Nie Li went to the place that the three of them had discussed in advance. Today, Cloud Sea City was still the same as usual. People came and went on the streets, as if no one knew about the disappearance of the woman. People were still enjoying the peace in front of them.
Arriving at the center of the city, Nie Li was curious about why the dungeon was placed here. Wouldn't it be too bold to come and go? The door of a mansion opened, and Nie Li saw three people coming out.
The man in the middle was dressed in green and was carrying two wooden boxes. Beside him were two men, one on the left and one on the right. They walked with a majestic gait. At first glance, it looked like the two men were protecting the man in the middle, but there was a hint of coercion in their actions.
The man on the other side also saw Nie Li. Looking at the knife hanging on his waist, his eyes stayed on the knife for a while, but he pretended not to know and turned away.
Although Cloud Sea City was a bit remote, it was also a small coastal city. It was normal to see warriors on the streets. Although they found Nie Li looking at them, they didn't want to make things big.
Nie Li knew at a glance that this was the place that Boss Gao and Old Qi said. These three people were the three people who delivered the food. Nie Li quietly followed the three people and found that the three of them were walking in small alleys, trying to avoid the main roads and long streets.
Remembering these routes, Nie Li didn't continue to follow them. Once he was discovered, the loss would outweigh the gain. At that time, he just needed to kill them on the way back.
"Young hero Nie, the knockout powder is ready." Boss Gao and Old Qi came very quickly. It seemed that the Beggar Clan's power was also very powerful, otherwise, it would be impossible to find the knockout powder in such a short time.
"Well, when I came, I saw three people coming out of the mansion. It seems that it is what you said. In a while, we will ambush them on the way." Nie Li said what he saw.
Then he took the two people to hide in a tree on the side of the road. Although it was winter, the vegetation in Cloud Sea City was lush all year round. Moreover, the vegetation on the side of the road was very dense. There was no problem to hide the three of them.
Climbing up the tree, Nie Li looked down at the mansion. It was very simple inside. There were only a few rooms and nothing else. "Young hero Nie, the room in the middle is the passage to the dungeon. As for the other houses, they are all guarded. " Eldest Brother Gao also climbed up after him, which showed that his martial arts were not bad. As for Old Qi, he was slower.
The mansion was very quiet. If it wasn't for what Boss Gao and Old Qi said, Nie Li would have thought that it had been abandoned for a long time. The three of them were also very patient. They sat on the tree and watched every movement below.
The sun passed overhead, and the afternoon sun shone the shadows of the trees on the ground. A few weak rays of sunlight shone through the branches and leaves on the ground. If someone stopped under the tree and looked carefully, they would be able to see a figure moving in the light.
The appearance of an azure clothed skinny man caught Nie Li's attention. He never thought that this person would come. Zhou Qing walked to the door and knocked on the doorknob. Then, he quickly knocked twice.
A group of people walked out from one of the side rooms. There were at least eight of them, and each of them was wearing a full suit of armor. With such an army, it was no wonder that Boss Gao had said that it would be disastrous for him to barge in.
The soldier opened the door and welcomed Zhou Qing in before closing the door. Then, the eight of them returned to their rooms. Zhou Qing entered the main room, presumably to the dungeon.
Zhou Qing's appearance was unexpected. According to Boss Gao and Old Qi, it was the black-clothed men from the Wang Mansion who kidnapped Chun Mei. But now, it seemed that either Boss Gao and Old Qi were lying, or the black-clothed men were indeed from the Wang Mansion.
Wang Huaili discovered Zhang Junshi's scheme and asked the black-clothed men to kidnap Chun Mei and send her here to lure him out and disrupt Zhang Junshi's plan.
But the ones who told him about this were two beggars. It was impossible for Wang Huaili not to send someone to give him some clues. Then, the black-clothed men deliberately let the two beggars see him kidnap Chun Mei.
Luring him here to disrupt Zhang Junshi's plan. Wang Huaili was indeed a good schemer. He pretended to be a hedonistic son the whole time and stayed out of it. In fact, he had been scheming behind the scenes.
Zhou Qing went in for the time it took for an incense stick to burn before coming out. After coming out of the main room, the group of people came out again. They sent Zhou Qing to the door and then closed it.
Zhou Qing stood at the entrance of the mansion, looked around, and then left. While Zhou Qing was observing, Nie Li, Old Qi, and Boss Gao all held their breaths, worried that Zhou Qing would discover them.
Seeing that there was nothing strange, Zhou Qing left. After he walked to the corner and left, Nie Li and the other two were relieved. However, no one relaxed their vigilance and waited for the target to arrive.
"Nie Li, there are people coming from over there." The three of them didn't know how long they had been waiting. They only felt that the tip of their nose was filled with the fragrance of leaves. When they had forgotten the taste of fresh air, Old Qi said.
Nie Li looked in the direction of his finger and saw that the people who left at noon had come back. However, the three people were not the same group who left at noon. If it weren't for the fact that the road they took was the same as before, with the wooden box in their hands and the same clothes, Nie Li wouldn't have dared to conclude.
Nie Li smiled. Since that was the case, he would carry out the plan.
