Meng Suige stood in the darkness, looking up at the high wall.
When he was not injured, he could turn over a wall like this ten or eight times without taking a breath!
But now, he has more than enough ambition but not enough energy.
"Master Meng, you need flying claws to climb such a high wall, right?" Zhang Di whispered with a look of embarrassment.
Meng Suige didn't expect that a village girl like Zhang Di would know about Feizhao, so he looked at her in surprise.
Zhang Di said calmly: "It's all written like this in the storybook."
"..." Meng Suige's mouth twitched slightly. She had read some messy story books, and even introduced the essentials for wall climbing.
Just when the two of them were looking at the wall and sighing, helpless, a bright candlelight flickering in the dark night quickly approached the place.
"There is an assassin, catch the assassin!"
"hurry up!"
"Don't let him get away!"
The sounds of hurried footsteps and shouts gradually approached.
Meng Suige didn't have time to think too much. He pulled Zhang Di and quickly hid behind the lush flowers and trees nearby.
This backyard must have been neglected on weekdays. The flowers and trees are lush and unorganized. Let alone two people hiding in the dark, even if they hide two people in the daytime, it is not easy for others to notice.
Two men, one tall and one short, fled in a hurry under the dim moonlight. Behind them, the firelight swayed, and the sound of killing was loud, making the grass and trees beside the road rustle.
The two men turned back while running. They were very fast, leaving some distance behind the guards who were chasing after them.
Running under the back wall, the two men exchanged glances.
The tall man made fists with both hands in front of him, and at the same time, the short man tapped his toes on the ground, and then landed heavily on the tall man's hand.
The tall man raised his hand and raised it heavily.
The short man used his strength to leap into the air as light as a swallow. When he reached the top of the wall, he stretched out his hands to grab the iron caltrops on the top of the wall as fast as lightning.
Then he was not afraid of the sharp and hard caltrops, jumped up, and stood on the densely packed caltrops. He was about to climb over the high wall of more than ten feet.
At the same time, a sound of breaking through the air came from the void, and a flying claw flashing with cold light crossed the wall and got stuck firmly in the dense thorns.
A rope as thick as a thumb hung down, swinging silently.
The tall man rushed over, grabbed the end of the rope and tugged, then climbed up without stopping.
His movements were as fast as the wind, leaving an afterimage as his body swayed.
He had already climbed half of the high wall, which was more than a foot long, in just a few breaths.
At this moment, the guards who were chasing after him also approached the place.
A sound of "咻咻咻" came through the air.
More than a dozen feather arrows with sharp tail sounds pierced the night coldly and swarmed behind the two men.
"Puff, puff, puff." Several sounds of sharp weapons piercing flesh and blood were heard, mixed with the sound of clanking.
The arrows that hit the wall bounced and landed on the ground.
The short man who was clinging to the wall and about to climb over the wall screamed miserably, his body softened, and he lay down on the wall.
The caltrops pierced his body, and blood spattered in the night.
He groaned, his body twitched twice, and his whole body went limp and motionless. His upper body hung on the thorns, and his lower body sank softly.
Several arrows pierced his body, and the tails of the arrows pointed at the distant dark sky, flowing with a cold white light.
Blood fell from the wall, and the bloody smell was so thick that it was difficult to dissolve.
The man who was climbing up with the flying claw rope had a prick on his back like a hedgehog, and he fell to the ground before he even had time to scream.
A large amount of blood spread under him, seeping in along the gaps between the green bricks.
The group of guards came closer, checked the tall man lying on the ground, and turned back to Ayong: "Manager, you are out of breath.
"
Ayong nodded expressionlessly: "Do you have anything on you?"
The guard carefully searched the tall man's body and shook his head: "If I go back to the manager, there is nothing that can identify me."
Ayong looked up at the short man hanging on the iron caltrop and frowned slightly: "It's late at night now. We'll pull that man down after dawn and search him carefully." He kicked the tall man who was dead. : "Carry him away first."
