Yang Qinhu watched Brother Sang's men go away with a smile on his face, and his heart was extremely depressed, and he didn't know how to solve the matter explained by Brother Sang. On the one hand, there is the deterrence of the government, and on the other hand, the pressure of the remnants of the Song Dynasty, which is really difficult.

Fang Cai himself rejected Sang Ge's request, feeling that he had brought endless troubles, and Sang Ge would never give up.

Not long after Brother Sang left, his subordinate Zhuang Ding came to report: "Suzhou garrison Gao Jinghui is rectifying people and preparing to encircle and suppress Xuanyuan Village." ”

Yang Qinhu was taken aback, although Brother Sang would find trouble for himself sooner or later, but it would not be so fast.

He pondered for a while, felt that the matter could not be delayed, returned to the inner room, withdrew his men, came to a vase in the corner, put his hand in it, and stroked it for a while, and the wall behind him creaked backwards, flashing an iron door, and he stepped into it, and went deeper and deeper down the winding stone steps.

The sky has been dark, the surroundings are shrouded in night, although it is the sixteenth day of the first month, but the sky is full of clouds, no stars and moons, Lu Ya changed back to men's clothes at this time, since he arrived in Suzhou, he can't go to see Xiao Yutian in women's clothes, he washed off the lead on his face with snow water, but still left a little residual red on his neck and behind his ears. Yin Lan laughed at him for being a big face, but Lu Ya was a little frustrated, naturally because he had no chance to ride with Yin Lan again.

There is still some distance from Xuanyuan Village, but I saw the fire in front of me, and the smoke rushed straight to Xiaohan, which was particularly eye-catching in the dark night. Yin Lan secretly said that it was not good, Xuanyuan Zhuang had an accident, and immediately urged the horse to gallop, and Lu Ya chased after him on foot.

Although he saw the fire from afar, it was not short to get to the place of the accident, although Lu Ya's light body kung fu was good, but where could he catch up with Rhubarb's footsteps. When Lu Ya arrived, Yin Lan was gone, only Rhubarb stood alone outside the village, Lu Ya saw that the huge manor was full of fire, a plaque fell to the ground, still burning, engraved with the word Xuanyuan, but the word Zhuang had been burned out, Xuanyuan Village covers an area of 100 hectares, and there are no people around, even the people who put out the fire can't see one.

Lu Ya was worried about Yin Lan's safety, so he dived into the sea of fire alone, but where was her shadow, so he had to call Yin Lan's name loudly while looking for it, and the sound that answered him was the crackling sound of wood being cracked by the fire.

When I came to the backyard, I saw that there was a garden in the backyard, because there was a pool near the garden, so the fire in front of it was cut off here, and the garden was the inner house of Xuanyuan Village, Lu Ya walked in, and saw Yin Lan standing there blankly, wearing a brocade dress lined with long hair flying in the wind, and the pool behind her reflected her body in a fiery red, which looked extremely gorgeous and desolate.

Lu Ya had no intention of appreciating it at this time, and said loudly: "Miss Yin......"

Yin Lan turned her head and shed tears, Lu Ya came close and asked, "Miss Yin, what happened?"

Yin Lan threw herself into his arms and cried: "I don't know what to do, where have they gone? ”

Lu Ya stroked her hair and said softly: "They should be fine, you see that this village is empty, there are no corpses, it seems that they may not be burned to death." ”

Yin Lan raised her head and looked at Lu Ya and asked, "Really?"

Lu Ya replied casually: "Trust me." ”

Yin Lan nodded, but she was still not very relieved.

Although Lu Ya didn't know why such a big fire would be caused by Lu Dao, he felt that this fire seemed to be to cover up something, even if it was a fire, it was impossible for no one in the village to know, and it was obviously deliberately put by someone. If someone came to seek revenge, then where was the corpse? If not, what was it that made the owner of Yang Zhuang give up such a big family business?

Lu Ya said as he walked to the window of the inner room, and the ghost head knife he inadvertently snatched from Xing Kaiyang touched the window sill, only to hear a sound.

"How is this house iron?" Lu Yaqi said.

Yin Lan came to Lu Ya's side and knocked on the wall with her hand, sure enough, it was not wood and stone, but made of fine iron, she looked at Lu Ya suspiciously: "Sure enough, but so what?"

