the outside of the Chengqian Palace.
The walls and roof of this palace are covered with talismans, and he cannot break through the roof, but can only enter through the main entrance.
The reason why Gao Ming was able to finally become one of the few god-level players standing at the top of the game in that world is inseparable from his character of making decisions and making decisions. As an otaku, he attaches great importance to details, and has developed the habit of deducing everything on paper in advance. For the current situation, he already had a plan, so he didn't panic at all. It's just that with the help of the night and his own cultivation, he hides his body in a corner, and his external breathing turns into internal breathing, and he doesn't move, as if he is integrated into the night. He didn't have to wait long before he saw a group of eunuch-like people walking towards the palace. He was overjoyed in his heart, first immediately triggered the 'invisibility talisman' that had already been pinched in his hand, and then with a flick of the middle finger of his right hand, a stone bounced from his hand to the opposite side of the main gate of the Chengqian Palace.
"When. "There was a crisp sound on the ground, and even the whistling west wind couldn't cover it, not to mention those tigers outside the palace whose six senses were far beyond ordinary people. The attention of everyone guarding the door of the Chengqian Hall immediately attracted the direction of the sound, and Gao Ming, who was in the "invisibility talisman", took the opportunity to quietly follow the team of eunuchs and maids into the Chengqian Palace.
"Huang Jun, Zhou He, you two go over there and take a look. As the door closed, Gao Ming heard such an order coming from behind him. If it weren't for the sound that attracted everyone's attention, relying on the invisibility charm alone, Gao Ming was worried that at such a close distance, he would not be able to pass the keen eyes and nose of the master.
The leader of this team of eunuchs and maids, he even recognized that it was Yin Huangmen Yin Dayan, who took him from Shen Xiu that day. Yin Dayan was followed by two young eunuchs and two maids. The two eunuchs each carried a golden silk nanmu cage in their hands, and they only followed behind Yin Huangmen.
Suddenly, Yin Huangmen turned his head, and a pair of eyes were like eagle eyes, and he looked behind the two maids suspiciously. The people behind him didn't know why he turned around, and they all hurriedly lowered their heads when they looked at his cold gaze, and their hearts were uneasy.
Gao Ming in the invisibility talisman was in his heart, and said in his heart that this person's cultivation was really profound, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief just now, and he was aware of it.
Yin looked at it for a moment, couldn't see any clues, and turned his head and walked forward. Just a few steps away, he suddenly exerted force under his feet, a bow on his back, and a maid behind him was hit by him like this, and his whole body seemed to be hit by a bow, and the person flew out backwards quickly.
"Poof. "That maid is also an ordinary person, how can she withstand Yin Dayan's profound cultivation of a monk like this, a mouthful of blood spurted out in the air, and the internal organs were already shattered by this force, and they were already lifeless before they landed.
Gao Ming was fortunate to have a little more thought just now, and he was no longer following these people closely, otherwise this time, he would have dodged with a leap, and with Yin Dayan's cultivation, he would immediately be able to detect him in the invisibility talisman.
Yin Huangmen frightened the other three people and immediately knelt on the ground, shaking like chaff, I don't know where that person did something wrong, and he was killed by Yin Huangmen like this.
Yin Dayan's eyes were like lightning flashes, and he looked back and forth suspiciously, but nothing changed in the field. The expression on his face changed, and his right hand reached into his left sleeve robe, and he was about to take out a talisman. At this moment, he first felt a sharp blade easily pierce his clothes, and then a familiar voice sounded in his ears: "Yin Huangmen, long time no see." Are you completely taking refuge in Shen Xiu?"
Yin Dayan listened to Gao Ming's voice, his right hand froze there, and he pretended to be calm and said to Gao Ming behind him: "You are not dead yet, and you dare to come back?"
Gao Ming held the sword in his right hand against the opponent's back, and connected the dots with his left hand, and the three people were stunned wherever the spiritual power went, and he also appeared.
"I have a clear conscience, why don't I dare to come back?" Gao Ming said in a squeezed voice: "It's you, Empress Jia treats you well, you turn your head and go to Shen Xiu again, aren't you ashamed?"
