Chapter 177: The Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada
The imperial palace of Middle-earth is located on the north side of Suncheon.
Therefore, the north is also the most closely guarded place, where there is not only the garrison of the Imperial Forest Army, but also the horse farm of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, and there is also a Xuantian Temple in the northern suburbs.
Xuantian Temple is a temple of descendants, and the opposition to the government is not very strong, it can be said that the north of Shuntian Mansion is the most heavily guarded place.
The western part of Suncheonfu is also heavily guarded, but that is because there are mountains in the western suburbs, which is a strategic commanding height, and because of the good scenery of mountains and rivers, it has become a good place for the powerful to live.
Anyway, the inventory at the north gate is the strictest, and it is even stricter at night.
There are no walls in Shuntianfu - the imperial city has a city wall, but the palace city does not, which was picked up by Guangzong after the victory of the Great Patriotic War.
In his words, the capital of Middle-earth does not need city walls, if the enemy can hit Suncheon, unless the royal family is dead, you don't want to enter the city!
Even if the royal family is dead, there are still hundreds of millions of Li Shu in Middle-earth!
Guangzong even wanted to rip off the imperial city, but was desperately stopped by the ministers.
They didn't dare to talk about security, so they said that after the imperial city was stolen, the royal secrets were all under everyone's noses, and they didn't form an individual - let's have an emergency meeting or something, and it was all seen by the enemy's spies, is it appropriate?
It can be seen that Guangzong is really a bit fearless of life and death, no wonder others are worried about calling him "Guangwu Sect".
Shuntianfu does not have a city wall, but there is a city gate, which is a city gate building, and there is not even a gate.
However, ordinary people must go through the city gate to enter the city, and there are private houses next to it, and they can't always pass through the wall to transfer their homes, and occasionally there are private fields, but it is not the same thing to walk through the fields.
Ambeck and his entourage walked through the side gate of the north city and the east side gate.
If there is a routine inspection of the city guard, the city guard is subordinate to the Shuntian military service room.
The soldiers checked and found that the three carriages were occupied by the prince of the crescent moon and several drunken women, as well as a number of camping tents, and they had no interest in scrutinizing, and the foreign prince wanted to go to a field battle, nothing more than that.
Not long after they passed, Li Yongsheng also came, he was alone, except for a small cloth bag, he didn't bring anything, and he went out with a light on the nameplate of Chaoyang Repair Hall.
In fact, most of the time, entering Kyoto is stricter than leaving Beijing, that is, the recent incident at the Don River Reservoir has led to a stricter inspection of leaving Beijing.
The North City Gate is only the first pass, the second pass is the northern suburbs of the city pass, and the third pass is the pass of the northbound roads.
Li Yongsheng felt that he was getting a little closer, so he slowed down a little.
Not long after that, it began to rain, and he looked around and saw that there was no one on the left and right, so he took out an umbrella and held it up.
After a short period of time, he had a bad premonition in his heart, no reason, just an intuition.
He stopped, and then realized that he was already very close to Ambeck, that is, less than two hundred feet, about a mile in a straight line.
In Suncheonfu, such a distance would be embarrassing, but on the road after leaving the city, it was a rainy night, and there were few pedestrians, and after three carriages, there was such a person, although he was not the only one, but he was also very eye-catching.
I didn't notice that these guys were walking more slowly, the carriage was actually slower than walking, Li Yongsheng didn't pay attention to that premonition, and still walked forward step by step according to his own travel speed.
Ambeck looked coldly at the dark street behind him, "It can't go fast when it rains, so stop and set up a tent." ”
Sagul snuggled in his arms, her body was as soft as a lump of mud, and she said arrogantly, "No, I don't want to stop, go to Bolingshire, go to Bolingben Seminary to find Elena......"
"You give me silence!" Ambeck raised his hand and slapped her on the neck, and she fainted.
There were only the two of them in this carriage, and Ambeck coughed lightly, "Bayi, is there a situation in the back?"
"Six pedestrians," a faint voice came from the bottom of the carriage, "the cultivation is not high,"
"Stop," Ambeck said dryly, "rest for the night, as planned...... I'll leave tomorrow morning. ”
Just as they pitched their tents, several pedestrians gradually overtook the carriage and walked off into the distance.
Most of the people who were still in a hurry on this rainy night lived nearby, but Ambeck's entourage did not take it lightly, setting up tents and putting out special guards.
Just as Li Yongsheng approached, the vigilant man narrowed his eyes and muttered to Ambeck in a low voice, "It seems to be someone from the restaurant just now...... The clothes are the same, and so are the cloth bags. ”
Li Yongsheng listened to the root of the wall at the drunken pillow Houhai Restaurant, although there was a beautiful woman cooperating, but Ambeck's guards were not vegetarians, and they also wrote down their clothes and appearance for this person who seemed to be in no danger.
Because the other party is holding an umbrella, he can't see his appearance clearly for a while, but his clothes always look good.
Ambeck hesitated, raised his chin and said in a deep voice, "Stop him!"
