Chapter 14: Night break into the Prince Lu's Mansion
Night, Prince Lu's Mansion.
There were three people standing in a big house.
One, in the cage.
Two, outside the iron cage.
Let’s talk about the two outside the cage first.
Among them, one of them dressed in brocade clothes is the prince of the Prince of Lu's Mansion.
This person's surname is Zhu, which is the "little prince" we mentioned before. I think I have explained this kind of obscene word before, so I will not repeat it here.
This Zhu, who was twenty-five years old this year, gave birth to the face of Zhang Guo, and his facial features were very distinct.
It was a thick eyebrows, apricot, a big eye, a bridge of the nose, a square sea and a wide mouth... This look was slapped in front of you, and you would definitely be unforgettable to you.
In terms of body shape, Zhu Yi is also different from ordinary royal children: most of the descendants of the royal family at that time were fat and weak because of lack of labor and luxury. However, Zhu Yi seemed to have made his figure very agile. Although his height was only less than 1.7 meters, he could still give people a tall and strong feeling.
Of course, if he wants to compare with the other person standing beside him at this moment, he is far behind...
But when he saw that guy, with a head of a master, with a strong appearance, and his hair as a mane... He just stood there, and he was like a vajra of Arhat, with a terrifying power.
Who is this person?
The endorsement in the book here is the leader of the Fire Lotus Sect - Zi, who calls himself the "Fire Lotus Immortal".
You can tell from his name that this is not a serious Taoist priest.
Generally speaking, no matter whether it is the Taoist sect that is unknown to the world, or the Taoist sects known to the world, they will not give such Taoist names related to corpse evil; only the demonic way will create underworld names such as "Nine Poison God Lord" and "Yinshan Tianzun".
This corpse slaughter is undoubtedly the successor of the Demonic Way, but he is not very powerful, he just learned some basic knowledge.
His master is a bit capable, and we will also mention it later, so I won’t talk about it here for now.
I also talk about this corpse...
This guy was wearing a black robe. The style of the robe looked like a monk but not a monk, and a Taoist but not a Taoist. The front two collars of the robe and the middle behind the robe were embroidered with a fire lotus logo. Combined with his appearance, he looked like a cult ancestor.
How did such a person get along with Zhu?
Nothing else... use each other.
Zhu Yu has a very ambitious ambition, and the position of King Lu cannot satisfy him, so he wants to use the magic power of Zi Yanzi to use the "Fire Lotus Sect" as a springboard to achieve another great cause.
As for the corpse, he would not refuse the protective umbrella of the "Lu Prince's Mansion" - with the support of Zhu Yu, at least in the Jining realm, his Fire Lotus Sect is definitely rampant.
These two people have their own ulterior motives. No one regards each other as an individual, but just treats it as a cup of milk tea that can be thrown away after drinking.
But on the surface, they still acted as a respectful attitude of the master and servant, and were kind and kind. After all,... they could not finish this cup of tea in a while.
"Ha...yes, this is really a strange thing." At this moment, Zhu Yi was surrounded by the large iron cage more than one person in the middle of the room, looking up and down at the person in the cage, and muttering something.
Zi Yanzi looked gloomy and responded respectfully: "It's good that the little prince likes it... But to be honest, this time this time is rare. I have taken a lot of effort..."
"Oh~ I can't treat you badly." Zhu Zhi knew that the other party was going to be good, so he immediately responded impatiently, "Isn't it the Cold Clothes Festival in a few days? Just find a reason to let the people 'burn' it again, and I'm sure."
"Yes." The corpse boy lowered his head and smiled, "Thank you little prince."
"Eh?" Zhu Xi was not interested in the details of the corpse and Zi making money. At this time, his attention was all on the man in the cage, so he immediately asked, "Can he speak?"
"I can only speak mantras." said Zi Yanzi, "No one can understand."
"Oh..." Zhu Xi looked a little disappointed, "If he taught us, could he learn it?"
"It should be possible." Zi Yanzi replied, "As far as I know, there were records of domesticating this Kunlun slave as early as the Tang Dynasty. Even if he could not teach him, he could at least understand him."
You may also understand that the object of their comments at this time, that is, the person locked in an iron cage, is a black man.
