Chapter Twenty-Three: A First Visit to the Protector's Mansion
On this day, Mo Yao gathered everyone together and asked Gao Qufan and Bai Mo to explore the Protector's Mansion first. In the middle www.biquge.info of the night, the two of them successfully infiltrated Xie Hou Mansion. The entire mansion looked very ordinary, all the way from the front hall to the backyard, and not even a ghost-faced Yin army was seen. Could it be that he has other places to live than this refuge?
Gao Qufan and Bai Mo saw that no one noticed them, and they became bold when they walked around. Every room was inspected and found nothing. Just as they were about to leave, they suddenly heard a strange movement from the firewood room in the backyard, so the two of them walked over.
They saw Xie Congwu coming out of the firewood room, looking in high spirits. Gao Qufan and Bai Mo became suspicious, he was a dignified first-class prince, how could he go in and out of his firewood room without incident.
The two of them got up on the side, and when Xie Congwu walked away, they cautiously approached the firewood room. Through the crack in the door, he didn't see anyone inside, so he pushed the door and walked in.
The room was cluttered, except for a few pieces of wood and straw in the corner, and a dilapidated bookshelf against the wall directly opposite the door.
The two of them looked around, and there was nothing special. But why did Xie Congwu come out of this firewood room so happily, and he had to close the door.
Bai Mo walked into the bookshelf, and there were a few broken bowls with cracks on them. It should be useless, with a pile of dust on it. Bai Mo glanced at it, no, why is one of them so clean and shiny.
She touched the bowl curiously, and just wanted to pick it up, but found that she couldn't take it down at all, so he called Gao Qufan, and the two of them moved the bookshelf out, but they didn't move, and the whole thing was connected to the wall.
"Is this a mechanism?" Bai Mo looked at Gao Qufan.
"You try spinning it."
Bai Mo listened to Gao Qufan's opinion, and spun the bowl with both hands. The two of them stared at the bowl intently, extremely nervous. Suddenly, there was a sound of "bang", and a dark passage appeared on the floor tiles in the center of the firewood room. Since their minds were on the bowl, they were really frightened by the noise.
Both of them went to the dark passage and looked down from above, and there was no bottom. The two looked at each other for a moment and decided to go down to see if Xie Congwu's secret was set in this place.
They cautiously descended all the way, and the stairs became wider and wider as they went. As the candle flame flickered, neither of them dared to make an extra sound. After a while, I came to the bottom, and at this time I could faintly hear the voice of someone talking. They walked a little further inside and found a large bronze door, which was ajar, and from time to time someone came out, it was none other than those wearing masks.
While they weren't looking, the two of them entered the bronze gate. I don't know if I don't come in, I was shocked when I came in, this whole thing is an underground palace, not inferior to the one in the imperial city at all. There are all kinds of dragon reliefs, but most of the building materials are high-grade black jade, so they look a little eerie, plus those ghost-faced yin army, how to look like the underworld.
The two of them touched the wall, this underground palace was very huge, and the two of them got lost, and they didn't know what was going on, and came to a stone room. It turned out that this stone chamber was a cell, and there were many people in it, most of whom were men. But what's wrong with these people, why do they all look weak, and they don't even react when the two of them walk by.
They looked at the people inside, and Gao Qufan grabbed Bai Mo, "Look, those are Penglai disciples." ”
Bai Mo followed the direction of Gao Qufan's finger, and sure enough, they were still wearing Penglai's robes. Gao Qufan and Bai Mo waved to those Penglai disciples, but the other party did not respond. Suddenly, the door of the stone room was opened, and the two of them, in a hurry, used spells to hide in the crowd, because in addition to these people, there was only a torture frame left.
I saw three ghost-faced people coming in, and one of them had a slightly different costume from the other two, and it was estimated that he was the leader. He ordered the other two people to come out of the prison and tie him to the torture rack, but the kidnapped man was still staring blank and unresponsive.
When the man was tied, the leader pulled out a transparent bottle from his chest, and there was something glowing inside. The ghost-faced man looked at the bottle and opened the lid at once. I saw that the glowing object inside came out of the bottle and entered his body through the seven orifices of the man who was tied to the torture rack.
It didn't take long for the man to wake up suddenly, his eyes black, his face distorted. At this time, the leader of the ghost-faced man took the other box, opened the box, took out a mask from it, and took it directly into the face of the person on the torture rack. In an instant, the iron fused with the flesh and blood, emitting a burst of burnt smell, and it turned out that this mask could not be taken off again after wearing it.
