In the early morning of the next day, Shang Xiucai came to the county government to report, Xu Wenbin was happy to see Master Shang, and hurriedly invited him to the study and told Master Shang everything that happened at night, Master Shang was not surprised when he heard it.

"Master, do you say this Baixian Order is a human or a ghost? Could what he said be true? Xu Wenbin asked.

"True and false, false and true, maybe there is another reason for this." Master Shang said.

"Master, you see, this is a strip of cloth left by the Bai County Order, with the five elements of gossip and twelve phases written on it, and the top of the flower feather is also painted, I don't know what the mystery is?" Xu Wenbin said.

Master Shang took the strip of cloth and looked at it carefully, as if he had an understanding.

"Master, you are a local, can you understand the meaning?" Xu Wenbin asked.

"In my opinion, the five elements refer to the five elements of blackness, the gossip may refer to the gossip door, and as for the twelve phases, it may refer to the twelve people representing the twelve zodiac signs. Meizhou County Ya used to have 12 catches named after the 12 zodiac signs, such as Jiachen, Bingwu, Gengshen, Xinyou and so on. Master Shang pondered for a moment and said.

"The Zodiac Named Catcher? Could it be that Xin Liu and the others are? Who are they? Didn't participate in the Meizhou bloody case either? Why did they return to the Yamen? What is the purpose? Xu Wenbin was thinking in his heart.

"My lord, these official products with flower feathers are different, it can be seen that there is a first-grade official, as well as a second-grade and third-grade officials, and the lowest is also a seven-grade county order, I don't understand, Baicangshan is a seven-grade county order, why did he involve himself? Could it be that it is not Bai Xian Ling who is pretending to be a ghost, but someone else? Master Shang wondered.

"Maybe there's something else going on. Bai Cangshan asked me to clean up the ruins and rescue him, are his bones pressed in the rubble? Xu Wenbin was puzzled.

"It's better to believe it than not, my lord, without further ado, let's go clean up the ruins immediately." Master Shang said.

Xu Wenbin then called Xu Fu, Xin Liu and others and asked them to clean up the ruins immediately.

Xu Wenbin and Master Shang stood by the side, and the two of them looked around, looking for clues.

Xu Fu and the catchers cleaned up the ruins, tired and sweaty, in order to clean up the broken bricks and tiles as soon as possible, more than a dozen people did not stop for a moment.

From morning to afternoon, the ruins were almost cleared, and suddenly, Xu Fu exclaimed in surprise: "My lord, come and see, there is a cellar here." ”

When Xu Wenbin heard this, he immediately came to his senses, and his monk master immediately rushed over, and when he got closer, he saw a black hole in the corner of the wall, surrounded by broken bricks.

"Xu Fu, hurry up and prepare torches, Xin Liu, you guys quickly clean up the bricks and tiles at the entrance of the cave." Xu Wenbin commanded.

Xu Fu prepared the torches, and Xin Liu and the others cleaned up the area around the entrance of the cave.

After a while, Xu Fu came with a torch, and Xu Wenbin took the torch and was the first to enter the cellar. Master Shang followed behind Xu Wenbin, and Xu Fu, Xin Liu and others also entered the cellar one after another.

The cellar is very narrow, and only one person can be allowed to enter it with a cat's waist, Xu Wenbin can't care so much, he hunched over and walked while checking the footprints in the cellar. The footprints in the cellar are obvious, large and small, deep and shallow, and not chaotic. After walking about fifteen meters, I walked to the end of the cellar. Xu Wenbin looked around, but there was no other passage.

"Is that the end of it? Impossible? There is nothing in the cellar, why is Bai County digging the cellar? What's going on with these footprints? Xu Wenbin was puzzled.

"Lord Xu, will there be a secret passage around? Now that you're in, look carefully, maybe there's a button. Master Shang said.

Xu Wenbin felt quite reasonable, he looked at the direction of the footprints, stood up to look at the cave wall of the cellar, and when he looked at his dragon head mark, his heart was happy.

"Found it, Master Shang, come and see, there's a dragon head mark here." Xu Wenbin shouted excitedly.

"Not bad! That's the button. Master Shang said.

Xu Wenbin was about to activate the button, but Xin Liu stepped forward and shouted, "My lord, be careful of the hidden weapon, let me come." ”

Xin Liu stepped forward quickly and shouted, "Everyone get down." After saying that, the left three and right four started the button, only to hear a 'bang' sound of the dark grid opened, Xin Liu flashed to the side, and at this moment, a burst of random arrows came.

"Alright, it's okay." Xin Liu said.

Xu Wenbin stood up and saw that there was a very spacious dark room in front of him, which could accommodate twenty or thirty people, and there were tables, chairs and benches in the dark room, just like a living room.

Xu Wenbin walked into the dark room, looked up, and saw a beam of sunlight slanting in.

"Look, my lord, there's a ladder." Xu Fu exclaimed in surprise.

"Xu Fu, go up and have a look." Xu Wenbin said.

Xu Fu climbed up the ladder, looked at it, and said, "My lord, there is also a ruin around here. ”

"Don't look at it, the ruins above must be a warehouse where official silver is stored. I have worked in the yamen for more than ten years, and this position should be it. Xin Liu said.

Xu Wenbin was shocked and asked, "Xin Zhutou, do you think these official silver are transferred underground from here?" And then transported from the ground? ”

"I guess so! It's just—" Xin Liu wanted to speak and stopped.

"Needless to say, there must be a secret passage to transport official silver underground." Xu Wenbin said.

"Maybe." Xin Liu was not sure.

"Xu Fu, come down!" Xu Wenbin shouted.

Xu Fu went down the ladder and moved it away. At this moment, a miracle occurred, and I saw a hole open on the side of the dark room, and a wide and long secret passage appeared in front of me.

Xu Wenbin hurriedly stepped forward to inspect, only to see disorganized footprints and rut marks on the ground. The rut left a deep trace, and at a glance it was an underground passage for transporting official silver.

"Let's go, see if there's the burned village ahead." Xu Wenbin said and walked ahead.

This passage is almost a kilometer, and it took a meal to get out of the underground passage. Out of the underground passage, Xu Wenbin looked at the sky, it was almost dusk.

"Not bad! This is the village that burned down a few days ago, and none of the dozens of people in the village were spared, which is really inhumane. Master Shang said.

"This is the scene of the crime, maybe leave a clue, it's getting late today, it's better to come back to the scene tomorrow to investigate, it's just - we've already arrived here, how can we give up halfway?" Xu Wenbin couldn't make up his mind.

"My lord, I have a great idea to kill two birds with one stone." Master Shang said mysteriously.
