Destined Marriage of Shang Jun

Chapter 76: Secret way (3)

Views:

By the firelight in Yu Feng's hand, Qi Fenghua saw that this was a passage, which was different from the stone walls of the cellar. The four walls of the passage were all loess, and there was a faint air flow through the passage. Qi Fenghua asked, "This is the tunnel? Where does it lead?"

Shang Jun smiled slightly, and replied mysteriously: "You will know if you see it."

Shang Jun was in high spirits, and under the dim light of the fire, his face was actually a little rosy. Qi Fenghua pouted his lips cooperatively, and replied, "Then I'll wait and watch the show, don't let me down!"

Yu Feng led the way, Shang Jun walked in the middle, and Qi Fenghua was the last. Although the tunnel is dark, it is not difficult to walk. Every time there is a fork in the intersection, you can see a few night pearls the size of a fist, and the soft light illuminates the fork clearly. Even without a torch, you won't get lost. After walking for more than half an hour, Qi Fenghua thought to himself, where does this tunnel lead to? It's so long, and there are still many forks in the middle. Where do those forks lead to

Qi Fenghua was still thinking, Yu Feng finally stopped, and saw that he lightly jumped onto a platform half a person high, and fumbled for a while on the wall, a gap opened in the wall, not big, but already Enough access.

As Yu Feng came out of the narrow gate and pushed aside a few dense vines, Qi Fenghua looked up and saw that it was just an ordinary cave. The cave is small, full of undergrowth and dead branches. The three walked out of the cave, and the dazzling sunlight made people unable to open their eyes. Qi Fenghua squinted his eyes and saw that the cave was at the foot of a mountain, the right side was a dense chaotic forest, and the left side was—

"North Gate?" Qi Fenghua was slightly surprised, and when he looked closely, it was indeed the north gate tower of Tiancheng. He looked at Shang Jun suspiciously, and saw that he was staring at the bright yellow flag flying on the tower in a good mood, with a hint of Ruo Yu at the corner of his mouth. A seemingly innocent smile.

Qi Fenghua frowned and asked inexplicably, "Xiaojun, what are you doing by digging a tunnel to the outside of the city?" As the most prosperous and open place in Cang Yue, it was never particularly difficult to get in and out of the city. Furthermore, with their martial arts, even if the city gate is closed, they can come and go freely, so why bother to build a tunnel

Shang Jun chuckled, turned around and walked back to the cave, and said with a smile, "Look at the other one first, and I'll explain it to you later."

Here again, always like to play tricks and tricks to whet his appetite. Qi Fenghua reluctantly followed behind Shang Jun, got into the tunnel again, and walked in the winding tunnel for another half an hour. Qi Fenghua felt that Shang Jun was walking slower and slower, something was wrong. He lightly embraced his shoulders, and held his wrist to take a thin pulse. It was okay, but he was just a little tired. Qi Fenghua gently persuaded: "Little Jun, you are too tired, can't you come and see me in a few days?"

Shang Jun secretly adjusted his breath and replied with a light smile: "It's okay, just walk slowly."

In this secret passage, he couldn't drag him out. Apart from supporting him, Qi Fenghua was helpless.

Yu Feng looked back at Shang Jun, his tired face was covered with thin sweat, and he had only walked for more than an hour, so he was so tired? It's not like him at all. How bad is his injury? Full of worries, Yu Feng also slowed down.

After walking for a while, the tunnel suddenly became narrow, barely able to pass a person, and the height was not enough, they could only bend slightly to pass. Yu Feng lowered his voice and said, "Master, it's almost here."

Shang Jun nodded slowly, Qi Fenghua could feel the condensed momentum all over Shang Jun at this time, where does the other exit of this tunnel lead

Walking in such a narrow tunnel is indeed a bit hard. Shang Jun's breath was obviously confused. He covered his chest with his hands, panting lightly. What kind of medicine did the little uncle give him? These days, the chest tightness and pain have been reduced a lot, but he is getting tired more and more easily, and his body feels weak. The little uncle explained that he must not exercise gong, but he felt that his internal strength was dissipating little by little. It made him very uneasy.

Fortunately, after only walking for a stick of incense, Yu Feng finally stopped and stood up straight. Yu Feng raised his arm, pushed up against the earth wall, and a circular exit appeared in front of him. Yu Feng jumped lightly and walked out of the tunnel with ease. Just as Shang Jun was about to lift his anger and jump, there was an extra pair of powerful hands around his waist, wrapping him in his arms. Qi Fenghua jumped up lightly, and the two of them also walked out of the narrow tunnel.

Shang Jun smiled gratefully at Qi Fenghua, but he couldn't help but feel a little lost. Is he useless to ask people to take care of him everywhere? If there is no martial arts that has accompanied him for many years and made him proud, he does not know what he should do.

