The number of people on guard in the courtyard was much smaller, but although there were fewer people, the guards were obviously much tighter. After all, these people only needed to guard one exit.
"Why are they all female warriors? Does this city lord have any special hobbies?" Li Xiao muttered in a low voice while looking around.
The location where the two of them were located happened to be at the intersection of two rows of houses to the east and south. Several small trees were planted here for viewing, which could be used to hide their bodies in a short period of time.
The two of them secretly observed here and determined that in addition to the six female warriors in the center of the courtyard, there were three more people in the room. Although the identities of the three people could not be determined, they believed that one of them should be the city lord.
Since there was no one in the surrounding room, Li Lei and Li Xiao were ready to take action. There was no need for detailed communication at all. They just exchanged a casual glance and the two of them already had a plan for their next action.
As soon as his body moved, Li Lei took the lead to walk out. His speed was not fast, but he was as light as a civet cat. Every time his foot landed, he seemed to be cautious as if he was afraid of stepping on a mechanism.
Li Xiao followed closely behind, and he followed with the same light steps, but as he moved forward, he paid more attention to his surroundings, especially the tall towers on both sides.
Most of the six female warriors focused their attention on that room, only occasionally glancing towards the north courtyard gate. After all, they never imagined that someone would be able to reach here from the outside with such strict security.
Li Lei and Li Xiao took advantage of a blind spot in their thinking.
When he was still more than two feet away from the six warriors, Li Lei gently raised his hand and stopped. Li Xiao, who cooperated tacitly, stopped without even looking forward.
steps.
Li Xiao, who was behind him, checked his surroundings for the last time and put his hand gently on Li Lei's shoulder. Li Lei's eyes flashed brightly, and he quickly waved his half-raised palm, and the two figures were as if they were leaving a string.
It shot out like an arrow.
It wasn't until the two of them appeared behind them that the two female warriors suddenly became aware of it. However, when they felt it, they just felt a strange breeze blowing behind them.
The eyes of the two women just moved backward subconsciously, but just as their eyes turned, there was a tingling feeling in the lower back. The feminine spiritual energy rushed into the meridians from the lower back, and the two of them felt
He couldn't control his whole body, he couldn't even make a sound, and he fell to the ground as soon as his body went limp.
When their bodies fell limp, Li Lei and Li Xiao had already arrived behind the other two women. They both vaguely felt something unusual behind them, so they turned around and looked back, only to find two
The strange man's face was very close.
A soreness and numbness surged up under their ribs, and both of them also fell down, with shock, fear and confusion in their eyes.
The position where the last two women were standing was actually closest to the door of the room. The reason why the Li Lei brothers placed them at the back was because they were the farthest on the route, and the other was that these two people also showed the most concern for the room.
In most cases, the line of sight stops there.
When the sound of four companions falling down one after another came, the two people also saw the figures speeding towards them. But they were too fast. They accelerated all the way. Although they lost four people, the speed of the two Li brothers
But it keeps accelerating.
When they rushed to the door of the room, the two women had just reacted. Both of them sensed that something was wrong, and their first reaction was to shout a warning, because they judged in an instant that they were not the two women in front of them.
Men's rivals.
Unfortunately, as soon as the two of them opened their mouths, spiritual energy rushed in from above their chests and below their necks, and immediately their entire bodies completely lost consciousness.
Brothers Li Lei and Li Xiao learned this technique from Zuo Feng. This is a fingering technique developed from the acupuncture technique and improved by Zuo Feng. You can start from many acupoints, but in the end they all
It relies on spiritual energy to seal a main meridian and the acupuncture points in it.
Li Lei and the others were very proficient in mastering this fingering technique, and combined with the extremely weak spiritual energy after suppressing it, the other warriors did not notice anything unusual after the first two attacks.
The two of them barely paused for a moment, opened the door and rushed in. This was not reckless, but they both had the same experience and judgment in this matter.
Generally, they are responsible for guarding mortals. The closer they are to the wàiwéi, the more attention they will focus on the outside. That is to prevent someone from breaking in, rescuing people or killing people. The closer they are to the inside, the more attention will be focused on the detainees.
In the past, the Li brothers were responsible for sneaking into the prison to kill people and silence them. They thought that the deeper they went inside, the tighter the defense would be. But in fact, after the two of them broke into the prison, they found that the other party was unprepared and easily killed the target.
Solved.
