Xiafeng City, Yulin Lane. Top novels are updated the fastest
It was already dark and there were few people on the road. The old noodle shop at the entrance of the alley was dimly lit. The three of them sat around a greasy square table, each holding a bowl of noodles with clear soup and little water. Lu Ping, who had just picked up a few noodles from the bowl with chopsticks, suddenly became stunned.
"What's wrong, you went to Beidou Academy and learned to be picky about food?" Chu Min said, watching him from the side.
"No, I've eaten this noodle before, it's delicious." Lu Ping said.
"Even if you're not picky about food, you don't have to be so picky about food, right?" Chu Min exclaimed, and even Ling Ziyan couldn't help but look at Lu Ping a few more times. Although she was born as a maid, she followed Miss Qin closely, so she never suffered much in terms of food. The current bowl of clear soup noodles cannot be called "delicious" from any angle, let alone "very delicious". Lu Ping's taste is indeed a bit appalling.
Lu Ping just smiled at this and didn't say much. After eating a few noodles he picked up, he said: "I was thinking about how Su Tang is doing now."
"Don't worry, you can't die." Chu Min said while eating noodles.
"Teacher, you have been saying this all the way." Lu Ping said.
"If it's really urgent, do I still have time to go to Beidou College to find you?" Chu Min said.
"Isn't it because of insufficient strength?" Lu Ping wondered.
"If Su Tang is about to die in front of you and you are not strong enough, what will you do?" Chu Min said.
"When you have the strength, come and avenge her." Lu Ping said.
"Don't you want to give it a try?" Chu Min said.
"Yes, but that's what she and I agreed." Lu Ping said.
"I haven't made any peace with anyone," Chu Min said.
"Oh." Lu Ping nodded.
The three of them continued to eat noodles. After a while, Lu Ping was the first to put down the bowl and drank all the soup.
"I'm full," he said.
Chu Min nodded and put down the bowl. He took out the wine bottle and took two sips to rinse his mouth.
"Are we still going to break into the City Lord's Mansion now?" Lu Ping asked Chu Min for his opinion.
"Originally, if we fight all the way from the city gate, if we move faster, we can catch them off guard. Now with such a delay, they may have some precautions." Chu Min said.
"They're not afraid of being on guard. They're just afraid of a slight disturbance, so they'll immediately attack Su Tang and Nightingale's people." Lu Ping said.
"It's troublesome not knowing exactly where they are being held," Chu Min said.
"Then wait until three days later?" Lu Ping said.
"Maybe there will be news from Beidou in the past three days, which will save us trouble." Chu Min said.
"What about the people who are monitoring us now?" Lu Ping said. He had already sensed that at least four people were paying attention to them.
"Ignore it." Chu Min said, "If you really cut off all their eyes, they will be nervous and maybe they will do something. Let them stare and feel more at ease."
"Okay." Lu Ping nodded.
The three of them immediately paid the bill and left the old noodle shop, and randomly found a cheap inn to stay in Yulin Lane.
The news quickly spread back to the city lord's palace.
Eating, finding a place to sleep, and monitoring Lu Ping and the others without any nutritious information. If they hadn't come into contact with Nightingale, the behavior of Lu Ping and the others would be almost the same as ordinary passers-by.
The first day, the second day, the third day...
"They have not left the inn, not a single person has been there. There have been no new residents in the inn in the past three days. Two of their previous residents have left, both ordinary people, but we are still monitoring this place. The two of them didn't find anything until they were ten miles away from Xiafeng City." Wei Chao submitted the surveillance report on Lu Ping and the others in the past three days.
"Senior brother and senior sister, what do you think?" Wei Tianqi asked Ge Bing and Liu Yun who were sitting aside.
"After three consecutive days of surveillance, I didn't notice anything at all. I think the abilities of these three people are also limited. The house guard you called earlier must have been careless and fell into the hands of others." Ge Bing said.
"Rather than this, junior brother, you should be more prepared to wait for the teacher. The teacher has already confirmed that he will arrive tomorrow." Liu Yun said.
"Sister, don't worry, everything has been arranged. It's just that the exact time of the teacher's arrival was not informed. From my side..." Wei Tianqi hesitated.
"Tomorrow's execution is to comfort my uncle's spirit in heaven. Of course, this must be the most important thing. You don't have to worry about the teacher, he will understand. Tomorrow, I will ask you, Senior Sister Liu Yun, to go to the north exit to wait for the teacher. I will monitor it with you. Kill it. Maybe our things are over and the teacher hasn't arrived yet, so you won't miss it." Ge Bing said.
"This is the best." Wei Tianqi said happily.
The night passed quickly, and it was dawn the next day. In another dilapidated courtyard in the impoverished area of Xiafeng City, Nightingales and others stood in the courtyard, getting ready to go.
Opposite them, Wei Ran, one of the twelve guards of the city lord's palace, was tied up like a rice dumpling and knelt weakly on the ground. Hua Yue stood aside with a solemn expression, watching everyone silently for a while, and finally spoke.
"For four years of Nightingale, brothers have shared weal and woe. The people standing here right now are all like me, who have never wavered in their belief in joining Nightingale. At noon today, many brothers with the same belief will be executed by the city lord's palace. We have to save."
"But the opponents are very powerful. Most of us have seen the two powerful men from Nantian College who have four souls. We are no match for only one of them. This time, we will definitely make sacrifices, even If the whole army is wiped out, our chances are very small, but it is by no means hopeless. Hope, this is what we have always believed in!"
"Hopefully we can rescue all our friends!"
"I hope each of us can return to the agreed place!"
"hope!"
As Hua Yue said, he suddenly waved one hand, and with a hiss, Wei Ran fell to the ground beside him, blood splattered all over the ground.
Everyone's blood was ignited at this moment, but they did not shout or vent. Everyone remained silent, just staring at the fallen Wei Ran, relief flashing in their eyes.
"Let's go!" Hua Yue said in a deep voice.
The people in the courtyard immediately dispersed and quietly set off in the direction they wanted to go. They were alone and weak, so of course they would not gather a crowd to fight against the city lord. Using the intelligence they dug from Wei Ran, they had secretly made many arrangements in the past three days, and now it was time to implement them step by step.
After a while, there were only three people left in the courtyard, and Wei Ran, who was lying in a pool of blood and lifeless.
"Mi San, you come with me." Hua Yue said to Mi San, one of the two in front of him.
"I know." Mi San nodded.
"In the past three days, you didn't go to those three people." Hua Yue said.
"You want me to go?" Mi Xian said.
"Fortunately you didn't go." Hua Yue said.
"Why?"
"Those three guys have been staying at a small inn in Yulin Lane for the past three days and have done nothing." The man beside Mi Chuan was exactly what Lu Ping sensed here three days ago. A person who has penetrated the realm of three souls is named Yu Ji.
"You sent someone to monitor them?" Mi Yan said.
"Of course I also hope to have more reliable helpers, but now it seems..." Hua Yue shook his head regretfully, "These three people don't know how to do anything. Could it be that they want to rob the execution ground?"
"Maybe." Mi San suddenly remembered the day when Lu Ping asked about the location of the city lord's palace, and he looked like he was going to break into it directly. There doesn't seem to be much difference between breaking into the city lord's palace and robbing the execution ground.
"Really?" Hua Yue's expression was cold, "Then I wish them good luck."
