Chapter 173: The Secret Passage
Looking at the swarthy entrance to the tunnel that seemed to be able to devour a qiē, Wang Lie sneered, he didn't expect them to have an inn stronghold in Taiyuan City, this Fan Feng didn't find out, the Murong family really made a lot of preparations, I don't know how many cities in the world have this kind of stronghold, I originally thought that Xiaoyaozi was already a big deal in arranging manors in various big cities, compared to the Murong family, they even had an arrangement in this place in Taiyuan, and it was really a rhythm of rebellion.
Wang Lie complained in his heart, touched a brush from the counter and threw it down, according to the echo roughly judged the depth of the tunnel entrance, the true qi drummed to protect the whole body, stepped into the tunnel entrance, the body fell rapidly, Wang Lie stretched out his hand and pressed on the wall, gently stepped on the ground, looked up, the entrance of the cave with a diameter of about one meter can only see a circle, the whole person is like the bottom of the well, they actually dug the tunnel so deep, no wonder they didn't hear their movement in and out.
Accustomed to the darkness, with the help of the light from above, Wang Lie looked at the environment around him, now he seemed to be at the bottom of a well, but the surrounding space was the size of a small house, a bit like the bottom of a thin bottle, and there was a small door on the wall in front of him, which was also closed at the moment.
Wang Lie walked to the side of the small door, put his ear on the small door, there was silence behind the door, there was no sound, unless someone was proficient in the Turtle Breath Gong, otherwise the breathing sound would definitely not be able to hide his ear power, Wang Lie didn't believe that they were so coincidental that someone was proficient in the Turtle Breath Gong, and there was no luck behind it.
Gently pushed, still did not push open, the door was also locked inside, Wang Lie used the same method to break the door bolt, pushed the door open and dodged in, and closed the door with his backhand.
Wang Lie leaned against the door and waited for a while, making sure that no one was there, at this time he was a few feet underground, there was no light at all, and it was dark in front of him. can only discredit the way forward, Wang Lie couldn't help but regret that he didn't ask Li Suning for a night pearl to take with him, but he had his way, and the true qi poured out from the soles of his feet. Extend out of the body three feet away to explore the ground situation, which is why he has deep internal strength and can do this, if he is not strong enough, his internal strength will be exhausted after not taking two steps.
Walked cautiously for most of the hour. After a few turns in the middle, this road has not yet come to an end, Rao is Wang Lie's skill, so it is a little unbearable to explore the road with true qi all the way, he stopped and recovered a little, and calculated, he walked out for about three or four miles, I really don't know how they cultivated such a long secret passage, could it be that Murong Longcheng also has a character like Hua Hegen?
What Wang Lie didn't know was that this Taiyuan was only more than 100 miles away from Yanmen Pass in the north, and Yanmen Pass was heavily defended and difficult to start. The Murong family arranged a tight den in Taiyuan, also to make it more convenient for future troubles. It took them several generations and nearly a hundred years to build this secret passage alone, and it led straight outside the city, enough to make an army of hundreds of people enter the city without knowing it in a big battle.
Wang Lie didn't care so much, crossed his knees and breathed for a while, and when his strength was restored, he got up and continued to walk, walking for more than an hour. A door appeared in front of Wang Lie's eyes again, it seemed that they were still very well guarded, each door was locked from the inside, if someone found the secret passage and forcibly broke the door. This secret passage has a natural sound transmission function, so it will naturally be discovered, but they didn't expect Wang Lie to have this kind of skill to fight cattle across the mountain, and he broke into the door quietly.
