C234 Induction
Yu Yue looked at the violent actions of these guards. He did not make a sound and only observed silently.
The middle-aged man beside him was surnamed Huang. He was an ordinary citizen of Qiluo City. The reason he left the city this time was to visit his relatives in other cities. Because the speed of the troops on both sides was different, he had bid farewell to Yu Yue not long ago and was the first to be inspected.
Following that, Yu Yue also queued at the front of the line. Two guards walked up and said with a serious face, "Get out of the car and accept an inspection."
He jumped out of the car without hesitation. "Sir guards, I am happy to accept the examination."
The two of them were not moved by his attitude at all. They only glanced at him and determined that he was not the person they were looking for.
"What are you doing?"
"A grocery merchant."
... "Where are we going this time?"
"Sir guard, I'm going to the Gothic City to do business."
One of them pointed to the back of the carriage and asked, "What's in this box?"
He continued to answer in a proper manner, "It is the grass that livestock eat."
"Open the carriage." One of them ordered.
Yu Yue hesitated and said without confidence, "You can check the grain, but I have a presumptuous request... Can you not open one of the boxes? Because..."
"Don't talk so much nonsense, quickly open the box!"
One of them shouted and pulled out the long knife from his waist.
Yu Yue was trembling from the scolding. He looked at the shiny long knife with fear in his eyes. He swallowed his saliva and took out a key with sweat all over his face. He opened a big lock at the back of the carriage.
His reaction was very normal. Many commoners were so scared that they could not move when they saw swords and knives. The two guards thought disdainfully. Although the person in front of them was dressed like an adventurer, he was also afraid of death.
They only felt that everything was normal, so they walked to the back of the unlocked door.
The car was very big. After opening the back door to the side, a wide space was revealed.
Just as Yu Yue had said, the large space behind the carriage was filled with straw. It was filled with straw that filled the entire carriage. There was a very conspicuous metal box inside the carriage.
The box was very big, as tall as a person. It could definitely hide someone. The two guards' attention was naturally attracted by the box.
One of the guards went forward to pull the box. When he saw that the box was also locked, he ordered Yue: "Open the box!"
He looked troubled: "Sir guards, I forgot the key to the box at a distant relative's house, so..."
"You can't open it?" The guard frowned. "Fine." After saying that, he suddenly drew his long blade.
Yu Yue panicked. He stepped forward to stop the guard. "No, sir Guard! This cabinet is very valuable, and it is a gift for someone else. You cannot destroy it!"
Another guard reached out to grab Yu Yue's arm, but he suddenly twisted his body and dodged the guard's grab. Yu Yue continued to rush towards the guard who wanted to destroy the box.
"Someone come!"
The guard who did not catch Yu Yue shouted. Immediately, four of the guards who were waiting behind him rushed forward and grabbed Yu Yue.
Although Yu Yue's hands and feet were nimble, as the saying goes, two fists cannot fight four hands, he was still caught by the five guards and pressed to the ground.
The guard who raised the knife looked at Yu Yue coldly. Then, he raised the knife in his hand and swung it down. The knife landed on the handle of the cabinet and broke the handle and lock at the same time.
With a cracking sound, the lock fell to the ground. Cracks appeared on the cabinet because of the broken handle. The cracks were not deep, but it was obvious that it would not work if he said he was giving it to someone.0
The guard stretched out his hand and roughly opened the cabinet door.
There wasn't anyone hidden in the cabinet as he had expected. There were only some miscellaneous items.
The guard pointed at these miscellaneous items and coldly looked at Yu Yue. "Are these things very valuable?"
Yu Yue was pressed down to the ground. He looked like he was crying. "It's not that these things are precious, but that the boxes are precious! The box that I wanted to give to someone was destroyed by you just like that! How can I give it to someone else!? "
" Shut up! " The guard shouted and pointed his sword at Yu Yue. "If you continue to talk nonsense, I will kill you!"
Yu Yue widened his eyes and looked at the long knife in fear. He shut his mouth tightly and did not dare to speak anymore.
The guard casually flipped the straw, then stabbed the knife with his knife and made a gesture to leave the carriage.
The other guards also let go of Yu Yue after receiving his gesture.
The guards retreated. Before they left, the guard with the knife said to Yue coldly, "Get lost!"
Yu Yue looked like he had lost his soul as he drove away.
The guards did not take him seriously and continued with their mission.
Yu Yue's face was full of grief. The carriage moved forward and gradually arrived outside the city.
When he was sure that he had completely left the city gate's line of sight, his expression suddenly changed. His expression was calm.
He drove the car and continued moving forward. After making a small circle, he finally arrived at the south gate of Qiluo City far away from the north gate. After passing through the south gate's inspection, he returned to the interior of Qiluo City.
He realized that entering the city was much easier than leaving the city. Basically, he would let him in after asking a few questions. It seemed that they only cared about whether the elves would escape. They were very relaxed about other matters.
After entering the city, he parked the carriage in front of a large inn that he had specially opened, and a waiter brought in a specialized horse shed.
Yu Yue dismounted from his horse, and after the attendant left, he began to inspect the things in the carriage.
The things inside the carriage were all borrowed from Dracula.
The herbs, boxes, and miscellaneous items in the boxes were only the boxes that were slightly worth some money. The rest were all worthless things.
He didn't check the box, because that wasn't the point. He pulled open the thick grass and saw a scarecrow in human form inside.
That's right, this was the main point!
His idea was to attract the attention of the guards through the box that could not be opened. He wanted the guards to search for the grass as they pleased and lower their vigilance towards the grass.
As expected, after the guards opened the box and found that there were only some random things inside, their vigilance dropped to a very low level. The search for the grass was very simple, they only needed to put on a show before leaving.
He inspected the scarecrow, who was wrapped in a white cloth. Although the guards had stabbed the scarecrow a few times before leaving, they did not stab the scarecrow in the deepest part. The white cloth on the scarecrow was intact.
Looking at the scarecrow that was unharmed and not discovered, he felt that this method would work.
As long as he protected himself well, even if he was stabbed by a knife, he wouldn't be injured.
Although this method was simple, it was a very good method to blind one's sight. The so-called most dangerous place was the safest place, which meant the same thing.
Placing the carriage here, he returned to the inn he randomly chose. After eating some food, he rushed back to the Hong Yun Inn.
