Chapter 87: I'm a little tired
"Little Six, Third Uncle, get in the carriage, my people have been following, I know where he is!"
Ning Huaijun lifted the curtain.
Tang Yuanlu glanced at Ning Huaijun, hugged Xiaoliu and lifted his robe and got into the carriage.
All the way out of the city, this is a village, a row of houses, and the smoke of life.
As soon as the carriage entered the village, Tang Yuanlu lifted the curtains and happened to see a boy running in quickly.
There was a faint hint of something wrong in my heart, but I didn't think about what was wrong.
The carriage stopped outside a thatched hut, "Young master, my subordinates have been following, and that person entered the village and entered this house, but my subordinates didn't find anyone when they went in!" ”
Ning Huaijun's subordinates stood aside.
After Xiaoliu and they got out of the car, they looked at this village, which was no different from ordinary villages, and if they wanted to say that there was any difference, it might be that the people here were more energetic and dressed better.
"Let's go in and have a look!"
Tang Yuanlu held Xiao Liu with one hand, and took out the piccolo on his waist with the other hand and held it in his hand.
After entering, as the man said, there was no one inside, it was a room where ordinary farmers lived, a wooden bed, a table, and a few stools.
Tang Yuanlu looked at the house, the doors and windows were built in the direction they came in, and there were no doors and windows inside, if the subordinate was telling the truth, then ...... "Look to see if there are any mechanisms!" ”
"Organs? Is it the kind we have in our family? ”
Xiaoliu asked excitedly.
"Well, but be careful!"
Tang Yuanlu replied softly.
Xiaoliu excitedly began to knock on the wall and touch the stool...... There is a dark room in the old man's house, and every time Xiao Liu goes in, he will find that there is a new mechanism inside, so he dares to be interested and understands a little.
Tang Yuanlu noticed a bulge at the foot of the bed, and the toes touched, "click"
With a bang, a secret passage appeared in the middle of the bed.
And the wooden bed that I originally thought was actually a mechanism, not a wooden bed.
Tang Yuanlu's eyes were half-narrowed, and he snapped his fingers.
"Master!"
Two black-clad guards appeared behind him.
"Protect Miss! Let's go down! ”
Tang Yuanlu hugged Xiaoliu and walked down first.
The underground is said to be a secret passage, but it is better than a labyrinth, and every time I find the exit, I come out and see another farmer's house.
There were a lot of footprints in the tunnel, Xiao Liu was held by a secret guard, and if she had to go to the ground, Tang Yuanlu had to lead her: "Xiao Liu, don't run blindly, it's very dangerous here." ”
"Mmmm, I know, I can help the third uncle!"
Xiao Liu nodded, followed the example of the third uncle, and found something on the ground.
In fact, she didn't know what to look for, so she just followed along.
Tang Yuanlu shook his head helplessly, and suddenly saw something white on the ground.
When I picked it up, it looked like salt, and I licked it gently, "Phew!" ”
Spit it out, it's really salt! But how can there be salt here? And it is also the fine salt that only the rich can afford, unlike the coarse salt eaten by ordinary people, which is white and delicate, while most of the people eat yellow coarse salt with gravel.
"Third uncle, is it delicious?"
Xiaoliu swallowed his saliva, could it be that the third uncle came down to find something delicious? Tang Yuanlu patted her head: "It's not delicious, let's find a way out!" ”
"Not looking for anything to eat?"
Xiao Liu tilted his head.
"Well, Xiaoliu is hungry? Let's go home and eat something delicious! ”
Take her hand and walk forward.
One guard holds a torch in front and one in the rear.
But after a few turns, I didn't turn out, "What's the matter, we found the exit very easily just now, and now the exit is gone?" ”
Ning Huaijun frowned, he clearly remembered that there was an exit in this direction just now, but they were spinning! "Third uncle, look, there are still traces of what I caught when I was leaning against the wall just now!"
Ning Huaijun pointed to the place where he pinched off a piece of the wall.
Tang Yuanlu picked up a stone and drew on the ground: "We just entered from here, and judging from the exit we began to find, the bottom of this village has been hollowed out.
Actually, it's nothing, I've traveled a lot, and those people are digging tunnels underground to store food, but the village is connected to every house.
Now that we're trapped down again, it's supposed that someone from above has closed the passageway! ”
And why did he close the passage, it should be to transfer the salt he just saw on the ground! Now I remember, why the child ran back to the village in such a hurry, the general child is curious, especially this kind of person who has never seen the world, he will definitely get closer to see the carriage, but he didn't, and he ran away, which can only mean that he went to ventilate and report the news! This village is not simple! "So what do we do now?"
Xiao Liu looked around, there were roads everywhere, and she didn't know where she was.
"Although they closed the exit, there is more than one exit, looking at so many traces here, it is obvious that there are many people who have just come down, and they should have transferred things.
However, it's cramped, and they can't go fast, so they must be hiding somewhere, as long as we find them, we can get out! ”
Ning Huaijun calmly analyzed.
Tang Yuanlu couldn't help but glance at this kid more, yes, he actually had the illusion of seeing the second brother of the little sixth.
"You're right, but there's no need to be so troublesome, we don't know how big it is down here, walking around wastes our physical strength, not to mention, and they may be secretly attacked."
Tang Yuanlu drew on the ground, remembering the route he had walked after he came in, and threw away the stones and got up.
Tang Yuanlu drew on the ground, remembering the route he had walked after coming in, and threw away the stones.
"Come with me!"
led Xiaoliu and walked forward, turning left and right, and came to a dead end.
"What do you two think is the difference here?"
intends to take a test for Xiaoliu and Ning Huaijun.
