The black-bellied peasant girl is reborn, and her weird relatives are mad

There was a thumping sound from the corner of the courtyard wall, and something heavy fell down.

"Who?" Fuzi shouted loudly.

"Me." It was Tang Si's voice. He trotted over and bowed to Jiang Muxia, saying, "Miss Jiang, the master asked me to tell you that the goddess has arrived in the county, and she is accompanied by ten maids, among whom is the Tianqing you mentioned. We can move now."

"Okay. There shouldn't be too many people moving out tonight. Fuzi will stay behind to look after the house." She changed into light clothes and followed Tang Si.

The night darkened and the moonlight was brighter than last night. Tang Si took her to the yard opposite the Chaoguan.

Ji Feng stood on the branch, flapping its wings and yelling "Ahhh" at her.

Tang Zhongbai, wearing night clothes, was sitting under a tree, wiping the sword in his hand with a cloth. The shiny sword was shining coldly, illuminating Tang Zhongbai's stern face.

"If you don't go back with them, will they become suspicious?" Jiang Muxia sat opposite him and asked him with a worried look on her face.

Tonight's operation is of vital importance. If they make a surprise attack, our mission will be ruined.

"It's okay. They don't know I'm here." He sheathed the sword, looked serious, and said, "Let's go. The others will wait here. If anything unexpected happens, the whistling sound of the wind will be the signal."

"Master." Tang San hurriedly stood up to stop him, "No, it's too dangerous, what if..."

"Nothing will happen, and everything will be accomplished tonight."

He waved his hand, the wind fell on his shoulders, and he walked out with big strides.

Jiang Muxia followed him, walking firmly and elegantly. The two of them jumped over the courtyard wall and headed straight for the side door of the hall.

As expected, there was a copper lock on the side door. Tang Zhongbai took out a thin thread from his pocket and inserted it into the keyhole. In a moment, he twisted it with his hand and the door lock opened. He pushed the door open, and the two of them flashed into the hall.

Jiang Muxia blew up the fire stick. The blue brick walls around her looked completely different from the gray walls outside. This place was completely separated from the front hall, like a long passage.

She quickly walked around here. Entering here was like entering a closed space. There was no window except the door.

But, Tianqing stayed here for so long yesterday, it is impossible that he just stayed in this passage. Where would the secret room be?

There were oil lamps embedded around the walls. Jiang Muxia took a special look and found that they were full of lamp oil. She lit one and the room became much clearer.

Tang Zhongbai stopped and reached out to stop her, lowering his voice and saying, "Be careful, there is a trap."

This place reminded him of the underground dark room in the kitchen of the Mei family's villa. The two were very similar.

The Goddess of Tianji is indeed the same as Lin Xiao. Could it be that the letter with the feather was given to him by the goddess?

Could the person who poisoned Lin Xiao be the Goddess of Tianji?

That time, one of the brothers lost a leg. This time, there were only two of them, and he couldn't let anything happen to her.

He tore the corner of his clothes, found a stick from the corner, and made a simple torch.

He pointed at the roof beams and Jifeng understood, flapping his wings and flying up. As he landed, dust fell from the beams. Jifeng stood up, called out twice to the people below, and then lay still.

Tang Zhongbai held a torch and checked the wall to see if there were any plum blossoms or other patterns.

"Muxia, if you find any pattern on the blue bricks, stay away from them. They are poisonous."

Jiang Muxia had already turned the lamp embedded in the wall. The lamp was really embedded in the wall. No matter how she turned it, it didn't move at all. Just when she was discouraged, she felt her eyes light up when she heard his reminder. She focused her attention on the blue bricks, knocking on the wall with her hands while staring at each blue brick carefully.

However, the result was contrary to their expectations. After looking for half an hour, their eyes were almost dazzled, but they did not find any blue bricks with patterns, nor any loose blue bricks, and they were sure that the walls were solid.

They even searched the floor, but found nothing.

Jiang Muxia sighed and said gloomily, "What should I do? I can't find anything."

Tang Zhongbai walked up to her holding a torch and said in a deep voice: "Don't be discouraged, you will definitely find it."

He walked up to the door and raised the torch to look around. The frames of the two black painted wooden doors were embedded in the wall.

Its door frame seemed to be different from that of other houses. It was a thick cylinder with a hole dug at the top and bottom to fit the door in.

But why did they go to so much trouble to make a small side door so complicated?

Tang Zhongbai pushed and pulled the two doors back and forth. The doors were light and smooth, and there was no noise when pushing and pulling.

"Is there something strange about the door?"

"I don't know yet." Tang Zhongbai frowned, stopped what he was doing, and stared at the door hinge thoughtfully.

At this time, footsteps were heard from the backyard, and there were voices of people talking, "Tian Qing asked us to patrol the front and back doors of the front hall every hour. She really knows how to find work for us. What kind of fool would run to the place where the gods are worshipped in the middle of the night to make trouble? They can't be scared to death."

"Okay, stop complaining and just do your own thing."

As the sound got closer, the two people in the side door closed the door, locked it from the inside, and turned off all the lights.

"Hey, I remember that the side door was locked with a copper lock when I came here last time. How come the copper lock is gone?" The footsteps stopped outside the door, and the maid asked another maid in surprise.

"I didn't notice it, maybe you saw it wrongly?"

"Impossible." Light came into the room through the crack in the door. The two of them stood against the wall, not daring to make any sound.

The door was pushed twice, and the maid said in surprise: "That's strange, did someone go in?"

"Forget it, there's nothing here. You'd have to be crazy to go in there. It's so hot. Let's go. Make the porridge as soon as possible. I'm going to take a shower."

The sound of one person pulling another person became farther and farther away, and the footsteps gradually could not be heard.

The two people in the room let out a breath, a layer of sweat appeared on their foreheads. After confirming that there was no one outside, Jiang Muxia rushed to the door, opened it, and breathed in big gulps of air. It was like a hot brick kiln in here, the heat and tension made people suffocate.

Fortunately, Tang Zhongbai casually stuffed the copper lock into his arms, and fortunately one of the maids on patrol was careless, otherwise all the efforts tonight would have been wasted.

"Hurry up, they will be back in an hour." Jiang Muxia took a breath and went back into the house to light the oil lamp near the door.

Tang Zhongbai turned his gaze back to the cylindrical door frame. He first pulled the two doors on the left and right, but there was no movement in the room.

He stared at the upper and lower connection points of the two door hinges, hesitated for a moment, and then reached his hand into the gap on the upper right side.

The gap was so small that even his little finger could only fit in the tip. After groping around the arc, he suddenly paused and a look of delight appeared on his face.

He felt a small protrusion, and he had to admire the person who designed the mechanism. He actually thought of setting up a mechanism in such a place. Aren't they afraid of touching it when the door is pushed back and forth?

He shouted to Jiang Muxia, "Found it," and pressed it hard.

Then the rumbling sound of the mechanism chain was heard, and a hole appeared on the wall opposite the gate, large enough for a person to pass through.

A cold sound came out from the cave, and the cool air penetrated into the body of Tang Zhongbai who was standing at the door, making him shiver and feel refreshed all over.
