Empress, she is beautiful Lu Ziye

Chapter 164

There is a flat land under the natural mountain cliff, and several wooden houses are scattered here and there.

From the outside, the wooden house is mottled and dilapidated, as if uninhabited and in disrepair.There are two rows of large water tanks displayed in the open space, all of which are filled with water for emergencies.

There are often people walking around in front of and behind the house, and they do not greet each other when they meet, and they are doing their own things quietly and orderly.

The house was the house of bandits, but the people living in it were not bandits, but rather well-trained soldiers.If there is a slight abnormality, an ax and a long knife can be pulled out from under the haystack or straw mat, and confront the person who comes.

Xiao Rongxi and others took advantage of the cover of thorns to lie on the slope not far away.

Occasionally, insects and ants crawled up their bodies along the way, but they never paid attention to them, and only stared at the room in front of them for a moment.

As Jin Lin said, the people staying here are all people with excellent martial arts skills, and there are surveillance on all sides, and they only took advantage of the convenience of the shade of the trees to hide in the dark, so they were not discovered.

Getting closer, Xiao Rongxi frowned slightly, "It does smell of gunpowder."

Jinlin whispered, "Your Majesty, from a preliminary point of view, the two innermost rooms are for temporary storage of gunpowder, and the rest are for preparation and rest."

"temporary?"

"Yes, go down from the back of the cliff, and you will soon find a cave, which is the place for long-term storage."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw two people dressed in common clothes come out of the house, carrying a box of heavy objects, bypassing the haystack, and walking slowly towards the rear.

They are all tall and burly people, but it takes a lot of effort to lift the box, and they are shouting slogans.

With the movement of the two people lifting it, intermittent black powder fell from the box, which was undoubtedly gunpowder.

Seeing that the figures of the two were almost covered by the bushes and disappeared from sight, Xiao Rongxi immediately said, "Follow and have a look."

"Your Majesty, follow me."

Jin Lin moved lightly and nimbly, leading the way in front, and found the location of the cave after a large circle around the slope. There were still guards standing at the entrance of the cave.

The two men who carried the gunpowder had just arrived, and the guards saw that they were familiar faces, so they let them go.

After they went in, they came out again quickly, rubbing their hands, and trudging back.

"Brother, when will we have to move all the gunpowder in that house?"

"You ask me, who should I ask?" The other party sighed, and looked up at the sky, "Let's move two more boxes, and rest after moving."

The two walked away while talking, and Xiao Rongxi pressed down the cane that blocked his face.

Looking at the heavily guarded cave, his face sank.

"Jinlin, what's going on inside?"

Jinlin shook his head helplessly, "We have only found this entrance and exit so far, so we can't act rashly. We just took a look at it during the shift change, knowing that there is a large amount inside, and we haven't got more specific information yet."

How many things are hidden in Yushan Mountain needs to be explored further.

Xiao Rongxi nodded slightly, the matter was more serious than he imagined.

It is not so easy to destroy or use it for his own use in the place that Prince Chen spent many years planning to build.

There is no point in continuing to stay here, Xiao Rongxi thought for a moment, and said, "Let's go down the mountain first, and then find a way when we go back. During this time, we can dig out the situation of Mount Yu more clearly."

"Yes."

The horse's hooves are kicking in the dust, and the brown mane is shining finely in the dusk.

A group of people came quietly without telling each other, and left quietly, and when they returned to the city, it was only dark.
