Tibet

Chapter 324
Li Ye led Zhang Ping and a dozen warriors all the way to the northeast on horseback. When they arrived in Fuping County, it was already dark, and Zhang Ping sent one of his men to inquire at the houses on the side of the road.

After a while, the subordinate came back and clasped his fists and said, "General Li, Three Trees Manor is the farm we suspected just now. It used to be called Black Deer Manor, but it was renamed Tiande Manor last year."

Li Ye immediately turned his horse's head and shouted: "Let's go!"

Everyone turned their horses around and followed Li Ye to the south. They passed by a manor just now, and saw three thick trees in the manor from a distance, at least hundreds of years old, but the sign of the manor said it was Tiande Manor, so they couldn't be sure.

Not long after, they returned to the manor with three big trees. It is about thirty miles away from Fuping County, but the manor is not next to the official road, but three miles away from the official road. The three big trees grow tall and tall, and they can be seen at a glance from the official road.

At this time, it was already one o'clock. Li Ye saw that the manor had a high wall, so he didn't go inside immediately. Instead, he found a farmer's house on the other side of the manor, and asked the farmer about the situation in the manor.

"There have always been hundreds of Zhuang Ding in the manor. They were fine before, but in the past few days, they have suddenly stepped up their guard. I heard from the steward that there are many secret sentries in the manor. Let us not run around. If we run around, we will be shot by crossbow arrows. So we can only walk along the road and dare not walk around."

"Why did you suddenly increase your vigilance?"

The farmer shook his head, "I don't know, the manager didn't say anything."

Li Ye asked some more about the specific situation in the manor, and then he came out of the farmer's house.

He immediately said to Zhang Ping: "If there are too many people, you will be spotted by secret sentries. You and your men will guard the outside, especially on the official road. I will sneak in."

"Old Li, can you do it alone?" Zhang Ping worried.

Li Ye grinned and said, "I once killed three hundred elite soldiers by myself. A hundred or ten Zhuang Ding is nothing. I was afraid of scaring the snake and let him run away."

"Well, let's keep an eye on the periphery, so be careful."

Li Ye handed the horse to Zhang Ping, and he climbed up the wall with a knife and halberd, and easily rolled into the manor.

Zhang Ping immediately arranged for his men to monitor at the three peripheral nodes.

Li Ye hid in the dark to observe, and the other party was not professional. He quickly discovered five secret sentries, including two secret sentries hidden on three big trees.

Li Ye was not in a hurry to make a move. He changed positions three times in a row and continued to observe. As a result, he found three more secret sentries. It was basically confirmed that there were a total of eight secret sentries and a patrol team of about 30 people.

But these are only the secret sentries and patrol posts on the periphery. If you are close to those groups of buildings, there must be secret sentries over there.

With such tight defenses, Li Ye can basically be sure that Wu Ying is hiding in the manor.

Knowing the deployment of the secret sentries in the manor, Li Ye decided to sneak in from the south. He only needed to kill one secret sentry and walk along a ravine.

Li Ye took down his bow and arrow, drew out a mace arrow, and drew the bow like a full moon, aiming at the head of a secret whistle eighty steps away.

But at this moment, a rapid alarm bell sounded suddenly from the direction of the east gate, 'Dang!when!when! '

Li Ye froze for a moment, and slowly retracted the fully drawn bow. He looked in the direction of the gate in surprise, what's going on?Could it be that Zhang Ping and his men were discovered?
"Oops!"

Li Ye suddenly cursed secretly, and ran towards several groups of buildings, he couldn't care less about being discovered by the secret whistle.

'when!when!when! '
Two secret whistles spotted him and sounded the alarm.

In fact, there is no difference between the sound of one alarm bell and the sound of two alarm bells. In the silent night, the sound of the alarm bell is particularly harsh.

Wu Ying was indeed hiding in the manor. He was doing fitness exercises with two prostitutes from the county at this time, when he suddenly heard the rapid alarm bell.

Shocked with fright, he kicked the two women off the bed one by one, put on his clothes in a panic, took the emergency package and sword, entered a secret passage, and ran towards the back mountain.

