After standing on the top of the mountain for a while, Wu Zheng suddenly had an idea, Wu Zheng could no longer care about catching hares and pheasants, raised his feet and rushed down the mountain, and soon returned to Shuntian City from the east gate. Of course, before entering the city, he did not forget to change out of the blue cloth jacket and put on the gray robe.

Unexpected, it is unfathomable.

Wu Zheng thought to himself, because he was deceived by Wu Gan with a fake or incomplete martial arts secret book "Lingxiao Nine Styles", how could Liu Shiqing be willing to give up?

After entering the city, he ate something casually, pretended to be nothing, and strolled around the Rising Sun Street for a while. Taking advantage of the unpreparedness, he quickly came to the northwest corner of the courtyard wall that had climbed into the deserted corner of the courtyard behind Liufu the night before, climbed up the courtyard wall, jumped and hugged the thick elm trunk and slipped in.

Wu Zheng, who was familiar with the road once, had just crossed the second courtyard wall and entered the back garden of Liufu when he heard footsteps coming from the other end of the verandah, and there was more than one person listening to the sound. It's just that it's too late to leave over the wall now, and in a hurry, Wu Zheng didn't dare to hide in the bush of arrows and bamboos, so he had to sneak into the pond in the back garden.

The temperature in Suncheon Fortress at the beginning of March is not very high, so the water in the pond is not bitterly cold, but it is really difficult to stay for a long time. Holding his breath, he stuck to the root of the underwater part of a Taihu Lake stone, and silently prayed in his heart that he had entered the back garden, and the two subordinates of Liufu left quickly.

Contrary to their wishes, the two not only did not leave immediately, but went straight to the pond.

"Liu Yong, what do you mean by what the housekeeper just said?"

"You're stupid, don't you just want us to serve the one below, the master may enjoy it at any time. ”

"Alas, another good daughter is about to suffer. ”

"Liu Qing, you don't want to die?!"

"Isn't it?"

"You can't just say it, if you really don't want to live, don't burden me. ”

While talking, the two came to a towering Taihu Lake stone next to the pond, only to see that Liu Yong didn't know where to touch it, and the huge Taihu Lake stone immediately made a creaking sound at the same time, it was sinking into the water little by little, so that the water in the pond was stirred up violently.

Soon, the whole Taihu Lake stone was exposed to the water except for the spire part less than three feet square, and the rest had been completely submerged in the water. And Wu Zheng happened to be hiding under this Taihu Lake stone, so when he just made a move, Wu Zheng found out.

Until the Taihu Lake Stone stopped sinking, it was vaguely found from the water that two people walked on the top of the Taihu Lake Stone that was only less than three feet exposed, and disappeared one after another, Wu Zheng quietly emerged from the water, and found that there was a dark hole mouth that could accommodate one person on the top of the Taihu Lake Stone left on the water surface.

Remembering that Liu Shiqing had said the night before yesterday that if one person was let go, all the subordinates of the Liu Mansion would be imprisoned in the water prison, Wu Zheng thought to himself, obviously this should be the entrance to the so-called water prison of Taishi Liu Shiqing.

"Do you want to follow?"

In the water, he didn't hear the conversation between the two subordinates of Liufu, so Wu Zheng hesitated for a while, listened to the movement in the cave, and finally supported the edge of the entrance with both hands, and quietly stepped on the steps into the cave.

When there were no more steps under his feet, his eyes adjusted to the darkness in the cave, and he saw that there was a sloping passage in front of him, and he could faintly hear the footsteps of the two just now, as well as the sound of intermittent conversation. Because there was an echo in the passage, and it was not clear what the two were talking about. Wu Zheng didn't hesitate any longer, cautiously, stepping on the rhythm of the footsteps of the two, and followed all the way.

I didn't expect the passage to be so long, but I walked for a quarter of an hour before a faint light appeared in front of me, and the two family members of the Liu Mansion also stopped. Then there was the sound of the lock being opened, followed by the sound of the iron door being opened.

After the two opened an iron gate and continued to go deeper, Wu Zheng raised his feet and followed.

When Wu Zheng came to the iron door that had been opened just now, he was immediately startled by the scene in front of him.

It turned out that inside the iron gate was a very large cave hall, and two huge oil lamps were hung on the top of the cave hall, but because the cave hall was too large, the light inside was not bright. Through the dim light, Wu Zheng looked over and saw that the two Liufu family members were walking down a staircase carved out of the stone wall of the cave hall. Seeing the light and shadow of the two huge oil lamps reflected at the bottom of the cave hall, Wu Zheng understood that below was the water prison of Liufu.

From the iron gate, you can vaguely see that there are several iron cages half-sunk in the water on the water surface of the water prison, compared to the original sinking into the water snake bay, Guan Wu Zheng's iron cage is much larger, and the iron bar is also a lot thicker. Each cage was suspended from a beam by a chain as thick as a child's arm.

I saw that the two subordinates of Liufu, who were already standing on the ground on the bottom side of the water prison, jointly lifted a long hook, stretched it out and put it on one of the iron cages, and pulled it towards the shore with all their might, and when the iron cage gradually broke away from the water and was less than a foot away from the shore, the two quickly hung the other end of the hook on the hook that had been prepared on the stone wall of the cave hall.

Standing on it, Wu Zheng could vaguely tell that it should be a woman in the iron cage that was pulled out, because the person in the cage was relatively petite, and had long hair that was scattered and slightly bulging chests.

Waiting for the two subordinates of Liufu to breathe for a while, they opened a small door in the iron cage, and heard one of them say to the people in the cage:

"The girl will not suffer such a sin again, and now let us go to another comfortable place. ”

As he spoke, he helped the people inside out.

"Liu Qing, it's better for you to carry her, it looks like you can't go. ”

"Alas, what a wicked man. ”

Until Liu Qing carried the wet man from the waist down in the cage on his back and walked down the steps step by step until he was halfway there, the man never said a word.

originally thought that Liu Qing would carry people out all the time, so Wu Zheng hurriedly retreated to the back garden along the passage and hid in the pond again. just waited for a while and found that there was no movement, and the two subordinates of the Liu Mansion did not come out with their backs, which made Wu Zheng suspicious.

"Is there something else in there?"

Drilling out of the water again, he went to the entrance of the cave and listened for a while, and found that there was no sound inside, Wu Zheng could already determine that the comfortable place that Liu Qing said did not mean the outside, but there must be places inside that he had not discovered.

Of course, Wu Zheng would not miss it, so he entered the cave again and quickly groped towards the iron gate.

It's just that to Wu Zheng's surprise, until he returned to the big iron gate that was still open, not only did he not find any other exits, but even the two Liufu people just now were gone.
