Chapter 208 (1/2)
There are two ways to enter yanjiazhai. One road is only allowed to be used by carts and horses with goods, and the other path is for the daily access of people in the mountain stronghold, ordinary mountain people and businessmen. However, there must be a road guide or someone from the stronghold, and it will be closed after Xu Shi.
The three came to the pedestrian entrance, where the terrain is strange and dangerous. There is a deep and wide gully across from the opposite mountain stronghold, which is connected by a long iron rope and wooden suspension bridge that can hold five people in parallel. At the end, there is a high sentry tower with stronghold guards inside.
We don't know the situation of the main road. Just from here, Yan Jiazhai is definitely an easy place to defend and difficult to attack.
There was still a short time before Xu Shi, and there were sporadic people going in and out. They were not introduced. Wei zhanmei made an unannounced visit and didn't want to reveal the identity of the general banner of Fusi in Nanzhen. Therefore, it seems that we can't get in today. We can only go back to the village to live and think about other ways.
The three men observed behind the boulder at the entrance for a while. Wei zhanmei beat the retreat drum and was about to take the second daughter back. Yan Zi said, ”wait, let me see again.”
Wei zhanmei and Ji Yu didn't know what she meant. After waiting for a while, Yan Zi said, ”maybe you can try.”
”You see, it's getting late, it's almost time to close, and the sentry is slack. Instead of standing at the intersection from time to time, I go up to the hanging building to take shelter from the wind. I get up and look at it every few minutes. I count. The shortest time is 15 breaths, and the interval is longer at other times.”
Wei zhanmei thought she understood what she meant, looked at the length of the suspension bridge and said:
”Ge Ge and I took you to perform lightness skills. Fifteen breath is not enough. We can't get to the opposite side. Even if we run along the unstable suspension bridge alone, if the guard checks in advance, we will be found. It's not safe enough.”
Yan Zi smiled: ”I don't mean that. I think the guards are on duty in one day. There are a lot of people coming and going in the mountains. They won't know and remember everyone's face. So my idea is...”
After hearing Yin Zi's idea, Wei zhanmei looked at her in surprise. In his memory, he didn't think the little girl was so resourceful? Now it's like a different person. It's her idea to make everyone swagger about Yingdu city. It's really impressive to see such a wonderful idea again this time.
Ji Yu also stared at Yan Zi like a monster: ”it's terrible. It's a female Zhuge. Sure enough, the experts are among the people. Since ancient times, British women have produced girls.”
”Zizi, come back to Qingchuan with me later. I had an idea to set up a special task force for women in the army with the female disciples of Daxue mountain as the team to deal with the Jianghu sects in Chaohua. I've decided on the name, which is referred to as the female spy camp for short“
”Let's cooperate with our sisters. I'll be the commander of the women's army. When you become a military division, make sure that women don't let men, and let my brothers lose their teeth. That's it.”
Yan Zi said sheepishly, ”let my sister laugh. In addition to needlework, grandpa also taught me literacy and other strange things. Do you think this idea is OK?”
Wei zhanmei didn't expect that Grandpa watchman, who came out early that night and didn't communicate much, was a hidden city expert. Now it's not time to ask. It's important to sneak into the stronghold first.
The three waited for a while. When it was getting darker and there were no other pedestrians coming in and out, at the time when Xu Shi was coming, Wei zhanmei and Ji Yu held Yan Zi from left to right, flashed out from behind the boulder, quickly stepped onto the suspension bridge, started light body Kung Fu, and rushed forward along the rickety wooden iron cable bridge under the strong mountain wind.
Wei zhanmei and Yin Zi both had good lightness skills. They quickly passed the middle of the suspension bridge with Yin Zi. After running for a few seconds, they stopped at three fifths of the suspension bridge.
The three turned around, walked forward and back, and walked slowly in the coming direction.
Sure enough, as Yan Zi expected, after more than ten steps, behind him came the shouts of the soldiers guarding the bridge stronghold: ”Hey, come back! What about you, the three Backpackers, quick come back, or you'll open your bow and shoot arrows.”
Pretending to be unwilling, the three turned and walked back to the bridge. The stronghold leader waited under the sentry tower with two men with swords and bows, swearing:
”Are you three rats or croakers? Being a man is a decoration? My brothers want to sneak over when they fart and chat? Do you understand the rules? When the time comes, the suspension bridge will be closed and we'll go out tomorrow.”
The three pretended to argue for a few words, but the stronghold soldiers resolutely refused to let go, so they had to sigh and go to the mountain ”disheartened”.
After walking a short distance, they turned to no one behind the tree, and the three clapped their hands. Yan Zi's clever plan succeeded. The three turned around on the bridge, creating the illusion of going out of the mountain. They cheated the guards as they wished, passed through the pass smoothly and entered Zigui mountain Yan Family stronghold.
After entering the mountain, there was no strict inspection and interrogation in the outer stronghold of Yan Jiazhai. The three found an inn to stay.
After dinner, Wei zhanmei and Ji Yu went out of the Inn and changed into night clothes in the hiding place. They were going to explore Yan Jiazhai at night.
This time it was inconvenient to take Yan Zi, who had no strength to bind the chicken, but they also promised her to be careful and come back to discuss if she was heavily guarded.
At night, there were few lights in the mountain. They walked through the dense forest of mountains and stones and soon touched the inner stronghold of Yan Jiazhai.
Wei zhanmei was very cautious. They hid in a nearby place and observed carefully. They found that the defense of the inner stronghold was extremely tight. It didn't look like a retired official family at all, even better than the general Jianghu sect headquarters.
First, there is a fence beside the stockade, which is tall and smooth, not easy to climb, and there is a sharp barbed wire fence.
