Chapter 84: Straight to the Lair
The weather in spring is subject to change.
Two hours ago, the moonlight was like water, charming and romantic, and in an instant, black clouds overwhelmed the city, lightning and thunder.
More than a dozen war horses galloped wildly in the dark night, and the rolled water splashed to form a thick mist. The crisp sound of horses' hooves echoed on the stone pavements of the imperial city, and it was particularly loud.
Less than ten miles away from the Xianyang City Tower, you can hear the terrible roar from time to time, accompanied by rolling thunder, like the howl of the devil in the depths of hell, hitting the fragility in the depths of the heart, and making people even more frightened and numb.
The houses near the city tower, row upon row, scattered, the recent neighborhood of the Qiantou opinion is quite large, for a time the house prices plummeted, even the original day and night full of guest houses are now full of birds.
I don't know how long the city tower will be hung for a felon, and I have to be scared out of my neurology if I stay here for a few nights.
It is reported that the warlock Confucian Sheng, who originally planned to be killed, was extrajudicially merciful, punished and sentenced to servitude, but several thorns refused to repent.
I don't know who came up with a bad idea, and tied them up like grasshoppers, and did not beat and scold, so that after listening to the terrible screams of the whole night, they completely broke their will to hold on, and all of them gave in the next day.
Listening to the creepy screams day and night, the officers and soldiers of the guards were tormented out of the shadows, and Nei Shi Teng's opinions were also quite large, Zhang Han really couldn't bear the pressure, and promised to show the public for another three days, no matter whether there was any gain or not, it must be stopped.
When Zhang Han saw Yingyu and his party coming, tears of surprise filled his eyes.
He's so stressed these days.
He usually walks with his head held high and does not squint, but now he finds that his colleagues look at him with little respect in their eyes, and even with contempt, and he is ashamed and eager to turn into the mouse hole.
It's a shame that a deep prison can lose a felon.
"Is there any change?" Yingyu asked.
"Not yet!"
Zhang Han looked bitter, and then waved his hand, and his subordinates spread out the map, which turned out to be a simple map of the latest drawing of a radius of ten miles from the city gate tower.
Zhang Han said to the position where he had drawn a few circles, "The best sniper points to shoot the city gate tower are these positions, we have all ambushed heavy troops, once we move, it is difficult to fly." ”
"Did you scare the snake?" Yingyu Road.
"Probably not!" Zhang Han's tone was not very sure.
After all, the sudden increase of hundreds of terrifying Great Qin Ruishi went deep into the residential area, not to mention Zhao Gao, even the ordinary capital of Qiandu knew that it was arming.
"I have a hunch that Zhao Gao will definitely make a move tonight." Yingyu looked at the dark night sky.
"The same way I feel." Zhang Han looked at the dripping rain, "This kind of rainy night is the easiest to breed evil, and it is also easy to wash away evil!" ”
"Commander Zhang Han, withdraw your people, just say that the rain and night are freezing and can't stand it, and the outside is loose and the inside is tight." Yingyu continued, "Tanuki, release your army of detectives!" ”
"Beast Bug Detective?" Zhang Han's eyes suddenly burned, "How did I forget this stubble?" This is the treasure of the battlefield! ”
"Give me a quiet room, and no one is allowed to disturb me!"
Yu Li'er proudly raised her snow-white chin to Yingyu, and clearly wrote, "Now you know how good I am, right?" ”
"Tanuki, please!" Zhang Han immediately cleaned up a camp tent.
Yingyu naturally wanted to follow up, but was unceremoniously kicked out by Yu Li'er.
Unexpectedly, although Yingyu was not angry on the surface, the corners of her mouth were secretly raised, and her divine sense was let go like ripples, but she saw that the small box on the back of Yu Li'er was actually a bird cage, with an electric falcon the size of a pigeon, a golden swallow, and an owl.
I didn't expect it to be a bird.
The raccoon pointed to the map and arranged the tasks in front of the birds sitting in rows.
