The two teams of guards exchanged torches at the turret of the high wall, whispered a few words, explained the situation encountered on the wall along the way, and headed towards the high wall on the other side.
The sound coming from the high wall was extremely clear. After the yawning guards walked more than ten steps, Gu Yuan and the four of them climbed up the high wall silently.
The four people quickly climbed up the three-foot-high courtyard wall without making any noise. They paused for a moment and then climbed down the wall. The guards in the corner tower on the courtyard wall did not notice at all that the four figures had climbed in.
inside the wall.
He easily turned over and climbed down the high wall, and the light suddenly dimmed.
Fortunately, everyone has the ability of night vision, so it won't have much impact in this darkness.
Gu Yuan said in a low voice: "Now the enemy is in the open and we are in the dark. The current situation is very beneficial to us. Before Mo Ming is found, don't expose yourself for the time being. Don't use spiritual power if you can!"
Zuo Zhan, Li Cheng, and Little Eagle nodded, with extremely serious expressions on their faces.
The cultivation of Gu Yuan and the others is their biggest support at present. Whether they can rescue Mo Ming or not, success or failure depends on this.
Everyone quickly moved away from the light of the burning torches on the high wall, and there was darkness and silence under the high wall.
"Shh!"
Gu Yuan stopped the little eagle who was about to take action and pointed to the rockery in the corner of the garden.
It was a rockery made up of many strange rocks stacked up, with rugged hills and mountains. The whole rockery was only four feet high and three feet square in size. It was very majestic.
In the middle of this rockery, in a very inconspicuous stone col, there is a secret guard dressed in smart clothes and a black scarf on his head. He is lying there motionless. If you don't look carefully, you will think that this is a long guard.
A strip of stone.
The little eagle was shocked when he saw it. The Su family's villa was too tightly guarded. There were even secret guards here!
The little eagle thought to himself that if Gu Yuan hadn't stopped him, any noise would have alerted the secret guard, and all their efforts would have been wasted.
Little Eagle glanced at Zuo Zhan with an apologetic look. Fortunately, Zuo Zhan didn't notice the movement of Little Eagle. He had already discovered the secret guard and was staring at the secret guard to think of a solution.
Li Cheng raised his hidden sword, and Zuo Zhan shook his head. Everyone did not dare to use spiritual power. The lethality of the hidden sword was limited, and it was difficult to ensure that the secret guard would not make a sound before he died.
This secret guard was lying on the rockery at the edge of this small garden. He had a very wide field of vision, and the diagonal corner of the courtyard was completely surrounded by corridors on both sides of the garden.
If the four of them want to leave here, no matter which direction they continue to move forward, there will be no blind spots and they will not be able to avoid the sight of this secret guard.
What should I do?
The four people had just come down from the wall, but they were hiding in the shadow of the tall tower in the southeast corner. The brighter the torch on the tower was reflected by the bronze mirror, the darker the shadow under the corner became.
In this way, they were not noticed immediately by the secret guard lying on the rockery.
The four of them took stock of the environment in the south garden. The little eagle tugged at the corner of Gu Yuan's clothes and pointed at the branches of a large tabby tree in the yard.
Gu Yuan's eyes lit up, and he realized what he was thinking. Through the gaps between the dense leaves, an old cat with tiger stripes that was almost bald was lying on the branch.
It is said that cats stay in the day and come out at night, and they should dominate the night. But this cat may be very old, his hearing is no longer good, he has eaten too much, and he is sleeping soundly on the branch of a tree.
Zuo Zhan silently pulled out his crossbow machine and looked for an opportunity, while Gu Yuan secretly pulled off a piece of wall from the high wall behind him. The two looked at each other, and Zuo Zhan nodded invisibly.
Gu Yuan nodded his head in the same way, and at the same time stretched out three fingers from his other hand and placed them in his palm one by one.
When the third finger entered the palm of his hand, Gu Yuan threw out the wall in his hand and hit a tabby tree a few steps away. The old cat who was sleeping on the tree suddenly woke up.
The cat's reaction speed was still very fast. The old cat jumped down from the tree with a whoosh, then raised its head and said "ouch".
The moment the secret guard was alerted by the noise made by the old cat and shifted his attention, Zuo Zhan raised his crossbow.
"Whoosh!"
The tip of a crossbow sank into the secret guard's throat.
The crossbow arrow penetrated the secret guard's throat and came out from the back of his neck, tearing his throat completely. Before he was about to die, he could only make a low-pitched sound. Accompanied by the sound of air leakage, the secret guard's hands were weak.
Rocks, trying to throw them hard to show warning.
But he was exhausted and could only struggle for less than three breaths. He kicked off his legs and died completely. His eyes widened before he died. He couldn't understand how he died.
After solving this problem, the four of them confirmed that there were no other guards in the garden. They stayed close to the wall to avoid the sight of the guards upstairs, and quickly rushed towards the low wall of the corridor beside the garden.
But as soon as they walked a dozen steps away, they didn't dare to move any further.
The old cat that had just been frightened to the ground had discovered the four people, and it suddenly howled.
Different from the meowing sound of a normal kitten, its sound is like a howling sound like a wild animal.
Not only did it howl, it also arched its back and stared at the four people as if it were full of fur. This old cat has lived for too long, and it has already understood that Gu Yuan and the four people are uninvited guests. It is like a guard dog, watching over the high ground.
Sound warning.
Unfortunately, no one can understand the cat's voice, and no one knows what the old cat is saying.
The guard on the turret turned the bronze mirror and reflected the firelight upstairs to the old cat's position.
The old cat's eyes were suddenly illuminated by strong light, and he couldn't pay attention to Gu Yuan and the four of them. As if he was even more frightened, he arched his back and burrowed into the vegetation under the rockery with a "ouch", avoiding this group of people.
Dazzling light.
The bronze mirror used by the guards on the turret was a magic weapon. The bronze mirror reflected the light beam composed of firelight. They scanned the yard twice, but found nothing.
The old cat hiding under the rockery screamed a few more times unwillingly.
The guard couldn't understand cat language, and instinctively felt that the old cat was causing all the movements. He turned the light and prepared to look outside the courtyard. His duty was to stare outside the courtyard.
Gu Yuan and the others were relieved and prepared to continue their journey.
But here comes another sudden change.
"Is it over yet?"
At the Moon Gate at the corner of the garden, a stout servant suddenly broke in. She pointed at the guards on the turret and started to curse.
"This dead cat in the garden barks at night, and it only disturbs our sister's rest. If one day the master comes and disturbs the master, even if you have a hundred lives, it won't be enough.
To offend!"
The arrival of this servant woman not only shocked the guards on the turret, Gu Yuan and the other four also frowned. This servant woman was standing at the door. If this woman kept stopping her here and refused to leave, they would
