Chapter 515: Tunnel
The guests who were "invited" out of the hall before were in a side hall of the palace at this time.
The deafening sound of explosions, just a wall away from them,
Billowing smoke rose into the sky, as if to block the starry sky.
The king of Shu had already been escorted away,
The senior monks of Yongling Temple, the monks of Annan, and the Wude Weitiqi guarding the side hall also changed their faces sharply when they heard the explosion, and they rushed to the hall one after another.
Only the pale-faced crowd remained in place, staring at each other.
What's going on in the hall?
Song Shu ignored others, walked quickly to the edge of the courtyard wall, took out a brush from his arms, and drew a simple door on the wall.
After the last stroke, a wooden door suddenly appeared on the masonry wall.
Gently pushing the door, the street outside the backyard of the palace is revealed,
On the stone carving of the tethered horse stake across the street,
There are also two ropes tied and two horses on it.
Song Shu turned around lightly, and said to the dignitary who took him to the palace banquet with a calm face: "My lord, go this way." ”
The dignitary paused for a moment, "This is?" ”
"Luzhou is going to be in chaos, it's better to escape as soon as possible."
Song Shu said softly and hurriedly: "In the palace, it is the most unsafe place now. ”
He didn't know the specific situation in the hall, and he didn't know who had the upper hand.
But when the White Lotus Sect and Wu Dewei officially tore their faces and fought around Xiangrui,
He is a lonely man with no door and no faction, and if he mixes in, it will be really fatal.
The sound of buildings collapsing outside the courtyard walls continues,
The dignitary didn't talk nonsense, and walked forward quickly, through the door, and ran to the horses that had been prepared a long time ago.
Some of the guests who had come to the dinner hurriedly shouted the names of the dignitaries and scrambled to the wooden door to escape from the palace.
Song Shu stood guard by the wooden door, and did not prevent others from borrowing the way, waiting for the dignitary to ride on the horse.
He had only passed through the wooden door and looked back at the "guests" who had remained in the courtyard and did not seem to intend to leave.
These people are here to rob auspiciousness,
Even if you can't snatch the food from the tiger's mouth, snatch the auspicious rui from the hands of the White Lotus Sect and Wu Dewei,
You can also take advantage of the chaos in Luzhou, fish in troubled waters, and grab benefits for yourself.
"Mountains and rivers meet, you all have a fate to see you again."
Song Shu arched his hand lightly, and his figure disappeared on the other side of the gradually closing wooden door.

"Ahem, ahem."
Under the floor of the hall, Xing Qianhu Yu Qingqiu, the head of the West Investigation Factory, covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, suppressing the coughing sound caused by inhaling dust.
The place where he is seems to be a tunnel.
The tunnel is dim and dark, not low, even if it is a tall Yu Qingqiu, he can walk normally without hunching his waist.
Brush.
Yu Qingqiu took off a small cyan bamboo tube from his waist,
As the rope exposed at the end of the bamboo tube was pulled out, a ball of fireflies immediately flew out of the small hole at the front of the bamboo tube.
These fireflies have long, narrow, red bodies and bright orange glows at the end of their tails, illuminating the dark tunnels.
With the icy light, Yu Qingqiu found that the cross-section of the tunnel was relatively regular and circular, and the edges were smoother than expected.
You can see some yellowish-gray plant rhizomes showing the edges,
There are also various unknown insects, crawling through the cracks of the dirt.
Something's wrong...
Yu Qingqiu was still covering his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, and his slightly squinted eyes were looking at the darkness ahead.
The fireflies in the bamboo tube are a rare alien cultivated by the secret service, and they can usually illuminate a distance of ten meters away.
In this tunnel, the glow of fireflies can only illuminate three or four meters in front of it, and it can't shine farther.
This tunnel seems to be devouring the light.
Yu Qingqiu reached out and touched the edge of the tunnel, and found that the surface of those seemingly rough dirt and stones was covered with a layer of viscous and slippery transparent substance.
It's like mucus on the surface of fish scales, but it doesn't smell fishy.
It is rumored that among the tomb robbers who specialize in stealing graves and digging graves is called "mountain movers".
It can domesticate and breed a strange beast that digs the armor of the famous mountain, and can quietly dig up sand and gravel and dig tunnels.
It doesn't seem to leave this kind of mucus behind...
Yu Qingqiu slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, the entrance he came in had collapsed and closed,
Even if the West Investigation Factory above wants to dig up the ground to rescue and support, it will take a long time.
What's more, there are strange White Lotus Sect demons to stop it.
That's it, let's find Xiangrui first.
At this dinner, Yu Qingqiu had already passed through the gas with Li Yushan, and set up a net to deliberately expose flaws in the Shuwang Mansion in Luzhou.
In order to catch all the ill-intentioned people who peep at Annan Xiangrui.
The plan is plump, the reality is skinny,
No one thought that a Bai Yongyan would be killed halfway,
No, that person is definitely not Bai Yongyan, but some kind of "thing" wearing Bai Yongyan's skin...
Yu Qingqiu took out a short dart from his arms and inserted it on the edge of the tunnel as a marker to inform his subordinates of his whereabouts.
As the head of Xing Qianhu in the West Investigation Factory, he shouldered the heavy responsibility of escorting Xiangrui into Beijing, and now Xiangrui is missing, which is completely incompetent.
No matter what, you have to get Xiangrui back.
"Huh?"
After Yu Qingqiu finished inserting the short dart, he took a few steps forward and found that the tunnel was winding, up and down, and there were three forks in the road in front of him.
Above the fork in the road, there is also a line of handwriting.
"Hair the seal of the hill, touch the golden talisman, move the mountains and unload the mountains to find the dragon?"
