Listening to Qingyun's words, Mo Hanfei clenched his fists tightly, and then with a wave of his sleeves, a teacup on the table flew out, but he didn't want to lose his temper with Qingyun, so the teacup flew past Qingyun's side and smashed into pieces on the wall behind Qingyun.

Qingyun hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to continue speaking.

Ji Mo Hanfei pursed his lips and withdrew his hand, and calmed down in the blink of an eye: "The other party not only understands Yu Zhen's temperament, but also knows my affairs very well, after all, there are not many people who know You Shulan, and not many people have seen her...... Yan Duo listened to Yu Zhen's order to investigate, so let her continue to do it, and so did Quicksand. Qingyun, you will go to the light source jade mine to guard, and also scatter to inquire about Yu Zhen's whereabouts, if the princess is gone, you don't have to come back. ”

Qingyun's face suddenly turned a little paler, but he still bowed respectfully: "Yes." ”

******

Jiao Yuzhen felt that her stomach was very hungry, she leaned on those haystacks, and felt panicked, but she couldn't grab her back by herself, and when she was thrown here in the afternoon, she had a clear look at the underground, and the secret passages below were a little strange, because although those were secret passages, they were neatly beaten and very spacious, how strange they looked, as if they were not used to escape or hide, but were used for transportation.

After the word "smuggling" popped up in his mind, Jiao Yuzhen was thinking about what to smuggle in order to need such a spacious and large underground secret passage, and how much manpower and material resources would it take to open this secret passage?

Suddenly, the door of the firewood room was opened, and the candlelight shone in, Jiao Yuzhen withdrew her gaze from the ground, and when she raised her eyes, it turned out to be Sister-in-law Zhou and her husband Zhou Wenlin.

Sister-in-law Zhou handed the candlestick in her hand to Zhou Wenlin behind her, and then made a silent movement with her fingers on her lips, and then walked to Jiao Yuzhen's side, untied all the ropes tied to her, and spoke while untying the rope: "No matter who you are, I believe what you say, there is indeed a secret passage under the village, more than half a year ago, my husband and I found a hole in the ground next to the kitchen stove, I wanted to plug the hole in the ground, but accidentally made it bigger, It looked dark inside, and there was an echo of shouting, and I was worried about both, so I covered it with plaster, and put a big basket on top of it. ”

"Just believe it. Then you should also know that I am really not a pity. Jiao Yuzhen didn't expect that this sister-in-law Zhou, who would beat and scold her, was the first person to believe in her.

"I believe it." Sister-in-law Zhou glanced at Jiao Yuzhen angrily, and her eyes were clearly watching her five coins fly away.

Untied Jiao Yuzhen, Sister-in-law Zhou and Zhou Wenlin took Jiao Yuzhen back to their house, if it was normal, there were people walking around the village at night, but now that there are robbers coming, everyone is trying to escape, and the figures who happened to walk by at night are all carrying burdens, and no one can care about looking at Sister-in-law Zhou and them a few more times, so the plan to rescue Jiao Yuzhen is extremely smooth.

In fact, it's not just other villagers, even Sister-in-law Zhou and Zhou Wenlin have already packed up their bags and even dry food and water, but they are a little different from other villagers, the direction of their escape is not outside the village, but underground, but it's not that they are selfish and don't go to talk to other villagers, after all, they didn't dare to say it when they saw Jiao Yuzhen being tied up after telling the truth.

Jiao Yuzhen was also too lazy to care what Sister-in-law Zhou thought, when she saw the big hole in the kitchen, her eyes lit up, and she had to rejoice that Sister-in-law Zhou's life was really good: "This hole seems to have collapsed after a long period of disrepair, otherwise it would be very difficult to dig such a deep cave." ”

"So this is the secret passage that connects you, right? Where does this secret passage lead? Sister-in-law Zhou asked softly.

"One end from the north, the other to the south, if I guess correctly, this is a secret passage for smuggling, starting from the border of the north and going all the way to the south of Qingguo...... You might even be able to get to the vicinity of the capital! Jiao Yuzhen's eyes are not omnipotent, at least she can't see the end of the secret passage now, so she can only guess, "If the secret passage is really that long, then there must be other exits on the way to the ground, if this secret passage is not that long...... At least you can leave the confines of this Lixiang Village. ”

"What if...... If...... There is no exit from the secret passage......" Zhou Wenlin was a poor scholar, and he opened his mouth to ask tremblingly.

"You're worthless." Sister-in-law Zhou slapped Zhou Wenlin on the back of the head: "Even if there is no exit, we can be regarded as being buried in the ground, which is much better than being killed by robbers here and the violent corpse wilderness." ”

Zhou Wenlin has always been cowardly, and Zhou's sister-in-law is in charge of the inside and outside, and he is not angry when he is beaten, but he doesn't dare to say anything anymore.

"If it's all packed, we'll go now." Jiao Yuzhen's apricot eyes were full of golden light, and from a distance, he could vaguely see people gathering in the distance, although there was a distance from Lixiang Village, and the speed at which those people surrounded him was very slow, but at least it could prove that those robbers did not start after three days, they had already released their words, obviously to let these people flee around with valuable things, so that they could save a lot of time rummaging for valuable things!

"Let's go now......" This time, even Sister-in-law Zhou was a little hesitant, after all, this is a place where they have been living for so long, and they are naturally reluctant to leave.

"Let's go. There are already robbers coming. Jiao Yuzhen didn't say much, as soon as his body was crooked, he jumped directly into the hole that was one person wide, and his body slid into the secret passage.

