Chapter 16: The Underground Crypt

Xie Mansion is now in a mess, people are in and out carrying buckets to extinguish fires, and in a hurry, a few people carrying buckets bumped into others, the water spilled on the ground, and several people slipped when they passed by, and the scene was even more chaotic for a while. The fire in that attic spread to other attics in the surrounding area, but fortunately the area was deserted and uninhabited for many years, so there were no casualties. However, if the fire is allowed to spread further, it will inevitably be in danger of the more luxurious buildings not far away, so people hurriedly put out the fire. It's just that they are used to being comfortable, and nothing like this has happened since the establishment of the Xie Mansion, so now everyone is panicking.

In a pavilion, a group of officers and soldiers were questioning the villain to understand the situation. Xie Haizhi, the head of the Xie Mansion, stood not far away and looked at the attic with fierce fire, his face was pale, his brows were tightly locked, and his expression seemed to be about to eat people.

No one had ever dared to provoke Xie Fu like this, and it was inevitable that he would be annoyed. His fists were clenched, his teeth were clenched, and his cheeks seemed to bulge with bruises. Several heads of the family standing on the side looked at him with a ghostly expression.

These family heads are very imposing, and the most important thing is that the painting style of the three of them is completely different from that of several other subordinate guards. The unity is very handsome. A domineering and hard, although he is a little old and looks at his beard, but his aura is very powerful, but he looks a little familiar, and he looks very much like Beichen Yuan, it is estimated that he is the head of the Beichen family, Beichen Qu. He was very close to the head of the house next to him, and he still pushed him with his elbow, his eyes full of schadenfreude.

The head of the family has a tall posture, delicate facial features, a dark green bamboo brocade robe, a piece of mutton fat jade pinned to his waist, and the hair crown on his head is also glazed and golden, which looks very luxurious. If it weren't for the subtle wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, she would have thought it was someone's merry son. A pair of eyes full of shrewdness, at first glance it is not easy to fool. He had his hands behind his back, and he was very old. Presumably this is the head of the Huangfu family, Huangfu Shi.

He seemed to be a little impatient with Beichenqu, and the painting style of the two standing together seemed to be mindless and unhappy, but it was very funny.

Compared with the three of them, the head of the family next to him looks very immature, and his age is on par with her, this should be the head of the Song family, Song Bingzhu. His almond eyes are very clear, his lips are red and his teeth are white, and he is even more beautiful than a woman. He stood in the corner and didn't speak, just staring at the fire in the distance. She wanted to be on fire, and if the head of the family didn't show up, he probably wouldn't be there. He looks like a person who has ideas, can handle the overall situation, and can take charge of himself. However, it must be tiring to become the head of the house at this age.

Liang Jian squinted his eyes and saw that the four people had information boards on their heads, and it seemed that they were indeed more important roles. It's just that these people's information boards still have to watch 100 seconds of ads to unlock?!!

"Damn, can you skip it!" She secretly slandered in dissatisfaction, 100 seconds for each person, 400 seconds for four people, it's a waste of life!

"Yes, as long as you recharge 1 million and become our distinguished VIP, you can enjoy ad-free services." The system said very flatteringly, like a shopping guide who buys clothes in a shopping mall, a barber who sells cards in a barber shop, and a chatter that recommends a book recharge package.

She glanced at it speechlessly, and resolutely clicked on the advertisement, and after four advertisements that were as long as a lifetime, and every minute and every second made people scratch their ears and cheeks, the information board was finally unlocked, and with it was the thirty seconds to the countdown??!

She was stunned for a few seconds, and then raced against time to catch the key words.

Beichen Canal: The force value is 90, the third in the rivers and lakes, the father of Beichen Min, the head of the Beichen family, and the IQ basin.

Song Bingzhu: The force value is 79, the rank of the rivers and lakes is seventeenth, the head of the Song family, and the IQ is high.

Xie Haizhi: The force value is 82, ranking eighth in the rivers and lakes, the head of the Xie family, and the IQ slope.

Huangfu She: The force value is 84, ranking sixth in the rivers and lakes, the head of the Huangfu family, and the IQ plateau.

??? What are these adjectives? It's quite intuitive, especially this Huangfu wade, plateau! That's not going to be a smart death! So smart and deadly?!

She was trying to jot down this information when she was suddenly interrupted by Beichenqu's loud noise.

"Deputy, alliance leader" Beichen Qu said very dissatisfied, and specially emphasized the word 'deputy', for fear that Xie Haizhi would not die of anger, "I didn't know that you would be robbed here!" I don't want me to ask General Fuguang to come over and strengthen the guards of the Xie Mansion for you? "It is said to be helping, but in fact it is showing off, since the Beichen family has attached the general of Fuguang, they can't beat the gong and drum to tell the world, Beichen Qu is proud in his heart.

