Chapter 0227 Night Exploration Villa

Li Zhen and his men returned to the temporary station of Baishui Town. As soon as he entered the door, Zhao Qiuniang quickly stepped forward and whispered to Li Zhen: "We encountered Wu Furong's people on Shangqing Tower. We went one step late, four died, and Xie Daogu was also seriously injured."

Li Zhen did not enter the county town and did not know what happened in the county town. He was shocked and asked anxiously: "Where is she now?"

"Hearing in the backyard, her life has been saved and she is not seriously injured."

Li Zhen breathed a sigh of relief and walked quickly to the back house. When he walked into the ward, he saw Di Yan sitting in front of a bed, with Taoist nun Xie Ying lying on the bed, with pale face and looking very injured. On the bedside of the screen not far away, a Shangqinglou warrior was lying on the bedside on the left side of the screen. He was fine, but he was slightly injured, but another surviving warrior was unable to treat due to his serious injuries.

Li Zhen walked forward, Di Yan quickly stood up, waved her hand and whispered: "She just fell asleep."

Li Zhen looked down at Xie Ying, turned around and walked outside. Di Yan followed him and said to Li Zhen with a smile: "Although Qinglou suffered heavy casualties tonight, Wu Furong was also severely injured. We lost twelve of us, and Wu Furong was also cut off one of my ears."

"You might as well kill her," Li Zhen shook his head and smiled.

"What, do you sympathize with her?" Di Yan glared at Li Zhen fiercely.

"What do I sympathize with her? She is a woman. Having a cut off one ear is equivalent to being disfigured. I just worry that she won't let you go."

"I'm still afraid of her?"

Di Yan sneered, "If I hadn't considered the consequences today, I would have killed her with one sword. Sooner or later, this bitch would have died at my hands."

Li Zhen was thinking that Wu Furong's people were severely injured. In this way, Wu Furong is likely to withdraw from the Fangzhou dispute, which is a good thing. He thought about it and smiled at Di Yan, "I am going to Longling Villa now. Are you going with me?"

"Now?" Di Yan looked at Ye Se in shock.

Zhao Qiuniang also stepped forward and advised: "There is murderous outside, so it is best not to go out at night. It is not too late for the commander to visit again tomorrow."

Li Zhen shook his head and smiled, "I'm not visiting them, I want to go and spy on the night to explore the movements of Longling Villa."

"How about I bring someone there"

"I'd better go by myself and bring a few more masters. I have the token of Princess Wei, and it's okay if I'm found out."

Di Yan also became eager. It turned out that she was going to explore the villa. Of course she was willing to go. She quickly smiled and said, "I can't do this kind of thing, I'll go with you."

"Carry it out and we'll leave right away."

Longling Villa is located in the southwest of Fangling County, not far from Baishui Town. It is named after a slender mountain called Longling. The villa is also narrow and long. It is the largest villa in Fangzhou. It covers an area of ​​more than 100 hectares and belongs to a giant merchant in the Jia family, but in fact it is the industry of the Wei family.

The Wei family is a prominent family in Chang'an. It has a history of thousands of years and has a huge reputation in the Guanzhong area. It is precisely because of this that Wu Zetian chose a legitimate daughter from the Wei family as her daughter-in-law. Although Princess Wei was demoted to Fangzhou with her husband, the Wei family did not sink into it. On the contrary, their power also developed to Fangzhou.

Longling Villa is the foundation of the Wei family in Fangzhou. There are large farmland and forests stretching for dozens of miles at the foot of the mountain. There are dozens of buildings in the villa, but the gate of the villa has been closed for many years and few people have entered it, which makes the villa covered with a mysterious color.

It was already three o'clock in the night and it was foggy. The gray fog of early spring enveloped the vast fields and woods. The sky was low and the thick dark clouds made the vision particularly blurred.

Li Zhen and Di Yan took three agile inner guard warriors through the dense forest and came outside the high walls of the villa. On the other side of the forest, Zhao Qiuniang was leading nearly twenty inner guard warriors to pick them up.

Although Princess Wei promised to temporarily hand over the command of the Wei warriors to Li Zhen, Li Zhen was not very relieved. Princess Wei understood the overall situation and knew that the situation was unfavorable, but her two nephews might not know that if they violated the evil spirit and ruined the big thing, they would also implicate him. So Li Zhen decided to first investigate the details of the villa. How many warriors are hidden in the villa?

On the other hand, he also needs to give the Wei brothers a warning.

Li Zhen waved his hand gently, and Di Yan and the three warriors stopped. Li Zhen pointed to a warrior at the top of the big tree. The warrior understood and quickly climbed up the big tree, hid in the thick branches, observing the movements around him.

After a while, the warrior imitated Ye Owl and shouted twice, indicating that nothing abnormal was happening. Li Zhen immediately took out the bow and arrow, put on a long arrow with a thin rope, aimed at a wooden pillar on the wall on the side and shot it out. The arrow bounced on the wooden pillar and fell from the other side. Li Zhen tied the rope to the thin rope, pulled the thin rope on the arrow, and walked the rope around the wooden pillar on the top.

At this time, Di Yan rushed forward, grabbed the rope and leaped over, and quickly climbed up the high wall with the help of the rope. In just a moment, a black mastiff pounced on this side, making a low sound like a beast. Di Yan quickly took out a short sword and threw it hard. Without waiting for the mastiff to scream, it had been inserted into the head by the short sword and died on the ground.

Di Yan breathed a sigh of relief and waved her hand to Li Zhen. Li Zhen also quickly climbed up the high wall. Two other warriors followed Li Zhen up the wall. At this time, Di Yan had jumped off the wall and sneaked into the villa. Li Zhen was worried that she had made mistakes, so he ordered the two warriors to jump off the high wall and followed closely.

