Chapter 43: The Imperial Capital (Secret Passage Meets Old Friends)

"Okay, okay, do you plan to hold it all the time?" Wei Xuan said aggrievedly.

Wusheng on the side was also silent there.

Xiangxiang and Lu Yao were told by Wei Xuan to leave Xiaohu.

"Xiang'er, you and Lu Yao are staying in the inn, Wei Xuan and I will go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to have a look first," Wusheng said.

"Then be careful, if you find those girls, come back and inform us to discuss, don't act without permission......," Xiangxiang said.

"Don't worry, we won't mess around......" Wusheng said.

After speaking, Wusheng took Xiaohu and Wei Xuan out.

"I hope everything goes well......" Lu Yao said as she looked at their figures.

Wusheng and Wei Xuan came to the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion and looked at the mansion carefully. Xiaohu has turned into a golden roaring sword.

The mansion doesn't look any different, except that there are more guards, and from time to time there are patrolling soldiers roaming the house.

"Why don't we split up, and gather here if there'...... situation," Wusheng said to Wei Xuan.

Wei Xuan nodded, and the two separated.

Wusheng came to a corner of the Prime Minister's Mansion and secretly climbed into the wall.

Wei Xuan just turned around and came to a room in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Wusheng cautiously walked against the wall. Every now and then you have to crouch down to avoid the patrolling soldiers.

Walking aimlessly, his feet were empty, and he fell into a pit.

"Ah~" Wusheng sat on something, and Wusheng cried out in pain.

Several guards came to see the noise, but found nothing. All I saw was a pile of long grass.

"Well, I said, can you please not make such a fuss, there is only some grass here that hasn't been cleaned up all year round...... "Wusheng heard one of the guards say.

"What do you know, the Prime Minister was already very uncomfortable with the previous few who made such a fuss, if there is something wrong, we can't eat and walk around, so it's better to be careful..."

"I think it might be the voice of a kitten or a dog, it's impossible to hide in such a place, let's go," another sergeant said impatiently.

A few soldiers turned to leave, and Wusheng sighed in the pit, thinking that it was fortunate that the pit was covered by a thick layer of grass, otherwise it would have been exposed.

Wusheng felt the guards walk away before he stood up and looked at the thing he had just sat down on. Wusheng saw that it was actually the skull of an animal, probably because it also fell in, but the pit was too high to get out, so it was starved to death in the pit.

Wusheng looked up at the mouth of the pit.

"My God, it's so high, how can I climb up, it's easy to be found if I jump up directly, but if I don't jump up, there's no other way, and now it's already dark...... Wusheng whispered helplessly.

Suddenly, the Golden Roaring Sword emitted a golden light, just illuminating everything in front of Wusheng's eyes.

Only then did Wusheng see the environment inside the pit clearly.

There was nothing around the pit to help Wusheng climb up, and the pit was ten meters deep. Only on the top of the fence are some deep prints that may have been those animals that had fallen in and wanted to climb up and scratch with their claws.

"Master, don't think about it, you can only rely on internal strength to jump up now, there is no other way......" Xiaohu's voice came from the golden roaring sword.

"But then it will be discovered, and then it will be wasted," Wusheng said helplessly.

Xiaohu was silent.

Wusheng sat on the ground helplessly, grabbed a handful of sand, and suddenly found that the place where he grabbed the sand was different from other places, and Wusheng beat it in that place. It felt like it was empty, and Wusheng quickly climbed away from the sand.

After a while, something strange was noticed, and after the sand in that small area climbed away, a wooden plank appeared in front of Wusheng.

He effortlessly removed the plank, and found that it was empty underneath it, and it was pitch black inside.

Wusheng took the Golden Roar Sword and looked down, and found that it was a secret passage.

"This prime minister is really strange, why do you do so many secret passages at home, and they are all in these inconspicuous other parties" Wusheng muttered in a low voice.

"I think he must have something unspeakable, master, should we go down and have a look?" Xiaohu's so came from the golden roaring sword again.

Wusheng nodded, and carefully entered the secret passage with the golden roaring sword.

"What kind of prime minister is this, what the hell is he planning, this secret passage is similar to the design of the secret passage under the big stone before......" Wusheng said as he walked forward.

Wusheng walked forward under the illumination of the Golden Roaring Sword, and suddenly many dungeons appeared about ten meters away from the entrance of the secret passage, and there was only a pile of white bones in each dungeon.

Wusheng looked at those dungeons, and his heart couldn't help but tremble.

"I've lost my patience, do you want to say it?" Suddenly, a familiar voice came from a dungeon not far from Wusheng.

The dungeon where the sound came from was glowing with a glittering light.

Wusheng leaned against the corner of the wall, cautiously approaching the dungeon.

