Chapter 416: Hearing a Voice from Under the Water
Bestow heavenly punishment?
Kono used to hear this and feel terrified and terrified of something supernatural.
But since he knew that An Yuanjun's spell inherited from the Protector God Clan was actually a trick to deceive and deceive, he had great doubts about the statement of heavenly punishment.
I don't want to hear Iwasaburo deceive himself anymore and get down to business.
"Iwasa-kun, don't we need to learn the Beidi people's coping methods and create an illusion again?"
"No need, this is Xuanwu Lake, not Fuya Street, besides, the small island in the middle of Xuanwu Lake is so close to here, who would have thought that we would go around the lake and go straight down the river into the moat?"
The small island in the middle of the lake is a private domain, and the government has to avoid three points.
After nightfall, except for the lanterns on the Shenjia Bridge in the distance, which emitted light, and the guards on duty were rare, it was as quiet as a paradise.
Long before An Yuanjun had an accident, Iwasa Saburo arranged for manpower and decided to rent a big ship here, and send the silver to the moat outside the moat under the pretext of Xuanwu Lake, a night lake in the name of a merchant banquet, to avoid the inventory procedures of entering and leaving the city gate.
At this time, the East Window incident was just a plan in advance.
Nowadays, except for the silver, which has been replaced by boatmen and manpower, it has not had much impact.
"Wow~~"
Someone in the water came out of the water, wiped a handful of broken lotus leaves on his face, and whispered.
"Iwasa-kun, Kono-kun, there is nothing unusual about the lake, and the Shen family seems to have fewer guards on duty than usual because Miss Shen is not on the island in the middle of the lake tonight."
God help me!
Iwasa Saburo and Kono saw Shen Youchu go to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion with their own eyes.
I didn't pay any attention to this change.
In their opinion, there was already chaos in Jinling City due to the tripartite fighting, Shen Youchu stayed in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion and did not return all night, if the Shen family guards did not leave, they would have to worry about whether their whereabouts would be discovered, and they would have to investigate and wait until they were sure that it was safe to leave.
Now everything is expected, you can go straight to it.
"Kono-kun, you go first, I'll take the back."
At this time, the mat queen is not like the abandoned son who was sent to death after the city was interrupted.
On the contrary, it is the people who walk in front of them who are most at risk.
Although Kono thinks that tonight is dangerous, he ...... Forget it, what I just said is in vain, it seems that Iwasa-kun is only looking at the present, and he doesn't think about what to do when he goes out of the city.
With such a careless Shangguan, Kono can only plunge into the water with one fierce son.
Whoever called the accident was Jinling, and he was the person in charge of the Jinling stronghold, so it was normal for him to open the way.
But in order to prevent accidents from happening, Kono still showed his usual cautious attitude and sent two people to play the front and explore the situation in the waters within a hundred zhang.
If there is a change, you can let everyone abandon the silver and escape first, and wait until the limelight passes, and then come to collect the silver.
After all, no one could have imagined that the silver they defrauded from the wealthy merchants of Jinling would be placed under the noses of the people of Jinling every day.
It was not possible before, and it will not be discovered in the future.
Whoa......
The two leaders, Kono and Iwasaburo, traveled lightly.
It's because there are men who are carrying the weight for them.
Since the gold of the Wa Kingdom was very precious and not easy to circulate, all the silver tickets were exchanged for silver.
two hundred and twenty thousand taels of silver, and twenty-two chests.
Each box weighs 1,000 taels, which doesn't sound like much, but it sinks very much after entering the water.
In addition, in order to allow more people to stay and attract the attention of the Jinling Mansion, each box was only equipped with three escorts.
Two people carry the box, one person accompanies them, and three people swim forward without stopping.
If you swim in a straight line, forget it.
Because Xuanwu Lake is guarded by the Shen family nearby, and the small island in the middle of the lake occupies an irregular area.
On the basis of the original, they had to make a five-mile detour, and only they knew the difficulties and dangers during the period.
"Gurgling ......"
A widow fell behind with leg cramps, wanting to catch his breath for a moment, feeling a cold and hard weapon against his waist.
