Chapter 799: Guarding and Stealing
In addition to setting up a simple protective array inside, the treasury of the rampant demon king usually only has four foundation-building monks outside to take turns to guard, one in the late stage of foundation building, and three in the middle stage of foundation building.
Due to the lack of manpower for the celebration banquet, two guards were transferred from here, and there were only two people left on the treasury side, which was no problem under normal circumstances. Who knew that the sudden change, the blood-clothed man came to the door, and when he was caught off guard, almost all the high-level leaders on Rampant Island were submerged, and the entire inner city was in chaos, which made it possible for Qingyang and Xiying to exploit the loophole.
According to Xi Ying, there are at most two mid-foundation building monks outside the treasury, and their comprehensive strength is lower than that of Xi Ying and Qingyang, and in the case of a sneak attack, the odds of victory are very high, and the only question is whether they can break the protective array inside the treasury before the others arrive.
It was precisely because they knew this that Qingyang and Xiying dared to come over and take risks.
Knowing that there were guards nearby, the two of them became more and more careful after entering the courtyard, and every step of the way, they had to listen to the surrounding movements first, and observe the nearby situation with their divine thoughts, for fear of alarming the treasury guards and turning the sneak attack into a hard break. Although Qingyang was sure to defeat the two mid-stage foundation building cultivators, the force was too quiet, and if he recruited others, things would be difficult to handle.
The courtyard where the treasury is located is very large, Qingyang and Xiying carefully explored for a long time, but they didn't find where the two guards were hiding, could it be that the guards here were timid and fled?
It wasn't until the two of them came to the entrance of the treasury that they found a fourth-floor monk dressed as a guard. The door of the treasury was ajar, and the monk lay at the door, his eyes looking inside the treasury, and he didn't know what he was looking at, and he didn't notice that outsiders were approaching the treasury.
Seeing that the gate of the treasury was half hidden, Qingyang's heart sank suddenly, and it seemed that the situation had changed. No matter where they are, the guards are not qualified to open the gate of the treasury, but now the door of the treasury is open, but the guards are standing outside, indicating that other high-level officials from the rampant island have entered the treasury, if the strength of the person who comes is too high, he and Xiying can't deal with it.
Not knowing the situation inside, neither of them dared to act without authorization, so they could only carefully cover up Xingzang and secretly observe the movement at the door of the treasury.
After about a cup of tea, the guard at the gate of the treasury became a little impatient, and shouted inside: "Lao Zheng, how is the situation?" Hasn't the formation been opened yet? ”
"Wait, it'll be right away." A voice came from inside.
The guard at the door said: "It's not that I can't wait, it's really that we have delayed too much time, and there is already a mess outside, maybe someone will notice the treasury side at any time, and the demon king's side has been fighting for a long time, whether the demon king wins, or the blood-clothed man wins, he will definitely come to the treasury to check as soon as possible, if we are blocked inside, it will be all over." ”
The voice inside said, "How can I not understand this? Although the method of breaking the formation that you found out was useful, some key points were vague, and I wasted a lot of time in vain, otherwise we would have taken our things and ran away at this time. You don't have to be in a hurry, at most with a cup of tea, I can completely break this formation, and then the things in the treasury will be ours, and after taking the things, we will immediately go away. ”
The guards at the door also understood this truth, as the guards of the treasury, they were not qualified to know the method of opening the protective array inside, and they could not let them know, so as not to steal from the guards. However, this guard is a person with a heart, once when the rampant demon king sent someone to fetch something, because he came and went in a hurry and did not have too much defense, he inadvertently saw the method of opening the formation.
Today, the blood-clothed man came to the door, most of the high-level leaders of Rampant Island were contained, and the Rampant Demon King didn't know if he could come back alive, so this guard had the idea of taking advantage of the fire to rob.
This kind of thing can't be left behind his companion Lao Zheng no matter what, so he told this matter, and Lao Zheng also had this thought, and the two sides hit it off. Lao Zheng is a sixth-layer cultivator of the foundation, and he is good at breaking the formation, so the task of breaking the formation is done by Lao Zheng, and he stays outside to watch the wind.
It's just that the method of breaking the formation is stealing after all, and he is not particularly clear about some key parts, which adds a lot of difficulty to breaking the formation, if it weren't for Lao Zheng who is very good at breaking the formation, let alone having another cup of tea, it would not be enough time for another hour.
The time for a cup of tea was very short, and it passed after a little perseverance, thinking that the entire treasury of the rampant demon king was opened for the two of them, and everything was theirs, and they could take whatever they wanted, and the guard at the door couldn't help but feel excited.
Developed, now it is really going to be developed, and if you get so many good things at once, your cultivation will definitely improve by leaps and bounds, not to mention the late stage of foundation building, even if it is the Jindan realm, it is not impossible, and the future is promising. It's a pity that the space of my own talisman is a little small, and I can't take too many things away, so I can only try to pick up the high value when I take things, which is distressing.
When the guards were looking forward to the future, Qingyang and Xiying had already judged the general situation from their conversations, and they were still worried before, even if they could drive away these two guards, the formation in the treasury would not be easy to break, and it would not be good if it dragged on for too long.
Who would have thought that the drowsiness ran into a pillow, and the treasury guards were stealing themselves, and they were about to open the protective array. Since this is the case, they don't have to worry, when the two guards completely break the formation, they will find a way to drive the two guards away, killing two birds with one stone.
Qingyang and Xiying glanced at each other, smiled at each other tacitly, and then hid in the corner, waiting for the two guards in the treasury to break the formation.
The judgment of the guards inside was still very accurate, and after about a quarter of an hour, suddenly, there was a fluctuation of spiritual power from the treasury, although the fluctuation inside was very weak, but Qingyang and Xiying could feel that it was the movement when the protective array was broken.
The guard at the door also seemed to feel it, and without waiting for the guard inside to speak, he walked quickly towards the treasury, and asked as he went, "Lao Zheng, is the formation broken?" Then you don't need me to watch the wind outside, let's quickly grab our things and run away. ”
He can't help but be in a hurry, although the rampant demon king's treasury is very large, but the good things are limited, if he goes in late, the good things will definitely be picked up by Lao Zheng, although the two agreed to divide the things taken out equally, but Lao Zheng Xiu is higher and stronger, if he doesn't divide himself, he can't do it, or it is safer to get it in his own hands.
