An Debao laughed with him, and asked the dozen or so soldiers to search the house from the inside out, of course, the soldiers must have found nothing. When these difficult soldiers were finally sent away, An Debao breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly came to the back cover room, where there was a sandwich wall made of red bricks, and there was a secret passage hidden in the wall, and the secret passage was directly leading to the grass tree hall of the pseudo-Jiannan Palace. There are mechanisms in the dark passages and sandwich walls, and if they are forcibly destroyed outside, then these things will self-destruct, and there is absolutely no chance to find this place from the puppet palace.

The skilled craftsmen who built these secret passages were secretly executed by Niu all over the ground after the completion of the project, and in this world, except for a few absolute henchmen, no one knows about the existence of these secret passages, even Mrs. Niu Lin Beiting does not know. Andebao stretched out his hand and knocked lightly four times outside the sandwich wall, knock knock, this is the code set before. An Debao said in a low voice: "Lord Wang! Lord Wang! Those soldiers who came to search have already left, and it is safe outside, you can come out!"

But there was no response in the sandwich wall, and Niu Mandi did not open the sandwich wall and walked out, An Debao's heart became uneasy, and he knocked lightly four times, knock, "Lord, I'm Lao An, now it's safe outside, you can come out!" An Debao was anxious, knocked four times in a row, raised his voice and asked, "Wu Chao, are you and the prince still there?"

Wu Chao is Wu Ban's younger brother, one of Niu Mandi's two bodyguards, he has always been near Niu Mandi, as long as Niu Man Di drills out of the tunnel, then Wu Chao and Wu Ban must be next to Niu Mandi. Now that Wuban escaped from Luye City with the young master Niu Zhicheng, only Wu Chao was still by Niu Mandi's side. But after An Debao knocked a few times, not only Niu Mandi did not respond, but even Wu Chao did not respond. But how could the prince get into the secret passage without any response? Could it be that something happened to the prince?

An Debao panicked, this secret passage is only known to the prince and himself and a few guards, and it is impossible for anyone else to know, why is there no movement here? An Debao gritted his teeth and decided to open the secret passage. According to the rules, he can't enter the secret passage at will, unless something major happens, and he must rush to report that the cattle are all over the ground, and Anderbao can enter the secret passage. Anderpaw pryed the first, fourth, and seventh bricks in the bottom row of the mezzanine wall at the base of the wall, and the red brick wall creaked and shifted to the right.

When the wall was removed, a three-foot-square tunnel was revealed. An Debao said boldly: "Lord, Wu Chao, I'm Lao An, I'm here!" An Debao walked to the tunnel entrance and walked down the stairs of the tunnel entrance, signing up for his own number as he walked, for fear that Wu Chao would treat him as an uninvited guest and then burst out as a killer. The stairs of the secret passage slowly extend downward, and a few luminite stones hang on both sides of the secret passage, illuminating the steps clearly. But when he came to the bottom of the secret passage, which was more than a foot deep, he found that the secret passage was empty.

An Debao was completely stunned, what about the prince and Wu Chao? An Debao activated the copper bull head mechanism on the wall, and slowly pushed the cow's tongue back into the cow's mouth, so the red brick wall on the ground squeaked and slowly moved back to its original position. An Debao had the courage to say loudly: "Lord Wang, Wu Chao, are you there?" There was only silent silence to answer him, and in the secret passage underground, only the sound of An Debao's own restless breathing.

An Debao's body shook suddenly, his eyes widened and he looked into the depths of the secret passage, stunned, and said to himself after a while: "Lord Wang, do you really go back and talk to Tang Jiusheng face to face? But there is only one way to go back like this, Tang Jiusheng will not let you go! Lord Wang, Lord Wang, ants are still greedy for life, why don't you want to escape? Stay in the green mountains, not afraid of running out of firewood!"

The big plaque at the gate of the pseudo-Jiannan Wangfu has been taken off and burned, and the small gate is guarded everywhere, maybe it won't be long before the imperial court will issue an order to demolish this place, and the big merchants treat the thieves the same.

The grass hall in the back house of the puppet palace is deserted, only the carved beams and painted houses and the two rows of bonsai in the courtyard are still showing people its former luxury, hanging in the embroidered eye birdcage under the porch, a red lark is singing lonely, because there is no longer its old owner cow all over the ground. The soldiers hadn't had time to steal anything, and the cattle were all over the ground with all the food. Jin Chengzhang instructed his lieutenants to send people to guard the door of each hall, and someone would come in to count the items later.

In the main hall of the Grass Tree Hall, the thick wall suddenly and silently slid to the side, revealing a tunnel entrance to the ground. Soon, a middle-aged man with large triangular eyes and a majestic face walked up from the steps in the tunnel, this man was dressed in a cyan scribe's uniform, and was followed by a tall guard with a goose feather knife in his left hand and a leopard's head and eyes. The middle-aged man with triangular eyes is the former envoy of Jiannan Dao, and the guard behind him is Wu Chao.

