In Chen's inner palace, there is a place dedicated to punishing concubines who make mistakes or crimes, called the "Supervision Division". Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

From top to bottom, the superintendent was specially trained eunuchs, and the method of punishment for their concubines was all kinds of torture.

It is said that when those people were executed, the methods were strange and outrageous, and the more beautiful the concubines, the more inhuman torture they received. And the people who can still come out alive after entering the Supervision Division can no longer be called human, they can only be said to have barely generated humanoid monsters.

Inexplicably, Luo Concubine's broken face and the way she walked twisted suddenly crashed into Qin Su's mind.

Qin Su couldn't help but feel furious, and a slight sweat broke out on his forehead.

At this moment, she already had some belief that the person who hated the Qin family deeply was likely to come from Chen Guo's harem. Such a method of cutting meat with a thin knife, except for those palace people with mutated minds, others can't do it.

It seems that after she goes back, she will have to think about the current concubines of Emperor Zhongyuan to see if she can find some clues from them.

Qin Su sat in front of the window, looking at the rows of green trees that swept past the window, and he was distracted.

The sound of cicadas resounded all the way. The official road is lined with neat cypress and poplar trees, and the green leaves reflect the blue sky, which is verdant and moving.

The sun was already slightly westerly, and the golden sunlight fell on the official road, shining brightly. Fortunately, once the summer in the north is past the afternoon, it will become cooler, and there will be more vehicles coming and going on the official road, which is not as desolate as when Qin Su entered the city.

When there was still a lot of land away from Xiaozaozhuang, Qin Su got out of the car.

The place where she got off the bus was several miles away from the exit of the Secret Path, and because she didn't want anyone to see through her whereabouts, she was willing to work her legs and make more detours.

The weather was still a little hot, Qin Su wiped his sweat and left the official road, and walked on the mud path stepped by the villagers, walking neither hurriedly nor slowly.

The hood had been torn off by her, and it was used as a fan to fan the wind, occasionally to shade the sun, and the road was inaccessible, and if she still wore the hood when she arrived, it would be eye-catching.

The wind was a little stronger, and the dust on the dirt road was raised high, and after walking for a while, Qin Su was covered with ash on his face.

She raised her sleeves and fluttered the dust, looked around, carefully sensed the movement around her, and when she was sure that there was no one around, she dodged and turned into a poplar forest.

The land temple is in the depths of this woods, because it has been in disrepair for a long time, the incense has long been cut off, and the villagers of Xiaozaozhuang never go there, so Qin Su has walked very smoothly this way, and he has not even seen a figure.

The land temple has fallen into disarray, the big characters on the lintel have long been blurred, but the statue of the land father-in-law in the temple is still there, and under the pedestal of the statue, is the exit of the secret path.

Qin Su looked around in front of the temple, then went around the back of the statue, bent down slightly, and pressed the yellow clay siding of the pedestal to make a clever mention, and the yellow siding was lifted up in its entirety, revealing another gray wall below, and there was a keyhole on the wall that was not very obvious.

She took out a palm-sized key from her sleeve, inserted it into the keyhole and turned it twice, and there was a "click" sound in the gray wall, and when the gray wall was pushed away, a hole could be seen behind it, and the stone steps under the hole were faintly visible.

Qin Su carefully picked up the yellow clay board that had been removed before, embedded it in the top of the gray wall, and pressed it firmly. These two wall panels are one virtual and one real, and the function of the yellow mud wall is to cover the gray wall with keyholes.

After the yellow clay slab was tightly embedded, Qin Sufang retreated backwards into the secret path, and after stepping down the two-level stone steps, he reached out and pulled the iron ring on the inside of the gray wall, covered the door of the entrance, and then fastened the iron bolt on the door.

The most ingenious part of this secret path is the two trap locks at the exit and entrance. The lock at the entrance is a pull ring, one inside and one outside, which can be opened when entering and exiting, and it is closed tightly.

The mechanism lock at the exit is more ingenious, the outer lock hole needs to be opened and closed with a key, but from the inside it is closed with a plug bolt, its precision and ingenuity are actually the only ones Qin Su has seen in his life. Even if she later entered the Chen Inner Palace, the most clever craftsman in the palace could not make such an ingenious lock.

It is said that these two locks are made by the descendants of the Mo family, and I don't know if they are true or false.

Qin Su walked slowly down the stone steps, looking around at this secret path.

The secret path is extremely narrow, only allowing two people to walk side by side, and the left and right walls are embedded with luminous stones, which can be seen far away, and in addition, every hundred steps, a round hole will appear in the wall that is a foot square.

According to Emperor Zhongyuan, these round holes are wind holes, and with these wind holes, you won't be depressed when you walk in the secret path.

Qin Su looked up at the black pores, and felt some emotion in his heart.

Chiseled open the belly of the mountain, dug out a secret passage, and designed it so exquisitely, it seems that in order to build this life-saving road, King Jing of the year should have spent a lot of money.

It's a pity that before he could use this secret path, he was forced to kill himself by the first emperor, but in the end, he cheapened Qin Su, a latecomer.

Qin Su bent his eyes and stopped at the foot of the stone steps.

The staircase had come to an end, and beyond it was an upward slope under which she had hidden something.

She groped on the ground for a while, and soon found a burden, in which was the clothes of a very inconspicuous handyman, a green cloth dress, a dark cloth belt, and a small mustache in the Yanxia Pavilion, all of which were dressed like this.

This dress was exchanged by Qin Su and others, and as for the set of clothes of the Shu boy, it was prepared by Ah Kui. Today, when Qin Su stole into the secret path from the broken wall, he pretended to be the Qin family's miscellaneous servant and left the Yanxia Pavilion.

While thinking in her heart, she quickly changed her clothes, wrapped the men's clothes in her baggage, and hid them at the bottom of the stone steps, and then walked forward quickly.

In the middle of the path, the glow-in-the-dark stone emitted the light of green fireflies, illuminating the wall as a gloomy green.

After walking forward for about a stick of incense, you can see a corner in front of you. From here, walk for about two quarters of an hour until you reach the exit.

However, the light on this section of the road was not as good as Fang Cai, some of the luminous stones on the wall no longer glowed, and Qin Su's speed was much slower.

Fortunately, she had walked this road a few times, and she was quite familiar with it, so she simply closed her eyes and walked forward against the wall.

It's not that she's holding it up, it's really the miserable green light, it's really a little terrifying, Rao is Qin Su is not small, and he feels panicked after watching it for a long time.

After all, this secret path is extremely narrow, and the ground is flat, so there is no danger of touching anything. (To be continued.) )
