Zhang Xiaozu's subtle state of mind extended along the dark passage and invaded the stone chamber at the end of the passage. As he was secretly observing the scene in the stone chamber, a tall and tall man in gray clothes entered his subtle state of mind with a smile on his face, holding tea in his hand. Mood coverage.
At first sight of the face of the man in gray, Zhang Xiaozhu's face immediately showed an expression of extreme shock, because he knew this man, he was actually Qi Yoyo's eldest brother Qi Changfeng.
But he immediately discovered that the Qi Changfeng in the stone room was not the same person as the Qi Changfeng he had seen in the City Lord's Mansion, because the Qi Changfeng in the stone room had rough and dull skin, a haggard and waxy face, and a slightly thin body.
Although the whole person was neatly tidied up, his hair and clothes were already stained by dust and oil. His hair was not so much coiled on his head as it was buckled on his head like a big cake. His gray clothes were already stained by dust. The stains were polished until they were hard and translucent, and the original color could no longer be seen.
From this man's appearance, Zhang Xiaozu could conclude that he must have stayed in this dark underground stone room for a long, long time, at least several years.
Therefore, this person is definitely not Qi Changfeng, who has outstanding temperament and elegant demeanor in the city lord's palace.
So, that means the real Qi Changfeng is not dead, but is being imprisoned in this underground stone chamber without anyone noticing.
And when the man walked around, the shackles exposed when the hem of his clothes swayed, telling Zhang Xiaozu more clearly that he was Qi Changfeng, the real Qi Changfeng.
"Who are you?!" The person in the passage turned a corner and saw Wan Qiuqing standing at the door. His tone suddenly became higher and he asked gloomily and vigilantly.
"Wow - Uncle Master -" Wan Qiuqing suddenly curled up his lips and burst into tears. He shouted "Uncle Master" with great sadness and grievance. Just like a child who was bullied outside, full of misery and grievance, he turned around the corner. I bumped into an adult at the street corner, and the emotions in my heart suddenly came out.
Zhang Xiaopou hid aside and was startled by Wan Qiu's sudden and cold cry. Seeing Wan Qiuqing's emotional expression, he couldn't help but remind himself that he must be more cautious when dealing with the city lord's wife in the future, otherwise he would definitely be deceived by her.
"Why are you crying?! Did something happen outside?! Where is Lao Du, Du Ziteng?!" People in the passage asked repeatedly. Wan Qiuqing's blond hair, blue eyes and mournful crying made him relax some of his vigilance.
"Uncle, my - our people have been exposed, all - all - Mr. Du, he - he can't escape. Uncle, the big-toothed dog is too bullying! Wuwu——" Wan Qiu Qing sobbed and whimpered.
"What did you say?!" The people in the passage felt like a bolt from the blue when they heard this. They couldn't believe their ears and asked with trembling lips: "Old Du, he - he is dead?!"
As he spoke, his body quickly crawled out of the passage.
Zhang Xiaozu leaned against the wall, fearing that someone would find him.
However, the person in the passage did not crawl out, but stopped a few feet away from the entrance of the cave. He stretched out his rough and cracked hands like old tree bark and waved to Wan Qiuqing, comforting him softly: "Good boy. , don’t be afraid, Lao Du is gone, there is still Uncle Master. Come in quickly, don’t be discovered."
"Yes." Wan Qiuqing nodded quickly, wiped his tears, and bent down to get into the passage.
Zhang Xiaopou hid behind the wall and couldn't help but stare. Wan Qiuqing went in, what should he do? Continue to stay here, or go and call someone?
Just when he was at a loss, Wan Qiuqing crawled into the narrow passage. When he was close to the big-tooth man in the passage, he was still one step away. The big-tooth man suddenly let out a sinister laugh, and his body suddenly jumped forward, withered Hands like tree roots grasped Wanqiu
Clear face door.
"Ah!" Wan Qiuqing exclaimed.
