My sister is the black lotus heroine

Chapter 43 The Weijiabao Rebellion

If we put aside the setting that the Wailou was built for the martial arts conference, and just look at the rows of arrow feathers and the hidden evidence of Wei Chonghua’s treason hidden in the secret passage, the Wailou is a qualified trap box for hiding important items , the arrow feather above the square pit is the first level, and the square pit is the second level.

Then the secret passage was deliberately built like this, naturally to protect the ironclad evidence, so that those who escaped the first two checkpoints will get lost in it and be completely trapped here.

Su Ling patted the dirt on her hands and stood up, Su Luo was still squatting there carefully holding a candle to observe the abnormality on the wall, Su Ling's shadow was pulled to the top of the dark passage.

Huge darkness enveloped this not-so-broad space, making the lingering sense of oppression in Zheng Junqing's heart even worse.

After Su Luo stood up, the black shadow slowly returned to the wall behind him, like a monster returning to its cage, it only came out with grinning teeth and was arrogant for a moment before being tamed again.

"The direction is correct. There is a sign on the wall, which is the same as the sign on the place where Li Yong and the others got lost." Su Luo's eyes were filled with jumping fire, she looked at Su Ling and said, "Then we just need to follow this path." If you are looking for traces, you must either find the final exit, or "is the hiding place of the ironclad evidence.

She didn't finish her sentence. After all, Zheng Junqing didn't know about the Central Plains Committee, and he was still a member of the court. Although he was far away from the court, after all, he also had an aunt who was the imperial concubine. If King Rui had the intention to usurp the throne, the Zheng family would be involved Which is definitely not a good thing.

After hearing this, Zheng Junqing also followed her gaze. Five feet above the ground, there was a tiny indented text the size of a teeny-head, "Wait a minute, give me a candle." He took the candle in Su Luo's hand Take a closer look, "Jin? How come there are characters written in the Western Jin Dynasty here? And how do you know where Li Yong escaped from?" He glanced at Ghost Raksha, "Since you saw it and didn't chase it, you let him go on purpose. of?"

After he finished speaking, he looked at Su Luo again, and wrote with bright eyes: "Look, I'll just say that he has ulterior motives."

Su Luo was taken aback, "Do you recognize the characters written in the Western Jin Dynasty?"

I don't know if it was her illusion, but Zheng Junqing's eyes dodged for a moment, and he put his fist on his lips and coughed dryly, "My father is inconvenient to move, so I found some idle books for him to relieve his boredom. Some picture books of Western Jin and Southern Chu, and I can recognize a few of them."

Su Luo didn't delve into it, and roughly explained, "Didn't you just block the snake for me in front of me, just now, you happened to see where the corner of Bai Hongjiu's clothes disappeared, and when you were looking for someone, you went to see what was different there. As for why you didn't chase after him." She paused, "The terrain here is complex, and hidden weapons are hidden somewhere, so it would be more dangerous if you go with Li Yong?"

Zheng Junqing's neck was sore, and she stood up belatedly, "Have you looked carefully, there is no other way?"

Su Luo shook her head, "This is not the road that Li Yong ran away from. We have also seen it. This is the first symbol we saw along the way."

Zheng Junqing thought for a moment, "It's too strange to say it really. It's a sickness to set an exit for the enemy in a situation where death is inevitable?"

"Where is the disease, isn't this just for Li Yong to use?"

Zheng Junqing said to her, "Are you stupid? Who would have expected that one of our own would fall in?"

Su Luo lowered her head and walked behind Su Ling, thinking that of course they couldn't expect it, they were absolutely sure that they would come in one day!

However, Wei Chonghua also has real trust in these two apprentices, or it is a real trust in Bai Hongjiu. After all, he personally supervised the construction of this enclosure, and he naturally knows where to put it here.

That's right, Bai Hongjiu is obsessed with tricks, so he doesn't bother to talk much, so he looks much more at ease than Li Yong, who has seven orifices and an exquisite heart.

Zheng Junqing walked beside Su Luo in the shadow of Ghost Raksha, and analyzed seriously, "If you want me to say, this might be connected to the important boundaries of Weijiabao, like some kind of study room or bedroom. Open the mechanism to get through, just in case Weijiabao is besieged one day, they can escape from here with their families.

