"I've checked it all, except for a few who resisted and were summarily executed, there's nothing special."

One of the accompanying soldiers replied immediately.

Zong Jiyuan nodded when he heard this, but he still walked there, and when Sobra and Diao Saburo saw this scene, they also hurriedly followed.

"What's wrong? Did you find something? ”

Sobra asked curiously as she followed.

Zong Jiyuan shook his head lightly and said,

"That's not it, it's just that I feel a little concerned about the location of this yard."

While talking, several people had come to the back door of the courtyard wall, Zong Jiyuan stretched out his hand to open the small door, and when he heard that it was very quiet inside, he stepped in.

Walking along the already familiar Yongtong paved with blue bricks, to the small garden at the back, Zong Jiyuan looked around, then turned back and asked the soldiers who followed behind,

"Isn't there anyone guarding here?"

"Yes, there are ten brothers left, probably all of them in front."

The soldier replied.

Zong Jiyuan nodded and said,

"Tell them to come over, I have something to ask."

"This ......"

Unable to figure out whether to listen to the young man in front of him, the soldier hesitated to look at Sobra on the side.

When Sobra saw this, he said angrily and funny,

"What do you want me to do? If you want to go, go quickly! ”

"Huh!"

The soldier hurriedly ran to look for it, and after a short time, he found another soldier who was staying here.

Zong Jiyuan didn't delay any longer, stepped forward and asked,

"Now that you've checked, do you know who lives here?"

"I guess it's a very important person among these thieves,"

The later soldier guessed and replied,

"But we asked the servants, and they didn't know."

"I don't know?"

Zong Jiyuan frowned,

"Didn't you find the owner of this place?"

"Nope,"

The soldier replied,

"When we came in, we only met the thieves who were guarding the courtyard here, and because they were still resisting, we killed them."

"Did the servants kill them too?"

Zong Jiyuan asked.

The soldiers waved their hands again and again, saying,

"No, no, we didn't kill innocents indiscriminately, those servants were all locked up in the firewood room by us!"

"Really?"

Zong Jiyuan thought about it and asked,

"Are there young men and girls among those servants, then?"

"It doesn't seem like there is,"

The soldier recalled,

"The servants all look very old."

"Oh, well, go ahead, I don't have anything more to ask."

Zong Jiyuan nodded, and said in his heart, could it be that Xiaoyue and Yuchun were also hiding in the crypt? If the officers and soldiers had attacked suddenly, and it was in the middle of the night, the two children would not have had time to rush to the "blacksmith shop." Moreover, since Yu Chunyao was able to settle her son here, there must be some place connected to their underground lair here.

Thinking of this, Zong Jiyuan didn't say anything anymore, just silently searched around, thinking about where the hole should be as he searched.

Sobra and Diao Saburo saw her thoughtful look, and they didn't bother, so they had to follow behind her and look at the young and old master to see what she was paying attention to.

In this way, from the garden to the west courtyard, a neighing of horses reached his ears, and immediately reminded Zong Jiyuan-

Yes, if these bandits and bandits generally can't travel without horses, will the tunnel entrance that connects with the crypt be in the stable?

Thinking of this, Zong Jiyuan followed the sound of the neighing of the horse and walked quickly in the direction of the stable, and the others had to follow. When I arrived here, I saw that there were really not a few horses left in the trough, there were more than a dozen.

Zong Ji Yuan asked the horses to be led out, and he went to the shed to inspect it carefully. The stable was surrounded by walls on three sides, and on the inner side were large wooden planks that had been installed, and after a little thought, Zong Jiyuan stretched out his hand and began to knock and listen to the planks one by one.

Finally, when her knuckles hit one of the boards, the sound began to become hollow, and Zong Jiyuan immediately stretched out his hands and pressed on it, until the whole piece of wood broke away from the wall, and a space that looked like a dark grid appeared in front of everyone.

By this time, it was already getting dark, and the entrance to this dark compartment was large enough for an adult to pass back and forth with a slight bend. Zong Jiyuan didn't say a word, and as soon as he lowered his head, he went straight in, and Sobra and Diao Saburo behind him didn't have time to stop him, after all, Diao Saburo, who was the head catcher, had been handling cases all year round, and his relative reaction was naturally faster, and he also followed in with a placket at that time.

Inside was a narrow passage, but it was not long, only about six or seven meters away, and when Zong Jiyuan walked through this passage and came to the place where the light was revealed, suddenly, a black shadow rushed up to him.

Although Zong Jiyuan is not particularly good at hand-to-hand combat, his ability to dodge is still very strong, and he flashed to the side in an instant, and his left palm has slapped the back of the attacker who pounced in the air.

But what I really didn't expect was that the other party was so weak, I thought I would have to make a few more moves, but he was beaten to the ground by Zong Jiyuan with just this blow, and was pressed to the ground by Diao Saburo who came afterwards with his knees.

"Don't move!"

"Brother Kun!"

Before everyone could figure out what kind of person the attacker in front of them was, a little girl cried and pounced again.

Zong Jiyuan saw clearly at this time that these two people were Youkun and Li Xiaoyue, and he couldn't help but pull her back with tears and laughter, and said,

"Xiaoyue, don't be afraid, it's me, remember? The one with your Uncle Wang Yu! ”

"Ah, yes...... You ......"

Through the surrounding lights, Satsuki looked at Zong Jiyuan in surprise with big eyes full of tears,

"You, then, this ...... Brother, please don't arrest Brother Kun......"

"Satsuki ......"

Zong Jiyuan took the opportunity to hold her and quickly whispered in Xiao Yue's ear,

"Don't mention who he is."

Then he raised his voice again,

"Don't be afraid, we're here to bring you home!"

"Ji Yuan,"

Diao Saburo looked a little puzzled on the side, although he didn't hear what Zong Jiyuan whispered to Xiao Yue, it could be seen from the look of the conversation between them that they should know each other.

"Do you know these two children? Who the hell are they? ”

"Oh, this girl is Li Xiaoyue, who was not found when the Fengming Villa case was solved, the daughter of Li Shunfeng and his wife in the Shunfeng Dart Bureau, it seems that she was taken captive here."

As he spoke, Zong Jiyuan motioned for him to let go of Yukun, and then pulled him up from the ground and said,

"Well, this kid must have been taken captive here by those thieves."

As he said this, he secretly glanced at Yukun.
