Chapter 154 Only corpses can't speak
"Brother, this is my first time patrolling the city. Is there anything special I should pay attention to?"
"What's there to be careful about? Just go around, go through the process, then find a place to sleep for the night, and go back to get the money during the day."
At night, two shogunate soldiers were patrolling Inazuma Castle, so you are still complaining about this unnecessary behavior.
"Damn it, I don't know what happened recently. They suddenly increased the patrols in the city. Are we going to get any sleep?"
An older shogunate soldier complained, holding a flashlight in his hand and walking forward.
"It's probably because of those wanted criminals. I don't know why the General is so obsessed with them."
Following behind him, a shogunate soldier who had just taken office spoke up.
"Brother, do you have anything to eat? I left in a hurry last night and didn't have time to eat. If possible, can you go to Wuyou Pavilion?"
Hearing this, the shogunate soldier in front almost died of laughter. "Are you sure, buddy? All the shops are closed now, you still want to eat noodles?"
"After 11 o'clock, there are only two types of people who dare to walk on the street, except those who don't want to die."
The soldier took out a steamed bun from his pocket and distributed it to his beloved compatriots.
"One possibility is that we are unlucky enough to have our eyes on the money from patrolling the city."
"What other kind?" The newly appointed soldier took the bun curiously and took a bite. Although it was hard, it finally filled his stomach.
After eating a few bites, the new recruit realized that no one responded to him and looked at his companions in confusion.
At this time, this experienced shogunate soldier was looking at a dark corner with a serious face.
"come out!"
He drew the samurai sword from his waist and slowly walked towards the dark corner.
Under the dim light in his hand, a figure slowly appeared in front of the soldier.
Before the soldier could react, a knife was already placed on the flashlight he handed over.
It was at this moment that the soldier finally understood the man's identity.
"Fools all!"
The soldier took a few steps back in fear, not understanding why his luck was so bad.
"What's wrong, brother?"
Another shogunate soldier asked in confusion, supporting his companion who was about to fall.
"Fools, it's fools, go, go quickly!"
The soldier's voice was full of fear. He pulled his companion's hand hard, wanting to leave this dangerous place as soon as possible.
"The Fatui? Where are they?"
His companion also realized the seriousness of the situation. He quickly took out his samurai sword and looked around vigilantly.
"There, look in that dark corner."
The soldier pointed to the place where the figure appeared, and saw the figure slowly walked out of the dark corner, holding a sharp blade embroidered with lace in his hand.
Without giving the two men time to react, this Fatui teleported behind them at an extremely fast speed.
Quickly knocking the two unconscious, the Fatui member wanted to render them incapable of action before they could give the signal.
But at the moment he was knocked unconscious, an inconspicuous firework slowly flew into the sky and then bloomed with brilliant colors.
"What happened!?"
Pei Lun quickly appeared behind the Fatui and felt that something bad had happened.
In fact, if you look closely at the outfit of this Fatui, you will find that it is a little different. On the shoulder of the debt handler, there is a logo that is unique to Morning Promise.
"Sir, we are probably, it seems, should be, roughly, possibly, perhaps, exposed."
Looking up into the air with some uncertainty, the debt handler suddenly felt a chill on his neck.
"You bastard, you have to mess up at this time. You can even be discovered when you change your clothes. What do you do for a living?"
Pei Lun's anger burned like a raging fire, his eyes were as sharp as copper bells, and his gaze was as sharp as a knife, piercing the debt collector. His words were like the cold wind in the severe winter, biting and piercing, making the debt collector tremble involuntarily.
"Sir, I..." The debt handler wanted to explain, but his voice sounded so weak and powerless under Pei Lun's anger.
"Don't explain. Go back right now and tell Master Chen that the plan has changed and we need to make a new one."
Pei Lun's voice rolled in like thunder, forcing the debt handler to turn around and leave immediately without any hesitation.
"Forget it, it's too late. Notify the people below to act in advance!" Pulling out his signal gun, Pei Lun shot into the sky without hesitation.
After doing all this, Pei Lun shifted his angry gaze to the two people who fell to the ground.
"I'm sorry, but only corpses can't talk."
He took out the samurai sword from his waist and walked towards the two shogunate soldiers step by step.
His movements were swift and decisive, without the slightest hesitation. He chopped off the heads of the two shogunate soldiers one by one, and then threw their bodies into the shadows on the side of the road.
After doing all this, he looked at the gorgeous firework in the sky again.
Then his figure gradually turned into a ray of thunder and flew straight towards the direction of Tianling Fengxing.
......
"Master, there is a group of people outside who have surrounded our entire mansion."
“But they had no intention of coming in, they just surrounded us and wouldn’t let us out.”
"The soldiers outside have already negotiated with them. They said that this was an order from Lord Wu Wang, and that they were here to root out the traitors."
Kneeling in front of Kujo Takayuki in fear, the servant in front of him was sweating profusely in the physical sense.
"What now? Have you tried to break out by force?"
Upon hearing this, Kujo Takayuki suddenly felt cold all over. The traitor seemed to be referring to him!
"We have tried many times, but it didn't work no matter what method we used. Besides, the enemy's weapons are much more advanced than ours."
Kujo Takayuki's face was as gloomy as water, and the anxiety in his heart surged like a tide. He knew very well that this siege was not an ordinary thing.
At this moment, he was accused of being a "traitor", which made him feel that he was surrounded by danger.
"Sir, what should we do?" the servant asked in a trembling voice, his eyes full of fear and helplessness.
Kujo Takayuki was silent for a moment, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes. He knew that at this moment he had to stay calm in order to find a glimmer of hope.
He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Get ready, we will leave through the secret passage."
When the servant heard this, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes. He knew that the Kujo family had a secret escape passage under the mansion, which was also Kujo Takayuki's last hope.
Calling his two sons, Kujo Takayuki brought them to the entrance of his secret passage.
But just when they were about to open it, the door of the secret passage opened by itself.