"The King, in charge of the first district. Princess, in charge of the second district. Yingyu, in charge of the third district. Do you understand? ”
"Poof......
Yingyu in the voyeur almost took a mouthful of old blood, but she didn't expect that she was the ugliest owl.
The lieutenant squirmed and fed the scout some unknown insects, and deliberately beat the owl angrily.
The owl suddenly pounced on her in anger and anger, but as soon as the civet played the bone flute, the owl immediately curled up honestly, anthropomorphically bowed his head and bowed his knees.
Yu Li'er's expression was extremely satisfied: "Yingyu, you have to listen to this girl's words, be obedient, that's it, this girl will give you delicious food." ”
"Vozh...... This girl ...... "Yingyu couldn't cry or laugh.
Perhaps these specially trained scouts were not afraid of thunderstorms and disappeared into the night sky in an instant.
……
Yingyu made a gesture and unloaded the box slightly.
"Commander Zhang Han, this is strong wine, let the brothers drive away the cold. During the duty period, each person should take one sip and not drink more. ”
"I've been hungry for this for a long time!"
Zhang Han's eyes were scorching, and he rubbed the wine jar warmly, his face was ruthless, "The Ninth Prince is under the military order, and when I have something to gain tonight, I will celebrate again!" ”
After speaking, he was reluctant to give up and gently closed the lid of the box.
"Xiong Man, put the statue on the city wall, and let it walk."
This is, Zhang Han found that Xiong Man was carrying a wooden box more than one person high, and a moment later, "Yingyu" and "Yin Yan" appeared in the city gate tower, and paced back and forth, as if consoling the city tower guards.
The deliberate torches make the figures of the two particularly clear.
A quarter of an hour later, the owl flew back.
"Quick, Area Three." Yu Li'er exclaimed excitedly.
The voice did not fall.
A six-foot-long, baby-sized arm-thick crossbow arrow pierced through the continuous rain curtain, with a sharp sonic boom of breaking wind, whistling, and the sound of "Peng" shot through the chest of the city tower "Yingyu".
The huge potential energy took off with the "Yingyu", and with the "duang", it fell to the ground and turned into fragments.
At the same moment, the whistling arrows missed the remnants hanging from the city gate.
Zhang Han yelled: "Pull the prisoner up!" At the same time, a signal sounded arrows, and countless black-pressed Iron Eagle swordsmen rushed towards Area Three.
Ying Yu looked at the sacrificial terracotta figurines, not only her scalp was numb.
The command center was three miles away from Area 3, and Yingyu jumped on the fire cloud, followed Zhang Han and his cronies, and shot towards the destination.
Arriving at Area Three, the world seems to have returned to dead silence.
Because a curfew had already been imposed on residents, it was impossible to see where the sniper was coming from.
If every household had been investigated, the assassin would have disappeared without a trace.
"It's this inn!" The raccoon pointed to a building road.
"Arrest!" Zhang Han took the lead and led the officers and soldiers to pounce into the guest house like wolves.
The door slammed open directly.
For a while, chickens and dogs jumped in the inn.
The guest house has three floors. In addition to the normal accommodation, the third floor was empty, leaving four large crossbows lined up in a row, and the direction was the city gate tower.
Obviously, after succeeding at this moment, they will either hide among the guests or have already fled!
And the entire store has mysteriously disappeared.
"The iron barrels surrounded here are general, with three layers inside and three layers outside, and it is unlikely that you can escape!" Zhang Han's eyes were gloomy as water, and he swept around the shivering guest like a hungry wolf.
And Yingyu came to the bottom floor, and her divine consciousness was released like ripples.
Finally found out the strange.
There is actually an authentic tunnel in the firewood room.
And within the scope of the divine sense, there are still two or three people in the tunnel who are quickly crawling and fleeing......
"Commander Zhang Han, firewood house, authentic ......"
