Chapter 70: Shadow in the Night, Climbing the Wall to Beggar
"Dong!—Dong!Dong!"
Three gongs sounded from the long street, one long and two short, which was exactly the rhythm of the third update.
Yin Zhiping was sitting cross-legged on the cloud bed in the room, practicing breathing and breathing techniques. He could hear the sound of the three updates and suddenly opened his eyes. After finishing his work, he took off the white robe he wore, took off the golden star crown on his head, and then put on a black night clothes.
He opened the window, looked around and saw that everything was pitch black, and there was no trace of a person. Yin Zhiping supported the window with one hand, jumped out of the window lightly, then turned around and closed the window silently, then took a little step and lighted the roof of his house. After looking at the situation next week, he confirmed that no one had noticed it, he used his light skills to go out of Wanshou Temple.
He sneaked out late at night to meet Li Mochou. On Mount Zhongnan, he had already secretly passed the news with Li Mochou. He had decided to go down the mountain with Bai Yuchan after the 15th day of the first lunar month, but Li Mochou went down the mountain to Lin'an as early as the fifth day of the first lunar month. However, the itinerary he had originally planned was delayed again and again, and it was not until now that he had arrived in Lin'an in March.
When he first arrived in Lin'an yesterday, he was quite tired from the journey, so he just rested with peace of mind that night. By the second night, he could no longer bear the longing and wanted to see Li Mochou.
After leaving Wanshou Temple, he stood on a nearby roof and was checking the situation around. Suddenly, he saw a figure passing by quickly from the corner of his eyes. He quickly turned his head and looked at it, but in the northeast direction about a hundred feet away from him, a black figure was also using his light skills to move quickly on the roof. The man's light skills were very clever and agile. His body was like a dragon.
Looking at the direction he was heading straight for the inner palace. Wanshou Temple was not far from the palace. The man had jumped close to the side and was heading towards the palace. Yin Zhiping clearly identified the other party's target.
But seeing that the other party's light skills were no less than him, Yin Zhiping couldn't help but feel curious. What did such a master mean to sneak into the palace? He moved his heart, pondered for a moment, and then quietly followed.
He was wearing a night-mounted dress, and just now he stood quietly on the roof and was almost integrated with the night color. So the man did not notice him. Although the other party's light skills were no less than him, his light skills were not weak at all. In order to prevent the other party from discovering, he also got off the ground and walked in the shadow of the houses on the street, so that the other party had never noticed it at all.
Not long after, the man had arrived under the wall of the palace. The palace was like a city in Lin'an, and the city wall was also very tall. No matter how high the light skills were, he could not jump over. When the man reached the foot of the city wall, he stood against the wall and used the "gecko's wall skills" and climbed up to the top of the city like a big gecko.
The city wall was flat. There was no cover anymore, so Yin Zhiping was not good to follow immediately, otherwise the other party would just look down and look down. He would immediately find him. He was hidden in the canopy of a big willow tree not far from the city wall, looking at the man carefully.
Before, he just glanced at it quickly. Then he used his light skills to follow the street below, only to see the other person flashing. He immediately followed him, without having time to look at the other person carefully. At this time, the man was swimming and climbing on the city wall, but he was just giving him the opportunity to take a closer look.
With his skills at this time, it was no big deal to see things in the dark night. At this time, there were faint starlight shining in the night sky, and there were torches ignited by guardian soldiers on the top of the palace. With these lights, you could see more clearly. However, at this time, the man was using his face to face the wall and using his gecko wall-walking skills, but he could not see his appearance.
Yin Zhiping could only see the other person's back. The most conspicuous thing was that the man had white hair that was quite obvious in the dark. He did not cover his head and face with a cloth towel, nor did he wear a night-like clothes, but was wearing a piece of clothes full of patches and various colors. A light yellow bamboo pole was inserted diagonally behind his waist, and a yellow gourd was hanging on the side of his waist. Look at his outfit, he was clearly an old beggar.
Seeing this image of the old beggar, Yin Zhiping couldn't help but feel moved, and frowned and said to himself, "It's not him?"
While he was suspicious, he was not slow in his hand and picked a willow leaf from the willow branch beside him. Then he used his fingers to bounce the willow leaf out with the "finger-blinking magic" technique, shooting towards the city wall above the left side of the old beggar who had climbed most of the city wall.
The light and unforced willow leaves were like a flying knife made of fine iron, making a sharp roar through the air. Although the sound was sharp, it was not very big. When ordinary people heard it, they felt a sudden sound of wind.
But the old beggar who was climbing the city wall was not an ordinary person. He had been walking in the world for many years, and had experienced countless battles and encountered countless enemies. As soon as the sound of breaking through the air came into his ears, he immediately realized that it was a hidden weapon that broke through the air and shot quickly. He took a deep breath, and suddenly turned his body, changing from facing the city wall to being attached to the city wall, and using the internal force on his back to not let himself fall.
Just as he turned over, he saw a green shadow shooting in front of him. Then a "puff" sounded, shooting on the city wall a little above seven or eight feet away. He turned around and took a look, and then he determined that the hidden weapon was not shooting at him, but not moving, and he didn't even blink. He just saw that the hidden weapon shot into the city wall, but smashed himself into pieces, and at the same time, he made the bricks stir up a ball of dust. In this moment, he had seen clearly that the hidden weapon was a newly picked willow leaf.
Although Yin Zhiping's skill was profound at this time, he was still unable to truly achieve the point where he could hurt the enemy by picking flowers and picking leaves. Although he could shoot out this willow leaf as a hidden weapon, it could also make the sound of a big blow, but it was actually not very lethal. Even if he really hit the human body, it would at most cause ordinary people to hurt. Unless it was very close to him and no more than ten steps away, it might be possible that he could really have some lethality. Now this level and distance, if he really hit the old beggar, he would probably make the old beggar skin itchy at most.
But even so, such skills are enough to look down on the martial arts world today. Therefore, when the old beggar saw clearly that the hidden weapon was just a willow leaf, his face changed and he looked surprised. Then he turned to look at the big willow tree that was shooting towards the willow leaf, relaxed his internal force on his back, kicked his feet on the city wall, and jumped straight down from half of the city wall like a dragon.
The big willow tree that Yin Zhiping hid was not too far from the city wall. It was only about five or six feet long. The old beggar jumped down from half of the city again. This jump came. He jumped to the willow tree, and suddenly laughed and said, "Brother Huang hasn't seen me for many years, but he came to joke with me, Old Beggar!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly slammed the tree with a palm. The palm hit him, as if wind and thunder suddenly burst out of thin air, the momentum was fierce and fierce. Before he could hit him, the strong wind on his palm had rustled the willow leaves and the willow branches swayed. (To be continued...)
