Seeing that it was evening, I took Alaya and set off to the south of the city.
The granary is easy to find, even if there is no threat of assassins, this is one of the safest areas in the whole city. An open space was marked around the granary, and no traffic was allowed around this area. If anyone tries to approach the granary, they must show me or Heyue's direct token.
But there are still problems. For example, due to the shortage of manpower, it is difficult to arrange the guard posts densely, and there is still a certain distance between them. Another example is that tonight is another month of dark and windy night, with layers of dark clouds and no stars or moon in the sky. When walking on the street, you have to hold a torch to see the road under your feet clearly.
To be fair, in weather like this, it would be strange if nothing happened.
When I arrived in the south of the city, I immediately saw Bai Huang hiding behind a house, sticking his head out, looking left and right. There was still half a meat bun in her mouth, I took Alaya to touch it quietly, stood behind her, and yelled sullenly:
"Xiao Huang..."
Bai Huang jumped up with a "wow", turned to me like a cat with fur, and quickly retreated, only to stumble on both legs and fall backwards. I quickly reached out and pulled her back. But the strength was not well controlled, so Bai Huang put his head in my arms.
Then I was pushed away mercilessly.
Bai Huang glanced regretfully at the bun that fell to the ground when he was frightened, and lost his temper at me and said:
"How old are you, still playing such scary tricks?"
I also complained:
"How old are you, can you still be frightened by such a scary trick?"
Baihuang snorted:
"Didn't you see that my aunt is standing guard intently?"
I also laughed angrily and said:
"Is this useful for you? You can't even notice that Alaya and I are approaching. If an assassin really comes, wouldn't you be the one who gave away the head?"
Bai Huang patted her thigh, crossed her hips and said:
"Hey! Would it scare me to be someone else just now? Heji! Come out and show them!"
A pile of firewood in front of the house not far away suddenly started to move, the top pieces of dry firewood fell down, and a head poked out from it, it was Heji. He smiled wryly and waved to Alaya and me, then dived in again, not forgetting to find a few pieces of firewood to put on his head and bury himself.
Bai Huang rolled her almond eyes and gave me a blank look, with a confident look on her face.
She patted her breasts, which are average in development, but still much stronger than Alaya's, showing her small canine teeth, and said to me:
"Stupid! Auntie has figured it out a long time ago. Do you know what this is? This is called leading a snake out of its hole. I will guard here as bait. When the assassin sneaks up on me, Heji will descend from the sky. Unexpectedly, we will naturally be beaten and fled by the two of us. This is a strategy that is like a genius. If it wasn't for the two of you just now, Heji has already done it now Hmph, if you dare to provoke me, my aunt, I will beat her all over the floor today!"
I clapped beside me expressionlessly, and said in my mouth:
"Awesome, awesome."
But I was thinking in my heart, brother Heji was really suffering, why did such a good young man follow a fool?
Let's not talk about whether the assassin will be idle and have nothing to do, come over and beat you. Even if she makes a move, Heji's firewood pile is at least 30 meters away from you, will he have time to save people
No wonder Heji had a wry smile just now, he probably thought it was useless.
Baihuang seemed to be having a chat, so he grabbed me and continued to explain:
"In addition, I have already laid a net here. As long as the assassin dares to come, I will definitely hang her in all directions."
"Is it really that strong?"
Seeing the questioning look on my face, Bai Huang took my arm and walked towards the sentry post without hesitation. A soldier stood there, holding a long gun tightly in his hand. Seeing Bai Huang bring me and Alaya over, I straightened my chest even more.
Bai Huang stood in front of the soldiers and said to me:
"See what's the difference?"
I looked up and down, and replied:
"No."
Bai Huang said to the soldiers:
"Hold out your hand."
The soldier stretched out his hand, and with the help of the firelight, I finally found a thin thread tied to the soldier's finger. The thread stretched into the distance. Looking at the direction, it seemed to be the location of the next sentry post. Bai Huang said confidently:
"See, this is the silver thread trapped dragon array developed by myself, which can make up for our lack of numbers. Use lines to connect everyone together. In case a soldier falls or falls into a fighting state, other soldiers You can feel it immediately, and run over to support. You can move your whole body with one hair, even if the gods come, don’t even think about sneaking in quietly.”
The soldier shouted very appropriately:
"Please rest assured, Lord City Lord and Lord Baihuang!"
Seeing his confident appearance, I patted him on the shoulder and said:
"Full vigilance! Survive tonight and give out bonuses tomorrow!"
The soldier said loudly:
"yes!"
Bai Huang continued:
"Besides, I've laid all kinds of traps here... Hey, wait, here's a hole. Stop! Wait, don't touch the bell over there. Oh! You can't go there, over there There is an ambush. Yes, it is safest to go this way and follow me. Ah, by the way, did you see those bushes? I split up the patrol team and distributed them around in twos and threes. The guards in charge of security here are one dark and one bright, no matter how strong the assassin is, it is impossible to hide it from all eyes."
I looked around, I couldn’t see clearly in the dark, Baihuang made many simple trigger traps nearby with very thin wires, a bit like the infrared traps I’ve seen before, but more primitive Some. Even so, it can be seen that she has spent a lot of effort, no wonder she was eating meat buns alone at night, presumably she didn't even have time to have a serious meal.
So are these traps useful?
All I can say is that it depends on the IQ of that assassin.
But now I have another question:
"Xiao Huang, where did you get so many silk threads?"
Bai Huang knocked on the head and said:
"Look at my memory. Isn't your quilt also made of silkworm silk? I thought it was tough and not easy to find, so I took it apart and used it. But one bed is not enough, so I put the bed sheet The bedding and bedding have also been disassembled and used, I will take it back and send it to you later."
I asked in bewilderment:
"Then where am I going to sleep tonight?"
Bai Huang smiled meaningfully and said:
"Didn't I ask you to send Fang Shisan to my bed? She is not in Yuxi City now, so you can sleep in her room and it will be over. Anyway, she doesn't mind, and you don't mind, so let's live together in advance."
yes.
I glanced at the expressionless Alaya, and thought to myself: That's really the end, it's the end.
Seeing Bai Huang's half-smile, I scratched my head.
Woman, you really hold a grudge.
