First-rank palace maid Su Jixiang

Chapter 391 Split up

"Why don't you think about where we are? Do you think His Majesty will let us off for what we have done?" Zhang Changping said with red eyes, "Those things we did for His Majesty before, think about our brothers, they did secret things for His Majesty, but in the end, who was able to leave the Dark Guard Camp safely? Who is alive?"

Wei Ling and Su Jixiang looked at each other and realized that these people were from the secret guard camp surrounding His Majesty.

It seems that His Majesty has really high expectations for this place and has even sent people around him here.

"If we can't find it, we will be punished if we go back, and if we do find it, we will be dead!" Zhang Changping continued when he saw that everyone was silent.

"We are all his Majesty's loyal warriors, and we should die for his Majesty!" someone muttered softly.

Zhang Changping laughed, "Who is born to be someone else's death warrior? We have no choice, we are orphans! In the past, if one of us was full, the whole family would not be hungry. What about now? Don't you have a lover in South City? You are living a good life, right? Don't you always say you want to marry her? If she knew your true identity, would she still marry you? But if we have money, it will be different. We can live for our own future! We are people who are not willing to be seen in the light, do you want your descendants to be ashamed as well?"

These words really touched the hearts of these people.

As death warriors, they originally had basically no desires or requests. However, since His Majesty ascended the throne, he rewarded those who used to follow him, and now they are all people of status in the outside world.

With an identity, they also have a certain degree of freedom. They can go out and play when they are not on duty, and some of them find lovers outside.

Who would want to continue living on the edge of a knife if they are already living a comfortable life?

"I found my mother!" Seeing everyone was silent, Zhang Changping suddenly said slowly, "I am not an orphan anymore! I miss my mother, I want to take the money to find her, I want to live a good life with her, I also want to marry and have children, and live an ordinary and prosperous life. We have followed His Majesty through life and death, and we have done him justice! These treasures were left by the past, we have done so many things for their royal family, why can't we take some? Why did we find the treasure for them, but we have to die to keep our mouths shut?"

He spoke with such sincerity that his eyes were filled with tears and his voice was choked with sobs, so everyone felt the same way. After listening to him, everyone felt a pang in their hearts.

"Sir! We can only take a little bit. Even if I die, I will take a little bit to give to my mother! So that she can spend her old age in peace." Seeing that everyone continued to remain silent, Zhang Changping said the next best thing.

Lord Chen looked at the four people around him.

Everyone looked at each other.

After a long while, Master Chen said, "Let's go down and take a look first!"

"Okay! I just found the passage, and it's already full of traps!" Seeing that Lord Chen seemed to be interested, Zhang Changping nodded quickly.

The other two people holding him down finally let go. Zhang Changping rubbed his shoulders, stood up, and said to everyone, "Follow me for a while. I'll see if I can crack all the mechanisms."

Everyone nodded.

"Do you want to find someone to watch here?" someone asked Lord Chen in a low voice.

"In order to prevent the news from leaking out, let's all go down together." Lord Chen said.

Everyone thought about it and nodded in agreement.

After all, this matter is of great importance. If one person leaves the sight of others, he will be suspected of doing something else.

"Then everyone should go in and out together. If we are seen by others, it will be easier to talk to them!" Someone nodded.

Zhang Changping was the first to go down the rope into the water.

Then Lord Chen followed closely behind, and the remaining four people also followed the rope into the water one by one.

Wei Ling and Su Jixiang only breathed a sigh of relief after they all went down.

"There's no one around." Wei Ling listened for a moment, then said to Su Jixiang. "Should we go down and take a look?"

"What do you think?" Su Jixiang and Wei Ling came out from their hiding place in the dark and went to the release pond to look inside.

"The situation below is unclear, so don't try it rashly." Wei Ling said after thinking for a while.

"Since there are release ponds in all three places, I think there may be passages hidden in the other two release ponds." Su Jixiang also pondered for a moment and said, "Why don't we notify Wei Feng and Wei Jing and ask them to go to the release pond in Puji Temple to take a look. We will wait for them here and see what they say."

"It's a good idea." Wei Ling also immediately thought that this was a good idea. At this time, Wei Feng and Wei Wei Jing were also in Puji Temple.

He raised his hand and called out, and a black bird flew down from the tree and landed steadily on Wei Ling's arm.

Wei Ling took out Su Jixiang's charcoal pencil, wrote a note and tied it to the black bird's leg.

Then he made two gurgling sounds from his mouth, and the black bird immediately flapped its wings and flew high.

"I've never seen this bird!" Su Jixiang has lived with Wei Ling for four years, and this is the first time he has seen this kind of communication bird.

"We trained these crows when we were in the mining area," Wei Ling said. "People died in the mining area every day, and there were a lot of crows. We trained some crows in our spare time to deliver messages. Over the years, we have gained some experience. We don't use these birds on weekdays. After all, most people will think it's ominous when they see crows, and will look at them a few more times. But they are very useful at night. These black birds are much smarter than ordinary pigeons. They have never made any mistakes when delivering messages. They are the birds that only our Black Tiger Guards will use."

This is true. Anyone who sees this big black bird in broad daylight would take a second look.

But at night, this black color is their best protective color.

Su Jixiang had heard of people training crows before. Crows are very smart birds with high IQs. Now it seems to be true.

"In less than an incense stick of time, Wei Feng and Wei Jing will receive the news. Let's just wait for these people here." Wei Ling said to Su Jixiang.

This time the two of them found a comfortable place, and Wei Ling took Su Jixiang and flew onto the beam of the bell tower.

From this high ground, one can clearly see the scene inside the release pond. It was dark, and they were wearing night clothes and crawling on the beams, so one could not tell from below that there were people on top.

The water was very calm, and even the rope tied to the pillar was motionless.
