Chapter 132 The Dark Tunnel

"Useless things, get out of here!" The more Jiang Wu saw this, the more anger he felt in his heart, and he couldn't help shouting again.

The man in black held his chest and stumbled down.

Although Jiang Wu was angry, he didn't dare to waste any time, so he hurriedly called the steward over, "Go and arrange a few people to keep an eye on King Yu and Princess Yu, and report any changes immediately. If you can't do it well, I'll see you later!"

"Yes." The steward replied hurriedly and tremblingly.

After giving the order, Jiang Wu put his hands behind his back and walked around the house anxiously.

At this moment, he just thought of the most important question, what exactly did Mo Shanghua do, and why he was able to wound and capture the two masters he sent.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help calling the man in black back in again, and questioned him carefully.

The man in black hurriedly told the truth one by one.

"What?" Jiang Wu was stunned by what the man in black said, his eyes full of shock.

What Yan Beicheng has been like in Yuzhou for so many years, even the dignitaries of the imperial city know, how could it be possible that there are so many masters by his side all of a sudden? Could it be that he has been pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger all these years?

To be able to hold back from urination and say now, what a strong endurance it must be, no, he must report this matter immediately, and all the current matters, he also has to think about this matter carefully again.

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, he quickly got up and called trusted people, and sent them out in two batches, wrote the matter of Yan Beicheng pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger on the secret report, and ordered them to send it urgently.

After doing this, Jiang Wu was still a little uneasy, feeling that something would happen. He opened the dark room again, walked around to one wall of the dark room, tapped left and right for a while, took out a bluestone brick from it, took out the wooden box inside, opened it to check, and found that dozens of books inside were still intact. Only then did I breathe a sigh of relief in my heart, and put the things back.

...

at night

Mo Shanghua wore black night clothes. In the dark night, no matter how she moved, she could hide in the darkness very well. In addition to her light figure, even the night guards would not be aware of it.

Relying on her extraordinary martial arts, she easily touched Jiang Wu's study.

At that time, it was Zishi, and there was no one in the study, and the room was very dark.

Mo Shanghua is a martial artist, even in the dark, she can still see at night and close the door of the study. Then she fetched a celadon teacup, took off the tea cover, and put the teacup upside down on the handle of the wooden door, so that if anyone came, she would be able to find out in time.

After doing all this, Mo Shanghua quickly rummaged through the house.

She didn't rummage through boxes and cabinets, but focused on the wall and the items on the table, obviously not for some superficial things.

Not long after, she fixed her gaze on an inkstone on the desk.

The night vision can only see some basic things, and the details of such small objects are still unclear. Mo Shanghua simply opened a fire folder and picked it up for a closer look.

This inkstone is nothing if you look closely, its shape is quite satisfactory, its carving is exquisite and unique, there is nothing special about it. However, after turning the inkstone over, one can see that there is a thumb-sized, fingernail-sized bulge under the supposedly flat inkstone.

Mo Shanghua's eyes froze, and he hurriedly took the fire folder to the tabletop where he picked up the inkstone just now to look at it, but he saw that the tabletop was flat and there was no abnormality, even if he put the inkstone on it, the inkstone fell smoothly on the tabletop. There is no sense of unevenness caused by the bulge.

Mo Shanghua squatted down with her hands, couldn't help lowering her eyes to think carefully, and then her eyes flickered slightly, as if thinking of something, she directly pressed the inkstone and tried to turn around.

After discovering that the inkstone could be rotated, Gu Jing's pupils lighted up slightly, and hurriedly stepped up time to continue rotating according to the law.

Fortunately, the pattern was easy to find, and she found it without much effort. With the third rotation of the inkstone, the sandalwood bookshelf placed behind the desk made a soft "click", and slowly moved away to the sides, revealing a dark corridor.

Mo Shanghua stared into the corridor, thought for a while, and then walked in.

Contrary to what she had imagined, there was no trick in the tunnel, and she easily entered the dark room.

This dark room was isolated from the outside world, so she didn't have to worry too much about being discovered, so she simply took the fire pocket and went to light the candlestick next to it.

Before Huozhezi could touch the wick, a sharp palm wind suddenly struck from her side, knocking Huoziezi away in her hand.

Mo Shanghua's heart skipped a beat, she didn't have time to think about it, she quickly stepped back a few steps, her plain hand quickly touched the dagger at her waist, and before she could pull it out, a black silhouette of a human figure swept across as far as her eyes could see. Come over, the palm wind hit her shoulder blades.

Mo Shanghua's eyes were as sharp as a sharp edge, he did not dodge or dodge, instead he drew out the dagger in his hand and used it to block, but the man also played cards unreasonably, without the slightest stagnation in his hand, avoiding the edge of the dagger , a palm split on her wrist.

There was a pain in her wrist, and the dagger was powerless to fall off. The man in black took the dagger with his other hand instantly, and before Mo Shanghua could dodge, the dagger was already lying on her delicate neck.

The sharp edge of killing intent was close to her neck, Mo Shanghua's whole body froze, her brain was running fast, and a plan came to her mind, and she hurriedly raised her voice, "Who are you, how dare you break into the sheriff's mansion at night?"

While speaking, she silently pinched a few silver needles between her slender and white fingers, and a cold light flickered in her eyes.

But when the man heard his voice, he was stunned for a moment, then sneered, put the dagger back, turned around and lit the candlestick, "It's a coincidence."

The candlelight illuminated the dark room that was originally invisible, and the man in the cloak was impressively reflected in front of him. The only part of his jaw that was exposed was sharp-edged, his thin lips were slightly pursed, but his eyes were fixed on Mo Shanghua.

Mo Shanghua was also taken aback, she knew that the person in front of her was Yan Beicheng, but now was not the time to reveal it. The most important thing right now is the purpose of Yan Beicheng's coming here. If the two of them have the same purpose, it is easy to say, but if there is a conflict of interest...

But in just a few breaths of time, Mo Shanghua's mind turned all these thoughts.

"what is your purpose?"

Yan Beicheng's eyes swept across her slightly vigilant eyes, and a dark color flickered across her deep phoenix eyes, and then without hesitation, he took out the wooden box he had taken out and threw it over, "I and Your purpose is the same. This thing has the same effect no matter who it is in your or my hands, since you are here, it will save me the trouble of carrying things, so take it."
