Chapter 109: Infiltrating the Sikong Mansion
After carefully observing, Yuan Li asked Xiangzhongyu, "Where do we get in from?"
He didn't speak, but just pointed to the Sikong Mansion, and Zhang Xiao and the three of them looked in that direction, and suddenly understood that there was a three-story tree there, and it was relatively close to the wall, and it seemed that they wanted to use that tree to enter the Sikong Mansion. [Ran^Text^Library] []
But the people did not dare to go in from the street like this, and under the leadership of the bag, they came and brought a three-story building opposite the big tree, and took advantage of the darkness in the alley, quietly climbed to the top, and squatted here.
It's not that they are afraid to go in, but everyone finds that the patrolling soldiers are too frequent, and one pair leaves the other team and arrives, and there is no gap at all.
Zhang Yao was really a little anxious to wait, and said: "We are not ordinary people, do we still need to rely on this method?
Yuan Li lowered his head and pondered, not knowing whether he should do this or not, and Zhang Xiao immediately persuaded: "Cousin, who knows if there will be a demon cultivator inside? ”
He turned his head and said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's time for them to change their guards soon, and there will be time then, now take a break." ”
The four of them continued to wait quietly, from here they could see some of the scenes in the Sikong Mansion, there were almost no maids and miscellaneous servants coming and going, and there were no soldiers moving around, but each level was guarded, and they could see the guards of other levels in their sight.
This method is very clever, even if there is no patrol, it is not too tight, it is like laying a net under the Sikong Mansion, if there is an abnormality in any level, others can immediately find it, but it is difficult for Zhang Xiao and others, not only to avoid patrols, but to dive under the noses of the guards.
At this time, the bag finally spoke, and said anxiously: "It's now, but the situation seems to be a little wrong, the way they change their guard has changed a little, it seems that this Shi Jing wants to do something on the first day of duty, let's go in quickly." ”
After speaking, the bag fishing from the waist to untie a rope, and the two ends of the rope are connected with two palm-sized hooks, this tool is called a rope hook, the main role is to dive in, but this hook is blunt, even if the hook does not leave traces, it seems that this is the bag fishing itself deliberately transformed, can make it difficult to find hook traces.
Caught in the bag and flicked the hook, just hooked the big tree at once, it seems that this skill is quite proficient, and then he hooked another hook to the eaves, and said to Zhang Xiao and the others: "You just follow me and slide in." ”
After speaking, he hung the rope in his bag, slid into it easily, stood on the tree, and kept waving to Zhang Xiao and the others, signaling that they could come over.
No matter how agile he is in the bag, he is an ordinary person after all, he can do it, how could Zhang Xiao and the others not be able to do it, so it didn't take long for him to slip in.
Seeing that everyone had successfully entered Sikong Mansion, he threw the rope back with all his might, and he took the rope hook back, and he didn't worry about being exposed, he climbed down the tree and said to Zhang Xiao and the others: "It's okay, you guys come down, this is a courtyard, they can't see here." ”
Zhang Xiao and the others were relieved to climb down the tree one after another, and saw that this place was indeed fenced, and there was only one door to pass, no wonder they would choose this kind of place to sneak in.
Bag fishing quietly walked to the door, signaling everyone to be quiet, it can be speculated that there should be someone guarding the door, but no sound can be made.
Everyone also quietly came to the door, and through the crack in the door, they found that there were two guards standing outside the door, and there were also guards guarding them, and it seemed that they could not get out from here.
"If those people come in by water, I probably know where they are, and if I'm careful, I should be able to dive there." ”
Zhang Xiao was a little puzzled and asked, "Since we know where they came in, then we can't avoid it, why do we take the initiative to find them?
Bao Zhongyu replied: "Since they are here to assassinate Cao Cao, then they naturally know where Cao Cao lives, so they will lead the way, and we will reap the harvest." ”
After hearing this, Zhang Xiao asked in surprise: "Could it be that you don't know where Cao Cao lives?
Bag fishing seemed to be a little impatient with Zhang Xiao's constant questioning, and said impatiently: "Oh, you person, I am indeed very familiar with the terrain here, but this is not my home, I try to avoid contact with people every time I sneak in, there are so many houses here, how can I know which one Cao Cao lives in." ”
There was no way, since they didn't even know Cao Cao's residence, they could only wait for those assassins to lead the way, so everyone tried their best to hide their breath, and followed the bag fishing to climb in and out of the windows one by one, climb up and down from house to house, turn over the grass, and jump over the wall, and finally came to Fuzhong Lake in Sikong Mansion after all the hard work.
Everyone hid in the low trees beside the lake, covering their bodies, and said in a very weak voice: "This lake is very close to the wall, and it is the most hidden place to come in from the waterway, and this lake is very large, and there are few checkpoints around it, so you must be able to wait for them here." ”
Although there were very few people passing by, the trees were too close to the road, and the people hid motionlessly, complaining about when the Assassins were going to make their moves.
I don't know how long it took, Zhang Xiao and the others, who had adapted to the darkness, felt that there seemed to be some movement on the water surface of the lake, although it was very slight, but now there was no wind and no rain, and it could be guessed that those assassins had come in, and they couldn't help but get nervous, don't mess it up at this time.
Although there was movement in the lake, it was calm again, and it didn't change for a long time, was it wrong?, and everyone suddenly relaxed a little, and began to wonder if the assassins had sneaked in from somewhere else.
Just when Zhang Yao couldn't hold it back, there was movement in the lake again, it was certain that there were people, the water surface was stirred up ripples, and soon six people quickly crawled out from the opposite side of the lake and hid in the dark.
Finally waited for them to act, Zhang Xiao and the others were nervous, closely observing the movements of these people, only to see that they did not wait, just simply removed the water traces on their bodies, and then began to act, directly killing the two guards at a checkpoint, and then using special techniques to keep them standing, and then continued to dive towards other places.
He made a gesture to signal everyone to follow him, and then carefully followed in the direction of the assassins, and came to the front of the two guards, only to see that their eyes were open, and they maintained the posture they had in before death, but their whole bodies were stiff and out of breath, and it seemed that there were indeed high-ranking people in that group of assassins.
But no matter how powerful these assassins were, how could they compare to the Immortal Cultivators, when they hid in a rockery to discuss, Zhang Xiao, Zhang Jiao, and Yuan Li hid beside them, wanting to listen to what they were talking about and decide what to do next.
One of the assassins said: "Is the location clear? Wait a minute, we will separate according to the plan, and we must kill Cao Thief and Cao Chong, without these two people, see how his Cao family is ruined." ”
The others were all beaming with pride, but an older man said solemnly: "Don't be happy too early, Cao Thief is not simple, this road must be dangerous, you need to be careful." ”
The person who spoke before stopped laughing and said again: "That's right, we have been preparing for so long, so that today, the Lord will definitely bless us in the heavens, and when we act in the future, we must be foolproof, and we will separate from here." ”
One of them said: "Although it is led by Shi Lian's son today, after all, the new official takes office, maybe there will be some accidents, so it's better for everyone to pay more attention." ”
The person who spoke before said: "That's right, although he is inexperienced, he may also know the loopholes that may appear, so he has to be careful not to fall into the trap, now everyone disperses." ”
After speaking, these people divided into teams of four and two people and left separately, Zhang Xiao and the others came to the place where they were hiding, and when they saw them gradually moving away, they immediately began to discuss.
Zhang Yao said first: "It's great that they scattered away, so that we can just follow those who are looking for Cao Cao, and it would be great if the other people could make some trouble." ”
