Chapter 809

The tree houses in Qianmu district did not start to use the "latch" popular in other parts of Lorant; The special living environment of its own humidity and tree house still makes the wooden doors in the whole Qianzhao area use the "lock" of decades ago; Undoubtedly, the slightly bulky lock has a sufficient sense of security in the hearts of the local people in Qianzhao district - and there is no exception in this wooden house. Similarly, a cast iron lock is used to ensure sufficient security in the room when the owner is away; When the owner comes back to rest, the removed lock is replaced by an 'l' or 'f' bolt in the door.

Of course, although such an 'l' or 'f' type bolt is simple in manufacture and structure, its actual function is quite large. At the very least, when ordinary people want to enter the door from the outside, they basically don't have a good way except breaking in; However, for the figure outside the door at the moment, this simple bolt is too simple.

'l' type latch!

The slender dagger penetrated through the crack of the door and moved it gently and silently. After that, the shadow outside the door has been determined - no less than 100 similar pins have been handled. For the black deacon of the Holy See, only the touch of the dagger and the pin in his hand can determine what kind of pin it is; As for the simplest 'l' type bolt, he can easily catch it.

The slender dagger was firmly 'stuck' to the slender part of the 'l' bolt, and then slowly supported the slender part to rotate in the bolt frame. The black deacon didn't stop rotating until the short and thick part of the 'l' bolt was embedded into the groove for opening the door in the original frame, Instead, he began to use the slender dagger in his hand to slowly move the whole "L" pin backward - the whole process did not make any sound. Even if the short and thick part of the "L" pin was embedded in the original frame, the sound would not have to be much higher than a mosquito flying past.

Click!

In the faint and inaudible sound, the slender part of the 'l' bolt finally completely separated from the bolt hole fixed on the door frame; At that moment, the door was like a prey out of bondage and opened backward - obviously, the door had been deformed in the years of time; If there is no fixed bolt or other things, it will tilt to one side; This is very common for the deacon in black. Most of the doors he once opened were like this. Therefore, the deacon in black grabbed the handle of the door when the door slid back.

This is not the time to open the door!

The black deacon directly stretched the slender dagger into the crack of the door again - this time his action was more gentle, and the scope of the target was not limited to the bolt behind the door; But the three remaining cracks of the main door except the side connected to the door frame.

The black deacon knew very well that he was going to enter a place where mercenaries lived; Although no one will praise the character of a mercenary, a mercenary should be vigilant. Even for the sake of his own life, all mercenaries will abide by it; Therefore, even in such a temporary residence, it is very common to place some small mechanisms as alarms - without the obstruction of the bolt behind the door, although the door is only slightly opened, it is enough to drive the characteristic slender dagger straight in; Obviously, this kind of dagger with extremely thin blade and extremely sharp edge is not used for fighting; Although its sharpness is beyond doubt, its thinness is undoubtedly not supported by toughness. Any normal fight is enough to make this dagger die.

However, such daggers are loved by countless thieves; In addition to the bolt after opening the door, it is very easy to find something hidden behind the door with the help of this dagger; For example, a very thin but tough ox tendon rope, with one end tied to the iron seat of the fixed bolt behind the door and the other end tied to a fragile glass object; The tendon rope and the bolt are arranged in parallel; No doubt, anyone who opens the latch and pushes the door in will definitely hit the tendon rope at one end and drive things such as wine bottles at the other end to fall from a high place.

The night in Qianzhao district is very quiet. Needless to say, the clear sound of broken wine bottle is enough to attract people's attention even if it is a cough or two - the sharpness of the slender dagger has been verified again, almost after being put on the tendon rope and gently ground for a few times, The tendon that was enough to make an adult incapacitated in a bound state was broken.

As the black deacon in all this, he put the slender dagger back into his boots with disdain. At the same time, there was an oil pot with a long mouth in his hand. He dropped a few drops towards the shaft connection between the door and the door frame. After the oil completely invaded the connecting shaft, the black deacon slowly pushed the door in - not the novice black deacon very clear, When approaching success, it is the easiest time to fail; At the very least, he could not forget the harsh sound caused by the rust and friction between the door and the shaft after the success of opening the door for the first time.

