Chapter 200: The Library Pavilion
This Tianjian Villa doesn't look big from a distance, and when you are in it, you will find that the buildings here are chaotic and complex, and if you don't live here for a long time, you can easily get lost.
Now Ren Xiao and his party are facing the danger of getting lost.
"What now?" asked Mu Ziyi. Luo Yun glanced at the highest wall around him, and said, "I'll go up and have a look first!" After speaking, he rubbed along the vertical wall twice and jumped up. Luo Yun, who was standing on the wall, looked around the surrounding environment, and soon frowned, and the three Feng Shang under the corner of the wall shouted at him impatiently: "What the hell is going on?"
Luo Yun jumped down from the wall and said, "I see the tower, but the situation is not as simple as we imagined. From Luo Yun's frowning brows, everyone can infer that things must be very bad.
"The tower is heavily guarded! ”
"What kind of heavy guard?" Feng Shang asked.
Luo Yun squatted down and drew a circle on the ground, which was used to represent the tower, and then drew a concentric circle outside the circle, and said: "Just like this, the water around the circle is impassable, and it is even more terrifying than the iron bucket array." ”
"No, where did he get so many guards from a small villa?" Mu Ziyi couldn't believe what Luo Yun said. "I don't understand, we haven't seen so many guards since we entered the villa, where did this Gu Yuesong find so many soldiers, and why is he guarding this tower, is there a secret in it?" Not to mention Mu Ziyi, even Luo Yun himself wondered if he was wrong.
Feng Shang didn't care if what Luo Yun said was true or not, he only heard him say that there might be some secrets inside, and immediately said excitedly: "Then let's go over quickly! Maybe what everyone is looking for is in this tower." ”
They had already arrived here, and it was already difficult to get out, so it was better to rush forward, so the four of them shuttled between the fence and the house after Luo Yun determined the direction, and soon found the target tower.
Ren Xiao and the others hid in the grass under the wall, and after observing for a long time, Ren Xiao said: "Something is wrong! These people don't move, they have been standing here for a long time. Luo Yun also noticed something strange and said: "This is not in line with the basic essentials of defense, standing still will find a hole in the defense for the intruder!"
"How can there be loopholes in this iron bucket-like defense?" After seeing the formation below the tower, Mu Ziyi was a little worried. There were three hundred soldiers defending the tower, and judging by their defensive stance, it was even more difficult to get into the tower than to climb to the sky.
Just when everyone was at a loss, Feng Shang found something and said: "Even if you are standing guard, your whole body is motionless, but there is no need not to even blink your eyes!" Feng Shang's words instantly reminded Luo Yun, from just now he doubted whether this was Gu Yuesong's suspicious strategy, at this moment Feng Shang said a word, Luo Yun said: "These are not soldiers at all!"
"Not a soldier?" Ren Xiao and Mu Ziyi didn't understand the meaning of Luo Yun's words.
"If you look closely, the expressions of these people are almost identical, although their appearances are different, but all of them have the same expression. And you can see that there are obvious battle marks under their feet, and they have been standing still here for a long time!" Luo Yun said this, and Ren Xiao and they naturally understood.
"You're saying that these soldiers are fake?" Ren Xiao asked incredulously as he carefully observed the soldiers. "But they're too realistic! It's no different from real people. ”
Luo Yun explained: "Don't forget, Gu Yuesong himself is a master of weapon forging, he can make an exclusive weapon rack for everyone in a short period of time, presumably these realistic puppets are not a problem. Just as Ren Xiao and Luo Yun were talking, Feng Shang picked up a small stone under his feet and threw it at the puppet.
Only a "boom" was heard, and the stone hit a "soldier". But the "soldier" did not react at all, and was already standing guard there without distraction.
"Alright, let's go!" Feng Shang saw that there was nothing to do, so he swaggered out of the grass and walked straight to the eyes of these "soldiers".
"Hehe, the armor on these dolls is still real! I thought it was carved out of wood. Feng Shang touched the armor on the puppet.
"Okay, don't mess around, let's go!" Ren Xiao pulled Feng Shang who was hairy. As the four of them passed through the "soldiers", no one noticed that the eyes of the puppet soldiers were already quietly fixed on them.
The red hexagonal tower has a total of nine floors, each of which decreases in height from the periphery. Luo Yun and the others came to the door of the first floor and stopped, Luo Yun gave the other three a look, so Feng Shang and Ren Xiao hid on both sides of the gate in understanding, and Luo Yun pushed open the teak door.