Letting go of Shang Jun's hand, Qi Fenghua was a little curious as to where this was. The place where they are is very strange, like in a beautiful hill, looking across the naturally formed stone cracks, there are colorful flowers and plants outside, rockery rockery, very beautiful.

It looked like a garden, and Qi Fenghua was about to ask what this place was when Yu Feng quickly patted his shoulder and shook his head gently. Qi Fenghua also heard the sound of footsteps approaching, and immediately fell silent, squinting to see, a dozen guards dressed in dark red outfits with stern faces, long swords around their waists, and patrolling on alert, that clothes - Jin Yiwei!

Qi Fenghua's mind was stunned, so to speak, where they are now is the imperial palace!

Qi Fenghua opened his eyes wide and stared at Shang Jun. Shang Jun leaned against the stone wall behind him, his eyebrows were full of smiles, his hand was on his lips, and he looked like he didn't make a fuss, Qi Fenghua was angry.

When Jin Yiwei was far away, Shang Jun walked towards Yu Feng, and Yu Feng got into the tunnel again. Shang Jun glanced deeply at the imperial garden outside the rockery, and Qi Fenghua was slightly startled by the sharp edge in his eyes. Long Chimu is so close at hand, no wonder Xiaojun's heart is surging. Wrapping Shang Jun's waist and hugging him lightly in his arms, Qi Fenghua whispered in his ear: "Little Jun, you will definitely be able to kill the enemy, and for your father Zhaoxue, you will definitely be able to."

Shang Jun lowered his head slightly to hide the wetness in his eyes. This road, he has come to this day, is really hard and tired. His body is tired, his heart is even more tired, he is afraid, he really can't last long!

Leaning against Qi Fenghua's arms, Shang Jun whispered, "Let's go."

In the narrow tunnel, Qi Fenghua could only see Shang Jun's thin back, walking forward persistently and stubbornly, his heart aching faintly.

Speechless all the way, with great difficulty, I finally walked back to the secret room. Shang Jun heaved a sigh of relief, propped up against the stone wall, and panted heavily. Shang Jun laughed at himself, he was really about to become a weak woman, and after walking for a few hours, he was so tired.

Yu Feng brought a bowl of water and said, "Master, sit down for a while and drink some water."

"Okay." After drinking water and sitting for a while, Shang Jun finally calmed down and said with a smile, "Let's go out. After a day of drilling, everyone must be hungry."

When the three of them got out of the tunnel, they realized that the sky was already dark and gray. Shang Jun took a deep breath, the refreshing spring breeze wrapped in the dark fragrance unique to Ji Ji, which made people feel refreshed.

Without the chaotic forest when they came, Yu Feng led them through the path behind the Thorn Ji Cong and into a narrow alley. At the end, Yu Feng opened the hidden stone gate and reached the side hall of the mansion. Entering the hall, Yu Feng closed the stone door, and there was a beautiful bookcase, even if you looked closely, you could not see the clue.

Qi Fenghua looked around this large hall, it looked like an ordinary side hall, but he always felt that there seemed to be secret passages everywhere in this mansion, what did Xiaojun want to do

Shang Jun sat comfortably on the main seat, and his face was much better. After a while, Yu Feng had brought in hot tea and snacks and sat down beside Shang Jun. Qi Fenghua finally couldn't help his curiosity and asked, "You can explain. I'm waiting."

Holding tea in one hand and pastry in the other, Shang Jun gave Yu Feng a wink, Yu Feng understood.

He took out a piece of plain white brocade more than three feet from his sleeve and spread it on the square table next to the main seat. Yu Feng pointed at the brocade and explained, "Master, this is a map of tunnels. There are two tunnels leading to the outside of the city. There are three tunnels, the exit of one is in an old thatched hut outside the south gate, and the other is the one you saw just now, at the foot of the Red Mountain at the north gate. There are three tunnels leading to the imperial city, and the exit of one is in the dry well of the Leng Palace, which is very remote. , there are few people coming and going, the safest way to enter and exit is the secret road, one exit is in the flowers behind the imperial study, and the other is just below the rockery in the imperial garden where you entered and exited just now."

"Very good!" Shang Jun walked away with satisfaction. Yu Feng's work is really reassuring.

"Wait." Qi Fenghua stared at this densely drawn so-called map, dumbfounded. It turned out that they had walked for most of the day just now, but it was only part of this spider web-like tunnel map. Staring at Yu Feng in disbelief, Qi Fenghua said curiously, "You dig such a big tunnel under Tiancheng, wouldn't anyone find it? And it's still in the palace." Qi Fenghua really couldn't understand.

Yu Feng smiled lightly, pointed to the place where the tunnel passed, and explained: "The route to the outside of the city, I chose almost all the places where the poor are concentrated, and they don't pay attention to the sound of the underground. And the places where the tunnels intersect are already It is the property of Misty Mountain Villa. The tunnels leading to the imperial city take the longest time, they are all opened with small chisels, and the places close to the ground and easy to make loud noises are chosen when there is a lot of wind and rain and thunder. When the sky is shaking. For three years, I have been very careful." In the words, it is difficult to hide the pride.

