"Since you are willing to descend, you must get out of the wall as soon as possible, otherwise-"

Zhou Liang deliberately lengthened the language to make the other party panic, he had been in the den of thieves and knew how to use means to make the frightened person even more frightened. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the sound of a turning mechanism to be heard in the wall, and then the compound wall slowly turned and opened like a portal, revealing a gap that only allowed one person to enter and exit.

Zhou Liang's eyes widened, he tightened the long sword in his hand, and he shouted:

"Don't get out and down yet!"

With his reprimand, the baby's cry sounded in the compound wall, and the person hiding in the compound wall had to appear in the cry.

A woman with her hair in a disrupted bun and a cloak bent over a crying baby, and walked out of the compound wall timidly, Zhou Liang waited for her to get out of the compound wall, and quickly stepped forward and put the long sword on the woman's neck, and at the same time glanced at his subordinates.

Huiyi's subordinate immediately stepped forward on guard, first used his sword to stir up the gap, and then bent over to enter the compound wall, and in a moment the subordinate retreated, he shook his head at Zhou Liang, and reported that there was no one else in the wall.

After making sure that there was no one else, Zhou Liang was slightly relieved, and he turned his attention back to the woman with the baby in his arms, and picked the woman's long hair with the blade of his sword, revealing a pretty face that was discolored.

Zhou Liang's heart moved, he looked at this young woman, only to see that she was dressed in cicada clothes, her body was graceful, although a melon seed face was discolored because of fright, but it was difficult to hide her pretty, and there was a young woman's style between her eyebrows.

Zhou Liang couldn't help but feel a flurry in his heart, although this young woman's face turned pale because of fear, in his eyes, it was a sickly beauty with skin that was better than snow. His Adam's apple kept rolling, and he swallowed a little before he pretended to drink sternly and asked:

"Who are you, to hide in this wall?"

When the young woman heard this shout, her graceful body trembled slightly like the wind blowing willow leaves, and Zhou Liang's heart fluttered again, and the long sword in her hand unconsciously tilted to the side.

The young woman's eyes were slightly red, and tears were pouring down, and before she could make a sound, people couldn't help but feel three points of love. She replied timidly and softly:

"The slave family is the king of Zhou, and the husband is the master of this room, and the family was suddenly attacked by soldiers, and was forced by the poisonous smoke, so he had to commit himself to the wall in order to avoid disaster······"

It turned out that the young woman was the wife and concubine of the owner of the dock fort. Tonight, this dock fort was attacked by Yan Xing and his people at night, in the chaos, the owner of the dock fort in the backyard has not gathered the servants and soldiers, the enemy in the front yard has already defeated the resisting personnel, driving the fleeing people to rush to the backyard, the master of the dock fort has no choice but to gather the people around him in the lobby, using a strong crossbow and a hard bow to guard the hall door, trying to protect the remaining people and relatives in the inner room.

Unexpectedly, the enemy soon used a stratagem to force the guards of the main house to withdraw. The smoke continued to pour in, and the master of the dock fort knew that everyone in the hall would definitely die if he went on like this, so he first hid his wife and children in the compound wall of the inner room, and then killed all the other people who knew about it in the hall, and then took the rest of the soldiers of the Qu family to fight to the death, broke through and charged, and wanted to fight to the death with the enemy outside the hall, but unfortunately in the breakthrough, he was shot to death by a stray arrow.

However, the owner of this dock fort is good at plotting his family, and he arranged these aftermath things in an orderly manner before he died, and he was not tortured much when he died, and he expected to have no regrets.

Zhou Liang heard the young woman's answer, and after scrutinizing it back and forth, he already knew it in his heart. He had also been surprised by the early breakthrough of those trapped in the lobby, but now that he thought about it, it turned out that the owner of the dock fort had done it to protect his wife and children and prevent the smoke from pouring into the inner room.

It's just that he still has questions in his heart, so Zhou Liang asked again:

"You are in the middle of the wall, and there is smoke pouring into the inner room, how can you survive, and the cry before, it must have been from the baby in your arms, right?"

The young woman nodded tearfully, she glanced at Zhou Liang timidly, and quickly lowered her head and replied:

"There is a hole in the compound wall that leads to the outside of the house, well-the crying sound is indeed the son of the concubine, the original child was held in the arms of the concubine, and there was no movement for a long time, the concubine thought that she was too sulky, and heard the footsteps in the inner room far away, so she let go of the child to check, but I didn't expect the child to cry out——"

It is not uncommon for the inner chambers of Haoqiang's house to have compound walls, which can be used to hide objects or hide people, and are often used for refuge. For example, Zhou Liang knows that the contemporary Confucian celebrity Zhao Qi has a legendary story of hiding in the wall.

At that time, the eunuch helped Emperor Huan to destroy the "general of Bahu" Liang Ji and his family, and the Son of Heaven was in power, so he was rewarded in a big way, and the eunuch Shan Chao was the Marquis of Xinfeng, Xu Qiong was the Marquis of Wuyuan, Gu Ying was the Marquis of Dongwu, Zuo Yi was the Marquis of Shangcai, and Tang Heng was the Marquis of Yuyang, and the world called it "five marquis in one day".

The five marquis of eunuchs can be described as powerful, known as "holding the prince in his hand and holding the constitution of heaven in his mouth." Move back to the mountains and seas, and breathe into frost and dew. A will beg, then the light spoils the three tribes; If you are angry, you will go to the five sects. And Shan Chao died soon after being sealed, and the other four marquis continued to control the government. Xu Crouching Tiger, Tang Liang fell", which shows the great power of these four marquis.

And Zhao Qi offended Tang Heng's brother Tang Xuan, Tang Xuan was the captain of Jingzhao Huya at the time, and he misbehaved, and the people of the time hindered the power of his brother Tang Heng. Zhao Qi and his cousin Zhao Xi were upset and belittled him many times, Tang Xuan naturally had the upper hand in the public opinion of the scholars, so he hated the Zhao brothers very much in his heart.

Later, when Tang Xuan was appointed Jing Zhaoyin, and his younger brother supported him above the court, he happened to attack the Zhao family under his rule. Zhao Qi was afraid of a catastrophe, so he fled with his cousin Zhao Jian. Soon, Tang Xuan really arrested Zhao Qi's family members and relatives, and framed and killed them all. Zhao Qi took refuge in all directions and traveled to many places. In the end, Zhao Qi chose to go incognito, hid in Beihai to buy cakes, and was rescued by Sun Song to his home and hid in the compound wall.

In this way, Zhao Qi suffered the decline and fall of the Tang family's power in the imperial court, and was requisitioned by the Three Dukes. During the period, a total of 32 chapters of "Ertun Song" were created in the compound wall, and Zhao Qi, who saw the light of day, and Sun Song, who was anxious for justice and righteousness, became famous for this, and the legend of this compound wall hiding also spread with the public opinion of Shilin.

The compound wall of the inner chamber of the dock fort in front of me is still small-scale, which can only accommodate the young woman to hide, but it is also more secretive, if it were not for the sudden crying of the baby in her arms, I am afraid that it is really necessary to let the mother and son survive and leave the trouble.

Zhou Liang moved the long sword to the baby in the young woman's arms, he wanted to stab the baby to death with a sword, but when he thought of the young woman's beauty and graceful figure, he still couldn't resist a burst of fever in his lower body, and his heart was constantly restless.

He pressed the long sword down, a ghostly smile on his lips, and said seductively:

"Your mother and son, do you want to die quickly, or do you want to survive?"
