After I traveled through the book, I was spoiled by five little villains
Chapter 577: Move Forward, Keep Moving Forward
But since his mother had already spoken, he certainly couldn't reveal this intention in front of her.
Taking them out is obviously a better idea than leaving them in the City Lord's Mansion.
Yan Yuanan opened his mouth and repeated what Qin Yaoguang had said in Tibetan.
However, after adding a few words, the meaning changed completely: "If you are willing to leave, then come with us and find a way out of the City Lord's Mansion. If you don't want to, I won't force you. If you stay, you will die."
He said it was all voluntary, but his words were actually threatening.
Thinking of the brutal Pabala, who would dare to stay?
At that moment, Su Bai walked in the front holding a fire starter, Fang Ting was the last one to come, and the woman from Fengqi Tower walked at the end. The group walked towards the depths of the magnificent lobby.
The gorgeous Suzhou embroidery screen was overturned to the ground, revealing a stone staircase underneath that was wide enough for two people to walk side by side at the same time.
Looking further inside, there is a slight reflection of the water waves.
The rest is darkness.
Yan Yuanan paused slightly, a little hesitant.
"Don't be afraid."
Qin Yaoguang said softly: "I believe in the information from Su Diya and the Prince."
There is an underground passage under the city lord's mansion, which even Pabala doesn't know.
Juyan City is a transportation fortress. If any foreign tribe attacks, it will be the first to bear the brunt.
In addition, the people here are tough. The locals can ride horses as soon as they can walk, and boys can go to the battlefield with swords and guns when they grow up. They are not as easy to tame as the people in the Central Plains.
Because of this, it is unknown which local official secretly left an extremely hidden secret passage when building the government office.
Just in case something happens, at least the whole family has a chance to escape.
I don’t know if he used it or not, but it has come in handy for Qin Yaoguang now.
How could Pabala know the secrets of a mansion built by the Han people?
This passage was vaguely mentioned in the intelligence collected by Sudiya, but it was not clear and it was unknown whether it was true or false.
The specific location was clearly marked on the map that Yan Changqing found from Bater. It was unknown where King Ruyang collected the information from.
However, considering Prince Ruyang's ambition and his layout and operations in the Northwest region for more than ten years, it is not surprising that he knew about it.
Before knowing the exact location of the tunnel, Qin Yaoguang's plan was to take advantage of the chaos in the City Lord's Mansion, seize one of the doors by force, and rush out.
Yan Changqing's fighting power is the biggest guarantee for this plan.
When they saw the Fengqi Tower tunnel, they discussed briefly and changed their plan to escape through the tunnel.
This is the way with the least casualties.
And you can save these poor women at the same time.
As the fire spreads, the entire Fengqi Building will be completely burned down, and the fire scene will become the best cover for the tunnel entrance.
No one would know that they escaped from here.
In fact, the safest way is to let someone go in first and confirm the exit.
However, the situation was urgent and it was too late.
We can only send a few female guards to explore the way first.
If the tunnel is blocked, Qin Yaoguang plans to hide inside and wait for news from Yan Changqing.
The only concern is whether Pabala knows the existence of this tunnel and whether the tunnel is safe.
However, when everyone arrived at Fengqi Tower and opened the entrance to the tunnel, they were completely relieved.
Obviously, Pabala didn't know.
This tunnel has not been used for a long time.
He simply thought that the building was beautiful and surrounded by water, making it suitable for imprisoning abducted women.
A group of people walked inside.
The tunnel had fallen into disrepair after years of neglect and, being under the water, was filled with the smell of decay and dampness.
The further we went in, the dimmer the light became, but fortunately we could breathe without any problem.
I don’t know who the skilled craftsmen were who built the tunnel, but the construction method was extremely ingenious.
The entire tunnel was built with fine bluestone slabs. The overall height was slightly higher than the water surface. From the ceiling, about an inch below, there was a hollow brick space every ten feet.
Fresh, damp and cold air mixed with blood and fire blew in from the hollow space.
Su Bai took the lead, walking nimbly in front to explore the way.
The ground was covered with dust and cobwebs, with occasional traces of water.
The group moved forward quickly in the dim light of the fire.
No one spoke, and no one complained.
Even the most delicate woman in Fengqi Tower gritted her teeth and moved forward.
This is an escape, not a picnic.
Soon, the female guard who went down to explore the way first came back and said, "General Su, the road behind is not easy to walk on, but it is passable. We are already clearing the road."
Qin Yaoguang nodded: "Let's go."
She glanced back, unable to make out everyone's expressions in the dim light, but the glimmer in everyone's eyes revealed determination.
No one is left behind.
The further you go, the harder it becomes.
Walk along the section of road that is slightly higher than the water surface and turn completely underground.
The pitch-black darkness and the enclosed environment made people feel tense.
Fang Ting, who was left behind, took out a tinder from his bosom and lit it, and suggested in a loud voice: "Your Highness, have someone count the number of tinders."
If it were just them, with their keen sense of touch acquired through years of training, they would be able to find this tunnel without using a fire stick.
But not right now.
I don’t know how long the road ahead is, so I have to use the tinder sparingly to avoid panicking when there is no fire at all.
"it is good."
Qing Bai took on the task and quickly counted the fire starters and various items carried by the female guards.
A fire stick is a must-have when traveling in the martial arts world, and almost every female guard has one.
All in all, as long as the road ahead is smooth and we use it economically, there will be no problem in getting out of this passage.
In addition, there were hooks, ropes, drugs, hidden weapons, elixirs and other items. Some women in Fengqi Tower carried cakes, water bags and other items with them. Yan Shouzhuo also took two bottles of wine when he left the banquet.
After counting the supplies, everyone felt much more at ease.
After walking for a while, they arrived at the place where the female guard reported the road obstacle.
Because of the age, the supporting beams have collapsed, and the path cleared is only wide enough for a person to duck and crawl through.
Fortunately, there is no water around, otherwise the entire tunnel would be unusable.
Being deep underground, there is a sense of being isolated from the world.
They didn't know where they were, let alone where above them was, or what was happening in the City Lord's Mansion that they had left behind.
Fortunately, I am surrounded by familiar and loyal faces.
Supporting Qin Yaoguang to grope forward in the difficult environment.
In the darkness, she inevitably thought of Yan Changqing.
Thinking of the brief meeting just now, his restrained yet burning gaze, and his turning around without hesitation.
Is he okay now?
Compared to the nearly silent tunnel, the City Lord's Mansion has completely turned into a hell on earth.
The guests and artists who came to attend the pre-banquet would never have imagined that they just came to congratulate but would end up being killed by the sword.
Everywhere you look, there is blood.
Pabala led a team of elite soldiers and forced Yan Changqing and others, who were wearing auspicious robes, into a corner under the city wall.
He stroked the bowstring in his hand and smiled coldly: "Princess, you still have time to surrender immediately."