Lu Ya said: "I guess Lord Yang Zhuang and your father-in-law will be somewhere in this room, this house is so special, it is not good to say that there is a secret passage or something." ”

Yin Lan was puzzled: "Then my father must be inside?"

Lu Ya said: "Then I don't know the way, but let's go and find out, maybe there will be some clues, it's better than being in a daze here." ”

Yin Lan was worried about the safety of her father-in-law, and she had no idea at this time, maybe it was really as Lu Ya said, so she nodded and agreed.

When the two of them came to the inner room, it was still empty, and the furniture was not luxurious, a table of eight immortals, four chairs, a bookcase, and the drapery on the bed was low, and there was no one in sight. Lu Ya knocked them one by one with a knife, and they were all made of metal, and even the ground was iron, and there seemed to be nothing unusual other than that.

Yin Lan also came to this room for the first time, and she didn't see anything special, so she suddenly looked up and saw a candlestick on the south wall, and there was a bronze vase under the candlestick, and there seemed to be two lines of words flashing in the night between the candlestick and the vase, Yin Lan beckoned Lu Ya to come and see together.

Lu Ya took out the fire fold and lit the candle, and saw that there was indeed a line of small characters on the wall, so he read: "The candlelight is accompanied by a long sleep, and the butcher's knife cuts the white lotus." ”

As soon as the words fell, the door slammed shut, Lu Ya screamed, "Not good", grabbed Yin Lan and wanted to grab the window out, there were a lot of windows in this room, but in just an instant, countless iron plates were born from under the windowsill, sealing the windows. (The iron plates are "born" because they emerge through the windowsill, like a plant breaking through the soil.) Immediately afterwards, Yin Lan saw a red light outside the room through the crack in the iron plate, and it was obvious that the iron house was also on fire.

Yin Lan shouted, "There is also a fire here." Suffer!"

Lu Ya naturally saw it, "Obviously, the fire in front of you is still a long way away, why did it burn here in an instant?"

Yin Lan said: "It must have been that we touched some mechanism, so there was a fire here." ”

The fire burned so fiercely, and the whole room was made of iron, so when they spoke, the two of them already felt breathless.

Lu Ya said: "We have to be grilled as an iron plate? It's a pity that there are no spicy seeds, otherwise it must taste good." ”

Yin Lan hurriedly said: "When is it, are you still laughing?"

Lu Ya went to move the candlestick again, but this time there was no response, he simply took off the candlestick, only to find that there was a thin trace of oil thread behind the candlestick, and the oil thread had been burned by ignition at the right time. It should have been Lu Ya who lit the candlestick, and the flame went down the oil line to the mechanism outside, and then the mechanism was activated, so the two were trapped.

Lu Ya said: "This Zhuangzi is also too weird, how can there be these harmful things?"

Yin Lan looked at the candlestick in his hand and said, "It's better to find a way out." ”

The two of them took a turn in the room again, and there was still no way out, at this time the fire was getting bigger and bigger, even standing on the ground felt that their feet were hot, and the heat wave hit their faces, causing Lu Ya to sweat drenched, but Yin Lan was born with little sweat, although her body was hot, but she couldn't see it at all, it was just one bad, even the soles of her feet were not sweating, so the shoes were dry and dry, and now the fire was fierce, and one of her embroidered shoes began to smoke.

Yin Lan screamed and jumped on the ground, this time she raised her foot, a flame rushed to the surface of her feet, Lu Ya hurriedly hugged her, and also felt that her feet were too hot, she jumped three times and jumped on the table, the table was also iron, it was also scorching, and she couldn't stand for long, Lu Ya simply jumped on the bed again, fortunately, there was a section of wood on the edge of the bed.

Yin Lan said: "Quickly let me down, why are you so rude?"

Lu Ya said: "Why are you scared at this time? Didn't we hold it all the time on the horse just now?"

Yin Lanqiao's face flushed: "You were a woman at that time, how can you do it now?" She knew that the reason for Lu Dao was too far-fetched, but it was always bad to hold her like this in Xuanyuan Village, and to be seen, she forgot for a while, she was in the furnace at this time, and no one could see her.

