There was also a small bowl underneath the Luohan bed, and there was some eel soup in the small bowl, and there were several blood clots in the soup - presumably eel blood - and the smell of eel was in the air.

"Is all this his?"

Wuji nodded: "I was specially serving him, but he never let me sleep in the meditation room." ”

"Where do you usually sleep?"

"Wuji and the other masters sleep in the Beinuan Pavilion in front."

"You are dedicated to serving him, and if you don't sleep here, how can you serve him?"

"When Wuji enters this Heart Nourishing Palace, the time is set by him, and usually, Wuji can't come to the Heart Nourishing Palace."

"How did you really arrange the time when you came to the Heart Cultivation Palace?"

"Deliver three meals in the morning, noon and evening, and when you come, bring a bottle of boiling water."

The information provided by Wuji was very important, Jingping might still be alive, at least, there might be one more inside the chamber - or even a few mouths.

Master Chen took out a small hammer and a driver from his bag, and he wanted to pry open the floor under the screen and bonsai.

Master Yan had just taken the hammer from his apprentice's hand, and suddenly raised his left hand, put it to his lips and "shh

Zhao Zimeng, Li Daping, Ling Hu Yunfei and Xiang Daimo squatted down and turned their ears sideways. The other SWAT officers who had come forward stopped.

The room fell silent.

Everyone listened for a while, but there was no sound, only the sound of everyone's breathing.

"Master Yan, what did you hear?" Zhao Zimeng said in a low voice.

"Just now, I heard a strange sound—it rang twice."

"Master, you can knock twice on the floor and try it." Master Chen also said in a low voice.

Master Yan knocked twice on the floor with a hammer: "Knock-knock".

A few seconds later, two voices came from under the floor: "Knock-knock-"

Everyone heard it, it was quiet, it was a little muffled—it seemed to come from underground, but everyone heard it.

Zhao Zimeng took the hammer from Master Yan's hand and knocked it heavily on the floor three times: "Knock-knock-knock." ”

Immediately afterward, there were three more voices from under the floor: "Knock-knock-knock", this time, a little louder than before.

Zhao Zimeng knocked twice more.

Two more responses from under the floor.

The entrance to the chamber is just below the floor, and there are people inside.

Xiang Daimo and Linghu Yunfei dragged the paralyzed Elder Zhizhen to the front of the screen—Zhizhen sat on the floor with his hat falling on the floor.

"True, where is the entrance to the secret room?"

Zhizhen hung his head, and his ears and heels and neck were full of beads of sweat.

Zhao Zimeng walked up to Zhizhen, grabbed his hair and pulled it back, and shouted: "Say it quickly!" ”

Zhizhen raised his hand and pointed to the right side of the curtain.

"Drag him over and let him drive on his own." Zhao Zimeng waved his hand.

Xiang Daimo and Ling Hu Yunfei dragged Zhizhen to the right side of the door curtain, there was a lattice window on the right side of the curtain, and between the curtain and the lattice window, there was a wooden wall about two meters wide.

Zhizhen supported his body with one left leg and rested his right toe on the floor.

Everyone's heart is in their throats.

Zhao Zimeng and his comrades-in-arms have worked hard to finally see the results today.

Zhizhen pressed his right hand on a circular relief, pushed it to the right, and the circular relief shifted two or three centimeters to the right. At this time, Zhizhen's hand still did not let go, he turned his wrist and pressed the counterclockwise to turn the relief, and soon, the circular relief began to do counterclockwise turning.

Immediately afterwards, the screen and the floor under the bonsai are separated in a concave and convex shape.

One centimeter, two centimeters, three centimeters. A concave and convex opening gradually unfolds.

Zhao Zimeng, Ling Hu Yunfei, Li Daping and Master Yan squatted on the north side of the cave entrance to carefully observe the situation at the cave entrance

Below the entrance are several steps that descend downward.

No wonder the sound of the hammer hitting the floor was so real, it turned out that the floor was only a part of the secret tunnel mechanism - there was a wooden board about ten centimeters thick underneath the floor, and the floor was attached to this wooden board about ten centimeters thick.

The entrance of the cave is getting bigger and bigger, Zhao Zimeng wants to see people, but unfortunately there is a black rumbling under the entrance of the cave, so it can be seen that the sound of response under the floor is not under the ten-centimeter-thick plank, the sound source may be in a deeper place, in Zhao Zimeng's opinion, there may be a door under the entrance of the cave.

The secret door slowly hid under the wooden wall. A few minutes later, the secret door came to an abrupt end, and a concave and convex opening about 80 centimeters long and 90 centimeters wide appeared in front of everyone.

Wuji rolled up the curtain and fixed the curtain at a height of 1.5 meters with a rope, so that the light inside the room was brighter.

Zhao Zimeng and Ling Huyunfei walked to the door and looked towards the corridor, and the two of them finally understood: the corridor was paved with floor tiles, which were about thirty centimeters higher than the indoor floor, and the secret door was hidden under the floor tiles.

