Chapter 69: The Forbidden Army Besieges the Drunken Immortal Tower
Bai Qing fell into deep thought.
He and Qin Mengchi did not really enter Jinling, even if they were businessmen, they had already been managed, not made up temporarily.
Such a caravan leader spends a lot of money, and it is natural to live in the upper house of the Tianzi Mansion in Zuixian Building.
In all respects, he shouldn't be targeted by the people of the Hanging Sword Division.
But Qin Mengchi found that someone was watching, which meant that it was really exposed.
People who do this line of work will not have a fluke mentality, no matter how much Bai Qing trusts Fan Xi's case, he is also suspicious at this time.
"I suddenly didn't feel well." Bai Qing frowned, feeling a chill run down his spine.
Animals have an intuition, the death intuition.
When a catastrophe comes, there will be such a subtle feeling that ordinary people will not care about, but the warrior can grasp the bad taste.
"Let's transfer, change our identity and leave the city tomorrow, it's not suitable to live here for a long time." Qin Mengchi said cautiously.
"No, at this time, the people of the Sword Hanging Division are watching more closely, which is more suitable for them to do things...... Tomorrow morning the market will leave, blend in with the crowd, and then slowly figure it out. ”
"Why don't you retreat immediately?" Qin Mengchi said in surprise, "You still want to kill Fang Jue?" ”
Bai Qing said coldly: "It's just a weak young man, killing him is like digging for something, if you don't complete this task, you will be troubled by the Fan Xi case when you go back, and give him the opportunity to cut my power." ”
"Whatever you want......" Qin Mengchi shook her head helplessly, she knew that the desire for power had soaked into the soul of Bai Qing and Fan Xi.
……
The wind in Jinling at night was still a little unbearable, Fang Jue was blowing the wind on the Tower of Babel, and Xiao Pingsi was pacing in the imperial garden.
"Your Majesty, it's time to sleep peacefully, there will be a court meeting tomorrow." Wang Feng reminded appropriately.
Today's emperor didn't know what was wrong, and he was a little restless all day, as if a catastrophe was coming.
Wang Feng didn't dare to gasp, and trembled all day long, for fear that he would accidentally annoy His Majesty.
"I can't sleep......"
Xiao Pingsi gritted his teeth, and finally made a decision, he didn't want to wait, and he didn't dare to bet.
"Send an order to the Hanging Sword Division, let them pull out all the spies from various countries who have recently entered Beijing overnight!"
"Let Mo Yuan go to the Drunken Immortal Tower early tomorrow morning, and invite that Bai Qing to stay in the Janissary Prison!"
Wang Feng: "Your Majesty Shengming, these spies and masters from all walks of life have entered Beijing, and now there is really an undercurrent surging in the capital, and murderous opportunities are lurking......"
With the issuance of the secret decree, the Hanging Sword Division and the forbidden army received the order, and a battalion of soldiers was dispatched that night and began a city-wide search.
Most of the people's footholds have already been detected, and as soon as the city gate is closed, it is to catch turtles in the urn.
Jinling, after all, is the Kyoto of the Great Xia Kingdom, and it is under the control of the forbidden army and the Hanging Sword Division.
"Knock knock knock ......" Changzhifang, a dilapidated mansion, was knocked on the door in the night.
"Who?" The man in the house asked cautiously.
"Jingzhao Yin Mansion, check the big thief and snitch, and be ordered to check the household registration." A catcher from the Jingzhao Yin Mansion shouted.
Outside the door, the sword sheath was unsheathed, and the soldiers of the Hanging Sword Division were ready to go.
After a while, someone opened a crack in the door, and saw a few catchers at the door, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
When he slowly pushed open the door, he saw that there were still a group of people hiding on the left and right, and his face suddenly changed: "There is ......"
Before he finished speaking, he was blocked by a sword, and he fell backwards and clutched his throat and couldn't speak.
"Rush!"
The men of the Hanging Sword Division rushed ahead, and the soldiers of the forbidden army cooperated, and the two sides quickly occupied the main roads in the courtyard, and then pushed the doors of each room one by one to check.
"Exposed, kill out!" I don't know who shouted, and the spies hiding in various places in the courtyard rushed out with weapons.
Then he saw the soldiers of the forbidden army full of armor, and the cold crossbow arrows were shooting head-on.
……
At dawn, the sky is bright.
"Young Master, wake up!"
Woke up by the shaking, Fang Jue rubbed his eyes and said, "They went out?" ”
"It's not...... Someone is coming, the forbidden army, the streets are full of forbidden army people! ”
Fang Jue was stunned for a moment and looked towards the bottom of the tower.
The view is excellent and you can overlook several streets.
Between the Tower of Babel and the Drunken Immortal Tower, as well as on the two adjacent streets, there were already soldiers of the forbidden army.
It can be said that this drunken immortal building is surrounded by water, unless Bai Qing can also fly, he will inevitably be caught.
"Young Master, is Your Majesty worried that Bai Qing will hurt the young master, so he will send the forbidden army to arrest him?" Dianyi understands everything.
Fang Jue nodded: "It should be so, but we still have to make a move." ”
"Why?"
"Your Majesty has already made a statement, and I should also make a statement, and on the day we disappear, there must be an explanation, otherwise it will be a knot for Your Majesty after all."
