C4 (2/2)
When Murong Feng heard Zhang Linxuan's words, he immediately became spirited. He excitedly said, ”I know of a place that definitely has good wine and beautiful women! Beautiful wine and beautiful women, it really is a perfect match! ” As he spoke, he rubbed his hands together in excitement. As he saw Zhang Lin Xuan still standing there without moving, his anger flared up and he used his fan to prod him. He grit his teeth and said, ”Let's go, you're just like a log that's not moving at all. Why would I become sworn brothers with you!”
After he finished speaking, he used the movement technique and floated a few dozen feet away. As Zhang Lin Xuan saw Lin Ming's shadow closely follow behind him, he shouted out, ”Brother Murong, I've come to find you this time because I have something to ask you!” Murong Feng said from a distance: ”If you have anything to say, then drink it first!” Then, he could hear him grumbling, ”Hey, why is it so slow?!”
Murong Feng, the nickname given by the martial arts people was ”Flying Leopard Cat”! This nickname was not for nothing. His lightness skills were first-rate. In the martial arts world, those who were faster than him were not more than one palm. That day when he was sparring with He Daoqing, the eldest disciple of the Karakorum Clan, he didn't even touch the hem of his clothes. Afterwards, He Daoqing was punished by the Sect Leader at the back of the mountain for three years before being released by the Sect Leader of the Kunlun Sect. Hearing that He Daqing was searching for his opponent, he decided to compete with Murong Feng again.
Zhang Lin Xuan struggled to catch up to Murong Feng. Finally, he was able to see him in the time it took to make a cup of tea. Zhang Lin Xuan panted as he approached. Murong Feng looked at him with disdain. He pointed with his fan and asked, ”Brother Zhang, what do you think of this place?”
Zhang Linxuan looked up and saw that the sign had the words ”East Flowers Sect” written on it. Guards with heavy armors were standing at the door, with patrolling soldiers passing by from time to time.
At this moment, Zhang Lin Xuan came to a realization: Oh, so this drunkard wanted to go to the Imperial Palace to secretly drink some wine.
Then, as if nothing had happened, he said, ”Great! But I don't care if someone gets drunk, I'll definitely slip away first! ”
Murong Feng said, ”Don't worry, you won't be able to catch me with these rice bags filled with wine! Cut the crap, why don't we go up?! ”
With that, he leapt up onto the city wall. Zhang Linxuan smiled and shook his head before following him up the city wall.
The two of them landed on a fake mountain. Zhang Lin Xuan was about to ask how he knew where the wine cellar was when Murong Feng pulled him to a corner and gestured for him to keep his mouth shut. A group of soldiers marched past them in a neat formation.
After the soldiers had left, Murong Feng stood up and walked out. He looked around and beckoned to Zhang Lin Xuan. Zhang Lin Xuan hastily went up to greet him. Murong Feng whispered to him, ”Just follow me!”
They tiptoed across a long bridge. When they were about to reach the end of the bridge, they suddenly heard the sound of a woman's voice. Murong Feng hurriedly pointed to Zhang Lin Xuan under the bridge, and Zhang Lin Xuan nodded his head.
At this moment, two ladies dressed like palace maids walked over. One of them was carrying a lantern while the other was carrying a tray with a few dishes and a bottle of wine as he walked towards Zhang Linxuan and the others.
The two of them hurriedly jumped under the bridge.
The sound of the two palace maids stepping on the deck was exceptionally distinct in this silent night. A palace maid said softly, ”When I saw Imperial Physician Wang taking the empress's pulse, my face was filled with terror. Did His Majesty ask if the empress's illness could be cured? He said that unless he could find a medical book that was rumored to be from Jiang Hu, even Hua Tuo would not be able to do anything about it! ” He then heard another palace maid laugh, ”If Hua Tuo can't do it, then let's find a small magpie!” The first palace maid to speak said: ”You are right, you are looking for this ! ”So the Emperor sent them.”
As the two ladies crossed the bridge, their voices became indistinct. Murong Feng wanted to get up and chase after the two palace maids so that he could find out who the emperor had sent to search for the . Murong Feng patted him and scolded softly, ”Wood, what are you thinking about?!”
Zhang Linxuan snapped out of his daze and said, ”It's nothing, I was distracted!”
After the two of them returned to the surface of the bridge, Murong Feng brought Zhang Lin Xuan and stealthily made their way to the inner palace.
