Chapter 87: The Lair (2)
The leader was stared at by Di Renjie, and a trace of unnaturalness flashed on his face, and he was a little hesitant. Seeing this, Li Yuanfang immediately shouted: "Say! ”
Looking at the stone gate with anxiety, the person said: "Behind is the base of the cave, these two stone doors can only be opened from the inside, and you can't enter from the outside!" ”
"The little one is definitely not fake!" Added.
Li Yuanfang obviously didn't believe his words, and he frowned coldly and even wanted to scold. Di Fat turned around and said to the stone gate: "This place is designed to be attacked, retreated, and defended, this door is big and heavy, once the door is closed, it cannot be opened from the outside!" Among the rebels, there are capable people......"
Di Renjie didn't forget to sigh.
Li Yuanfang was stunned for a moment, and his face was anxious: "How is this good, the traitor's lair is right in front of you, and you can't break in!" ”
"Here, I'm afraid there is more than one passage......" Yuan Hui said softly at this time.
"That's right!" Li Yuanfang's eyes lit up and looked at Di Renjie: "My lord, the rebels kept coming out of the house before, and they obviously didn't hide in it from the beginning, otherwise there are so many people, we can find out when we enter Zhendian!" ”
"Not bad...... The passage here is used to accommodate the passage of large groups of chariots and horses. The killers of Fang Cai are obviously not all from this! Di Renjie's tone was affirmative, and he turned his head to stare at the leader.
His eyes flickered, and he lowered his head.
"Li Jian!" Returning to the town, Yuan Hui called Li Jian: "Pass the order, search this town carefully for me again, smash the wall and destroy the house, and find out the secret passage for me!" Find some rebel captives to lead the way! ”
"Yes!"
On the other side, Yuan Fang was ordered to arrange for the guards belonging to the dethroned envoy guards.
Di Renjie took some people and headed towards a house with a clear purpose. He still remembered that those "men in black" just walked through this house and disappeared without a trace.
Inside, the ground was covered with blood from the corpses being dragged over, and as soon as he entered, the old fox's eyes were fixed on the gable. Approaching, he knocked up and down, left and right, and showed a little smile on his face: "It's empty inside!" ”
"There's a passage behind this!" Li Yuanfang's eyebrows were also a little happy.
Yuan Hui turned his head to stare at the leader, and smiled "gently": "This place can't be opened from the outside......
Facing Yuan Hui's gaze, the leader turned his head and set his eyes on a candlestick on the side of the case.
Di Renjie noticed it, and when he was about to step forward, he was stopped by Yuan Hui.
Swing a knife to cut the rope that binds the leader's hands and kick him in the ass: "Go, open the mechanism!" ”
Rubbing his wrist, which had been worn red by the rope, the leader bowed his head and stepped forward, holding the candlestick with both hands and turning it half a circle.
With the sound of "click", the wall in front of him suddenly turned sideways, revealing a secret door.
"Sure enough!" Di Renjie stroked his beard with a smile.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the leader rushed to the secret door, stepped in with one foot, and a steel knife had already passed through his chest from behind, Li Yuanfang's willow leaf chain knife.......
Do you want to be so fast...... A look of jealousy flashed in Yuan Hui's eyes, and he slowly unsheathed the horizontal knife he had just pulled out in his hand.
"My lord, the situation is unknown, and I will take someone to explore the way first?" Li Yuanfang asked.
This time, Di Renjie was no longer stubborn about exploring the road in person, and nodded in response: "Take the prisoners against the party, be careful, and open the passage on the left side of the street!" ”
"Yes!"
……
The small town, where could it withstand the search of the officers and soldiers ploughing the ground, and with the guidance of a few rebels, several secret passages were soon found in the town.
"Order the sergeants, search carefully!" Di Renjie didn't forget to tell him.
In the passage discovered before, in front of the stone gate, Di Renjie stood quietly, and the old face under the torch was unusually calm. Yuan Hui waited aside, staring at the two doors, thinking about something.
