Chapter 59: Digging a Pit

After Shi Ziling, Su Fengxian and Xiaohong had a passionate entanglement, it was already midnight.

He looked at the two beauties who were sleeping soundly beside him, remembered the purpose of coming today, and finally sat up in his clothes.

Shi Ziling came today wearing a black robe, just suitable for night walking, at this moment is in the middle of the night, although the moon building is still brightly lit, there are still many guests in the staggered staggered to have fun, but the backyard has been relatively deserted. After Shi Ziling was properly dressed, he quietly pushed the door out and walked to the west side of the backyard of Deyue Tower.

Along the way, Shi Ziling sneaked into shape, and with his superb skills, he naturally easily avoided the maids and guards who came and went, and quietly sneaked into the backyard of Deyue Tower.

Shi Ziling remembered that Chen Zhongping said that the place where the royal secret record was buried was on the west side of Deyue Tower, and it should be near the west building where Su Xiaoxiao was.

He quietly came to the vicinity of the West Building, because he was extra careful, he did not alarm anyone, and after going around the West Building where Su Xiaoxiao was, he did not find anything abnormal, and he couldn't think of where the place where the royal secret record was buried would be for a while. When I was struggling with my nerves, I heard a slight abnormal noise in my ears.

Shi Ziling had already carried the dementor **, and his hearing was far away, and he would be shocked as soon as there was any wind and grass, and the strange sound he heard at this moment was obviously a night walker approaching this side. His heart moved, and he secretly thought that it could be the people of the "Dark Way" who came to hunt for treasures?

He looked around, but there was no suitable place to hide, and when he heard that the night walkers were coming very quickly, he unfolded his body in a hurry, and jumped on a towering ancient tree in front of the west building, so that he could hide his body, and two night masked people had already jumped quickly.

As soon as Shi Ziling saw the speed of these two people's body movements, he knew that their strength was extraordinary, and they were very good at the technique of night walking, no wonder the speed was so fast, but it did not alarm anyone.

Seeing that the two men stopped near the West Building, they seemed to be looking for something.

Shi Ziling carefully observed the figures of these two people, although it was the middle of the night, but by the light of the stars in the sky, Shi Ziling had already recognized that these two people were the two masked people who had encountered in Chen Gongzhao's mansion the day before.

The more one of them looks, the more he looks like a dustless master, and the other is obviously the peerless master who was going to kill Chen Zhongping that day, if it is not bad, this person is likely to be the sect leader of the "Dark Dao".

Shi Ziling was a little excited in his heart, thinking that it was fortunate that he didn't indulge in the gentle incense and couldn't fall asleep for a long time, if he didn't come out tonight, he was afraid that he had already been succeeded by the two masters of this "dark way".

He was worried that he couldn't find the exact location of the Royal Secret Record, and now that someone from the "Dark Way" was looking for him with a map, it really couldn't be better. After seeing the two masked men looking around for a while, they took out a map and began to check the terrain, Shi Ziling remained silent, holding his breath on the tree and waiting quietly.

After checking the map, the two masked men slowly walked towards the ancient tree where the stone tomb was located.

Shi Ziling secretly shouted badly, although this big tree is extremely tall and luxuriant, but after all, it is not the best place to hide, if the following two people are really masters of the "Dark Way", they must be good at the art of stealing and creeping, as long as they look up and pay a little attention, they are likely to find Shi Ziling's figure.

The two masked men came to a stop under the ancient tree, but did not look up, but walked around the ancient tree, their eyes always staying near the root, and one of them stopped about five feet from the east side of the root, checked the map in his hand, and nodded to the other.

The other understood, and both of them pulled out the shovels they were carrying on their backs and began to dig.

Shi Ziling was very surprised in his heart, and he didn't expect that the place where the royal secret record was buried was under the big tree he was in.

The two masked men obviously came prepared, and even brought shovels with them, but when they dug like this, they would inevitably make some noise, although it was the dead of night now, but there were still a lot of guards patrolling the night in the Deyue Tower, and I don't know how these two masked men would deal with it once they were discovered.

The two masked men were so skilled that they soon dug a large pit more than one person deep, and the earth dug out of the pit was piled up under the big tree, and a high piece was piled up under the tree.

At this moment, eight guards patrolled from afar, and although the two masked men were startled, they didn't seem to care, and the two of them jumped into the pit together and continued to dig deeper, completely ignoring the gradual approach of several guards.

The guards patrolled all the way, and sure enough, they found that something was wrong, and someone from afar shouted: "Who is sneaking under the tree in front of you, and what kind of fame is you doing in the middle of the night?"

The two masked men under the tree turned a deaf ear, wielding their shovels vigorously.

The eight guards were not sure what the way these two people were going for a while, so they hurried over with lanterns in their hands, and after walking a few steps, several guards who rushed over had seen the night dress of these two people, and knew that something was wrong, and one of them picked up a bamboo whistle and blew the whistle.

The two masked men who were digging the pit wanted to wait for these guards to get rid of them in one fell swoop, but they didn't expect that these guards would have a guard post with them, and one of the masked men hurriedly waved his hand, and a few fluorescent lights flew out in his hand, and the two guards closest to him immediately fell.

The rest of the guards were horrified, and while retreating, they all blew bamboo whistles, and for a while the bamboo whistles made a big noise in the backyard, and soon many guards rushed one after another.

The two masked men saw that more and more guards were coming one after another, but their excavation had not been effective, and they couldn't help but be a little anxious. However, they also knew that it was useless to be in a hurry, and since they had already dug to this point, wouldn't it be a waste of their efforts to give up? The two of them simply didn't care about the guards, but just stepped up and continued their digging work.

The guards of Deyue Tower came very quickly, and soon Xiahou Tong, the head of the nursing home, had already led a large group of guards to the scene and surrounded the two masked men.

The two masked men were not in a hurry, one continued to dig deeper, and the other jumped up to the pit and greeted the leader Xiahoutong.

Although Xiahou Tong got a notice from Aunt Thirteen early in the morning, saying that there was news from Shiziling that there might be a murderer of Chen Gongzhao in Deyue Tower in the past few days, but neither Aunt Thirteen herself nor Xiahou Tong cared about it, and it was expected that even if there was really a murderer of Chen Gongzhao who came over, he was just here to drink and have fun, and he should not come to Deyue Tower to make trouble.

Since it was a guest, even if he was the murderer of Chen Gongzhao, there was no reason for the Xiahou family to arrest him.

Just for the sake of insurance, Xiahou Tong made the guards of each team patrol at night equipped with special bamboo whistles, saying that they would whistle and warn if something happened. I didn't expect something to happen at midnight.

Xiahou Tong hurriedly came to the backyard, and saw two masked men wielding shovels digging something, and couldn't help but be very surprised, not understanding what the two masked men came to the backyard of Deyue Tower in the middle of the night.

He came as fast as he could, and in a few leaps he came to two masked men, one of whom was still digging in the pit, while the other was greeted with a shovel in his hand, staring at him coldly.

As soon as Xiahou Tong touched the masked man's extremely sharp gaze, he couldn't help but shudder, and his heart was terrified.

Although he is the head of the nursing home of the Xiahou family in the Deyue Tower, he is also a well-informed contemporary master, and this person in front of him must be extraordinary, just the cold light in his eyes can make people feel timid, if he is not a top master, he will never have such a fierce momentum.

It's just that such a master, it is really unbelievable that he came here in the middle of the night to dig a pit with a mask.