By the way, didn't those people also suddenly appear in the city on the day Yincheng was attacked by the remnants of the Yan Kingdom?

Some people even rumored that it was the practice of Yan Guo Guoshi, who invited Yin soldiers to possess his body, tsk tsk, one by one can be broken. "

He seemed to be remembering the dangerous situation on the Qingming day on Foshou Mountain, and the look on Su Luo's expression became more and more indescribable.

This girl is really good at tricking these things?

Su Luo suddenly thought of something, grabbed Su Ling's wrist and said, "Master, Chu Pei!"

Su Ling instantly understood her intention.

Chu Pei is a member of Dongying Shu, and what they are best at is digging secret channels. Five years ago, Chu Pei's identity as a descendant of Nanyan was exposed, and he died in the clean-up of the Foshou Mountain Rebellion. Dongying Shu was also secretly suppressed. City, Su Ling never heard from them again.

If this secret passage was built by Dongying Shu in his early years, it is not impossible for Wei Chonghua to reuse it after Dongying Shu collapsed.Besides, this building was only built in the past few years, so it's not unreasonable——

Wei Chonghua was afraid of Dongyingshu's power, and after learning about this secret passage, he put it under his nose quietly, so as not to dig out another disgusting person quietly after he got angry, and Dongyingshu was suppressed by the court Afterwards, there were no more people to guard these secret passages, so Wei Chonghua simply re-used them.

But it didn't seem to have anything to do with how they escaped. At most, they knew that one of the secret passages led to the outside of Weijiabao, but they didn't know if it was sealed.

As for Su Luo, Zheng Junqing's words brought back the memories of the man who was tinged with the faint scent of plum fragrance when she first met. To be honest, she used to be blindfolded when she went out of the city, and she recognized his voice that night only after hearing his familiar voice. After thinking about him, it was just a vague look in retrospect. When he calmed down, he felt that this matter had nothing to do with how to escape, so he sighed and patted Zheng Junqing on the shoulder.

Zheng Junqing was already displeased with the strange tacit understanding between Gui Luocha and her, so when she saw it, she pinched her wrist and threw it away in disgust, "Can't you be normal?"

Su Luo said earnestly, "I think you always have the ability to wake up people in dreams."

Zheng Junqing calmed down, half-lidded her eyelids and said, "What?"

Su Luo put her arms on his shoulders again with a playful smile, "I was still thinking that this word was not written at the intersection, but in the middle of a dark passage, so how could Bai Hongjiu be able to confirm it at the intersection? Which way is right."

Zheng Junqing aroused a little interest, "Every road looks the same, except for the name you found, how can you confirm it?"

Su Luo was serious, "Maybe, the Yin soldiers were really summoned?"

Zheng Junqing ""

He shouldn't have any fantasies about this unlucky thing!

Zheng Junqing laughed angrily, took a deep breath and strode to the front.

Su Luo deliberately angered him, "Don't go so fast, just look at the sign before you go!" After that, she respectfully sent the candle to Zheng Junqing, "Mr. Zheng has worked hard, Mr. Zheng please. "

Zheng Junqing's idea of ​​reuniting with her old friend is gone, the nostalgia and resentment are gone, and the strangeness that hangs in her heart all the time has been completely burned by this fire, and there are two large characters floating in the clean heart - bastard!

Seeing Su Luo clasping her fists in a pretentious salute, his head hurt and he gritted his teeth and said, "Relax your heart!"

Su Luo nodded in relief.

This secret passage should not be big, and within a short time, they had already met several groups of people.

If Su Luo was not mistaken, they originally wanted to ask Zheng Junqing for questioning. After all, they were all in the pit, and it would be best to share some useful information. A few people even made up a group and asked him what he wanted. not together.

However, when they saw the ghost Luosha behind Zheng Junqing, those people all stopped and stopped talking.

They probably remembered the agreement Li Yong said before, although they all knew that this was a solicitation, but they couldn't stop people from being suspicious, not to mention that Gui Luocha had a bad reputation, and they didn't intend to provoke them.