Niu Mandi walked out of the secret passage, looked around the grass tree hall, and saw that all the furnishings in the hall were still there, his bacon, ham, pastries and other foods were there, several banquet tables were also there, bookshelves, desks, screens, all stood in place, it seemed that Tang Jiusheng's subordinates had not yet checked here. Niu walked towards the main entrance of the Grass Tree Hall, and when he came back, he just wanted to talk to Tang Jiusheng.

Wang Long and Li Ji, the two pawns guarding the door of the Grass Tree Hall, were holding spears in their hands, chatting with each other. Li Ji, who was half a head shorter than Wang Lung, yawned and asked tiredly: "Eh, Wang Lung, you said that this cow is all over the place, and General Jin still asked us to guard what to do here?"

The pawn Wang Lung said impatiently: "General Jin asked us to guard here, then we have to guard here, what is there to doubt? What if the cattle are hidden somewhere in this mansion, and the hungry can't stand it and look for food? If we catch him, then it will be developed! Damn, what about the bounty, how many times is it enough for your boy to visit the kiln? Ahhh

When Li Ji heard the word Oiran, he immediately woke up from drowsiness, his eyes lit up, he first laughed obscenely for a while, and smacked his mouth, "Oh, I heard that Xue Oiran in the Full Moon Building is very beautiful, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and I heard that people are white and tender, if you can let me hug it, it will be beautiful!" Li Ji thought about it, and was deflated again, and sighed: "Forget it, brother, let's just dream about it, even if we have a lot of gold, some Oiran still doesn't want to put on music? ”

The pawn Wang Lung poked the ground heavily with the handle of the spear in his hand, and said with a disdainful expression: "Look at your appearance! I don't believe it, you are holding a big ingot of gold and silver, and she will push you out of the old bustard! Who the hell will have trouble with money? Besides, with gold and silver, marry a little woman with fine skin and tender flesh and go home, and live a good life behind closed doors, who the fuck still goes to the kiln!

The two were chatting, and suddenly the door behind them was pushed open, and someone laughed: "It seems that I still have some use for Niu Mandi, and I can fulfill the dream of the two of you before I die, not bad, not bad! You two boys go and call Tang Jiusheng to come, just say that this king Niu Mandi wants to see him in the Caoshu Hall, let him come to see me quickly, I have something to talk to him!"

The pawns Wang Lung and Li Ji were startled, because yesterday a brother came in to search, and there was no one in the Grass Tree Hall, and the only living creature was probably the lark in the cage. The two pawns hurriedly turned around, only to see two people coming out of the grass tree hall, one was wearing a scribe's uniform, with big triangular eyes, it was the four gates of the city with notices, and the anti-thief cow on the picture was all over the ground, and the cow was followed by a guard with a knife behind the ground.

The pawn Li Ji was surprised and delighted, almost jumped up, pointed the spear in his hand at the cow all over the ground, and shouted excitedly: "Brother, it's the cow all over the ground! Hahahaha, now we are developed! A thousand taels of gold are in hand, hurry, hurry, hurry up and call the captain of the school, tell him to bring people quickly, the cow is full of ground in the grass tree hall!"

Wang Lung agreed, and just as he wanted to run to call someone with a big gun, Niu shouted all over the ground, "What kind of captain is called, what kind of soldier is called?" Go and call Tang Jiusheng, the king of Wei, I want to see Tang Jiusheng, just see him in this Caoshu Hall! If he doesn't come, I won't go anywhere, and no one will think that I will walk out of Caoshutang for half a step!"

The pawn Wang Lung carried a big gun along the stone path in front of the Grass Tree Hall, and ran out in a panic, but he hit the captain Bai Changshun who had just walked to the Moon Gate, and Bai Changshun, who was patrolling with more than 20 pawns, was furious, and slapped Wang Lung with a round arm, "You bastard! Don't guard the Grass Tree Hall, what are you running around? If General Jin hits it, you will go down with a military stick, and the will be beaten out for you!"

When Wang Long saw that it was his own captain, he hurriedly crossed his hands and saluted, and said excitedly: "Ouch, my captain Bai, go and call someone to guard the Caoshu Hall, and go to report to General Jin and King Wei, the cows have appeared all over the Caoshu Hall! He said that he wants to see King Wei, and if he doesn't see King Wei, he won't go anywhere, and he won't take half a step out of the Caoshu Hall! Quick, quick, quick, go and ask someone to invite the prince to come! Oh my God, this is a bounty of 1,000 taels of gold!"

Bai Changshun's body trembled, he couldn't believe his ears, he took Wang Lung's arm and hurriedly asked, "What are you talking about?! The cows are all over the grass and tree hall? He wants to see the prince?" Bai Changshun was still a little unconvinced, and pinched his thigh with his hand, he gasped in pain, it hurt to pinch himself, it didn't seem to be a dream.

