Chapter XXXVIII

"Qingxi Town?" Lin Xiaozhu's heart churned. If this hole really leads to the outside, and she walks out directly from here, will she be able to break free from Yuan Tianye's control and escape?

After thinking about it, she shook her head. In my impression, it seems that the ancient household registration system was also very strictly managed, and the punishment for fugitive slaves was quite severe. She escaped from here, walking on two feet, could she escape Yuan Tianye's little fox's net? Besides, she now has dozens of copper plates on her body, and if she wants to hide in Tibet and wait for the wind to pass, she is afraid that she will starve to death long ago. Not to mention that she is powerless, any adult man can catch her. Whether ancient or modern, there are a lot of bad guys. Leaving the wolf's den and entering the tiger's den, that is not a tragic word can be described. At least Yuan Tianye is still a good master, making her live an extremely happy life. Although the pig lived a good life before it was killed, it was so comfortable, wasn't it? It's better than the fate of living a long life and always suffering.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiaozhu decided not to consider the escape incident for the time being. Perhaps, this is still a move by Yuan Tianye, and he wants to see if they will run away if they find this cave. Put a pocket at the end of the cave, whoever they are, as long as they run, it's over.

"Lin Xiaozhu, Lin Xiaozhu ......" Su Xiaoshu's shout was faintly heard in the distance. Lin Xiaozhu quickly ran to the place where she slid down, looked at it, and found that there was a step like a staircase next to it, climbed to the ground in three steps and two steps, picked up the dead grass next to her and covered the one-meter-square hole, and ran in the direction of Su Xiaoshu's voice.

Although he was not ready to escape, since he found that cave, Lin Xiaozhu felt a little itchy in his heart, and he always wanted to try that way. If you can really get to the town, it would be nice to go out and walk around. Locked up here, she doesn't know anything about the outside world, and she hasn't even inquired about any dynasty, if she really has the opportunity to leave here one day and know what the outside world is like, she can also make preparations, right?

Besides, Yuan Tianye was able to spare Wu Caiyun, not because of soft-heartedness, let alone looking at her Lin Xiaozhu's face, but because he felt that Wu Caiyun was still useful. Lin Xiaozhu thinks that he has more brains and is better than Wu Caiyun, even if Yuan Tianye catches her, for the sake of her usefulness, he won't sell her to any bad place, right?

As soon as the idea of trying that road came to me, it was like a pot of boiling hot water, and it couldn't be covered no matter how much it was covered. After three days of tossing and turning, and after being asked "what's wrong with you" by Su Xiaoshu several times, Lin Xiaozhu decided to try the hole.

The first thing she did was to change her habit of being with Su Xiaoshu, and as soon as she went up the mountain every day, she suggested that she should be separated, and then reunite. The other girls in the dormitory have long since stopped gathering together to collect firewood as they did at the beginning. In addition, no one has encountered danger on the mountain for so long, Su Xiaoshu didn't care, and went to collect firewood by himself.

After solving Su Xiaoshu, Lin Xiaozhu began to act. Although Yuan Tianye was not in the villa, she still didn't dare to take the money she hid in the bricks, so as not to startle the snake. That day, she picked up the firewood early, and then said that she would pick wild fruits, get rid of Su Xiaoshu, and start acting alone.

She deliberately walked in a different direction for a while, and then quietly hid to see if anyone was following behind her. Although she knew that if Yuan Jiu and the others really wanted to follow her, with their own skills, they would not be able to find out at all. But either way, it never hurts to be careful.

After checking it twice, except for the wind blowing the leaves and the occasional birdsong, Lin Xiaozhu didn't find any movement. She immediately turned a corner and ran in the direction of the hole. When she got to the neighborhood, she hid again, and to make sure that there was no one behind her, she lifted the dead grass and went down from the hole.

Everything in the cave was the same as it had been before she left. Lin Xiaozhu took out a torch he had secretly made from his arms, settled down, and walked in resolutely. Since she wants to do everything, she will not think about it and hesitate. Anyway, if you go in this time, you may not be able to finish the whole hole. As soon as she feels scared or wrong, she can immediately withdraw and stop thinking about it.

After taking a few steps inside, the sound of "gurgling" water became clearer and clearer. It was three or four o'clock in the afternoon in modern times, and the sunlight was shining obliquely through the entrance of the cave, and a path more than a meter wide in front of it clearly stretched inward. On the side of the path, a small stream flowing happily forward. Originally, such a cave must have been dark in front of it. But what made Lin Xiaozhu strange was that he walked in for a while, and when the light reflected in the entrance of the cave was almost gone, there was a bright light not far in front of him.

Light always makes people not afraid. Lin Xiaozhu walked forward for a while, and saw that there seemed to be a hole above her head, and the afternoon sun shone directly on the stone wall of Baihuahua through some weeds, reflecting the light on the road she was walking on. A short walk further on, a similar hole appeared overhead. Lin Xiaozhu was relieved, knowing that he didn't have much time, so he quickened his pace.

The simple map said that it was halfway, but Lin Xiaozhu felt that he had only walked two teas, and then he saw that under the sunlight of the cave entrance in front, a neatly built stone wall blocked the way. She walked briskly there, reached out and touched the stone wall in front of her, and looked up. But he found himself like a frog at the bottom of a well, and saw a round sky above.

Is this a dry well?

Lin Xiaozhu looked at the wall of the well, and soon found that there were iron steps on it, which could be climbed by anyone.

Anyway, things have been done, and they have come to this point. Even if it was a pocket under Yuan Tianye's cloth, Lin Xiaozhu recognized it. She listened to the fact that there was no movement on the well, and without the slightest hesitation, she climbed up step by step.

Popping his head out, Lin Xiaozhu looked around. I found that this seems to be the backyard of a family, the yard is not big, that is, seventy or eighty square meters, the yard is overgrown with weeds, the houses are dilapidated, and there is a hoe not far away, and the rust on the hoe is stained, it seems that no one has lived here for a long time.

She quickly climbed up from the well, walked around the yard, and stood straight in front of a door. Cautiously reaching out and gently pushing the door, the door crudely carved with the pattern of magpie and plum squeaked open, and a small hall full of dust appeared in front of him. There was nothing in this hall except for a case and two Taishi chairs.

Walking into the hall, I opened another door, and there was a courtyard in front of it. However, this courtyard is much larger than the back, a locust tree is planted in the east corner of the courtyard, and there is a well under the west corner, and outside the well are a few clusters of purple wild chrysanthemums, which are blooming brilliantly and brilliantly, and are extremely beautiful.
