"I said, you two wait for a while!" Wu Shudan rolled his eyes angrily, "Where did you get the idea that this thing is interesting? Brothers, after digging for a long time, you really thought it was What kind of secret passage is this? That’s it? That’s it?”
"There's nothing wrong with that, is there?"
"There's nothing wrong with it, but isn't it a bit inconsistent with our expectations?" Wu Shudan touched his chin, "I thought it was really a secret passage before, but isn't this one a bit too narrow and too short?" He said He jumped directly into the pit, pointing to the upper half of his body, "How do I get through here? Do I have to crawl?"
"That's why we said that this thing is a bit interesting." Hei Lu'er stretched out his hand to pull Wu Shu Dan up, "Xiao Dan, I didn't say that this secret passage is used to pass people. Don't make random guesses. .”
"You never said it, but the secret passage is not used to get over people, so what is it used for?"
"When you chip these away, we'll find out what they're used for."
"All cut?" Wu Shudan rolled his eyes rudely, "I don't know if I'm crazy or you are crazy, boss."
"Your boss must have gone crazy." A Piao chuckled, "You can't do this. I haven't heard that the whole road was dug. How can you get past others when you turn around?"
Wu Shudan nodded, indicating that he agreed with A Piao's words.
"If both of you are against it, then I have no choice. What do you think we should do?"
"Nothing to do, just go down and take a look and you'll know what's going on."
After saying that, without giving Hei Luer and Wu Shu Dan time to object or hold him back, A Piao jumped directly into the pit.
"Hey, Master Piao, you..."
"It's okay, don't worry."
Ah Piao waved her hand towards Wu Shu Dan, who looked frightened. She first looked around, then reached out and tapped the left and right, carefully listening to the movement inside. After finding no abnormality, she squatted down again and used her hand to He pinched the soil on the ground, put it under his nose and smelled it, blinked and showed a faint smile.
"Master Piao, you..."
A Piao smiled and did not respond to him. She just waved to the guard standing by and asked him to hand her the tool in his hand.
"What did you find?" Hei Luer came to the edge of the pit and looked at Ah Piao worriedly, "Be careful and don't be careless. If there is any mechanism inside, you can't fall for it."
"Don't worry, there are no agencies, but there are things that shouldn't be here."
"Things that shouldn't appear here?" Wu Shudan blinked, "What is it?"
"The thing that Shanjia used to be best at." Ah Piao carefully used a small shovel to dig up the soil in the pit, revealing a small piece of something that she didn't know was a fuse. She raised her head and looked at Hei Lu'er and Wu Shu Dan beside the pit. "Look, is this something that shouldn't be here?"
"This..." Hei Luer was very speechless, "What is he planning to do? Bury this kind of thing under the entire Yiqing Mansion? Could it be that after the preparation failed, he would die together with the entire Yiqing Mansion? He has to What do you mean you won’t let others get what you can’t get?”
"Boss, don't tell me, this is really very possible." Wu Shudan curled his lips in disgust, "Based on our understanding of Wanyan Qingmu, this kind of damage to the enemy is a thousand, and self-inflicted is eight hundred." The trick is something that his stupid mind can figure out. But, are you sure it's a fuse?"
"I'm sure." Ah Piao nodded, "The soil down here smells like gunpowder." She sighed softly, "There is no other way now. We can only dig open this whole street and destroy this whole street." The road must be cleaned thoroughly, otherwise it will be really dangerous.”
"This..." Hei Lu'er and Wu Shudan looked at each other, "If it's gunpowder, not only the one leading to the city, but also the road leading to the palace must be cleaned up."
"Do you want to go to such trouble?" Wu Shudan touched his chin, "Just pull out the fuse, right?"
"It was buried very long and very deep. All the soil on top had to be pulled away."
Hei Lu'er took A'Piao's outstretched hand, pulled her up, sighed, and said, "It's easy to say outside, but inside the palace, we need to ask His Highness to come forward, and we must get His Highness's consent."
"I'll go tell you." Ah Piao nodded, "Let's see if His Highness is awake first."
His Highness never dreamed that she would have a good sleep, and when she woke up, before she woke up, Hei Lu'er and A Piao would take her to the east wall of the palace to look at rare things.
Ever since Dawu Shudan led a few guards to find the secret passage, the street has been sealed and no one is allowed to pass.
Although Yiqing Prefecture is now under siege, the people's interest in watching the excitement has weakened at all. They all want to know the reason why this street is tightly surrounded. Unfortunately, they couldn't see anything. The guards responsible for maintaining security were too tall.
"What is this?" His Highness blinked and looked at the secret passage that was dug out. "Is this the... passage they plan to use to transport me away?"
"That's impossible." Wu Shudan jumped down directly and showed it to His Highness, "How can it be possible to transport His Highness away when most of his body is outside, right?"
"Then this is..." After seeing the fuse displayed by Wu Shu Dan, His Highness's face suddenly sank. "He is really courageous. However, there is a question, how did they not do it?" Did they dig this out when they alerted us? How did they bury the gunpowder and fuse since they couldn't walk upright?"
"I know this." Ishibu stood up, walked to His Highness, and explained, "Your Highness may not remember, but it has been seven or eight years since this happened, and it rained heavily in Yiqing Prefecture at that time. , it was even bigger than the one at the end of last year. The entire palace was surrounded by water, which almost flooded the palace. Fortunately, it did not last long and stopped soon. This also saved the palace. Wait until After the rain stopped, the late king..." He paused, "The late king found someone to repair the drainage canals in the entire city. If I remember correctly, this was one of them. And the person in charge of the repair project at that time was Quan Quan. Yan Qingmu.”
"So, if he wanted to do something, it would be very easy, right?"
"That's right." Ishibu nodded, turned around and pointed at the door they just came out of, "Wanyan Qingmu suggested sealing this place."
"What's the reason?"
"Then I don't remember much. Anyway, the late king has already agreed."
"So that's what it is." His Highness nodded, "You mean to dig this section out completely and clean it up, right?"
"yes!"
"Then do it." His Highness shrugged, "There should be no one living around here. You can do whatever you want, and I will pay all the expenses."