Who doesn't know that the most powerful general in this Beiling country, General Fuguang. The Tanglin Kingdom has been committed for many years, and the border wars are endless, and it has always been the general of Fuguang to protect the family and defend the country in exchange for the country's current stability. General Fuguang went to the battlefield at the age of thirteen, starting from a small soldier, brave and good at fighting, not afraid of danger, step by step promoted to the position of general, the power is monstrous, and now who is not afraid of him in the court, even the emperor has to give him face. Although the people in the martial arts do not participate in the affairs of the imperial court, since the emperor installed the Xie family in the martial arts league in order to control the imperial court, the people in the rivers and lakes understand that power is stronger than fists.

However, there are also a lot of festivals between General Fuguang and Xie Haizhi, the most important thing is that the Xie family should have gone to the battlefield at the beginning, and General Fuguang was just an unknown person at that time. But Xie Hai was afraid of losing his life, so he didn't dare to go to the battlefield, so he invited himself to join the Martial Arts League. Later, General Fuguang repeatedly performed miraculous feats on the battlefield and grew powerful, his eyes were red, and he wanted to make friends but was closed.

This incident made him lose face in the court and even in the rivers and lakes, so he held a grudge against the general Fuguang, and since then the relationship between the two has been incompatible.

Thinking of this, Beichen Qu became more and more proud, now that he has General Fuguang as a backer, he has been angry in the Xie family all these years, and he has to return the nails he touched one by one!

"Yo, who doesn't know that General Fuguang married a girl from the Beichen family, the Beichen family and General Fuguang, that is a match made in heaven!" The entourage of Beichen Canal on the side also echoed the praise, following Beichen Canal over the years, he has no other skills, and he has exercised a lot of skills to slap horses.

"However, Deputy Alliance Leader, General Fuguang is busy preparing to go to the front line these days, and I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of your business. In a few days, when he is free, I'll ask you, hahahahahahahahaha He smiled unscrupulously, ignoring Xie Haizhi's dripping face, or that he was deliberately jumping on his minefield.

"Eh, Brother Beichen, how can you say that" Huangfu Shi looked at Xie Haizhi's face black and black, and he didn't know how happy he was, Xie Jiade was not worthy, no family was truly convinced, but considering that he had the support of the imperial court behind him and still had to help play the round, he said undeniably, "This villain is insidious, who would have expected it?" Even if Fuguang is in the future, it is estimated that it will not be pleased. ”

"Hmph, the villain is indeed insidious." Song Bingzhu, who had not spoken for a long time on the side, snorted coldly, he has always been straightforward, and he doesn't like twisting and turning flattery, he has long been unable to look down on the rampant villain appearance of the Xie family, and this time he wants to add fuel to the fire, "This villain will have his own harvest if he does too much evil, you are right, deputy alliance leader." "He doesn't like to flatter and flatter, but who can match when he wants to be angry.

"Hmph, Sect Master Song is right." Xie Haizhi knew that his molars were about to be crushed, he really wanted to sew up this Song Bingzhu, and in the future, when he became the leader of the alliance, he would be the first to take the Song family!

The housekeeper of the Xie Mansion hurriedly came to the rescue at this time, "Sect Master, the hidden fire team in the city has come, and the government soldiers in the mansion are also fighting the fire, but I don't know why, the fire is still uncontrollable, what are we going to do now?" "This is indeed true, I don't know why, the fire just can't be extinguished, not only can't be extinguished but also burned the benefit attic one after another, he has never seen such a thing.

"Let's put out the fire first!" Huangfu Shi smirked, and agreed with Song Bingzhu's words 10,000 times in his heart, but he still had to make a show on the surface.

"Humph!" Xie Haizhi flicked his sleeves and walked away.

The others parted happily.

"Hahahahaha, this Beichen family master and Song family master are so good at talking!" Liang Jian looked at the four people in the distance, and every word was like a blade, and every sentence pierced people's hearts, it was quite interesting for you to come and go.

"This surname Song is indeed interesting." He nodded with interest, looking at Xie Haizhi's clenched fists and angry red face was really pleasing to the eye.

"This dog-eat-dog scene is really good-looking." She silently took out a watermelon, "Do you eat it?" ”

"Well, let's just say you can't miss it," he raised his eyebrows, looking happy, and then took the watermelon, "You've got a good saying." ”

"Huh?" There is a sentence, which one?

"Dog eats dog." He felt that the word had been best interpreted at this moment, wasn't there a group of dogs barking in front of him, but it was a pity that a few of them were still calm and didn't fight.

"Let's go, let's add one last fire." Yan Shi got up, the firelight reflected on his face, one side was bright, the other was shadowy, the smile on the corner of his mouth made his heart cold, and all the conspiracies seemed to melt into his chest.

"Huh? ...... this offender? She retreated a little, but looked at his cold eyes and the voice became quieter and quieter, like a mosquito buzzing.

