Chapter 17 Finding the Fortune in Jinling City
At night, Zhang Wuji infiltrated the heavily guarded Jinling City.
This Jinling is the ancient capital, the city is high and strong, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Moreover, Jinling City is the key place in the south of the Yangtze River, and the account books of the taxes, money, grain, and people of the provinces in the south of the Yangtze River are all here.
Zhu Yuanzhang got this strong city, which can be said to be like a tiger with wings.
When Zhang Wuji went north for the second time, he once lived here.
It's just that I feel that "Jinling Song and Dance, Qinhuai Fengyue" is worthy of its name. It's just that now that time has passed, although it is still spacious, it has lost its former prosperity.
Zhu Yuanzhang sent a lot of soldiers to guard Jinling City, and patrolled day and night, and even had a direct curfew every night. It seems to prevent the masters of the Ming Sect from sneaking into the city.
Zhu Yuanzhang is not afraid that the masters of the Ming Sect will rescue Zhu Jiuzhen and others, but he is afraid that these masters will take their own heads.
He has gone from being a monk who stole cattle from a dilapidated temple to becoming the current overlord of Jiangnan, which can be said to have gone through all kinds of hardships and hardships, and he will not let himself be like Cao Cao and Sima Zhao, and fall the day before his deeds are about to be completed.
Although Zhu Yuanzhang's garrison was very strict, Zhang Wuji's light feats were unparalleled in the world. It was easy to cross the walls of Jinling City and come to the inner city.
But Jinling City is very big, as for where Zhu Jiuzhen and the others are, Zhang Wuji can't find them for a while.
Just when Zhang Wuji was distressed, a ghostly figure caught his attention.
Although the figure was in a fast form, it had disappeared in an instant. But Zhang Wuji caught up with him easily.
He's fast, he's faster!
And this person also noticed a strong wind passing by him, and his heart was overjoyed at the moment.
Ran to the figure in front of him.
When this person came closer, he immediately knelt on one knee and shouted happily: "Subordinate Wei Yixiao to see the sect leader!" ”
Zhang Wuji smiled when he heard this: "King Wei Bat please, but I don't know how King Wei Bat knows that the deity is back?" ”
Wei Yixiao stood up excitedly, dusted off the dust on his body and said: "Although his subordinates are not talented, he thinks that he is alone in the rivers and lakes, and the only one in the world who can catch up with his subordinates is the sect leader." Who is it if it's not the return of the sect leader? ”
Wei smiled and said excitedly, "Sect Master, you can come back." During the days when you were not in the Central Plains, the entire Central Plains turned against the sky. ”
Zhang Wuji waved his hand and said, "King Wei Bat doesn't need to say more, Yang Zuo and Lord Liu have already told me these things. ”
Wei Yi smiled and stopped, but finally he said, "Oh? In that case, how should the sect leader deal with Zhao Junyong? ”
"Zhao Junyong?" Zhang Wuji asked suspiciously, "What's the matter with him?" ”
Wei Yi smiled and sighed and said, "Alas! It seems that Yang Zuo made Gu Nian's brotherhood in the past avoid the important and light. Zhao Jun used this guy to compete with Mao Gui for military power in Qilu, and finally killed Mao Gui's brothers. It caused civil strife among the rebel brothers in the land of Qilu. It is precisely because of this guy's selfish desire that the Yellow River was unguarded and smuggled by the Yuan soldiers, and the Yuan soldiers quietly came to the periphery of Bianliang within two days. As a result, we were caught off guard and lost the external barrier. ”
"So there's still this!?" Zhang Wuji muttered and asked, "Zhao Junyong I know that he was once an old subordinate of Yang Zuo's envoy, but Yang Zuo's envoy is not a person who does not distinguish between right and wrong, why is he so protective of this person this time?" ”
Wei Yi replied with a smile: "This is because Zhao Junyong had a life-saving grace for Yang Zuo back then. Yang Zuo's move may be to repay the kindness of the past. ”
Zhang Wuji nodded, and then he said, "Since Yang Zuo wants to save him, then let's give him this face." Don't let Yang Zuo make it too difficult to come to the stage. ”
Wei Yi smiled and asked, "Does the sect leader mean to let this traitor go?" But if this matter is not pursued."
