Now in the final analysis, the situation is still unclear. Even if Hongye really doesn't know martial arts, it doesn't mean he doesn't have any accomplices. It is precisely because of these that Liang He can be considered cautious.
Liang He took out the flint from the grotto on the wall of the passage. There was still a little heat on it. It seemed that someone had used it not long ago. Liang He couldn't help but sigh, he was indeed late again.
After groping their way to the candlestick on the wall, the two found that the original candle had been burned out, and there seemed to be a thick layer of ash on the candlestick.
Liang He didn't think much and took out the spare candle from the cave nearby. He didn't know if it had been a while since he came in, but Liang He felt that his eyes seemed to have gradually adapted to the darkness, just like it was not that difficult to find a candle.
It was inconvenient to light the candle in his hand, so Liang He blew on the candlestick to blow away the dust that had accumulated on the candlestick, and then put the spare candle in it.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but when he blew away the dust just now, Liang He felt that he seemed to smell a slightly sweet aroma.
Liang He stopped and sniffed carefully, but the smell before was no longer there. It seemed that he smelled something else for a while.
Since nothing was found, Liang He naturally would not continue to struggle here. After lighting the candle, Liang He began to look deeper into the passage.
The front was completely dark, with only the area illuminated by Liang He's candle showing some light. Liang He had no intention of continuing to track him.
On the one hand, it is because there is no need for him, the Crown Prince, to do this kind of thing. As for this other aspect, it was natural that Liang He was not at ease because Yan Ling was here alone.
As for taking Yan Ling to check it out, it became even more impossible. No one understands this passage, and it is unknown what they will encounter. In this case, why should Yan Ling take this risk
"How's it going underground?" Yan Ling asked uncontrollably when he saw Liang He didn't respond for a long time.
Liang He shouted upwards: "I'm going up now. I'll talk about anything later."
Hearing that Liang He was coming up, Yan Ling felt like he was really relieved.
Although Yan Ling and Liang He were in the room just now, the commotion was not insignificant. It is precisely because of this that when Liang He came up, two more people immediately appeared in the room, the same two people who had allowed Hongye to escape before.
"You two chase along this passage, be careful." Liang He sat on a chair nearby, arranging the somewhat messy clothes he had just made, and said to the two people.
"Yes." The two men simply took the lead and entered the passage just now without saying anything else.
In fact, what Yan Ling didn't know was that those two people seemed calm on the surface. In fact, there is another kind of anxiety in my heart, and of course it is not because I am afraid of something in the passage.
To be honest, these people are all old people who have followed Liang He for many years. They have never seen any danger. They would not take such a small tunnel in their eyes.
However, what they really didn't understand was Liang He's attitude when he spoke just now. Liang He has always been clear about rewards and punishments, and this time they themselves are aware of their mistakes.
First, he couldn't even watch the film of a helpless little girl, and let her sneak out from under his nose in a brazen manner. When I continued to search for clues, I found nothing.
It would be fine if that person really disappeared out of thin air, but they couldn't find this passage after all, but Liang He came out and slapped him in the face.
According to past experience, even if Liang He didn't punish them severely, the reprimand would still be unavoidable.
But today Liang He acted as if nothing had happened and just asked them to continue tracking the suspect.
Is this the so-called meritorious deeds? The two men in black under Liang He thought this way, and it suddenly became clear how serious they were about this matter.
"What did you find?" Yan Ling asked as he handed his handkerchief to Liang He.
However, as soon as the handkerchief was handed out, Yan Ling was stunned. Because of the previous wound on his hand, the handkerchief he has now, which Liang He used to wrap his fingers before, still has some blood stains on it.
Thinking of Liang He's previous mysophobia, Yan Ling felt that he had done something stupid, and suddenly he was not so good.
However, his hand has been stretched out and the handkerchief has been handed over. Even if Yan Ling feels that something is wrong, can he still take it back
The answer is of course it can be taken back, but Yan Ling's hand was still not able to take it back after all. When Yan Ling had just made that plan, Liang He had already taken the handkerchief from Yan Ling's hand and wiped the sweat from his forehead without caring.
"I didn't find anything. This place may be used frequently. The candlesticks are all clean. There is no dust at all. It's the first candlestick near the passage."
In the middle of Liang He's words, he saw Yan Ling's slightly surprised look. Liang He was stunned for a moment, and then he also reacted.
Liang He smiled casually and said, "I'm not one of those young ladies. How could I be so squeamish? Even if I feel uncomfortable, it will never be against you."
Yan Ling felt a little awkward when he heard this, and then felt a little bit of joy in his heart that was not easy to detect. After all, there is one person to whom everything is special.
"Hong Ye should have escaped from here, no problem, but the strange thing is, how could there be such a passage in Bai Yushi's mansion?" Yan Ling was a little embarrassed, so he started talking about business to change the topic.
When he mentioned this, Liang He also frowned and said in a deep voice: "Everything in this passage is almost ready, so it is absolutely impossible to build this passage in a short time."
"If that's the case, should we ask Bai Yushi? After all, this is his territory." Yan Ling pressed his eyebrows and said helplessly.
Liang He nodded, then shook his head, and then said in a deep voice: "You must ask clearly, but based on my experience, Bai Yushi should be like us and don't know about this passage. Otherwise if"
"That's not necessarily true. Maybe Bai Yushi is an accomplice. As the head of the family, there is such a big news. Bai Yushi has no reason to say that he doesn't know about it." Yan Ling seemed to still mind before Bai Yushi decided that she was Regarding the murderer, there was still some disagreement when he said this.
