Chapter 109 Accident

A deep voice came from the dark and smelly cave: "My lord, if you go up to this exit, it is the left side hall, the incident has been leaked, and maybe it is already full of officers and soldiers." ”

This is Dai Yubin talking, they have already touched a drainage outlet in the left side hall, extinguished the torch, and can only see a faint ray of light outside from the drainage opening.

Xi Ri Barri's voice was also low and gloomy: "We have no way out, life and death, success or failure, in one fell swoop." Xi Ri Goulig, where is the entrance to the secret passage? ”

Xi Rigoulig, who had been carried on his back by the tall and powerful Mauihan because of his physical exhaustion, tried to recall, and said: "There are three mechanisms to open the secret passages of the palace, and the three entrances are cleverly designed for different dangers, and this is the most accessible place through this drainage pipe. The old slave of this drainage pipe canal has not come down, I don't know what position it will be to climb up from here, if this is really the left side of the hall, after going up, you must identify the direction, the organ is at the gate of the main hall.

The old slave remembered that the opening mechanism of this secret passage was a stone sheep at the entrance of the second entrance of the left side hall, as long as the stone sheep was twisted in place for half a circle, it could be lifted upwards, and the stone sheep lifted up, and the entrance of the secret passage would be activated. The stone sheep and stone tiger or something, are much larger than the real thing, it is estimated that they have never moved, the mechanism design is extremely ingenious, if they have moved the stone sheep, if the method is not correct, it will not trigger the secret passage. ”

Dai Yubin said: "This is the palace, can King Yan renovate this place even more than our capital palace?" He won't make a big deal of construction here, Shiyang should still be there. ”

Xi Ri Bari gritted his teeth and said, "Everyone heard it? After climbing out, no matter how many officers and soldiers there are, we must desperately hold on as long as we find the stone sheep at the entrance of the second courtyard and open the secret passage smoothly, even if only one person climbs in, the gunpowder can be ignited.

Because of the hurry, it is impossible for anyone outside to answer, just in case, along the way, Xi Rigou Lige is explaining the structure of the secret road, everyone has a general understanding, as soon as they heard Xi Ri Bari's orders, everyone agreed, just because they deliberately lowered their voices, plus their faces were covered with towels, and their voices were a little muffled.

As soon as Xi Ri Ba Ri gave the order, they took off their anti-staining leather clothes and leather trousers, set up a human ladder, and climbed towards the drain, which was in a grass under the fence of the palace corridor, and above it was a square stone slab, which was carved with auspicious patterns, and many gaps were carved in the middle, so that the water flowed down, and filtered out the debris, the weight of the stone slab was only about 100 catties, these Mongolian warriors were all infinitely strong, and the first person to climb up tried to shake it for a while, and finally pushed the stone slab away.

Quietly probed out, the moon and stars were scarce, the surroundings were calm, lanterns were hung all over the palace, and occasionally one or two eunuchs and palace maids walked by quietly, that person was overjoyed, and whispered down with his mouth closed: "The Yan Wangfu is not yet on guard, we have a great chance." As he spoke, he took out the fly grab from his waist, buckled it to the edge of the drain, and lowered the rope......

A group of seven people crawled out of the drain and crawled in the grass, quietly observing the movement around them. Xi Rigou Lige squinted his old eyes and looked around, looking a little excited. After all, this is the place where he has lived since he was a child, most of the years of his life have been spent in this world, when Emperor Yuan Shun resigned from the temple in a panic, fled north to the capital, and hurriedly said goodbye for 30 years, he was about to enter the old man suddenly in this place again, the past is vivid, how can he not be full of emotion?

Xi Ri Bari didn't have as much emotion as him, Xi Ri Bari stared at a pair of bull's eyes and looked around, and asked quietly: "This fucking southeast and northwest is a little turned, Xi Ri Gou Lige, where is the courtyard you said?" ”

Xi Rigou Lige stretched out his finger tremblingly, pointed to the two red lanterns in front of him, and said in a hoarse voice: "My lord, it's at that door, the door is left...... It's a stone sheep, and on the right side of the door is a stone monkey, pull the mechanism, and the passage is in the ...... In the open space at the entrance of the palace, this mechanism was used to arrange for the emperor and his close guards to flee when the foreign enemy had surrounded the palace, so there are stone steps under the opening, and you can calmly enter the ......"

With a wave of his hand, the group rushed out, Lakshin had collected some weapons over the years and hid them in his residence, and originally wanted to wait until the time of action to distribute them, but now the men and horses in other places were killed and captured, and only those of them who came out of Lakshin's house wore weapons.

Under the cover of the shadows of the trees and flowers, they crept to the open palace gate, and looked out, and there was an empty flat ground outside, and several tall buildings in the distance were shrouded in the night. There is a stone sculpture on the left side of the door and under the shade of grass and trees on the right side of the door, which is very old, and the outline is faintly visible.

Dai Yubin was ecstatic: "God help me, it's a shame that we made a quick decision, and finally grabbed the front, hurry, act immediately." ”

A few people hurried over, some with knives and watched warily, and the others went straight to the left of the door, and then they knew why this organ was located in such a place, on the one hand, because the more inconspicuous the place, the safer, for no reason, no one would run into the palace and try to move a stone statue that had taken root and should not have been able to pull a single bit.

The main reason is that such institutions are built according to the standards of use for decades and centuries, and although the emperors want to live forever, they must face the reality that the empire will eventually fail, and leave a way out for future generations.