As soon as Yingyu's words fell, the officers and soldiers like wolves and tigers flew towards the firewood room, lifted the barrier, and really found a black and swarthy hole, but the entrance was blocked by a huge stone.
The officers and men scratched their ears and cheeks, but they couldn't exert their strength.
"I'll take a look!"
Yingyu pretended to come with the boulder and quietly put it in the explosives box.
"You all stand back, wait for me to attract the power of heavenly thunder and blast this place away!"
"Heavenly thunder? Bang on? Zhang Han and a cadre of officers and soldiers looked at Yingyu in shock.
"We'll find out later! Withdraw them all! Yingyu said incomprehensibly.
Then I came to the guest house yard dam, opened my arms, and looked at the sky.
"O gods! Give me the power to smash these ghosts! ”
As he spoke, a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky.
And Yingyu pointed to the firewood room, "Blast it!" ”
As soon as the words fell, a loud bang of "Bang Kaka" exploded in everyone's ears, like the sky falling apart, deafening, and the entire guest house was smashed and trembled.
Yu Li'er's apricot eyes were round, full of shock and puzzlement, and she looked at Yingyu's eyes, with a hint of admiration.
The smoke receded.
Zhang Han's subordinates pounced like wolves.
Military merit is not easy to earn!
These are all extremely vicious people, and the three people with a head comparable to the battlefield are all military merits!
"Commander Zhang Han, if it were you, where should this tunnel lead?" Yingyu looked at Zhang Handao, who was about to pounce.
Zhang Han was like a middle power, and then shouted: "Order! All crossbows were aimed at the outside of the tower.
At the same time, look for the hole along the embankment outside the city walls. ”
"Boom." The sound of horses' hooves rushed out of the city.
"As long as you find the exit of the tunnel, one wall at both ends, none of these rats can escape!" Yingyu's eyes were gloomy.
"Commander Zhang Han, you just need to send someone to guard the entrance of the firewood room, I don't know the situation in the cave, there is no need to make worthless sacrifices, it's time for my lieutenant to perform!" Excitement burned in the eyes of the lieutenant.
"Good!" Zhang Han simply worshiped the two of them as gods, and of course obeyed his words.
Maybe it was to show off, Yu Li'er drank everyone back, but he didn't avoid Yingyu, and took off a turquoise belt from his waist, but he didn't expect the belt to get up, and rubbed his head on Tanuki'er's face.
“⊙o⊙?”
"There are so many names for this ghost girl! If you are not careful, will you fall into her way? ”
Yingyu was stunned for a moment, this was actually a bamboo leaf green king snake.
"Jiu'er, gather your army of poisonous insects and enter the cave to catch whoever bites!"
"Huh? You don't like the name Jiu'er? I also think it's a pig's head to call Jiu'er. Or call you a queen......"
"Poof......
Yingyu almost squirted out a mouthful of old blood!
Afterwards, Yu Li'er muttered again, whispering words that Yingyu couldn't understand, and communicated with the queen.
The queen sinks into the hole with a bolt of lightning.
The raccoon played the bone flute, which matched the queen's hiss.
After a while, who would have thought that under this land, there were countless centipedes, poisonous snakes, and even mutated rats, rushing towards the cave in black pressure.
"General Zhang Han, just leave a few big crossbows here and aim them at the entrance of the cave. Your center of gravity is outside the city walls, find the exit of the cave first, and we will catch the turtles in the urn and catch them all! ”
"No!"
Zhang Han hit his chest with his right fist, and he solemnly accepted his order as if he was facing his boss.
Then the wind galloped away.
……
"That...... How many hole cards do you have? ”
Yingyu looked at Yu Li'er and was a little worried, the unpredictable methods are subverting Yingyu's cognition!
"As for you, be nice to this girl. Good food, good drink and good wine for this girl, the key is to be obedient, the previous things, forget it! Wei Li'er put his hands behind his back, half-tilted his head, and looked proud.
