Chapter 357: Xia Dan's Trip
It was a huge wooden door two feet high, surrounded by torches, and hundreds of guards patrolled back and forth in formation, spears in their hands, still in good spirits even at night.
On top of the surrounding walls, countless archers stood.
On both sides, there are two watchtowers tens of meters high, on which there are a total of four people, who are divided into south, east, west, and northwest to monitor, and if they find anything, they will ring the huge bell above their heads.
With such strict protection, it shows that there must be something unusual in this huge wooden door.
"Young master, what's in there?"
Using telepathic communication, Chenxing asked.
"I don't know about this yet, but I'll know soon!"
The corners of his mouth curved a little, and an imperative light appeared in Dongfang Xiuzhe's eyes.
Chenxing also laughed, she had always looked forward to such a thing, and had imagined the feeling of going on adventures with the little master more than once.
"Young master, I can easily deal with these hundreds of guards in front of the door, but the archers on the city wall, and the people on the tower......"
Chenxing muttered.
"It would be great if we could get in without alerting anyone!"
Dongfang Xiuzhe squinted his eyes slightly, thinking of a way in his head.
He came here to steal treasures, and he didn't want to do superfluous things, and he knew that once a place like the palace caused a riot, there would be a steady stream of people rushing over.
"Young Master, why don't we use the stealth technique!" Chen Xing said.
"It's a bad idea, our purpose is to walk through that door, although they won't notice us at first, but as soon as that door makes a sound, it will immediately arouse everyone's vigilance!"
Dongfang Xiuzhe frowned as he spoke, and at this moment, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind. With a bold idea to come.
The guards were still dutifully patrolling, and the surroundings were very quiet, except for the sound of burning torches, the grinding of the armor on their bodies as they walked back and forth.
None of the people guarding here are talking to each other, and any wind and grass is enough to attract everyone's attention!
"Who is it?"
At this moment, a slight sound of footsteps suddenly came from the darkness, which immediately aroused the vigilance of the patrol guards, and the spear in his hand immediately assumed a posture of stabbing forward.
With this shout. Almost everyone's eyes were cast.
The archers on the city wall had already drawn their bows and wound them, and the people on the watchtower had already put their hands on the stakes that rang the bell, and the atmosphere around them had suddenly become solemn.
In the darkness, two people slowly walked out.
Seeing these two people, the solemn atmosphere just now suddenly disappeared again, followed by the sound of the guards bowing one after another.
"My subordinates see our emperor!"
Looking at these people who fell to the ground, Dongfang Xiuzhe was secretly happy in his heart. He used the art of illusion to transform into the form of the emperor.
"Get up, I'm here this time, just to take a look, what you should do!"
Learn the tone of the emperor. Dongfang Xiuzhe said with a shelf.
Chenxing stood beside him, transformed into a palace maid, but did not show any flaws.
"It's been safe lately, I'm going to take a look inside. "Come to the huge wooden door. Dongfang Xiuzhe said in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, you need a token to enter inside...... "One of the guards said in a slurred voice.
"Hmph. I'm going to take a look and ask for tokens, do you think I'm fake?"
Glaring at him, Dongfang Xiu's philosophy is really intriguing, and the reason why he can be so similar is also due to his use of the "Soul Searching Method".
"Don't dare!" the guard immediately fell to his knees.
Dongfang Xiuzhe reached into his arms, threw a token made of pure gold at the man's feet, and snorted coldly: "Can I go in now?"
The guard was already frightened into a cold sweat, picked up the token on the ground, didn't dare to look at it more, and then lowered his head in fear and offered it with both hands.
The wooden door was opened, and Dongfang Xiuzhe and Chenxing walked in easily.
The guard, still kneeling on the ground, did not even dare to breathe, until the wooden door closed again, and his face softened.
Walking through the wooden door, it was illuminated by countless torches as if it were daylight.
On each side of the stone-paved road, a row of soldiers like stone sculptures stood, motionless.
"The emperor is here, why don't you hurry up and salute!"
Chenxing suddenly shouted, and then secretly stuck out his tongue at Dongfang Xiuzhe.
No one thought that the emperor, who had always been addicted to wine, would come here, which was really surprising and surprising to everyone.
In front of the stone paving road, a huge stone gate stands in front of it, and the atmosphere is magnificent, like a giant's shield blocking the front.
Dongfang Xiuzhe and Chenxing passed through this stone gate very smoothly, but the lights inside were a little dim, and they didn't see the guards.
After walking forward for about ten minutes, I saw a huge metal door appear in front of me like a mountain.
Not far in front of the metal door, several old men who were lying in front of the stone table to keep accounts heard the footsteps, and they all stopped the pens in their hands.
When he saw that the person who came was actually the current emperor, he hurriedly came over to salute.
"I'm going to take a look inside, you open the door!"