Nie Li jumped down first and ran quickly on the high wall. According to the previous road, he would ambush in a dark corner. He would let Boss Gao and Old Qi influence the three people while he sneak attacked from behind.
The two of them also left from the other side and prepared a place in advance to set up a defense.
The three of them passed through the dark alley. Even during the day, there was no sunlight in these places. They were wet and cold. They had walked through the alley countless times, but there were two beggars here.
His body was covered with patches, his hair was loose, and there were two porcelain bowls in front of him. He knocked them with a small wooden stick from time to time. "Sir, please take pity on us!" Elder Gao's voice was loud, and he looked very miserable.
The three of them looked at each other. They had walked this road for so long, but they had never seen a beggar here. Looking at the miserable appearance of the two, they also sneered and walked directly past.
"Uncle, please, have pity on us two brothers!" Boss Gao watched the three of them leave directly. He had an idea. He went up and hugged a person's leg, burying his head in crying.
"You." The person whose leg was hugged wanted to pull out the long knife at his waist. Old Qi's eyes were cold. If the knife really went down, he would have to take action.
"Don't waste time on this kind of person. Just give him some money." The person next to him took the man's hand. It was really troublesome to kill a person. It was better to give some money.
"What bad luck." The person who pulled out the knife put away the knife and wanted to reach for the money bag. Old Qi looked and also threw himself at the feet of another person, trying to beg for some money.
"Today is really unlucky." The person who tried to dissuade saw Old Qi at his feet and cursed. He wanted to take out the money bag from his arms. But just as he was about to reach into his pocket, he suddenly felt a gust of cold wind blow past his back.
The three of them all felt a chill on their backs. The temperature of the air seemed to have dropped several degrees. When they looked back, they saw that the flying snow was already in front of them. It was the snow under the setting sun. It was cold and deadly.
For the sake of this attack, Nie Li had been accumulating power in the dark. He'd directly used Drifting Snow. He hadn't held back. In order to not cause too much of a commotion, Nie Li had pursued a fatal strike. Clearly, this strike had succeeded.
The eyes of the three people were full of disbelief. What a fierce snow. The overwhelming power made the three of them feel incomparably small and how fragile their lives were.
The knife flashed. Boss Gao and Old Qi also looked at the knife light in the sky. They had never seen such a terrifying knife technique.
Three heads flew off and rolled on the ground a few times. Their eyes widened as they saw a figure dressed in black. His back was not very imposing, and his blade was as thin as a cicada's wing. There was not a single trace of blood on it.
"Bang!" The wooden box fell directly. The food inside was mixed. The sound of falling also pulled Boss Gao and Old Qi's mind back. They had not come out of the snow.
"Get up, change your clothes." After Nie Li finished speaking, he directly took off his robe and changed into the clothes of the person who delivered the food. He picked up the wooden box on the ground. Although the food inside was scattered, it did not affect him.
Boss Gao and Old Qi also stood up, took off their outer robes, and changed into the clothes of the two guards. Their blades were also hung at their waists. Nie Li could only hide Autumn Rain to one side and put the dagger in his wide sleeves for self-defense.
The three of them walked to the mansion. Nie Li followed Zhou Qing's example. He pressed the door knocker and then knocked twice. Sure enough, neat footsteps came from inside. When the door opened, they were stunned for a moment when they saw Nie Li and the other two.
"Why is it a different person today?" A young general asked. If Nie Li had not used a special signal, they would have killed the three people on the spot.
"The one at noon was not feeling well, so I took his place." Nie Li said according to the situation, but the hand hidden in his wide sleeve was already holding the dagger tightly.
"Why are there bloodstains on your bodies?" The man looked at the three carefully and found that the three of them had different degrees of bloodstains on their bodies. As soon as he said this, the people behind the young general had already revealed their weapons. Boss Gao and Old Qi's hearts thumped. They thought it was bad.
"On the way here, there were two beggars who kept pestering us. I was in a hurry to deliver food to all of you, so I got the guards to kill them. There are some bloodstains on my body." Nie Li calmly said.
"So it's like this! This group of beggars is really annoying. After a while, we will have a good bloodbath in the Beggar Sect. "The young general obviously believed Nie Li's words and cursed the beggars.
"Sirs, it's better to get rid of this kind of people as soon as possible." Nie Li did not care about Boss Gao and Old Qi's feelings. Now he could only follow the other party to eliminate the suspicion. He did not need to guess to know that the two behind him must have cursed him.
"Come in!" The young general made way, and Nie Li took the lead in striding in. Boss Gao and Old Qi could only follow. This road had been chosen, and it was about to end.
"Leave a meal, you can go in!" The young general locked the door and then said.
"Sirs, we were pestered by the stinky beggars just now, and the food was scattered. I hope you can forgive us." Nie Li took out a layer of wooden boxes, with a respectful attitude.
"Go in!" The young general grabbed the food and then led people into the house. Nie Li and the other two exchanged glances. The other party had taken the bait.
Pushing the door open, there was nothing in a spacious room, only a staircase leading to the underground. This was probably the destination of this trip.
