Seeing the six people enter the water, those on the shore found a place to hide, ready to help at any time.
This time, it was Tubo who took action, other forces did not participate. If they succeeded, they would not tell other tribes.
They would tell others that they did not succeed and let others try again.
If other tribes really came, how could Zhuangzi, who had lost something, not strengthen their defense?
The six people in the water did not have time to think too much. They could not see the situation under the water, so they could only swim by feeling.
There were stones, clothes, and short weapons in the package, otherwise their bodies would float in the water.
In the afternoon, they swam to see if the weight of the stones could be just right for them to swim without floating.
Even at night, they did not relax their vigilance. They saw people patrolling on the opposite shore during the day, but they could not see them because it was dark.
The stars in the sky were shining, and the water surface was fluctuating, so people could be found.
Of course, they could not swim directly to this place, they had to swim downstream.
It was too high for them to swim to the opposite shore.
There was a canal below, separating Li Family Zhuangzi and Zhang Family Village. There were three bridges over the canal.
They had to go ashore under one of the bridges, walk diagonally, and finally climb over.
About half an hour later, the six people still did not emerge from the water.
They estimated the distance according to the speed of the water and their own swimming speed. After another half an hour, someone quietly poked his head out.
He found that it was about 40 steps to the destination, so he pulled the rope to remind the other five people.
The five people felt the pull of the rope and poked their heads out of the water.
With the help of the lanterns on the bridge, they were almost there. The six people once again poked their heads in.
They controlled their bodies in the water and looked at the lanterns through the water.
As the lanterns got closer, the six people untied the ropes on their bodies and rushed to the shore at the same time.
The water flowed downwards, so they were crossing diagonally.
When they arrived, they happened to be under the bridge.
They did not move, but listened to the footsteps. They had seen the patrolling team of ten people during the day and figured out the pattern.
'Dong dong dong …' Orderly footsteps sounded, and the six people hiding in the dark under the bridge nodded to each other.
The footsteps were getting closer, and they felt the position facing them, then the sound became smaller.
The six people rolled ashore, quickly opened the package, took out the grey clothes inside, and put them on.
With a weapon in hand, he arched his back and ran diagonally upwards.
When they reached a high wall, the two of them squatted down and stood on the shoulders of the other two.
The two people below waited. The person above moved his ankle and the two quickly got up.
When the two of them reached the highest point, the person on top leaped up with all his might. He stretched out his hands and placed his fingers on the edge.
He did a pull-up and stuck his eyes out to look. There was no one around. He flipped his elbow up and supported his upper body up. He put one leg on the side and rolled.
He lay on the ground, motionless.
After a few breaths, he took out a rope from his bosom and slid it down. The person below grabbed the rope and stepped onto the wall.
The people who came up later also took out ropes. This time, two people came up, and two more people came up.
They nodded to each other, signaled each other, and trotted through the darkness ahead.
The last of the six had just hidden in the darkness when the sound of footsteps rang out again.
They lay on the ground, their hearts beating rapidly.
A group of people walked over, and some of them glanced over before turning their heads away.
When this group of people left, the six of them didn't dare to stay any longer and moved forward in the shadows.
When they bypassed two unoccupied bungalows, the six of them looked at each other and signaled to each other. They wanted to catch someone and ask where the destination was.
Suddenly, one of them pointed to the place where the lantern outside was shining. The other five looked over.
They saw the words: Bath area, canteen, workshop area. At the same time, there were arrows.
The six of them: "…"
"Yes, follow the arrows." In the monitoring room, Li Chengqi looked at the six of them and whispered, as if he was afraid that the six of them would hear him.
Li Longji watched from the other side. "Brother Yi's precautionary measures really came in handy. The six of them are quite capable."
"I'm afraid that they will be anxious and catch people blindly. That's why the patrol team only has ten people each. Even if they send twenty people in, they won't dare to do anything to ten people."
Li Yi breathed a sigh of relief. His efforts didn't go to waste.
He wasn't sure if the French would send people, but he thought it was possible.
"Let's go. Follow the arrows. There are still people patrolling ahead. Be careful. Don't make too much noise. Otherwise, they will have to take action."
Li Chengqi was worried about the six of them. You have to stay calm.
The six of them were overjoyed. While secretly cursing Zhuangzi's people for being stupid, they chose a dark place to move forward.
After walking for a while, a sign appeared in front of them again. The sign said: Workshop area, forest frog farm.
The six of them understood and followed the arrows.
Once again, they avoided two patrol teams. Before the six of them had time to curse why there were so many patrol teams, they saw a sign in front of them: Workshop area, vineyard.
They were helpless. We haven't arrived yet. Why is the workshop so deep in the forest?
But then they thought about it. Yes, if it were them, they would also ensure their safety. The deeper they were, the safer it would be.
After a few times, the sign in front of them finally changed. It became bigger.
It said: Carpenter workshop, blacksmith workshop, gunpowder workshop, toilet water workshop, soap workshop … hot air balloon workshop.
Seeing so many workshops, the six of them were envious and wanted to go to all of them.
Fortunately, they understood the purpose of this trip and went directly to the hot air balloon workshop.
This time, they didn't waste too much time and arrived at the hot air balloon workshop.
There were people working here. The sound of people talking and the sound of things being processed were mixed together.
The six of them were dumbfounded again. What should they do? Which of the rooms in front of them could store the blueprint? What if it wasn't stored inside?
Just when they were in trouble, a voice suddenly came from one of the rooms in the workshop.
"Little Qi? Little Qi, where the hell did you go? The blueprint for this new part is drawn. Hurry up and send it to the secret room. "
"Coming, coming. Let's go to the toilet." Another voice sounded.
Then, a man around 18 or 19 years old ran over from the toilet in front.
The man entered the room and came out shortly. He had an extra book in his hand. It seemed to be the blueprint for a new part.
He went around the front. The six of them looked and saw a shadow on the other side. They hurried over.
After entering, they found that it was a small path. They sped up.
After running out, they saw Little Qi opening the door of a room with a key. He unlocked the door and went in. After a while, he came out.
He locked the door and went back the way he came.
Tubo's people continued to look for the shadow. They ran to the back of a row of houses and counted the positions. They saw it.
There was a window here. It was papered over. Looking from the outside, it was very dark inside. There was no light.
One of the six people took out a knife and pried open the window. He reached in through the gap of the window, found the latch, and opened it bit by bit.
The other five people held weapons and were vigilant of the surroundings. There was sweat on their noses.
They pried and pried, and it felt like time was passing very slowly.
"It's done." The person who pried open the window whispered.
As his voice fell, the window was pulled open by him.
One person went up to the windowsill first and went in. The others didn't move.
After a dozen breaths, the person who went in first poked his head out. Only then did the remaining five climb in.
After the window was closed, the six people let out a long breath.