As Zi Yanzi said, during the prosperous Tang Dynasty, there was a saying of "Kunlun slaves and Silla maids" in Chang'an, my country. Some of them were black slaves offered to Arab countries, and some were inflows from the South China Sea and the coastal generation. Of course, people at that time could not tell the difference between African blacks and Southeast Asians. Those who saw dark skin thought they were "Kunlun slaves".
In the great dynasty where our story takes place, black people on China are even rarer than in the Tang Dynasty.
Although in Europe and the American continent, this time was the heyday of the black slave sales industry in the 17th century, the imperial court was completely uninterested in this area, and even had a forbidden attitude.
The "Kunlun slave" given to the little prince by the corpse was caught by some pirates on the sea and entered Dazhi from the coastal area of Fujian.
Originally, after a lot of transactions, the group of human traffickers who bought him planned to transport him all the way to the capital and sell him for a big price. Unexpectedly, when he passed by Shandong, Huo Lian was taught to "intercept the Huhuo".
There is no way, they can only sell it to the Fire Lotus Sect at an acceptable price. If they don’t sell it, they may not only be able to get the money, but their lives will be left behind.
"Well..." At this time, Zhu Qing heard that he could "taste" this black uncle, and his expression stretched a little further, "Okay, okay... Haha... This is more fun than that bird and beast." He paused, suddenly remembered something, and said, "By the way, does he have a name?"
"Most Kunlun slaves have no name." As Zi Yanzi said, he took out an iron card from his sleeve. "But... this Kunlun slave seemed a little special. The pirate who caught him carved his name on the iron card. His name was..."
The words of the corpse boy came to an abrupt end here.
He suddenly stopped moving, stopped speaking, and his expression suddenly changed, and his whole body stood stiff.
After this lasted for five seconds, he spoke again: "Someone is here."
"What?" Zhu Xu looked puzzled, not understanding what he meant.
The corpse can only be said more specifically: "A outsider... has broken into the palace."
…………
A few minutes ago, outside the Lu Palace.
In the night, a figure came silently like dew wading through the leaves.
This man was wearing a quail dress, with straw sandals, a bundle on his chest and a single knife on his back.
This look looks like... three points look like an assassin, and seven points look more like a thief.
The garrison of the Lu Palace is not strict, but it is not in vain. In addition to the illumination of lanterns everywhere and the guards patrolling according to fixed routes... there are also many dogs in the high-walled courtyard.
As we all know, dogs are unique among all the anti-theft systems in this world.
I don’t care what kind of martial arts master you are or the IMF team, even if your feet are not stuck to the ground, as long as you are discovered by a dog, you will still have to be exposed when the screams come out.
Of course, it is not difficult to break through this "system"...
But when he saw the guest in the quail clothes coming to the foot of the wall, he used his ear skills to identify the guard's position, and confirmed that there was no one nearby for the time being, he took out a few glutinous rice dumplings from the bag he carried with him, threw them into the yard with his hand.
There are generally two ways to do this trick -
The first type: stir the glutinous rice and the woman's hair together, pinch it into a ball, then fry it with sesame oil, and throw it to the dog for food. As long as the dog eats it, it will not open its mouth, and it will not be able to bite people or scream.
The second type is also to fry glutinous rice dumplings in sesame oil, but the hair is not mixed in, but the medicine is directly applied to let the dog fall asleep after eating it.
What is the difference between these two methods?
It's very simple. The first method is more time-saving. As long as the dog bites the ball, the thief can climb over the wall and enter the yard. However, if no one discovers it in time, the dog has a certain chance of dying.
The second method is to use. After throwing the dumpling, you have to wait a while. The thief has to confirm that the dog eats the dumpling and falls asleep before entering the yard. This increases the risk of exposure, but the advantage is that the dog will only fall asleep and is not at risk of life... Of course, being beaten to death by the owner afterwards is another matter.
Maybe someone wants to say again, why are you doing that? Isn’t it the same to poison the glutinous rice dumplings directly and poison the dog to death?
This...is not in accordance with the rules.
As the saying goes, there is also a way of stealing.
Don’t you think that the people in Green Forest do illegal things, but there are also people who pay attention to it.
