Chapter 249 Start
"My lord," Huo Anu analyzed to Xu Zun, "The curfew outside is so strict, and this group of men in black came so fast, they must have been dormant nearby long ago, right? It's a pity that no one was left alive!"

"They..." Xu Zun then remembered something, and hurriedly asked, "Didn't they leave after they blocked the entrance of the cave?"

"I didn't have time," Hou Zhen said hastily, "After Fire Girl and I escaped, we happened to meet the inner guard who came to support us on the road, so we killed them back in time."

"That's right," Huo Anu said, "When we came back, they had already buried most of the hole, and seeing that there was not enough soil, they threw the beams, stones and other sundries down, and if they came a little later, they would probably run away !"

"Well," Xu Zun nodded, "I don't want to worry about so much now, let this person be dealt with by the inner guard, you guys come out with me, this time I really have something important to tell!"

"Yes!" Everyone agreed in unison.

Ah Xiuzai was about to go out with the policeman, but Xu Zun suddenly remembered something and stopped him immediately.

Then, Xu Zun took out a piece of paper full of marks from his pocket, and handed it to this person for viewing.

"Look carefully, do you recognize these marks?"

"This..." the policeman replied, "It looks a bit familiar, when I first joined them, once I found out any information, I would mark it in a fixed place.

"After it's done, someone will come to ask, or beggars, or vendors..."

Oh……

Xu Zun immediately realized that this person used the mark when he first joined, and after the inspection period of this person passes, he can directly set up a station near the God Detective Division.

From this point of view, the intelligence agency of this Taoist sect is also quite advanced and meticulous. No wonder it has been able to operate for such a long time under the noses of Neiwei and Shenhunsi.

Next, Xu Zun asked him to draw the previous mark, but found that it was completely different from the one on his paper.

It seems that these marks should be used for communication between various departments of the Taoist sect. Even if they can be deciphered, they cannot solve the urgent need.

What Xu Zun is most worried about now is naturally the upcoming Heavenly Tribulation Plan!
After a while, Xu Zun came outside with several core subordinates.

The temperature rose sharply and the sun was dazzling. Xu Zun, who had just come out of the ground, was not used to it, so he told everyone his speculation.

Everyone was shocked after hearing this, especially Huo Anu.

"I said why I always feel that something is missing. Thinking about it this way, those pills are really powerful! If they are eaten by the palace guards, the consequences will be disastrous!"

"My lord doesn't know," Ashius reminded hastily, "Whether guarding the palace is the Jinwu Guard or the Habayashi Guard, they are not allowed to eat in the palace."

"Oh?" Xu Zun asked hurriedly, "Where did that come from?"

"They all have a shift guard system. Every time they enter the palace, they eat something in advance, and after they are on duty, they go back to the barracks for dinner."

"It's broken," Xu Zun was even more shocked after hearing the news, "Isn't this even worse!?
"It takes about half an hour for the pill to go into effect, just enough to mix the pill with a meal, and then go into the palace and then go into effect, then... wouldn't it be unnecessary to take the risk of transporting the pill into the palace?
"So, my previous train of thought was wrong, it wasn't Xu Chi, the imperial physician, and maybe it wasn't the transfer envoy...

"Ashiu boy," he asked hastily, "do you know when those Jinwu guards and Habayashi guards change shifts?"

"It's...it's about noon! Oh, my God..."

In one sentence, everyone was shocked.

The large-scale assassination operation seven days ago was also at noon.

"At this time..." Hou Zhen clapped his hands fiercely, "I'm afraid they have finished their meal and are about to enter the palace to change shifts?"

"Hurry up," Xu Zun told Ashizai, "Quickly go and inform the gates of the palace, these people cannot be allowed to enter the palace!

"Even if I guess wrong, at most it's a disturbance of order and a lie about the military situation, but if I guess right, it's a huge crisis!"

"Yes, I understand, but..." Ashius said in embarrassment, "One is that the palace is so big, I'm afraid it's too late to notify all the city gates; Give it to Manager Lin to prevent them from changing shifts!"

"It doesn't matter," Xu Zun said, "Although you do your best, if you can't do it, you deliberately make trouble and stir up trouble. As long as the palace gate is in chaos, at least those guards who should be off duty will not leave!"

"Oh..." Ah Xiuzai suddenly realized, "I understand, I'll do it right away, and let my subordinates go to each city gate separately!"

