Zhang Bilin led eight captains in black into the Xiaoyao Building. His soap-patterned boots were thundering under his feet, and his steady, powerful and neat footsteps seemed to overwhelm the noise of playing cards and throwing dice inside.
At night, this is the busiest time in Xiaoyao Tower.
The gamblers stopped what they were doing and looked at them curiously, but no one was afraid of running away. Since they were Jin Yiwei, they must have come to arrest the officials. They were happy to watch the excitement, but if the police came, they would probably be in chaos. Woke up.
Zhang Lin and Zhang Lin were familiar with the road and rushed straight to the third floor. The guards upstairs wanted to stop them, but Zhang Bi roughly pushed them away. The captain behind them immediately drew out his knife and blocked all the guards.
"It's my first time to capture someone. This feels a bit overwhelming!" Lin Linyou said with a smile, "I feel like the blood in my body is boiling. How can I enjoy arresting a few officials?"
"There is a chance." Zhang Ben said.
Pushing open the main room on the third floor, the Marquis and Eunuch were sitting in the armchair with a nonchalant expression just like last time, still playing with the two golden balls in their hands.
The difference is that this time, Zhang Bian and Lin Linyou are not as groveling as last time.
I felt Jiang Hua's mood - as expected, someone was backing him up, and his back was much stiffer.
"Master Marquis, we meet again." Zhang Bi said with a smile, "You guessed it right, this time, we are here with driving tickets."
"Hmph!" Eunuch Hou let out a sharp groan, "You are so bold! Without the emperor's decree, who would dare to come to our house to take someone away?"
"You have made Emperor Taizu Gao's Xiaoyao Tower such a mess. Do you think we should take it?" Lin Linyou said loudly.
After hearing this, Eunuch Hou's expression changed. He didn't change Xiaoyao Tower. It had become a gambling house a few years ago, but it was under his hands that it flourished and prospered.
"However, this time, I'm just giving you a warning." Zhang Bi said, taking out the driving notice, "I was ordered to capture the traitor Jin Chang. Where are the others?"
It turned out that it was not his own. Eunuch Hou relaxed on his face and wanted to take a closer look at the driving post, but Zhang Bi had already retracted his hand.
Seeing that Eunuch Hou was silent, Lin Linyou reached over and took the two golden balls in his hand. He weighed them and found they were heavy. He squeezed them a little harder and flattened them... they were indeed hollow!
It seems that this eunuch really doesn't know martial arts.
Lin Linyou was relieved now. The last time he saw this eunuch easily clamping two golden balls into a golden cake with one hand, he thought he was a master with deep internal strength.
"If your father-in-law didn't tell you, could it be that he wanted to protect you?" Lin Linyou returned the gold cake to Eunuch Hou.
"They were there just now!" Eunuch Hou looked at the two flat golden cakes, and a touch of pain disappeared in his face. He raised his hand and ordered the two guards around him, "You guys, take the two adults to look for them!"
Could it be that this guy got wind of it and fled in fear of crime?
But this time the eunuch was quite cooperative.
Considering that Jin Chang's illusion skills are really powerful, Zhang Bi and Lin Linyou pulled out a gauze from their sleeves as soon as they walked out of Eunuch Hou's room...
The gauze is available in many colors, mainly black. Its main function is to prevent wind and dust, followed by decoration. There are also assassins who use it to look cool or to prevent bleeding, which coincides with the modern killers who wear sunglasses and have the same purpose.
High officials like Ximen love to wear gauze.
Before setting off, Zhang Bi said that illusion is a trick based on blindness. Since it is a blindness, we should cover our eyes and we should be able to break his illusion.
Lin Linyou was puzzled: "If you cover your eyes, you won't be able to see? Brother, can you tell me where I am by hearing the sound?"
Zhang Ben smiled and said nothing, shaking out a piece of black gauze from his arms.
"What, a menstrual belt?" Lin Linyou curiously took the gauze, "Why is this thing black? Aren't they usually white?"
"Ignorance, this is called eye gauze!" Zhang Ben said, "Just like the sunglasses we had at that time, they were used by the ancients to block light and prevent sand and dust!"