Although it was just a novice and beginner's simulation, it does not mean that the black deacon will forget it; On the contrary, he kept it in mind and took it as his secret of success - as the bottom of the inquisition, any failure of a mission will represent death; At the beginning, many colleagues who achieved better results than him have now entered the temple of the Holy Spirit to receive the worship of countless believers. Of course, most of them are dead.

And he doesn't want to enter the temple of the Holy Spirit to receive offerings or directly lose his bones; He hoped that he could be promoted to become a priest or a higher level of existence; This meant that he had to be careful and remember any mistakes he had made - sometimes mistakes were not terrible, and even seemed "cute" to the black deacon; Because remembering these mistakes proves that he is still alive; Instead of tracing the footsteps of his colleagues in the past.

In the room, after the curtains blocked the moonlight, the moonlight printed on the curtains did not make the room bright, but became hazy; If you can, the deacon in black prefers the dark environment - after all, although darkness is frightening, it can protect your safety at some times; Along the hazy shadow, the deacon in black crept towards the only big bed in the room.

His body covered with a blanket fluctuated orderly up and down, and it was obvious that his goal had fallen into a deep sleep; In this regard, the black deacon expressed his joy - a sleeping enemy is always more likable than a sober enemy.

Whoosh!

The deacon in black who rushed to bed immediately pressed the other party, and then pointed it at the back of the other party's neck - usually, there's no trouble at all. It's much safer to stab a poisoned dagger into the other party's body, and this is also his habit; However, thinking of his temporary leader, the deacon in black can only violate his habits.

He quickly tied up the other party with the rope he carried, and then pulled off a sheet and stuffed it into the other party's mouth; Immediately pick up the opposite direction and walk to the door - as for confirming the target? He had already confirmed the moment he knocked the other party unconscious.

Along the edge of the tree house, the black deacon threw the target to his colleagues who let go below, and immediately jumped out of the tree house; After making a gesture with the colleague who caught the target, they quickly drilled into the darkness and ran out of the market - but the two deacons in black didn't find it from beginning to end. In the tree house, a pair of eyes had been watching all this silently; And followed them as they left.

……

Ye Qi followed behind the two deacons in black and watched them quickly announce the fence of the market without disturbing the local guard in Qianzhao district. Without hesitation, he climbed over the fence about 15 feet high - most of which are 12 feet high, which is very conspicuous; The earth slope formed by the bulge of the ground is the main reason why it is higher than other places; It is precisely because of this height that the guard of the local people in Qianzhao area is slightly relaxed.

Compared with here, they are more accustomed to focus on the dense trees or places where important people live; This is human nature - after all, even from Yeqi's point of view, this kind of place is "safe" most of the time because it has no shelter but a "high wall" as a barrier.

If you have a chance, you should remind Toka!

Ye Qi, who had such an idea in his heart, quickened his pace - after leaving the downtown area, the two deacons in black with people on their shoulders immediately accelerated their pace after they lacked the fear of being discovered; Almost without stopping, he reached a place ten kilometers away from the market.

It is also a dense forest, which is basically very common in the thousand marshes area with almost swamps and dense forests. Except for the two figures carrying people, it is almost no different from other dense areas - the black deacon who entered the room walked in front, ignoring the increasingly dense trees and shrubs around, He walked straight to about five yards in front of a swamp, and then knocked on the big tree next to him several times.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

In the continuous beating, there were two distinct sounds. The crisp sound was obviously hollow - the deacon in black again extended his hand to the obviously hollow place, and beat it continuously with great rhythm; As soon as the knock fell, it was immediately replaced by another sound.

Wow... Wow

The originally dense woods moved; In the continuous sound, a road for only one person appeared in front of the two deacons in black; Without hesitation, the two men carried Ye Qi's double, divided into front and back, and walked towards the depths of the dense forest; Ye Qi followed them after they walked into the dense forest. Instead of entering the dense forest path for the first time, ye Qi jumped into the tallest tree beside him. With the height of the tree and his own vision, ye Qi clearly saw the place where the dense forest path finally leads.

Wow... Wow

Ye Qi, who jumped from the tree, looked at the normal dense forest again, immediately walked to the big tree that had moved in his memory, squatted down, stretched out his hand and dug along the root of the big tree; When his hand touched a complete metal pipe whose root should not exist here, ye Qi's mouth tilted - he was sure that his blind fight perception did not find any fluctuations belonging to biology or magic, but the movement of trees in front of him actually happened in front of him; Yeqi naturally has a little doubt about this; However, after putting aside the incredible existence of magic and magic, there is only one left: mechanism.