Xiao Liu stepped forward and kicked his foot against the wall, "It's no different, huh?" ”
I also tried to knock on whether it was hollow, but unfortunately I didn't try it.
"No, it's not the same dead end here."
Knowing that Tang Yuanlu was going to test himself, Ning Huaijun took two steps forward and pointed to the ground.
"Look, there's no footprints here!"
"So that doesn't mean they haven't been here?"
Xiao Liu answered and thought about it.
"No, we just walked around, and there are footprints on the ground, it is impossible not to have them here, does that mean they did it on purpose?"
Xiao Liu looked at Ning Huaijun and waited for the answer.
Ning Huaijun nodded: "Yes, that's what it means, the more they cover up, the more problematic it is!" ”
"Third uncle, are we right? Isn't that the case? ”
Xiao Liu pulled the third uncle to ask for an answer.
"Well, you're very smart, this is actually where we first came down, but they changed it and made us ignore it."
Tang Yuanlu touched a rope buckle that was not easy to find.
Push the door open for the exit.
This is thanks to the fact that these people don't have much money, and there are dirt tunnels underneath, but there are vents to be set up in them, and he calculated, and the best place to perceive the air all the way will naturally find the exit.
"Wow, we're really out!"
Xiao Liu saw the white light and shouted excitedly.
When they came out and stood in the hut at the beginning, they found that it was already evening, and they had been wandering in it for a long time! "What do we do now?"
Ning Huaijun looked at Tang Yuanlu, he was a member of the Yamen, and it must be important to investigate the case, but according to himself, it was naturally important to save his life.
"Let's go back first, and then we'll send someone!"
Tang Yuanlu pushed open the door with Xiao Liu in his arms and found that their carriage was gone.
"This group of people has been prepared for a long time, everyone be careful!"
Tang Yuanlu led everyone out of the village.
Dark.
"Boss, don't we go up, wait for them to run away!"
A masked man looked deeply at the people who were slowly moving away, and especially glanced at Ning Huaijun a few times: "No need, let them go!" ”
"But they've already found out here, and if they don't kill us, we'll be exposed......"
"Killing one will expose you, and are you sure you can kill it? Do you think they are people, unprotected in the shadows? ”
"So what do we do?"
They are all in ambush, are they waiting in vain? "Withdraw, get everybody out of here."
"But there are still so many private salts, how can we take them away!"
"If you can't take it away, burn it alive, don't leave evidence and clues!"
The man turned in vain.
Standing in front of the big man who robbed Xiaoliu of their money, "What did I say?" Let you be cautious and don't expose yourselves, but you have brought people here! ”
"Boss, I didn't mean to, I just saw that they were so small and had so much money, I didn't think they were so big, I didn't kill anyone, I just robbed the money......"
The big man hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to admit his mistake, shouting.
Unfortunately, the man still plunged a sword into his chest, and at the moment he closed his eyes: "Wrong is wrong, it's too late to regret!" ”
"The tunnel was blown up, and the village was burned!"
…… Xiaoliu and they returned to the capital, and after Tang Yuanlu sent the people back to the house, he went to the criminal department and took the people to the village.
Xiaoliu and they returned to the capital, and after Tang Yuanlu sent the people back to the house, he went to the yamen and took the people to the village.
Ning Huaijun went back to the Zhenguo Mansion with Xiao Liu, Ning Huaijun was afraid that Xiao Liu would be frightened, and wanted to comfort her: "Xiao Liu, don't be afraid, today is a coincidence, we are already safe." ”
Xiao Liu casually pulled off the belt of his clothes: "I'm not afraid, with the third uncle here, he will protect me!" ”
Also, how can he compare with Lord Tang, he doesn't know martial arts, and the two people he brought are not as powerful as Lord Tang, Ning Huaijun lowered his eyelids.
"Little Six, Little Six ......"
A little fat man rushed out of the house and waved his hand at Xiao Liu.
"Little fat man? Why are you in my house? ”
Xiao Liu looked at Liu Xing running towards him and asked strangely.
"Didn't you say that the rescuers were moved to find a field? I went home and called someone, but I didn't find you, so I came to your house to wait for you, but your family said that you didn't come back, so I waited for you here! ”
"Does that mean you didn't want to find me at all? I almost died, and if I die, won't you save me? ”
Xiao Liu rolled his eyes and pushed him away and walked inside.
"Hey, no, how could I not save you? Wait, you said you almost died, what's going on? Tell me about it! I'll avenge you! ”
Liu Xing ran to her and stopped her.
"Forget it, I'm fine, you can go back first!"
Xiaoliu ran for a day and was a little tired.
Weakly went to his own yard.
"Hey, Little Six......"
Liu Xing wanted to follow, but was stopped by Ning Huaijun.
"Didn't you hear Xiaoliu tell you to go back? She's going to rest! ”
"What's the matter with you, you came back together, what happened, tell me quickly!"
Ning Huaijun ignored him, simply said to the subordinates of the Tang Mansion, and followed the subordinates to the outside of the mansion.
Liu Xing hurriedly followed and asked: "I said that you are talking about it, what are you pretending to be cold!" ”
The two children left the Zhenguo Mansion in such a fuss.
When Tang Yuanlu returned to the village with the people, everything had been burned down, and the people were gone, so he searched everywhere and found no clues, so he had to go home.
Xiaoliu washed up and was still getting dressed, and Yang Feifei was already there.
"Little Liu, are you okay today? I heard from the person at the door that you were a little embarrassed when you came back, were you hurt? ”
Pull Xiaoliu to check on her.
"Mother, I'm fine, I'm fine, you don't know, I'm excited today."