It is OK to put poison in the glutinous rice dumplings, and the cost of poison is indeed lower than that of the drug, but there is a danger in doing so - there may be extra dumplings scattered on the ground and stuffed them into your mouth by the child the next day.
You were born in a new society and you may feel that you picked up the food on the ground and put it in your mouth incredible, and it is hard to imagine that there will be ignorant children running around in the yard and no one will watch them. But at that time, this was not a problem.
The child picked up the dumplings with hair and ate them. Because people can pull out the things stuck in their mouths with their hands. After chewing them for a few bites, they will naturally sniff out and vomit.
And those who put the drugs will not kill anyone.
But if you put poison in the dumpling, although the probability is not high... it is indeed possible to accidentally poison someone to death.
Therefore, there is a rule on the Green Forest Road that if you beat a dog, you will not be fed the poison. Whoever feeds the poison will be guilty of the sin of losing your son and grandson.
This quail-clothed guest was also abide by the rules. He threw the ball with the drugs, so he waited for a while after throwing it. After confirming that the two dogs behind the wall were not moving, he climbed over the wall and was admitted to the hospital.
What a pity...
This brother, who counted as guards and dogs, did not count. In addition to these common anti-theft methods, the Lu Prince's Mansion also has a "insurance" - Taoist technique.
He didn't know that the corpse had already set up a hidden array in the wall of the Lu Prince's Mansion. As long as someone who had not touched his "Fire Lotus Sect's Incense" came in, the caster would immediately notice it.
This move, Zi Xiaozi told Zhu that it was to "protect the little prince", but in fact... he wanted to monitor the prince's mansion more to prevent Zhu from secretly summoning some people he didn't know here when he didn't know and doing something he didn't know.
At present, as soon as the guest in the quail-clothed mansion stepped into the courtyard wall of the Prince of Lu's Mansion, the corpse in a room far away in the inner courtyard sensed it, so the latter stopped and focused on it.
The quail-Yi Guest was also very good at lightness. He easily climbed over the high wall and quickly passed through the huge yard silently. When he approached the inner courtyard, he gently tapped under his feet, swam up the wall, and climbed up the eaves with one hand.
A habitual thief on the green forest road like him usually has his own analysis of the architectural structure of wealthy families. After all, he has been admitted to the hospital with less than 100 or 80 years, and he has rich experience.
Furthermore, at that time, the division of four wings in the southeast, west and north was originally regular, and it was indeed not difficult to distinguish the location of the warehouse based on the distribution of guards in the house.
Therefore, after a brief observation, the guest of the quail clothes determined the target.
Then, he swam along the eaves like a gecko, and soon he arrived at the door of the warehouse when he was covering the moon with the black clouds.
The warehouse is the warehouse. Even in the middle of the night, there were two lanterns hanging at the door, and two guards stood.
But... in that era without cameras, it is conceivable how much the guards can steal by being lazy.
Let’s talk about the two people at the door of the warehouse. One was holding the spear in his hand, with his back against the wall, and his eyes were closed; the other was simply sitting on the ground, throwing the spear aside.
You said, if they are like this, will the people who come to take over the job scold them when they see it?
It’s a shift system. In the future, it’s their turn to be on day shifts. When others are working at night, they will naturally pretend not to see it.
After all, everyone works, and it is not easy to make money, so why bother each other?
Bang-
Bang-
When the quail-Ye Guest fell from the eaves, he didn't make any noise when he landed on the ground. However, when he knocked out the two guards, he still made a little noise.
Here is another topic. The operation of "striking someone with a knife to knock someone out" that is widely used in films, TV and animation is almost impossible to succeed in reality.
If the attack is light, the person will not faint at all; if the attack is heavy, the person may faint, but it may also cause permanent spinal damage or death on the spot.
Moreover, there is no standard for this strength, because the physique of people cannot be generalized. Even if the same force and angle are used to fight, it may be different results.
Similarly, the chin, temples, abdomen... is similar.
So, let’s talk about the character in our book, this Quilli-Yi Guest. How can he explain his operation?
It’s easy to say, using internal force to punch specific acupoints to ensure coma but not death.
"You are very brave."
Just as the guest of Queyi leaned over to the two guards to find the keys, suddenly a voice sounded from behind him.
"You dare to break into the palace." The person who spoke was obviously the corpse, "I think you are desperate!"
