The men rushed into the room and looked around for suspicious objects in the room.

It's just that the items in the room are neat and there is no trace of any outsiders coming in.

The master stepped into the room door with great force. He scanned everything in the room, and finally fixed his gaze on the door leading to the dark pavilion.

"Master, there is no suspicious person." One of his men came to him, bowed respectfully and reported.

He turned his head and stared at the black curtain next to him, then walked over and stopped in front of the curtain. After hesitating for a moment, he opened the curtains and took a look.

Behind the curtain was a window. There was no one here. He slowly raised his head and looked at the ceiling above his head.

With a "boom" sound, a drop of liquid fell on his head. He raised his hand and gently stroked it off, putting his fingers in front of his nose and sniffing.

Those were rock water droplets condensed by the humidity in the cave, not human sweat.

"Master, the food delivery person has arrived." Nu Cen reported.

The man didn't say anything, but suddenly, with lightning speed, he pushed open the window.

This window leads to the corridor outside. If there were really people in this room just now, they must have chosen to escape from this place before they came here.

"Master...Master, I just delivered the food. I...I didn't do anything." The man who delivered the food was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and explained in fear.

"He has been here for more than three years and is someone I can trust." Nucen explained to his master. He was worried that his master would not be at ease, so he said to the men behind him: "Send someone to count all the people here. If there is any suspicion, shoot and kill them if they dare to escape."

In the corridor outside, Shen Haojin mingled with other men wearing masks.

He pretended to be looking for suspicious people, kept his head down, and followed them forward.

Nucen personally took people to check, and ordered the trustworthy people to gather everyone in the hall.

Nu Cen knows how many subordinates there are here. One more, or one less. He also knew exactly what they looked like.

At a fork in the road, Shen Haojin took the opportunity to go another way. He knew that he could follow the fork in front and reach the place where he left the cave.

"Hey, I told you to gather in the hall, where are you going?"

One of the men saw Shen Haojin and reminded him loudly.

Shen Haojin instinctively stopped in place, but did not turn around for a long time. He didn't hear any sound behind him, so he boldly continued walking forward.

"Hey, I'm talking about you, why don't you leave?"

"Me?" Shen Haojin turned around and pointed at himself. "I'm going to help the master call the others and ask them to gather in the hall.

Since no one can miss it, the guards outside must also come. "He made an excuse.

"Wherever you need to call one by one, they will come over on their own after hearing the alarm sound. Even if someone wants to escape, the person guarding the door will stop them. Please follow me to the hall quickly."

Nucen listened to the people outside talking and couldn't help but walked over.

"What's going on?" he asked the man next to him.

"He said he was going to ask others to gather in the lobby. I asked him to come to the lobby with me."

Nu Cen looked at Shen Haojin opposite. The clothes on his body and the mask on his face were the same as those of all his subordinates. You probably couldn't tell anything strange, but the eyes under the mask gave Nu Cen a strange feeling.

"You! Take off the mask from your face." Nu Cen ordered Shen Haojin.

Hearing this, all the bones in Shen Haojin's body became stiff.

At the same time, the subordinates who had been summoned to the hall came here one after another.

This is a fork in the road, and his position is right in the middle. In other words, there are bodyguards here all around him.

Once his identity was exposed by Nu Cen, he would be unable to fly in such a narrow corridor even if he had wings.

"Hurry up." Nucen urged him.

"Yes." Shen Haojin slowly raised his right hand, holding the mask on his face. The left hand hanging on one side clenched his fist subconsciously.

He was ready to risk everything, and in the worst case, he would fight them head-on.

He peeled off the mask on his face bit by bit and swallowed the saliva in his throat nervously.

"Report, the master is calling you, asking you to come over quickly, saying there is no need to look for any more suspicious people."

A man came running from the back gallery and yelled.

"What happened?" After hearing this, Nucen no longer paid attention to the man opposite who was taking the mask. He followed the man eagerly and left.

Shen Haojin quickly put the half-removed mask back on his face. After everyone dispersed, he breathed out relaxedly.

Nu Cen hurried to the previous room. As soon as he arrived at the door of the dark pavilion, he saw the scene inside.

There was a man lying on the floor in the dark room, and food was scattered on the floor.

"Master, what is he?"

The master stood in front of the man who fell on the ground. He stretched out his hand to signal to his men to help the man on the ground to lie down on the bed.

He checked the man's pulse, which was a little weak. It should be caused by not seeing the sun for a long time and taking the special medicine he developed for a long time.

If something unusual happens in this secret room, the alarm in the corridor outside will also sound. The purpose is to notify the people under his command that they can come to rescue immediately if there is a situation.

"Is he the cause of the noise just now? Doesn't it have anything to do with whether there are spies here?" Nu Cen asked cautiously and tentatively.

"Clean up this place and get out." The master ordered.

Nucen squatted on the ground and quickly cleaned up the food on the ground, and then exited the dark pavilion.

On weekdays, except for the people who deliver meals, only the owner can enter here. At this time, the owner was so anxious to let him come over, maybe he just wanted him to clean up the mess on the ground himself.

The owner took out a silver needle from the box and stabbed it accurately into the head of the man lying on the bed. After the man showed signs of waking up, he took out the silver needle.

The man opened his hazy eyes and looked at the man standing beside the bed as much as possible under the soft light. But no matter how he looked at him, he couldn't see his face clearly.

"Are you awake? They didn't take good care of you. Don't worry, I will definitely teach them a lesson on your behalf.

Be hungry. I'll ask them to bring you some delicious food later. "

"You..." The man raised his arm with difficulty, because his body was so weak that his hand kept shaking. He finally grabbed his hand and said quietly: "Bai... Baiyuan?"

After he heard this title, the eyes under the mask became a little colder in an instant.

He turned his head and stared at the man lying on the bed. He could clearly see his handsome and elegant face, but when he saw him, his eyes were always blurry.
