They gathered at the entrance of the teahouse, and the people inside had naturally noticed it a long time ago.
However, perhaps because they were in a dilemma, the people inside did not return through the secret passage they came from, but remained where they were.
Perhaps, he is waiting for support from the barbarian warriors outside.
"Get started." Following Huang Yuling's order, a guard from the Huang family kicked the door open.
A dozen guards filed in and rushed to the second floor where some people were hiding. Most of the rest of the people surrounded the teahouse, guarding against the barbarians who might panic and escape by jumping out of the window.
Wei Yunlan and Tu You, as well as two other skilled Tu family guards, were led by Heiyun through the back door of the teahouse's front hall and into the warehouse where they stored their tea sets and household items.
It's pitch black inside.
Apart from two antique shelves at the entrance, which were filled with sets of tea sets, most of the space inside was cluttered with some old chairs and tea tables.
It must be an old thing discarded from outside, and it still exudes a faint smell of decay.
The dust is choking.
Tu You covered his nose with his sleeve and asked in confusion: "What is here?"
Wei Yunlan gently tugged at her sleeve and turned sideways to gesture "shut up" to her.
Heiyun, who was walking in front of the two of them, had his hair standing up and was in a state of alert.
There's someone in this room!
Wei Yunlan guessed that the exit of the secret passage leading from the underground of the City Affairs Office might be hidden here.
Outside, the sound of weapons clashing could be heard more and more clearly.
Apparently, the guards upstairs had encountered several barbarians hiding in the building, and the two sides began to fight.
Compared with the bustling scene outside, this warehouse seemed extremely quiet.
Wei Yunlan did not dare to be careless, as there were already six silver needles between the fingers of his left hand hanging by his side.
At this moment, two flashing figures suddenly jumped out from behind the two tea tables, aiming directly at the two Tu family guards following Wei Yunlan and Tu You.
Obviously, in the eyes of the other party, the two tall and strong guards were the ones who deserved the most attention.
However, how could Wei Yunlan and Tu You be real ladies?
The long whips and silver needles in the two men's hands are not just for show.
Tu You just raised his hand, and the whip in his hand flew out and wrapped around one of them.
Wei Yunlan did not hesitate at all and shot the silver needle in his hand at the other person's chest.
The two barbarians didn't really pay much attention to them.
When he saw the speed and strength of the two people's attacks, he realized that he had underestimated them. However, it was too late to dodge. With a "snap" sound, the whip hit the chair next to him, then rolled back and hit the barbarian's thigh.
Wei Yunlan took the opportunity to add three more silver needles to his fingertips. Taking advantage of the barbarian's frozen body, he shot them directly at his forehead and temple.
Everything happened in just a moment.
The barbarian, whose thigh was wrapped by the whip, was hit right between the eyebrows by one of the silver needles and fell down suddenly.
Another barbarian, seeing that the situation was not good, immediately blew a whistle in an attempt to warn his companions.
However, he had already been injected with multiple needles because he was moving before, and not every needle hit the acupuncture points. But after being injected with five or six needles in a row, how could there be no effect on the body?
The most obvious impact is that the movements are a bit slower.
The whistle sounded briefly before it was interrupted by a black cloud flying over.
Immediately afterwards, two bloody holes appeared on the neck and no sound was made anymore.
The Tu family guard was still worried, so he stepped forward and gave each of the two men another sword attack.
This ensured that the two bodies on the ground were completely dead.
"Huh..." Tu You let out a long sigh.
Wei Yunlan's tightly furrowed brows had not yet relaxed as he turned his head to look in the direction where the two barbarians had just run out.
"Be careful, there are still people around."
Tu You, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, immediately held his breath and looked in the direction Wei Yunlan was looking with burning eyes.
The house was silent.
Against the backdrop of the sounds of fighting outside, this place seemed as quiet as another world.
Suddenly, a slightly rapid breathing sound broke the silence.
Even before going forward, one could tell that there was indeed someone hiding behind the messy tables and chairs!
I heard "click" and "click" sounds one after another.
Wei Yunlan's expression froze, he raised his sword and climbed onto the table that was blocking his way, and at the same time he pointed his finger at the house and said to Heiyun, "Stop the people inside!"
The "crackling" sounds inside became more frequent.
It sounded like something was turning.
No need to guess, it’s most likely the entrance to the secret passage hidden in this room!
Then, the "crackling" sound suddenly stopped, and a somewhat rough voice cursed in the language outside the pass, "Dead dog, get out of here."
Climbing over the tables and chairs that were blocking the way, Wei Yunlan took a few steps forward and saw a piece of dark blue robe sticking out from the depths of the room.
"Second Prince Huyan."
Wei Yunlan suddenly spoke.
The cursing voice suddenly stopped.
"Even if you return to the City Affairs Office now, you will be trapped in a jar. Why bother struggling any further?"
"Just come out."
From deep inside the room, the sound of gnashing teeth could be heard repeatedly.
Not long after, a man in a navy blue robe and covered in dust walked out from the corner of the room.
His body moved aside, and everyone saw that what was blocked by his tall body was a passage extending downwards.
It was just as Wei Yunlan had guessed before.
This is the secret passage connecting to the City Affairs Office.
Wei Yunlan took a deep look into the dark passage, listened carefully, then looked down at Heiyun who was following him. Seeing that Heiyun had let down his guard and become docile, he knew that there was no one else hiding in the passage.
That's strange.
Since the Northern Barbarians sent so many people to rescue the second prince, they must be taking it seriously.
But after finally bringing the person out of the Beiguan City dungeon, he was only left with two mediocre guards, but Zenm seemed unusual no matter how he looked at him.
Could it be that this Second Prince Huyan is a fake?
Wei Yunlan's gaze fell on the other person's rugged face.
One can vaguely see some shadow of the Northern Barbarian Chanyu.
It doesn't seem fake.
There is no need for the Northern Barbarians to go to so much trouble for a fake.
"Take the rope and tie the man up first." Wei Yunlan said to the two Tu family guards.
The two men did not have any hemp ropes on them, but they did have two belts, one for tying their arms and the other for tying their legs.
"Let this prince go."
"Otherwise, if the army outside breaks in, I will have you cut into pieces and feed your flesh to the dogs!"
"Forget it."
Without waiting for the Second Prince to threaten him with his lame words filled with an accent from outside the Great Wall.
Wei Yunlan took out a handkerchief from the space and directly blocked his mouth.