Today he actually has something important to do, and it is not appropriate to provoke right and wrong, but pretending not to see someone following him is not his style, if the other party is really suspicious, he does this, but it seems that he is weak-minded.
Anyway, what you do on weekdays and what you do now is the most normal and the least suspicious.
His guards faithfully carried out the order, leaning forward, "Stop...... You've been following this all this way, what's your purpose?"
The umbrella was raised, revealing a handsome face, and the visitor was stunned and asked, "Are you talking to me?"
"Huh?" the guard frowned, how could he be dressed the same but his face looked different?
Just when he was puzzled, he only heard Ambeck shout loudly, "Li Yongsheng?!"
"It turned out to be you," Li Yongsheng laughed, "How dare you ambush me?"
Ambeck was already furious, and when he heard this provocative word, he only felt that his head was buzzing loudly, and he couldn't care about anything, and he forgot that he had important things to do today, so he shouted, "Take this guy...... Don't get killed!"
In addition to the guards blocking the road, two more guards rushed up, and the blades in their hands greeted Li Yongsheng in unison.
Li Yongsheng's body flashed weirdly, shook off the sandwich attack of the three people, and then shook his hand, and more than ten white lights shot out.
This is the talisman "Ten Thousand Flowers Crossbow" given to him by Li Qingming, and the power is not very strong, but there is no problem in breaking through the defense of the system and repair.
However, this time the guards around Ambeck were much stronger than the last time, although they were also repaired, but the Wanhua crossbow hit the other party, and the three of them just shook for a while, obviously not breaking the defense.
At the same time, a faint white glow also flashed on the three of them.
Li Yongsheng was not panicked, after the Wanhua crossbow attacked, his whole body jumped forward, and another white light was shot.
This white mang, however, was a rope, rightly encasing the neck of a guard.
Li Yongsheng carried the end of the rope, turned around and shot away, the force was so great that he broke the neck of the guard.
His rabbit ups and downs are very fast, and ordinary people can't react at all.
"Li Yongsheng!" At this moment, a huge aura rose behind him, and someone gritted his teeth to speak.
"Hold the grass!" Li Yongsheng threw away the rope in his hand, and his body turned strangely, and his speed increased instead of decreasing.
He always felt that something was wrong, but now he knew that the middle-level cultivator who was thrown into the lake by Kong Shujie was actually in the convoy.
He doesn't really care about this cultivator, but the cultivator is above the cultivator, and he is not even a cultivator, in this situation, he doesn't run to have a ghost - even if he gets this cultivator, he has to do it behind his back, and he doesn't plan to wipe out everyone present.
He wanted to run, but Na Si Xiu refused to agree, and a momentum covered him incomprehensibly, and then, out of thin air, a thunderbolt sounded above his head.
"I'm going, exploding the talisman?" Li Yongsheng was struck twice by this thunderbolt, but he accelerated again, and disappeared into the dark and rainy night in the blink of an eye.
"Huh?" The middle-aged Si Xiu couldn't help but sigh lightly, although he made a hasty move, and he only used the talisman, not his own cultivation, but how could this blow be received by a cultivator who was not even a cultivator?
But no matter what, he couldn't let go of Li Yongsheng today, and when he missed a blow, he roared and shot away in the direction where Li Yongsheng disappeared.
Li Yongsheng took such a blow in a hurry, even though he was wary in his heart, but this was a talisman that could make Si Xiu suffer, and the other party's stimulation technique was also extremely sophisticated, and he was still hurt a lot.
After temporarily overdrawing his physical strength, after jumping out of more than 200 zhang, his eyes were dark and he almost fell to the ground.
He lifted his spirits, jumped forward again, and suddenly heard the sound of breaking the air behind him, his eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he reached out to the cloth bag.
But the next moment, his body rushed forward, as if he couldn't hold it anymore.
The middle-aged Si Xiu came with electricity, vaguely saw the direction in which he fell, and continued to jump forward, staggered suddenly, turned around and ran, going faster than he came.
"Still want to run?" a soft snort came from the air.
Immediately afterwards, a dazzling blue light flashed, and the middle-aged Si Xiu was smashed and flew more than twenty feet away.
Fortunately, there was a flash of white light on his body, and it seemed that some protective items were used.
However, the one who shot was unceremoniously, and another blue light flashed, knocking the person into the air again.
After the middle-aged Si Xiu fell down again, a figure appeared beside him like a ghost, raised his big hand, and sprinkled something on him.
Then, the figure stood with his hands behind his back, and three more people jumped over in the distance, tying up the middle-aged Si Xiu on the ground - it turned out that the thing was a big net, and the net person couldn't resist at all.
Ambeck and his party looked at this in amazement, not daring to speak, not daring to run, and the wine they had just drunk turned into a cold sweat.
The attacker turned to look at them and spoke coldly, "The dignified Middle Earth State, with a few of you clowns, you dare to jump off the beam here?"
As soon as he finished speaking, his body flashed and disappeared into the darkness again. (To be continued.) )
