(Thank you for your subscription and support, there will still be four shifts today, two shifts a day from tomorrow, and the time is fixed at eight o'clock in the morning and six o'clock in the evening) "Young owner, we can go." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" came the sound of Yukura outside the window.

"Mother, offended." Yang Guang was afraid that Sima Luo would change his hexagram temporarily, so he stepped forward and carried Sima Luo on his back and ran out of the upper room.

The courtyard was peaceful. Yukuluo's tall figure dragged a long black shadow on the grass, like an iron tower.

"You let me down, and I'll go with you." Sima Luo was ashamed and angry, slapped Yang Guang's back with two small fists, and scolded him.

"Hehe, Lord Wang, if you want to carry it, Lao Er will carry it." Yu Juluo came over, looked at Sima Luo on Yang Guang's back, and said with a wicked smile, "The two juniors at the entrance of Sweet Water Road have been put down by me, Niangniang, Wangye, come with me." ”

Yang Guangnai couldn't stand Sima Luo's punching and kicking on his back, so he had to put her down, but he was worried that she would run away at any time, so he asked her to walk in front of him and follow Yu Juluo to the back of the upper room.

The courtyard was built in such a way that it was very private, and under the cover of a bush of artemisia grass behind a row of upper houses, there was a small arched door leading to another courtyard. There was a man lying on the ground next to the door, presumably the gatekeeper who had been put down by Yukura.

Yang Guang escorted Sima Luo in the back prison, and followed Yujuluo through the small arched door and entered another courtyard, but unexpectedly found that this courtyard was different from the other two courtyards, but it looked like a warehouse where a firm stacked goods. In the courtyard, there are baskets like hills on all sides, and I don't know what kind of goods are inside.

After the three of them followed into the courtyard, Yu Juluo slowed down and reminded Yang Guang and Sima Luo behind him: "Lord Wang, Niangniang, I don't dare to guarantee that there will be no ambush on this sweet water road, stay for a while, we will enter the dark passage, you must follow me closely, don't be left behind." ”

The so-called sweet water road turned out to be a dark road!

"Where does this sweet water road lead?" Yang Guang opened his eyes and looked around, but he couldn't find the entrance to the secret passage.

"This, when we get out of the secret way, the prince will know. It is not easy for Hua Gu and his gang to build such a mansion in Chang'an City. Yu Juluo said as he walked straight to a row of houses on the north side of the courtyard, pushed open the door of a stone house on the far right, and turned around to beckon Yang Guang and Sima Luo to come over.

Yang Guang walked over with Sima Luo, stepped into the stone house, and couldn't help but gasp. From the outside, this stone house is no different from the other stone houses in the same row, but as soon as you step through the gate, there is a dark passage under your feet, and you don't know where it leads. At the entrance of the secret passage, just like outside the gate of the courtyard, there was also a person lying on his stomach, thinking that he was guarding the entrance of the secret passage, but he had been put down by Yujuluo and fainted.

Yu Juluo leaned over the person on the ground and groped for a while, took out a fold of fire from the person, wiped it and lit it, held it in his hand, and said to Yang Guang and Sima Luo: "The secret road is very long, Lord Wang, be careful." He was the first to walk into the dark passage.

This dark passage seemed to be built through the ground, and Yang Guang Danjue followed behind Yu Juluo, first descending dozens of steps before stepping on the flat ground. The dark passages were windy, and the air was filled with an unpleasantly damp smell.

"This road is not much better than the bitter water road we came from, why is it called a sweet water road?" Yang Guang couldn't help but ask Yu Juluo.

"That's because out of this secret passage, the Hu merchants who came here at night to have fun returned to their residences in Chang'an City, and during the day they could make a lot of money like dogs, so they called it a sweet water road."

Yu Juluo's explanation did not satisfy Yang Guang, but it made him feel inspired, and asked Yu Juluo again: "You said the secret way, that is, the West Market where Hu merchants gather in Chang'an City?" ”

Chang'an City in the first year of the opening of the emperor was still the capital of the Han Dynasty, and there were two cities in the east and west of the city, and most of the middle and eastern cities were Han merchants gathered to do business (there will also be individual foreign merchants settled here, such as Gao Liansheng from Goguryeo), and the west market was where Hu merchants gathered. Since Chang'an, the capital of the Western Wei Dynasty, in the past 40 or 50 years, merchants from the Western Regions and the Southern Barbarian states have come and gone, and the West Market has gradually risen in Chang'an City, and the scale has surpassed that of the East Market.

"The prince is really smart." Yu Ju Luo praised, and before the words fell, he suddenly exclaimed as if he had discovered something. "Be careful, there's an ambush ahead."

When Yang Guang raised his eyes, he saw a black oppression in front of him, like a group of bats flying straight towards the three people, and hurriedly used his body to block Sima Luo's body, in case a bat rushed into Sima Luo.

Yu Kura brought the fire fold back to his chest to protect it, and reached out with one palm to slash at the group of bats. With a faint glimmer of light, Yang Guang vaguely saw that at least half of the group of bats flying towards them were also struck by Yu Juluo's palm, letting out a scream, and falling to the ground one after another. Yu Juluo then waved his single palm, slashing left and right, and in a short time, eight or nine out of ten of the bats had been knocked to the ground by his extremely sharp palm, and less than one percent was left, flapping their wings, and fled for their lives.

"These bats are nocturnal, and if a guest slips away during the night, they alone are enough to stop them." Yu Juluo bent down to pick up a bat from the ground that he had chopped half to death, and turned back to explain to Yang Guang and Sima Luo.

After all, Sima Luo was only an eight- or nine-year-old girl, and she didn't have the composure and calmness that she had when she talked to Yang Guang in the upper room before, her face turned pale with fright, and her hands couldn't help but pull Yang Guang's sleeves tightly, and asked in a trembling voice: "Will there be more bats ahead?" ”

Yang Guang was most afraid of these living creatures on weekdays, and was about to say a few words to appease Sima Luo, when he suddenly heard a low cry from Yu Juluo in front of him: "Damn beast, I also bit Lao Tzu when I was dying." As he spoke, he raised his hand and viciously threw the bat in his hand to the ground.

At this time, Yu Juluo is the pillar of the three, and he can't get out of the pool. As soon as Yang Guang heard that Yu Juluo had been bitten by a bat, he couldn't care about comforting Sima Luo, who was trembling beside him, so he hurriedly ran to Yu Juluo, took the fire fold from his hand, raised it high, lit it for him, and asked anxiously: "Where is the bite, is it in the way?" ”

"Let the prince worry, how did this little bat hurt me? Out of the way. Yu Juluo said casually while showing the wound to Yang Guang.

"Huh? I didn't expect that a guy with such a thin body would be stung by it, and it would leave such obvious two tooth marks. Yang Guang exclaimed in surprise when he saw that there were two sharp tooth marks left between Yu Juluo's thumb and index finger.

"Lord Wang, what did you say? Tooth marks? As if he had been reminded by Yang Guang, Yu Juluo raised his hand, stared at the sharp tooth marks on his hand, and actually laughed. (To be continued.) )
