Chapter 209: An Accidental Discovery

Hiding under the carriage and sneaking in was Wei Zhanmei's impromptu idea, but it was not impulsive.

He watched very carefully as the two carriages entered and inspected at the gate before they were observed. He noticed that although the procedural steps of the inspection were not omitted, it may have not happened for a long time, so it was inevitable that the process would be a mere formality and a formality.

For example, crouching down to check the bottom of the car just means something, not lying low enough to see the whole picture under the car.

For example, if you sweep with a spear, you are half-leaning back, and you still won't see what is going on under the car.

Because of this, the two soldiers didn't find that there was anyone under the car, and when they pulled with their guns, Wei Zhanmei and Ji Yu took the first step to let go and fell to the ground, the loading body was wide, and the people next to them couldn't find it, and the body of the spear couldn't touch the bodies of the two.

Wei Zhan frowned, except for the necessary items such as the half-long white slashing double knife and the hidden weapon sac hidden in his chest, he did not carry superfluous things such as iron flying and grabbing, he was bold and careful, and he was experienced, and he rose and fell silently. Ji Yu carried a sword, but she was skilled, and she was good at the right time.

Although when the spear swayed against the bottom of the car, it almost touched the bodies of the two people lying on the ground, but it was not exposed.

Waiting for the spear to be withdrawn, the two of them reached out again to hook the bottom of the car and attached themselves to it, and followed the carriage into Yan's village.

This is Wei Zhanmei saw that the inspection was not detailed enough and there were loopholes, so he decided to take a risk, add some luck, and finally pass the risk, otherwise he would not dare to use this method.

The two calmed down in the hideout and began to search the village.

There should be two checkpoints of the suspension bridge and the inner village, especially the strict precautions for entering the inner village, so the guards in the village are very lax, there are few bright posts, and there is no secret whistle, only the night patrol team with lanterns occasionally appears on the road, and it is easy to avoid.

The two crept to sneak, and Wei Zhanmei led Ji Yu to move high and low along the corners.

In Wei Zhanmei's experience, the warehouses where things are stored are mostly built in the back half of the stockade, and as long as you find a relatively tightly guarded place to explore, it is possible to find a place where the treasure is hidden.

After searching for a long time, he found several warehouses, and after judging and excluding the places where ordinary daily necessities and ordinary materials were stacked, Wei Zhanmei locked the target in the northwest corner of the cottage.

There is no sentinel here, and it looks very inconspicuous outside, Ji Yu didn't see anything strange when he started to pass by, and Wei Zhanmei also inadvertently found a hidden sentry before becoming suspicious.

After repeatedly observing and confirming, and finding four hidden piles around, they saw that the guards here were obviously stricter than in other places, so they patiently squatted for a while, and finally saw clearly that this was the entrance to a cellar during the changing of the guard.

Could it be that this is the treasure trove of military salaries?

Wei Zhanmei had the heart to go in and find out, but the five hidden piles were staggered, forming a cross-cutting line of sight, bypassing one could not avoid the second or third place, bullying or using a hidden weapon could solve one or two people, but it was not easy to kill all the hidden piles without making any sound.

After thinking for a while, Wei Zhanmei quietly took Ji Yu and walked back.

He gave up his plan to enter, anyway, Yan Jiazhai is weird no matter what he says, just go back and report it to Hu Shiwei, and let him decide whether to openly lead the team to the mountain or conduct further investigation in private.

Wei Zhanmei has another place to visit, and he can't delay here for too long, and besides, there are military camps everywhere, and it will be difficult to get out if he is not careful, so it is better to find a way to leave after searching again.

He told Ji Yu about his plans, and Ji Yu said: "It's quite exciting to enter the mountain in front, but that's the end of it?

Wei Zhanmei rolled his eyebrows: "Otherwise, what should I do? As long as the reconnaissance has results, I don't know what His Highness thinks?"