As for Zheng Junqing who was walking in the front, he looked like a coolie who was captured by him to explore the way. They were afraid that they would not be able to avoid it in time, let alone walk together all the way.

Su Luo had expected such a scene early on, so she didn't feel relieved, until they met fewer and fewer people, and the people they met again were not just wary of jealousy, but a nervousness that was like an enemy, Su Luo finally realized There is something wrong.

Su Luo: "They"

"Shh." Su Ling pulled Su Luo against the wall, Zheng Junqing had already walked to the entrance of the secret passage in the front left, turned around and squatted halfway, and blew out the candle.

In the darkness, any sound or emotion was amplified, Su Luo heard her muffled heartbeat, and rubbed against Su Ling.

Su Ling never let go of the sword in her hand, and Su Luo also held the Emei thorn pinned to her waist in her palm.

Su Ling seemed to be waiting for something with her eyebrows fixed. After a while, there was the sound of footsteps coming from far and near, followed by a large fire. Obviously, the fire could not be illuminated by candles. He should have turned his corner. , the sound of footsteps was a bit slow, and then the sound of footsteps stopped, and Su Luo heard a weak moan, and then there was the sound of a sharp weapon piercing through the flesh of the body, and the flame jumped violently, and the shadow was terrifying.

Su Ling grabbed Su Luo's head and covered her mouth and nose, but the bloody smell still floated into her nose, it seemed that it was still warm and sticky in the nasal cavity, lingering.

Su Ling: "Someone died, don't be afraid."

As soon as the voice fell, the procrastinating footsteps sounded again.

Su Luo's hair stood up all over, almost thinking it was a fake corpse, and then realized that the dead person was killed by the owner of the footsteps.

Su Luo grabbed Su Ling's hand and wanted to write on her palm, but Su Ling's palm itched, and she grabbed her index finger, "It's okay, he has already found out, let's just say it."

Su Luo "That person's footsteps don't sound like those of a martial arts practitioner."

And those of them who fell into the square pit, no matter how strong or weak their martial arts are, they have tried it in the arena at any rate, that is to say, this person came in from another place.

He laughed lowly, and danced with the flames, the shadows on the ground stretched their teeth and claws, but the man turned his back to them.

Su Ling picked up a bead from Bai Hongjiu with her fingertips, and threw it towards the fire.

The man let out a muffled grunt, and knocked his knees heavily on the ground. The flame dimmed for an instant, and then dimly lit up again.From the looks of it, he really doesn't know martial arts.

Su Ling suppressed the doubts in her heart, poked her head out and took a look.

A completely cold corpse was lying at the foot of the wall, its eyes were bulging, there was a pool of blood under its body, its hair was also sticky with blood, and it hung wetly on its face. Su Luo glanced roughly, but couldn't see the shape of the wound clearly .

As for the murderer, he half-kneeled on the ground with his back to Su Ling, with a few blue blood vessels coiled on the back of his hand holding the torch, and his sleeves slid down his thin wrist, revealing a scarred arm.

The most important thing is that the torch was bright red, and the wet blood flowed down his wrist and into his sleeve. There was blood in his palm, but Su Ling didn't think it was from the corpse.

Su Ling held the sword and approached him.

"Who are you, where did you come in, and you have a grudge against him?"

He bent his whole back while laughing, and suddenly waved a torch to force Su Ling back two steps, and finally turned around.

There was some blood splattered on his face, his expression was a bit crazy, the front of his clothes was almost completely stained with blood, and reflected in the firelight, he looked like a ghost.

He said, "You're here at last!"

Su Ling didn't have the patience to play tricks with him, "Did Wei Chonghua let you in to kill people?"

"Wei Chonghua?" He limped forward two steps, "It is true that he let me in, but my target is not them, but you, ghost, Luo, Sha."

Su Ling immediately remembered what Li Yong said about the old man who knew the truth about Nanyun Thirteen Villages. She carefully discerned his eyebrows and eyes, but time has passed, and what happened so many years ago, except for the red blood of corpses everywhere, she obviously has no impression of him. .

"Are you from Thirteen Villages?"
