When the Su clan retreated, they did not hide the secret of the Su clan's ancestral hall. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The half-burned candlestick had already been twisted, the mechanism had already been opened, and the offering table that once held the tablets of the emperors of the Great Zhou Dynasty was now burned into a pile of scorched gravel by the fire, and only faint traces of the incense case could be seen.

Rows of ebony black lacquered shelves were burned to the ground, scattered on the ground, still spitting out unfinished tongues of fire. The secret room of the ancestral hall must have hidden the most precious thing of the Su family, but unfortunately it is impossible to find out the original situation now, which can only confirm Xiao Luochen's conjecture that day, and there is indeed another mystery in the Su family's ancestral hall.

There is nothing to check in the old mansion, and since it has not been gone for a long time, there must be traces to be found.

Xia Yuzhi ordered people to search carefully, and sure enough, clues were found outside the alley along the back door, but unfortunately the rain was too dense, and the traces of the ruts were disorganized, intermittent, and extremely difficult to identify.

Everyone was in high spirits, inquiring about the footprints and tracking all the way, and actually chased to the mountains behind Yuping.

At this time, the sky is nearly three watches, the sky seems to be torn open a big gap, the rain is getting denser and denser, and the mighty is like the Yellow River. The night was thick like splashing ink, and the rain was like a pour, so that people couldn't open their eyes.

Occasionally, a bolt of lightning rolled over with a rumbling thunder, and the nearby Yuping Mountain was like a dormant beast, spitting blood hideously. Songming torches were not used, Xia Yuzhi and the others could only try to identify the direction, looking at the people in front of them who were still shadowy and faint, and they were chasing after them.

The Su family was familiar with the terrain, and they went around and around, and disappeared far away in front of a winding mountain road. In front of it is a high mountain, and a waterfall rushes down. On the left is a deep pool of canyons, rumbling. There is only a muddy path on the right, which zigzags and zigzags and does not know where it leads.

Xia Yuzhi gritted his teeth, waved his hand behind him, and despite being covered in mud, he rushed straight to the path and tracked down.

When one party fled in a panic and the other party persevered in pursuit, Su Duhan and Su Guangfu took a few followers and quietly sneaked back to Cangnan under the cover of the rainy night.

There were still a few miles away from the Su family's old house, and Su Duhan suddenly saw a fire rising from the direction of the old house, reflecting half of the sky in the dark night. Knowing that something had happened to the old mansion, he called Mr. anxiously.

"Something happened, I can't go back to the old house", Su Guangfu was so distressed that he stomped his feet in place. They hurried all the way, still half a step slower than the speed of the Hidden Dragon Guard.

The two of them, wearing hats and robes, quietly touched the vicinity of the old mansion and secretly observed the movements around them.

There are torches and lights in the old house, and the voices of officers and soldiers talking from far and near can be faintly heard.

Seeing that the fire was coming from the direction of the ancestral hall, Su Duhan was even more anxious, and whispered in Su Guangfu's ear: "The ancestor's tablet is still inside, how can this be good." ”

Since the fire ignited from the direction of the ancestral hall, Su Guangfu was relieved.

This must be the Su family's own fire in order not to leave a handle, not the arson of the hidden dragon guard. In this way, everyone in the clan should be able to evacuate safely, and it did not fall into the hands of the Hidden Dragon Guard.

"Master, don't worry, everything is arranged", Su Guangfu wiped the rain on his face, and looked at the fire still spreading with complicated eyes, as if he saw the plaque of the Su family ancestral hall falling into the muddy water with a bang, and the hundred-year-old hope returned to dust, and his heart was suddenly infinitely sad.

It turned out that as soon as I turned around that day, I was close to the end of the world from the place where I had lived since I was a child. Su Guangfu, who has been killing people for many years and never sheds tears easily, feels that his eyes are wet, and he is fortunate to be mixed with the rain and has never been seen by others.

He took a deep breath, casually ripped off a soaked piece of black silk fabric on the hem of his shirt, and took advantage of the moment when Su was cold, wrapped a handful of soil near the Su family's old house, and solemnly held it in his arms.

"Let's go, go to the patriarch and they will meet, now the clan doesn't know what the chaos is like, let's go there earlier, they can rest assured earlier." ”

Su Guangfu couldn't hear any emotion in his calm voice, only through the rain twilight, there was a little more urn sound, Su Duhan responded in a deep voice, and several black figures disappeared into the pouring rain silently as when they came.

The ruts were chaotic, and there were traces of Songming torches, as if they were being tracked all the way, Su Guangfu was up and down in his heart, and he only asked the Bodhisattva to bless the Su clan people to be safe and sound.

Following the suspension bridges and ropes hidden among the vines in the back mountain of Yuping Mountain, Su Guangfu and Su Duhan arrived at the cave behind the waterfall at dawn.

The rain stopped for a while, but it was still dripping, and Su Duhan and the others were all wet, covered with muddy water, and looked embarrassed. The huge cave was warm and dry, and the tribesmen gathered here, and everything was in order.

There were several bonfires burning in the fire pit, some fresh beef and mutton were on top of them, noodles were boiling in a large pot, and several women were boiling water not far away, preparing to make tea for everyone.

All the Su clan members gathered here, and although they were in a hurry last night, Su Duran tried his best to bring the last group of people into the cave safely before Xia Yuzhi.

Seeing that Su Guangfu and Su Duhan were safe and sound, the patriarch was full of joy. Su Guangfu saw that the whole clan had gathered here, and a big stone finally landed, and he tightly grasped the big rough hand of the patriarch, and was speechless for a long time.

After a few words of greeting with each other, some clansmen took the wet clothes on Su Guangfu and Su Duhan's bodies, roasted them by the fire, and others handed them clean hand towels and told them to wipe their faces first.

A few people sat in front of the rattan table and chairs on the side, Su Guangfu couldn't help but be hungry, put aside the noodles brought by the clansmen, and asked the patriarch about the matter.

The patriarch sighed and told the matter of how Qianlong Wei took people in the starry night of Cangnan, but fortunately, the Su family had already made arrangements, and the ancestral tablet had already been invited to the mountain. Regardless of the danger, Su Duran personally met the last group of clansmen, threw Xia Yuzhi's pursuers away, and then followed the rope back to the cave.

The century-old foundation was destroyed in one fell swoop, and the things that could not be moved away could only be burned, so that Qianlong Wei could not find clues. Su Duran opened the secret room of the ancestral hall with his own hands and lit the first fire from there.

Doing things is really neat, as if he is the best of the next generation. Su Guangfu looked at Su Duran, gave a thumbs up appreciatively, and praised: "Good boy, worthy of being a descendant of my Su family." ”

Su Duran smiled innocently, looking like a man as simple as a green grass in the mountains, but he had a cold and hard heart.

He threw his hand at the two of them and said directly: "On the contrary, Jiangyin has been operating for several years, and now it has lost most of it, and when the Qianlongwei is cleaned, the layout of decades will be empty." ”

Countless pairs of eyes looked at Su Duhan, countless pictures intertwined in Su Duhan's eyes, and finally all converged into the red blood on the Jinluan Palace, Yuan Fei's tall body fell down with a bang, and the blood under his body flowed like a river.
