"Why did my sister-in-law bring so much food when she knew Luo Pinzheng had brought it for us?"

Qin Anmin widened his eyes in surprise as he watched Su Qinghe take out so many things from her medium-sized bag.

Su Qinghe smiled sheepishly, "My husband at home was worried and forced it on me, now it comes in handy!"

"Bring me the kettle, I'll pour you some." She stretched out her hand towards Qin Anmin.

Qin Anmin rubbed her hands embarrassedly and asked the follower guarding outside the tent to pass her a kettle.

"One or two bites will do."

Su Qinghe didn't follow her instructions and just poured one third of it over.

"Don't be polite given our relationship. We have a lot of spring water along the way. I will fill it up tomorrow."

Since Su Qinghe said so, Qin Anmin didn't act pretentiously. He tilted his head back and gulped down a few big gulps.

There were mountain springs along the way, so she didn't try to save water. She could just fill her tank again after drinking one and walking for a while.

But who knew that he was so unlucky that he stopped after drinking before encountering the next spring.

The noise outside continued, and from time to time a few complaints could be heard.

The two chatted and laughed in the tent, then lay down after eating. They rested for about half an hour before they heard Luo Pinzheng calling for food outside.

Su Qinghe followed the crowd and took Qin Anmin to get the things back.

Although they had already eaten and she had food in her space, she still had to stockpile some more in her bag in front of Qin Anmin.

At night, the howling of wolves could occasionally be heard in the mountains, but because there were so many people and there were also soldiers from the palace who had participated in the martial arts competition, no one was very scared and the night was peaceful.

The following journey was extremely torturous and boring. Su Qinghe and Qin Anmin felt okay, but Luo Pinzheng himself felt a little overwhelmed.

The group walked and stopped, and finally arrived at their destination on the afternoon of the third day.

"Damn it, we're finally here! I've never suffered this much in my life!"

Seeing the big iron gate in front of them, some people simply sat down on the ground without caring about their image.

As Su Qinghe sighed, she became more alert in her heart.

She was extremely careful along the way, but apart from the pot of poisoned broth, no other accidents happened.

Now that we have arrived at our destination, we know that there must be other motives behind this trip since Luo Pinzheng poisoned everyone.

Then, her next goal must be implemented in this place.

Su Qinghe looked around inconspicuously.

What catches the eye is a large iron gate, which is embedded in the mountain wall like a modern tunnel, and its interior is the dug passage that Luo Pinzheng mentioned.

"Lord Luo."

Seeing Luo Pinzheng bringing a large group of people over, the guard at the door hurriedly bowed and saluted.

Two rows of soldiers holding spears stood neatly at the gate, their faces solemn.

Luo Pinzheng walked forward and talked to the leader for a few words. The leader glanced at everyone coldly, nodded, and waved behind him.

"Open the door."

Two people immediately came out of the team to lift the bolt on the door, which was also made of iron.

After the bolt was unbolted, the remaining people in the two rows immediately stood on both sides of the door in tacit understanding. Su Qinghe counted and found that there were exactly ten people on each side of the two doors.

"One, two, three, push!"

The person who was in the lead just now started shouting slogans, and with her shout of "Get up", the twenty people lying on the door began to push the door hard.

As the iron gate opened, a muffled "boom boom" sound was suddenly heard on the field, and a lot of sand and soil was shaken off the top of the mountain.

The group of people following Luo Pinzheng all looked shocked and stared at the iron gate without blinking.

"Is this iron door so heavy? It takes 20 people to push it together!"

"It seems that Lord Luo did not cut corners this time. This should be the strongest door in my Dawu!"

"Being able to see this gate with my own eyes is worth my hard work these past two days!"

As the door opened wider, everyone gradually saw how thick the iron door was. It was as thick as a baby's arm. No wonder it took so many people to push it together.

Su Qinghe was also a little surprised when she saw this door.

From the time she went to find craftsmen to make various parts, she knew that the casting technology in this world was much more advanced than she had imagined.

But I didn't expect that such a thick iron door could be made and even successfully embedded in the mountain wall.

The muffled sound continued, the door was already half open, and the scene behind the door was revealed to everyone.

Inside was a dark and deep passage that was only wide enough for two carriages to pass side by side. Pine oil torches were stuck on the walls on both sides, and the fire was swaying left and right with the wind caused by the movement of the door.

Everyone stood outside in a daze, waiting for the door to open completely. Luo Pinzheng turned around with a meaningful smile on his face.

"Will Luo show you around?"

When everyone heard that they could go in, they nodded happily and followed Luo Pinzheng closely, afraid of being a step late.

Su Qinghe followed the crowd into the door while observing the surroundings inconspicuously.

After entering the gate, the flames on both walls flickered, stretching everyone's shadows very long.

The people who were so tired that they could not even straighten their backs just now, became energetic once they entered the tunnel. They all looked around and praised the place with their mouths full of praise.

"Lord Luo, now the two sides are connected, but this mountain is too difficult to climb, and the carriage can't go up?" someone asked.

Luo Pin was leading the way in front, explaining slowly.

"There is no road now, but once the memorial is submitted and His Majesty confirms it, a road will be built. By then, a road will be built not only on the Tianhe County side, but also on the other side of Ziyunling."

Hearing this, someone frowned. "Wouldn't it be easier to get the enemy troops here?"

When she asked this, someone immediately started to tease her. "How come Master Liu is not smart enough in this business?"

"How wide do you think the road in this mountain can be made? Even if we build it, it can only accommodate two carriages running side by side at most."

"If the enemy attacks, we won't be afraid of them if they have few people, but will they rush in all at once if they have many people?"

Her words immediately caused everyone to laugh, and the head of the Liu family blushed and was very angry, but he couldn't refute.

Su Qinghe walked at the end of the team and listened to their conversation quietly, while looking puzzledly at the neatly arranged small holes on the stone walls on both sides.

There are long mountain ranges on both sides, so these holes cannot be very deep.

After thinking for a while, Su Qinghe asked Qin Anmin beside her, "Sister Qin, are these small holes hidden weapons?

Seeing Qin Anmin nod, Su Qinghe was once again amazed at the craftsmanship of this world.

No longer exploring these small holes, Su Qinghe shifted his gaze to other things on the wall.

This tunnel is quite long. Su Qinghe felt that it took him about five or six minutes to reach the end.

The other entrance of the tunnel had no door, but there were also soldiers guarding there.

Just then, Su Qinghe heard Qin Anmin muttering softly.

"Strange, why don't I see any familiar-looking soldiers?"