The current environment was almost the same as before. Without any hesitation, the two of them just opened the door and barged in. Even though they were mentally prepared, they were slightly stunned when the door opened.
The scene that appeared in front of me was not a dark cell, with no cold bars or floors covered with licorice.
It was a rather luxurious room. Although there were no windows in the room, it was illuminated extremely brightly by more than a dozen medium-grade spiritual light stones. Especially the pearls and jewels arranged in the room shone exceptionally under the light of the spiritual light stones.
The furniture and furnishings in the room can be considered to be of top quality, and are no worse than the furniture in the Su family's and Wang's mansions in Kuocheng. In addition, there are various conspicuous decorations in the room, including high-end large
Grassland tapestry, with gorgeous cloth produced in Tiānhuáng Dynasty.
Although the scene here surprised the two of them, they did not forget their mission. The two women in the room heard a soft knock from the door and turned their heads to look in confusion.
When they saw two strange men breaking in, they did not immediately warn them, but froze there. This was the confidence that Li Lei and Li Xiao dared to break in. The more people inside the cell, the more they were afraid of the outside intrusion.
The vigilance of the person is very poor.
After entering the room, the Li brothers no longer needed to suppress their cultivation. They boldly released their spiritual energy. They flashed in front of the two women like ghosts and used the same method outside to kill them directly.
From the beginning to the end, the two of them did not kill. This was not because they were soft-hearted, but because they did not want to cause trouble. In this environment, killing would not be more labor-intensive, and the smell of blood would arouse the vigilance of nearby warriors, which would not be helpful in saving people.
help.
Li Lei winked, and Li Xiao immediately turned around and rushed out. There were still six female warriors lying outside the room. After he came out, he immediately moved them to a blind spot under the eaves, so that they could temporarily avoid being discovered.
He had just finished dealing with it, and Li Lei had already walked out of it carrying someone on his back, but at this time, Li Lei looked like he was about to cry without tears.
"What's wrong?" Li Xiao asked in confusion. His brother clearly carried someone out, but he looked as if his action had failed.
"Let's go!" Li Lei sighed secretly. He didn't explain anything. He only said one word and rushed out quickly, heading straight towards the corner of the room where he came in.
The two brothers cooperated tacitly. Li Lei didn't say anything and Li Xiao didn't ask any questions. He just walked quickly behind his brother. Only then did he see some problems.
The figure of the person on Li Lei's back looked completely different from that of City Lord Zuo Feng. Especially the more he observed, the more he felt that the figure resembled that of a woman.
His mind was obviously full of questions, but Li Xiao could only hold back and quickly jumped out from the corner of the room. This time it was much smoother than when he came in, and the speed of the two of them was obviously faster.
But before the two of them left the courtyard less than five feet away, a warning signal came from a sentry tower. Most people would definitely choose to run away at this time, but Li Lei and Li Xiao did the opposite.
, they lurked immediately after hearing the warning.
Turning around and looking around, he saw countless figures gathering towards the courtyard. Li Lei then said softly: "It seems that the sentry found that the six warriors in the courtyard were missing. There is no way to solve this problem. Sooner or later we will meet
If we are discovered, let’s try not to get entangled with each other and leave here first.”
At this time, Li Xiao could no longer bear it and asked his brother, "What is going on? Where is the Lord of the City? Where did you get this person back from?"
Li Lei had a depressed look on his face and shook his shoulders slightly. The hood covering the head of the person behind him slipped off, revealing a head full of black hair. Especially from his exposed appearance, it was obvious that he was not very old.
And she's still a beauty.
It's just that this woman's eyes are now closed tightly, and her breathing always maintains a fixed rhythm. It's obvious that she is falling into a coma at this time.
"Who is this girl?"
Li Xiao couldn't help but ask. He knew that his brother was by no means a lewd and evil person. Especially, even if he had some thoughts about women, he would not kidnap people, let alone sabotage the operation to rescue the city lord.
Shaking his head, Li Lei sighed lightly and said: "This woman was the only one in the room, and these people seemed to be responsible for guarding this woman.
Although I don’t know her identity yet, I am sure that this woman is extremely important to the city lord. Now that we have no clues and information about the city lord Zuo Feng, we can only kidnap this woman first. In this way, at least the other party will use it as a trap.
I won’t do anything extreme to Zuo Feng, and I can still use this woman in exchange for him at critical moments.”
Things changed so suddenly that Li Lei couldn't think of any good solution under the circumstances. He took the woman out without even finding out her identity and origin.