"What happened before?" Yingyu pretended to be stunned, and then raised her head higher, "I am a messenger of God, listen to you?" Serving as an attendant for you? Joke! ”!
Yu Li'er's face turned red, gritted his teeth and said hatefully: "You ruffian, it was that pig's trotters who bullied me, I know very well, if you don't coax me well, this matter can't be passed!" ”
Then the clouds turned clear, and he said curiously, "Why don't you teach me how to release thunder?" This matter is settled! ”
"Huh. Big deal for you to bite me again! ”
Yingyu immediately smiled evilly, "Either I'll suffer a little loss and let you taste my little fish?" The tip of the tongue is a small fish, which was deleted before. ”
"You're going to die?!" Yu Li'er suddenly squatted down in shame, covering her face with her hands.
……
Suddenly, the rumbling hooves of the horses sounded again, and a sharp man jumped off the horse with a happy face: "Yupan Longjun, if you really found the exit hole outside the city wall, and shot two people on the spot." ”
"Good! Lao Tzu wants to trap this group of rats in the gutter completely! Yingyu struck her right fist to her left palm, greatly relieved.
As he spoke, a green shadow shot out and circled around Wei Li'er's waist.
The two sides exchanged words in their own languages, and Yu Li'er was shocked: "Quick, there is another exit, in the tomb of King Wu of Qin!" ”
This place is less than ten miles away from the tomb of King Qin Wu, Yingyu roared eagerly: "Go to the Yongling Tomb at full speed, be sure to block them before they come out!"
At the same time, the city guards were notified to besiege Yongling with heavy iron barrels. ”
"Prepare oil and brimstone, and light wood at the mouth of this cave, and keep the fire unquenched."
Yingyu ordered again, "Hundreds of people here hold big crossbows, and they take turns guarding the entrance of the cave day and night, and no fly can let go of one!" ”
After speaking, he jumped on the fire cloud, and with hundreds of elites, rode his horse in the direction of Yongling, and at the same time couldn't help but admire, "Zhao Gao has been operating here for decades, and he has three holes of cunning rabbits, this is a hole!"
Who would have thought that one of the old nests was actually hidden in the imperial tomb, and the secret passage of the imperial tomb led directly outside the city.
It is estimated that the secret passage of the guest house is newly excavated, forming a T-shaped secret passage, as long as the passage of the emperor's tomb is blocked, this nest of trapped beasts will be completely extinct.
Xianyang Taishou Nei Shi Teng heard that one of Zhao Gao's lairs was actually the Yongling Tomb, and he was shocked and sounded the alarm, and for a while, the imperial city was like a giant beast that woke up, opening its hideous fangs.
In the middle of the night, Xianyang was like an earthquake, and the earth shook the mountains.
Under the orderly command and arrangement, the light cavalry, the heavy ironclad army, and the baggage troops flocked to Yongling like a tide.
Yingyu changed into a guard costume and arrived first among the shadow guards, and saw several shadowy figures swaying from a distance, unable to distinguish whether they were the tomb guards or the lurking assassins.
"Rest and Rest ......"
Arrow feathers roared with a life-threatening wind-breaking sonic boom.
"Be careful!"
No matter how high the martial arts are, they are afraid of cold arrows.
The advance cavalry team was immediately in disarray.
The Thirteen Eagles quickly shifted and protected Yingyu in the center.
The laws of Great Qin are quite strict, if Yingyu is lost, the Thirteen Eagles will definitely die, and guarding this Yingyu may not necessarily die, even if he dies in battle, he will be Yuyin's family.
"Puff ......"
The two guards were hit by arrows, and they were taken off into the air by the momentum of the arrows, and the "winter" fell to the ground, and the dust immediately flew up.
Death was so close, Yingyu was stunned, she didn't expect Yu Sin to be well-trained and extremely tenacious, and he actually dared to confront the army head-on.
Yingyu, who had never had battlefield experience, almost gave a direct order: "Retreat!" ”
Even if there is a bomb, it will not be able to drop two miles!