The guards all claimed that it was, and the two of them carried the tall man away one after the other.
The leading guard looked at the tall man's body and was puzzled: "Manager, he didn't steal anything, and His Highness is not in the house. What are these two people doing here?"
Ayong narrowed his eyes slightly: "I'm afraid I came for that person."
The leading guard was shocked: "Then, what should we do? That person is very important, we must not let him escape."
Ayong sneered: "His injury is serious, and the medicine he used contains a lot of Ruanjin San. If he wants to run away, huh, it's not that easy." He paused slightly, but said cautiously: "But, we still have to Move him to another place, and after dawn, blindfold him and send him out to Gudefang."
The leading guard should claim it.
Ayong turned around and left, glancing at the lush flowers and trees calmly.
After the time it took for a stick of incense to burn, the place became completely quiet. Meng Suige and Zhang Di, who were behind the flowers and trees, looked at each other before cautiously sticking their heads out.
The two people walked out with their heads in the air, walked to the wet pool of blood, and took a few fearful glances.
Several trailing traces of blood snaked into the distance.
Zhang Di was frightened for a while.
If it hadn't been for Meng Suigai's quick reaction just now, she would have been shot into a sieve now.
Meng Suige had seen many such scenes, and the number of lives in his hands was not one or two. However, his face was calm, and he walked under the wall to look at the flying claws hanging on the top of the wall.
I don't know if those people didn't pay attention to the flying claw at all, or they forgot to take it away. The flying claw was hung on the iron caltrops and the rope hung down, which made it easier for Meng Sui to stand behind them.
Meng Suigai grabbed the rope and stretched it. His flying claws were embedded in the iron thorns. There was no shaking at all. It was very strong.
He looked at the smooth wall with nowhere to focus, then turned to look at Zhang Di again.
If he was not injured, it would not be difficult to jump up with Zhang Di in the air.
But now, he looked at his right hand.
He only had one hand to climb with strength, but his feet had nowhere to use it. It was difficult for him to go up by himself. If he brought another person with him, he would not be able to climb halfway, and both of them would fall down and get bruised and bruised.
Zhang Di was obviously aware of this problem. She took a step forward and asked Meng Suigai in a low voice: "Mr. Meng, it is not easy to climb the mountain with such a high wall and there is no place for your feet to step on it, right?"
Meng Sui thought for a moment, and his eyes fell on the marks left by the arrow on the wall. They were of varying depths and uncertain positions.
He touched it with his hands. Although these arrow marks were not deep, they finally made the wall rougher, at least there was a place for his feet to put his strength.
His eyebrows jumped, and he quickly picked up the arrow on the ground, picked up a stone, asked Zhang Di to hold the arrow, and slammed the tip of the arrow into the wall.
Zhang Di was shocked: "Wouldn't this leave traces? People will find it!"
Meng Suige pursed his lips and glanced at Zhang Di.
Only then did Zhang Di realize that she had said something stupid, and in a flash she understood Meng Suigai's intention. She quickly picked up another arrow and placed it at a suitable position on the wall.
Meng Suige moved his left wrist and took a deep breath.
His injuries were too serious and his body was very weak. The blow had already used up most of his strength.
He had to take it easy.
After a moment of pause, Meng Suigai said to Zhang Di: "Move up."
Zhang Di said "Oh".
The two of them nailed an arrow like this and rested for a moment, not daring to make too much noise. It took them more than half an hour before they lowered their flying claws.
Four arrows were smashed into the wall next to the rope.
These four arrows were enough to support Meng Suigai to climb to the wall smoothly, but as for Zhang Di, he turned his head and glanced at Zhang Di.
Zhang Di naturally understood the meaning of Meng Suigai's glance. She looked at the four arrows far apart and felt a little helpless.
But they have delayed for too long and cannot delay any longer, otherwise things will change.
Zhang Di bravely said, "Don't worry, Mr. Meng, I won't hold you back."
