At that moment, the night patrol soldiers on the city gate tower also saw the arrival of the double-decker bus, and immediately the soldiers on board sounded the emergency horn.

The sharp sound of a horn pierced the quiet air, and the people inside the bus also heard the short, urgent horn sounds.

On the high city gate tower, the night patrol soldiers quickly arranged rows of archers to stand ready.

One of the officers, looking down at the monster that was gleaming in the darkness, was also startled.

His adjutant beside him said in a trembling voice, "General, what kind of monster is that at the city gate?"

Because it was very dark, the car's lights were on, and people could vaguely see figures inside from the outside. "Look, there seems to be someone inside. Could it be that the monster ate someone who hasn't died yet?"

"General, what should we do? Should we go rescue them now?"

The general on the city wall is named Lu Yi, and his adjutant Gu Yun is on duty here tonight!

"Let's see how things go first. Let's send someone to inform the Emperor!"

Gu Yun hesitated for a moment, then said, "General, the situation is still unclear. Should we wait and inform the Emperor later?"

Lu Yi shook his head and said, "Let's go now!"

"Otherwise, it will be even harder to explain if it goes on for too long."

Lu Yi had considered the matter carefully. After all, the monster that appeared at the gate of Lin'an City was no ordinary thing. If the harm was too great, no one could bear the responsibility.

Gu Yun immediately ordered someone to be sent to the palace to inform the emperor of this matter.

Those on the city wall were both shocked and frightened as they looked down at the double-decker bus, not knowing what it was!

The people on the bus gradually woke up from their sleep. Cheng Ying stretched, sat up straight, and looked forward.

We've arrived at the city gate of Lin'an, but it's still dark and the gates are closed before it opens.

After the car stopped, Ye Jinxuan, Ye Wuhen, Chu Qiao, Liu Haoyang, and Shi Mobai all woke up one after another.

At this moment, Eunuch Yuanfu came over and asked Ye Wuhen and Ye Jinxuan, "Your Highnesses, please wait a moment. This old servant will go down and have someone open the city gates. We will enter the city immediately and return to the palace to get some rest."

Ye Jinxuan nodded. "Alright! Thank you for making the trip, Eunuch Yuan."

Eunuch Yuanfu quickly waved his hand, "Oh! Your Highness, you are too kind. This old servant is a royal servant, and I am here to serve Your Highness. All this is what I should do. Please rest, I will go and take a look."

When Grandpa Yuanfu came down, he called several people down with him and said to them, "Go and knock on the door quickly!"

Several guards immediately went to knock on the door, but after knocking for a long time, there was no response from inside, which puzzled them.

After the two retreated, they looked towards the city wall from a distance. When they saw a row of imperial guards gesturing with weapons and bows and arrows in their direction, he quickly shouted:

"Which general is on duty up there? We are here to knock on the door on the orders of Eunuch Yuan. Please come down and open the door."

After shouting twice, a trembling voice finally came from the city wall: "You, who do you think you are?"

"What happened to that monster? Weren't you eaten by it? How did you manage to get out of there?"

The two guards were completely bewildered. Where was the monster? They looked behind them, and when they saw the bus, they could only smile helplessly.

One of the two guards quickly explained, otherwise they would be treated like little monsters.

“You’ve misunderstood. That big thing isn’t a monster. It’s just a vehicle, serving the same purpose as a horse-drawn carriage, only it’s a bit bigger and doesn’t have horses pulling it.”

"I have a token here. One of you can come down and take a look. Also, Eunuch Yuan and Duke Anguo are here. Even if you don't recognize us, you must recognize Eunuch Yuan!"

Because it was too dark to see who was down there, General Lu Yi decided to go down and take a look himself.

He was about to move when his adjutant, Gu Yun, stopped him. "General, to be on the safe side, let's go down into the basket and have them bring up the token. Let's confirm it first!"

Lu Yi hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "Okay!"

So the adjutant, Gu Yun, immediately went to arrange for the hanging basket.

The guards below waited for a long time but no one came to open the door. Just as they were about to shout, a rope was lowered down from above, with a hanging basket on the rope.

Just then, someone shouted from above, "Excuse me, please show us the token first so we can confirm it."

The two guards had no choice but to place the token given to them by Eunuch Yuanfu.

Once the basket was raised, Lu Yi carefully picked up the token, examined it in the firelight, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that it was indeed the palace's exit token!

After exchanging a glance, Gu Yun asked, "General, shall we open the door?"

"open it!"
