A tree with many branches and leaves must have many and deep roots. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info This is just like the Nangong family.

The Nangong family has been operating in the Luoyang area for nearly two hundred years, and it is certainly not fortunate that it has developed into a big family in the Central Plains.

Although Zhao Yanhao and his party were cautious, they were discovered when they were passing by the Changchun Hall Pharmacy.

As soon as they made a detour through the pharmacy, a carrier pigeon "Pu Ling Ling" flew into the night sky and flew towards Longmen Town.

When they were about to enter Longmen Town, the group followed Miao Yizhen's words, abandoned the carriage and horses, and went on foot in batches.

Zhao Yanhao carried Dou Xingkong and took the lead.

"Brother Zhao, you are not familiar with the terrain of Nangong Villa, first find a place to look at the map of the villa, and rest for a while by the way!" Dou Xingkong on his back said softly.

"Aren't you familiar with it? Zhao Yanhao smiled: "I haven't been there anyway, what's the use of watching it?"

"At least there's a general impression that it's not like a headless fly. Dou Xingkong looked a little unconfident, "Besides, black goo, aren't you worried that I won't be able to distinguish between east and west, north and south at that time?"

"Makes sense. ”

Zhao Yanhao found a secluded place, put down the burden on his back, and said with a wry smile: "I don't know what I owe you in my previous life, I want to make you a cow and a horse like this." ”

Dou Xingkong also smiled and said, "Young man, you are called doing good deeds and accumulating virtues. There is always nothing wrong with honoring the elderly. Oh, God is watching, and I will definitely give you a good reward in the future!"

Zhao Yanhao shrugged his shoulders a little helplessly, took out a bag of cooked beef and spread it on the ground, picked a piece and stuffed it into his mouth, and ate a piece himself.

"Yes, it's delicious. Dou Xingkong said vaguely while chewing.

"As long as you're hungry, everything is delicious, not to mention, this beef is so delicious!" Zhao Yanhao picked another piece and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Yes. If there is wine, it will be even better!"

Zhao Yanhao wanted to ridicule him, but when he saw his miserable situation, he couldn't bear it, and sighed lightly: "Senior Dou, you said that you can't do anything, why do you want to be a thief?

Dou Xingkong said with a sneering smile: "This is called 'taking the blame on oneself'! How many thieves can have a good end?"

Zhao Yanhao was a little annoyed: "Didn't you knowingly commit a crime? It seems that people like you really shouldn't be worthy of sympathy!"

Dou Xingkong smiled bitterly: "A thief, what is there to sympathize with?...... Hey, I can't help it, as soon as I see the rare treasures, my heart is itchy and hard to scratch, if I don't get my hands, I will eat unsweetly, I can't sleep at night, it's really worse than death!"

"In this way, you are quite aggrieved!" Zhao Yanhao sneered.

Dou Xingkong pretended not to understand his sarcasm, and sighed: "Grievances, I can't talk about it, I just think it's a pity." ”

"Oh, a pity?"

"Yes! I should have taught all the stunts to my son first, and then went to the Nangong family to steal the colorful neon beads! Hey, what a pity! My Dou family's stunt is about to be lost!" Speaking of this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he glared at Zhao Yanhao and said, "Brother Zhao, do you want to learn it?" I'll pass it on to you!"

"Cut, I won't learn!" Zhao Yanhao disdained.

Dou Xingkong's gaze suddenly dimmed, but he still had to make one last effort: "Brother Zhao, I saw that you had a good heart, so I wanted to pass on you, if it was someone else, even if he knelt down and begged me for the rest of his life, I wouldn't do it...... There is a saying that 'skills do not pressure the body'! Learn more craft, what is the bad ?......?"

"Don't learn!" No matter how hard he persuaded him, Zhao Yanhao was always indifferent.

Dou Xingkong looked very disappointed and couldn't help sighing.

Zhao Yanhao was silent for a while and asked, "Senior Dou, is your craft an ancestral inheritance?"

"Of course!" Dou Xingkong thought that he had changed his mind, and hurriedly tempted: "In terms of theft skills, if I, Dou, rank second, no one dares to claim to be first!"

"Hey, actually, I'm glad for your son! Didn't you just say, "How many thieves can have a good end?"

Dou Xingkong was silent, and his expression looked a little sad. Zhao Yanhao handed him another piece of beef, but he shook his head and said that he didn't have the heart to eat it.

Zhao Yanhao felt a little sympathetic again, and sighed lightly: "You are really true! After being captured, you can't just give an honest explanation, why are you still carrying it to death? Otherwise, why should you suffer this living crime?"

"I really hate why I didn't die in Yueyang Tower!" Dou Xingkong suddenly became excited, his eyes shot a look of resentment, and he said angrily: "I hate them! Those brutes are too evil-hearted and poisonous! They were afraid that I would run away and broke my tendons and feet; they used all kinds of torture to force me to tell me the whereabouts of those treasures! However, I don't want that treasure to fall into the hands of those brutes! I don......'t want to die."