Wei Yixiao didn't finish speaking, Zhang Wuji continued: "Let him sacrifice his life for the country." ”
Wei Yixiao was directly stunned when he heard this, and after being stunned for a long time, Wei Yixiao said, "My subordinates receive orders." ”
Zhang Wuji asked at this time: "King Wei Bat, you have been investigating here these days, I don't know if you can know the location of Jiuzhen, Uncle, Master Wuzhuang and others?" ”
Wei Yi replied with a smile: "Zhu Niangniang is now the stand-in of the sect leader, and she and Wu Niangniang are now under house arrest in the back office of the Jinling Taishou Mansion. But the sect leader doesn't have to worry, although Zhu Yuanzhang has a heart of disobedience, he needs the banner of the Son of Heaven, and now he has not poisoned Zhu Niangniang. It's just that there's no way to know where Yin Xian's nephew and Wu Lie's old boy are locked up. The subordinates have also been investigating. But I didn't have any clues. ”
Zhang Wuji nodded silently when he heard this. He said, "Very well, the Bat King has had a hard trip. Next, the matter of visiting his uncle and the master of the martial arts village will have to worry about the Bat King. As for Jiuzhen's side, I'll go and see it first. ”
Wei smiled and said, "Sect Master, that is too well guarded. Even if they are subordinates, they can only touch the periphery. The sect leader is a golden body, and I am afraid that it is not appropriate to get involved in danger. ”
Zhang Wuji sneered and said: "The Bat King underestimated me, if I want to go to the place, no one in this world can stop me." Okay, Bat King, you go and find your uncle and the others first. I'm just looking for news. Now is not the time to startle the snake. Now that I have returned to Middle-earth, the day of a resurgence is just around the corner. Zhu Yuanzhang, a little praying mantis, how can he stop the army of our Mingjiao? ”
Seeing the confidence on Zhang Wuji's face, Wei Yixiao felt that the reliable sect leader from before was back. Immediately, he didn't say anything more, pointed out the direction for Zhang Wuji, and told him that he was hiding in the coffin in the coffin shop in the west of the city, and he took three steps and disappeared into the vast night.
Zhang Wuji followed Wei Yixiao's guidance to the periphery of the Jinling Taishou Mansion.
Compared to other places, the garrison here is more tightly guarded, and the patrolling soldiers hold torches high, and piles of firewood are lit around it, illuminating the entire Taishou Mansion as bright as day.
Zhang Wuji also understood why Wei Yixiao didn't break in rashly.
Mo said that he was a big living person, and even if a fly flew in, it would be discovered by these patrolling soldiers.
In the face of such a tight garrison, it is difficult for the masters of this world to break in without being discovered.
It's much easier to kill in the current situation than to dive in.
But Zhang Wuji is not a master, but a "human immortal". His light skill was higher than Wei Yixiao.
What Wei Yixiao couldn't do, there was nothing he couldn't do here.
Zhang Wuji squatted on the eaves, silently waiting, waiting for the clouds to cover the moon and the gap between the patrolling armor soldiers in rotation.
Finally, a quarter of an hour later, Zhang Wuji waited for this opportunity. He immediately performed light skills like bullets, passed through the layers of guards, and ran towards the inner courtyard where Zhu Jiuzhen was.
Zhang Wuji's light infiltration did not attract the attention of others, everyone just felt a gust of wind passing by, blowing the light and shadow on the torches.
After all, these ordinary soldiers can't imagine that there are really people in this world who are so fast.
Zhang Wuji stopped after running to the inner office. stood outside the door of Zhu Jiuzhen's room.