Meng Suige looked at Zhang Di's pale face, and his voice softened involuntarily: "You go first, don't be afraid, I will follow you." He paused and looked up at the short man on the wall. The man's body: "When you go up, lie on top of that man so you don't get hurt by the caltrops."
Zhang Di said "Yeah", rubbed her damp hands, grabbed the rope, and stepped on the arrow closest to her.
After all, the arrow was thrown in in a hurry, and the nail was not very strong. Zhang Di did not dare to step on it so firmly, so she only cushioned it, using both hands to grasp the rope and move upward.
When she was halfway up the wall, Zhang Di felt her hands and feet were sore and weak, but the last arrow was still far away from her, so far away that she could hardly reach it.
Her legs were shaking, and she finally managed to climb to the top of the wall by stepping on the arrows. Her hands and feet were completely exhausted, and she was unable to climb to the top of the wall.
She stretched out her hand and tried again. Suddenly her arm softened and she fell down.
The scream was in her throat, and she was about to scream when she felt her body lighten up, her vision blurred, and she was lying on the bloody dead man.
Blood covered her hands and became sticky. She broke out in a cold sweat, her heart was pounding, and she almost jumped out of her chest.
Before she could recover, a muffled groan reached her ears. She turned her head and saw that Meng Sui was barely holding on to the wall with one hand, and she was almost unable to hold on.
Zhang Di was startled and hurriedly used all her remaining strength to pull Meng Suige up.
Meng Suige pulled out the arrows from the short man and threw them into the yard.
The two of them sat on the short man's body and rested for a while to calm down.
Zhang Di turned her head and looked behind her, feeling dizzy and her heart beating wildly.
She really climbed up from such a high place.
But I will jump down from here soon.
If you jump from such a high place, wouldn't you kill someone?
I can't think about it, my whole body trembles when I think about it.
Zhang Di asked tremblingly: "Meng, Master Meng, are you going to jump from here in a moment? Will you break your leg?"
Meng Suige didn't say anything, but silently changed the direction of the flying claw, locked it again, lifted the rope up, and threw it down along the outer wall.
"I'll go down first." Meng Suige grabbed the rope with one hand, tapped the outer wall with his toes, and fell down piece by piece.
The speed of falling is obviously much faster than the speed of climbing.
And with the experience of climbing up a high wall, Zhang Di's hands and feet became much more agile. Although she still stumbled when she came down, she still landed safely.
With her feet firmly on the ground, Zhang Di realized that she had really escaped from death. Her legs softened and she fell to the ground with a "thud".
But Meng Suige knew that now was not the time to be discouraged and take a rest. The gangsters in the Han Palace might discover that they had escaped at any time and chase them out.
He pulled up Zhang Di and whispered: "Find a hidden place to hide first, and wait until the gate opens before leaving the city."
Hearing these words, Zhang Di seemed to suddenly remember something, and suddenly shook her head: "Leave the city! No, I don't want to leave the city! I don't want to leave the city!"
Meng Suige frowned and said, "You're not leaving the city? Where are you going if you're not leaving the city?"
"I'm going home! I'm not homeless!" Zhang Di glared at Meng Suigai.
Meng Suige suddenly realized, yes, Zhang Di was originally forced to enter the Han Dynasty palace. She took this opportunity to escape. If she didn't go home quickly, what were she waiting for?
What?
But with her current status, everything will not be alright when she returns home!
Meng Suigao looked Zhang Di up and down, and threatened Zhang Di in a slow and low voice: "You are a serious concubine of the King of Han who has become a spy. If you leave without the permission of the King of Han, you are a runaway concubine. You will harm your brother." .”
Zhang Di was indeed frightened. She stood in the corner with her mouth slightly open, not knowing what to say for a long time.
In her hometown, she had seen how miserable and miserable the escaped concubines who had been captured were dealt with. Beating them into a dehumanized state was not the worst. The family members of the family who had been implicated were pointed at and had no place to stand. It's the most horrific.