The villa was planted with big trees, giving them a hidden place. At this time, a group of patrol servants walked in the distance. Li Zhen rushed to search for Di Yan, but heard Di Yan's voice coming from above his head, "Come up."

When he looked up, he saw Di Yan was already hiding in a big tree. He hurriedly jumped up and squatted behind her. He couldn't help but reach out and put his hand around her slender waist.

At this time, several patrol servants walked past the big tree. Di Yan didn't dare to struggle, but she felt very angry. This guy was taking advantage of her. She bit her lip lightly, turned up her slender nails, and pinched it into his arm.

Li Zhen was in pain, but he didn't dare to say anything. When the servants walked away, he smiled and said in a low voice: "I'm afraid you will fall off the tree--"

"A slick guy."

Di Yan cursed him, but easily opened his nails, patted his hands, and whispered: "Not now, don't miss it."

Li Zhen was overjoyed. If it doesn't work now, can it be enough to go back? He let go of Di Yan's waist, Di Yan glared at him, and said angrily: "It's not okay to go back, don't think too much."

Li Zhen smiled bitterly and turned to look into the villa. He saw a large area of ​​buildings distributed in the villa. On the right is a flat training ground, covering an area of ​​hundreds of acres. Through the faint white fog, you can vaguely see several rows of long houses on the other side of the training ground, which looks like a military camp.

But at this moment, a fierce barking of dogs suddenly came from a distance, and someone shouted: "Someone has sneaked into the villa."

Li Zhen was surprised. Have they been discovered? Another thought, the wrong shouting came from at least a hundred steps away, and his two subordinates were on the other side, so it was impossible for him to run there.

Di Yan also whispered: "There are other people who sneaked into the villa. Are we going to evacuate?"

Li Zhen nodded, and the two jumped off the tree and ran towards the high wall, but only ran for more than a dozen steps. Suddenly, a servant suddenly appeared in front of him, holding a long sword in his hand, and was also rushing towards this side.

Li Zhen and Di Yan couldn't hold back their feet and happened to meet the servant. The servant was stunned and instinctively shouted: "Come here--"

Without shouting out the words behind, Li Zhen jumped up and overturned him to the ground. He grabbed the long sword from his hand and knocked him hard on his head with the hilt. The servant fainted immediately.

"Go away, someone is here"

Di Yan found that several people were running towards this place with torches in the distance. She quickly pushed Li Zhen. Li Zhen carried the servants on his shoulders, picked up the long sword, and followed Di Yan to quickly run towards the high wall. At this time, two subordinates responded, and one subordinate said, "Commander, several black shadows also climbed over the wall just now."

Li Zhen nodded and handed over the fainted servant to them, "Take this person out and we will withdraw immediately."

Everyone quickly climbed over the high wall with the help of ropes and called on the soldiers who were watching from the tall trees outside. The five people rushed into the woods quickly and disappeared into the thick fog.

The villa was already in chaos. More than 100 warriors, led by the brothers Wei Bo and Wei Song, held torches and searched the people who broke into the villa. However, they only found the body of a man in black by the wall. The man was bitten by the mastiff and could not escape. He had a poisonous arrow inserted in front of his chest. It seemed that he had been silenced by his companions.

A warrior came forward to report: "Report to the two young men, this man only brought a long sword and had no items on his body."

The Wei brothers looked at each other and both showed concern. Their hiding villa had been exposed. At this time, two more warriors came to report: "Young Master, you have also found traces of someone sneaking in a hundred steps away. One of our brothers is missing."

The Wei brothers immediately realized that the problem was serious. If the missing subordinates confessed, wouldn’t their details be leaked? Wei Bo was anxious and said viciously: “Are you missing or hidden? Check it out immediately”

Li Zhen has returned to the temporary station of Baishui Town. It is almost the fourth update. Di Yan can't resist her sleepiness and goes to bed first. Li Zhen is paced back and forth in the room, waiting for the interrogation result.

He saw the Wei family's warrior base tonight, but what worries him was that others had discovered the secret of the Wei family, complicating the situation. Who would those people in black tonight be? The suspicion of Lai Junchen and Wu Furong can be ruled out. Lai Junchen doesn't care about the Wei family's warriors for the time being. Wu Furong suffered a severe blow. Could it be Wu Sansi's person?

Intuition told Li Zhen that it was very likely that it was Wu Sansi, because Wu Sansi had been monitoring Li Xian. If he had not obtained certain evidence, he would not dare to report to Wu Zetian.

At this time, Zhao Qiuniang hurriedly walked into the door and bowed to Li Zhen, "Report to the commander, the interrogation has ended."

"What do you mean?" Li Zhen turned around and asked.

"Longling Villa is indeed the secret stronghold of the Wei family in Fangzhou. There are 300 warriors stationed in it, and more than 80% of them are locals."

Sure enough, I guessed it by myself. More than 80% of them were locals. How many people were recruited from the victims? Or was the people recruited from the victims not among them? Li Zhen pondered for a moment and asked again: "What else did you explain?"

"And they were already preparing to leave Fangzhou and go to Hanzhong yesterday, but they turned around and returned shortly after leaving. He didn't know the specific reason."

"There are only three hundred people in total, or are there far more than three hundred people. The current 300 people are just one of them?" Li Zhen asked again.

"There should be only three hundred people in total."

"I see"

Li Zhen nodded and smiled, "Everyone has worked hard today. Please let the brothers go and rest. We will officially visit the villa tomorrow."

"Does the commander have to wait for Li Chongrun to come first? Don't you want the gold medal in his hand?"