"Oh, no wonder I said it looks familiar. Is this what Fang Shiyu is wearing?" Lin Linyou asked, "Can you see anything when wearing it?"
Zhang Ben put on the eye gauze three times: "You will know if you put it on and see."
"How cool!" Lin Linyou looked at Zhang Bi who was wearing a black gauze: "Brother, you look like..."
"Does he look like Fang Shiyu, who carries a dozen knives on his back and cuts from the end of the alley to the end of the alley?" Zhang Ben's mouth raised under his eyes, "Handsome, isn't he?"
"No," Lin Linyou said, "It looks like that turtle in the sewer."
"Fuck you! Stop talking nonsense, put it on and take a look!"
Lin Linyou also put on a gauze.
Zhang Bi took a look and said, "It does look a bit like a Ninja Turtle!"
…
The two stepped out of Eunuch Hou's room and put on their gauze. Lin Linyou suddenly thought of something, stopped and said, "Brother, something is wrong..."
"What?" Zhang Ben asked suspiciously.
"Eunuch, shouldn't he have a castrated voice?" Lin Linyou whispered.
"Smoke voice? I hate this name the most!" Zhang Bi muttered, "Singing with phlegm in your mouth is called Yan voice. I don't know who named it!"
"I mean, castrate!" Lin Linyou said, "This eunuch's voice doesn't sound thin enough!"
"Isn't it the same as last time?" Zhang Bi said, "It sounds like nothing has changed to me!"
"My intuition tells me that something is wrong with him!" Lin Linyou turned around and looked at Eunuch Hou with the look of an eagle looking at a wolf.
Through the hazy eyes, I saw Eunuch Hou sitting in the armchair, with a face that looked like Chang Jin!
Lin Linyou thought he was dazzled, so he blinked, and when he took a closer look, his face changed back to that of Eunuch Hou...
But Zhang Bi had already ordered: "Arrest him!"
Eunuch Hou's two guards were about to step forward to stop him, but they were knocked to the ground by Captain Jinyi on the side. It is not known whether one of them resisted too fiercely or Captain Jinyi attacked too harshly. After a few moves, they jumped over the guardrail and passed away. After falling from the third floor, a shrill cry rang out, and it was replaced by a loud "bang". The guard crushed a table, sawdust and silver dominoes flew in all directions, and the guard lay limply in the middle. What you see is that you are no longer alive.
Captain Jinyi took the shackles and came forward, and locked Eunuch Hou neatly with a "click".
Eunuch Hou didn't resist, he just let Suo go and sneered: "Zhang Baihu, the name written on the driving ticket is not our name!"
Zhang Ben stepped forward and carefully looked at Eunuch Hou's face through the gauze: "Stop pretending, Mr. Jin? Is this a disguise or an illusion?"
Eunuch Hou was stunned for a moment, then let out a long laugh. After he finished laughing, he lowered his head and held his face in his hands. After a while, when he raised it again, Eunuch Hou's face had become Jin Chang's face.
The personal guard of Eunuch Hou who was pinned to the ground by the Jin Yiwei obviously didn't realize that Eunuch Hou was actually Jin Chang pretending to be Jin Chang, and there was an incredible look on his face.
"Take him down and escort him back to the imperial prison to await trial!" Zhang Bi ordered.
The captains of the school deposited Jin Chang, and Zhang Bi and Lin Lin followed him around the palace.
Zhang Bi pulled off his gauze and said: "This thing is still useful... But second brother, how did you see through him?"
"Intuition, a man's sixth sense." Lin Linyou also pulled off his eye gauze, "When I crushed his two golden eggs."
"oh?"
"I caught a flash of pain on his face." Lin Lin said, "It seemed that what I crushed was not the egg in his hand, but... he didn't have this expression last time."
"You are like a blind cat who met a dead mouse!" Zhang Bi disagreed, "Maybe he had the same expression last time, but you and I didn't catch it. Or maybe he pinched it himself last time, So I don’t feel sad or regretful.”
"Then it's still intuition." Lin Linyou said, "But my intuition now tells me, are we going too smoothly this time? It feels like something is not right..."
