Chapter 377: Secret Passage in the Wardrobe
Yu Shengsheng was reluctant to blink, and before she had seen enough of the scenery, she was taken to the Temple of the Heavenly King by Fu Qingyin.
The two landed gently, and Yu Shengsheng asked in a low voice: "Is this the back mountain?"
"Yes, although Tianwang Temple is just a temple, it covers a large area. There are some trees and rocks on the back mountain. Therefore, you can't just come in without a complete understanding."
The reason why Fu Qingyin came now was that after sending secret guards to investigate several times, he was sure that he would not alert the enemy.
Yu Shengsheng was a little nervous and focused more, trying her best not to become a burden to him and not to make any noise.
"Come this way," Fu Qingyin pulled her and led her forward.
His palm was large, wrapped around hers, warm and dry.
Yu Shengsheng's heart skipped a beat. She looked up at him and heard him whisper, "Look at your feet. Where I go, you go too. There may be a formation here."
"Oh, okay."
Yu Shengsheng came back to her senses, her ears felt hot, she took a deep breath and reminded herself not to let her mind wander.
As she was led forward by him and her feet walked along the ground where he had walked before, Yu Shengsheng unknowingly felt the tension in her heart dissipate. It didn't feel like she was solving a case, but rather like she was playing a game.
He has long legs and takes big steps, so Yu Shengsheng has to jump when she steps on the places he has stepped on.
Fu Qingyin walked for a while, turned his head and saw her steps, a smile appeared on his face.
I was indeed careless just now. I was only thinking about how to walk correctly and ignored the fact that her steps were small.
Jumping around like that, it really looks like a little rabbit.
It's quite interesting.
However, I was afraid that she would get too tired from dancing too much, so I took smaller steps.
Yu Shengsheng felt it as she walked, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, feeling inexplicably happy.
…
Lu Xingyue asked in a low voice: "What sound?"
After asking the question, he also saw it and pointed at a row of small holes under the wardrobe and exclaimed in a low voice.
"What, what is that?"
There is a row of small holes at the bottom of the wardrobe. At first glance, I thought it was a hollow pattern, but now air is hissing out.
Hei Bai immediately took out the prepared handkerchief, took out a small water bag from his bag, and wet the handkerchief.
"Quick, cover your mouth and nose."
Lu Xingyue quickly took it and did as she was told.
She had seen the small water bag in the bag a long time ago and thought that the water was for drinking, but Hei Bai never let her drink it.
I only now realize that it is used to save lives.
"Why don't you use it?"
Hei Bai smiled: "I don't need it. These things can't bother me."
Lu Xingyue asked again: "Didn't you let me take the pill? Why are you still..."
"Just to be on the safe side, who knows what this cigarette is."
Lu Xingyue's health is not good to begin with. If the smoke is more poisonous, it will be bad if her body is damaged.
In fact, Hei Bai didn’t understand either. There are also female secret guards, like Lu Hu, which would save much trouble. Why did they have to let Lu Xingyue come?
He asked his master, but his master said that he should just do as he was told.
Okay, then he will do his best to protect it.
Lu Xingyue looked at the place where the mist came out: "How did it come out from inside? Is there a dark room underneath, and is there someone there?"
Before Hei Bai could answer, a slight sound came from inside.
Lu Xingyue widened her eyes and covered her mouth tightly.
His black and white eyes moved quickly, and he whispered, "There are people down there, probably to see if we are dizzy. There must be a passage down here, and they are going to take us down."
Lu Xingyue clenched the handkerchief with her fingers: "Then...what should I do?"
Hei Bai raised his hand and extinguished the candle: "Don't you always say you are brave? Do you dare to go down and take a walk?"
Lu Xingyue breathed rapidly, her eyes flashing in the darkness: "Dare."
After a while, the wardrobe was opened from the inside.
Two people dressed as Taoist priests came out.
They looked into the room and saw one person lying on the bed and one lying on the floor.
The two men chuckled and said, "Quick, carry the man down. We have to go to Hongyuan Temple to check on the goods later."
"Didn't they say there was one that was particularly ugly?"
"We don't care whether they are ugly or not. We will carry them down for them to see. They decided that if we leave one behind, it will be troublesome if he wakes up."
"OK."
As they talked, they went to the bed to look.
Lu Xingyue and Hei Bai were both quite thin, so there was no need to lift them; each person could just carry one.
The man picked up the black and white and exclaimed: "This woman is quite tall."
The room was dark and they couldn't tell which was the lady and which was the maid.
For them, this identity doesn't matter.
"They are from a wealthy family, so they eat well and grow tall, that's normal."
The two men opened the closet and leaned in.
Black and white eyes were half open, and as they stepped into the closet, they lightly touched the door outside the closet with their fingers.
A faint silver color, as if it is there and not there.
This is a passage. The bottom panel of the wardrobe can be pulled out. After pulling out one layer, there is another layer. After pulling out the bottom layer, you will find the entrance to the secret passage.
The secret passage was relatively wide, with dim brazier lamps installed on both sides. The air was a bit stuffy, but not damp.
Hei Bai thought to himself that this meant that this secret passage was not newly built, but had been there for some time.
This means that they have been doing this for quite some time.
The secret passage turned a corner at the end, but it was not complicated. After turning the corner, there was a spacious place, as big as a room, with two stone beds. The walls were made into shelves with many tools hanging on them.
But when they got here, the lights were much brighter, and Hei Bai didn't dare to look with his eyes open, so he couldn't see clearly what was hanging.
The smell in the air was not very pleasant, it smelled like blood, medicine, and earth.
There is some other smell, which I cannot distinguish.
With his eyes closed, he heard the man carrying him say, "We have picked up the goods. We are handing them over to you."
The people in the room stood up and it sounded like there were two or three people.
"Okay, put it down."
Immediately afterwards, Bai Hei and Lu Xingyue were put on the stone bed.
Someone was watching them by the light.
One of them said: "Oh, I was shocked. Why is this person so ugly?"
"How do you do things? You take down such an ugly person. Isn't this a waste of time? Can this be used?"
Hei Bai listened and was so angry. Why would a group of evil villains dislike him?
The man carrying him also came over to see and involuntarily shrank back.
"Really? It's so ugly. It was so dark up there just now that I didn't notice it."
"It's not too late to find out now. I will go to Hongyuan Temple from the back mountain and bring her up and bury her directly in the back mountain."
After that, Hei Bai was carried up again.
Hei Bai thought about it and decided that this wouldn’t work. No matter what, he had to stay with Lu Xingyue.
At this time, the three of them also surrounded Lu Xingyue.
Lu Xingyue was pretending to be unconscious, and she heard what was said just now.
When she was carried up, she tried hard not to be nervous. But when she was put on the stone bed, she felt the coolness and couldn't help but get goose bumps.
Now I heard that Hei Bai was going to be taken away and buried, which made me even more nervous.
Even though she closed her eyes tightly, the three men could see it.
"Oh, that's interesting."