Bai Mo's heart was beating when he saw it, he really didn't expect that this Xie Congwu was so cruel as a person, he was not as good as a demon, he was simply crazy.
The man was untied, and at once he became theirs, and followed them out of the stone chamber. Now it seems that this Xie Congwu's ghost-faced Yin army came like this. What kind of witchcraft is this, Gao Qufan pondered. But Bai Mo roughly understood in his heart, because of this witchcraft Bai Ming would also, he must have taught this Xie Congwu.
When they walked away, Gao Qufan and Bai Mo came out of the stone room.
"It's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's go back and tell the master quickly." Gao Qufan said and walked towards the exit. I saw that the two of them were about to arrive at the bronze gate, and suddenly the entire underground imperial city was illuminated by torches.
"Since you're here, why don't you have a cup of tea and leave." This was Xie Congwu's voice, he stood high on the viewing platform, smiling with empty eyes. At this time, Gao Qufan and Bai Mo had been surrounded by a large number of Yin troops.
The two men leaned back against each other, observing the movement around them.
"Brother Longhui, brother, I have another big gift for you, and two disciples of Penglai, hahaha。。。。。。"
With Xie Congwu's laughter, another one-eyed man came out of the shadows. Bai Mo saw that it was Long Hui, how could he be here, could it be that the master sent him. Bai Mo was thinking about it, and it was obvious that Long Hui also recognized her.
Long Hui glared at the two of them with his one-eyed eyes, "Lock them up first, and then cramp them when I need them." ”
So those Yin troops surrounded them collectively, and because of their large numbers, Gao Qufan and Bai Mo were invincible and fell into their clutches. The two men were locked up separately.
Long Hui and Xie Congwu came to the cell where Bai Mo was being held, "Open the door." Xie Congwu felt very strange.
"She is Wu Zun's apprentice, Bai Mo." Bai Mo sat down on the stone bench angrily and took a sip of water.
"Since she is a disciple of Wuzun, why is she in Penglai?" Xie Congwu couldn't figure it out.
"General Xie, don't ask, there are some things that you shouldn't care about." Long Hui threw this sentence, and Xie Congwu didn't ask more.
"Let me ask you, did you do it when those Penglai disciples became like this?" Bai Mo suddenly stood up and walked in front of Long Hui and asked.
"I did it, why do you really want to help them avenge it." Long Hui smiled, "Okay, let's trouble Miss Bai Mo to stay here for a while, and then let you out after we kill the others." ”
As soon as Bai Mo heard this, they wanted to kill Yitian and them too, which was not good, but before Bai Mo could speak, Xie Congwu put her in a cell, and the two of them had already left.
"General Xie, the white girl inside is going to be well served, she and our Lord Wuzun are the same roots." Long Hui earnestly instructed Xie Congwu.
"The juniors know, what about the others?" Xie Congwu looked at Long Hui, thinking about it in his heart.
"If you release the news of the two of them being arrested, they will definitely throw themselves into the net, by the way, they must be captured alive, and I will kill one of them with my own hands." Long Hui touched the disappeared eye and said through gritted teeth.
"Okay, juniors get it."
。。。。。。
It was already dawn, and several people in the inn were anxiously waiting for whether something would happen, but no one dared to say it. At this time, Yitian suddenly jumped out.
"Don't wait any longer, something must have happened, I'll go and save them now." As he spoke, he walked out.
"Stop." Mo Yao scolded, "Even if something happens, will you get it?" ”
"Then are we going to give up?" Yitian also replied viciously to Mo Yao's words.
Liang Boyan saw that everyone was arguing, so he came out of the round, "Let's calm down first, don't we still know what happened, let's wait, wait after lunch, if they haven't come back, then let's discuss how to save people." ”
As he spoke, he pulled the angry Yitian back, and Rong Hua hurriedly helped pour water, "Come, drink water, and dissipate your anger." ”
Just as they were seated, suddenly a dark shadow flew by, and scored a small "ball" from the window, which was nailed right to the bedpost. Yitian just wanted to go out to chase, but was stopped by Liang Boyan, because it might be a trap, it is better for everyone to be cautious at this time.
Rong Hua walked to the side of the bed and took off the "ball", which turned out to be a piece of paper. Who is this person, and what a powerful skill he has, a piece of paper has cracked the bedpost.
Liang Boyan opened the paper and saw that it was written that Gao Qufan and Bai Mo were arrested, and Yitian couldn't hold it anymore.