When I turned around, I saw Iwasaburo holding a dagger in the water.
Although this person couldn't see Iwasaburo's face clearly across the lake, he could still feel the other party's urging and the hideous color like a ghast.
I could only grit my teeth, pinched my calf and stomach fiercely, and swam forward quickly.
It wasn't until Kono, who was in front of the leader, stopped, that the exhausted Japanese people were able to breathe.
This is the living water of a private lotus pond that is about to wither, and there is a nursing home walking back and forth not far away.
Swim two miles further to the moat.
Kono jumped out of the water and sat on a rockery jutting out of the pond, and at a glance he could see the castle wall not far away.
At this time, there was a sudden chill behind his waist, and he wiped the cool lake water on his face and turned his head, and saw Iwasaburo poking his head out.
"Kono-san, who told you to stop?!"
Iwasaburo's voice was full of anger.
Seeing that he was so unreasonable, Kono could only lower his voice to explain.
"Iwasa-kun, everyone has been swimming for so long in one breath, and the body is tired, if the front passes safely, it will be fine, if there is an accident, or the moat is heavily guarded tonight due to changes in the city, we have to lurk in the water and wait for the opportunity, I think everyone can rest for a while before setting off, we can prevent more dangers."
These well-founded words made Iwasaburo unable to refute them.
But Iwasa Saburo didn't give up this opportunity to win people's hearts to Kono-kun, but after seeing everyone's angry and dissatisfied eyes, he took the opportunity to shake off the black cauldron.
"I asked Kono-san to lead the way in front of you, just to let you reasonably judge when it's time to rest, but I didn't expect you to be much better than us in the water, and you swam here to let everyone breathe."
****!
Kono wanted to explode into foul language.
can think that unity is the most important thing at this time, not the time to compete with Iwasaburo, so he held back and smirked: "Iwasa-kun is right, then let's rest for a while before we set off." ”
Iwasaburo also happened to be tired of swimming, so he jumped onto the rockery and took a big breath of fresh air.
Bang Bang Bang!
Until the sound of beating the watch was heard not far away, and the Japanese people resting on the stones were like frightened birds, so frightened that all the spirits did not dare to rest anymore.
"Kono-kun, let's get out of the city as soon as possible."
Someone spoke in a trembling voice, and the others nodded in agreement, and without waiting for Iwasaburo to reply, they all dived into the water.
Maybe they have been soaking in the water for too long, but for some reason, they all have an unprecedented sense of crisis in their hearts.
"Now that everyone is resting, we will not rest halfway, and go all the way to the moat."
As Kono spoke, the two Japanese in front of him turned around and made a gesture in this direction.
Silently dived into the water again.
Kono suddenly perked up and reported to Iwasaburo.
"Iwasa-kun, there is no vision in front of you until the section of the moat."
"Of course, I can't go wrong with my plan."
Iwasa Saburo spared no effort to show off his superiority, without mentioning this plan at all, but it was actually formulated by Tetsuji Anyuan in order to give away the silver without missing a tael.
Anyway, An Yuan is dead, the credit is his, and the sin is the dead.
Kono dismisses Iwasaburo's boast and immediately plunges into the water.
He didn't care about any merit at this time, he only had one idea.
Out of town!
……
The section of the moat outside the city.
Yu Zhengrong led the troops ten zhang away from the water, and according to what Ning Wuxian said, he prepared bows and arrows and fire oil.
It had been more than an hour since he was ready, and apart from a few frogs jumping up from the moat, he had not found anyone suspicious.
If someone else sat here, Yu Zhengrong would have left a few archers waiting for him, and he would have led his troops into the city to help Jiang Yan grasp the fine work.
"Rather ......"
"Shh
Just when Yu Zhengrong was about to ask for the third time when the widow would come, Ning Wuxian put his finger to his lips and motioned for him to be silenced.
At this time, Ning Wuxian, who was close to the water's edge, perked up, retreated again and again, and quietly stood between Ning Wuxian and Yu Zhengrong.
"There's a sound underwater."
Almost as soon as Ning Wu's words fell, a black shadow jumped down from the city wall.
It's Qin Shi who tracked down Iwasa Saburo and Kono!
