Chapter 284: Tunnel
Dark Si was silent when he entered the mansion, Chu Nian and the others couldn't wait, so Dark One simply proposed to kill it directly to see what kind of evil was done.
Although Chu Nian did not agree with such reckless actions, he was also worried about the safety of the dark four, hesitated for a while, and took the lead in following the big tree into the wall, and the remaining few secret guards thought that Chu Nian would not enter so easily, wiped it, and glanced at each other helplessly, so he had to hurriedly keep up with Chu Nian's pace.
The landing was very light, with a pile of hay underfoot, and not far away a stable, in which a horse with shiny black fur was sneezing.
The rest of the people landed one after another, and when they saw this scene, they looked at each other, and the dark one stepped forward, "Lady, didn't you see the dark four who came first?" ”
Chu Nian frowned slightly, the horse is here, which proves that the owner of this courtyard is also there, but the gate has obviously not been moved for a long time, and the people in the village have never seen who lives in this courtyard, obviously, this courtyard has a back door to the outside.
After listening intently for a while, Chu Nian's expression suddenly became nervous, and several secret guards also took out their weapons to guard one after another, and at this stall, there was a sound of light footsteps from the corner not far away, as if someone was walking on tiptoe.
Dark One was on guard, and when the man came out of the corner, the short blade under his hand almost came out, but he glared at him and whispered: "Dark Four ......"
Dark Si cautiously walked from the corner to Chu Nian's side, and then said: "The subordinates have only explored, this courtyard is uninhabited at least to the west, and as for the last bedroom on the east side, the subordinates have not had time to investigate." ”
Seeing the intact Dark Four, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly slapped the Dark Four's shoulder: "It's okay if you're okay, seeing that you haven't come out for so long, the lady is in a hurry." ”
Dark Si seemed to be a little embarrassed to glance at Chu Nian, there was still a bit of indifference written on his expressionless face, Chu Nian shook his head indifferently, "Don't go separately, it's unknown what the ability of the person behind this is, besides, his light skills are still above you, I'm afraid that if we really fight, he will escape, and we won't be able to catch it." ”
If the person behind this Sanhua cottage is the same person as the person behind Xiao Chen's family, then the first contact between them was the assassination of Zhu's mother.
Chu Nian half-lowered his eyes, "Be careful, I suspect that the people in those villages outside are controlled by some kind of magic, but it is not an illusion, I don't know how to crack it, you don't want to fall into the way of thieves." ”
Several of the guards nodded in unison, and everyone walked all the way to the east.
The courtyard was still dark, and a trace of swaying tree shadows could be faintly seen by the moonlight, and at this moment, the dark three had already followed, and this stall was following behind Chu Nian and muttering: "Could it be that there is really no one in this courtyard?" But the owner of the village didn't let people get close to here, so how did the horses survive? ”
Chu Nian glanced back at him, didn't speak, reached out and touched the lintel of a wooden door beside him, and the dust soon stained his entire plain hand.
Dark three snorted, "It's so dirty, even if someone lives in it, it's an unhygienic person." ”
Chu Nian smiled helplessly, and at this stall, he saw Dark Er step forward and said, "Lady, there seems to be some movement outside the courtyard......"
Hearing this, the remaining four people suddenly became alert, Chu Nian turned his eyes slightly and turned his eyes to look at the gate where it was, and the sky outside the courtyard seemed to be brightly lit by a torch.
Chu Nian frowned deeply, he was discovered so quickly?
"Hey, lady, look, what is this?" At this stall, Dark San touched a strangely shaped groove on the wall next to him, and said curiously.
At this moment, Chu Nian didn't have the heart to care about this, this courtyard was obviously surrounded, what she should have thought about was how to escape with a few secret guards, but at this stall, she heard a "click", and the dark three looked at everyone present with an innocent face.
Dark One looked at Dark Three and swallowed his saliva silently: "Dark Three, you, did you press some switch?" ”
Dark San's face was also a little stiff: "It seems...... Yes......"
Dark Two and Dark Four looked at Dark Three's hand that didn't dare to leave the strange-shaped groove and was silent, and his dark face became more and more pale: "Lady, this, this can't be some kind of mechanism or something, right?" Do we still have the life to get out? ”
Chu Nian frowned and looked at Dark San, before he opened his mouth, he heard Dark San say with a frightened face: "Why do I feel that the ground under my feet is moving...... Yes! ”
With this scream, a large hole silently appeared under the feet of the dark three, and the dark three fell down the big hole, and the howl became more and more ethereal.
"The third child!" Several secret guards came to the entrance of the cave, and the entrance of the cave was pitch black, and a steep staircase was faintly visible, which seemed to meander downward, and the dark three rolled directly down the stairs.
Seeing this, Chu Nian immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "This should be the tunnel, let's go down too." ”
Dark three found the tunnel by mistake, and now the people outside are surrounding, they can't escape, and this kid is lucky, he actually saved everyone's lives.