When Lu Ya heard this, Ha Lu Ha Da laughed, "You are deceiving yourself, maybe we are going to burn here, why do you have to worry so much?" Lu Ya paused, and then said: "Miss Yin, what if we die here today?"

Yin Lan's eyes widened in horror and said, "No, I don't want to die, I'm only seventeen years old, you can think of a way." ”

Lu Ya sighed and said: "I can't do anything, since the heavens want us to die together, I have to accept my fate." ”

Yin Lan was so frightened that she cried, and she didn't know what to say.

Lu Ya comforted: "Don't cry, I'll hold you, if you burn it, you will burn me first." First burn my legs, then I'll lift you up, then my arms, and then my head, and I hope you'll hold on until the moment someone comes to save you. ”

Yin Lan listened to his words becoming more and more light at this time, but she felt that he was sincere, so she hammered him in the chest with her fist and said, "Why do you treat me so well, I don't want to look at you dead, it's ugly." As he spoke, he burst into tears and laughed, and when he thought that the two of them would become ghosts in an instant, he began to cry again in a blink of an eye.

Lu Ya gradually felt that the soles of his feet were hot at this time, and the wood on the edge of the bed could no longer withstand the fire, and began to smoke. Lu Ya held Yin Lan in his right hand, and with his left hand, he picked up the teapot on the table with a ghost head knife, and there was half a pot of tea in it, pouring the tea onto the wood, only to see a white mist rise, and there was a sound.

Lu Ya held Yin Lan in his arms with his backhand, Yin Lan no longer objected, looked at Lu Ya's eyes, and said, "How long will you hold it?"

Lu Ya saw Yin Lan's pear blossom with rain, and said, "Hug it to death." ”

Yin Lan hooked her hand around his neck and buried her head in his arms, Lu Ya only felt that his chest was wet and cold, and he didn't know if Yin Lan was crying because he was moved or scared. But he felt in his heart that if the two of them had to die, then he hoped that Yin Lan could die later, so he suddenly got up and said, "I haven't grown so old yet...... I haven't kissed a girl yet, can I ......?"

Yin Lan raised her face and said, "I still think about this when I die." Before she finished speaking, she was gently kissed by Lu Ya, and this kiss seemed to make her no longer afraid, so she accepted this kiss.

Lu Ya said: "I want to die left and right, since I am so close to Miss Yin, it is better to show my heart, so as not to have a chance to say it." ”

Yin Lan still had tears in her eyes, and when she heard Lu Ya say this, she simply turned her heart sideways and said with a smile, "Don't call me Miss Yin, call me Lan'er." ”

Lu Ya didn't know what Yin Lan was thinking at this time, so he said: "Lan'er, I like you very much from the first time I saw you, do you know Lu Dao?"

Yin Lan's heart was beating hard, she had a good impression of Lu Ya, and she liked him from the bottom of her heart, but at this time, when she heard Lu Ya say this, she still felt shy: "So straightforward......"

Lu Ya was overjoyed, although he was in danger and was about to be a ghost, he felt extremely happy in his heart.

Yin Lan was under the candlelight, her face was full of red light, she was shy, her eyes were full of tears, but she was smiling, and her heart seemed to be like a fire outside her body, about to melt herself.

Suddenly, the fire at the vase burst out, illuminating the corner brightly, Lu Ya just saw a white lotus engraved on the vase, and Lu Ya woke up suddenly.

He put down Yin Lan, Yin Lan looked at him in surprise, but his hand was still hooked around his neck, only to hear Lu Ya say: "Candlelight with long sleep, butcher knife slashing white lotus, do you say that vase will be another mechanism?"

Yin Lan also suddenly woke up at this time, "I can't tell, maybe there is really some mechanism there, so you'd better not go." ”

Lu Ya said: "Left and right are one death, it's better to fight, you stand here, I'll go over and take a look." ”

Saying that, he flew and jumped off the ground, and as soon as his feet touched the ground, he immediately caught fire, Lu Ya quickly jumped back and stepped on the fire, and the soles of his shoes had burned a big hole.

