Chapter 672: Secret Passages and Caves

After entering the room, Ye Cheng and Xiao Ya were directly led to a cubicle. The cubicle is very simple, with only a desk and a bookcase. The only thing that shocked Ye Cheng was the bookcase.

Originally, the bookcase had its back to the wall, but now the bookcase in front of it was split in two and opened to both sides, revealing the wall behind it. In the faint candlelight, Ye Cheng saw a hole in the wall, and the size of the hole was less than two meters in diameter. Zhu Ziding and Zhu Ziguo, who were 1.8 meters tall standing next to the entrance of the cave, were about to touch the top of the cave.

Ye Cheng slowly walked towards the entrance of the cave and asked with a serious expression, "This is the secret passage you discovered?" ”

"Yes, little master, it was already like this when we found out," replied Zhu Ziding with a little joy.

Looking at the dark entrance of the cave, Ye Cheng always felt uneasy in his heart, and his heart was beating fast, as if something unexpected was going to happen next.

Gradually, the more worried Ye Cheng became, the more he didn't dare to go inside, and his expression became solemn.

At this time, Xiao Ya came to the side and looked at the entrance of the cave, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" Did you feel something was wrong? ”

Xiao Ya's sudden appearance made Ye Cheng shake for a moment, and he turned his head to look to the left-hand side. After confirming that it was Xiao Ya, he relaxed, and then he looked back at the entrance of the cave and whispered: "Things are going so smoothly, we can move around casually in the huge mansion, I always feel that all this is arranged by someone, just waiting for us to break in."

"Could it be the Third Prince?" Xiao Ya may have agreed with Ye Cheng's thoughts, so she thought about the person who might frame them, and the only person she could think of was the third prince.

As for whether the third prince framed him, Ye Cheng was actually not sure in his heart. For this reason, he frowned, and said suspiciously: "The third prince should not know that we infiltrated the Xiao Kingdom, but we have seen Wu Tie, and Wu Tie was originally to assist the three princes, so I can't be sure whether Wu Tie told the third prince about us." ”

Under this uneasiness, Ye Cheng did not dare to take the first step towards the entrance of the cave. As a result, Xiao Ya and the two apprentices did not dare to go inside, the two apprentices looked at Ye Cheng in a panic, and Xiao Ya looked at the entrance of the cave with a serious face.

Ye Cheng didn't dare to go inside because he was worried about falling into the enemy's trap, if there was really a trap, he was the one who brought the two apprentices and Xiao Ya into the trap, then he would be guilty of ten thousand deaths.

But then I thought about it, even if it was a trap, I had to go inside! After all, this is an important clue to find Zhao Man's sister, and it is also the only possible clue.

Therefore, Ye Cheng's puzzled face gradually changed and became serious, and those eyes also looked at the entrance of the cave with bright eyes, and said, "I have decided, whether it is a trap or not, I will go in and have a look." Zhao Ran must have suffered a lot after being caught, so no matter what, she must fulfill General Zhao's last wish as soon as possible and save her sister from her suffering."

Zhao Ran is Zhao Man's sister, and Zhao Man said this name on his deathbed at that time, but did not give more information available, so it is very troublesome to find now. But as long as you know who caught you, you will definitely be able to find it.

And now the only clue was close at hand, and they had to go down and find out.

Xiao Ya didn't have any objections after hearing Ye Cheng's resolute words, nodded and replied: "Go in, if that girl is really inside, it is estimated that she will be tortured a lot."

Xiao Ya said this because as a general, she was well aware of the suffering of a prisoner in a secret cell. The man must be flogged and dealt with, and finally lead to a body injury, while the woman must be forced, and the injury is not the body but the mind at that time.

Xiao Ya, who knew this, also wanted to rescue Zhao Ran as soon as possible.

Needless to say, the two apprentices agreed very much with the righteous things and even actively did them. After Ye Cheng and Xiao Ya agreed to enter the cave, they turned to look at the cave with serious faces and said, "Let's lead the way."

Then, the two apprentices walked to the cave one after the other with candles in hand.

Ye Cheng and Xiao Ya in the back also followed, and Ye Cheng was broken to prevent anything unexpected from happening behind.

After entering the cave, although the darkness was still blurred under the candlelight, Ye Cheng could feel that his body was going down little by little. Therefore, the whole dark passage is dug down, and the dark passage is not straight, but has a certain arc.

In order not to startle the snake, Ye Cheng did not take out his mobile phone and use the flashlight function to illuminate the dark passage, he was afraid that the light emitted by the flashlight would be too strong, and if there was someone in front of him, he would find it in advance. So Ye Cheng just relied on the faint candlelight to walk.

It didn't take long for a bright yellow light to appear in front of the dark passage.

Zhu Ziding, who was walking in front, shouted in a low voice: "Little master, there is light ahead"

Ye Cheng naturally saw it, but what made him anxious was the voice. Zhu Ziding's voice was small, but the echo was very powerful, and if there were really people in front of them, they might be found.

So in order not to let the enemy find out, Ye Cheng replied in a low voice: "From here on, everyone will not talk to prevent the enemy from discovering us"

Under Ye Cheng's reminder, everyone began to cautiously continue to walk towards the bright light.

After a while, the four of them came to the place where the light came from. This is really the end of the dark passage, and there is a small cave at the end, which is only a dozen square meters. Ye Cheng squatted at the entrance of the dark passage, carefully stretched out his head to look in and observe.

There is no decoration in the cave, and there is a shelf bed against the wall on the right side of the dark passage. The shelf bed was now hung with curtains, so Ye Cheng couldn't see what was going on in the bed.

Ten torches hung along the walls of this small cave, and the fire burned so vigorously that the whole cave was lit up.

Although this cave is still a little beautiful, Ye Cheng squatted on the ground with a helpless face, and said secretly in his heart: "The person who dug this cave is a fool, and he still burns so many torches, and he is not afraid of burning out the oxygen, and finally dying of lack of oxygen."

But after a helpless heart, Ye Cheng suddenly felt extremely desperate. He slackened his whole body, leaned his back directly against the cave wall, put his hands on his knees, lowered his head, and sighed softly.

Xiao Ya saw Ye Cheng's desperate state, and she also squatted down to look at Ye Cheng. She also saw the situation inside the cave, so she knew why Ye Cheng was desperate, and she was also sad for this.

Xiao Ya stretched out her hands and put them on Ye Cheng's hands, and persuaded in a low voice: "Ye Cheng, don't ...... this"

"Little master, come and see, an acquaintance has come out of the bed"

And at this moment, Zhu Ziding, who had been sticking his head out of the dark passage to observe the situation on the other side of the shelf bed, suddenly raised his left hand and waved it in front of Ye Cheng, and let out an extremely low shout.
