Chapter 17 Entering the Palace at Night

That night, after having dinner with his family, Chen Zui returned to his house after chatting a few words.

Because, tonight, he still has important things to do, that is, to sneak into the palace and ask His Majesty the current Emperor if there is any other whereabouts of the Soul Resurrection Pill.

Time passed minute by minute, and seeing that it was already a sub-hour, the sky was completely dark. Faintly, you can still hear the sound of the watchman beating the stick on the street.

Chen Zui hurriedly changed into black clothes. Cast your skills and walk in the direction of the palace.

Dodging the patrolling army patrolling the streets, it took a few moments to reach the bottom of the palace wall in a corner.

The wall is about ten meters high, and it must be difficult for ordinary people to climb, but Chen Zui is not an ordinary person after all. Lifting his breath lightly, he put his toes on the palace wall a little, and he was three or four feet taller, and then turned around and fell, and easily entered the inner courtyard of the palace.

The patrol guards in the inner courtyard of the palace are even stricter, plus three steps and one post, and five steps and one sentry. Chen Zui was also cautiously avoided, and Chen Zui, who was dressed in black, blended into the night, but was not discovered.

"No, the palace is too big, how can I find the emperor?" Searching in vain, Chen Zui was also dizzy, seeing that he was at a loss, he suddenly saw three or four eunuchs coming, and the eunuchs were a little old, presumably a steward.

"Father-in-law Mo, you have been tired in the past few days, but you must take care of your health, the little ones will rely on your support in the future. I asked someone to buy a century-old ginseng for you in the Rejuvenation Pavilion in the city, and I will send it to you after the night. The younger eunuch who followed the old eunuch flatteringly said to the old eunuch.

The old eunuch listened to the words of the little eunuch, and secretly praised this person for being sensible and able to behave, and replied to the little eunuch, "You kid is well-behaved, and it is not in vain that I usually teach you." It's a pity that the situation with Da Zhao has been tense these days, and His Majesty is also exhausted, and he only has to fall asleep late at night, and now he is still reading the folds uploaded by the frontier in the Qianyuan Palace. Your Majesty has not slept, so how can we, as slaves, rest. The old eunuch was helpless when he thought of this......

"Qianyuan Palace?" Chen Zui, who was in the dark, finally heard the news he wanted by chance, "I really want to thank these two eunuchs, but it's a pity that the voice is too ugly, like two ducks barking." ”

Although he knew where the emperor was now, Chen Zui, who was not familiar with the court, could not find this place. I had to follow these eunuchs all the way, hoping that they could secretly help him find the location of Qianyuan Palace at one time.

Perhaps these eunuchs were really drunk lucky stars, and it didn't take long for them to come to the Qianyuan Hall with a "tail" unknowingly.

Above the huge palace, there is a plaque with mahogany and gold edges, and there are three big characters of "Qianyuan Palace" on it.

Now that he arrived at his destination, watching the eunuchs bypass the palace, Chen Zui did not follow him anymore. Hiding in a dark corner, he carefully observed the hall.

A cry came out of his mind, "Master." ”

"What's wrong?" Xing Tian also knew about Chen Zui's actions tonight, and he was not dissatisfied with Chen Zui's shouting.

"Can you help me find out how many people are around?"

In the next moment, Xingtian had expanded his divine sense and searched carefully.

"In addition to the two guards outside the hall that you saw, there are six people in the hall, and there is also a cultivator among them, you have to pay attention. After a little searching, Xingtian completely grasped the situation around him.

"Cultivator?" For the cultivator in Xingtian's mouth, Chen Zui was also surprised. This is the first person he has met since he left the valley.

"No matter what the cultivators, they can't stop me from asking the emperor. ”

Chen Zui secretly clenched his fists, ran "Phantom Nine Changes", and quietly appeared behind the two guards outside the hall, and at the same time slashed at their respective necks with both hands, only a slight "plop" sound was heard, and the two guards were already slowly falling to the ground unconscious.

"What thief, dare to break into the Forbidden Palace at night and assassinate. A loud roar came from inside the hall.

Or was discovered. After all, cultivators are deaf and clear-sighted, and even the slightest noise cannot be hidden.

Chen Zui didn't intend to hide from the other party's eyes and ears, so he simply went straight in, directly and slowly pushed open the door of the hall, and walked into the hall.

Above the hall sat a fifteen or sixteen-year-old man in bright yellow clothes, behind him were two serving palace maids, and on either side stood two eunuchs holding lamps. The four eunuchs trembled with fright when they saw an assassin assassinating them, but the little emperor above was as calm as he was. In the center of the hall, an old man in black with a goatee holding a sword looked at Chen Zui coldly...... Exactly six people, one not more, one no less.

When Chen Zui entered the hall, he immediately revealed himself. "I'm not here to assassinate, just ask a few questions and leave......"

"The sophistry of a three-year-old child, who would believe it. Look at the sword. "The old man who cultivated the truth didn't allow Chen Zui to explain, and he had already driven the flying sword to stab at Chen Zui.

The first time Chen Zui saw the cultivator's move, he was also very interested. "Oh? ”

Seeing that the flying sword was about to stab Chen Zui, Chen Zui, who was still marveling at this never-before-seen spell, came back to his senses, and subconsciously used a move "Samsung Yaoshi", and quickly hit the flying sword with three punches. The flying sword couldn't withstand such a heavy blow, and it swayed in the air, and the original glorious sword body was also a little dim.

The old man hurriedly recalled the flying sword. This was given by the original teacher, but it was a rare sword, and now it has been damaged, and I don't know how long it will take to recover.

Chen Zui saw that he had made a heavy hand, and he also said to the old man in a sneering manner. "I'm sorry, I didn't master the strength well, and I hurt your weapon. ”

It's helpless to have your weapons destroyed if your skills aren't as good as others, but you can't return the taunts. The old man was so angry when he heard this, a mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth, urging the essence and blood, and instantly improved a lot of cultivation. "The thief deceives people too much, and the old man fights with you. After that, he also roared at Chen Zui with red eyes.

The old man quickly pinched the Dao Law in his hand, and instantly saw a flash of fire appear out of thin air.

Shout!

The firelight quickly attacked Chen Zui, and in the blink of an eye, he came to Chen Zui.

Chen Zui hurriedly bent down to avoid the fire. It's just that one accidentally let it graz his right arm. The clothes on his right arm were completely destroyed, and there was a foul smell of burning. The right arm was flushed, but fortunately, he was protected by the exercises, and his right arm was not injured, but it still made him feel a heart-piercing pain.

"Slow, I'm really not here to stab ......", seeing the old man's attitude of never dying, Chen Zui also panicked, after all, he was wrong first.

Besides, this old man's cultivation is not much worse than Chen Zui. Just imagine, how can a guard who can be responsible for the safety of the emperor by his side be a mediocre hand.

Chen Zui was not sure that he would be able to defeat this old man, and he didn't want to fight with him to lose both.

had no choice but to show his identity. "I am the grandson of the Guardian of the Kingdom. ”