On the contrary, it was Di Chun, who was a little frizzy: "Master...... Why hasn't General Li opened the stone gate yet, is there something wrong? ”
"Don't rush!" Di Renjie waved his hand to stop Di Chun.
Glancing at Yuan Hui who was holding his arms in both hands, Di Chupang suddenly asked, "Yuan Hui, Yun Xiao Niang, didn't you come along?" ”
The corner of his eyes jumped, why did this old man suddenly ask about this...... After a change of thought, Yuan Hui replied: "The conditions in the mountains are harsh, and the safety is unknown, so I let her stay in Guangping!" ”
"Oh...... That's ......" Di Renjie muttered, and after saying that, he opened it, looked at the stone door that was still closed, and didn't care about the mentally active Yuan Langjun.
didn't let Di Renjie wait too long, and finally, there was a slight noise from inside the stone gate, and he immediately noticed it, and his spirit was lifted.
The dull sound of stone rock friction sounded, the two stone doors slowly moved open, the figure flashed, Li Yuanfang came out with a few sergeants, opened his mouth and called.
"Yuan Fang, how is it?" Di Renjie immediately asked.
Yuan Hui's attention was fixed on the knife in Li Yuanfang's hand, which was stained with blood.
"My lord, it's very big, there are many forks in the road, and there are some remnants of the traitorous party!" Li Yuanfang said in a deep voice, and he didn't know how many lives he had harvested in the cave.
"Let's go!" Very crisp one-word order.
The entry of the officers and men of the brigade completely broke the tranquility in the cave, and there were sporadic fights and killings from time to time......
Along the way, the pine pillars that are erected on the wall of the passage are lit, and there are many forks, each of which is connected to a huge cave outside the communication mountain. In between, there are iron-smelting furnaces and workshops.
"This is the real lair of the rebels in Youzhou, with the 'ghost town' to hide people's eyes and ears, secretly planning a rebellion, and the caves found in the mountains are obviously connected to this place...... It will definitely take a lot of effort to build such a nest, and that Golden Mulan is really painstaking! For a long time, Di Renjie sighed.
Yuan Hui also silently observed Li Qingxia's lair, and secretly praised it in his heart. This woman, in addition to unrealistic ambitions, deserves to be a strange woman of the previous generation, especially the proud pair of big waves......
Li Yuanfang echoed Di Chubby by the side, and his face was also a little moved: "Yes, who would have thought that in this deep mountain, there is a rebel party of such a scale!" ”
"But fortunately, now the anti-party nest has been broken by adults," Li Yuanfang was a little optimistic, .......
"Brother Yuanfang, it's not time to relax yet!" Yuan Hui couldn't help but "hit" a sentence.
Today's situation is somewhat "familiar" to Yuan Hui......
Before Li Yuanfang could answer, Di Renjie was already on the side: "Yes! The thief leader Jin Mulan has not yet been bound, and they must have created a lot of weapons in the workshop in the cave, and now what about these weapons......"
Casually pointing out two suspicious points, Di Renjie suddenly looked at a path on the left in front of him, and muttered: "Where does this lead to?" ”
Along the path paved with stone slabs, I walked a full stick of incense, and saw a stone gate again.
The sergeant stepped forward cautiously and easily opened the stone door, revealing the elegant decoration and decoration, and a faint fragrance in the air.
The pale yellow gauze curtain hung up, and behind the curtain, there was a figure sitting quietly on the stone bed. Seeing this scene, Yuan Hui's eyes revealed that it was really so.
The guard stepped forward, and with only a slight touch, "Golden Mulan" fell, and it was already a corpse.
"This person is Jin Mulan?" Looking at the corpse, Di Renjie whispered: "Yuan Hui, find a few captives to recognize!" ”
"Yes!" Yuan Hui turned around and left, he recognized it, and the corpse in front of him was clearly the personal maid beside Li Qingxia.
The old fox's eyes swept over the corpse a few times, and the thin size and broad armor looked extremely incongruous......