Sighing, the dark one also followed the three people who had gone down the stairs in front of him, and when the figures of several people completely disappeared into the darkness, he only heard a "boom", and the hole in the corridor closed again, and silence was restored around, as if no one had ever come.
Outside the courtyard gate, the owner of the village looked at the gate in front of him silently, and behind him were a group of lifeless subordinates, and Liu Er, who had a complicated complexion, stood on the side.
He just got Chu Nian's order to go to see their village owner, who knew that the village owner was not sleeping, he was still reading, and his original sneaky whereabouts were still discovered.
But fortunately, the owner of the village did not ask him anything, but his eyes widened inexplicably, and then he took all the brothers to this courtyard that was not allowed to be entered on weekdays.
There is no doubt that Liu Er naturally knew that Chu Nian and they were inside, but now he had no way to report to Chu Nian, he only hoped that Chu Nian and them could escape from here before the owner of the village entered, so as not to lose their lives.
Before the trace of luck in Liu Er's heart fell, he heard a loud call from the eldest brother beside him: "Come on, knock the door open, arrest the thieves inside for me, correct the law on the spot, and never leave a living mouth!" ”
When the words fell, Liu Er's heart suddenly cooled, and he saw a few brothers step forward, and the wooden door with the bolt was easily knocked open by a few big men, and then, a group of people rushed into the courtyard that had made them dare to watch from afar.
Liu Er hesitated for a while, then hurriedly rushed in, and now the last glimmer of hope is that only he can find the Wushuang County Lord and them before the others, otherwise others will see the Wushuang County Lord, if the Wushuang County Lord resists, it will be his brother who will die; If the Wushuang County Lord does not resist, then it will be the Wushuang County Lord who will die.
He didn't want to see either of these results, he only hoped that the Wushuang County Lord and they could escape smoothly, and then unlock the current secret, so that the entire cottage and the eldest brother would return to their original state!
At the same time, in the cold tunnel, there were several dim lights hanging on the walls, and Chu Nian looked at the dark three who had fainted on the ground and was silent.
Seeing that the dark three were unscathed, several dark guards were also relieved, and the dark one took a moment to look around, "Lady, is this really the passage to the outside?" ”
Chu Nian glanced at him sideways, took off a lantern hanging on the side, and walked around this hole, and found three other holes that he didn't know where to go.
"This is very difficult, if you go wrong and enter a place with many organs, won't you die?"
Dark touched his chin, that look, it simply replaced the position of the dark three stinky poor.
But it is also reasonable, Chu Nian frowned, "Let's go separately, try your luck, if you encounter danger, go back the same way immediately, I will go to the cave on the far left, you go in groups of two, go to the other two caves." ”
"Lady, how can this work! If Your Highness knew that we left you and let you go by yourself, wouldn't Your Highness kill a few of us!" ”
Chu Nian smiled helplessly: "It's okay, I have illusion protection, there may not be anything dangerous, you go, if anyone finds the exit, go to the rescue, don't look back." ”
After that, she couldn't help but say viciously and walked towards the entrance of the cave on the far left, and the remaining guards watched her figure disappear into the darkness, peeking at each other for a while, and then sighed helplessly, "Since the lady has said so, I can only do this, pray that the lady will not be in any danger, otherwise we will suffer again......"
In the pitch-black corridor, Chu Nian silently looked at the road ahead, and under his feet was a slippery piece of dirt.
If this is really the tunnel leading to the outside, there will be no traps or anything like that the guards imagined, but why there are three passages is intriguing.
Suddenly, there seemed to be a sound of a woman crying in the darkness not far away, Chu Nian lowered his face slightly, frowned and walked forward, the cry became louder and louder, and it was particularly abrupt in the darkness.
Rounding a corner, a stone chamber appeared in front of him, which was brightly lit, and what was even more surprising was that three or two women were leaning against the wall with weak faces, and not far away a small earthen bag, a woman was kneeling there and crying silently.
The cry was made by her.
Several women leaning against the wall seemed to notice Chu Nian's presence, and one of them raised his head and said weakly, "You were also caught in?" Listen to my advice, don't resist, if you don't resist, he won't be good, if there is a slight disobedience, he will ......"
The woman's face was lonely, and the woman on the side also sighed, and one of the women who looked rosy stepped forward: "In the future, we will also be sisters who will suffer together, don't think about it, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, sooner or later one day we will take revenge!" ”
Chu Nian frowned and listened to them talk to themselves, and after a while, he said softly: "The 'he' you said ...... Who is it? ”
As soon as these words came out, several women all looked at Chu Nian with surprised faces, and even the woman who was originally crying turned her head, and looked at Chu Nian with a pair of red and swollen eyes.
"You, you ......"
Chu Nian frowned, "I broke in by mistake, can you tell me what's going on?" I might be able to find a way to get you out. ”
At this moment, Chu Nian had roughly guessed the identities of the women in front of him, but first he had to gain their trust before he could rescue them.
