Chapter 182: Secret Passage
"Tell me, what great things have you done?" said Sersi, fastening the leather buckle of his armor as he drew the inky curtains. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Aiden leaned his back against the wall, panting. The paleness of his face was enough to prove that he had just escaped from a desperate pursuit, but unfortunately he did not seem to have thrown off the enemy, as there was already a violent knock on the door outside the house.
"Poor ghost, have you ever seen a brat with blond hair, a bearskin on his shoulders, and a black longbow?" a rugged voice asked, "Size, almost to me!"
"No, I didn't see it, my lord. An old voice replied resignedly.
"Get out of the way!" another voice roared, "If you don't want to find your teeth all over the floor, you'd better not let me find out you're lying!!"
The voices seemed to be close at hand, and Sersi could hear them well, and those guys should be next door, and it was the old slender man who was asking about pulling boats. The next second, there was a child's cry.
"It's worse than you think!" Aiden tried the sweat from his forehead, "We need to get out of here now, the sooner the better!"
"Damn, what good have you done?" said Sersi grumbling as he finished fastening the last leather button and hurried to the balcony. The sun was setting now, and when the last rays of sunlight disappeared into the streets, twenty knights stood quietly on their horses, as if waiting for some rabbit to crash into a tree stump.
"I don't mind jumping off the balcony. Aiden sat on the floor, muttering quietly as he drank half a glass of sour wine.
"If you want to be poked into a sieve. Sersi slowly closed the curtains and walked to the bedroom door. "Winnie, we need to get out of here at once!" he whispered in a shouting tone, "There's a broom star that has brought in a bunch of black riders, and depending on the situation, they shouldn't have come to talk to us. ”
"What?" Winnie's voice came from the half-hidden crack in the door, "Hell, aren't you their leader?"
"Don't ask so much, unless you want everything that just happened to be a deathbed goodbye. Sersi poked her head in the door.
"What just happened?" Aiden stood up, his round eyes looking at the mysterious crack in the door, "What did I miss?"
Outside the house, there was the sound of iron boots stomping on the stairs again, this time closer. Sersi twisted his bare head and beckoned to the golden retriever.
'Knock knock-'
"Open the door, damn poor devil!" roared the gruff voice just now.
"I know there's someone in there!open the door for me!" the familiar voice roared again.
Then there was a violent knock on the door, which turned into iron boots stomping on the door, and the fine ash and sawdust on the door beams continued to fall, accompanied by another low roar, and the door seemed to be only a matter of time, and it was imminent.
"The streets are full of their men, twenty well-trained black dogs!" Winnie pushed the door open, buttoning it up in a panic, "Sercy, who's their leader?"
"You want to talk to him?" Sersi furrowed his eyebrows, his tone full of displeasure.
"What are you thinking?" Winnie curled her long hair neatly, "I can transform into their head and keep those damn black dogs away from here!"
Sersi turned to look at the golden retriever.
"I don't know, I only saw the back. Aiden turned his head to look at the crackling wooden door, "Captain Sercy, are you going to fight with them?" he touched the quiver around his waist, "I don't have many arrows. ”
"Only that idiot Alan would do that!" Sersi said as he pushed Aiden into the bedroom, then quickly closed the door.
'Bang-'
Outside the door came the sound of a heavy wooden door falling to the ground, followed by the noise of four iron boots trampling on the old planks.
Sersi rushed to the side of the wooden bed, quickly bent down and raised his arms, only to hear him let out a muffled roar from the cavity of his lungs, and the astonishing force uprooted the wooden bed that had been nailed to the floor, along with the two planks.
In surprise, a bottomless black hole appeared in front of Winnie and Aiden.
"Don't look!" Sersi grabbed Winnie's arm, "I'll pick you up below, don't be afraid." He turned his head to look at Aiden, "Don't be left behind, unless you still want to continue playing cat and mouse with those guys out there!"
"I'll bet with a silver coin! the golden retriever and his accomplices are in there!" came the gruff voice from outside the door.
"You can't escape!" another man clapped on the door and shouted unhurriedly, "It's all our people outside, even if you give you wings now, they can shoot you down!"
After Sersi jumped, Winnie carefully sat down on the edge of the black hole, followed by Sercy's cries and Winnie's coquettish screams.
Aiden dragged the long table from the window against the wooden door, and after doing all this, he sat down on the edge of the black hole in Winnie's position, and then grabbed the edge of the hole with both hands, carefully lowering his body into the unknown darkness.
When his feet touched the ground, Aiden felt that it was not as deep as he thought, and he tried to look around, but all he could see was a glowing hole, and the sound of the door being kicked overhead.
"This way!" Sercy's voice appeared behind him.
"Where is this?" Aiden searched for a voice, cautiously leaning out of his steps.
"Be careful to keep your head down, you will get shorter and shorter in the future. Sersi's voice came again, "This is the basement floor, and I sealed half of the room on the first floor and dug this tunnel. ”
"Why do you leave a secret passage under the bed?" Aiden lowered his head, but still touched the hard edge of the wall, "Hobbies?" he rubbed his forehead and bent his waist lower, "I guess you don't have enough money to buy a castle, but no matter where you live, you have to have a secret passage, right?"
"Looks like you're not scared by those guys yet!" Sercy's voice echoed through the tunnel, "At first, this tunnel was to prevent Patton or some nobleman from sending someone to assassinate me, but I didn't expect it to come in handy!"
"What's the end?" Aiden crawled with his head down to the ground on his elbows and knees.
"A relatively safe place. ”
Half an hour later, the three of them appeared under a stone bridge. By this time it was already dark, and Winnie shivered in the early spring night wind.
"How far is this from Morwinburg?" Aiden unleashed the bearskin from his shoulder, "Miss Winnie, if you don't mind. He held his shoulders and bowed slightly.
"Of course!" Winnie nodded, taking her hands over her shoulders, "Thank you, knight. ”
"It's a bit of a distance, we're still in the south of the city. Sersi looked at the fishing boats in the night and said, "I dug for three months to make this tunnel a secret, but there is only a limit to the power of one person. ”
"It's already good! it got us out!" Winnie smiled as she wrapped her bearskin over her shoulder, "You've got three lives in three months, it's worth it!"
"We have to get back quickly, I heard an amazing secret....." Aiden craned his neck, his eyes full of fear.
