Chapter 106: The Dockyard is Strange

The dock occupies a large area. It should have been an extremely important place in the Li Mansion. It could be called the lifeblood. There should also be a large number of people guarding it at night.

However, with the death of Li Bailiang, the Li Mansion fell apart. The dock that was once one of the best in the capital now only has a solitary lamp on the second floor that lights up and off, announcing that the dock has not been abandoned.

The pigeon just stopped here, which means that the person Anjia wants to deliver the message to is also here.

But the dock at the moment was eerily quiet, and there seemed to be no life at all.

Li and Cui's figures flashed and they jumped into the pier of the dock. At this moment, there were several large ships parked on the pier.

After confirming that there should be no one guarding around, Li Xunhuan and Cui Lueshang began to search the dock.

Li Xunhuan jumped onto a merchant ship. He originally thought it was an empty ship being repaired here, but he didn't expect that the plywood was piled with sacks. It was a cargo ship with a full warehouse.

Although it was too dark, Li Xunhuan could not see clearly, so he took out a fire stick from his sleeve and lit it. It was an ordinary sack, but Li Xunhuan touched the sack and found that it should be rice.

Just when Li Xunhuan was about to cut open the sack, he suddenly discovered that there seemed to be writing on the sack underneath.

In this life, Li Xunhuan had never abandoned his official position and entered the world of martial arts because of Yang Qingyuan, and his experience in the martial arts world was average. He was experienced in traveling at night and knew how to light a fire at such a time. If someone was watching, he would be able to see the light at a glance, and the infiltrator would be exposed immediately.

After pushing open the sack with internal strength, the words on it were revealed.

As soon as Li Xunhuan lit the fire, Cui Lueshang on the other side discovered Li Xunhuan's violation. He jumped onto the boat and stepped forward to blow it out. The moment he stepped forward, Cui Lueshang was stunned.

On the sack in front of Li Xunhuan was written the name Ruifeng of the Food Preparation Department of the Ministry of Household Affairs.

Ruifeng Warehouse was one of the five warehouses. Li Xunhuan took out a three-inch and seven-cent knife and cut open the sack in front of him.

Zhuiming was stunned again. He had heard that Li Xunhuan had the unique skill of throwing knives, but he didn't expect that flying knives could be used in this way.

"Wow!" The yellow corn poured out of the bag and fell to the ground.

The two of them were startled by the sound. The originally subtle sound was clearly audible in this quiet place.

Just when the two thought they were exposed, no one came to check, and the dock remained silent, as if no one was really watching.

The only light on upstairs has not changed at all, and is still flickering on and off, making the dock even more eerie.

"What's on this boat is the stolen grain from Ruifeng's warehouse!"

Li Xunhuan lit up the boat with fire, and the ship was filled with food.

"This ship can only hold two to three thousand shi of food. There are four such ships here, but they can only hold 10,000 shi."

The two of them jumped off the ship while transmitting messages, walked to the main door of the dock and closed it tightly. Cui Lueshang walked to the door.

Among the four famous arresters in the Shenhou Mansion, Zhui Ming became famous in the world at an early age. He later became a disciple of Zhuge Zhengwo, the sixth and fifth god lord. Cui Lueshang was quite proficient in some of the little tricks used to get around in the world.

Among them is lock picking, which is a very technical skill.

Just when Zhui Ming easily unlocked the door, Li Xunhuan stopped him and said, "Brother Cui, let's go through the window! This kind of opening makes a huge noise and can be heard by the guards. With the strength of the two of us, we may not be able to save food."

comprehensive."

Cui Lueshang looked at the unlocked door lock in his hand, which was a pity. However, what Li Xunhuan said made sense, and he was addicted to it, so he locked the door lock in his hand again.

The two showed off their qigong skills, jumped onto the roof of the dock, and climbed in from a warehouse on the east side. As soon as they landed, they saw the mountains of sacks piled up in the warehouse.

Yes, what is piled in this dock is not unfinished ships, nor piles of wood, but sacks that are exactly the same as the several merchant ships docked outside the dock just now.

Li Xunhuan took out the fire certificate again.

Sure enough, they were just like the ones outside. One of the sacks had the words "Food Preparation Department of the Ministry of Household Affairs" written on it. Of course, most of them were ordinary without any writing.

It must be that when I went to steal the grain store, I didn't bring enough sacks and used the sacks in the storehouse directly.

"This should be the stolen grain!"

There were mountains of grain bags piled up in the dock cabin, making it impossible for both of them to estimate the amount of grain in them.

After confirming, the two were about to leave. The moment they turned around, a gloomy aura came from the center of the dock warehouse.

Li Xunhuan and Cui Lueshang were instantly nervous.

The dark clouds in the sky dispersed, and a not-so-bright moonlight shone into the dock. Dozens of figures were standing quietly in the dock warehouse.

Li Xunhuan and Cui Lueshang reacted subconsciously. They were already warriors in the Yuanhua Realm, and their spiritual sense was far better than that of ordinary people. But these people in front of them had been standing there, and they didn't even notice?!

Not to mention the breath, I didn't even feel the breath.

Either these people are masters of the Yuan Hua Realm who deliberately hide their auras, or they are all dead.

Both answers made Li Xunhuan and Cui Lueshang unbelievable.

The An family wouldn't have so many masters of various realms, and a dead person wouldn't be able to stand so straight.

At this moment, time seemed to have stood still, as Li Xunhuan and Cui Lueshang carefully guarded against these unknown people.

After dozens of breaths, Li Xunhuan first discovered the problem.

"Brother Cui, have you noticed?!"

Cui Lueshang also noticed the problem, "There is something wrong with these people!"

"Li Yushi, I'm going to find out what's going on, and I ask you to hold the line for me."

Li Xunhuan nodded. When Cui Lueshang moved forward, a flying knife appeared in Li Xunhuan's hand. If these figures moved, this flying knife would help Cui Lueshang escape immediately.

As Cui Lueshang moved forward, the true energy in his body had reached its peak, and a thunderous strike would erupt at any time.

After getting closer to the figures, Cui Lueshang found that these "people" didn't react at all. Even though they were so close, they still didn't make any sound of breathing.

Cui Lueshang walked to a standing man and put his hand on his pulse point.

"died!?"

There was no pulse. Cui Lueshang tried three times in succession, but they were all the same.

"Li Yushi, these are not living people, just a few corpses."

After Cui Lueshang confirmed that these people had already lost their vitality, he felt relieved and sent a message to Li Xunhuan.

Just when Cui Lueshang put down his guard and walked to the corpse at the front to check it out, the corpse moved.

The corpse that was standing still suddenly punched Cui Lueshang. In a hurry, Cui Lueshang barely resisted, but the corpse seemed to have great power, and Cui Lueshang was knocked back with one blow.