Facts undoubtedly prove the correctness of Yeqi's guess. Although Yeqi can't understand the principle of mechanism, he can still infer the general operation mode - the earliest big tree that was hollowed out is obviously used as a place to transmit signals; As long as the correct signal is transmitted, another person waiting for the signal will operate the mechanism and open the prepared dense forest path.

It's exquisite!

In the face of this mechanism, Yeqi gave his sincere evaluation - in fact, in the late dark age, mechanism art was also considered to be a kind of magic used by dark wizards, and it was often confused with alchemy; Until the end of the bloody age, due to the gradual desolation of dark wizards, mechanism technology was separated from the "magic system" and mastered by "mortals".

Once again, he jumped onto the thick trunk of a big tree around him. After seeing the end of the dense forest trail, the value of the trail itself undoubtedly decreased to the minimum; Moreover, compared with the dense forest path itself, ye Qi is more inclined to enter from the "air". At least, it will save a lot of trouble - mechanism technology is definitely not a sacred term. Its appearance is also full of blood and soul laments, especially if the church has set up a dense forest path in such a place without some security measures, Yeqi doesn't believe what he says.

If it is a magic trap, Yeqi will never worry. The existence of blind fight perception makes any hidden and exquisite magic trap almost like a joke to him; However, the mechanism based on pure machinery is not in this category. Ye Qi is not arrogant enough to deal with these non fluctuating things with blind perception - although most of the time, mechanism will cooperate with magic, some people firmly believe that independent mechanism is the most perfect; According to his blind perception and exploration of the surrounding fluctuations, Yeqi can be sure that the builders here are firm supporters of independent mechanism technology; Because, in his blind fight perception, there is no fluctuation in the whole dense forest except his double and the original and additional breath of holy light.

In fact, ye Qi's way of entering from the air is undoubtedly correct. With his height, ye Qi can clearly see some preparations in the dense forest - the most common mechanism traps, such as pits and crossbows, are almost as many as five along the way, especially the last one, which is matched with the net bag; Looking at the net bag with a diameter of more than 15 feet hanging on the high tree, Yeqi did not have any malicious guess. The mechanism maker of this dense forest path was probably a hunter; At the very least, their ancestors should have excellent hunters.

The key point of the dense forest path is a cave with a corner down - such a cave is undoubtedly not formed naturally. Even with the uncanny workmanship of nature, it is impossible to create a corner that can just block the fire light of the inner cave; Blessed with high-level invisibility, ye Qi walked directly past the two deacons in black who were guarding next to the cave and simply entered the inner cave of the cave.

Although the two deacons in black stared wide and were on alert, the level gap had already determined everything, especially when there was no special talent. In the inner cave, the deacon in black who had entered the tree house and another member of the Holy See were divided into front and back, standing together; And his double has sobered up at the moment, but the whole person is like a lamb to be slaughtered. His hands and feet are pressed behind his back, and he is so sleepy that he can't move.

"Asshole, who are you? Let go of me quickly, sir!"

Obviously, I remember Yeqi's orders. Yeqi's double perfectly showed everything about a mercenary. He was thrown face down on the ground. He tried to raise his head, took his chin as the fulcrum, and stared at the two people who captured him. There was a lot of dirty words in his mouth, starting from their direct female relatives to their collateral relatives, and then to their male relatives; When the words in his mouth developed directly to the close relationship between himself and the female relatives of the other party, the Vatican officer standing in front of the deacon in black ordered the people behind him: "palm your mouth until the words in his mouth stop!"

Pop! Pop! Pop!

The crisp slap in the face immediately sounded in the cave. At the beginning, it was mixed with one or two dirty words of the double. Later, it was only the rhythmic slap in the face - obviously, the deacon in black respectfully obeyed the words of his boss. After ye Qi's double stopped, he immediately loosened the other party's collar and retreated behind his boss.

Pooh!

Mixed with teeth and blood, ye Qi's double threw him to the ground. He turned over and looked at each other. Although he didn't say a word again, his eyes were still rebellious - and such eyes made the leader of the Holy See slightly unhappy, and then gave a sneer.

"Your performance reminds me of some annoying existence!"