This is not the first time that Dongfang Xiuzhe has said this kind of rhetoric.
Several old men looked at each other, but they didn't move.
"Do you want tokens too, it's really troublesome!"
Dongfang Xiuzhe took out the token that he had searched from the emperor's body again.
However, this time, it seemed that it was no longer useful, and several old men still had no intention of opening the door.
Just as Dongfang Xiuzhe was about to roar symbolically, an old man said in a hoarse voice: "Emperor Qi, this door weighs more than 20,000 catties, if you want to open it, you need to use the keys of the three treasury divisions to open the mechanism, it's not that the ministers are unwilling to open the door for the emperor." ”
Dongfang Xiuzhe frowned, and said secretly in his heart: There is still such a thing, no wonder there is no soldier here!
Looking up at the huge black metal door, Dongfang Xiuzhe thought to himself: With his own strength, there should be no problem in pushing it open, right?
Taking a step back, even if he couldn't push it open, he used the "fire melting technique" he had learned to open a hole in the metal door that could be entered. It should still be possible!
After figuring out this matter, Dongfang Xiuzhe's figure flashed, and he disappeared in place all of a sudden.
Immediately afterwards, I saw that these old men passed out one after another.
"There's a treasure inside, and we're one step closer to success!"
Using the Yin and Yang Eyes, Dongfang Xiuzhe had already seen the situation inside the metal door.
An enchantment was placed around the area to prevent sound from spreading, and then both hands suddenly pressed on the metal door, only to hear a "click" sound, and the metal door slowly opened.
The moment the door was opened, a dazzling light suddenly shot out from inside.
Look at the piles of gold and jewels inside. As well as all kinds of strange items and utensils, Dongfang Xiuzhe didn't feel anything, and the Chenxing behind him suddenly opened his mouth wide, and countless stars flashed out of his eyes.
The rest of the matter is much simpler, two hungry wolves, entering a place where food is stored, simply not letting go of any corner.
The huge vault, a moment of work, was emptied by the two of them. In the end, even the two huge metal doors were not spared.
This is simply more robber than a robber!
When the things were in hand, Dongfang Xiuzhe and Chenxing immediately flashed, and when they returned to Dongfang Mansion on a giant bird. The people who guarded the treasury did not know what was happening.
The old men who were knocked out woke up faintly, when they saw the treasury that had guarded them for half their lives. There was no gate anymore, and he fainted gorgeously again.
The next day, I originally thought that the entire "Lan Yu Country" would be in chaos. But what is surprising is that it is unusually calm.
It seems that the news of the emperor's disappearance and the theft of the treasury was deliberately suppressed.
Dongfang Xiuzhe didn't care much about these political matters, and he didn't even care much about the treasures he moved from the treasury.
After all, he has had too many similar experiences, and there may be too many such good things in the future.
In contrast, Chenxing was very excited, locked in a room with her sister Chenyue, and began to admire the glowing things.
Women seem to be more enthusiastic about this!
Dongfang Xiuzhe was not idle, he went to the Mercenary Association, hired hundreds of mercenaries, and escorted the former Minister of Finance and Taxation and his daughter Chang Wenting, plus more than 300 babies, to the Tieqin Empire, which was his territory.
Because he was worried that something would happen on the way, Dongfang Xiuzhe ordered dozens of beans to accompany him.
After settling these down, Dongfang Xiuzhe began to go door-to-door with the ministers who jointly framed his father back then.
When this qiē was done, it was already three days later.
Early in the morning, Dongfang Xiuzhe, Chenyue, Chenxing, Li Erniu and Lei Ya began to move towards "Xia Danguo".
In the "Xia Dan Country", there is still a guy who needs to be solved, that is, the remote general who designed to almost kill Dongfang Long on the battlefield back then-Yi Xiqi!
If it weren't for this person, his father would not have been seriously injured and almost died, and Dongfang Xiuzhe himself would not have been seriously injured because of treating his father's injuries.
If it weren't for this person, Li Erniu's brother wouldn't have died trying to block an arrow for Dongfang Long.
Of course, in addition to killing this person, there was another thing that needed to be done: Dongfang Xiuzhe planned to call back the shadow five who had been lurking by Yi Xiqi's side.
Sitting on Chenyue's pet beast giant bird, "Xia Danguo" arrived in just a few hours.
Ask the locals about it, and the residence of the remote general will be easily found.
It's just that what Dongfang Xiuzhe didn't expect was that they went to the empty place this time, Yi Xiqi was not in the mansion, and he had been away for several weeks, and no one knew where they went.
In the end, the secret method in the yin-yang technique was connected to Ying Wu, who had been with Yi Xiqi, and only then did he know Yi Xiqi's whereabouts.
It turned out to be in the "Dark Auction House"!(To be continued......)
