Chapter 292: The Chamber of Secrets
Huang Lao led the people into the corner compartment, and after Mo Shuyan and the three entered, Huang Lao looked outside a few times, but did not see any movement, and then closed the door of the compartment.
Then Huang Lao walked to the wall on the right, bowed down slightly, and struck five times at knee-high height, the knocking sound was three long and two short, and it was accompanied by an echo, obviously hollow inside.
With a pulling sound, the half-zhang long and wide wooden board on the wall was pulled down, revealing a pitch-black hole, and then, the faint candlelight illuminated a pair of eyes in the dark, staring at Mo Shuyan and the others, their eyes were as empty as dead people, quite mad, when this look fell on Huang Lao, it suddenly softened a little.
The candlelight withdrew into the darkness along with those eyes, Huang Lao looked at the surprised looks of Mo Shuyan and the others, and explained with a smile: "This is the head of the dark place, and it is also my partner, just call him Wuri, let's go, the people you brought, except for the ones arranged outside, are all inside." ”
After Huang Lao finished speaking, he took the lead in entering the darkness.
"No sun? Yongning, never having a peaceful day, this name is appropriate. ”
Mo Shuyan reacted to the name in an instant, but he just smiled, led Zhang Ji and Fan Chou, and went into the dark.
As soon as he entered the entrance of the cave, there was a faint candlelight around him, of course, and those empty eyes, but at this time, Mo Shuyan was no longer strange, but a little kind, these people, who had been hiding in the dark all year round, brought the most valuable information, as if it was like a formed Hidden Pavilion, which made Mo Shuyan yearn for it.
When Mo Shuyan and the three of them walked forward a little, there was a sound of pulling and pulling from behind, obviously Wuri put the plank back in case someone entered the compartment and found this place.
As soon as this entrance was closed, everyone suddenly fell into the real darkness where they couldn't see their fingers, and Huang Lao's voice sounded in front again, as if he wanted to remind him.
"This is the entrance, except for the stairs that are a little dangerous, the other three sides are smooth, you can rest assured, just watch your step."
With this cognition, Mo Shuyan only needs to pay attention to every step under his feet, and erase it around, and sure enough, it is all smooth, without any edges and corners, but it is not used but scratches and scratches.
didn't go far, there was a light in front of him, and after a few more steps, there was already candlelight everywhere in his eyes, and Huang Lao was already waiting for Mo Shuyan here.
Mo Shuyan can still understand why no candlesticks were built on this dark road, but he just doesn't want the outside world to have the slightest possibility of discovering here, after all, the candlelight will pass through the cracks.
At this time, Mo Shuyan finally saw Wuri, who was following behind, this person turned out to be a good young man who was young, with a childish face, but with those vicissitudes of life.
"Are you unavailable? actually let this little doll who just came out of the oven to take charge of the shadows. ”
Zhang Ji frowned, subconsciously said it, and then for fear of being misunderstood, he added: "I don't mean to look down on young people, I just want to say that he shouldn't have started spending time in the dark at such an age." ”
At first, there was a little coldness in Wuri's eyes, but after learning that Zhang Ji had no malicious intentions, he returned to normal, but he didn't refute anything, as if it had nothing to do with him.
Mo Shuyan couldn't accept this statement, and said in a deep voice: "What's wrong with young people, as long as they follow their hearts, what does it matter to the rest?" Young people may lack experience, but they are not lacking in flexibility, don't always talk about age. ”
"It's me who lost my word." Zhang Ji said with some embarrassment.
"Mr. Jiuwen's name, hearing these words, it can be regarded as living up to his reputation, and now the task is important, so there is no need to waste time on greetings." Wuri said expressionlessly.
Mo Shuyan nodded, looking at Wuri's eyes more and more full of approval, it is rare to be able to distinguish priorities at any time, just with such thoughts, he is worthy of sitting in the dark.
"Please, sir." Huang Lao stretched out his hand and guided.
"Please."
In response, Mo Shuyan followed behind Huang Lao and Wuri, walked through the front porch, and came to the hall, and the sound of discussion invaded almost instantly.
At first glance, Mo Shuyan saw Hu Zhen in the crowd, he was negotiating something with the people next to him, and then looked carefully, Mo Shuyan found several familiar figures, of course, nearly half of them were very unfamiliar, obviously Yongning County's manpower.
Hu Zhen suddenly looked at Mo Shuyan, quickly put down the things in his hand, walked towards Mo Shuyan, and said loudly: "Mr. is finally here, I don't have to have such a headache." ”
"Sir."
The rest of the team members also bowed their hands to Mo Shuyan.
"Headache? But there is no problem that cannot be solved. Mo Shuyan asked rhetorically.
Without waiting for Hu Zhen to answer, Wu Ri took the lead in snatching the conversation, Gu Bo said without surprise: "The only problem is that tomorrow Mo Xiang will first meet with the county guard He Chang, and then meet the rich businessman led by He Quan, which will take a day's work, in short, if you do it tomorrow, you must solve the two big people in the same place, either Mo Xiang and He Chang, or Mo Xiang and He Quan." ”
"Is that so?"
Mo Shuyan frowned slightly, and his face was a little difficult to look at, if this is really the case, it seems that it is most reasonable to give up tomorrow's action, otherwise, if you want to solve two people at the same time, it is likely to lead to the failure of the mission, and if the beheading is not completed at that time, it will definitely make them fall into a desperate situation, Yongning County is not in chaos, and it is basically impossible to escape after making trouble.
"And if you postpone it for a day, maybe do it?" Mo Shuyan looked at Wuri and asked, as the leader of the shadows, no one knows Yongning's current situation better than Wuri.
"The idea works."
Wu Ri was still expressionless, but a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then said: "But tomorrow night, Mo Xiang will leave Yongning and return to Luoyang to guard, and if he wants to kill Mo Xiang in the wild, it is beyond his ability." ”
Mo Shuyan nodded and agreed with this statement, in the wild, Mo Xiang's personal soldiers can exert ten percent of their combat effectiveness, and it is a joke to assassinate anything.
"Let me think about it, you go ahead with the original plan."
After stacking these words, Mo Shuyan walked to the stone on the side and walked down, holding his chin and falling into deep thought.
"Then let Sir think about it more, and let's continue to discuss and discuss, maybe we can come up with a solution first." Huang Lao proposed.
Hearing this, everyone didn't say anything, but they gathered together again, and discussed all kinds of information scattered on the table.