It's like two couples, one of them goes out all day and doesn't return all night, and they can't contact anyone.
What would the other think?
We have to do something and explain it clearly, so that we don't always have this matter in each other's hearts in the future, and it will be difficult to trust each other.
"Commander Mo is here......"
Dian Yi has excellent eyesight, even if he is more than a hundred feet away, he can still see Mo Yuan who appeared downstairs at the door of the Drunken Immortal Building.
Mo Yuan was dressed in gold armor, which was the symbol of his commander of the forbidden army, and it was also the glory given by the emperor.
With the armor on his body, it looks like he's ready to fight.
"Commander Mo...... What kind of wind is blowing you here, it's really a disappointment, haha......"
The owner of the Drunken Immortal Building, who is also the shopkeeper, was woken up and knew that the forbidden army was coming, so he immediately came to greet him.
"Shopkeeper Shi doesn't have to be polite, I'm here on official business." Mo Yuan said lightly.
"Official business?"
Shi Shen's face was surprised: "We are in the Drunken Immortal Building, we haven't committed any royal laws, how can we have Commander Lao Mo come here in person?" ”
In this capital, being the shopkeeper on the first floor of the world, Shi Shen originally had a lot of pressure, and what he was most afraid of was provoking the official real power figures.
was already a big move, and if you don't take advantage of it, it will really come to an end.
"Don't worry, Shopkeeper Shi, I'm not here for you Drunken Immortal Tower, I'm just here to get an enemy spy, and it has nothing to do with you." Mo Yuan said in a big way.
Shi Shen breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good...... Please also ask the brothers of the forbidden army, be careful when you act, there are many dignitaries and nobles here to stay overnight, and we can't afford to offend Drunken Immortal Building. ”
"This is our Drunken Immortal Building, thank you to all the brothers."
As he spoke, Shi Shen skillfully took out a few silver tickets and secretly stuffed them to Mo Yuan.
Mo Yuan was furious: "What are you doing!" How can such and such be bribed by you? ”
As he spoke, he pushed it away.
Lu Xin, the deputy commander, walked over and gave Shi Shen a look, who immediately understood and stuffed the silver ticket to Lu Xin.
Mo Yuan didn't seem to see this scene, so he had already waved his hand and led people into the Drunken Immortal Tower.
……
The thirtieth floor of the drunken immortal building, in the upper room of the Tianzi number.
The two of them opened the window slightly and looked downstairs, but there was no sign of the street.
The Forbidden Army acted quite carefully, and there was not a single Forbidden Army in sight from this angle.
However, the two of them were a little suspicious.
"It's dawn, why aren't there any vendors, ready to start?" Qin Mengchi was delicate and felt that the streets were too deserted.
This is Jinling, or the most prosperous area of the drunken fairy building, and it should be busy before dawn.
In this way, it seems that someone has deliberately cleaned the streets.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps going upstairs, and the clanging sound of armor and weapons colliding.
"It seems that we have really been betrayed...... Bai Qing no longer hesitated, and immediately took out a bundle of slender ropes from the burden on the bed.
Come to the window, push half of the window open, and move the heavy wooden bed to the window, with one end of the rope tied to the foot of the bed.
Then throw the rope downward.
Seeing this, Qin Mengchi nodded: "You go first, I'll take your place." ”
"What are you kidding, I'm a man, you go first, I can resist for a while."
"This rope can only go down to twenty floors, and when the time comes, you can only jump down layer by layer, and the soles of your shoes are slippery, and you will jump off."
Qin Mengchi looked at this man in a daze, and suddenly felt that this pretended couple didn't seem to be so fake.
"Let's go!"
Qin Mengchi was directly pushed down by Bai Qing, she had no choice but to pull the rope and use her sleeves as a buffer, and she slipped to the twentieth layer within a dozen breaths.
As soon as she landed, she felt that the soles of her shoes were slippery, and she almost couldn't stand on the tile, so she kicked off a pair of shoes, let go of the rope, and continued to jump down.
Bai Qing saw that the forbidden army had not yet arrived at the door, and he didn't waste time, he flew out of the window with a leap, attached the cotton cloth of the wrapper to the palm of his hand, and slid down at great speed.
"Someone jumped out of the window!"
The forbidden army below discovered Qin Mengchi.
Bai Qing was still falling, and he felt a crossbow arrow coming, and rushing out of the short sword was a block.
Those crossbow arrows were shot at the wall, or they were bounced away, but they missed a single arrow, after all, the number was too small, so why not be such a master.
"Jumping out of the window?" Mo Yuan took the lead, ran to the thirtieth floor, kicked the door open and grabbed it, guarding against a hidden weapon.
Then he turned around and saw a rope tied to the foot of the bed in front of the window, and the door was wide open.
"They jumped out of the window."
After he immediately shouted, he chased down the rope, today's forbidden army strictly guards these streets, if he is still escaped by Bai Qing, he Mo Yuan is embarrassed to think that he is the first in the world.
However, in order to prevent the two of them, and then escape back through the rope, Mo Yuan cut the rope and fell freely.
After about five floors, he reached out and grabbed a cornice, slowed down his body and continued to fall down, and so on and so forth, he really saw the backs of Bai Qing and the woman.