Zhao Yanhao said angrily: "You really deserve to die! Do you know how the treasures of the Nangong family came from? They stole the money for disaster relief! Because of their greed, how many victims were displaced and died...... Although those Jinyi guards treated you a little harshly, they were in order to recover the stolen goods for the imperial court, for the country and the people, and there is nothing wrong with doing so! You are good...... Why don't you just say it?!"

"Who said I didn't say it?" Dou Xingkong said excitedly: "Who can stand the taste of torture! It's just that although I told them, they were not sure that they could find it! That's why they had to take me to the scene in person......

"Oh, that place is so hard to find?"

"Hey, you'll find out later!"

As he spoke, a bag of beef had been eaten.

Zhao Yanhao wiped his hands on the grass, reached into his arms, took out the black box and put it on the ground, just opened the lid of the box, and his body suddenly lit up, and even the hairs on Dou Xing's empty hands three feet away could be seen clearly.

"Wow! What a good baby!" Dou Xingkong's eyes straightened, and he greedily looked at the "Hanging Li" night pearl in the box, looking at his expression, if it wasn't for the fact that he had become a waste, and if it weren't for the fact that this was Zhao Yanhao's friend, he would have grabbed it in his hand a long time ago.

A crystal clear luminous body, the light color is white and blue, although the diameter is only about one inch, it can be as bright as the moon and clear light.

Zhao Yanhao also exclaimed, stretched out his hand and touched it carefully, but he felt very comfortable. So he took out the map, unfolded it on the ground, and looked at it by the light. Dou Xingkong was also so difficult to look down.

This is a labyrinthine castle plan, the lines are dense, divided into many large and small grids, the grid is marked with the courtyard, corridor, hall, bedroom, wing, kitchen, stable and other words, and the direction of "east, west, south, north" is marked around the map, which is both clear and detailed.

"This Nangong Villa is really big! The terrain is so complicated!" Zhao Yanhao shook his head and said: "Fortunately, Uncle Shi gave me this map, otherwise, if I really get lost, it would be strange to find a way out!"

"Hey, I'm here, are you afraid you won't find it?" Dou Xingkong put an afterthought there.

"Alas, you man...... Isn't it because you're afraid that you won't remember clearly, so you want to watch it?"

"Who said I couldn't remember? Let me tell you the truth, I know everything about every plant and tree in Nangong Villa. ”

"Cut, what else are you looking at?"

"I just want to make sure: there is no change in Nangong Villa today compared to before. However, it seems that nothing has changed. Oh, it's so good!

Zhao Yanhao was relieved, folded the map and put it in the box, covered the lid, put the box into his arms, stood up and said, "It's not too early, let's go!"

"What's the hurry? It's only three watches!" Dou Xingkong looked at the night sky, and said lazily, but he still let Zhao Yanhao carry himself up.

※※※

Zhao Yanhao walked briskly on the avenue with Dou Xingkong on his back, looking around as he walked.

It is a riverside avenue with a large white river on the left side and a black river bank on the opposite side. There are houses on the dirt slope on the right side of the avenue from time to time, but there is no longer a trace of lights or human voices, only the cheerful sound of crickets in the grass beside the road.

After walking for a while, Dou Xingkong suddenly said: "I'm about to arrive, just on the mountainside in front." ”

Zhao Yanhao's heart tightened suddenly, and he looked up, but saw that there was a dark and secluded mountain outside the inside, and there was a flat open land at the foot of the mountain, and in front of the open land was the big river.

Between the open field and the mountainside, there were faint lights flickering, vaguely outlining the outline of a huge manor.

"Senior Dou, is that there?" Zhao Yanhao pointed to the manor.

"Yes. From now on, slow down and don't get spotted by the housekeepers patrolling outside the village. ”

Zhao Yanhao leaned over cautiously, but fortunately, he didn't meet him along the way.

When he arrived at Dezhuang about five or six feet away, a moat suddenly appeared in front of him. On the other side of the moat is the wall of the villa, which is almost two feet high. There is a wide flat bridge over the river, facing the gate of the lodge, which can accommodate at least six horse-drawn carriages at the same time.

"Senior Dou, is this bridge the only way to enter and exit the villa?" Zhao Yanhao asked quietly.

"It's not, but it's pretty much the same. ...... There is a gate in the north, east, and south, but they are not accessible. Dou Xingkong replied in his ear.

"Why?"

"Not why. ...... I've surveyed it dozens of times, but I can't get in. ”

"Oh. ...... So, the only way to go is to take this bridge?"

"Yes. Not walking, though. ...... If you want to go, don't say cross the bridge, even if you just appear at the bridge, at least four secret sentinels will find you immediately!"

