Volume 1 The Return of the Old Man Chapter 144 There are so many tricks

Yingniang whined a few times in the direction of the bed.

Han Changdui was stunned for a moment, uncovered the futon, and banged on the bed.

Yingniang shook her head anxiously and whined anxiously.

Han Changwan raised his eyebrows: "Don't play tricks." ”

Yingniang nodded again and again, and as soon as her mouth was loosened, the stinky foot clothes were taken off.

She moved her mouth, and was just about to howl, when she caught a glimpse of Han Changdu's face like the king of Hades, she immediately swallowed back in fright, and said uneasily: "That, that son was taken away." ”

"Take it away, take it with you." Han Changdui said coldly.

"I don't know, I really don't know." She climbed to the side of the bed and pointed to the wall next to the winding alley: "They, that's where they went." ”

"They, who they are." Han Changdui asked.

Yingniang cried miserably, and her tears washed away the white and greasy incense powder, leaving a yellow and white mark: "That's it, that's it, it's the people in the small pavilion, they said, that the son is good-looking, and there is a lack of a top card in the small pavilion, so they discussed with the godmother and got the person away." ”

“......”

Han Changdui turned a candlestick hanging on the wall according to Yingniang's method, and sure enough, there was a creaking sound in the silence, and there was suddenly a half-person-high hole in the wall, which was pitch black.

Take the candle flame to shine, you can see the deep cave with sections of bluestone steps extending downward, polished to a smooth finish, under the candle flame, shining like a water pattern.

The wall faces the alley behind, and if the steps lead to the ground, then to the alley.

Han Changdui asked with a cold face, "Where does this lead to?" ”

Yingniang's eyes flashed, and she shook her head quickly: "I don't know, I really don't know, I haven't gone down." ”

Han Changdui didn't believe this nonsense, he thought about it, and asked without any emotion: "Is the business of the small restaurant in the back good?" ”

Yingniang blurted out: "Excellent." After saying that, she was stunned, and realized that she had slipped out.

Han Changdui smiled, raised his chin at Gu Chen, and then took the candlestick and took the lead in burrowing into the hole.

Gu Chen carried Yingniang and twisted her neck without waiting for her to beg for mercy.

"Click", Yingniang stared at a pair of bright eyes unwillingly, her eyes were frightened and desperate, the big teardrops were still hanging in the corners of her eyes, and the person had fallen to the ground softly.

Gu Chen carried Yingniang to the bed, her clothes were half-faded, covered with a brocade quilt, and she recited a mantra without the slightest pity.

Then he plugged in the door, blew out a few candles, pretended to be asleep, and then bent over, followed Han Changdui into the cave, turned another same candlestick in the hole, and closed the entrance to the cave.

The stairs were long, getting deeper and deeper, and there was a little dampness in the air.

Han Changdui secretly calculated to himself, after walking for so long, he should have gone underground.

Gu Chen touched the uneven stone wall, lowered his voice and said, "Childe, it should be underground." ”

Han Changdui nodded lightly.

The two of them walked one after the other, and when they went down to the last step of the stairs, there was a mottled blue brick wall, which was abruptly horizontal in front of them, and there was no way out.

Han Changwan and Gu Chen glanced at each other, walked over with a very fast step, leaned on the wall, and listened to something quietly.

The voices of the voices pierced through the walls, and they could be heard indistinctly, but the voices were high and low, and it seemed that there were many people behind the walls.

The two of them tapped lightly on the wall to find it, not letting go of every brick crack, but in the end they found nothing.

Han Changdui stopped expressionlessly and looked at this place quietly.

It's not a small space, big enough for four or five people.

The walls on both sides of the stairs are uneven and uneven, all of which are hastily excavated and untouched traces.

Only this wall has been repaired, and there must be another mechanism used to open this wall.

Han Changdui squatted down, his fingers curled slightly, and gently tapped each floor tile on the ground with a solemn expression.

Gu Chen hurriedly retreated to the steps, tilted his head and carefully looked at the wall for a long time, but he didn't see anything, and hurriedly ran down.

This step is made of bluestone, and people come and go for a long time, and the polishing is very smooth.

He ran in a hurry, without much defense, his feet slipped, and the whole person was uncontrollable, and he stumbled and rushed down.

Rushing to the ground, he seemed to have tripped over some bulge, and his body threw himself forward, hitting the wall, and his knees slammed against the wall, grinning in pain.

Han Changdui hurriedly helped Gu Chen up and asked, "How is it, it's okay?" ”

Gu Chen shook his head, rubbed his knees, kicked the ground, and scolded in a low voice: "What kind of broken ground is this, so uneven." ”

"Isn't it uneven?" Han Changdui knocked for a while, and felt that the ground was fairly smooth, how could it trip people.

He squatted down suspiciously, pulled out the dagger hidden in his leather boots, and cleaned up the floor tile that had just tripped over Gu Chen little by little.