A little girl has such courage, Sister-in-law Zhou and Zhou Wenlin glanced at each other, and also jumped in with their suits, but when Sister-in-law Zhou jumped down, she didn't know what she had encountered, and the hole collapsed into it like this, so that when she fell into the secret passage, fortunately she was quickly pulled out by Jiao Yuzhen's eyes, otherwise she would have been buried alive by the soil.

"Thank you, thank you......" Sister-in-law Zhou finally squeezed out a word of thanks from her mouth, after all, she was still a little frightened at this moment, the candle in her hand was gone when she came down just now, although the burden on her back was still there, but she was stained with mud and dirty.

"You're welcome." Although she said this, Jiao Yuzhen instinctively raised her head to look at the hole that fell, the moment the soil collapsed just now, she could see it clearly, there was a red light flickering, not the light of a candle, the red light was very weak, very small, flashing, but she caught it, but for them, this hole collapsed, I was afraid that no one would think that they were underground, but ...... There is no way back for them.

Zhou Wenlin took a fire fold out and blew it, illuminating the palm-sized place in front of him with the faint candlelight, but it was still dark in the distance, except for the sound of their breathing, there was no sound, which made his not strong body tremble slightly.

As long as Jiao Yuzhen is willing, she can see everything clearly at night as well as during the day, so she has never been afraid of the dark, so she said goodbye to the south, and then said: "You guys follow me, at least you have to leave this Lixiang Village, but you can't be discovered by robbers, so be careful and quiet." ”

After the scene just now, Sister-in-law Zhou no longer had her usual anger, and nodded again and again, as for Zhou Wenlin, he didn't dare to breathe.

Walking for a long time in the dark secret passage is very challenging for people's mental power, after all, in the sealed space, anyone will be afraid of the endless darkness and the road ahead, so although Sister-in-law Zhou is usually domineering and strong, but at this time, she is like a bird snuggling in Zhou Wenlin's arms, and the two of them support each other to move forward.

Although most people are afraid of the secret room, Jiao Yuzhen has never been afraid, because she can see the outside, she walked forward, while seeing the secret passage ahead, she could also see the robbers and people on the ground, those robbers are five big and three thick men, carrying various weapons in their hands, under the light of the torches behind them, slashing and killing those fleeing people is as easy as chopping melons and vegetables, and even in some places, Jiao Yuzhen can also see the blood seeping down from the soil.

Suddenly, Jiao Yuzhen's footsteps paused, she stared closely at the ground in the lead, her face was gloomy, even Sister-in-law Zhou, who had always been very bold, was startled, and said tremblingly: "Girl...... What, what's wrong? ”

Jiao Yuzhen stared at the ground tightly, because there was a person on the ground in front of her, that was the Aunt Ma she had seen during the day, at this moment, Aunt Ma's clothes were covered with blood, and her slightly chubby body was no longer moving, but there was still a child hiding under her, that child Jiao Yuzhen had also seen it during the day, it seemed to be the child of Aunt Ma's family, but unfortunately at this time the child was also white and out of breath.

If...... If these villagers of Lixiang Village believed her and went down to the secret passage together, then they would not have died, Aunt Ma...... I even talked to her during the day!

Suddenly, Jiao Yuzhen saw a thin man among those strong and burly robbers, it was the man who told her to lie and incited everyone to catch her during the day!

It's really "a thief shouting to catch a thief", that man is the spy sent by the robbers to Lixiang Village, and she is the one who was wronged!

"The man who said I was a spy in the village today, do you all know me?" Jiao Yuzhen turned around to look at Sister-in-law Zhou and Zhou Wenlin, and asked.

"I know, isn't he the dog leftover from Liu Er's family. That guy wasn't actually a good guy either, and he followed a gangster in the town, and no one in the village wanted to see him. Zhou Wenlin whispered.

"This man is the spy of the robbers." Jiao Yuzhen pointed to the top of his head, "The people in Lixiang Village should have been killed by him, and they died seventy-seven, eighty-eight, even Aunt Ma's family died." If everyone had believed me at the beginning and followed me to the secret passage, then I wouldn't have died. ”

Sister-in-law Zhou and Zhou Wenlin's faces turned pale with a "swish", and they looked at Jiao Yuzhen with straight eyes.

"You...... Who the hell are you? Sister-in-law Zhou didn't doubt Jiao Yuzhen's words, in fact, as early as the daytime, Jiao Yuzhen performed such a salute, and after saying that there was a secret way, she had already determined that the other party was not a pity, but just ...... She didn't know who Jiao Yuzhen was.

Jiao Yuzhen curled the corners of her lips and smiled faintly: "I am your savior." Don't worry, when I return to the capital, your reward will definitely not be less. Since the man was a spy of the robbers, he heard me talk about the secret passage, and he was afraid that when all the villages were robbed, they would remember the secret passage. Although we had escaped a long way by then, we must not relax, after all, this area is not safe. Let's go. ”

"Yes, yes!" Zhou Wenlin nodded again and again, and hugged Sister-in-law Zhou in his arms, although he looked timid and cowardly, but he loved his wife very much, Mrs. Ma and Sister-in-law Zhou had a good relationship, and now that I heard that Mrs. Ma's family was killed by robbers, he could understand Sister-in-law Zhou's feelings, but he couldn't do anything, so he could only hug Sister-in-law Zhou.

has been walking along the secret passage for more than three hours, although Sister-in-law Zhou and Zhou Wenlin can persevere, but Jiao Yuzhen feels tired and panicked, but when she stopped and looked back, she found someone coming along the secret passage!