"Li Xing," Xu Zun ordered, "you go and inform Manager Lin and Cai Geling that there is an urgent need to support the palace!"

"Yes!"

Li Xing and A Xiuzai immediately jumped on the fast horse and split up...

"Ani, Hou Zhen," Xu Zun ordered to the two of them again, "Go and do something more important for me, engrave these marks on conspicuous places around the palace..."

As he spoke, he handed the paper full of Taoist symbols to the two of them.

"This..." Ani couldn't figure it out, "My lord, have you figured out the meaning of these marks?"

"I don't understand," Xu Zun said frankly, "It's just that if the Heavenly Tribulation is about to start, I just hope that these marks can disturb them for a while!"

"Oh... Got it!" Ani nodded, and immediately followed Hou Zhen's orders.

In fact, the reason why Xu Zun asked Hou Zhen to accompany Ani was not because he couldn't trust Ani, but because Ani was such a beautiful woman, if there was no inner guard to accompany her, it might cause unnecessary trouble.

What's more, Hou Zhen can also order other guards to help, and it will be more effective with half the effort.

After they all left, Xu Zun and Huo Anu jumped on the fast horses and headed straight for the Neiwei Mansion.

"My lord, my lord..." Huo Anu asked on horseback, "Should we go to the palace to have a look at this time?"

"No!" Xu Zun said decisively, "The whole Heavenly Tribulation event planned by Xuanmen is an extremely huge chess game. I have to figure out every step of their steps before I can stop them! Drive..."

As he said that, Xu Zun sped up his horse, speeding up, and Huo Anu immediately whipped his whip to keep up...

……

At the same time, in the dark and gloomy underground, Zhao Yu was crawling along an extremely narrow passage with several detectives from the God Detective Division.

This seems to be an ancient sewer, the stone bricks on both sides are old and black, and they are old.

Because the passage was too narrow, Zhao Yu and the others could not light torches, and could only rely on the faint light of the scythe for illumination.

In this way, after crawling for a stick of incense, they finally climbed out of the passage and came to a relatively spacious space.

Even though it was only a moment of incense sticks, for these people, it seemed like a lifetime away, thinking that they would never come out again.

After the torch was lit, there were many collapsed heads of gods in front of my eyes, each of which was bigger than a human, and their faces were ferocious, extremely terrifying.

ho...

Several arresters were terrified, thinking that this was the underworld.

At this moment, only Zhao Yu didn't show any fear, instead he had a dignified expression.

After lighting the torch, he observed the statues for a while, and then decisively signaled the arresters to follow him.

It turned out that the shrewd Zhao Yu had already discovered the way after searching underground for a long time.

Whenever he encountered a fork in the road, he would see a damp and blackened moss.

However, when he touched the moss, he found that it was not real moss, but made of some kind of twine, which was so realistic that if you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see it at all.

In an instant, Zhao Yu understood everything!
Xu Zun said before that even if Xuanmen mastered Cao Ding's canal map, it would be impossible to find the correct path smoothly.

They also need to keep exploring and trying.

Then, since it is fumbling and trying, it is impossible not to leave a mark for the next search.

However, once a mark is left, the probability of being discovered will increase sharply.

Therefore, they had to think of a signpost that could be recognized by their own people but would not be discovered by outsiders.

But... how shrewd Zhao Yu was, even though he had discovered this secret and was very excited, he didn't show it at all.

Because he also knows that people from the Taoist sect are hiding very deeply, and he can't guarantee that the few policemen who are following him now will have no problems.

"My lord, my lord Zhao..." At this moment, a policeman couldn't help but ask, "We've traveled so far, and although we've left marks along the way, there are so many forks in the road, it's hard to guarantee that we'll remember it wrong!
"Look, should we go back and report to Lord Xu first?"

"Shh..."

Unexpectedly, after Zhao Yu signaled them to silence, he suddenly pulled out the saber behind him!

what?
The arresters were startled, shut up one after another, and entered a state of alert.

At this moment, Zhao Yu had come to a corner, and a gigantic disc appeared in front of him, which seemed to be the base of the god statue back then.

And bypassing the base, I saw something amazing appeared in front of me...

"Ah?" Everyone's eyes widened, and they all gasped, feeling that something was wrong.

But seeing all kinds of clothes scattered densely on the ground, including men's and women's, it was obvious that a large group of people had changed clothes here before.

Moreover, among the clothes, there was actually armor that only palace guards could wear...