In the dungeon, a woman's hands were roasted on two iron chains, her hair was messy, her head was lowered, and she couldn't see the woman's appearance clearly.

"You still don't say yes, I have a way to ......get you to speak," said the former prime minister with a whip to the dying woman.

"Hehe, if you have any way, just do it," the woman said slowly.

"You ......" The prime minister looked at the woman viciously, and when he saw that the woman's attitude was still so tough, he gave a look to a subordinate.

The man looked at the woman with a wicked smile on his face and pulled the rope at his hand.

Suddenly, a large piece of iron nail behind the woman slowly moved towards the woman, and Wusheng could only watch the iron nail pierce the woman's back.

"Ah~" A miserable cry came from the dungeon.

After a while, the iron nail was removed, and the woman's back was pierced by the iron nail with dozens of wounds of the same size, and the blood that came out of the wounds stained the entire back.

Wusheng looked at all this and felt very depressed.

Wei Xuan's ......

Wei Xuan carefully searched in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but found nothing.

"I hope there will be a discovery over there...... Wu Sheng said," Wei Xuan thought to himself.

Suddenly, a room that looked like a miscellaneous item entered Wei Xuan's eyes, because there were more than a dozen guards standing at the door of that room, Wei Xuan thought that the general room was guarded by three or four people, but there were so many guards guarding here, there must be something important inside.

Wei Xuan cautiously approached the room, came to the back of the room, and jumped forward. Came to the roof of the room.

Wei Xuan cautiously walked to the middle of the roof, removed the two tiles, and looked down.

Wei Xuan saw that those girls were indeed in the room, everyone was tied up, a piece of cloth was stuffed in their mouths, and everyone was sitting there in fear.

Wei Xuan looked inside the room and didn't pay attention to his feet, and suddenly his foot accidentally touched a tile, and the tile fell, alarming the guards outside.

Seeing this, Wei Xuan had to deal with those guards first, Wei Xuan waved a blue light, and the blue light turned into more than a dozen needle-like blue lights at the moment he flew out, and those guards were pierced through their bodies before they could resist and fell down.

Wei Xuan thought that he had reached this point, so he simply escaped with those girls, but he didn't expect that as soon as Wei Xuan wanted to open the door, he was bounced open by a force.

Wei Xuan looked at the guards who rushed over while looking at the people in the room, thinking that the door of the room could not be opened for the time being, and he didn't want to startle the snake, so he had to flee the scene.

"Quick, he's ...... there," a leading sergeant said loudly, pointing to the room.

When a group of people came to the room, they found that Wei Xuan was gone, and there was still a pile of corpses lying at the door.

"What about people, ...... who was still here just now," the leader said the guard suspiciously.

The other guards all looked down at the dead bodies, and they all couldn't help but be afraid.

"Okay, you guys come with me to look around, you two, go and inform the Prime Minister......" The leader of the guard looked at everyone helplessly and said.

A group of people chased after Wei Xuan, and the two people left behind ran to inform the prime minister.

Inside the Secret Passage......

The woman fainted because she couldn't stand the torture she had just had.

One of the men brought some water and threw it at the woman.

The woman slowly woke up.

"Tell me where the energy ball is, or I'll let you taste something more powerful than just now......," said the prime minister.

The woman kept her head down and didn't speak.

"You really don't ......cry when you don't see the coffin," the prime minister said viciously, and then gave his subordinates a look.

The man was about to take a soldering iron that had just been taken out of the furnace. Suddenly, a guard rushed in through the back door of the dungeon, panicking.

"My lord, my lord, no, that person is here again during the day......" Shiwei said in a panic.

"What's the hurry, where are they?" said the prime minister.

"The leader has already taken his brothers to chase after him, so you might as well go and see for yourself......, my lord," said Shiwei.

"I'll take a look, you...... I have to find out the whereabouts of the energy ball from her mouth," the prime minister said, and followed the guard out the back door.

When the subordinate saw the prime minister go out, he turned around and looked at the woman with bad intentions and said, "Hahaha, it depends on whether your mouth is hard or my soldering iron is hard."

After the man finished speaking, he was about to burn the woman, but he was kicked by Wusheng and flew out, and the soldering iron in his hand that was kicked by Wusheng fell to the ground, and he also hit the wall and fell, just falling on the soldering iron, and screamed in pain.

Wusheng swung his golden sword, and the two chains were broken.

The woman lost her support in an instant and fell.

Wusheng helped her up.

"Girl, how are you?" asked Wusheng anxiously.

"I'm fine, thank you Shaoxia, while that person is not here now, you can leave quickly......" The woman slowly raised her head and looked at Wusheng and said weakly.

The woman raised her head and saw her face clearly, and Wusheng suddenly looked at the woman with a surprised expression.

"Wenwen?"