Ji Yu tilted his head and thought about it: "Since it is a cellar, our Qingchuan Palace also has an ice cellar and other underground warehouses where ice is hidden, I have been to play, this kind of place usually has a ventilated skylight hole or something, it can't be done by going to the door, we can try to find a vent." ”

Wei Zhanmei just asked casually, but he didn't expect Ji Yu to really come up with a good trick, and said: "Well, the princess is wise, good idea, and the general will act according to the plan." ”

Ji Yu pouted: "That's right, crossing the suspension bridge is the credit of the little girl, and you came up with a way to enter the village, and now it's the princess's turn to take the lead." You ignorant earth bun naturally won't know the mystery of the royal cellar. ”

Wei Zhanmei could only be silent.

The two of them made a detour from the side to the dirt hill, and turned to the position above the cellar, which was densely covered with thorns and trees, but there was no trace.

After groping in the dark for a long time, the two of them found a vent hidden by bushes.

The vent is not big, there is an iron grille embedded in the rock, people can't get in, Wei Zhanmei probed with force, and then pried it with a white chopping knife, but he didn't move, he shook his head.

Ji Yu pushed him away: "Get out of the way, you men can't do this job, it's better to look at the princess." ”

She casually pulled out the long sword, pressed it one by one, and the iron fence broke in response, this sword looked no different from an ordinary sword, it was actually a sword that sharpened iron like clay.

Wei Zhanmei swallowed his saliva, the royal thing is indeed not ordinary, and the small people really can't compare.

The two of them fell to the ground from the vent, and after their eyes got used to the darkness inside, the two of them walked around to make sure that no one was there, and Wei Zhanmei took out the fire fold he carried with him and lit it.

The cellar occupies a large area, full of large wooden boxes piled high, Ji Yu took the fire fold, Wei Zhanmei used a knife to pry open the plank, the two of them were shocked, and opened several boxes one after another, which contained similar things.

Not gold bricks, silver ingots, and jewels, but neat and neat weapons and arrows of all kinds!

It's an arsenal!

The Yan family was born in the army, and they were allowed to privately maintain the soldiers of the village, so it is not surprising that they have knives, guns and weapons, but looking at the cellar, if they are all armed here, they can arm a team of thousands of people, to say the least.

Secretly hiding a large amount of armaments, this, this is the rhythm of rebellion!

And such a large amount must be transported in batches, plus it is a suspected place where the military salary is hidden, Yanjiazhai colluded with the rebels to snow quickly Qingtang has endured so far, and the plotter is big.

Neither of them spoke, and now there is no need to check any treasures, it is enough to have this discovery.

Wei Zhan's eyebrows turned, how to deal with it can be said later, with his current status, it is better to take Ji Yu to leave here and go out of the mountain first.

The two of them came out of the vent, and after camouflaging themselves, they turned back to the entrance to the cellar. Wei Zhanmei stopped, and was thinking about how to get out of the village when he faintly heard the sound of talking from the secret sentry guard.

Obediently, someone came to give an order, asking one of the dark piles to go back to his residence and call ten people to go to the back mountain to help carry things.

Wei Zhanmei hesitated, he didn't resist his curiosity, what did he carry in the middle of the night?

The two followed the man, and after calling the people, the group of soldiers walked behind the stockade with torches.

The back village was built along the mountain, thinking that there were either high walls around the cottage, or the mountain was steep, and the back village was not guarded, so Wei Zhanmei and Ji Yu were able to follow the back smoothly out of the door.

The back mountain is rugged and rugged, the forest is deep and the trees are high, it is extremely difficult to walk, and only the sheep intestine path leads to the distance.

Ji Yu asked Wei Zhanmei in front of him: "Nineteen, your legs ...... Can you do it?"

"...... me, the dragon is fierce and fierce, and he is very good. It's strange to say, after having a fever, the wound healed very quickly, faster and more thoroughly than any previous injury, could it be that Ye Qianqian's medicine needs to be burned to be effective?"

