Chapter 66: Secret Room Distress
As soon as Yun Yue's voice fell, she only heard a familiar male voice behind her, but she didn't look back, and the man called again,
"Yue'er!"
Only then did she turn around, indifferently looked at the man in Tsing Yi not far away, and said coldly: "I have nothing to do with General Chu for a long time, please call me Yunyue." ”
Ji Yan looked at this posture and simply hugged his hands, stood aside and watched the play, if there was another handful of fried peanuts in his hand, it would be even better.
Chu Zijin's eyes were dim, and he stepped forward with a lonely expression, and said, "What are you going to do?" ”
Yun Yue took a few steps back, distanced herself from him, and said bluntly: "If General Chu goes down the mountain at this moment, I, Yun Yue, will be very grateful." ”
"I'm very sorry for your sister's death, but that kid ......"
"Shut up, you don't deserve to mention my sister."
Chu Zijin still wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Ji Yan: "I said two, the prince is estimated to have entered the stone cave this time, if you don't hurry up and prepare......
"Oh? What should the prince prepare? Another voice sounded behind the crowd, and when they followed the voice, they saw that the owner of the voice was the prince.
Hearing this, the three of them turned around in astonishment, Yun Yue's eyebrows furrowed, her right hand was slightly folded, and she was about to take the jade flute on her waist, but Chu Zijin took advantage of the situation to turn around and block her behind.
Even Ji Yan didn't expect that the prince would pass through the labyrinth array of the stone cave so quickly, and he put away his squishful posture, and his expression became heavy.
The corners of the prince's mouth raised slightly, he shook his sleeves, raised his hand and patted it twice, and two guards walked out from behind him, and these two guards were dragging a person in their hands, looking at the style of clothes, it looked like a person under Chu Zijin.
The man's face was bruised, his mouth was full of blood, and he slurred and swallowed without saying a word. Chu Zijin's face was pale, and his hand hanging in his cuffs was clenched.
When the prince saw that the man was out of breath, he smacked his tongue, but said regretfully: "I saw that General Chu's men were weaker than the other, and their morale was still high, but they just scolded a few words and hanged themselves." He looked at everyone and said, "Great, everyone is here, and I don't have to bother looking for them one by one." With that, the guards he brought stepped forward one after another and surrounded Yun Yue and the others.
Ji Yan caught a glimpse of Yun Yue's movements, and he whispered, "Yueyue, don't move." ”
Seeing that Ji Yan still had the heart to speak at this moment, the prince swept over with a death gaze, and the guard next to him understood and kicked Ji Yan to the ground, Ji Yan neither said a word, nor resisted, and let the guard step on his face and rub it fiercely.
The prince walked over, squatted down, lifted Ji Yan's face, and played with taste: "Look at your face, it's a pity that you died like this." ”
Ji Yan was not annoyed, and put on a squirming appearance again, and said with a smile: "If I die, who will bring His Royal Highness the Crown Prince into the secret room?" Could it be that you can catch another guide? ”
After hearing this, the prince narrowed his eyes slightly, gently rubbed his chin with the index finger of his left hand, and after thinking about it carefully, he stopped and said, "This statement is very reasonable, let me spare your life." He straightened up and looked around, it didn't look like there was an ambush, and the worries in his heart were relieved a little.
Ji Yan wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth, got up from the ground, and gently brushed the mud and dust off his sleeves, he winked at Yun Yue, signaling her to be calm and wait for the opportunity.
For some reason, Yun Yue, who was originally restless, calmed down inexplicably, and she gently wiped the beads of sweat from her palms on her sleeves. Chu Zijin looked at the interaction between the two, and his heart was empty, and it was not even a taste.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, how are these people doing?" A young guard pointed at Yun Yue and the others.
"Kill it on the spot."
"I don't know what danger there will be in the secret room underneath, so it's better to tie these people up and bring them in, in case of any danger, there will be a cushion."
When the prince heard this, he felt very reasonable, and said, "Tie it with a rope and bring it in together." ”
The entrance to the underground chamber is hidden in the banyan forest next to the Fuxu Palace, which is an ancient banyan tree that is hundreds of years old, the green vines are densely wound around the trunk, and the thorn bushes under the roots of the tree are peeled off.
Ji Yan, Yun Yue, Chu Zijin, Mo Yu, and Yun Feng were tied to a rope, and they went down the steps into the secret passage in turn, and the prince's people followed closely behind, and when everyone went down the steps, the old man he met on the road before followed him and quietly sneaked into the dark passage.
The dark path was extremely long, and when he walked to the depths, Ji Yan suddenly stopped and shouted: "His Royal Highness the Prince, I can't see this front, can you find someone to help me take a light?" ”
The little guard who had proposed to tie up people before volunteered to lead the way at this moment, and everyone continued to walk forward, walking Yun Yue felt that the rope in her hand seemed to be loose, she looked down, it turned out that Ji Yan was secretly untying her rope, and what surprised her even more was that the little guard turned a blind eye to Ji Yan's small movements, and she suddenly realized that the little guard was also Ji Yan's person.
Until the end, Yun Feng's rope was also untied, and in order not to be seen by the prince, the five people still wrapped the rope around their wrists, pretended to be tied, and continued to walk forward.
The smell of dampness in the dark passage was extremely strong, and there was a strange smell that Yun Yue couldn't say, she could only try to hold her breath, but she never thought that the more she held her breath, the more difficult it would be, and her head became dizzy.
Ji Yan heard her rapid breathing, turned around slightly, and said in a low voice: "Don't hold your breath, just breathe normally." ”
She tried to adjust her breathing slowly, and then she gradually calmed down. Along the way, she saw a lot of white bones piled up on the wall, thinking that the people who had been exploring the secret room before had not been able to get out, but they looked at the pile of these bones in a strange way, as if they had suffered a great deal of torture in their lives.
After a while, they came to a larger chamber, and there were small holes in the chamber all around, and the light from the small holes shone through the small holes, and the chamber was full of gold, silver, and jewels.
"Hahahaha, get rich! Got rich. Some people couldn't help but pounce on it, and stuffed gold into their cuffs one by one, and the others saw that this thing of taking money could be left behind, and they all pounced on it, and their pockets were not big enough, so they stripped off their clothes and pants to wrap gold and silver.
Look at the prince again, he is worthy of being a big man who has seen the world, these jewels are just cold things in his eyes, he stands calmly and calmly, waiting for this group of vulgar people to get over the money addiction.
After praising the calmness of this prince, the next moment he panicked and shouted: "Put it down!" A bunch of stupid things! ”
Unfortunately, it was too late, the gold and silver jewels emitted green smoke, and everyone who touched the gold and silver was also stained with green smoke, and their faces and hands began to fester, swollen, and make a sizzling sound, and then the skin of the whole body disappeared little by little, and the flesh was naked with bones, and finally accompanied by a heart-rending scream, the flesh turned into a pool of blood, leaving only a pile of distorted, lonely white bones.