"That'...... How do you get there?"

"Do you have tools like claws?"

"Nope. ”

"What? I don't even have these basic tools, how can I get in?" Dou Xingkong was anxious and disappointed.

Zhao Yanhao looked at the gate of the villa, which was about four zhang high, and above the gatehouse was the glazed tile slope roof of the eaves structure. The walls on both sides are about half shorter, but I don't know if the walls are also paved with glazed tiles.

"Senior Dou, do you mean to grab the wall with flying claws, and then swing over with the power of the rope?"

"The wall is so high, how can it swing?"

"Yes...... Is it grasping on the cornices? But the glazed tiles are light and slippery, how can you grasp them steadily?" Zhao Yanhao shook his head, "What's more, even if you can grasp it, it will inevitably make a sound, isn't it immediately discovered?"

"Exactly! And, even if you don't make a sound, you'll be spotted as you swing past. ”

"Then you still said to use flying claws!" Zhao Yanhao was a little annoyed.

"Don't be angry! I'm using an analogy, which means that we have to use tools to get past without being detected. ”

Zhao Yanhao was also anxious in his heart, and asked, "Then how did you get over in the first place?"

"Heh, my tools back then were advanced...... I use a suction rope. ”

"Suction rope? What kind of suction rope?"

"There is a suction cup at one end of the rope, so as long as the surface of the object is flat, it can be firmly sucked on it. Dou Xingkong pointed to a tall birch tree not far from the end of the bridge, and said, "Look, it's that birch tree." Back then, I climbed to the tip of the rope, first using a spring to hit the suction cup to the cross board at the lower end of the cornice, and then tied the other end of the rope to the tree branch, crawling over like a spider. ”

"Ah, what a good way!" Zhao Yanhao admired and thought for a while: "But in the process of crawling, it is also easy to be discovered!"

"Those dark sentinels usually only stare at the ground, and don't pay attention to the mid-air. Besides, they had no idea that there was such a trapeze method. ”

"Senior Dou, do you have this thing on you?" Zhao Yanhao asked with a slim hope.

"Nope. Dou Xingkong shook his head and muttered, "I thought they would prepare some good tools for you." But I didn't expect that there was nothing on you. ...... Hey, it looks like I've got to go home. ”

Zhao Yanhao sighed heavily, was silent for a long time, and suddenly asked, "Senior Dou, is there a foothold on the other side of the moat?"

"No......" Dou Xingkong suddenly saved his words and said in surprise: "Ah?...... Do you want to jump over the moat?"

It must be known that Dou Xingkong is also quite conceited about his light work, but he can only barely jump over; if he wants to do it with one person, it is simply a fool's dream.

"Oh. Zhao Yanhao was a little disappointed.

He originally wanted to perform Shaolin's supreme light skill of "crossing the river with a reed", and he only needed to point two points on the river surface to pass; if he was alone, even if there was no foothold on the other side, he could still use the "gecko swimming wall skill" to suck his body on the wall without falling into the river. But now that he is burdened with Dou Xingkong, he is not very confident that he can do it.

"Senior Dou, if you pass, can you enter through the wall?"

"Never. As soon as you show up on the wall, you will definitely be spotted immediately. The only way to get in was through the gatehouse, so that they would not be discovered, and no one in the world could leap more than four feet high, let alone jump on the other side, so they would not pay attention to the top of the cornice. ”

"Understood. Zhao Yanhao nodded, took advantage of the cover of the trees, walked right along the moat, arrived at a secluded place far away from the stone bridge, put Dou Xingkong down, then took off his clothes, and made a few strokes with his fingers, and immediately split it into several large pieces.

"What are you going to do?" Dou Xingkong was puzzled.

"Cross the river. Zhao Yanhao responded lightly, tied Dou Xingkong's arms and waist with strips of cloth, then put him on his back, and then tied the strips of cloth tightly to himself.

"Senior Dou, don't be nervous!

Zhao Yanhao took a sharp breath of true qi, and his figure suddenly burst out like an arrow, and he dotted two points on the river surface like a dragonfly; Dou Xingkong didn't have time to be afraid, and he had already reached the root of the opposite wall.

Zhao Yanhao worked hard all his life, and his palms were like snails, firmly adsorbed on the wall.

He thought that he would drop half a foot to suck it steadily, but he didn't expect to do it so easily, which surprised him and surprised him.

For more than a month, he has been running around the rivers and lakes, and he has rarely practiced well, but his skills have not degraded, but have improved a lot.

He didn't know that his martial arts were like a big tree with very developed roots, which did not need to be fertilized or irrigated at all, and would grow and grow stronger with the passage of time.

Zhao Yanhao used both hands and feet, moving sideways on the outer wall like a gecko, heading towards the gate. The distance of more than 100 zhang is just a little while.
