Chapter 390: The True Face of Lushan (I)
"It's me, Ah Jin. Yun Hua's voice rushed into the sea of knowledge.
"This is where those women are being held, and in a while, I will enter the Chengkun Palace, and you and I will each wait for the opportunity to act. You have to be careful. ”
"I will. The national teacher has not shown up so far, so you should be very careful. Yun Hua said worriedly: "If there is anything unusual, it will be summoned to me!"
"Good. Jinhuang replied to him, turned around and said to Liuyu: "It's okay, it's me who is too worried." ”
Liuyu nodded with relief, embedded the jade bi into the gravure seal, paused a few breaths, and the rockery in front of him suddenly began to move slowly from left to right, revealing the entrance of the cave that was one person high, and there was fire shining from below.
Liuyu was in front, Jinhuang was behind, and the two slowly walked into the hole.
The stairs slope from top to bottom, about a foot deep, and the terrain begins to become gentle.
The passage in the cave is very narrow, allowing only one person to advance, and there is a torch embedded in the high position above the head on the left side of the passage every ten steps, which illuminates the passage transparently, and it seems that the lantern in Liuyu's hand is a little redundant.
The cave was unmanned, and the two of them had not walked much deeper, and the cave suddenly became open, revealing the well-groomed cells hidden inside. The cells were made of iron and were arranged on the left and right sides of the boxy area, extending into the depths of the cavern. At a cursory glance, there are more than 20 seats. In each of them, four or five women were imprisoned, the same ones who had been selected as nobles.
The arrival of Jinhuang and Liuyu alarmed the women in the cell, and their faces invariably showed strong fear and desire to survive.
"Let us go!" the cry of one person for mercy alarmed the others, and the cell instantly resounded with shouts one after another.
"Please, let us go. ”
"Please, two sons, please. ”
"Let us go. ”
“……”
Jinhuang's heart swelled with unbearable. These women are all as old as flowers, and if it weren't for the conspiracy of the Star Picking Pavilion, they wouldn't have fallen into such a situation at all. If she and Yun Hua hadn't discovered the strangeness, I don't know when this pickled thing would have been discovered.
Liuyu opened one of the cells and grabbed a woman from each of his left and right hands. This move immediately aroused a burst of hysterical wails, which lasted in the cave for a long time.
"Don't! Don't kill me! Please, don't kill me!"
"Please!ahh
“……”
The two women struggled desperately, and the fear of death provoked a fierce resistance against them, so strong that they almost tore him over, and he was embarrassed.
"Senior brother!" Liuyu suppressed the two of them in embarrassment, while taking the time to look at Jinhuang for help.
At this time, it was not yet time to be exposed, so Jinhuang stepped forward and slashed at the necks of the two with a knife in his hand, and the two of them fainted when their heads tilted.
Liuyu was happy, handed over one of them to her, and each of them captured a girl, as when he came, he walked out of the cave one after the other, and then followed the road of coming, and soon returned to the Chengkun Palace.
Chengkun Palace, as Jinhuang had predicted before, had a lot of elaborate secret sentinels inside, one ring after another. If an unfamiliar person breaks in, it is difficult to avoid it completely without alarming them. She followed Liuzhen's footsteps while secretly jotting down the surrounding layouts.
The two went up to the fifth floor, the top floor of the Chengkun Palace, that is, the residence of the national teacher who had "only heard of his name but not his face".
The slave was already waiting there, and when he saw the two of them picking up the steps, he quickly stepped forward and said respectfully: "Lord Feng Xi, everything is ready. Your Excellency is waiting for you in the room. ”
"Hmm. Jin Huang nodded expressionlessly, and said to the two of them in a deep voice: "You all stand down, you can't be disturbed without my summons!"
The last time the national teacher had an accident, he was also served by Feng Shi closely, so Liuyu and Nu'er didn't have the slightest suspicion, and after nodding their heads, they retreated one after another.
Jinhuang listened to the footsteps of the two of them going down layer by layer, shook the two women under his arms, and walked slowly towards the inside. The more you go inside, the stronger the fishy sweetness that has been there since stepping into the Chengkun Palace. The only difference is that the first floor is the lightest, and as the floor goes up, it becomes more intense, until the fifth floor is the most pungent.
Anyone who has been stained with blood will be familiar with this smell, this is the smell of human blood.
In the past, she used the wind-catching spider to hide on Feng Lian's body to enter the Chengkun Palace, and she could only see the scene in the spider's vision, but she couldn't smell the smell. But I never thought that this whole attic was filled with the smell of blood!
When Jinhuang stood at the door, she couldn't distinguish any other smell in her nose except for the smell of blood. It can be seen that in the room in front of me, I don't know how many sins have been committed, and I don't know how many women have been poisoned in it, which can cause such a disgusting smell!
"Lonely?" At this moment, a weak, old and twilight voice came from the room.
The voice was a little sharp and harsh, it seemed to be a male voice, but it was sandwiched between a female voice, and there seemed to be more than one female voice, like there were five or six or even more. These voices mingled together, becoming hoarse and rough, burrowing into the ears as if scraping into the sockets of a person's ear, and the harshness was even more harsh.
The voice was both familiar and unfamiliar, similar to what it had heard when using the Wind Catcher before, but tonight it seemed to be more old and weak, and more hoarse and harsh. However, in this room, there can be no one else except the "national teacher". Therefore, it can only be the person of the "national teacher", as for why it is different before and after, it is probably related to what happened tonight.
Jin Huang thought secretly in his heart, frowned on his face, and replied in a tone that imitated Feng Shi: "It's a disciple." With that, he slammed the door sideways and walked in.
"Can you bring anyone?" the voice came from behind the curtain hanging in mid-air, and the urgency and greed in the words came out.
Jinhuang's gaze swept over the curtains and landed on the screens in front of him in some order. These two things had been secretly studied by her since she first saw them through the Wind Catcher. The direction in which the curtain fell, and the position in which the screen was placed, together with the embroidered patterns on them, constituted some kind of evil and ancient circle.
This feeling reached its peak when I saw it with my own eyes at this moment.
She could feel the darkness, the wickedness, and the power coming out of above. Although she didn't know what kind of magic circle this was, she was sure that it would have something to do with the unjust death of those Yuan Girls!
Jinhuang was secretly vigilant, and replied: "Yes, the disciple brought people." ”
As soon as the words fell, the voice couldn't wait to say, "Quick! ”
"Yes. Jinhuang's eyes were dark, he pursed his lips, and walked in the direction of the source of the sound with two women. After bypassing the two layers of curtains and triple screens, he never showed his true face, and he was the "National Teacher" who had never seen his true face with a wind-catching spider, and finally revealed the true face of Lushan!
