Chapter 170 Breaking into the City Lord's Mansion at Night (Part [-])
Lancheng was extremely quiet at night, the whole city was shrouded in the light of the moon, bringing with it a sense of loneliness that never existed during the day.

A dog barking faintly came from the alley. It seemed that someone was disturbed and turned over in a dream, changing the position of his numb and stiff limbs.

There were two black shadows by the wall, taking advantage of the darkness of night, they moved quietly and quickly, climbed over the wall and fell into the city lord's mansion.

These two shadows are exactly Ning Zhao and Chu Yu.

Both of them were dressed in black clothes, black pants, black shoes and black masks, only revealing a pair of big clear eyes.

Ning Zhao tiptoed and glanced in through the half-open window, the room was quiet, only the sound of even breathing could be heard.It seems that Mrs. Xu has already fallen asleep and went to meet Zhou Gong.

"Master..." Senior Sister.

Chu Yu suddenly opened his lips behind him, and Ning Zhao quickly turned around, put his index finger in front of his lips, and shushed him.

She blinked her eyes twice frantically, trying to hint at Chu Yu with her eyes.

Cub, didn't we discuss it before we went out, try to talk less and do more, what if we wake them up.

But Chu Yu didn't seem to see her eyes.In the dim moonlight, there was a clear stupidity in his wet eyes, and he looked dazed, without any other emotion.

Um?
Ning Zhao stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Chu Yu, he finally came back to his senses, lowered his eyes slightly, and looked at Ning Zhao quietly.

Unable to speak, Chu Yu suddenly stretched out his hand, gently grabbed Ning Zhao's hand, and wrote down what he wanted to say stroke by stroke in the palm of her hand under the bright moonlight.

It seems... there is... someone else?

The warm touch still remained in the palm of his hand, Ning Zhao suddenly held his breath, and looked into the room from the window.

The room was still empty and quiet. It seemed that Mrs. Xu was alone, and nothing unusual could be seen.

However, even if there are other people, they still have to go in to find Zhenshanyu's whereabouts. They still don't know what Xu Mingchao and Ye Tianhe are trying to do.

She took a deep breath, lightly tugged on Chu Yu's sleeve behind her, and softly rolled into the room through the window.

Chu Yu turned over and fell into the room in the same posture.

All went well, the moon was hidden behind the clouds, and the room was getting darker and darker.

The leaves outside the window were blown by the wind and crackled.

Ning Zhao was afraid of waking Mrs. Xu, and did not dare to use the Fire Control Art, so he could only grope forward in the dark to find the jewelry and jade on the dressing table.

It's just that when she tentatively reached out to the dressing table, she touched a cold, thick-knuckle hand that didn't belong to her.

It's a man's hand!

Ning Zhao swallowed, and withdrew his hand abruptly, and took two steps back, but accidentally bumped into Chu Yu's arms behind him.

"careful!"

Chu Yu hugged Ning Zhao, lowered her head almost close to her ear, and whispered a reminder in a low voice.

Ning Zhao:! ! !
What just... just touched her ear!
Before she had time to think about it, she saw a small ball of fire suddenly appearing in front of her. Behind the fire was a bronze-colored hand with small scars.

Ning Zhao raised his head, and nervously followed the hand to look at the man's face, with bronzed skin, strong facial features, and eyebrows flying into the temples.A thin lip was slightly parted, and those gray-blue eyes added a bit of color to its delicate features.

It was Xu Mingchao!
Consistent with Ning Zhao's conjecture, she silently breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Ning Zhao and Chu Yu wore masks on their faces, they still showed a pair of eyes. Moreover, their figures were extremely familiar. Even in the dim light, Xu Mingchao recognized them at a glance.

He shook his head, turned sideways and pointed to the dressing table, then pointed to the sack on his shoulder, without speaking.

Ning Zhao looked up at the sack on his shoulder, and couldn't help being taken aback.

This sack... it's bulging, Xu Mingchao, you're really welcome.

Xu Mingchao crossed his hands again, and swayed twice in front of his chest, indicating that all the jewelry and jade on the dressing table had been taken into his pocket, so he didn't need to fumble any more.

The three exchanged a brief look with their eyes, and turned out of the open window one by one.

After leaving the room, Xu Mingchao kept walking.He was carrying a sack full of jewelry and jade, and he didn't know if the soles of his feet were oiled or he didn't want to share information with Ning Zhao Chuyu, so his legs kicked fast.In a few breaths, he had turned over and sat on the wall.

This guy, shouldn't he want to yo-yo himself?

Ning Zhao didn't care whether the loud noise would wake up everyone in the City Lord's Mansion, so she quickly pulled Chu Yu and chased after Xu Mingchao.

……

"So, why are you sitting on the roof?"

A bright moon hangs high in the sky. This is an abandoned temple with few people inhabited. On the high roof, there are three figures of different heights.The images of these three people have been discussed, all wearing black clothes, black pants and black shoes.

Ning Zhao looked at Xu Mingchao, who moved slowly and was unwilling to put down the sack, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

"..."

"Why did you go to the City Lord's Mansion?"

Xu Mingchao chose to remain silent on Ning Zhao's question. He hesitated for a moment, then asked back and changed the subject.

Judging by his actions, it seemed that he didn't want to run away.

Ning Zhao yawned and said doubtfully, "Look for Zhenshan Yu."

"Didn't you go to the City Lord's Mansion to find Zhenshanyu?"

Originally, the second sentence was in a strange tone, but he didn't know whether it was her tone that was too sincere or Xu Mingchao's stupid head, but he didn't recognize the strange tone at all, but nodded, embarrassingly echoed: "Yes."

"Is it the order of Venerable Lingyue?"

The rival in love should have been extremely jealous when they met.

However, Xu Mingchao did not recognize that the "little lotus girl" in front of him was his fellow junior sister Ning Zhao, and in his eyes, he just felt that Chu Yu had found a substitute.

Xu Mingchao shook his head quickly, cleared his throat, and said against his will: "No, Master didn't order it."

"Brother Chu, did Master Linghui explain anything before going down the mountain?"

The atmosphere suddenly became silent.

Ning Zhao glanced at Chu Yu, who had a cold expression, and thought to himself, Xu Mingchao, that you are really good at finding topics.Brothers from the same sect, it is impossible for you not to know that Zai has quit the sect, right?That's not the way to chat.

Xu Mingchao realized later that he had asked a stupid question.

He pressed his brows together, took off the sack from his shoulders, and put it on the roof. He didn't speak, and rummaged through one by one.

Ning Zhao watched him pull out a bracelet, two bracelets, three bracelets...

Then there is a pile of pearl hairpins made of gold and silver jewelry, and a pile of earrings and necklaces.

Over and over again, the things are almost the same, with only minor differences.

Xu Mingchao took every item in his hand, looked at it carefully under the moonlight, and threw the last one into the empty sack that he took out at an unknown time.

The sack full of jade jewellery, which was originally bulging, was empty, but the empty sack bulged.

"how?"

"No……"
