Chapter 45: Talking about old things

The golden light was shining, and the walls were dyed golden with candles, and in the small secret room, more than ten rows of gold bricks stacked more than one person high were neatly placed.

"I'll kill you at the bottom of the lake." The ghost retracted his sword, and the gaze on his mask was still cold to the bone. "I didn't expect you to be able to find out so far, it seems that you already know the dwarf of Da Sima."

"Who are you?!" Da Sima couldn't believe that there was a third person in this underground palace besides him, and before Feng Ying could speak, he rushed to ask questions first. You must know that before, even Mu Ying was only the tip of the iceberg of the secret room of Xianshi Pharmaceutical at most. "There are many traps in the dungeon, why are you here unscathed? You have to know the blueprint of this dungeon, except for me and..."

"Li Jiancheng?" You Jike said coldly, his eyes moved away from the dozens of rows of gold bricks neatly placed on both sides, and he looked down at Da Sima Dao: "Do you think you are the only one who is Li Jiancheng's henchman?" A short man who is no more than waist length, doesn't he have any points in his heart? ”

"You!" Da Sima hated it most in his life when others made fun of his height, and at that time, he followed Prince Jiancheng, except for the prince who treated him as his own brother, everyone else always whispered when they saw him. This is also one of the reasons why he will chase after the prince with all his heart. Now that he was suddenly teased by this stranger about his height, Da Sima couldn't help but feel angry in his heart in an instant, and he waved his hand to rush forward desperately. Feng Ying saw that Da Sima was about to make a move, so he hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him, pulled Da Sima behind him, looked up and asked, "How do you know that I am here?" ”

"The night before yesterday, I went to Dou Mansion to look for you but didn't see you, and I found out that you have not heard from you for a few days, and I saw that the lake in the backyard was turbid, so I knew that something happened to the secret room below, and the entrance had been destroyed, if you were lucky enough to run into this dwarf underground, you must go out by this road, so I waited here." Yu Jike said, glancing at the stone shrunk in the corner: "Who is this person?" ”

"This is my friend." Li Fengying saw that he was quiet and asked, and hurriedly ran over to help the stone up and said: "He was imprisoned in the underground palace at the bottom of Doufu Lake, and when I saw it, I rescued him." ”

"Hmph." Youheke glanced at the stone and said: "The wrist is cut, and the pinhole is faintly visible in the neck, I'm afraid that I was fed a blood pill by Dou Niang, and I plan to use it to make blood medicine, right?" ”

"Huh?" Li Fengying was surprised: "How do you know about the blood medicine?" I only recently learned about it. ”

"Humph!" Hearing Li Fengying say this, Yu Jike looked a little angry: "What method do you think we used to subdue Dou Niang back then?" Saying that, he sighed again and said: "It's a pity that this Dou Niang's inferiority has not changed, and she is still doing this dirty thing." It looks like it can't stay any longer. ”

"What did you just say?" Da Sima couldn't help frowning slightly when he heard Yu Jike say this: "Back then, we designed to capture Dou Niang wisely, which was a very secret plan, why do you know?" If you know this, who is your old friend? ”

"Don't get close to me!" You Jike seemed to be quite bored with Da Sima, and his tone was quite harsh: "Who am I, what do I have to do with you dwarf? ”

"Alright, alright!" Seeing that the two of them were about to make a move again, Li Fengying hurriedly stood between the two and separated them and said: "If you want to quarrel, wait until we get out of this underground palace and then quarrel, now the top priority is to kill Dou Niang quickly, otherwise my brothers may be killed by her at any time." ”

"Humph!" You and Ke snorted, turned around and pushed open the stone door and went alone, Li Fengying saw it, and was busy helping Brother Shi to pull Da Sima to follow behind, although You and Ke had a blood feud with him, but for some reason, seeing him in this underground palace, Li Fengying actually had an indescribable sense of intimacy, just like a child who had been away from his hometown for a long time suddenly saw his relatives in his hometown. Li Fengying followed behind Youheke, and when he saw that he had been silent, he wanted to start a conversation, talk with him for a while, and after thinking about it for a long time, he asked: "In that secret room just now, there are a lot of gold bricks... That's..."

"It was made of gold collected from all over the country by the prince of Jiancheng with Gaozu in the Quartet, and later entered Chang'an, I was ordered to build this underground palace, and after it was completed, the gold bricks were divided into thirteen parts, and stored in thirteen rooms in this underground palace, what you just saw was just one of them." Before he could speak, Da Sima suddenly rushed and said, "He definitely doesn't know this." As he spoke, he glanced at the back of the secluded guest.

"I see." Although Li Fengying didn't hear Youjike speak, he was still quite surprised to know this, and saw that Youjike was still walking without saying a word, and after thinking for a while, he still wanted to talk to him, so he asked Youjike again: "Since the gold is collected from all over the world, why is it placed under this private mansion instead of in the palace for emergencies?" ”

"You don't know." Da Sima heard Li Fengying ask, and said proudly: "At that time, as the crown prince, Gaozu had already had the meaning of Zen, but Li Shimin, the king of Qin, held the military power at that time, and was fighting outside, although he was far away from the imperial city, but no one could guarantee that there would be no cronies of the prince in the palace, so we divided some gold and silver in advance, hid it in the bricks, and released the news, saying that it was the financial report looted by Dou Jiande, in order to confuse others, and the rest was led by me and stored in this underground palace. This news should not have been leaked, but when Da Sima saw Li Fengying holding the Jinghong Sword in his hand, he had already regarded him as his own, and he was angry with Youhe, although he didn't know which colleague he was back then, but he said this just to show himself in front of Fengying: "He definitely doesn't know this." ”

"I see, I said why I found gold bars in the bricks of Dou Mansion." Li Fengying said, but suddenly thought of something, and still asked Yu and said politely: "But with so much gold, it is impossible to transport it all in by Da Sima alone, and it must cost a lot of manpower and material resources." In this case, this secret must be known to many people. As he spoke, he looked at the back of Youjike again, hoping that he could solve his doubts.

"You may not believe it when you say it," Da Sima raised his head and said proudly: "The coolies who participated in the transportation have all died here." ”

The body of the secluded guest trembled suddenly, but he instantly regained his composure and continued to move forward.

"What?" Hearing Da Sima say this, Li Fengying couldn't help but be shocked: "Li Jiancheng killed them? ”

"Nope." Da Sima shook his head and said, "Prince Jiancheng is a pure and good person, so he won't do this kind of thing." The coolies were willing to follow Prince Jian, and I just told them the seriousness of the secret, and they agreed to let me kill them. ”

"How can you be so cruel...," Li Bongying muttered, looking up at the back of the sick.

"Daxing does not care about the details." Da Sima shook his head and said, "I know that Prince Jiancheng would definitely stop it if he knew, so I didn't tell anyone about it." ”

"It's here!" The guest suddenly stopped, stretched out his hand and pulled a long ladder from above, and with a bang, the sound of the ladder landing on the ground lingered in the tunnel for a long time.

"What are you doing?" Da Sima was startled and pouted, "Want to scare people to death?" ”

"Hurry up and get me up!" You turned his head and glared at Da Sima coldly.

"Or I'll kill you!"
