Chapter 305: Latent
The treasure appraisal conference was held for two days, and two rare treasures were stolen in a row, and the matter quickly spread all over the streets and alleys of Yucheng, and people could hear people's discussions everywhere they went. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoIn this regard, Emperor Yu also felt a lot of pressure, after all, the treasures on display this time were jointly provided by the four countries, no matter which country's exhibits were lost, it meant that the rain country needed to make corresponding compensation, after all, the treasure appreciation conference was held in Yucheng.
In fact, the reason why the location of the treasure appraisal conference was chosen in the first place was precisely because among the capitals of the four countries, Yucheng has the largest area, the largest number of people, and the strongest escort force. Now that this incident has happened, it undoubtedly makes people doubt the strength of the rain country. Under these circumstances, Emperor Yu demanded that Haodong mobilize all his forces and recover the stolen treasure.
It was another dark and windy night, and the whole palace complex was quiet. The dim lights on both sides of the road stretched the shadows of the elm trees very long. What is somewhat surprising is that after two thefts, the outside of the Shuibo Hall is still unguarded, and the hole next to the gate is only roughly made up with stones. The crow perched on the branch, and from time to time let out a few hoarse chirps, and before I knew it, the slight sound of footsteps sounded in my ears.
Turning his gaze over, he saw two figures dressed in night clothes and wearing masks quietly walking towards the Shuibo Temple. They were cautious, pausing and observing each step to make sure there was no threat around them before moving forward. In just a few tens of meters, it took them a full half a column of incense. In the process, there was still silence all around, and there were no guards or guards with knives.
Such a scene made the two more vigilant. But since you've come here, there's no reason to go home empty-handed. The two of them looked at each other, and one of the burly men raised his right hand. On closer inspection, his entire palm was gone, replaced by a conical diamond with threads on the surface, emitting a faint cold light in the moonlight.
"Let's do it. A soft female voice rang in her ears.
The burly man nodded, and the diamond in his hand began to spin rapidly. To be on the safe side, he didn't choose the place he had drilled before, but instead found another complete wall next to it. I don't know what material the drill bit is made of, and just a little touch of the wall makes the solid stone wall melt like tofu. This process did not take much time, and after a while, a hole about two feet in diameter, just enough for the two of them to pass through, appeared in front of them.
The woman was the first to burrow into the hole, and the man followed. After entering the Water Wave Hall, you have to walk through a winding passage to reach the exhibition hall. Looking at the uneven, foamy blue walls on both sides, the two did not dare to relax their vigilance at all. They cautiously walked through the passage and finally came to the Wanbao exhibition hall in the center. The man was about to step into it, but was pulled by the woman.
"Look. The woman said in a deep voice. Looking at the woman's line of sight, I saw that there were two more black balls at the entrance of the exhibition hall, located on the left and right thresholds, which were extremely inconspicuous in the dark, and they would be ignored if they were careless.
"Alarm bell beads. The man snorted coldly, obviously quite familiar with the object. The so-called alarm bell beads are actually two small balls made of special materials, and between them will form an invisible energy network, once something passes through, it will emit a piercing alarm bell, hence the name.
"Leave it to me. The woman stepped forward, undaunted by the alarm bells on either side. The moment she passed through the ragged door, the alarm bell suddenly flashed red. Before they could make a sound, two cold lights flashed by in an instant, completely destroying the two alarm bell beads with lightning speed.
"You're still so agile. There was a hint of praise in the man's voice.
"It's the people of the Escort who are stupid. The woman replied lightly.
In this way, the two successfully entered the exhibition hall. They looked around and carefully observed the treasures in the hall in order to decide which one to attack. Even at night when there is no light, the exhibition hall is still very bright, and it is the dazzling light of hundreds of treasures gathered together.
Finally, the two of them walked to the front of a counter. It was a short dagger with an unusually sharp blade that shimmered with a faint glow, and the hilt was so beautifully crafted that a dragon leaped over it. At the top of the handle, there is also a yellow amber embedded in it. From the moment she saw it, the woman's gaze never left.
"That's it. Seeing this, the man said with a smile.
The woman nodded, and the two were about to make a move, when they suddenly heard a sound of breaking wind in their ears. The woman was the first to react and hurriedly took a step back. The next moment, a sword that shimmered red slashed at the place where she had just stood. Immediately after, the blade of the sword spun around and stabbed straight towards her chest. At the last moment, the woman suddenly took out a dagger and barely resisted the blade. At the same time, a roar sounded in his ears, and a sturdy figure swept out of the darkness, like a fierce jackal, and threw the man to the ground.
"You can't escape. Zhu Jue slowly walked out from the back of the exhibition hall and looked at the two black-clothed people in front of him. The reason why he didn't make a move was because he was worried about hurting the treasures in the exhibition hall. But fortunately, Qiushui and Yan Boshu alone were enough to subdue these two thieves.
Time went back to six hours ago, just when the museum closed that day, Chen Min found the three of them and gave them this difficult task.
"The Black Whirlwind has always been high-profile, but it is also cautious. If too many guards are placed outside the Water Wave Palace, it will make them jealous and give up the operation. Therefore, I will only send the three of you to hide in the exhibition hall and capture the thieves as soon as they appear. Having said that, the reason why the black whirlwind has been able to dominate the rivers and lakes for many years and has not yet been caught so far must be supported by strong strength, and you still need to be careful. I will prepare my men and horses in advance, and lurk in the rain temple not far away, ready to support you. ”
The whole thing has come to an end, and it should be said that it has gone quite smoothly, even more than Zhu Jue and others originally imagined. At this moment, the woman suddenly exerted force in her hand, pushed off Qiushui's blade, and then turned around and kicked at Yan Boshu's body, kicking him out and hitting the beam on the side. Immediately after, she picked up the man on the ground and quickly ran towards the outside of the exhibition hall.
"Want to go, it's not that easy!" Zhu Jue snorted coldly, and a raging fire ignited in his hand. At this moment, the woman suddenly threw a black bead from her hand. Zhu Jue dodged it sideways, but when the beads hit the ground, they exploded suddenly, emitting a choking puff of smoke, which quickly spread in the exhibition hall, blocking everyone's sight. Seeing this situation, Qiushui's face turned pale, and he directly raised the Tiansha in his hand, and slashed down in the air, cutting a passage in the smoke.
"Chase!"