It was getting late, and it was pitch black inside the tower, but it was vaguely discernible that it was a library pavilion. It was neatly lined with bookshelves, and the shelves were densely packed with books. After the four of them walked into the library pavilion, there was no sound inside, and this silence made Ren Xiao and them dare not breathe.
Luo Yun pointed to the spiral ladder on the right hand side and motioned for everyone to go up from here. Feng Shang saw that a few people were tiptoeing and didn't dare to breathe, so he said loudly: "There is no one else here, are you so nervous?" Before he finished speaking, Feng Shang's echo came from inside the tower, and it was the kind of rebound that bounced back many times.
Feng Shang himself was also taken aback, and hurriedly covered his mouth with his hands.
"Da Da Da" In the silent library pavilion, there was only the sound of Ren Xiao and them climbing the stairs. After a while, Luo Yun, who was walking in the front, stopped, and made a stop gesture to the person behind him. Feng, who was walking in third place, didn't notice that Ren Xiao had stopped in front of him and hit Ren Xiao's ass with a face.
"Why did I stop?" Feng Shang said, rubbing his nose.
Luo Yun in front turned around and said, "We've reached the top!" After speaking, he got out of the way of the stairs and stood on the topmost floor. This tower-like library was originally hollow inside, and although it was nine stories high, each floor had only the outermost corridor and nothing in between. Feng Shang stood in the corridor and looked down from the middle, and said, "There is such a large space in the middle, why do you have to design the corridor so narrow?" Ren Xiao also looked at it and said, "Who would have thought that four people would come in this library pavilion at once, and they all went up to the top floor!"
Luo Yun gently pushed open a window, and sure enough, he could see most of the villa from here. The arena, the lobby, the guest room area, and even the work area of the lodge can be clearly seen. There was silence on the field, a far cry from the bustle of people during the day. The red lanterns in the lobby are hung high, and the hall where the banquet is being held is the brightest, and the people come and go. The lights in the guest rooms are bright and dark, and some figures can be vaguely seen. On the contrary, in the work area of Heavenly Sword Villa, there is a little movement from time to time in the silence, and there are always some bold rats who come out to forage for food at this time.
"Look at that!" Ren Xiao saw through the window a man who, like them, planned to stand on a high place and take a bird's-eye view of the villa. The others looked in the direction of Ren Xiao's finger, and sure enough, there was a person standing on the copper pillar in the middle of the arena.
"This person is a little blind, I don't seem to have seen today's game!" Luo Yun tried to recall all the people he had seen in the past two days, and suddenly Mu Ziyi said: "He is the person of the White Night!" Luo Yun instantly felt like an enlightenment, this person was the man whose hair was about to block his eyes when he entered the villa with Qimen Hong.
"Sure enough, the white night also took action, but they must not have imagined that we were watching their every move. Feng Shang had a wicked smile on his face.
Just when the four of them were complacent about their plans, Luo Yun felt a little chill at the surrounding environment, and said, "Do you feel anything suspicious?" Feng Shang was still immersed in feeling good about himself, and said casually: "What's suspicious here? There isn't even a ghost, let's sit here quietly and watch the tiger fight!"
At this time, the person standing on the bronze pillar suddenly turned his eyes to Ren Xiao and them, and the four of them hurriedly hid, but fortunately, the other party just looked around and did not find Ren Xiao and them.
"I always feel like someone is already eyeing us!" Luo Yun said worriedly. Mu Ziyi smiled: "Now that we are staring at others, how can anyone find us?"
"No, my intuition tells me that there is a problem here, we have to get out of here!" The more Luo Yun thought about it, the more terrifying he felt, the tone of his last sentence was already unquestionable, Ren Xiao and the others were shocked by Luo Yun's serious expression, Feng Shang also began to feel that there was a problem here, so he said: "Then let's go quickly!
Just as Feng Shang was leaving the window, his hand accidentally touched a mechanism. With a click, the center of the corridor on the top floor instantly closed a floor, trapping them on the top of the library.
"It's bad, these can't go!" Mu Ziyi looked at the center that was still empty just now, and now it has been sealed.
"Brothers, we seem to have encountered a more serious problem than not being able to walk!" Luo Yun's eyes were firmly fixed on the corner of the wall, and the others also turned their heads to look, only to hear the sound of "click" in the darkness.
Immediately after, a figure stepped out of the darkness.
"Everyone be careful, the comer is not good!" Luo Yun took the lead in mentioning the Dragon Soul to remind everyone, and the remaining three also quickly took out their weapons and prepared for battle.