She shuddered and suddenly came back to her senses: "No, I'm not going home. I, I'm going to Prince Qin's Mansion. I'm going to Prince Qin's Mansion. When my brother left, he told me to go to Prince Qin's Mansion when he was in doubt! "
Meng Suige was stunned, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. The concubine of the King of Han went to join the King of Qin. If someone discovered this, it would be the biggest excitement in the whole capital.
The green on King Han's head is like wildfire that cannot be burned away, and the grass is evergreen all year round!
He wanted to persuade him a few more words, but when he looked up, he saw Zhang Di had a determined look on her face. It was obvious that she had taken the weight and had given up her resolve. There is no way to persuade someone to come back.
He simply stopped trying to persuade him. If you behave yourself from somersaults, you will naturally know what is good and bad after falling too many times.
He looked around at the dark surroundings. The winding alleys were deep and dark, the moonlight was dim, and a thin layer of mist had risen on the bluestone road.
After a moment of silence, Meng Suige asked in a low voice: "Do you know where Prince Qin's palace is?"
Zhang Di opened her mouth: "I can ask."
Meng Suige asked again: "Then you plan to stay here all night and inquire about Prince Qin's residence after dawn?"
Zhang Di nodded: "I know that Prince Qin's Mansion is at the Sixteenth Prince's Mansion, so it must not be far away."
Meng Suige raised the corners of his lips and laughed suddenly, with a hint of sarcasm in his smile: "Then just wait here." He paused slightly and continued: "Don't say you saw me in the Han Palace. thing."
After saying that, he walked into the darkness without looking back.
"Hey, don't go, I'm afraid," Zhang Di's voice gradually lowered, and the last word "afraid" was swallowed up by the darkness.
She sat in the corner with her arms folded and her head buried in her knees.
She wasn't afraid when her brother was unjustly imprisoned, she wasn't afraid when she begged King Han, and she wasn't afraid when everything was wrong in King Han's palace, but now, she was afraid.
Even after the aftermath of the disaster, it will be even more unforgettable.
No one is not afraid of death. Those who say they are not afraid just don’t see a way to survive.
"Hey, King Qin hates crying people the most." A shadow shrouded the top of Zhang Di's head, and a voice that sounded like a smile but not a smile came to her ears.
Zhang Di slowly raised her head, and when she saw Meng Sui's smiling face, she immediately wanted to punch him and hit him all over the face.
The storybooks always say that so and so has a face that deserves to be beaten. I'm afraid that's what his face looks like!
"What are you doing back here, waiting to be caught?" Zhang Di replied angrily.
"Haha, you're quite angry!" Meng Suige laughed, stretched out his hand to pull Zhang Di up, and snorted: "Let's go, I'll take you to Prince Qin's Mansion."
"Ah," Zhang Di was surprised and anxious. She stood firm with Meng Suigai's hand, but she didn't take a step for a long time.
Meng Suige took a few steps forward, turned around and said, "You're not going? Have you changed your mind? Are you going to follow me out of the city?"
"Go! I'll go." Zhang Di came to her senses and chased after him in three steps and two steps.
Zhang Di guessed right. The Prince of Qin's Palace and the Prince of Han's Palace were both in the Sixteenth Prince's Palace. They were not far apart. After turning around a winding alley, he could already see the cornices and the neat glazed tiles flowing under the moonlight. The water shimmers.
Meng Suigai stood in the corner, pointed to the gate not far away and said, "Here, go to Prince Qin's Mansion."
Seeing the majestic and solemn courtyard, which was completely different from the Han Palace, Zhang Di suddenly felt timid. She took a step forward, stepped half of her foot into the dim light, and said hesitantly: "You, I, don't follow me. go?"
Meng Suige saw Zhang Di's fear, shook his head and chuckled: "I went, but you can't enter Prince Qin's Mansion."
Come on, go ahead." He paused slightly and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here to watch you. I'll leave after you go in."
"Who is scared?" Zhang Di muttered unconvincedly, straightened her back, and bravely walked into the dimly lit place, walked under the huge and solemn plaque, raised her hand and knocked on the door.