At a cursory glance, there is nothing abnormal about this brick, but after a closer look, it is indeed different from other bricks, there is no dust in the brick surface and brick joints, only fresh dust.

After cleaning the bricks, one side is slightly upturned, slightly higher than other bricks, but under the dense dust, it is impossible to see with the eyes alone, and now that the dust is cleaned, there is a little awkward depression on the slightly warped edge, as if it is often caught by some sharp weapon.

Han Changdui raised his eyebrows, inserted the dagger into the brick crack, and gently pried it against the depression.

I only heard a click, and the brick was pried up, and there was just a space for a brick under the brick.

Gu Chen sighed lightly, held the candlestick, and approached.

In the vacant space, an irregular stone block was inlaid, which was made of the same material as the green brick.

Han Changdui raised his chin and motioned for Gu Chen to step back.

Gu Chen retreated to the bottom of the steps, tore off the soft sword at his waist, shook it slightly, and made a defensive posture.

Han Changdui clenched his handle expressionlessly, sighed lightly, and turned it gently.

It only took a moment to turn around, and the creaking sound suddenly sounded.

Han Changdui hurriedly got up, stood with Gu Chen, and made the same defensive posture.

As the wall turned, a faint ray of light leaked in, and the sound of talking outside the wall suddenly stopped.

Han Changdui and Gu Chen blew out the candlestick together, and where the two of them were standing, they just avoided the rays of light, and fell into darkness in an instant.

A voice came from behind the wall: "What's the matter, there's something new coming?" ”

"I don't know, why didn't I say hello in advance when I came to the new goods." The person who answered came over, looked inside, and saw nothing in the dark.

He squeezed in in surprise, and before he could speak, he felt the world spin around, and he lost consciousness, and sat down against the wall, his head drooping at an eerie angle.

The man outside the wall asked again: "Old Five, how is it, is there anything wrong?" ”

Gu Chen reacted very quickly, and replied in the voice of the person just now: "It's okay, it may be that there is something wrong with the organ, you go first, I'll take a look at the organ." ”

He learned the man's voice vividly, and if he didn't look at his face, he really thought that the man was not dead.

The people outside did not suspect that there was a fake, and said: "Then I'll go first, the shopkeeper of this batch of goods is waiting to see it, and I'll send it out first." ”

Gu Chen replied calmly: "Okay, you go first, I'll go over in a while." ”

Hearing the messy footsteps gradually disappearing, Han Changdui and Gu Chen both breathed a sigh of relief.

Han Changdui asked Gu Chen in surprise: "You learn his voice, it is really similar." ”

Gu Chen raised his eyebrows proudly: "This is my ability to watch the house, no matter who speaks, I can learn seven or eight points just by listening to one sentence." ”

Han Changwan smiled and took the lead in squeezing out of the crack in the wall.

When I came out, I found that behind the wall was an even more empty hall, and on the unexcavated stone walls on all four sides, several candlesticks were placed, the candles were flickering, and the dark shadows were shaking on the ground.

Gu Chen looked around, looking at the unsightly paintings on the stone wall, and was speechless.

This place is really playing, it is simply subverting what he has learned in his life, and there are many more tricks than in Pingkangfang.

Han Changdui's attention was focused on the various torture instruments in the hall.

Although the torture instruments here are not as tragic as those of the Internal Security Division, they are better than the many kinds of torture instruments, many of which have been recorded in ancient books, but have long been lost, which is enough to breathtaking.

Han Changdui looked at it the same way, he was in charge of the Internal Security Division, so he was naturally very familiar with the torture tools, he had seen all the torture tools here, if these torture tools appeared in the prison of the Internal Security Division, it would not be surprising, but they could appear in the underground of a small hall, it was really chilling, he picked up one of them, and said in unison: "Gu Chen, come and see." ”

Gu Chen hurried over and exclaimed, "Landing and taking root, this little pavilion is too ruthless." ”

Han Changwan clenched his fists, if Xie Mengxia really entered this kind of place, with his sharp mouth, he would have to shed his skin even if he didn't die.

Both of them looked a little unpleasant, and they all walked towards the exit.

The people who were about the small hall did not expect that outsiders would find here, and the exit was very eye-catching and easy to find, unobstructed, with the same blue brick wall and the same candlestick embedded in the wall.

Gu Chen opened his defensive posture, and Han Changdui turned the candlestick with ease.

There was also a gap in the wall, allowing only one person to pass sideways, and a noise came in.

Han Changdui and Gu Chen did not rush out, but hid in the shadow cast by the wall.

Footsteps approached outside, and two tall bearded men poked their heads through the gap.

"Why did this door open again, didn't the third brother come out with new goods just now?"

"Didn't the third brother say that the fifth brother stayed inside to repair the mechanism?"

"Let's go, go in and have a look."

The two Hu people walked in one after the other, and suddenly walked into the darkness from the place of light, and the two of them were blind in front of them.

In this moment's confusion, the mouths of the two were covered, the bones on their necks were cold, and their hands were cut backwards and pressed into the corner.