Breaking into the door again, Wang Lie found that he had entered a very wide space, and he couldn't see how big it was. The true qi emanated out three zhang has not touched the wall, Wang Lie has been blind for half a year, and the darkness does not hinder his actions, he walked around the wall for a week, and it didn't take long to figure out the layout of this place, this space is dozens of zhang in size, and there are some boxes stacked on the ground, and there are some weapons and swords in the boxes, and when he arrives here, Wang Lie is already very sure that this is a stronghold that the Murong family has been planning for a long time, and even the weapons used by the soldiers are ready. There were several small doors in the walls around the hall, which were supposed to lead to various locations. They really put a lot of thought into this secret passage, looking at the situation, this underground secret passage system can go to various places in Taiyuan City, no wonder Fan Feng didn't find out that they were going back and forth, and they were going underground.
Using True Qi to probe and follow the footprints of the previous secret passage through this hall, Wang Lie entered a secret passage again, this secret passage was even more complicated than the previous one, and it didn't take long to have a bend, and after walking for a long time, Wang Lie finally came to a small door again.
This time, before he could push the door, he heard a low voice from behind the door. Wang Lie cautiously approached the door and pricked up his ears to listen to the conversation inside.
"Why are you here? Didn't you tell you to keep an eye on the city, and what is the matter with pulling the bell to let me down?"
"I can't help it. A deep voice said, Wang Lie recognized it as the innkeeper's voice as soon as he heard it, "After you caught someone and left, I pretended to be sleepy for nothing, who knew that a guest came back from the inn, it turned out to be a martial arts master, he found out that Fan Feng was robbed, I didn't even find out that they were in a gang before, our matter is not small, that person's martial arts are very high, I am definitely not his opponent, isn't this here to ask what to do?"
"Confused! As soon as you disappear, others won't notice that there is a problem?" shouted the man who had just arrived.
"He's already gone out to investigate, and when I came, he locked all the doors, and he won't find out, even if he finds out that there will be movement as soon as he breaks the door, and then he will be arrested." That person must be Fan Feng's accomplice, in my opinion, let's go and a few people take him down, otherwise if he informs Wang Lie, will there be an accident?" said the innkeeper.
"Don't take any chances if you don't know the identity of that person yet, you can find a way to find out first. The young master didn't know why he suddenly came to Taiyuan City, Mr. Deng went to see the young master, and he would decide what to do when he came back. ”
"Okay, I'll go back and get to the bottom of the man, and I hope he hasn't noticed anything wrong. The innkeeper said.
"Don't use the secret passage casually if there is nothing important in the future, in case it leaks out, will you be responsible?"
"I see. Next time, there must be something important to use again. I'm also too nervous, the first time I do this kind of thing, I think everyone is looking for trouble. The innkeeper said.
"Don't wait for next time, you don't have a chance. A voice came into the ears of the two of them, and then there was a soft click, and the door behind them suddenly opened, and a figure floated in like a ghost, and the two of them were startled at the same time, and the figure of the person behind him moved to the wall.
Wang Lie shook open the door, flashed in, as soon as he entered the door, he volleyed two empty spots, the lights were lit here, and suddenly from the darkness to the bright light, Wang Lie closed his eyes before opening his eyes again, only to see the innkeeper standing on the spot like a wooden man, his face was full of panic, there was a middle-aged man standing not far in front of him, the man's hand had just touched a rope on the wall, but before he could pull it, he had been pointed by Wang Lie on the acupoint, he was already very fast, as soon as he heard the sound, he reached out to pull the rope and wanted to notify the people above, but unfortunately Wang Lie had locked their position with his breath before he spoke, and as soon as he opened the door, he immediately shot at their acupointin order to prevent them from giving warnings.
"Unexpectedly, the innkeeper who looks honest has a different identity. Wang Lie looked at the two people who couldn't move and smiled. "If it hadn't happened, I really didn't know that I would have become a den of thieves if I found an inn to live in. ”
The two men couldn't move or speak, but the look in their eyes was anger and doubt, and more fear.
"Don't you wonder who I am, don't be curious, it has nothing to do with you anyway. Wang Lie said: "Don't worry, I won't kill you for the time being, I'll go up and take a look first, if I can save people, maybe I can spare your life." (To be continued.) )
