Chapter 195: The Chamber of Secrets
Cheng Zi's strength on his feet increased by three points, causing Hu Changxiu's wound to be stepped on, and he almost fainted in pain, but he couldn't really faint, because Cheng Zi's feet kept increasing his strength, and the pain was so painful that he couldn't even hold back and not scream!
Cheng Zizi said: "What's your name, if I don't kill you, then who should I ask for money?" ”
Linghu Changxiu was in pain, his mind had lost his mind, he shouted: "My name is Linghu Changxiu, you just ask my brother Linghu Changqing for money, you let go of me, I hurt!" ”
Cheng Zizi was overjoyed, he didn't expect to be able to catch someone when he entered Linghu's house, he thought he had to look for it, he was ready to fight, he never thought that as soon as he jumped into the yard, he would stab Linghu Changxiu on the ground!
At this time, a servant ran over in the front yard, making Fox Changxiu scream so miserably, the servants heard it, and naturally wanted to take a look, but they didn't realize that there might be a risk, and they thought that Linghu Changxiu had fallen and hurt somewhere!
But when the servants ran to the back garden, they saw a masked man holding a long knife, and the second master Linghu Changxiu was trampled under the feet of this masked man, and the servants were immediately blinded, none of them could imagine that someone would run into this mansion to spread wild, this is the outer residence of Linghu Changqing, the chief administrator of the inner court, no one in Chang'an will not know, right?
The servants were in too much of a hurry, none of them took weapons, and in a hurry, no one thought about it, so they rushed up together with a shout to save Linghu Changxiu, from this point of view, it was very touching to Linghu Changxiu!
But Cheng Zizi didn't care, he flipped the long knife over, and used the back of the knife to cut the servants, although the back of the knife was not as sharp as the blade, but the slash on the body was also extremely painful, the servants didn't know martial arts, and they were not Cheng Zizi's opponents at all, just a moment of work, they were all knocked to the ground, and one of the servants saw that something was wrong, and he didn't come forward, but turned around and ran away.
Cheng Zizi knocked down the servants, and he didn't waste time, but grabbed Linghu Changxiu, like an eagle catching a chicken, carried him to the front yard, and said to him, "Where is the kitchen?" ”
Linghu Changxiu didn't answer immediately, he couldn't figure out why this masked man asked the kitchen, plus he was sweating in pain, so he answered more slowly!
Cheng Zizi said: "If you don't answer, eat me again!" He aimed his long knife at Linghu Changxiu's ass and stabbed again, and the knife stabbed right next to the wound in front of him!
Linghu Changxiu screamed, he didn't expect the masked man to really stab him again, he didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly said: "Go to the left and you'll be there, it's in the front yard!" ”
Cheng Zizi smiled: "If I ask you about the study or bedroom, it doesn't matter if you don't answer, and I don't even answer when I ask you about the kitchen, this means that you owe poke, say quickly, do you owe poke!" ”
"Yes, yes, I owe stab, beg the hero not to stab me again!" Linghu Changxiu thinks that the most painful moment in his life, that is, now, has never been frightened, and he has never been stabbed in the ass with a knife!
Cheng Zizi strode to the kitchen, and when the servants here saw him carrying Linghu Changxiu over, they were so frightened that they ran away, and no one dared to step forward to stop him.
Cheng Zizi threw Linghu Changxiu to the ground, then went into the kitchen, took a few oil cans out, threw them on the firewood, and made a little fire, and in an instant, the fire started, and the black smoke billowed out, from the outside, it really looked like a fire!
Linghu Changxiu took advantage of the time when Cheng Zizi set the fire, and struggled to get up, but unfortunately his butt hurt too much, he couldn't go out by himself, and finally had to lie down again, trying to use both hands and feet, and crawled out of the courtyard of the kitchen, not too far, there was still a long distance from the courtyard gate, and Cheng Zizi had already finished setting the fire!
Cheng Zizi walked up to Linghu Changxiu and said with a smile: "You are really dishonest, I don't tie you up because I trust you, I believe you won't escape, but you really dare to escape, you have betrayed my trust in you, I want to punish you!" ”
Cheng Zizi lifted his feet and stepped on Linghu Changxiu's buttocks, with great force, until Linghu Changxiu stepped on Linghu Changxiu to death, this pain really made him unforgettable for the rest of his life.
However, Linghu Changxiu had already understood a truth at this time, unless his brother came back to rescue him personally, he should not use the idea of escaping, it was really that the servants of his brother's family were too weak in fighting assassins!
Cheng Zizi picked up Linghu Changxiu and walked to the backyard again, this time looking for a bedroom.
Outside the courtyard, Li Rizhi saw a thick column of smoke suddenly rising from the house, and black smoke billowed out, so he knew that Cheng Zizi had succeeded, and said to Peng Ji: "Peng Shibo, look, that house is on fire!" ”
Peng Ji also saw the black smoke, he immediately turned around and shouted at the officials and the Wuhou in the fang: "Whose house is that, why is it on fire?" Why are you still standing stupidly, hurry up and put out the fire! ”
Saying that, Peng Ji took the lead and ran to Linghu Changqing's house first, and the officials behind immediately followed, and the large number of martial marquis did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly ran up.
But the Wuhou are a little puzzled, Peng County Ling has never been to the workshop, this is the first time to come back, after entering the workshop, he went directly here, and then waited for a while, the house of the chief housekeeper of Linghu caught fire, and then Peng County Ling took everyone to fight the fire, this thing is wrong, it feels like Peng County Ling has long known that the chief housekeeper of Linghu is going to be on fire!
Although the Wuhou felt very strange, no one dared to say more, so they could only follow along to fight the fire!
