Chapter 202: The Earth Dragon Turns Over
Chu Yan wanted to go in directly, but Qin Shiming immediately stopped him, "Slow!" β
"This Yu Xiangqin is scheming, and a maid next to her is also ruthless, who knows if there will be any mechanism in her secret passage."
"I'll go in, you wait outside, let Lin Yi chase after me."
After Chu Yan finished explaining, he went in directly.
"Hey, you'reβ"
Qin Shiming didn't have time to stop it at all, he shook his head, and had to feel that this person had really changed.
He quickly went out and lit the signal cigarette on his body, and after getting a response, he hurriedly returned to the room and followed Chu Yan into the dark passage.
He walked all the way down the dark passage, and he walked forward for a while before he reached a secret room.
There were many bookshelves here, and Chu Yan was in front of one of them, flipping through the books on it.
"What is this?"
Qin Shiming leaned over and saw some names and ages written on the book.
Seeing this, Qin Shiming's face became even more ugly, "Are these the children who were sold by Yu Xiangqin?" β
"It seems so."
Chu Yan picked up another book, which was also densely written with many names and ages, most of them were children of seven or eight years old, and occasionally ten years old.
These records made Qin Shiming's expression gloomy, "Just now I have some doubts, why would the shopkeeper of a tooth shop target cyclamen, now it seems that this Yu Xiangqin has done a lot of evil things." β
Early this morning, Chu Yan came to him and wanted Dr. Wu to visit the doctor, he felt that something was wrong, so he followed over to take a look, but he didn't expect the cyclamen to be cut off.
This kind of poison is extremely poisonous, once overdosed, even if the gods come, it is difficult to come back to life, so the broken intestine grass has always been a forbidden drug, and it is difficult to appear in Qingzhou County.
Hearing this, he immediately found Chu Yan to ask clearly, but he didn't expect Chu Yan to suspect Yu Xiangqin in the tooth shop early on.
Chu Yan looked around the secret room, and soon found a box containing medicinal powder, he dipped it with his fingers, put it to his nose and sniffed it.
"Is that it?" Qin Shiming asked.
"Yes." Handing the box to him, Chu Yan looked around the room again, and found that there was a secret passage next to it, and there were candles on the candelabra on the wall that had not yet burned out, so he should have just walked for a short time.
"General Qin, Mr. Chu."
Lin Yi led a few soldiers in, and when he looked at the situation inside, he suddenly remembered something, and stepped forward to take out the account book, "General, this is the account book found in the study." β
"Oh?"
Qin Shiming took it.
There is nothing wrong with the ledger, it is all related to tea.
Yu Xiangqin is the owner of the tea house to the outside world, and the tooth shop is the business behind her.
"What now? Yu Xiangqin must have received some news, and ran away overnight, and now she should be able to catch up if she chases after her. Qin Shiming handed the account book to Chu Yan, "It's just that this tunnel seems to lead directly to the outside, and it shouldn't be easy to catch up with Yu Xiangqin." β
Chu Yan pondered for a moment, "I'll chase after you, you stay and see if there is any evidence here, and bring it over to Yan Jinglan." β
"Okay."
Qin Shiming didn't say much, just smiled, "I didn't expect Yan Jinglan's iron-faced head catcher to come, and I don't know if Yu Xiangqin received Yan Jinglan's news and ran so fast." If it were replaced by the previous head-catching in Qingzhou County, it is estimated that this place would have become their world long ago. β
Chu Yan didn't reply.
Qin Shiming also knew his character, so he called a few soldiers and immediately chased him into the dark passage.
"Take all of this away." Chu Yan said.
"Yes!" The soldiers responded, and immediately took all the bills from the secret room.
Chu Yan walked around the secret room and found nothing suspicious.
"Mr. Chu, take it all."
"Hmm."
Chu Yan looked around, saw that there was nothing missing, and took a few soldiers to the dungeon where he had been with Su Liuye last time.
The blood stains and torture in the dungeon were still there, but there was no one left, and they were all obviously taken away.
"Search the house thoroughly and find out all the children who are in custody!"
Yu Xiangqin has been doing evil in Qingzhou County for many years, and the children she abducted do not remember, and it is impossible to take them away at one time, and the only explanation is that those children were hidden elsewhere in the house.
As long as these children are found, Yu Xiangqin's capital crime will not be escaped.
"Yes!"
The soldiers had long known the purpose of their trip, and now they were even more angry when they saw the blood and torture in the dungeon.
They are all good men who protect their families and defend the country, but they can't imagine that someone is doing this kind of abduction and trafficking of children behind their backs, which is really hateful!
It's just that suddenly, Chu Yan's sharp gaze fell on the corner, and he shouted suddenly, "Don't touch there!" β
The soldier who was about to bring the box stacked in the corner immediately stopped his movements.
Chu Yan walked over quickly, only to see a suspicious puddle of water under the box, and a thin line next to it.
Looking down the thin line, another section is hidden in the wall, and there is a small hole in it that is just enough for the line to pass through.
Chu Yan leaned over and sniffed it, and a faint smell of fire oil wafted in.
His face was ugly, "Get out of here now, there's a trap!" β
The nearest soldier could see what was inside the wall, and his expression was instantly unrecognizable.
"Let's go! There's explosives here! β
When everyone heard this, they were all shocked and ran towards the gate.
The man at the front of the line exclaimed, "The gate is locked!" β
When Chu Yan heard this, he walked over quickly, and sure enough, he saw that the iron door of the dungeon had been closed.
"Mr. Chu, it's not good! Gunpowder was ignited! β
Before he could figure out how to open the gate, the soldiers behind him shouted.
When Chu Yan turned around, he saw that the dungeon was already lit up with a raging fire.
In an instant, he finally understood.
No wonder Yu Xiangqin would put the bill in such a conspicuous place, it turned out to be to lure them into being fooled!
Before I had time to think about it, there was a blast in the dungeon.
The loud explosion caused the ground to shake, and even the people nearby woke up.
At this moment, it has long passed, and there is no one on the street except for the watchman, such a loud sound, let alone near Yaxing, even Su Liuye was awakened from his sleep.
Before she could figure out what it was, there was a knock on the door.
"Aliu, are you awake? Hurry up and come out, it seems that the earth dragon has turned over! Qin Lian's exclamation sounded outside the door.
"Earth dragon turned over?"
Su Liuye was stunned for a moment before she realized that it was an earthquake, and she immediately ran out with her two sleeping children in her arms.
Qin Lian was waiting outside, and hurriedly helped her take the second treasure, and the two ran to the street.
After a while, Liu Sheng also ran out of it in horror, "Shopkeeper, Ah Lian, are you okay?" I just went to look for you, but I didn't find it. β
"We're fine."
Qin Lian was in a cold sweat, fortunately there was a private house next door to her room, and she woke her up with a few exclamations.