Yin Lan asked with concern, "How is it?" ”

With this question, Lu Ya suddenly felt that all dangers were nothing, and he smiled at Yin Lan: "It doesn't matter, look at me." ”

After that, he picked up the ghost head knife and cut off a few pieces of the edge of the bed, and threw it on the ground, he stepped on the broken wood to the vase, and slashed the white lotus with a knife, and the white lotus fell in response, and a pull ring appeared inside. Lu Ya pulled it with his hand, only to hear a sound behind him, Lu Ya looked back, and an iron door turned open.

Yin Lan stood on the bed and saw it at the same time, and shouted excitedly: "Ah——!ah——!ah——!"

Lu Ya was naturally very excited to survive, and smiled at Yin Lan: "It seems that we don't have to die together." I'm afraid you'll have to live together in the future, hahaha. ”

When Yin Lan heard this, she frowned, thinking to herself, it would be good if she really died here with him, but if she could really survive this time, I am afraid that she would ....... It's just that there are some words that can't be spoken, so he said: "Don't be happy yet, wait until you really survive." ”

Lu Ya didn't know what she was thinking, jumped in front of her in a few steps, and said happily: "Don't worry, as long as I live for one day, I will keep you from dying." ”

After speaking, he hugged Yin Lan again, Yin Lan gave him a blank look, and said, "Why did you hug it again?"

Lu Ya said, "Do you want to go over?" He was a little carried away with joy, and kissed Yin Lan's thin lips again.

Yin Lan thought that no one could stand on the ground no matter what, so she had to be hugged by him and said, "Let's go, you will know your relatives." ”

Lu Ya jumped into the iron gate according to the original method.

The two walked into the iron gate, it was pitch black inside, fortunately the ground was full of stones, but the road ahead was a little hot, and it was getting colder and colder the way down, Yin Lan said: "There is no fire anymore, and no one will be let down." ”

Lu Ya reluctantly put Yin Lan down, and said, "It's not enough." ”

As soon as Yin Lan's feet landed, he let out an "oops", and Lu Ya immediately understood that it turned out that in the iron house just now, the soles of Yin Lan's shoes had been burned off, and the stone slab had been underground for a long time, and it was very cold.

Lu Ya helped Yin Lan sit on the stone steps, holding Yin Lan's little feet with both hands, and asked, "Is it cold?"

Yin Lan nodded, but Lu Ya kissed her on the instep of her foot, Yin Lan trembled, and said angrily: "Don't be naughty, kiss right away, kiss in the iron house, come here and kiss." After saying that, I regretted it, and thought to myself, what is wrong with me? How can I be so?

Lu Ya said: "It turns out that you will know the Tao soon." You were still sleeping soundly. ”

Yin Lan smiled: "I don't know how to go, we are so close......" Speaking of the voice, the voice behind it was as thin as a gnat, almost inaudible.

Lu Ya smiled evilly at her, Yin Lan looked at him, and felt sad in his heart, he was so happy now, but what if he knew that it would be difficult for us to be together after all?

Lu Ya saw her stunned when she looked at her, pinched her little feet in her hands, and said softly: "What's the matter? Is it better to press like this? I pressed my father's feet like this when I was a child." ”

Yin Lan said: "It's much better, my feet are not tired, but the ground is a little cold." ”

Lu Ya heard that he untied the burden on his body, took out the women's clothes he had stolen last night from inside, took out the embroidered shoes inside, put them on for Yin Lan with his own hands, and said, "Although it is bigger, I finally don't have to hug you anymore." ”

Yin Lan cleaned up her mind and said, "We still have to continue to find a way out." When he spoke, he looked a little lonely.

Lu Ya saw it in his eyes, but he didn't care, he didn't know what Yin Lan was thinking in his heart, but she was still worried about not being able to get out of this cage. But in Lu Ya's heart, in the past two days and two nights, although he has experienced thrills and setbacks, he has experienced the happiest time in ten years. Maybe the life on the mountain is too ordinary, maybe the beautiful scenery of Suzhou and Hangzhou is too beautiful, maybe the adventures experienced are too dangerous, maybe it is because he has Lan'er by his side since then, he doesn't want to investigate these many reasons, he looks at Yin Lan's face at this time, and just wants to know if Lu Dao is in love with someone, is it enough for such a short time.

And Yin Lan wanted to know how long this sudden relationship would last.