"What did you say?" He smiled slightly, but the smile seemed to say, 'Say more and I'll kill you!' ’

"Guilty, good offense! Let's go, I've set this fire today! Liang Jian broke out in a cold sweat behind his back, looking at him with a hippie smile for so many days, he almost forgot that this thing was a villain, the kind that would rattle and kill people.

"Well, let's go." He patted her on the back, and then held her waist a little softer, bypassing the troublesome crowd, and by the monstrous firelight, some of the evil corners should be burned clean.

"Anyway, why can't those fires be extinguished?" She watched as the group of people below hurriedly panicked, buckets of water entering the fire one after another, but there was no sign of abating, and the water was only a drop in the bucket in the face of the fire.

"The oil fire boiled by the mermaids in the South China Sea will not be extinguished when it burns, do you know?"

"I've heard of it." She nodded like garlic, looking at the raging fire with some surprise. It has been mentioned in many novels, and it turns out that there really is such a magical thing! She's really lucky enough to see it in her third life.

"Well, it's okay with that."

??? "Huh?" She was stunned, it doesn't matter if you talk about a fart! And then he was a little speechless, does this guy think he has a good sense of humor?

"They save theirs, I burn mine, and don't interfere with each other."

…… Please speak human words! She knew every word, but how could it be so puzzling to put it together? What does it mean to be non-interfering?!

"Look there!" Yan Shi pointed to a figure behind the firelight, because it was hidden too deeply, people were panicked and no one noticed the corner, so no one noticed that there was another person over there.

The figure wandered rapidly in front of the pavilions, pouring out the oil, sometimes adding it to the water of others. So not only will the fire not be extinguished, but it will grow bigger and bigger.

She suddenly thought of a very classic math problem, asking when a pool can be filled with water while releasing water. In the same way, this fire is probably not extinguished tonight.

"You're not afraid that I'll betray you?" Tell her so easily, this villain is too easy to trust others, right?!

"You think you're going to get a chance to snitch?" He laughed, and he thought that she could ask such a question, she could never pose a threat, and besides, they could be considered a camp.

"It's a roar, too." She shrugged and nodded, she really didn't have the guts or the opportunity to say it.

"Alright, we're here." Yan Shi landed gently and put Liang Jian down.

After she stood firm, she looked around, and there was a rockery in front of her, and the small waterfall on the side gradually became smaller, thinking that it was because of the firefighting. There is nothing special about this rockery, it is still a little short, and it is also a very ordinary pavilion around, which seems a little ordinary in the luxurious Xie Mansion.

"Here?" She asked puzzledly, what else is there?

"Follow me." Yan Shi took her wrist and pressed a stone on the rockery, and then, the stairs next to the pavilion were suddenly closed, and an underground secret door appeared.

!!! Sure enough, there is a mechanism, I don't know who built this Xie Mansion, it's really a skilled craftsman!

"Keep up." As he spoke, he pulled Liang Jian in.

As soon as he entered, Yan Shi pressed a switch, and the lights inside automatically lit up, which was really ancient high-tech! She didn't expect the setting of this novel to be quite technological. But the dim oil lamp still makes people uncomfortable with the eyes. I don't know how long I walked along the dark road, turning around, going uphill and downhill for a while, and there were several forks in the road for a while, I have to say that this basement is quite large, and it is estimated that it is all over the Xie Mansion. Finally, they came to a secret room.

Liang Jian seemed to be able to hear someone talking inside, and suddenly the tension came, isn't this a large-scale immersive secret room detective?! Her legs were shaking, and she remembered the path she had just taken. Well, I really can't think of it, so if you want to run away for a while, you'd better leave it to fate!

Yan Shi seemed to sense her uneasiness, secretly patted her on the back, and handed her a dagger. Then she pushed the door open, and the inside was much brighter than the outside, and her eyes narrowed slightly because she was a little uncomfortable for a moment.

I only heard who drew the sword, and there was a bang, and in front of me was a vague figure of several people fighting, and only the sound of hissing and breaking the wind was heard. After getting used to the light, Yan Shi had already killed the last person.

Liang Jian looked at the corpses all over the ground in slight surprise, blood flowed like a river, and the floor was dyed red. Yan Shi stood in front of her with a soft sword in his hand, his black night robe was wet in a few places, and his face was also stained with a little blood, which looked a little thrilling.

She was a little stunned for a moment, even if she knew that he was a villain, he would kill, and that it was common for her to die in the martial arts world, but for the first time she was so close to the corpses and the blood that flowed in the same place, she was still a little overwhelmed. The warm blood that flowed from those veins, and the corpses on the ground were wide-eyed, some frightened, some angry, and looked terrifying.

It suddenly occurred to me that this guy knows martial arts?! Before that, and Beichen Min......

Yan Shi didn't notice Liang Jian's distraction, but just stepped forward and pulled open a heavy curtain.

Then, Liang Jian saw an even more terrifying scene, a hellish scene.