Zhang Xiaozhu's heart skipped a beat and it was not good to scream. But when he saw Wan Qiuqing screaming in surprise, the corners of his mouth raised, and the Sanqing Sword suddenly thrust out.
It turned out that neither of them trusted the other, each had their own agenda, and they both wanted to kill each other.
Pfft——
Wan Qiuqing was more skilled, and the sharp blade of the blue and white sword broke through the big-tooth man's true energy defense and pierced the big-tooth man's head.
"The human heart is deceitful!" Zhang Xiaozhu's eyes were focused, and Wan Qiuqing and the big-tooth man in the passage taught him an extremely vivid lesson.
"Why are you still standing outside?" Wan Qiuqing's voice sounded in the passage.
Zhang Xiaozu responded and saw that the big-toothed people in the stone chamber did not have any abnormal reaction. It must be because the passage was long and narrow and turned a few corners, so the sound from outside did not reach in, so the big-toothed people inside were not alarmed.
"Here we come." Zhang Xiaozu ducked into the passage, chased after Wan Qiuqing, and said in a low voice: "Madam, last time I got rid of the corpse poison for the second young master and saved his life, you haven't given me anything yet. Here’s the reward.”
Wan Qiuqing was stunned for a moment, not understanding why Zhang Xiaozu suddenly mentioned this matter. He rolled his eyes and suddenly stopped. He turned around and stared into Zhang Xiaozu's eyes. He asked with a smile on his face: "Did you discover the secret room?" There is a treasure inside that makes you envious, so you want me to reward you?"
Without waiting for Zhang Xiaozu's reply, she nodded cheerfully and said: "You are the one who was able to discover the stronghold where the Big Ya people were hiding in Yancheng. If there are treasures in it, you can choose from them. I won't cheat this time, I'm just a puppy!"
"That's not the case." Zhang Xiaozu shook his head and said, "I was thinking, if I save the second young master and then the eldest young master, will the treasure house in my wife's family have to be opened to me once?"
"You - what did you say?!" Wan Qiuqing's body trembled when he heard the words, and the excitement in his heart was uncontrollably revealed on his face. His blood surged up and his cheeks turned red. She stared at Zhang Xiaozu with a pair of almond-shaped eyes, eagerly and fearfully. She was afraid that she had heard wrongly, or that Zhang Xiaozu had said something wrong, and her joy would be in vain.
Zhang Xiaozu smiled and nodded, saying: "The eldest son was not murdered by Big Tooth Dog, but was imprisoned by them in this underground secret room, and he is still alive."
"Really?!" Wan Qiuqing's tears instantly burst into her eyes, and she pursed her lips to prevent herself from crying.
"Really!" Zhang Xiaozu nodded affirmatively.
Wan Qiuqing took a deep breath and wiped away her tears with her sleeves. She suddenly remembered that she just saw Zhang Xiaozu's shocked expression at the door of the passage. Because the big-toothed man came out of the passage, she had no chance to ask Zhang Xiaozu. What happened? Why are you so shocked? Thinking about it now, I know that he saw Qi Changkong, so he showed that expression.
"Let's go!" Wan Qiuqing wiped away her tears, turned around and crawled quickly into the passage.
Zhang Xiaozu followed closely behind her while closely observing what was going on in the secret room. As the distance got closer, Ruwei's state of mind gradually covered the entire secret room, and he discovered that there were two closed stone doors in the innermost part of the secret room. He didn't know what was behind the stone doors.
"Master Qi, I have some good news for you." A big-toothed man sitting at the desk saw Qi Changfeng coming over with tea, put down the brush in his hand, looked at Qi Changfeng and said with a smile.
"Oh, what good news? Let me tell you. Was it my Dayu border that was breached, or was Yancheng breached?" Qi Changfeng took a sip of tea and asked with a smile.
