Night falls over the land.
Yazhou City huddled in the dark night, and there was an inexplicable commotion hidden in the seemingly quiet city, like a giant beast that was pretending to be asleep.
Everything that happened during the day has been grasped by well-informed people. All kinds of details also flowed into the market from various channels, making people in Yizhou City boil, stirring up countless mud and dirt, and alarming countless urban foxes and rats.
On the dark city wall, the patrolling state soldiers walked feebly.
The sound of clappers chiming the time sounded from far and near in the city. Occasionally, a strong wind blew by, and the lanterns hanging on the city gate tower swayed wildly. The white lanterns were like the lights hanging in front of the mourning hall, which made people feel heartbroken unconsciously. It got cold.
The dull thunderous sound of hoofbeats came from afar, and the state soldiers stationed on the city wall suddenly became extremely nervous.
Following the direction of the southern official road, a line of torches stretching for miles rolled up like a fire dragon. A large group of cavalry in black heavy armor turned around at the south gate of Yazhou and headed northwest along the road, heading towards Went in the direction of Chu Castle.
Under the illumination of torches, the soldiers of the Chu family's private army all lowered their visors, and their hideous one-horned ghost faces and cheeks shone in the light, as if a real ghost had come to the world. The fog was thick and the lights were dim. The officers of the state army who were half leaning out from the top of the city looked blankly at these silent soldiers of the Chu family and couldn't help but shudder.
Chutian still wore the mask made of a whole piece of white fox skin. The long fox skin wrapped half of his body. He ran quickly in the dark mountain forest without leaking any smell or emitting any light. sound.
A faint inexplicable aura emanated from the white fox's skin. Wherever Chu Tian passed, insects chirped as usual, and the birds were not disturbed. Various small beasts traveling at night in the grass and burrows moved freely, as if they were passing by. The passing Chutian is a ghost shadow.
In the divine aperture between the eyebrows, the Heavenly Seal of Wind on the stone lamp shone slightly with cyan light. Wisps of invisible wind surrounded Chu Tian's body. He was floating forward almost three inches above the ground, running faster than before. Three times faster, a few minutes faster than Ah Que.
When the large group of people under the command of Chu Jie arrived in front of the Chu Castle, Chu Tian also followed them into the mountains and forests near the castle.
Standing among the tall thatch, Chu Tian looked quietly at the brightly lit main entrance of the castle a hundred feet away through the gap in the thatch. The suspension bridge made of pure steel is being lowered "squeaking", and the heavy Langya Wanjin Gate is slowly rising. The one and a half foot thick alloy city gate behind the Wanjin Gate is accompanied by a loud "rumbling" sound. It slowly opens under the driving force.
The sound of neat steps came from the castle, and a group of heavy infantry wearing heavy armor and holding long spears and halberds ran out in small steps. More than a dozen worshipers of the Chu family, wearing long robes, with different appearances and auras that were different from ordinary people, walked out quickly and lined up in two rows in front of the city gate with respect.
"Young Master!" More than a dozen Chu family members and hundreds of heavy infantrymen saluted Chu Jie who was sitting in a huge chariot.
"Mr. Qin, send capable people to monitor every move in the city of Yizhou. All the informants in the big and small prefectures, counties, villages, and villages of Yizhou are also activated. I want to control all the disturbances that happen in Yizhou!" Chu Jie's voice came from behind the thick chariot curtain.
"Keep a close eye on the Prefect's Mansion and Yaoshan Academy. What did those people there do, say, and eat, including the concubine that Sima Zhuifeng favored today, and that old man Xun Yu seduced him again? Which maid, please tell me everything."
Chu Jie's voice was cold and hard, with an inexplicable aura of violence.
It doesn't look like a young man is sitting in the chariot, but it looks like a ferocious tyrannosaurus is hiding inside.
"Here!" More than a dozen Chu family ministers all agreed. They surrounded the chariot and quickly entered the city gate under the escort of a large group of cavalry and heavy infantry. The suspension bridge was slowly pulled up, the 10,000-pound gate was slowly lowered, and with a loud "dong" sound, the heavy city gate was slowly closed.
"What are you doing here?" Lord Shu shook his head, lying on Chu Tian's shoulder and swishing his tail gently: "We can't get in! The Chu family put a lot of effort into building this castle, and it's really impenetrable , Lord Mouse’s children and grandsons can’t find their way in.”
While Lord Mouse was talking, a huge night owl spread its wings and flew silently from the mountains to the west. It was about thirty feet above the ground and glided silently past the wall of the Chu Castle. .
There was a "pop" sound, and suddenly there was a gray ripple with a radius of about ten feet in the sky above the Chu Castle. Countless thin electric lights jumped and collided violently in this ripple. The night owl with a wingspan of more than eight feet let out a scream, and the huge bird exploded into a plume of smoke at the snap of a finger.
Amidst the sound of "whooshing", a dozen dexterous figures wearing black tights jumped out from behind the city wall and quickly started swimming around the city wall. Three of the men in black were holding a small cyan lamp in their hands. The green light shone on the city wall, and the city wall actually became almost translucent in the green light.
"They are heavily defended!" Mr. Shu looked at the lantern and muttered in a low voice: "These ghost lanterns, last time Mr. Shu threw two chameleons in there, they all showed their true colors when illuminated by this light. Unless they are punched in hard, otherwise It’s not easy to sneak into Chu’s castle!”
"I still want to try." Chu Tian frowned and whispered, "Maybe I have a way here."
Mr. Shu flicked his tail, tilted his head, looked at Chu Tian, and nodded noncommittally: "Then, you try? It doesn't matter if you are discovered. If someone chases them out, we will lead them to Yishan Academy. This must be done." How nice!”
Chu Tian smiled, he quietly stepped back a few steps, and then left the Chu Castle step by step.
He counted silently, secretly calculating the distance between himself and Chu's castle. After a while, he retreated to the depths of the mountain forest, about five miles away from the castle wall, found a grass nest under an ancient tree, and sat down with his legs crossed.
Lord Shu lay quietly on Chu Tian's shoulder without saying a word. His scarlet eyes were shining in the dark night. There were many beasts like wolves and tigers wandering around late at night, and there were also a few wild animals wandering around. The scurrying poisonous snake shivered inexplicably, and subconsciously avoided the grass nest where Chu Tian was located over a hundred feet away.
For three years, Chu Tian has always wanted to know what the Chu family's castle looked like.
However, outsiders could not enter the heavily guarded Chu Castle. In order to invade the castle, Lord Mouse lost countless rats and mice.
Inexplicably lucky, Chu Tian received a strange inheritance. There was a secret technique in this inheritance, which he could perform in the Youfeng Realm. Chu Tian wanted to try it, hoping that this secret technique could help him solve his biggest problem in the past three years.
Crossing his hands and placing them on his chest, Chu Tian's breathing became extra long and slender.
In the jungle, an inexplicable aura spread quietly, and within a hundred feet, all bugs, small beasts, and birds, including small creatures such as earthworms in the soil, fell into the deepest sweet dream at the same time.
