Chapter 24: Evacuation and Speculation
The people who heard another loud noise hurriedly ran out, and this time the village chief organized people to pass the news from house to house and hurriedly go to take refuge! This time the refuge was not temporary, but they wanted to abandon the village and flee!
The people who got the news hurriedly cleaned up, and the Jinyi family was naturally no exception, there was nothing very valuable, but the necessary silver money was to be brought, and the Jinyi mother also brought food and other things, and then stopped Qingjun and Yi Qianqian who were going to run out, and in the backyard, a large stone slab was lifted together, revealing a long staircase, and there was no end to it when it went deep into the ground.

The brocade lady walked in front of the doll, Qingjun and Yi Qianqian glanced at each other, and then walked to follow, not a quarter of an hour, a rumbling sound began to come from the top of the head, and then there was a loud noise at the entrance, Qingjun turned around and looked, the faint bright spots that could still be seen were now completely invisible.
"Don't make a sound, don't worry, don't look back, just keep walking. The brocade lady walked straight in front and suddenly said lightly. This day of fear has come againγγγγγγ
Qingjun answered, and continued to follow the passage, and then he found that the passage was getting darker and darker, and it was getting narrower and narrower, and finally, he was completely on the mechanical steps up and down the steps, and so on, and so on, during which he could still hear the distant and ethereal whispers in his ears, as for the sender, Qingjun thought that it was definitely not a human being, and in the complete darkness Qingjun could only rely on the feeling under his feet to walk, he tried to use the spiritual sense to find the way, but it didn't work at all, if you use the spiritual sense, this space is simply a void, in other words, this space does not existIf not, where is he now?
For a long time, Qingjun thought that he had gone for a day, a month, a year, a lifetime, but it was not yet on the verge of collapse that he felt collapsed, and those voices would appear every once in a while, but there was no harm, it just made people feel uncomfortable and made people feel extremely cold.
Qingjun couldn't help but think that he was still in front of him, and the doll still had Yi Qianqi? Or were they still there? He didn't call them out loud, because he still remembered the words of the Jinyi mother, after all, such a retreat should be the first to comfort according to the usual habit of the Jinyi mother, but she didn't, it was rare to say such a sentence with an implied warning, so he had to pay attention to it.
It's also strange to say, just when Qing Jun was secretly wondering what the words of the brocade lady were implying to him, he suddenly found that there was light in front of him, although there was only a faint beam, and there was a figure within the light range, Qing Jun carefully calculated that there were more under the stairs than up, and there were tens of thousands of steps on a stretch of road, how deep should this be, how could there be natural light! And the figure in front of him was obviously not the size of their group, as he got closer and closer, the dagger on his waist was slowly pulled out, the figure suddenly moved, and walked straight into the wall under his gaze, Qingjun had no intention of going to find out, because he still remembered the sentence of walking forward, holding the dagger and walking without squinting to the place where the figure had stood, except for the afterglow glimpsed two blood-colored shoe prints, nothing else was abnormal.
Not long after, it seemed to be at the end, there was a straight staircase, continue to walk up, the brighter and brighter it became, and finally saw the brocade lady, the doll and Yi Qianqian at the end.
"Now that the people are safe and sound, and all of them are here, then I am relieved. Jinyi Niang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw Qingjun come to her.
"Auntie, is there any mystery in this passage?" Qingjun asked with a frown.
"We passed through the tomb of the ancestors of the Zhang family, which is a road of a thousand tombs. Jinyi Niang said helplessly, "You can forget everything you see, we disturbed the rest of the ancestors, and besides, you are not the Zhang family." β
"It's that we are too abrupt, but fortunately, the ancestors of the Zhang family did not blame. Rejoicing. Qingjun didn't say anything, but Yi Qianqian on the side sighed with emotion, said, and saluted with fists in the direction of the passage.
Jinyi Niang patted the doll's little head and said, "The last time you came here, you were in a mess, but this time you are fine." As he spoke, he pushed open a stone door not far away, and walked out with the doll in tow.
If the brocade clothes are there, they must have recognized it, this is the cave where the tablet and the merit monument were placed when the ancestors were worshipped, and this stone gate is part of one of the merit monuments.
Qing Jun and Yi Qianqi, who followed closely behind, felt a great coercion as soon as they came out, and they would fall to their knees as soon as they relaxed slightly.
"There should be a big man here. Both of them thought at the same time.
But the coercion came and went quickly, and the two of them felt that the big man did not mean to make things difficult, but the symbolic temptation passed.
"Come with me here, there's another passage here. "The brocade lady walked in front of the tablet with the doll and two people, Qingjun and Yi Qianqian stopped at the same time, just in front of the tablet covered with red cloth, both of them stopped for a reason, Qingjun was purely because he felt that the tablet was very weird, and Yi Qianqian made a little spell in addition to feeling weird, and then he saw the words on the tablet, "I don't think I can do anything" Yi Qianqian was naturally not stupid enough to think that it was the name on the tablet, and after seeing it, he hurriedly pulled Qingjun, who was still stunned, to follow the footsteps of the brocade lady and enter another passage.
Qingjun was pulled by Yi Qian, and couldn't help but think of the lost soul of Jinyi that day, could it be that Jinyi was also because of this tablet? Or did she not only see the tablet but also saw who the owner of the tablet was? Thinking of this, Qingjun inexplicably felt a chill down her spine, so she didn't continue to think about it.
This passage is much brighter than the one that came, the stone wall is inlaid with ordinary goblins for lighting, there are no up and down steps, but it is not ordinary, it seems to be straight forward flat forward bluestone pavement, you will feel how fast you walk it is also helping to move forward, so, this place, this road is alive.
The two people who noticed the mystery couldn't help but think deeply, seeing that the brocade lady was not in a hurry and did not feel a little nervous along the way, and the Zhang family was by no means so simple, it can be seen by looking at this ancestral shrine.
Pushing it to the village, the village chief did not say that he would flee together, so it should be possible to make such an assumption, that is, every family has such an escape secret passage!
Besides, why are there secret passages? Residents in small mountain villages should live a life of sunrise and sunset, and there are no enemies to speak of, and it will certainly take a long time to build such a secret passage, not to mention, and it will also consume a lot of labor and financial resources. So, what was such a secret passage built for? Was it foreseen or was it for the purpose of escaping? Or was it that these people had fled and built the secret passage to relocate again? However, there are some things that make no sense here. Or maybe there's something else going onγγγγγγ
