26 Chapter 26 Into the Tiger's Den Again

Along the way, the rumbling thunder was incessant, drumming in the secret passage, shaking the dust above the head and falling down, which showed that no one had moved in this secret passage for many years.

The entrance to the secret passage is not large, but the entrance is very spacious, and you only need to bend down slightly to walk unimpeded. When Wei Jue left, he had already pulled the stone at the entrance of the secret passage back into place, and he was thoughtful, and there would never be the slightest relaxation for people to take advantage of.

We walked in the dark for a long time, but we couldn't see where the end of the secret passage led, and we couldn't help but feel that the builder of this secret passage did not know how much manpower and material resources it took to build this secret passage. In silence, after walking for another quarter of an hour or so, the dark secret passage finally ushered in a little light, and the dim and dark was definitely not the light of the stars and moon.

Wei Jue smiled at me, took my hand and quickened my pace, and soon we were in the faint light.

"Dance, look!" Wei Jue raised his hand and pointed to one place.

I followed Wei Jue's gaze, and saw that the end of the secret passage was also like the entrance we entered, it was an upward exit, and the stones above my head were locked from the inside, and could only be opened from the inside out, so that the people above would never be able to get down.

I was so excited that I wanted to open the lock, but Wei Jue suddenly pulled me down.

"Dance, wait a minute!" Wei Jue frowned: "If you are not mistaken, the outside of this secret passage is definitely more dangerous than the stone room!" ”

"Danger? How so? I looked at him fixedly, waiting for an answer.

Wei Jue raised his head and carefully examined the lock pin, and said calmly: "Maybe we are all mistaken, we have completely reversed this way, and the entrance in the stone room is not the entrance of the secret passage at all, but the exit." As for this place, it is the real entrance, and after someone escaped from here, they locked the secret passage from the inside, and then fled from the stone room to other places, so we can enter through the stone room and get here. ”

"What kind of person would be escaping from above?" I asked with interest.

Wei Jue thought for a while, and his gaze returned to my face: "If my guess is right, above our heads is Yecheng, the palace built by Cao Wei, this secret passage was also built at that time, and it has a history of several decades. ”

I heard him say it so surely, and immediately pretended to be suddenly enlightened: "I see, no wonder there is such a long secret passage, it turned out to be built by Emperor Cao Wei, and we can only escape thanks to their blessings!" ”

Wei Jue shook his head when he heard this, with a heavy face: "This secret passage is exquisitely structured, but there is still light penetrating, and the outside must be a brilliant place for lights." Do you know that this Yecheng has fallen into the hands of Liu Cong, and if we are discovered, it will be difficult to escape! ”

"Isn't that just out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's den? How could we be so unlucky! I could only sigh.

"Bang!"

At this moment, there was a crisp sound overhead, as if someone had kicked over the copper furnace and smashed it on the ground.

I looked at Wei Jue, who pulled me into his arms and didn't let me say anything more.

"It's over, it's over, you broke the emperor's purple gold incense burner, Xiaolian, you run quickly, otherwise you will be killed!" A woman came in with a crying voice.

"No, let's run together, or we'll all die, while no one finds out now, let's go!" Then a rush of footsteps ran out.

Wei Jue and I glanced at each other, and the two of them jumped up, pushed away the huge stone slab, and kept drilling out of the secret passage.

"It's really a palace!"

I muttered to myself that outside the secret passage was a side hall, which looked like it was used to store treasures. At this moment, Wei Jue and I are certainly not interested in going treasure hunting.

"Let's go, Dance! If you want to run for your life, you still have to follow someone who is familiar with the path, and if they commit an accident, they will inevitably hide in a safe place. After Wei Jue finished speaking, he pulled me and heard the footsteps of the two palace maids, and followed closely.

Although the night gave us the best cover, the chaos in this palace was the biggest reason why we were not discovered. When the Hu people first entered the Central Plains, they must have been shocked by this prosperous palace, and they only cared about eating, drinking and having fun all day long, completely forgetting the garrison.

And those captive women were all driven to the palace, and here and now, there were women's cries everywhere, which made people feel inexplicably uncomfortable. Wei Jue and I didn't dare to stop for the slightest, and followed the two palace maids towards the outside of the palace.

As soon as they arrived at the palace gate, the crowd was boiling, and the two palace maids who walked in front were caught before they had time to turn around, and they were stripped of their clothes and hung above the city gate.

Thanks to Wei Jue's quick hand to pull me into the darkness, we can only watch what is happening in front of us and wait for the right moment.

"The Hu people are not merciless when they kill their own people!" I watched two living lives die in front of me.

"Dance, don't look!" Wei Jue suddenly reached out and blindfolded me.

I snapped his fingers and followed his gaze, only to see dozens of Han men kneeling side by side, a mighty man with a huge plate axe, sweeping like the wind, cutting off their heads, and blood splattered several feet away.

"How many kills do they have to kill to be satisfied!" I trembled unconsciously, and Wei Jue hugged me tightly.

"In this world, you and I can't save them at all!" Wei Jue comforted me, her slender fingers wiped away my tears, and her voice suddenly said in a low voice: "Wuxi, that's Liu Cong!" The one who killed my big brother! ”

I looked up again and saw a Hu man directing it all not far from us.

"Come on, hang the heads of these Han dogs on the flagpole to sacrifice the flag for our army, and then kill all these women to sacrifice Shile, so that he can enjoy tenderness after death!" Liu Cong said angrily.

"Shile?" Could it be that Shile is dead? No way, when Wei Jue and I escaped from the Yuwen Ministry, Murong Han personally told me that Shi Le was still alive.

Just thinking about it, I heard Liu Cong say again: "Yuwen, this old thing, actually dares to Ling Chi the king's favorite general, he is really tired of it, and the king of Ming Japan will order 100,000 soldiers and horses to kill him in his kennel, wipe out his Yuwen clan completely, and let him die to understand, this is the fate of Liu Cong who dares to provoke me!" ”

After saying that, he grabbed one of the women beside him and hugged him in his arms, laughing and not knowing where he was going.

In the night, Wei Jue and I were silent, this troubled world almost made the entire Central Plains flow of blood, and the most bitter people were those people.

I don't know how long I stayed, but the sound of "clanging" shackles sounded from far to near, and dozens of Han men carried several large boxes under the trees, their faces were full of despair, in this hellish palace, they could die at any time.

A drunken Hu man shouted loudly on the side: This is the king's favorite armor and treasure, tomorrow will be transported out of Yecheng with the army, if you don't want to die, hurry up and move to the cart under the city gate! ”

His words made Wei Jue's hearts move in my heart, this is the best opportunity to go out. Without hesitation, we dodged and followed, blending silently into the group, and carrying the heavy wooden boxes under the city gate with the wooden Han men.

As they turned around, we jumped to the top of the doorway, and the Hu people were so busy killing people that no one noticed that we had crept into one of the wooden boxes.

Through the cracks, I watched the men and women who were hanged under the city gate swaying slightly by the evening breeze, and my heart was as cold as ashes!
