It's dark at night. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

From the icy water of the moat, two heads quietly emerged.

On the premise of trying not to splash the sound of water, Guo Chuanzong gently wiped a handful of water droplets on his face and said in a low voice:

"Big brother, are we really going in like this?"

Jian Chen floated beside him, his eyes like torches, staring at the brightly lit South City Gate, where the strictness of the gate guards was somewhat beyond his expectations.

He didn't look back, and said, "You have to do something, it's better than sitting and waiting, right?"

The South City Gate, also known as the Suzaku Gate, is the first checkpoint to enter the Imperial City.

Although Guo Chuanzong did not get a detailed map of the palace, the distribution of Chang'an City was something that everyone who had lived in Beijing for a long time knew.

If you want to enter the palace where the emperor lives, then you have to pass through the imperial city first.

However, as the gateway to the imperial palace, the Suzaku Gate is so heavily guarded, three steps and one sentry, five steps and one post are modest statements, it can be said that as long as the generals guarding the gate are willing, this Suzaku Gate will not be able to fly into even a fly.

It seems that it is not possible to break through directly from the city gates.

Jian Chen floated quietly in the water, his head sinking and floating with the surging current, but his eyes moved away from the city gate, and he began to look at the thick city wall that was dozens of zhang high.

There was still a flash of fire on the top of the city wall, not only the city gate, but even the entire section of the city wall, and the soldiers guarding it were constantly shuttling.

The palace is extraordinary, just the first checkpoint, its security is stricter, even more than the Sword Gate Pass where Jian Chen has been.

It's just that...... Jian Chen gritted his teeth and rushed to Chang'an day and night, not to see how strict the guards of the palace were!

He turned his head sideways and said to Guo Chuanzong: "Xiao Guo, you go back first, I'll go in and have a look." ”

This is said as if the Imperial Palace Ouchi is his living room, and if you want to see it, you can go and see it.

Guo Chuanzong hurriedly said: "Big brother, let's go together, so we can take care of it!"

Jian Chen shook his head, gently stretched out a hand, pointed to the city gate, and said, "You can't get through there." ”

As he spoke, without waiting for Guo Chuanzong's reaction, he had already kicked his legs lightly, and the person slid silently to the shore in the water, and when his hands touched the mossy marble riverbank, he turned his head and said in a low voice:

"If you can do the same, let's go in together, or else, you can go back and wait for my news. ”

With his hands propped up, his whole body came out of the water, undulating like an agile cheetah, and the man had rushed to the foot of the city wall to stand.

The chaotic internal force was running rapidly, and the wet clothes were swirled with rotational force to throw all the water droplets away from the body, and in the blink of an eye, the black power suit on the body was not dry, at least it would not drip water anymore.

He looked at Guo Chuanzong, who was also about to pull ashore, shook his hand, signaled him to stop, and then pressed his hands under the heavy city wall.

What made Guo Chuanzong's eyes widen happened.

Jian Chen pressed his hands on the city wall, and climbed up alternately with his left and right hands, and with his movements, Guo Chuanzong was surprised to see Jian Chen climbing higher and higher, like a gecko clinging to the wall, and in the blink of an eye, he had climbed up more than three feet.

I saw Jian Chen's movements stop, his head twisted towards Guo Chuanzong, and two silent mouths were made in his mouth.

Through the moonlight and the fire sprinkled on the city, Guo Chuanzong clearly saw that the meaning of these two mouths was: go back.

With his head down, Guo Chuanzong was completely convinced.

If Jian Chen's gecko skill were replaced by him, the distance between three zhang would not be a big problem, but the problem was that the city wall of the Vermilion Bird Gate was dozens of zhang high, and it would be absolutely impossible for him to insist on climbing so high.

Therefore, what Jian Chen meant just now was: If you can't follow, just go back and wait for news!

I really can't keep up!

Guo Chuanzong's family knew about his own family affairs, and in desperation, his body sank and dived straight into the river, so he really had to go back and wait for news.

Jian Chen smiled and watched him disappear into the water, then he looked up, took a deep breath, and his hands went up alternately like lightning, and there were a few faint sounds of clothes breaking the wind, and then he went up ten zhang high again.

After his self-cultivation was promoted to the later stage of the Founding Sect, he became more comfortable with the use of chaotic internal forces.

Previously, when the candle flame was withdrawn from the air in the house, it was the rotation characteristic of the chaotic internal force that was applied, and at this moment, when he used the gecko skill, he reversed the direction of the Xuan Ming Technique, and changed the direction of the rotation force from the outside to the inside, and it was this strong suction force that made him firmly adsorb on the city wall.

The whole person clinged to the city wall, changed his breath again, and swooped again, and another ten zhang flashed by, and now, he was only the last ten zhang away from the city.

At this point, any wind and grass below may alert the defenders at the head of the city, Jian Chen has already held his breath, his movements are as gentle as embroidery, and he climbs up slowly and incomparably with one hand in one hand.

The last ten zhang was dozens of times longer than the twenty-three zhang just now, and it took about a meal before the last distance was finally completed.

He didn't dare to take a breath, and he cautiously looked through the uneven female wall perforation at the head of the city.

However, in order to maintain a tight garrison at the head of the city, the soldiers defending the city did not stand still, but kept patrolling the city head in an alternating shuttle manner.

This seems to be exploitable......

Jian Chen was clinging to the wall, his mind racing, but his mind was silently counting the time it would take for the defenders to alternate once.

Five breaths!

This was the conclusion he had come to after ten intents of observation.

Each team of sergeants staggered through the city, and it was not until after five breaths that the next two teams staggered again.

At this time, after all, it was night, and there needed to be torches on the castle, but it was not as bright as the Suzaku Castle Gate, which was as bright as day, and as long as it was a little farther away, at most you could only see a vague shadow.

He thought about it, the best time to break through the patrol sergeants at the head of the city was naturally that the last of the two teams of sergeants would pass back to back, and at this moment the sight of the two teams could not see behind them, and the other two teams of sergeants who came from him were the farthest away.

In this way, although the interval is five breaths, the best time left for him to climb the city and pass by again is only at the first breath.

Thinking about it, Jian Chen closed his eyes and held his breath, and went through his next actions countless times in his mind, and at the same time, he was silently counting in his heart.

Three, two, one, it's now!

He opened his eyes suddenly, pressed his hands on the city wall without hesitation, and with the force of the momentum, his body silently jumped high.

In front of his sudden jump, the last of the two teams of garrison sergeants happened to stagger, back to back, and no one noticed that there was one more person outside the city!

With his body in the air, Jian Chen didn't dare to slack off at all, his toes lightly touched the concave and convex female wall, and his body shot violently, like a sharp arrow slashing through the endless night sky in an instant.

Whew――

The two sergeants, who were walking back to back, suddenly felt a wind in the back of their heads, and looked back quickly, only to see the same surprise on the faces of their colleagues opposite.

"Yes...... Wind, right?"

One of them asked uncertainly, unsure.

"yes......"

The other touched his head, looked around for a while, and replied uncertainly.
