Chapter 68: Daytime disguised as a manor
Although Alayanzong was also anxious, he looked at Hulun Xuguang's appearance and was a little impulsive, so he comforted: "Calm down, you must be calm." Do you think we can come if we ask for someone now, and if they say they haven't seen us, where are we going to find it?"
Hulun Xuguang was speechless for a while, he didn't know what to do, he sat on the bamboo chair, sighed, and just hammered his head with his fist.
Liju was even more crying.
Ha Yo Shutai is still smoking with his head down.
Alayanzong pondered for a moment and asked, "Have you been to the interior of Dread Manor? We need to know the manor's topography and room layout to find someone." Know where people are, so you can save them. ”
Hulun Xuguang shook his head, indicating that he had not been there.
Hayoshutai spat out a puff of smoke and said, "I've been there, such a big manor, I only saw a part of it, but I didn't see all of it." ”
Alayanzong's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "It's okay to have a part, it's better than not knowing at all." Uncle, tell me about it, let me find out. ”
He said that every year he had to pay the rent, and once he helped him find a shengzi, and he had the opportunity to enter the manor.
The manor covers an area of more than 3,000 acres, which is larger than the civilian areas on the periphery. In the far south, there are trading and storage areas, where grain, furs, cotton, salt, and some agricultural tools are traded. There is an independent gate, and the door is guarded by Zhuang Ding.
To the north is the workshop area, where blacksmiths, weaving workshops and other crafts are operated.
Further north is the martial arts training ground, where Zhuang Ding usually exercises, and the surrounding area is the barracks.
In the far north are the inner houses and gardens.
There are courtyard walls and doors between the various ministries and districts, but there is no one to guard them.
Each ministry has a separate gate to the outside, and these doors are watched.
When they enter the manor, they will inevitably encounter the interrogation of Zhuang Ding, and once they arouse suspicion, it is difficult to get in, and they will be aware, unless there is a transaction that is easier.
That's all he knows, and he can't say anything else.
Alayanzong thought for a while and said, "It's more convenient for me to go by myself, no matter how high the courtyard wall is, it can't stop me, and I don't need to enter and exit the courtyard door." ”
Hulun Xuguang suddenly raised his head and said, "I have to go." ”
Seeing his resolute look, Alayanzong asked, "Can you climb over the wall?"
Hulun Xuguang shook his head.
Alayanzong said, "Then you can't go. ”
Hulun Xuguang was a little anxious, "I have to go!
Ala Yandong pondered for a moment, Hulun Xuguang was right, Wan'er had to take care of him, it was better than him alone, after all, he had not entered the courtyard, and he had to be explored one by one.
Then he said, "If you want to go, you have to enter through the gate, and what kind of trade can there be in this season?" ”
Hulun Xuguang said: "Fur! Some time ago, I also sold two rabbit skins on the market. ”
Ha Sutai took a puff of cigarette and said: "But Medhill does not accept rabbit skins, only larger skins than sheepskins, and does not accept small skins." ”
The Liju clan had stopped crying and had been listening to the discussion of the three men, when he suddenly interjected: "Wolf skins! Didn't Xuguang send two the day before yesterday?
Ha Yu Shutai looked at his wife and said faintly: "This is my daughter's dowry, what you have always wanted, in order to make two wolf skin mattresses." Are you willing?"
"Oh, everyone is in trouble, and they are still worried about wolfskin mattresses. I'm willing!" Liju said with a crying tone, and it could be seen that she really felt sorry for her daughter, and she would rather not have a wolf skin mattress.
Hulun Xuguang had tears in his eyes, gritted his teeth, looked at the extremely excited Liju clan, and said, "Auntie, don't worry, I will fight two more wolves and skin the wolves to send you." ”
Seeing that the family was so united in order to save Ha Yuwan'er, Alayanzong said: "No need, I also brought a wolf skin, I accompanied the merchant, just mix in." ”
Hu Lunxu raised his fist and said, "No! Wan'er is in trouble, I must save it, I can fight the wolf again when the wolf skin is gone, and I must go to save people!"
Alayanzong was moved by this man's infatuation, so the two began to study how to enter the manor.
Alayanzong changed into a gray robe and found a wide-brimmed hat to wear, after all, he had met some Zhuang Ding.
Hulun Xuguang didn't need to wear makeup, but in order to hide people's eyes, he also wore a hat.
The two of them each carried a wolf's skin and went to the south gate of Dread Manor.
The courtyard wall of the manor is six meters high, with thorns and thorns inserted on it, and the tall and wide black lacquered wooden door is very **.
Normally, the gate is not opened, but only when the carriage is in and out. Even when the gate is closed, there is a strong man on each side. There is a corner gate next to it, which only allows pedestrians to enter and exit.
Zhuang Ding, who was guarding the door, saw that he was here to deliver the goods, so he let it in.
The two of them were embarrassed that no one else came to hand over the hides for trade except them, but they had their own way of entering the gate.
After handing over the wolf's skin and receiving the silver coin, the two of them used the excuse of looking for a latrine, and then slipped away to the backyard, and no one stopped them.
Walk through a row of bungalows in the trade area and enter a moon gate, behind which are warehouses.
In broad daylight, except for the shipment and purchase of goods, there are usually no people here, and those people are all in the trade area. It is also only at night that there are people on duty to patrol in case of fire.
Further north of the storehouse, a courtyard wall that runs from east to west separates each other, also six meters high. There are three gates in the courtyard wall, which are evenly distributed in the east-west direction. The middle room is larger, and the two sides are much smaller, but they are all locked.
Fortunately, this lock is on the side of the warehouse, and this is not difficult for Alayanzong, so he took out the surgical instrument left by the master from under the robe, found a long needle from it, and opened the iron lock in three clicks and two clicks.
Hulun Xuguang followed him into the small door and closed it casually.
When you enter the workshop area, you will see people coming and going, pushing, pulling, and carrying goods, and it seems that they are workers. Even when he saw the two of them, no one paid attention to them.
Alayanzong has analyzed, although there are many rooms here, but there are also many people, and there are many people, the demon king of the mixed world will not lock people here, the most likely is the barracks in front.
Or the northernmost inner house, but the inner house is unlikely, because all the people of the Medder family live there, and it is too conspicuous for the Demon King of the Mixed World to blatantly press people into the inner house.
However, the Alayanzong is not sure, and will only make a decision after investigation.
Although the workers didn't care too much about them, it was better to avoid them as much as possible in order to reduce trouble, after all, the two of them didn't look like the workers here at all.
If an overseer sees the two of them, they will still attract attention.
Fortunately, the workshop rooms here were built with small spacing, which also made it easier for the two of them to hide in time.
In order to avoid people's eyes and ears, it is not advisable to walk in a straight line, so they walk in the places on the side of the house and behind the house, which are covered by higher weeds, which are easier to hide, and finally come to the root of the next high wall.
On the other side of the wall, there was the shouting of Zhuang Ding.
There is only one gate in this high wall. The two of them walked along the wall to the door, and the door was also locked, but the lock was inside. Alayanzong looked inward through the crack in the door.
Even if the Alayan sect could open the door and enter, it would not be able to pass through here. Because that side is the martial arts training ground, Zhuang Ding is training, and the ground is relatively open, the opening of the gate is easy to attract the attention of that side of Zhuang Ding, once their whereabouts are exposed, it will ruin the next plan.
The two of them followed the wall back to the northeast corner. There is a row of poplars in the high wall, but there are only half-man-high weeds here, and there are no large trees.
For Alayanzong, this high wall can't stop him at all, and now the question is whether Hulun Xuguang can live through the high wall?