It turned out that Qi Fenghua was convinced. Sitting down beside Shang Jun, holding up the teacup and putting it down, Qi Fenghua propped his chin and asked, "Okay, I admit to being very careful, but what are you doing with such a huge tunnel?"

What's the use? Shang Jun slowly raised the corners of his lips.

"Master." Wei Xi's slightly anxious voice came from outside the door, interrupting what Shang Jun was about to say.

Slowly putting down the teacup in his hand, Shang Jun replied, "Weixi, come in and talk."

After entering the house, Wei Xi immediately replied, "Clan Master Xiao came to look for you three hours ago, and he rushed in after waiting for half an hour without seeing you come out."

Three is here? Seeing Wei Xi's depressed expression, he guessed that San'er must have embarrassed him. Shang Jun smiled and asked, "What about others now?"

With a light cough, Wei Xi replied a little embarrassedly, "It's still in the battle."

Shang Jun was slightly stunned, and said with a smile, "Why didn't you bring him out?"

Wei Xi's expression was also not very good, and he replied slightly annoyed: "This is the first time I went in, I wanted to bring them out, but Clan Master Xiao insisted on entering the Thorn Ji Cong. Without your order, I would not dare to let them out. He went in. They were rushing everywhere in the formation, and I couldn't stop them. My Qimen was not very good at all. When I wanted to find them again, I couldn't find anyone."

There is nothing he can do about San'er's cold temper, let alone Wei Xi. It is estimated that there must be a dispute in the formation, Shang Jun got up and smiled at Qi Fenghua: "Little Master, sit down for a while, I will lead them out."

He was trapped in the formation for more than ten hours, and he did not see Xiaojun in such a hurry to find him! Feeling extremely unbalanced, Qi Fenghua replied unhappily, "It's only three hours, what's the hurry?"

Looking at Qi Fenghua's awkward appearance, he knew that he must have remembered the things of his childhood again. He smiled and shook his head, and Shang Jun turned and left. Yu Feng quickly followed, his face was still not very good, Yu Feng said worriedly: "Master, let me go."

Shang Jun smiled and said: "You explain to the kitchen to prepare dinner, I'll go." San'er has a bad temper, and he was still sleepy in the array for a few hours, for fear that he would become stubborn and annoy Yu Feng again. Furthermore, according to Wei Xi's statement, it is very likely that they broke into the dead door in the profound formation. It was already late, and I was afraid that Yu Feng would not be so easy to find them.

Shang Jun had already said so, Yu Feng had to bow and leave.

Entering the rock formation alone, Shang Jun went straight to the death gate in the formation. Going around a few boulders, Shang Jun finally saw San'er's tall back. Shang Jun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, the organs in the array were not opened, they were just trapped inside.

Approaching Xiao Zongqing, Shang Jun whispered, "San'er."

The gentle voice of Shang Jun came slowly, Xiao Zongqing turned back immediately, only to see Shang Jun in a light blue thin shirt under the cold moonlight looking at him with a smile. He seemed to have been standing there for a long, long time. generally. I haven't seen him for a few days, and he lost weight again. After being trapped in the formation for several hours, his restless heart became calm the moment he saw him.

He took a step forward and wrapped Shang Jun in his arms, tightly. He was angry with him, and he didn't even say a word when he went out. He left as soon as he said it, and there was resentment and anger in his heart, but Xiao Zongqing didn't say a word.

Originally thought that San'er would be furious this time, but he kept silent, which made him a little flustered. Seeing Xiao Zongqing behind him, Liu Guang turned his back in embarrassment. Shang Jun gently broke away from Xiao Zongqing's arms and sighed, "I'll take you out first. Liu Guang, you follow closely."

"Yes." Liu Guang turned around immediately and followed closely.

Under the leadership of Shang Jun, the three people walked out of the rock formation in less than a stick of incense. Liu Guangqin sighed, Young Master Shang's formation was really powerful and well-deserved, they couldn't get out of such a small rock formation after walking all afternoon.

As soon as he got out of the battle, he saw Yu Feng holding a red letterhead in his hand and greeted him. Shang Jun asked, "Yu Feng, what's the matter?"

Handing over the letterhead in his hand, Yu Feng replied, "Your invitation."

Greetings? He hardly appeared in Tiancheng, who would send him a greeting card, and know that he must be in the mansion at this time, could it be the Xiao family? Doubt in his heart, Shang Jun opened the prayer post, saw the content in the prayer post, and his face immediately became solemn.

Seeing that he was in a trance, Xiao Zongqing lightly supported Shang Jun's shoulder and asked, "Jun, what's the matter?"

Handing the red greeting card in his hand to Xiao Zongqing, Shang Jun fell into contemplation.

Xiao Zongqing took the invitation and took a closer look, and his brows became more and more frowning.