There was only half of the tea in the tea cup in his hand, and it had already cooled down. To be precise, the tea leaves had gone rancid, because this cup of tea had been brewed for five days, but he was still reluctant to drink it in large sips, only sipping it in small sips. Drink. Watch him drink tea down his throat
His expression of enjoyment was as if he was drinking not sour tea, but tea leaves picked from a fairyland.
A cup of tea every half month is Qi Changfeng's greatest enjoyment when he stays in this dark place. Naturally, he should enjoy it slowly.
"We, the Daya Warriors, have broken out of the Black Forest, annihilated Baiyun City's 50,000-strong army, killed Qin Zhenghao, the lord of Baiyun City, and controlled Haoyue and Jincheng. Baiyun City is about to be defeated."
"There is nothing surprising about what was expected." Qi Changfeng rolled his eyelids and said indifferently, "It's just a pity that the lord of Baiyun City died in the battle. He is my father's best friend. My father will decide when he learns about it. It’s incredibly sad.”
"Your father is indeed very sad and angry. He sent an army of 1.8 million people to the north to recapture Haoyue and Jincheng, wipe out my Big Ya army, and save Baiyun City from danger." Big Ya said with a smile.
"Impossible!" Qi Changfeng shook his head directly after hearing this, "Let's not mention that Yancheng does not have an army of 1.8 million. Even if it did, my father would not be able to send a single soldier to support Baiyun City."
"Oh, Mr. Qi is so smart. Then tell me where did this 1.8 million army come from?"
"They must have been recruited from the refugees. The purpose of going north is to put pressure on Jincheng so that you can't attack Baiyun City unscrupulously."
"Awesome!" The Daya people gave Qi Changfeng a thumbs up and praised him, "It's just that our goal has never been Baiyun City. We have only one goal, Yancheng. The day after tomorrow, Li Yuande's million rebel generals came to the south city. Wei Guogong was After helping Emperor Su to open the gate of the imperial capital, this time he will help Li Yuande open the gate of Yancheng. When Li Yuande's rebels invade Yancheng and attract the main force of Yancheng, we Daya warriors will take the opportunity to attack the north city, and The important task of breaking through the south city gate lies with the young master. Hey, I have been here with the young master for eight years, and we are about to be separated, so I am still a little reluctant to part with it."
"Haha, you didn't kill me, but you locked me up here for eight years and kept me better fed and clothed than you all. You just wanted to use me to threaten my father at the most critical moment and make him obey. But I had already I have reminded you that this is a waste of time. My father is loyal to the empire and has a righteous heart. He will never betray the empire because of me." Qi Changfeng sneered, but his mind was confused and he drank two large sips of tea without realizing it.
What disturbed his mood was not his impending death, but the name "Wei Guogong".
During the eight years he has been staying here, the Big Ya people have not guarded against him at all. They have shown him all the information sent to him. Sometimes when he is really bored, he will take the initiative to help the Big Ya people sort out some intelligence materials. Therefore, although he is locked up here, he is more aware of the situation outside than the authorities outside.
But the name Wei Guogong was completely beyond his expectation. As for the power of Wei Guogong, he had heard his mother mention it. If Wei Guogong suddenly attacks, and if my father is not wary of him at all, the consequences will be disastrous.
"There is another piece of good news that I have not told Mr. Qi." The big tooth man said with a sly smile, "Your second brother, Mr. Changkong, was killed by Wei Guogong in Baihuang Mountain more than ten days ago. In addition, your little sister, Miss Yoyo, As you are heading north with the army to serve under Qi Changfeng, news of Miss Yoyo's death in battle will soon come. By then, you will be the only one left in the Qi family. Do you think Mr. Qi will kill his relatives out of justice? Haha——"
when!
Wow!
Qi Changfeng's beloved tea cup fell from his hand and fell to pieces on the ground, with rancid tea leaves splashing all over the floor.
"Good son, don't listen to his nonsense. Your second brother Changkong is alive and well, and your little sister will not be in danger." Wan Qiuqing's excited and ecstatic voice suddenly sounded in the secret room.