Inside the emergency package were dozens of pieces of silver and a piece of fake copper fish talisman. Of course Wu Ying knew that many people wanted to kill him, but his eyes were blinded by the hatred in his heart. He wanted to kill Li Ye's family members wholeheartedly.

Perhaps because of Suzaku, Wu Ying hated Li Ye from the bottom of his heart, and this time Li Ye caught the female assassin, which directly led to the destruction of the Wu family, the death of his father and brother, and the ruin of his future. He didn't hate An Lushan, nor Yang Guozhong, but concentrated all his hatred on Li Ye, all of which were caused by Li Ye.

This manor was handed down by Wu Ying's grandfather. Wu Ying spent his five to eight years old here. He is very familiar with this place. The secret road leads directly to the back mountain. There are many caves in the back mountain. He knows every cave like the palm of his hand.

The secret passage is actually a passage with walls, with tall walls on both sides, leaving only a gap of one person’s width. In addition, there is a canopy at the top of the wall, so it cannot be seen from the outside that this is a passage with walls.

At this time, the piercing alarm bell woke Wu Ying up from his hatred, and he suddenly realized that so many people wanted to kill him, probably saving his life is more important than revenge at this moment.

Wu Ying ran more than 100 steps in one breath, opened a small door, and rushed directly into the dense forest.
Li Ye rushed into the secret room and met two prostitutes who fled in a panic. Li Ye grabbed a prostitute and asked, "Where did Wu Ying escape?"

The prostitute said in horror: "There is a small door behind the bed, and he got in through the small door."

Li Ye let go of the prostitute and rushed into the secret room. Sure enough, he saw a small door behind the bed. He kicked the door open and rushed in with a knife in his hand.

Inside is a secret passage, the door twenty steps ahead is open, and the light shines into the room, making the secret passage not so dark.

Li Ye searched intently in the secret passage, but found nothing unusual, so he rushed out directly. After rushing out of the secret passage, there was a narrow wall road outside, with more than 100 steps.

He chased it out in one breath, and he had already left the manor. In front of him was a large lush forest, stretching all the way to the top of the mountain.

Li Ye's face turned ashen, and he swung his knife and slashed at a small tree fiercely, 'Crack! 'The little tree was split in two.

When Li Ye returned to the manor, he saw that several groups of buildings were already on fire, and a large group of warriors rushed up the back mountain from another door to search.

At this time, Zhang Ping came over and sighed, "It's the warriors from Qingshan Tower of the Yang family. The leader of the warriors is Yang Jian. They rushed into the manor without knowing how deep they were, and were spotted by the secret whistle on the big tree. I negotiated with them, but they were very arrogant and clamored to kill us together."

"I know this Yang Jian. I have killed many of his subordinates. Does he know I'm here?"

"I told him, and then he ordered to set the fire on fire, and led his men down the mountain to chase after them. There are still a few over there!"

Zhang Ping pointed to the north, and saw two warriors not far from the north looking over here, Li Ye snorted, "Catch them here!"

Zhang Ping's men rushed away, grabbed the two warriors in a moment, and brought them over.

When the two warriors heard about Li Ye's murder in Huining County, they were so frightened that they fell to their knees and begged for mercy.

"We were sent by Yang Xiangguo to kill this Wu Ying. We are afraid that he will take revenge on the Yang family. We have no other intentions. Please spare us!"

Li Ye said coldly: "I won't kill you, but I want to know, where did you get the news that Wu Ying is hiding here!"

"Reporting to the general, Wu Ying has a sister who lives in Changmingfang, Chang'an County. We went to her place last night and asked for news."

"We went too?"

Zhang Ping asked in surprise: "When did you go, is the gate closed?"

"When we went, the door of the workshop had just closed, so we took a ladder to climb over the wall and enter the workshop."

Zhang Ping whispered to Li Ye: "They just went a little later than us."

Li Ye nodded, "I could have caught Wu Ying today, but your recklessness caused Wu Ying to run away. You tell Yang Jian and let him report honestly, otherwise I will tell Yang Xiangguo the truth, so that he can't bear to walk around. Go!"

The two got up and ran away.