The knocking on the door was very loud in the middle of the night, and soon alerted the concierge who was keeping watch.
I don’t know what Zhang Di said to the concierge. Maybe King Qin had already given the order. In short, the concierge did not embarrass Zhang Di. After asking a few words, he quickly invited her in.
Meng Suige leaned against the corner and saw from a distance the genuine smile on the concierge's face under the light. He was not showing any signs of neglect. It must have been that the King of Qin valued Zhang Di and Zhang Yan very much and had already given instructions to them.
It seems that Zhang Di will not be in any danger in Prince Qin's Mansion.
He sighed slightly, turned around and walked in the opposite direction.
The front door of the Qin Prince's Mansion and the backyard of the Han Prince's Mansion returned to calm.
Ayong stood in front of the dilapidated house door and reached out to fiddle with the lock hanging on the lock.
There were soft footsteps behind him.
He asked without looking back, "What's wrong?"
The person behind him whispered: "They have escaped successfully. Just as the manager expected, one entered Prince Qin's Mansion and the other went towards Fangmen. It seems that they are waiting for daybreak to leave the city and head to Yuhua Mountain."
A Yong showed a confident smile and said calmly: "Of course they will escape smoothly, otherwise wouldn't those two people's death be in vain?"
The people behind him were filled with admiration and asked in a low voice: "Then manager, what should we do next?"
Ayong narrowed his eyes: "Let him go out of the city and intercept him in a secluded place. His usefulness has been exhausted and he can disappear completely."
The people behind him didn't know what A Yong was planning, but they just felt that all the hard work to bring in such a person, then all the hard work to make a plan to send him out, and finally to kill him, was all in vain. Kung fu.
It would be better to kill them directly to save trouble.
But he didn't dare to say this, so he respectfully said yes and turned around to make arrangements.
The sky was already bright, and the clear sunlight shone on the official road. Cars and horses were not stopping on the road, and dust was flying in the bright sunlight.
An old horse-drawn carriage was walking slowly along the side of the road. The driver was a young man with a dark complexion. He was extremely ugly. His only saving grace was that he had eyes as bright as stars and a clear and bright smile.
He is not ashamed to meet people because of his ugly appearance.
The boy raised his whip high and shouted loudly.
But the old horse was too old, and the cart was too shabby. No matter how high the boy raised his whip or shouted loudly, the old horse couldn't run fast.
With a "crash", the car curtain was opened, and a man with a sallow face and a haggard expression poked his head out and sneered: "Smelly girl, this old horse's teeth are about to fall out, and this car's wheels are almost broken. If I fall apart, just say that you can't run away even if you swing the whip so loudly that you can't run away. If you knock me to death again, you can't even afford to pay for it!"
Hearing what the man said, passers-by looked at the boy in surprise. It turned out that the driver was not a boy, but a girl.
Passers-by took one look at it and couldn't help but lament that God is really trying to play with people to death.
When a big girl looks like this, getting married in this life will be a dream.
This portrait was painted into a portrait and pasted on the door to ward off evil spirits, and pasted on the bedside for contraception!
The black-faced girl turned around and sneered: "I would like to buy a good horse and a good carriage. Will you pay for it?"
The haggard man was immediately speechless. He wanted to pay, but now his bag was cleaner than his face.
A hero without money is short of breath, and the young master is a head shorter than the maid!
The haggard man threw down the curtain angrily and sat back in the carriage.
Even though he was so dizzy from being jostled by this old horse that he opened the curtain and vomited several times, he never complained again.
The dark-faced girl was surprised. After vomiting for the fifth time, even the yellow water was vomited out. The haggard man who had nothing to vomit said: "Hey, that's really strange. Why don't you complain?"
The haggard man's face turned even yellower. He leaned against the car's shaft and breathed heavily. His mouth was full of bitterness: "You, you, try vomiting five times. Try, you still have energy. If you have energy, can't you talk!"
