【Beijing】

On a quiet night, the ancient and familiar alleys are surrounded by alleys, winding and well-connected.

Gao Ning walked for five or six minutes, but still didn't see the wide main road, but walked into many dead ends.

Most of the residents on both sides have yellow mud courtyard walls. The same wooden door is just a little different from the size of the yard.

Looking up at the distance, a huge building group was lying noisy, and the fire was stained every distance, staring at the entire city like the eyes of a giant beast.

Gao Ning suddenly stopped. At the corner of the alley in front, two soldiers in military uniforms walked over with a lantern.

"Brother, it's all my fault for the third brother's bad hands. I don't know how many days I haven't washed it, so I actually gave us some things to patrol the city."

"Okay, okay, what's there to complain about? I'll take a walk at night and go home to sleep during the day. Is it different to receive the salary?"

"But I have agreed with Zhang's mother, and Xiao Yanhong is looking forward to me too... It's so good now, I can't go even if I remember it!"

"I really want to think about it in a mess. I haven't been peaceful lately. Be careful not to meet..."

Before the man finished speaking, he suddenly saw a figure standing in front of him. He was startled on the spot. He drew his knife like a conditioned reflex and shouted loudly: "Who!"

His roar scared his companion next to him so much that he quickly pulled out the knife and acted as if he was charging.

"Five Cities of the Military and Horses? Is it true that it was the Ming Dynasty?"

A calm voice came, and the two soldiers patrolling the night were even more alert: "Who are you? How dare you offend the night?"

One person raised the lantern a little, vaguely illuminating Gao Ning's appearance.

Gao Ning was still wearing a suit and tie, but this time she was wearing black.

Under this hazy fire, it seemed like the whole person was embedded in the darkness, and under his calm face, a strange aura was brought into view.

"Seeing that you are wearing a strange dress, you are not a good person. Don't move, otherwise I will tell you to separate your body and head on the spot if you stab me!"

The two soldiers approached cautiously, surrounded Gao Ning, one on the left and the other on the right.

One person was always alert, and the other person took out the chain from his waist and threw it on Gao Ning's neck.

"Claude!"

Gao Ning's eyes were calm and he called softly. The next moment, Claude flew out of the darkness and kicked the two soldiers out at the same time.

The two of them were wailing in pain, and their bodies were still flying backwards in the air. Claude turned into a wisp of black smoke and appeared in front in advance. He slashed his hands down, just hitting the carotid artery of the two.

The two of them didn't even say a word, but then they fell to the ground and fell into a coma on the spot.

"What are the instructions of the king?"

Claude asked calmly.

Gao Ning also didn't care about the two soldiers and nodded: "Find a place to stay and collect information. What is this place? In which era!"

"yes!"

Claude turned into a wisp of black smoke and disappeared.

Gao Ning walked past the unconscious soldier and continued to move forward slowly.

By the way, since Cloud is a mission reward, he can summon across planes without any impact.

So does the ship girl Lilith, who is also a mission reward, have the same attributes?

Gao Ning's gaze shifted downwards, and he was indeed looking for two icons in the lower right corner.

The black spider representing Claude has shown its use status at this time, while another light blue cube is waiting to be summoned.

"Lilith!"

Gao Ning called out the ship girl's name without hesitation.

The next moment, a tiny black hole suddenly appeared in his sight, and a large number of tiny particles gushed out, shaping a human form in front of Gao Ning at a speed visible to the naked eye. The next moment, the silver-white metal shell collapsed, revealing the tall Lilith.

She was still wearing a black Gothic dress, and the long skirt reached her calves directly. Under a small piece of black stockings, she was wearing a pair of red and black high heels.

"Master!" Lilith greeted with a smile.

“What does the summoning process feel like?”

Gao Ning nodded in his heart. It seemed that all the characters assigned to the skills were not restricted by space, which was good news.

Lilith tilted her little head and thought: "If my memory is not missing, then I was still in Jingyanggang's bedroom last second, and your call suddenly came from my ears. When I came to my senses, you were already standing in front of me!"

Is there no memory of the process of traveling through space?

It's no surprise!

The two were chatting, when a wisp of black smoke suddenly appeared beside them, and instantly turned into Claude's figure.

"The king, it is now the seventh year of the Tianqi period, located in the capital of the Ming Dynasty. Not far ahead is a place called Chunlaiyuan. It is a manor with good conditions. As a temporary place to settle down, it is barely qualified!"

Gao Ning looked at him with a strange expression, and Claude looked calm.

Chunlaiyuan.

Just listening to this name, you know that it is not a serious place, but it is just what I like!

"Then let's go and take a look! Are the supplies you carry with you still there?" Gao Ning turned his head and asked.

Lilith nodded: "It's ready to use!"

"Then prepare some silver and gold to make beans weighing about one hundred grams. The shape should not be too regular, and it will be useful in a while!"

"Understood!"

Under the leadership of Claude, the three of them turned around two alleys and indeed walked into a courtyard with red lanterns.

Although it is only separated by two alleys, this yard is completely different from the yard in the alley just now.

The courtyard wall is very high, more than one meter, with tiles on it, the main door is spacious, and although the two vermilion doors are not as bureaucratic, they also have their own temperament.

Claude stepped forward and knocked on the door. Soon after, the sound of footsteps came from inside.

Gao Ning thought for a while, pointed at himself and his clothes changed rapidly.

"Change your clothes and avoid scaring them!"

Gao Ning's suit quickly changed his style and turned into a scholarly look.

Lilith smiled slightly and a cloak covered her body.

The thin black veil is closed from top to bottom, covering her slim figure tightly.

Claude's expression moved slightly, and the tuxedo on his body suddenly turned into black air. After condensed again, it turned into a piece of armor. The style was somewhat similar to the DingTalk I saw before, but the Chinese language was more refined and more close to the body.

There was a long knife hanging around his waist, and his cold expression seemed to be like that!

"Who? A knock on the door in the middle of the night!"

A crack was opened at the door, and an old man in his forties and fifties stretched out his head in a daze, glanced at the red lantern on the door, and happened to see the long knife around Claude's waist. He immediately slapped and woke up.
