A Pair of Eclipse Swords
Chapter : 117 – Geger in White Silk City
On the information provided by the writer as well, Sung Han came to know where Chang Song Zhu's daughter was currently. The author said that they had departed from the village closest to the Heaven's Wall Mountains. The village is a little west.
The day she asked that was three days ago, then perhaps once the current daughter of Chang Song Zhu had already traveled quite a distance. So he headed to the city of Talas and continued north towards the king's city following the flow of the Crocodile river.
For days he traveled and the government troops were not yet visible. The princess pick-up squad, it should be clear because it must not be a small army.
Why would Sung Han look for the princess? This is caused by two things.
First was he worried lest the rebels dare to make a fuss by blocking the princess's path. He wanted to see and make sure for himself that the troops were indeed subordinates of prince Chang Song Ci.
The second is about the Midnight Wolf. Do not rule out the possibility if they make a movement, considering their name that is on the rise, this time the princess is the target.
Later that day, he reached a small town still on the banks of the Crocodile River. The city he knew was named the White Silk City. A small town located closest to the city of Emerald, the city of the imperial king Chang. Supposedly, only a few hours, at most half a day from the White Silk city then it would reach the Emerald city.
Upon Sung Han's arrival there, he saw a long line at the gate. What made her forehead wrinkled was, they were queuing in a state of concussion. The gatekeepers also snapped back to drive them away.
I don't know what this means but none of the mediators are friendly-faced. They look angry and unhappy. The curious Sung Han hurriedly walked to the front row regardless of the line.
"What the fuck? Yesterday we were able to go in and out freely, why is it now forbidden?" snapped the middle-aged man beside him was a woman of the same age. The husband and wife were probably vegetable traders.
The gatekeeper with a tired and tired face, but also irritated, snapped, "What are our repeated explanations that are not enough to make you understand? There was a commotion in the city, it was for everyone's sake!!"
"What commotion!?"
"That's our secret, outsiders shouldn't know!!"
The two people were still arguing and arguing, Sung Han had already heard some of it and he left immediately. This young man had already deduced his outline, it was likely that in this city something very serious was happening to the point of keeping it a secret from the people themselves.
He walked to a quiet place behind shrubs and trees. After looking to the right and left to make sure there was not a single person, Sung Han leapt quickly up the tree next to him that was up to fifteen meters tall. Upon arrival at the peak, he hid behind a leafy leaf to disguise himself so as not to be seen by the wall guards.
"Sleep for a while." murmured this young man and reached for a small twig. Then with a movement of his wrist, the twig shot out quickly against the guard of the wall and made him faint instantly.
Seeing this and after making sure it was safe once again, he jumped onto the city wall. Then quickly jump down and sneak in the shadows of the building. Afterwards he walked through the small alleys on the sidelines of the city building. When he had arrived at the slightly to mid section of the city, he exited the alley and acted as if nothing had happened.
"What's really going on?" he murmured still with a feeling of confusion. No exception to the citizens.
Seen there the soldiers who ran back and forth not because of. Some people ride horses and some run. But it was clear from their attitude that these soldiers were looking for something.
Two dozen men in front of each other met, each headed by an equestrian officer. As soon as they met, the two mounted officers greeted each other.
"How's it going there? Any signs?"
Another officer shook his head weakly, "Nothing at all."
"Alright, you go the other way, I'll face the general to report this."
The two armies then separated, one man headed towards Sung Han this was another in the opposite direction. Sung Han, who wanted to investigate because he was curious, followed where the troops had gone, saying he wanted to report to the general.
May they come to a great building. There was an imperial flag of Chang fluttering there. The troops entered the courtyard and the horseman entered the building after leaving his horse to the men.
"Damn!!" Sung Han slightly cursed as he inevitably had to infiltrate inside to investigate. Could have been he probed from the top of the tile, stole the listen. But not very effective.
He entered the courtyard by walking to the wall. Fortunately there are many garden ornamental trees that are enough to make it protected. As soon as he arrived next to the building, he almost suffocated when he heard the sound of people behind him.
"Who is that!!??"
Sung Han was ready with his fist. But he breathed a sigh of relief after knowing the person's intentions.
"Ah, you surprised me" said the officer who snapped. It turned out that he had been startled by the sudden arrival of his friend.
"You were told to stand guard, but where's your weapon!?" said his friend scolded a little firmly.
He laughed, "Who would dare play crazy to enter this building with an intrusion? Isn't it the same as being dead?"
"But you're too reckless!"
The first man laughed again. But strangely, a second later, the laughter stopped too suddenly followed by the collapse of the man with his friend who reprimanded.
Not long ago, there was already standing Sung Han who was smiling mischievously. "Hihi.forgive me."
He stripped one of them of their clothes and put them on. Then hid the bodies of the two in the garden bridge.
After feeling safe, he jumped on the tile, opened one of the tiles and floated down into the building with great light. Once there, he behaved normally. It was as if he was indeed a guard bodyguard in this room.
Once inside, he decided to walk randomly, because he did not know where the person he was following had gone. Until it was not felt, he arrived at the center of the building in front of which appeared two separate stairs. One to the right and one to the left.
"Thank you sir, then I'll go first" said someone who had just walked out the door, bowed respectfully and went from there down the stairs.
"That's it!" inner Sung Han was excited to know that the person who had just come out was the person he had been following.
He climbed the stairs and greeted her as he passed by. When that person was already far away, Sung Han headed to the room that the person had just come out of earlier. Upon arriving there, he was startled by the voices of people
from behind him there, more precisely from the bottom of the stairs, there was the sound of human footsteps. He came from inside the building, not from the direction where Sung Han had entered.
Quickly this young man twisted his brain, turning his head here and there to find a way out. Luckily on the left there is a fairly wide window. Without any doubt Sung Han jumped up there and crept up onto the roof of this building.
"Nearly enough.." he said he heaved a sigh of relief and opened the tile lid in the room that became his goal earlier. His eyes immediately bought as he knew who the person sitting there was.
"He's..."
