Kaifeng Cat and Mouse Detective Manuscript

The moment Zhan Zhao jumped down, the upper stone platform merged automatically, blocking the entrance of the cave with a loud bang, and suddenly there was no light in the entire underground except for the torch in Bai Yutang's hand.Zhan Zhao walked to Bai Yutang's side and carefully observed the surroundings. The two of them still didn't know what was going on inside. According to experience, there might be ambushes in half of the places.

The underground is a long arched passage. Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao's foothold happens to be at the top of one side, and the other side extends infinitely towards the opposite side. Zhan Zhao's eyesight is excellent at night, and he can almost see the end.

With the help of the faint firelight, it can be seen that the passageway is painted with the same black paint and red murals as above. The woman in the painting is still sitting and standing, with a knife and a sword. The only thing that is the same is that their eyes are all the same. Looking at the middle, that is, the middle of the passage, it seems to be observing someone coming. If you are a timid person, you may be frightened and faint when you fall.

Bai Yutang was shocked when he saw these murals, "Mao'er, isn't this a cult site?"

As the two walked around, the woman on the wall was gradually replaced by a tiger, which was exactly the same as the tiger on the stone platform, but the difference was that it had been beheaded, its wings were folded under its feet, and its body was covered with knife cuts.

"Did you hear anything?"

After Zhan Zhao stopped, he found that the surroundings were filled with the sound of splashing, it was very small, except for the bottom of his feet, there was such a sound, a bit like water flow.

"water?"

Bai Yutang wasn't sure, so he walked up to the wall and put his left ear on it to listen carefully.

"Could this place be under the Jiangyin River?" After a while, Bai Yutang stood up straight. There was no other river besides the Jiangyin River around Tongtianmeng. If the sound was the sound of water, it could only be from this place.

"Jiangyinhe... It's possible based on the length of this passage," Zhan Zhao said while crossing his arms, "As for the direction, it could lead directly to the Tongtian League."

"Then this place is most likely created by Yu Yufei. The Tongtianmeng will not be so incompetent that they didn't even find out that someone was digging a tunnel under the door of the house. To put it this way, the most likely reason for Qi Xinxie to let us come here is to let us discover this secret." , he knows that you will never tolerate a cult, if you notify Lord Bao, you can just use the hand of the court to eradicate the Tongtian League and sit back and watch the tigers fight."

"After Yu Yufei's funeral is over, let's go back and see if there is any news from Mr. Gongsun." Zhan Zhao agreed with him. "Go ahead and see how to get out. It takes too much time here, and Yu Shaotian found it inappropriate."

Bai Yutang nodded, and took the lead to walk in front. Zhanzhao Juque was slightly unsheathed in his hand, sharp and dazzling under the light of the fire.

The two looked around as they walked, until they were intercepted by a vertical wall at least three people high, the entire passage came to an end, and the surrounding murals stopped abruptly.

"How much iron does it take to melt this wall?" Bai Yutang was amazed, at first glance he saw the object in front of him as iron, and knocked on it with Zhanlu casually, and the sound echoed throughout the passage.

Zhan Zhao raised his hand to look for a foothold to climb up to. It is impossible to push through the hole at the back, so he can only find a way from here. Unfortunately, the wall is so smooth that it feels like ice, without even a crack , rushing to the top with light work, only to fall down.

"Look, cat," Bai Yutang exclaimed towards the wall.

"What?" Zhan Zhao also leaned over and stared at Bai Yutang. Bai Yutang moved the torch a little forward, closer to the wall. From his position, he could actually see the scene behind the iron wall.

"So that's how it is," Bai Yutang said, "This wall is just a cover-up. It looks indestructible. It looks like iron, but it's just the reflection of the surrounding passages. If someone comes down empty-handed or doesn't look carefully, they will naturally think it's an iron wall. , Cat, see if you can split it with a giant que."

Zhan Zhao nodded, pulled out the giant gate, told Bai Yutang to step back, and slashed upwards forcefully, the wall broke open from it, and a trace spread out, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang hurriedly retreated, the trace became bigger and bigger, and finally It was torn apart, and the entire wall fell to pieces.

Bai Yutang bent down to pick up a fragment, and observed it under the firelight.

"Cat, look at this thing." The fragment was diamond-shaped all around, and it cut your hands slightly when it was poked on it. It was not completely transparent, and there were many impurities wrapped in it.

"Liu Li?" Zhan Zhao took it, thinking of the glass vases he saw in the palace before, which were similar to this one, "Do you still remember the vase given to Mr. Bao by the government last time when you went to the palace? This is very similar."

"Glass craft is difficult and fragile, how can there be so many in this place?"

Bai Yutang was puzzled. He had an impression of the vase given by the government at that time. Master Bao took it back and put it in the hall. Who knew that when he was packing the tea set, he missed it and was broken by the maid. Bai Yutang Zhan Zhao was also there at the time, helping He also cut his finger while cleaning up.

Zhan Zhao shook his head, "According to this technique, it should have been burned for a long time, at least something from the Zhenzong period."

"But the Tongtian League was not established in the early days of the official family?" Bai Yutang asked.

"So, is Tongtianmeng founded because of this place, or was it discovered by Yu Yufei after it was founded? Or, Yu Yufei didn't know this place at all? Qi Xinxie didn't lure us in because he wanted us to see these things."

Zhan Zhao is also surprised that Tongtianmeng will definitely not be as it appears on the surface, just started as an escort agency.

The two continued to move forward. The wall that had just been broken was like a barrier. After stepping through it, the surroundings turned from black to gray, and the murals disappeared, similar to the inner walls of a house.

After walking straight along the passage for dozens of meters, he came across a corner, and there was a faint light coming from behind the corner. The torch was almost burned out, so Bai Yutang immediately extinguished it and put it by the wall.

After turning a small corner, there is a round house in front of you, which is similar to the stone room you saw before. The only difference is that the temperature inside this room is extremely low, the surroundings are covered with frost, and the top is inlaid with large and small beads. , the emitted light illuminates the entire room, and two crystal coffins are stacked in the middle.

The two looked at each other, walked slowly to the back of the coffin, Zhan Zhao apologized to the coffin, pushed the coffin board on the left with a palm, a gust of frost came over the face, and after a while, he finally saw the true content inside the coffin.

Inside lay a woman who was only in her 20s from the appearance alone, as if she was asleep.

"Guess who this is?" Bai Yutang looked at the woman's face and felt a little familiar.

"Mouth and face shape are very similar to Yu Shaotian." Zhan Zhaosu has been doing autopsies with Mr. Gongsun, and it is easy to find the coincidence point.

"The territory of the Tongtian League is very similar to Yu Shaotian." Bai Yutang walked around the coffin and observed, "This crystal coffin is at least 20 years old, so this person has only one identity."

"Yu Yufei's dead wife".Zhan Zhao received it.

"So, this Yu Yufei is a bit perverted," Bai Yutang pondered, "After she committed suicide, Yu Yufei not only refused to bury her, but also put her in this ghostly place, so she is not afraid of people looking for him at night."

"Don't talk nonsense," Zhan Zhao kidnapped Bai Yutang with his arm, stepped forward and stood beside the coffin to look inside.

"She was hanged," Zhan Zhao said to bother Mrs. Yu's body, and moved her chin with his fingers, revealing the brown-black mark on her neck.
