A Pair of Eclipse Swords
Chapter : 230 – Burn Warehouse
Today, was the day that Prince Chang Song Ci would go west of the city to see the farmland there. It is the routine of the prince to go around the city at certain times. Either this is because he asked the people or just went around to find a way to escape if the rebellion was exposed.
That morning a large group came out of the city lord's residence complex, greeted by city residents who cheered all good prayers. Naturally they did not know what the original form of the prince Chang Song Ci was.
Three of his new bodyguards accompanied the party on horseback and walked behind the prince's carriage. They stand close to each other. This is one of their strategies so that if at any time there is a change of plan, it will be easier to discuss it.
On the night two days ago, Xian Fa had gone to investigate to the west of the city and found some information. One of them is the residence of the prince who will be used by the man to rest during his stay there.
Also Xian Fa said where the locations were suitable for conducting the battle. That is in the forest near the rice fields, in addition to its dark place, also flat land so that it makes it easier for them to move. For them, the darkness at night had little effect on the fight. They still have both ears and a keen sense of smell.
A few minutes later, finally this large group arrived in the western part of the city. As soon as they entered this western region, the atmosphere instantly changed. If the sounds of urban frenzy that whispered the ears, now the sound of crickets and birds chirping that accompanied their journey.
As far as the eye can see, there is only the green color of the leaves of rice that is refreshing. The mountain slopes in the west there add to the beauty of this region. It was as if the mountain was a guardian figure for this western region.
The prince was welcomed. Although the rumors of his rebellion were already well known, but for the citizens who did not really care who their leader was, could welcome any arrival of nobles quite kindly. No exception to the people in the western part.
First the prince was taken to the residence in the west, then accompanied by his concubines, he went around the city looking around. So far, things are pretty comfortable and under control. There was no sign of suspicion from everyone. But Xian Fa and the other two people should always hold back and be calm until at least the night greets later.
...****************...
The door of Xian Fa's resting place was knocked. He had been waiting for this since then and immediately opened the door. A moment later, he closed back. However, inside his room had stood two people.
"I thought you were asleep,"
"Oh, you underestimated me" Xian Fa said in response to Han Ji's words. "You're sleepy, right? Haha, your classmate can still get sleepy?"
Han Ji snorted and rubbed his eyes. His eyes felt a little heavier this time. But it would not be so problematic if he immediately meditated gathering nature.
"So, we do it now?" hok Liu said.
Xian Fa nodded. "Wait a minute. A few moments later it was almost morning, it was a very vulnerable time because the guards were getting tired and sleepy."
"Alright, then we wait here," Hok Liu agreed and immediately sat down on the floor of the room. Followed by Han Ji who immediately meditated.
Xian Fa had no choice but to sit and meditate.
Time passed by unnoticed and an hour had passed since the three of them had gathered in that room. It was early morning and this was the most dangerous time. Where the majority of the guards were already sleepy and asleep. After all, they would never have thought that tonight there would be a commotion.
"You wait for a sign from us," Xian Fa reminded and replied a nod by Hok Liu.
Xian Fa had previously investigated this place for up to a day. He circled around the Leaf town of this western region to look for a crack where the three of them could act.
And he found one good place to be a source of chaos, the warehouse containing this pile of chaff. And the number of buildings there are three.
There was absolutely no guard who would bother to watch over the place. The last time the two young men met the guard was in a stable not far from here.
Han Ji turned his head to the left, when he felt that it was safe, he gave a sign to Xian Fa.
The young man understood and lit a torch, carried it to the roof of the warehouse and threw the torch into it after opening the tile. The same thing he did to the other two buildings.
Initially nothing happened, it took a fairly time-consuming process to make smoke appear to be billowing through the cracks of the building. Seeing this Xian Fa immediately jumped down and approached Han Ji.
"Big!" xian Fa said.
"That means now we just have to wait," Han Ji said. He peeked out from behind the walls of the building, looking towards the horse stable not far away. His face looked worried. "May they be unaware of the smoke. Why is it burning so long?"
Xian Fa smiled awkwardly. "It looks like the husk is a little wet. Just wait a minute."
And sure enough, the sound of burning husks was heard louder until those outside the building were able to hear it. What is beginning to be seen from behind the gap of the warehouse. It looks bright red. But no one has been able to come out except only black smoke that is getting thicker and thicker. From a distance, the warehouse was almost similar to a furnace that emitted smoke.
When Han Ji and Xian Fa were busy watching the burning building, they were shocked to see some people who had previously guarded the stables approaching the barn. Even though their attitude seems lazy.
"Ah, the warehouse is on fire!" shout one of them. And the sleepiness disappeared instantly.
The seven immediately turned around to warn the others. However as commanded, Xian Fa and Han Ji had already come out of hiding and chased after them. Once it moved, the seven people had already collapsed slammed.
"It should be from this place of Hok Liu already seen enough. Let's go over there and help him."
Han Ji nodded, he and Xian Fa immediately looked for a way to go to where Hok Liu was.
Sure enough what Xian Fa said, there were already many bodyguards who came to this place with a crowd. They became noisy and panicked when they saw seven of them collapsed dead in the middle of the road.
That very night, the residence was stirred by a warehouse fire. And they were all completely unaware of the great fight that was taking place on the reverse side of the warehouse.
