Chapter 22: Backstabbing
The interior of the tunnel is dimly lit, and it is surrounded by damp moss that grows from the lack of sunlight all year round, which is a bit disgusting to look at.
"Are you sure that old man is not lying?" Ye Wenyu's face was full of worry.
"He didn't dare."
Yi Cheng was very calm.
"Didn't this guy call a police acquaintance just now, and it is estimated that he is also a master in a high position, and he should have our information in his hand."
The two of them descended the dark and deep staircase all the way down, and finally reached the basement level.
"Huh?"
Ye Wenyu touched the circuit switch on the wall, and when he opened it, he found that the huge cellar was full of all kinds of wine, but there was no trace of Jiang Xue.
"It's... Will we be deceived? ”
Ye Wenyu squeezed Yi Cheng's hand with some concern.
"Do you tell lies when you're about to be strangled?"
Ye Wenyu shook his head.
Yi Cheng didn't doubt his judgment, turned his head and began to search along the wall.
"Either there is a mechanism, or there is a secret passage, if you are a rich second generation who often does this kind of lawless thing on weekdays, you will not just be placed on the first floor of the cellar."
As soon as the words fell, Yi Cheng's eyes were attracted by a strange brick.
This brick is obviously not the same year as the red brick on the wall, and the color is slightly different, which may be difficult for ordinary people to distinguish, but Yi Cheng is not an ordinary person.
Rumble! Rumble...
Pressing the bricks, the wall instantly reverses, and in front of it is a brightly lit path, and the smooth path made of unknown materials on the side looks like a different kind of fun.
"This kid is quite emotional."
Ye Wenyu clenched Yi Cheng's hand again, and took the team members out to do tasks very frequently, it was the first time for him to come out alone, but fortunately, the junior brother in front of him gave him enough security.
As soon as he walked down the stairs, Yi Cheng found that there were some traces of blood on both sides of the corridor, and there seemed to be traces of dragging, and there were several coarse cloth clothes stacked next to them, with a few "Zhao" characters faintly written on them.
"Brother Cheng! Brother Cheng, save me, Brother Cheng! ”
Yi Cheng looked ahead suspiciously, only to see a vague female figure sitting on the ground, next to her were four men slowly approaching, and finally there seemed to be a man in a robe, but his face could not be seen clearly.
Hearing Jiang Xue's cry for help, the man in the robe also turned his head in confusion, only to find that it was not the young master Zhao Juming who came downstairs, but a burly man he had never seen before.
Yi Cheng walked in slowly, and at the moment when he was sure that Jiang Xue was ahead, he immediately grabbed Ye Wenyu's hand and flew forward at a high speed!
"Look for death!"
The man in the robe looked to be in his forties, with small eyes, hooked nose and thin lips, and he didn't look like a decent person.
Without intent to entangle with him, Yi Cheng just flew over with the golden aura around his body.
"Golden... Nimbus... It's true, hehehe..."
The robed man didn't have the slightest intention of making a move, and he retreated back to avoid this violent impact, but this action also made Yi Cheng suspicious.
When the four younger brothers heard the movement behind them, they also hurriedly turned around and prepared to resist, but the difference in strength was too big.
Ye Wenyu stood in place and stared at the man in the robe to prevent this guy from sneaking up, while Yi Cheng stood indifferently and looked at Jiang Xue's condition.
Dressed neatly, although a little dirty, it is reasonable, there is no trace of being torn, presumably there is no substantial insult.
"I'll your grandma!"
Seeing that Yi Cheng was stunned, the tall, thin man who was a little bolder among the four people took the lead.
I saw him wielding the small dagger in his hand and slashing at Yi Cheng's throat, and his shot was extremely fierce.
"Look for death."
Yi Cheng slapped off the short blade with a backhand, and then ended the guy's life with a single punch.
No blood rushed out, and the punch went straight to the heart, and the thin and tall man's chest didn't even collapse, but the heart inside had already been shattered.
Seeing the captain bleeding and kneeling on the ground, the remaining three younger brothers were all panicked.
After stunting the group of people with one slap, Yi Cheng walked quickly to Jiang Xue's side.
Now Jiang Xue's body was a mess of blood stains and dirt, and her beautiful face was also a little messy, and her eyes were not looking at Yi Cheng with affection, but looking at Ye Wenyu behind him suspiciously.
"Brother Cheng, this is..."
"My girlfriend."
Yi Cheng stretched out his hand to Jiang Xue and pulled her up, but the latter's face did not have a hint of joy at being rescued, but instead looked at Ye Wenyu's back with an unbelievable look.
"Your... Girlfriend? ”
Jiang Xue's voice trembled a little, and she looked at Ye Wenyu's figure suspiciously, and her mind was blank.
"Well, my senior sister, I haven't seen you for three years, and this time it was she who helped me find your location so that I could get you out."
Pinching Jiang Xue's shoulders to soothe her emotions, Yi Cheng turned his back to her and faced the robed man not far away.
"What, you're still going to stop me from saving people?"
When Yi Cheng made a move, he used his spiritual sense to explore his realm, but it was only the peak of the Xuan Realm, and it was not enough to see it in front of him.
"Truly, how dare the old man block the way of the Lord of the Heavenly Realm, it's just an old dog guarding the door for the Zhao family, I don't need to hand over my life for Zhao Juming."
I saw the man in the robe turn sideways and make way of a path.
"Let's go, you two, I won't embarrass you."
"You have to have this ability, senior sister, let's go."
Yi Cheng snorted coldly and then took Ye Wenyu's little hand again, and randomly turned his head to look at Jiang Xue, who had an indifferent face.
"Let's go, if you have anything to say, go out and talk about it."
"Okay."
Yi Cheng and Ye Wenyu are in front, and Jiang Xue is behind.
The three of them walked in the narrow corridor one after the other, and the smile on the face of the man in the robe became stronger and stronger.
At the moment when Yicheng passed by a man!
"Boy, I'll take your Heavenly Realm Dan!"
A strong brown light shone throughout the passage, and Yi Cheng frowned slightly.
This man hides his true realm.
At the peak of the terrain, there are few such figures in today's ancient martial arts world.
"Cast a good tire in the next life, let me go with peace of mind!"
A strong green miasma erupted from the man's mouth, accompanied by a pair of strange metal claws in the man's hand.
Yi Cheng hurriedly prepared to resist.
Although the peak of the realm is still less than one-tenth of his own, this poisonous gas is not necessarily easy to deal with.
"Go to the front and wait for me!"
Ye Wenyu only had the level of the Xuan Realm, Yi Cheng would not let her be in danger, and with a wave of his forearm, he threw her ten meters away and landed steadily.
"Give me death!"
After a roar, the poisonous gas gradually dissipated.
I saw Yi Cheng smiling and looking at Jiang Xue behind him, and in his hand was the wrist that Jiang Xue held the short knife and stabbed at him.
"How is that possible... How do you know I'm going to shoot! ”
Jiang Xue asked loudly with unwillingly red eyes, she used all her strength to stab Yi Cheng's chest, but she was never able to penetrate a single bit.
"You've been exposed, I mean."
