Seeing this, Xu Rui nodded and said, "Where is the secret passage in there?" ”

"Back to the master, on the other side, for the sake of safety, the subordinates specially separated these two places when they were built."

"Well, then I'll bring this young master over now."

Li Cong seemed to hesitate for a moment, and asked tentatively, "Master, you see that it is getting dark now, and there is a secret pile that you will not let the Praetorian Guards find out when you are going out of the city, you see, do you want to have a meal and take a rest?" ”

Xu Rui was a little moved, he hadn't eaten or slept since last night, and he had to rush out of the city one after another, but he wouldn't have this opportunity at that time.

"Okay, this young master will have a meal first, and you can go and inquire about the news by the way."

"Yes." Li Cong smiled instantly, and led Xu Rui and the three to a beautiful room, and asked people to bring water and food. After Xu Rui finished eating, he took a shower and went to rest. And Li Cong went out to inquire about the news after Xu Rui fell asleep.

By the time Xu Rui woke up again, it was already late at night. Darkichi and Darker immediately greeted the movement when they noticed the movement. "Master."

Xu Rui glanced at them and then responded lightly, got up from the bed, and quickly took the robe that was placed aside to help Xu Rui put it on. After Xu Rui finished washing, he asked, "How is it outside now?" ”

"Back to my lord, now the entire imperial city is surrounded by the Praetorian Guards. No one inside the city can go out, and no one outside can come in. ”

Xu Rui didn't have any temperature on his face, and said, "How about surrounding, if you want to catch this young master first, it's not that easy." ”

Secretly pondered for a moment and said, "Master, for the sake of insurance, it's better for us to get on the road early." "He didn't feel at ease before he left the imperial city. He didn't agree with the master's intention to stay before, but he knew Xu Rui well enough, and his thoughts at that time were useless even if he objected, so he didn't say anything at that time.

Xu Rui glanced at him, but did not refute. asked, "What about Li Cong?" ”

"Stay outside. A few hours ago, when he came back from inquiring about the news, he had been standing outside and guarding it himself. ”

Xu Rui nodded when he heard this, and said, "Let him in." ”

"Yes." Then he glanced at Dark Er, and Dark Two on the side opened the door in a playful manner.

Li Cong walked in, saw Xu Rui saluting, and then said warmly for a while, and was finally interrupted by Xu Rui impatiently, so he accepted the conversation.

"The hour is not early, although the dark pile is safe, but it should not be delayed for too long, so now this young master is going to go out of Beijing, you lead the way."

"Yes, master, please come here." Hearing him say this, Li Cong hurriedly walked them towards the dark passage. Because it was already late at night and he had given some warnings to some people, the whole restaurant they walked through silently through many twists and turns, and in a short time, they came to the place of an abandoned firewood house.

Li Cong looked around, and then took out a worn-out key and opened the rusty lock. Xu Rui walked in, and Dark took out a night pearl to illuminate it. In an instant, the whole room was like daylight. However, the environment inside made Xu Rui frown.

There was dust everywhere, cobwebs all over the place, and because it was a firewood house, there was a lot of wood piled up in the corner on the side.

Li Cong on the side noticed Xu Rui's dislike, and said with a careful smile, "Master, in order to protect this secret passage, no one has come in here for several years, so please bear with me." ”