The two of them took a short nap and continued to walk underground, the long road seemed to have no end in sight. The more she walked down, the more slippery the ground became, Yin Lan's shoes were too big, she almost slipped a few times, Lu Ya held each other with her hands, Yin Lan gently moved her arm back, but Lu Ya held her hand, she twisted slightly, failed to break free, and let Lu Ya hold it like this, just escaped from death, Lu Ya had no scruples, took Yin Lan's hand, and slowly walked towards Lu Xia with her feet.

I don't know how long I walked on the road, and suddenly I saw another door in front of me, this time it was not an iron door, but a stone door, Lu Ya pushed it with his hand, and the stone door did not move.

Yin Lan said: "Since there is a mechanism at the door above, there should be one here, look for it." ”

Lu Ya said: "This owner is too weird, why do you still set up so many organs in the house?"

Yin Lan said: "You don't know the way, this place has existed as early as the previous dynasty, and it used to be a wasteland where the dead were buried, although it was adjacent to Suzhou, and there were no people in a radius of dozens of miles. After the Mongol army conquered Jiangnan, that is, almost ten years ago, Xuanyuan Village was built, but the owner of the village at that time was not surnamed Yang. ”

Lu Yaqi said: "Then how did this Yang Zhuang owner get such a big industry." ”

Yin Lan said: "I don't know the specifics, at that time, the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, that is, Kublai Khan, who they called 'Great Khan', wanted to let the people of Jiangnan recuperate, and recruited many rich families from all over the country to come here, so the owner of Yang Zhuang was able to buy this abandoned mansion." Later, his business became bigger and bigger, and he had dealings with some officials of the Yuan Dynasty, so in the area of Suzhou and Hangzhou, Xuanyuan Zhuang was very famous. ”

Lu Ya nodded, he couldn't imagine that Xuanyuan Village was built after the death of the Song Dynasty, but this crypt should have been built in the previous dynasty. In addition, Zhang Shijie mentioned by Yin Lan before is a big housekeeper here, this Zhuangzi may have a lot to do with the relics of the Southern Song Dynasty. Some things still don't understand: Since Zhang Shijie is the chief housekeeper here, why did he only come to Xuanyuan Village in the past few days? Where did the remnants of the Southern Song Dynasty go in the middle of the ten years? Is his father still alive, where have Jiang Cheng, Deng Yan, and Zhao Yu been in the past ten years, and what have they done? And now that the owner of Yang Zhuang has easily abandoned this place, what is the hidden secret? It seems that he has been in the mountains for a long time, and he has long been numb to the things in the world like his master Xin Buping.

Suddenly, Yin Lan said, "It's here." ”

I saw her press on a brick with her hand, but the stone door still did not move.

Lu Ya took the candlelight and looked closer, only to see a wet handprint on an ordinary stone brick, this handprint was definitely not Yin Lan's, because he already knew that Yin Lan did not sweat, and the handprint was very large, I think the person who pressed the organ was a sweaty person, and the ground was damp, so this handprint was preserved. Lu Ya compared with his own hand, and the handprint was several rings larger than his palm, which showed that this person was very tall.

Lu Ya also pressed the stone brick with his hand, but there was still no response, except for this handprint, there was nothing special around.

Yin Lan thought for a moment, and suddenly said: "The road is uneven, you can see if there are any handprints on the other side of the stone gate." ”

Lu Ya looked at it, and sure enough, he found that there was also a handprint on the other side of the door, which was symmetrical to the left and right side of the door, and was generally the same size.

The two of them pressed the stone bricks at the same time, only to hear the stone door ring, and the sound of the call opened. The two looked at each other and smiled, and Lu Ya said: "You are so smart, this Yang Zhuang master must be a person who is extremely tall or has extremely long arms, otherwise it is really not easy to open this door with the ability of one person." ”

Yin Lan said: "This kind of door also has one in my father-in-law's house. It's just that it takes two people to open it every time. ”

Lu Ya smiled: "Fortunately, I have you by my side." ”

The stone door opened, and Yin Lan was also very happy, "It's good to have you." ”

The words seem to say Shimen, but they seem to have infinite deep meaning, and the two of them tacitly step into the door hand in hand.
