Su Zhao shouted on the shore to be careful of traps, and Yu Xiaoxiao kicked the locked bronze door.
The bronze door shattered with a sound. It didn't matter whether there was a mechanism inside, because even if there was, it was destroyed by Her Royal Highness the Princess along with the bronze door.
Gu Xinglang walked to Yu Xiaoxiao's side, and the young couple looked into the door together. A stone staircase turned southeast after going down ten meters.
Yu Xiaoxiao looked up to the southeast. This big house was located at the deepest part of Fenggu Village. Going further in, Yu Xiaoxiao said to Gu Xinglang, "Does this road lead to the West Mountain?"
Gu Xinglang said: "Is there anyone inside?"
Yu Xiaoxiao listened inside the door, shook her head at Gu Xinglang, and said, "No."
At this time, Su Zhao walked up to the two of them and stuck his head to look inside the door. The stone steps and the walls on both sides were covered with thick moss, which immediately made Su Zhao frown.
Yu Xiaoxiao glanced at Su Zhao's frown, then followed Su Zhao's gaze to look at the wall inside the door and said to Su Zhao, "This is moss. It looks slippery, but it's actually edible. Can I get some for you to try?"
It looks disgusting, and you still want him to eat it?
Su Zhao tried not to vomit, but it seemed too embarrassing to vomit like this. (Not "seemingly", but definitely, okay?!)
"Do you want to eat?" Su Zhao was about to vomit, but Yu Xiaoxiao still asked him tactlessly.
The three guards looked at Gu Xinglang earnestly and said, "Please take care of your wife. What if our master gets tormented by the princess?"
Gu Xinglang pulled Yu Xiaoxiao's hand and changed the subject, "Should we go in and take a look?"
Yu Xiaoxiao nodded to Gu Xinglang and said to Su Zhao, "Being too clean is a disease and needs to be treated."
Su Zhaomu looked at Yu Xiaoxiao with a very handsome face and asked, "Who is sick between us?"
Yu Xiaoxiao followed Gu Xinglang down the stairs, and did not forget to scold Su Zhao to Gu Xinglang: "If he is like this, he will be fine after three days of starvation."
Gu Xinglang turned his head to look at the moss on the wall beside him. A centipede crawled out of the moss...
"Your Majesty, do you want to come in?" A young guard asked Su Zhao cautiously. The word "gloomy" was not enough to describe his master's face. It was like raining on his face.
Su Zhao took a step towards the door. If Princess Linglong and Gu Xinglang didn't mind the dirtiness, there was no reason for him to mind it.
The big boss came with a few former pirates at this time. When they saw the pond with no water at all, they were dumbfounded. He had been away for such a short while, and such a big pond had dried up? !
"What, what happened?" The boss ran into the pond and asked the guard.
"The princess did it with her flaming palm," said a young guard.
Boss..., when the hell did that guy learn how to use the Fire Palm?
A former pirate pointed at the tunnel entrance without a door and said, "Then my princess and her husband went in?"
The three guards nodded together.
"Go call the brothers," the big boss looked at the long stone steps in the tunnel and said to the former pirate standing on his left, "It looks like we have to fight again. Tell the brothers to bring all their weapons."
"Hey," the former pirate agreed to the boss and ran to the shore.
Su Zhao wanted to say, your princess said that there is no one in this tunnel, but before he could open his mouth, the man who ran past him had already jumped onto the shore and ran away like a wild dog with its anus dislocated.
"Princess! Prince Consort?!" The boss shouted into the tunnel at the top of his voice.
"What's the matter?" Yu Xiaoxiao's voice came from the other end of the stone steps.
The big boss said: "I brought my brothers down here."
Yu Xiao: "Let someone watch our money!"
The big boss muttered: "With a big Buddha like you here, what kind of thief would have to be so unlucky to run into us?"
One of the brothers said, "Big Brother, shall we go in?"
"Let's go," the boss led them down the stone steps.
After a while, the former pirates came running with weapons in their hands and rushed into the door in a mess. In the blink of an eye, the group of people disappeared on the long stone steps.
The three guards looked at each other, thinking, aren't they redundant?
Su Zhao rubbed his forehead. He needed to calm down. Those people in Fengtian were so domineering that they didn’t even give him the chance to speak! But they didn’t even give him the time to think!
A guard asked, "Are we the only ones in this big house?"
Su Zhao said unhappily: "There are still dozens of people fainted on the ground."
The guard stole a glance at Su Zhao's face and said, "So, what does the master mean?"
"I heard from the princess that if you go west from this manor, you will find a military camp of Fengtian," Su Zhao said to one of his guards, "Prince Consort Gu and his men are coming on horseback. Go borrow a horse and go to the military camp to report the news and ask the commander in the camp to come to support them."
The guard took the order and turned and ran away.
The remaining two guards asked Su Zhao: "Master, what about us?"
"Come with me and walk around this big house," Su Zhao walked towards the shore. With Princess Linglong here, he didn't have to worry about the group getting into danger. He was more interested in this big house now.
When the boss and his gang found Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang, the young couple were standing in a stone house with water seeping from the top of their heads.
The eldest master wiped the sweat off his head, looked at the empty stone house, and said, "Princess, Prince Consort, is there a hall in this house?"
Yu Xiao: "It smells of blood."
The bosses sniffed hard, but they didn't smell any blood. Instead, they smelled something that had been soaked in water for too long and had become moldy.
Yu Xiaoxiao walked to the wall on the right, tapped the wall with her bent fingers, and said, "This wall has been newly plastered."
"Really?" The boss couldn't figure out anything.
Yu Xiaoxiao slapped the wall.
The mud on the wall broke neatly and symmetrically into two halves and fell to the ground.
The stone house was very humid, and even when a whole piece of mud on the wall fell down, it did not stir up any dust. Only the wind brought by the fall caused the torches in the hands of the pirates in front to shake violently.
The boss took the torch from a brother, walked forward a few steps, and stood against the wall to light the way.
The wall covered by mud was actually covered with densely packed words.
Yu Xiaoxiao was immediately confused when she saw the traditional Chinese characters on the wall. She asked Gu Xinglang, "What is this? Did someone write a story on the wall? Or a spell or something?"
Gu Xinglang looked up at the wall in front of him and said, "It's a name."
"Ah?" Yu Xiaoxiao couldn't figure it out. Carve a wall of names? How boring must the people who carve names be? If they have the time, they might as well learn to paint from Guining! (Just let Guining go o(╯□╰)o)
The eldest boss said to Gu Xinglang, "It looks like a person's name, but why doesn't it have a surname?"