Such a way out, maybe after two or three generations, the world is peaceful, the children and grandchildren will not have the idea of being prepared for danger in times of peace, and will not pay attention to it at all, repair, so it must be built sturdy and durable, and the mechanism it opens is not easy to break, or often changes at will according to the emperor's personal preferences, such as a tea bowl on the bookshelf, a handrail on the dragon seat, such a small and delicate mechanism is bound to be difficult to last.

The stone sheep has not moved for thirty years, and it took a lot of effort to push it, and the three big men pushed and pulled two under the command of Xi Rigou Lige, and finally turned the stone sheep with all their strength, and then lifted it upwards with the strength of the two of them, and the front legs of the stone sheep were in the air, like a horse and a man standing and roaring.

The stone sheep was raised, but there was no abnormality on the ground, and Xiri Bari couldn't help but hurriedly said: "Xi Ri Golige, what's going on?" ”

Xi Rigou Lige smiled mysteriously: "Don't worry, my lord, this mechanism is opened once, closed once, I don't know how much effort it takes, only in this way can it be durable for a long time, please listen." ”

This book ~ tidying up w tidying up Xi Ri Bari closed his mouth, listened attentively, there seemed to be some faint movement, but he couldn't tell what it was, he was about to ask again, there was a rumbling sound behind him, Xi Ri Bari hurriedly turned his head to look, and saw that the flat ground was slightly raised.

It turns out that the power device used by this mechanism is a way to maintain an effective sand sinking method for thousands of years, lifting the stone sheep, pulling the mechanism, the quicksand begins to inject into the pipe, and then driving other devices with gravity, and finally using the lever principle to drive two huge stone pillars, thereby opening the channel.

Xiri Bari was surprised and delighted, and said in a trembling voice: "It's open, it's open, it's quick, enter the secret passage immediately"

Xi Ri Bari and Dai Yubin took the lead, rushing to the hole in the ground that had been raised half a man high and was still rising upward, and had just run a few steps, when there was a shout in the night, and the lanterns and torches on the top of the two palaces were lit up together, and countless torches were thrown out like a rain of stars, followed by a rain of arrows.

At the same time, sonorous footsteps sounded, and under the dark and dreary corners of the hall around the square, soldiers lined up in neat formations and dressed neatly suddenly appeared, like an iron wall standing on people, pressing down on them from three directions.

"It's not good to have an ambush"

Mauihan screamed, rolled on the spot, and crawled to the only life-saving channel, Dai Yubin and Xi Ri Bari moved faster, Dai Yubin also wanted to take Xi Ri Gou Lige, just reached out to grab him, a sharp arrow pierced his arm, so painful that he screamed, and hurriedly rolled away.

Hurriedly rolled forward three times, looked up again, Xi Rigou Lige was still standing there, the old eunuch was pierced through the abdomen by a throwing gun, the tip of the spear was against the ground, supporting his body not to fall, but the throwing gun was as thick as a chicken egg, and it was pierced through the chest like this, and it was obvious that he could not live.

The sharp arrows kept shooting on the stone floor, hitting the sparks all over the place, Dai Yubin couldn't care about anything else, and saw that Xi Ribazhi's last foot had just been retracted into the cave that had been raised, covering most of the arrow rain for him, and he hurriedly climbed over......

"Knort"

Another heavy throwing gun made of fine iron was projected, which could be able to shoot through the gap in the stone slab that staggered the ground, resisting the entrance of the secret passage that continued to open, and in the underground mechanism, the quicksand was still pouring into the mechanical pipe, and the exit was stuck by the throwing gun made of fine iron, and the stone door immediately made a squeaky and tooth-aching sound......

Xia Xun was locked in a side hall behind the main hall, it turned out that when this was still the palace of the Yuan Dynasty, this place was the place where the emperor temporarily retreated to drink tea and eat snacks and meet his henchmen to discuss things when he rested in the middle of the court.

The hall was very clean, and there were candles on the table, and Xia Xun was not treated as a prisoner. He sat behind the bookcase, anxiously awaiting news.

"Ha, you big liar, you actually told the truth. My brother-in-law will reward you heavily. ”

Ming'er, the little county lord in a white silk jacket, came in with a smile, waved his hand and said to the two guards: "Go out, don't look at him, this guy is indeed here to report the news, he has already caught him alive, and he has also obtained evidence of their illegality." ”

The two guards bowed down and agreed, but did not go out, but moved towards the door of the temple.

Ming'er jumped over, Xia Xun hurriedly stood up and bowed: "Xiaomin has seen the county lord." ”

Ming'er Xiaoyao snorted, wanting to make an angry appearance, but finally couldn't help laughing: "You big liar, you were lying to me last time, right?" ”

Xia Xun smiled bitterly: "County Lord, Xiao Min really didn't expect to see the County Lord again. ”

Ming'er narrowed her eyes and said, "Then you can lie to people?" ”

She tilted her head to think about it, and then asked, "So are the two stories you told me made up by you, or are they the real things you heard from others?" ”

Xia Xun smiled and said, "Is the county lord still interested in those two stories?" ”

As soon as he said this, the ground shook violently, Ming'er screamed, planted forward, was grabbed by Xia Xun, and said, "Be careful." At the same time, his hand was firmly grasped on the table.

Ming'er said in fear: "What's the matter, could it be that the earth dragon turned over?" ”

Xia Xun changed color and said: "I'm afraid that those Mongolian people have already ignited ......?" ”

Seeing this situation, the two guards were rushing towards them, Xia Xun didn't finish his words, the ground suddenly collapsed, and the feet of the two people were empty, and they fell to the ground together with the tables and chairs......