When Peng Ji arrived at the gate, there was no need for them to call the door, and he saw that the gate was open, and several servants ran out of it, both men and women, all of them looked panicked, Peng Ji asked, "Who is this, why is it on fire?" ”
A servant saw a large group of people coming outside, and the leader was still a five-grade official, he didn't recognize Peng Ji, but shouted: "Ladies and gentlemen, help, this is the house of the chief manager of Linghu, there are robbers who have broken in, are killing people and setting fires, killing the second master of my family, please help me!" ”
Peng Ji is overjoyed, okay, since you invited us in, then we will have something to say in the future, even if we can't find anything, it won't make Linghu Changqing turn his face on the spot, we didn't want to go in, it was your servant who begged us to go in!
Peng Ji shouted: "Everyone go in quickly, catch the robbers and put out the fire, hurry up, don't waste time!" ”
He jumped off the horse and was the first to rush into the courtyard, and behind him, Li Rizhi and the others also rushed in, and they all rushed into Linghu Changqing's house.
Although the black smoke in the house is thick, but in fact, it is only the firewood pile in the kitchen that is on fire, in order to prevent fire, the firewood pile is originally placed separately, not against the wall around, so the fire basically will not spread, of course, in the absence of strong winds, it will not spread, so there is no need to panic, step by step firefighting, it is okay.
But the people who rushed in outside didn't know this, and they all rushed in the direction of the kitchen where the fire was going, but Peng Ji was a few steps behind and waved at Li Rizhi, and several people didn't go to the kitchen, but went straight to the bedroom in the backyard.
Several people who were wheezing and panting went to the backyard together, and just saw Cheng Zizi walking to the door with Linghu Changxiu, Li Rizhi shouted: "Who is this person, is it Linghu Changxiu?" ”
Cheng Zizi smiled: "Yes, he is Linghu Changxiu, he was caught by me, you can do whatever you want, I have to smear some knife wound medicine on this guy, so that he will not die of excessive blood loss." ”
Li Rizhi said: "Don't give him medicine first, you have to ask him where Linghu Changqing hid things, if there is any evidence, Linghu Changqing will definitely not be put on the bright side, there may be a dark room, or a secret grid or something, we are afraid that it is not easy to find, just ask him directly!" ”
Fu Guibao followed and shouted, "If he doesn't say it, let him bleed to death!" ”
This sentence frightened Linghu Changxiu, there is an official in this group of people, although the rank is not as high as his brother, but it is also an official, listening to the meaning of their words, they have known each other for a long time, could it be that they are not coming for themselves, but for Linghu Changqing?
Linghu Changxiu made up his mind in an instant, no matter how the other party tortured him, he couldn't tell where his brother's hiding room was, and he would definitely not betray his brother!
Cheng Zizi listened to Li Rizhi's instructions, hummed, threw Linghu Changxiu to the ground as soon as he let go of his hand, and then stepped on it with a big foot, still stepping on Linghu Changxiu's ass, just stepping on it like this, Linghu Changxiu really felt that life was worse than death, what was strong, what was not to betray his brother, all of them were left behind!
Linghu Changxiu shouted: "There is a secret room in my brother's bedroom, just behind the bookshelf, don't step on it, it hurts me to death!" ”
Cheng Zizi let go of his foot, picked up Linghu Changxiu again, and said, "If not, then don't blame me for stepping on you again!" ”
Fu Guibao arrived at the door of the bedroom, kicked out, kicked the door of the bedroom open, everyone entered the bedroom together, and saw that this bedroom was divided into two rooms, inside and outside, there was nothing to see outside, and there were no bookshelves, Peng Ji was anxious, and rushed directly into the inner room, which was close to the bed, and there was indeed a bookshelf!
Judging from the size, this bookshelf is exactly the size of a door, and there are more than a dozen sets of books neatly placed on it, but judging from the cover, they are some of the more common books on the market.
Cheng Zizi asked, "How can this secret room be opened?" ”
In these years, the people who own the secret room must be big people, and it will be more or less dangerous to open such a secret room.
The people in the countryside will definitely not need this kind of thing, and it is useless for them to repair the secret room, so they can't put some hoes and flat burdens in the secret room, and the landlord's house has a secret compartment at most, and the secret compartment is often placed next to the pillow, and some silver money title deeds are placed in it, and there will be no news of the organ.
But the secret room of the big man's house is different, there are often some valuables in it, in order to prevent someone from stealing, there will be some organ news, if you don't pay attention when you open the secret door, you are very likely to be injured, or even killed!
Linghu Changxiu hesitated slightly, and said, "Just push it to the left!" ”
Li Rizhi saw his expression, and knew that this secret door must have a mechanism, and said loudly: "Use him to block in front of you, and then push this bookshelf!" ”
Cheng Zizi immediately blocked Linghu Changxiu in front of him, but he didn't push the bookshelf, just waiting for Linghu Changxiu to beg for mercy, and sure enough, Linghu Changxiu was so frightened that he immediately shouted: "It's to push to the right, you can't push to the left, you will shoot arrows!" ”
Li Rizhi stepped forward and pushed the bookshelf to the right, but it didn't take much effort, the bookshelves were easily pushed open, revealing the secret room inside. This secret room is really not big, and there are not many things in it, presumably Linghu Changqing has just developed for a long time, so there are not too many things to hide.
As soon as the secret door opened, Peng Ji immediately strode in, Li Rizhi frowned in the back, this Peng Shibo is really an anxious person, he is not afraid that there are organs inside, and he also followed into the secret room.
Inside the secret room was a half-human-tall copper furnace, but it looked like it had never been used before, as well as some alchemy utensils, and a small table with several boxes on it, each of which looked quite valuable.
Li Rizhi opened one of the boxes, picked up one of the things, sizzled and took a breath, and said, "Peng Shibo, look at this!" ”