The two followed all the way, not long ago, passed through a low valley, the two found that there is a hole here, on the relatively gentle slope along the way, between the lush woods, there are five or six courtyards with exquisite appearance, there are high and low from the valley bottom where they are, there are tens of zhang or so between each other, the houses are simple and simple, there are mountain springs and waterfalls on the mountain, the environment is quiet and elegant.

This may be the residence of the Yan family and the people with status in the cottage.

The group of soldiers continued to move forward, and soon, after following to a stone cliff, the soldiers suddenly disappeared without a trace.

After a slight pause, the two of them hurriedly followed to see, it turned out that this was a cliff, the cut face went straight into the knife, and the soldiers stepped on an iron cable suspension ladder to the bottom of the ditch, and then walked towards the mountain.

It seems that there must be another way out of the mountain behind Yanjiazhai, otherwise it is impossible to transport the bulk goods from here to the cottage and then out of the mountain.

The two waited for the soldiers to go away, went down the ladder, and continued to track, and finally stopped in a mountain col.

Wei Zhanmei and Ji Yu climbed a rock and looked down.

The col was brightly lit, and there were nearly a hundred people busy, and two people were standing, directing the soldiers to carry boxes out of a cave.

The format of the box is different from that in the cellar, looking at the appearance of the soldiers when they are lifted, the weight is not light, it is not a weapon, it may be gold and silver?

Among the two people standing, one of them is pointing at an old man, tall and burly, and the other is young, but also broad-shouldered and round-waisted, but he is wearing a white dress, which looks even more bloated, and he is shaking a folding fan in his hand.

Wei Zhan's eyebrows moved, this fat young man in white was quite similar to a rebel figure wanted by Nanzhen Fusi, he wanted to confirm it again, so he took Ji Yu and quietly moved forward more than a dozen feet.

This move is a bad move.

That burly old man is the second leader of Yanjiazhai. The older generation of the Yan family is currently in power with three brothers, the head of the family is the eldest brother Yan Gewe, the second Yan Dingmao, and the third Yan circle.

Yan Ge cries both civil and military, has been living in a simple place, it is usually difficult to see his person, the third Yan circle is good at military strategy, and his kung fu is not bad immediately, this second Yan Ding Mao specializes in Yan family boxing and Yan family guns, and he is proficient in martial arts, and he has a rare characteristic, that is, his nose is particularly smart, and he is born with a keen sense of smell.

Wei Zhanmei and Ji Yu happened to be in the upper hand.

Although Ji Yu is a person who practices martial arts, in the end, she is a royal noblewoman, and paying attention to makeup is also a compulsory lesson in the small palace, and the spices used are still very rare and expensive, and the faint fragrance of fat powder is carried down by the wind.

Ordinary people don't feel it, but Yan Dingmao sniffed and felt abnormal, how could there be a faint aroma in this barren mountain range?

He remained silent, and secretly asked people to gather a group of soldiers, which was bright and not suitable for a sneak attack, and when the manpower was ready, he ordered to rush up the mountain to get people.

Wei Zhanmei and the others found that something was wrong, turned around and ran back, trying to find a fork in the road to escape to the mountain, but found that the two sides were either cliffs or ditches, so they could only return along the same road.

The two quickly returned to the iron cable suspension ladder, and after climbing up in a hurry, Ji Yu waved his sword and cut off the iron chain, the suspension ladder fell, and the pursuers couldn't get up for a while.

However, Yanjiazhai's soldiers and horses are all well-trained soldiers in the army, and they have their own countermeasures, only to see a few arrows shooting straight into the air.

Immediately, a dense gong sounded in the direction of Yanjiazhai. At the same time, the lights also lit up in the hillside courtyards that the two of them had just passed.

Suffer!

Back to the inner village, it was self-throwing, Wei Zhanmei hurriedly checked the terrain, there seemed to be a few trails around the hillside courtyard, and he could only escape along the road and go up the mountain for today's plan.

The two of them began to gallop over.

After a while, people came out of the courtyard on the slope, one group went to the cliff to meet the people below, and the other two groups were divided into two teams and chased after each other.
