Chapter Seventy-Eight: Something Happened
A drizzle hit in the early morning, and the entire city of Lining was immersed in misty smoke and rain
Li Zhilian listened to the sound of the rain outside the door through the window, and only felt a faint uneasiness in his heart
The water droplets on the newborn branches and buds in the courtyard shook instantly, and suddenly fell, wetting the clothes on Shen Chun's shoulders
"Papapa~"
"Miss Zhilian ~ Master Zhou is waiting for you in the main hall"
Li Zhilian got up and opened the door, and said suspiciously: "Master Zhou? ”
Shen Chun nodded and said, "Yes!" It was raining outside, and he didn't bring an umbrella, so he looked like he was in a hurry."
Li Zhipian didn't bother to respond to Shen Chun, raised his leg and ran towards the main hall of the Shen family
Shen Chun was behind her, holding an umbrella and shouting loudly: "Miss Zhilian~"
"Slow down"
"It's raining!"
"Be careful not to catch a cold......"
Li Zhilian rushed into the main hall, wiped his face with his wide sleeves, and saw Zhou Cheng soaking wet, and water droplets slipped down from the broken hair on his forehead
She was stunned for a moment, slowly put down her hand, and asked, "Gongzi Zhou, but what happened?" ”
Zhou Cheng looked at her with a terrifying glint in his eyes: "Did Lord Shen and Li Jianqing go to Fuhu Mountain?" ”
Li Zhilian was frightened by Zhou Cheng's appearance, and shook his head blankly: "The teacher didn't say it, but according to the current situation, they should go to Fuhu Mountain."
Zhou Cheng tensed his body, stiffly took out a piece of rice paper from his arms and spread it out on the table, and said: "I went to Du Shangshu's house last night to find the two porcelain vases, and I went to the house of Master Qin Yan, who will be a master craftsman, overnight......" As he spoke, he paused and raised his eyes to look at her
Li Zhilian looked at the pattern on the rice paper, and then looked at Zhou Cheng, and suddenly understood in his heart, but he still said in disbelief: "What did Master Qin Yan say?" ”
Zhou Cheng looked at her, pointed to the last picture and said: "This is the main hall of the mausoleum, the door of the main hall is called the jack gate, once someone enters the main hall, the mechanism will be triggered, the jack gate falls, they will be trapped inside, this is still the best result, if they build the mausoleum, they are also filled with poison gas or other things, then the person who enters will die"
Li Zhilian only felt that his legs were weak, and he sat on the chair with his support on the table, and only stood up abruptly after a long time, and staggered towards the door
Zhou Cheng grabbed her and said loudly, "Where are you going?" ”
Li Zhilian shook off his hand and said, "I'll go tell the teacher, maybe they have something to delay on the road, and they haven't gotten there yet?" ”
Zhou Cheng grabbed his arm with his backhand, and his voice was much louder than usual, and he scolded: "Then what if they have already gone in?" What's the use of you rushing over now, it's better to think of a way first, how to move the jack gate"
Li Zhilian stared at Zhou Cheng and shouted, "Then I'll blow up that jack gate" coldly shook off Zhou Cheng's hand
The sleeves swiped through Zhou Cheng's fingertips, and he couldn't grasp Li Zhilian's hand, so he had to say softly: "What do you need?" I'll help you find it."
Li Zhilian's body trembled, stopped, and after holding back his tears, he turned around and looked at Zhou Cheng and said, "Saltpeter, sulfur, charcoal"
Zhou Cheng nodded: "I'll go ...... now"
In the cave of the Mt. Yama Mountain Range, a firelight moved slowly from far and near, and it was the official led by Shen Zhitang and Li Jianqing
Li Jianqing held a torch and shone it around, the road ahead was dark, and the hole was twisting and turning, and he didn't know where the end was
He turned around and glanced at Shen Zhitang, pulled Zhang Yu out, and asked, "Are you sure it's this way?" ”
Zhang Yu said "um~" and said: "Except for the stone room at the end that can't be opened, the organs here have all been destroyed by us, don't worry!" ”
Li Jianqing turned around and looked at Shen Zhitang, and after Shen Zhitang nodded, he continued to walk forward slowly with the torch
After walking through a bend, his eyes suddenly opened up, he raised the fire high, and shone it around, he couldn't help but be startled, the dirty blood on the ground was flowing everywhere, he squatted down, his fingertips picked up a little dirty blood and sniffed it on the tip of his nose, looked up at Shen Zhitang and said: "It's human blood, it should be five or six days to look at the color."
Shen Zhitang was also stunned, and both of them turned their heads to look at Zhang Yu
Zhang Yu pretended to look at the stone wall in the distance, Shen Zhitang saw this, shook his head at Li Jianqing, and then signaled the officials to be careful
Li Jianqing stood up, held the torch, and continued to walk forward slowly, suddenly his feet were soft, as if he had stepped on something, he looked down, the gravel on the ground cracked, revealing a wooden board below, he immediately understood, this is a mechanism, and the weapon fired should be a hidden weapon such as an arrow, but it has been completely destroyed by someone
At this time, a servant came over and reported: "My lord~ no body was found"
Shen Zhitang nodded and said, "Keep moving forward, be careful"
Li Jianqing took the lead in groping in the cave, and his steps gradually slowed down
As soon as he walked around a corner, there was a "poof", his torch was extinguished, and a palm wind came from the darkness, straight to his neck, Li Jianqing turned around sharply, dodged the fatal blow, and when he turned back again, there was no sound
At this time, Shen Zhitang had already arrived, looked at Li Jianqing who was leaning against the stone wall, and asked, "Jianqing~ What happened, why did your torch suddenly go out?" ”
Li Jianqing stood up, looked at the empty cave in the distance, and then looked back at Shen Zhitang, and wondered: "It's Zhang Yu~ But in such a short time, where can he hide?" ”
Shen Zhitang beckoned to the official behind him, took a torch, and said while tapping along the stone wall: "There should be some mechanism around here."
A servant covered his head, slowly looked at the sky, suddenly screamed, sat on the ground and pointed his fingers upwards and shouted: "Above~ There are people above"
At this moment, Li Jianqing's body had bounced up like lightning, and at the same time, Zhang Yu's fist also arrived in front of him, Li Jianqing twisted slightly, and also stretched out his fist to face Zhang Yu's fist, and with a "whoosh", Zhang Yu disappeared again
The officials looked around with torches, and Shen Zhitang said: "Leave a few people here to guard, report when you see Zhang Yu, and the others will follow me inside."