Who would have thought that the entrance to the secret room would be placed in the doorway and the secret door hidden under the floor tiles in the hallway? It would be even harder to think of by placing a screen and two bonsai above the secret door.

Lin Di took a cover lamp from the incense case, and Ma Jianping took out a lighter from his pocket and lit the lamp - everyone forgot to bring flashlights and emergency lights when they came. Fortunately, one light is enough.

There may also be a light in the chamber.

"Zhizhen, how many people are down there?" Zhao Zimeng looked at the chaff who was sifting the chaff and said sharply.

"Two people."

Zhao Zimeng and Ling Hu Yunfei looked at each other for a moment.

"Which two?"

Zhizhen leaned against the wall, like a mess of mud that could not be pasted on the wall.

Xiao Luhan flew up and stepped the right leg of the Supreme Elder: "Say it quickly!" ”

Zhizhen held his right leg with both hands, and at the same time grinned: "One-one is Ming-Chenji-Jingping, and the other is-Qingshui." ”

"Is there another door down there?"

Zhizhen trembled and untied a bunch of keys from the waistband of his trousers, and then picked out a copper key, his hand trembled very much, his face was dull, originally earthy gray, and now, Zhizhen's face was like a pig's liver that had been hanging for three days.

Xiang Daimo took the key from Zhizhen's hand.

Li Daping took the hood lamp from Lin Di's hand and was the first to enter the entrance of the secret room. Lindy followed. Because the entrance is too small, two people can only enter through the stream. The first staircase from east to west,

The second to enter the entrance were Zhao Zimeng and Master Yan, and below, Ling Hu Yunfei, the other two special police, and then Xiang Daimo and Ma Jianping.

Walking on the stone steps of the first level, people should bend a little, and with the stone steps turning south, everyone slowly straightens up, and there are six steps to the south.

After completing the six steps facing south, the steps turn to the north.

After descending the six stone steps, a wooden door appeared in front of everyone, and the sound of "knock-knock-knock" under the floor should have been transmitted from this door to the ground.

There was a faint light on the other side of the door.

There was no sound on the other side of the door—at this moment, there should be a sound. Isn't the arrival of the comrades scared Jing Ping and Qing Shui? Unclear about the situation, they can only remain silent.

Zhao Zimeng knocked on the door three times: "Knock-knock-knock." ”

On the other side of the door, there was still no response.

Linghu Yunfei also knocked on the door three times, and the sound was much louder than Zhao Zimeng's knock.

There is still no reaction inside.

"Master Jingping, Master Qingshui, don't be afraid, we are the people's police, and we are here to save you."

There was still no echo, but there was already movement on the other side of the door, Zhao Zimeng and Ling Hu Yunfei heard the sound of rustling, and there was a very low voice mixed with the sound of rustling, as for what was said, I couldn't hear it clearly.

"Lian Luodan, after you disappeared, your mother Lan Simeng went to the Public Security Bureau to report the case, and we are here to save you." Zhao Zimeng said loudly.

"It's really a cop." On the other side of the door, a voice said, "Jingping, the police are calling your name." ”

Immediately afterwards, everyone heard footsteps, and it was clear that the two women were hiding far away from the wooden door.

Through the crack in the door, Zhao Zimeng saw two blurry figures walking towards the door, they were supporting each other - herringbone, walking staggeringly, looking very difficult, one of the figures held a cover lamp in his hand, the light was very weak, the wick was beating very strongly, and from time to time there was a "pop-pop" sound.

There was a copper lock on the door, and Xiang Daimo opened the copper lock with a key.

Zhao Zimeng pushed open the wooden door, and a tragic scene came into everyone's eyes: two women with disheveled hair limped, supporting each other, and walking towards everyone, when Zhao Zimeng pushed the door open, the two women were about six or seven meters away from everyone, and the faint light reflected two unbearable faces, only a small part of the face could be seen, and the long and messy hair covered most of the face.

"Lin Di, hurry!" Zhao Zimeng said loudly.

Everyone stepped aside, Lin Di ran over, and when Lin Di grabbed a woman's arm, one woman fell into Lin Di's arms, and the other woman collapsed to the ground.

Lindy took a step back and leaned against the wall.

Linghu Yunfei rushed up and supported Lin Di.

Both women fainted.

There was some dampness in the tunnels, but there was no smell of decay. The two women did not have a single smell on their bodies except for their hair being scattered. There may be a peculiar smell, but it is masked by a faint fragrance.

Everyone carried the two women out of the secret room.

The bodies of the two women were cold and cold, and everyone put them flat on the real Arhat bed, and Lin Di covered a futon on the two of them.

"Commander Wuwen, please take their pulse."

Lu Qian brought a chair and placed it next to Luohan's bed.

Sitting in a chair, he rolled up a woman's sleeve and placed his index and middle fingers on his pulse.

It stands to reason that the comrades should be able to recognize Jingping, because everyone has seen Jingping's photo, but the comrades still don't recognize it, because the hair of the two women covers most of their faces.