Wang Lung was also anxious, and said loudly: "Captain Bai, you are not dreaming, Niu Mandi has indeed appeared in the Grass Tree Hall!" Li Ji is looking at him there, if you don't believe it, come with me to see it, and by the way, call someone to inform General Jin and the prince, now we can be developed, hahahaha......" Bai Changshun looked at Wang Long's ecstatic expression, and was sure that this matter was definitely true.

Bai Changshun's excited voice trembled, and his brothers under his command found Niu Mandi, and he had made a meritorious service! He hurriedly turned back to a pawn with a waist knife and said: "Sun Er, go to the side hall to inform General Jin and tell him, just say that Niu Mandi is in the Caoshu Hall, and he asks to see our prince!"

The pawn Sun Er agreed, and ran to report to Jin Chengzhang like a fly, Bai Changshun took these twenty or so pawns to follow behind Wang Long's buttocks, and trotted all the way to Caoshutang, but he couldn't let the cows run away all over the ground!

Niu Mandi stood on the steps at the door of the Grass Tree Hall with a calm face, glanced at the twenty or so pawns in the patio who surrounded himself and Wu Chao, and the swords and guns were unsheathed like facing the enemy, and their captain Bai Changshun, sneered, and looked up at the sky, he only wanted to see Tang Jiusheng now, and he would not put these little miscellaneous fish in his eyes at all. Bai Changshun saw that Wu Chao was holding the scabbard in his left hand, pointed at the other party with his halberd, and shouted: "You, hurry up and put the knife down!"

Wu Chao glanced at him with disdain, and said coldly: "It's up to you, and you deserve me to put down the knife? Before your prince comes, I won't put down the knife if anyone comes! My prince said that if he wants to see Tang Jiusheng, then he has to wait until Tang Jiusheng arrives here! You are just a small captain, what qualifications do you have to give orders to Lao Tzu?"

Bai Changshun was furious, drew his knife in his hand, slowly moved forward, pointed at the black swoop, and said: "The cattle are full of prisoners of the imperial court! You dare to shelter the prisoners, and you should be punished according to the law! Brothers, take this house for me!"

A contemptuous smile appeared on Wu Chao's black face, his body suddenly moved, just like a cheetah attacking its prey, swept towards Bai Changshun, raised his leg and kicked Bai Changshun's Yanling knife into the air, and then the person jumped up, grabbed the Yanling knife that was still flying upward, transported the qi machine, and gently pinched it with his right hand, and the Yanling knife was as brittle as a cucumber in his hand, and it was broken in response.

Wu Chao threw the broken Yanling knife into two and stuck it in front of Bai Changshun. Wu Chao gently swept back to Niu Mandi's side, his face was calm, as if nothing had happened, and the whole action was like a cloud of water in one go. Seeing this, Niu Mandu just sighed, and there was endless mockery in his laughter.

Bai Changshun's face turned red all of a sudden, he often boasted in front of his soldiers how strong his martial arts were, and how amazing the martial arts realm of the five grades was, but now he was slapped in the face in public, how could he bear it? Bai Changshun was stunned for a moment, and then pounced on him and punched Wu Chao. Bai Changshun's actions, in the eyes of Wu Chao in the Second Rank Realm, were like slow motion, and they were not lethal at all.

Wu Chao sneered, raised his legs, came first, and kicked Bai Changshun in the chest. Bai Changshun was kicked away immediately, fell more than three feet away, the corners of his mouth were bleeding, the helmet was flying, and the heart goggles were also kicked, Bai Changshun's limbs and bones were as if they were about to be broken, and he was in pain. Bai Changshun struggled to get up from the ground, unconvinced, and pounced on Wu Chao again, slamming his fists and fighting again.

This time he flew farther, fell more than four feet, vomited blood in his mouth, and could not get up again. Wang Long, Li Ji and other pawns saw that Captain Bai was beaten by this person, they were furious and rushed up, but then they were thrown out like sandbags, and they fell into the patio one by one, grinning their teeth, crying for their fathers and calling their mothers, covering their waists and covering their buttocks. Wu Chao held the scabbard in his left hand and sneered: "What kind of Wei Wang's subordinates, it's just a bunch of waste!"

There was a clever pawn who got up from the ground and rushed to deliver a letter to Jin Chengzhang, Wu Chao stood on the steps, proudly looking at these pawns who fell to the ground, quite a sense of self-esteem. Suddenly, I heard someone outside the courtyard of Caoshutang asking loudly: "Who beat my Jin Chengzhang's soldiers?" Niu Mandi and Wu Chao both looked outside the courtyard together, only to see a tall man with thick eyebrows, big eyes and red face walking into the courtyard, followed by Ning Chenggang and a team of pro-soldiers.

Wu Chao looked at Jin Chengzhang, clasped his arms in front of his chest, looked arrogant, and said coldly: "I beat it, but it's just a bunch of waste!

Jin Chengzhang strode forward and came to the bottom of the steps two feet away, then stopped, twisted his neck, his expression was hideous, and replied gloomily: "Okay, you have a kind of soldier who dares to beat me Jin Chengzhang! Don't worry, you will remember me immediately!"