"Man is a sword, I am a fish. Yin Dayan didn't shout, and still said in a tight voice: "On that day, the tigers in the front of the palace and the palace were all scattered, and I am a eunuch, what strength do I have to defend Empress Jia." ”
When Gao Ming heard this, he couldn't help but be a little speechless. "Come on, is the emperor here?"
"What do you want?" Yin Dayan's face changed greatly when he heard Gao Ming's words.
"Don't talk nonsense," Gao Ming's ears were amazing, and when he heard a footstep coming out, as soon as he used his hand, the tip of the sword immediately pierced into Yin Dayan's skin, "Say it quickly, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless." ”
Yin Dayan twisted his head and looked at him fiercely, his eyes showed fierceness, but he didn't beg for mercy.
Gao Ming couldn't help but have a headache when he saw the other party like this. He is not essentially a person of this world, and he can't get this killer down. At this time, the footsteps were getting closer and closer, and Gao Ming said urgently: "I am here to save the emperor, to help the emperor get out of Shen Xiu's control." If you believe me, tell me if the emperor lives here, and in what room does he live in?"
Hearing his words, the fierce color in Yin Dayan's eyes finally disappeared, and was replaced by a look of doubt.
Gao Ming saw the change in the other party's expression, and hurriedly said: "I came here on the order of King Huainan, otherwise there are so many places in this palace, how can I find this place." ”
Suddenly, a female scream broke the silence in the hall, and the maid who came out of the West Chamber saw Gao Ming holding a sword against Yin Dayan's body, and with a "bang", the porcelain plate in her hand fell to the ground and shattered.
"There's an assassin!" she shouted as she ran inside.
Gao Ming saw that the other party was shouting, and his heart was not good, and he was about to beat Yin Dayan first and then follow the maid in, when he heard Yin Dayan say in a tight voice: "The emperor is in the East Wing." Gao Ming, if you lie to me today, I will not let you go even if I am a ghost in the future. ”
"Thank you. Gao Ming was overjoyed when he heard this, and rushed directly into the east wing.
When the maid inside heard the scream, she waited to close the door, but how could she resist a person like Gao Ming. With a "bang", Gao Ming even brought the door in and slammed it open. As soon as he entered, he heard several strong winds slashing at him.
"Get out of the way. Gao Ming shouted violently, the sword in his hand danced wildly, and his body suddenly rushed forward, and at the same time, the golden bell talisman had already been activated, and a layer of metal protective shield that was condensed like a substance immediately protected him in it.
"Bang. There was a thud, and then there was a muffled snort, and the man in front of him was struck by Gao Ming's sword, and he struck the man with a palm, and he flew away.
Then I heard a few "bangs", and the rest of the people, either swords or swords, slashed on the top of the golden bell jar, and were either bounced off or slid down from the side. Several people were shocked, although the incident happened suddenly, they did not use all their strength, but their cultivation could not even cut through the other party's shield in the first blow, such a strong talisman is really unprecedented.
In between these breaths, Gao Ming's toes were a little bit, and he pounced on the newly awakened emperor on the dragon bed in the center of the room.
"Bold thief, Hugh has to offend the Holy Driver. In the exclamation of several people, Gao Mingdu had already come to Huangfu Xin's side.
"Your Majesty, if you are offended, I will take you out of the palace. With the emperor in hand, Gao Ming suddenly felt a lot more steady. "You, go and bring your majesty's clothes. He spoke up again and ordered a palace maid who was already stunned by the bedside.
"Who are you, who dare to offend the emperor, aren't you afraid of being punished by the Nine Clans?" the several eunuchs who accompanied him were angry and asked loudly.
"Zhao King Shen Xiu held the emperor hostage first," Seeing that they and those brightly armored tigers in front of the palace who had just broken in, they did not dare to step forward, and Gao Ming said in a good time, "I am here to save the emperor from the sea of suffering, you guys, you must keep your eyes open to see who is loyal and who is traitor." Do not be misled by traitors, but attack loyal ones. ”
