Chapter 13: The Crow Swamp - Book Theft on the Road
Diwang Sect, located in the state city of Anyang Prefecture in the Principality of Chaoyang, although the strongest is only the second-rate peak, it is the only sect in Anyang Prefecture.
Except for a powerful sect like the Wind Thunder Gate in Liuzhou, normally a state city is occupied by at least two or more sects, and each divides its interests, and operates its own shops in the city.
But the Diwang Sect does monopolize a city, and ninety percent of the interests of the shops in the city are in his hands. Even if the people complain under the price of self-raised, it will not hurt the muscles and bones, so it can be said that Wang Zong, who can maintain some prosperous state cities, can be said to be making money every day.
The biggest reason why the Diwang Sect has become a wealthy sect is because of the full support of the local government forces, and the reason is the identity of the Diwang Sect's suzerain.
Although the specific identity is unknown, it has been recognized that the suzerain of the Diwang Sect is a relative of the Imperial Principality of Chaoyang.
After Wang Gou arrived here after nearly 1,000 kilometers, he entered the city of Anyang Prefecture and first set up an inn.
Naturally, this is not his destination, his destination is on the border of the Principality of Chaoyang, and this is just a stopover for him.
The purpose of his stay here is naturally for the exercises of the Diwang Sect, and there is some information about the Diwang Sect in the materials of the Fengleimen Library Pavilion, and after reading it, he feels that he can collect some exercises by the way.
Otherwise, if you don't do anything and go straight to the border of the Principality of Chaoyang, wouldn't it be too wasteful to make this long-distance migration?
Others may be subject to the identity of the sect master of the Diwang Sect and a first-class master existing in the state yamen, and dare not plan the Diwang Sect, but Wang Gou is different.
Not to mention his speed close to that of a first-class peak master, just his appearance is still the deception of a child's body, and it is difficult to be caught when he escapes. The most important thing is that he makes a reasonable and feasible plan, which will minimize the risk of stealing the exercises and control them.
It was night, in the Diwang Sect, Wang Gou was lying on the top of a building looking at a heavily guarded building complex.
One of the largest buildings was surrounded by fifty or sixty guards, and it seemed that they were all third-rate masters, and there were two captain-like figures standing on the side, which were supposed to be second-rate masters.
Wang Gou knew that this was the warehouse of the Diwang Sect, which contained most of the gold, silver, jewelry and other belongings of the Diwang Sect, and the building was windowless, and the gate was made of a heavy iron door, with a built-in lock and only a keyhole.
Almost no one can enter without a key, and there is a patrol scale of one person per person in the sect everywhere, and so many guards are arranged under such conditions, which shows how well guarded it is.
But Wang Gou did not fancy the warehouse, but the smaller building next to the warehouse, that is, the library of Diwangzong.
The library also has no windows, but the door is just a regular wooden door, a normal iron lock, and it is estimated that it needs to be opened and closed from time to time.
There are only two guards at the entrance of the library, but it is too close to the warehouse, next to the same compound, and the warehouse guards can see the gate of the library at a glance.
Judging by this situation, it would be feasible for him to force his way into the library with his speed, but when he came out, he would definitely be surrounded by the guards in the warehouse, and he would not be able to escape from the siege of dozens of third-rate experts alone.
"Let's use the sound to attack the west first"
Wang Gou thought in his heart. So the next day, Wang Gou prepared a large amount of lamp oil, packed it in wooden barrels and sealed it, a full sixteen barrels!
Three days later, the tall Sect Master of the Earth King Sect took dozens of masters out on horseback, and when the horse team went out of the city gate, Wang Gou, who was standing behind the porridge shop wall dozens of meters away from the city gate, smiled on his face, and the corners of his mouth moved slightly:
"Do it tonight!"
After that, Wang Gou returned to the hidden place near the entrance of the sect and kept staring. He had already learned that the first-class masters of the Yamen were now living in a mansion five or six miles away, and it would take a certain amount of time for them to react to the arrival of the Diwang Sect, so now the unexpected factor had been eliminated.
At 0:00 in the morning, Wang Gou's figure began to move in and out of the shadows in various places in the Earth King Sect, and soon he stood in a shadow and took out his bow and arrow.
After igniting the tarpaulin tied to the arrow, an arrow was fired, and a flash of fire was drawn in the air and landed right next to the corner of a house, where a raging flame suddenly appeared, igniting the wooden wall and window next to it.
Wang Gou moved quickly, and several rocket heads were continuously shot out in the air or between the trails. The landing point was the location of the oil drum that he had placed in advance, and the arrow broke the oil drum, and then ignited the splashing lamp oil.
A fire broke out in three buildings just two rows of attics from the warehouse, which were the suzerain's library, rooms, and small halls for hospitality!
There were constant shouts throughout the sect, and the sound of collapsing furniture and firefighting was incessant.
The three rooms on fire were at stake for the suzerain's face, and although the warehouse guards could do their duty, they were so close to each other and sealed off so tightly that they would most likely be targeted or held accountable in the future if they didn't do anything.
So less than ten guards and a captain were left to put out the fire. At this time, Wang Gou, who was in the surrounding corner, thought that it was okay.
After that, there was a "whoosh" sound after the bow and arrow were fired. The unsuspecting captain of the guard, who was looking in the direction of the fire, was instantly shot in the chest with an arrow and flew out and crashed into the warehouse wall. The warehouse guard door instantly drew a knife to guard.
Bows and arrows are Wang Gou's most lethal attack method at present! An arrow shot from sixty or seventy meters away hit the captain of the guard in less than 0.2 seconds, in fact, with the second-rate martial arts level of the captain of the guard, he could dodge even under the normal situation under the bow and arrow in the front.
Some factors that might cause some interference when escaping were also eliminated, so the moment the captain of the guard was hit by an arrow, Wang Gou immediately rushed to the door of the library pavilion.
When he arrived at the door, before the two guards at the door held high in the air had cut off the knives, Wang Gou in the middle had already flashed his sword, first cutting off half of the guard's waist at the same time.
A knife broke the lock on the door out of the wooden door, rushed inside, Wang Gou went straight to the third floor, and when he arrived on the third floor, he saw a total of more than a dozen books on the shelves with more than a dozen frames.
When Wang Gou hurriedly stuffed all the more than a dozen books into the package, he confirmed that they were martial arts, and it was less than ten seconds after entering the door. Then Wang Gou looked with reason in his eyes, turned around and rushed downstairs without changing his face.
Seven or eight guards on the first floor raised their knives at the staircase, and after Wang Gou rushed down, the guard closest to the staircase instantly slashed down, and after Wang Gou raised the knife to his head to block it, his lower body quickly kicked out, kicking the guard's body out and crashing into the door.
After two or three people on the way were knocked away, the guards who were kicked away also hit the threshold. While leaving an empty space in the middle, Wang Gou suddenly exerted force under his feet, and before the guards could surround him, he instantly flashed to the door along the emptiness.
Without the clamping of second-rate masters, the people on the firefighting side did not come here for the time being. Wang Gou quickly left the sect amid all kinds of firefighting.
When he reached the edge of a city wall, he repeated his old tricks, turned out of the city, and ran away on his prepared horses outside the city.
The horses galloped at high speed, and Wang Gou thought about it. It took less than 30 seconds from the time the captain of the guard was hit by an arrow to the time he successfully walked out of the library, and there should have been no pursuers behind him for the time being.
After a few miles away from the state city, Wang Gou felt relieved, and if there was no goal, it would be difficult for them to find themselves.
But then he switched to the trail and sped straight for his destination.
