Chapter 66: The Tunnel

I don't know how long it took, the carriage suddenly became bumpy, Han Jin looked around through the wheels, the convoy had turned onto a small road, at the end of the path was a hill that was neither big nor small, and there was a lonely small village under the hill, there were only a few households, but none of them were lit, and it was full of lifeless smell.

The convoy went straight through the village until it reached the bottom of the hill, where a dozen or so guards jumped down and moved away from the old piles of wheat stalks, and in a faint rumbling sound, a hole three meters high and more than two meters wide appeared in front of everyone.

There were also a dozen knights in the cave, and they should be familiar with the people of the caravan, so they let go of the way and waved their hands to signal the convoy to hurry in.

When the stone gate of the secret cave was suddenly closed, the convoy had already entered a downward road, due to its own load, at first the horses pulled the cart away, and then it became a cart running against the horses, fortunately there was a very skilled coachman on each carriage, controlling the rhythm of the entire convoy.

It was about a kilometer away, the speed of the convoy slowed down, there was a small square in front, there was a camp in the square, the cold north wind was blocked by the earth, it was very warm here, a few soldiers in bright silver armor sat around the door of the camp, I don't know what they were talking about, there were still women walking in the camp, it seemed that this camp had existed for a long time.

Leopold talked and laughed with the soldiers in front of the camp for a few words, and then commanded the convoy to continue to move forward, Han Jin was still hiding under the carriage, carefully observing the movements around him, just now he saw the few soldiers sitting around, his heart was in his throat, the angle was almost parallel, as long as those soldiers were a little more careful, it was not difficult to find the abnormal shadow under the carriage, but unfortunately it had been lax here for too long, and vigilance had become an unnecessary thing.

There are traces of artificial excavation all around, this is not a natural formation, up to now, the amount of work he has seen has been jaw-dropping, if this tunnel can lead to the Holy Crown City, it is simply a miracle, it is really unimaginable, who can have such great courage?!

The road ahead was dark, with magic lanterns installed about every fifty meters, which could only make a faint sight of something, but it was definitely not bright.

The guards in the convoy complained in a low voice, Han Jin listened for a moment and understood something, this tunnel will not be opened in wartime, and it will not be easily opened in wartime, only when the situation is very difficult and blood transfusion is urgently needed, this tunnel will become the blood vessel that the Holy Crown City depends on. The other end of the tunnel is in the territory of the Beit League, and in order to avoid provoking unnecessary disputes, the armies of Crow City and Deepe City will never trespass into the Beit League without permission, and the safety of the tunnel has been greatly guaranteed.

Of course, if Crow City and Deeptown found out that there was such a tunnel, they would definitely not be polite, the problem is, since they would not violate the borders of the Beit League, then they would not be able to find out.

Every kilometer, there will be several forks on the side of the road, there are obvious marks at the forks, guiding the right direction, passing through a fork in the road is nothing, but after passing through more than a dozen forks and seeing nearly a hundred forks, Han Jin can't help but feel shocked, isn't this a huge underground labyrinth?

It is always easy to fall asleep in a dim place, but the guards on the first carriage do not dare to slack off, others can be wrong, they cannot be wrong, if the convoy is led to a fork in the road, the consequences are very serious, and maybe never want to get out.

Leopold struck up and sat behind the coachman, he was a responsible man, at least responsible for himself, and the funny thing was that others only knew jealousy, only saw his wealth rolling, but did not see the hard work he paid. When others are playing, he has to carefully calculate the gains and losses of each business, when others are resting, he has to keep his eyes open all the time, and all kinds of maneuvers, greetings, and deceptions, it can only be said that it is not easy to do any business.

"Give me the flask. Leopold said with a yawn.

The guard was sleeping soundly in the carriage, and Leopold couldn't help but widen his eyes. This is also a common human disease, when he enjoys, he doesn't want others to enjoy it more than him, and when he suffers, he wants everyone to suffer like him.

Here he was beating his spirits, but the guard slept like a pig, and Leopold was severely stimulated, and his appearance did not correspond to his heart, or even the opposite, Leopold pulled a whip in his hand, and was about to whip it down.

Before the whip could move, a sudden fireball did Leopold's wish, but the consequences were a little too serious, and the guard flew out of the stabbing stab, hit the wall of the cave, and then rolled to the ground, his head already a mass of charcoal.

Leopold was stunned as a figure descended from above and sat down beside him, Leopold looked sideways and let out a scream, a terrible cry that rang out far along the deep cavern.

"What's going on?"

"Enemy Attack, Enemy Attack ......"

The whole convoy was shouting and neighing, and the coachman in front of Leopold realized that something was wrong and hurriedly jumped out of the carriage, but Leopold didn't dare to move, and only looked at Han Jin blankly, like a frog that saw a snake.

A guard poked his head out of the corner, half of his body was hiding behind the carriage, a longbow was slowly drawn, and the arrow was pointed at Han Jin, who was more than ten meters away.

Just as the guard was about to let go of his fingers, a huge fist flew from the side and struck the guard in the cheek, and the guard had only time to scream before he flew out, slammed into the wall of the cave, and was bounced back.

A wooden man jumped over the carriage and pursued in the air, the second punch hit the guard in the cheek again, followed by another punch, and the whole cave wall trembled, and when the wooden man locked on to the next target, half of the guard's head was already deeply embedded in the cave wall, and only a bloody mouth could be seen, and the arc between his neck and his body was almost ninety degrees.

"Kill him......" A dozen guards pounced from the front and back.

Han Jin smiled and released another wooden figure, and the two wooden figures were guarding the front and back, blocking the attacks of the guards. Although the work of the guards is similar to that of mercenaries, they are at both ends of the low and high ends in terms of strength, if they have enough strength to join a mercenary team, their personal income will suddenly increase more than ten times, or even more, there is no need to look at people's faces.

Han Jin knew very well that the strongest guard captain was only a fifth-order swordsman, and he was confident enough to deal with all his opponents.

Leopold didn't dare to move, cold sweat was everywhere on his head and face, the merchant's mind was flexible, and in this instant, he thought of many questions, why didn't Mario come over for half a day?...... Those knights were all killed?? Thinking of the mercenary in front of him who had been following the hole in the ground, the more he thought about it, the more terrifying he felt, and a creepy feeling overwhelmed him.
