Chapter 477: The Incomprehensible Secret Room

Wang Quan: "You kid, this disguise skill is amazing!"

The yamen runner was so scared when he saw the real Wang Quan appeared that he almost peed himself and knelt on the spot. Wang Quan felt very strange when he saw another person with his face in such a mess, so he took the initiative to tear off his mask.

Wang Quan: "It's interesting. I can't tell you what's wrong with the texture. No wonder you dare to send me away at will. You have this trick.

But you've been fooled. There are no outsiders in this village."

"I feel it. This village is another puzzle they left for me. Can't I tell you what's going on?

Do you have to play this kind of puzzle game?"

Wang Quan: "But you guessed it right. I killed a lot of people in the past two days. I have never fought so hard in my life."

Ye Tingbai: "Besides, the Yulin Army hasn't arrived yet, and they are slower than me. This is very interesting~

Your speed is the fastest, but it's a bit watery."

The Yulin Army, which Wang Quan praised as the fastest cavalry in the imperial capital, was so disappointing. Wang Quan felt embarrassed. After all, it was a boast he made.

Wang Quan: "I will go back and figure it out."

Ye Tingbai and Wang Quan entered the village together. As Wang Quan said, this was a small village with only a dozen households. All the people were hiding in their houses, looking confused, with thin faces and malnutrition. He didn't know what these people wanted to tell him.

Using the same trick again, Ye Tingbai began to scan the village with sonar. Although it was a bit unexpected, he did find a strange underground space without any passages, as if it was a hole that appeared out of thin air.

Generally speaking, if such an underground space is excavated, even if the excavated passage is buried, it will be scanned out due to the soil density problem, but this underground space is not.

It is located more than ten meters underground, right below the village. The soil around the hole is dense, and there is no obvious difference from the surrounding area. There is only one possibility for this situation, that is, this hole was filled later.

That is to say, a huge deep pit was dug here, and it was very deep, at least more than 30 meters. His scanning accuracy can only reach 30 meters, but he still did not see the soil fault.

Ye Tingbai found the county magistrate who had been staying at the entrance of the village.

"How many years of history does this village have?"

County magistrate: "This, I don't know either. I have only been transferred here for less than five years, and I really don't know much about history, but the county annals record that this Ping'an Village has a history of hundreds of years."

"Hundreds of years?"

This result surprised him a little, because he had subconsciously linked this case to the disappearance of the prince. The prince had only been missing for more than ten years, which was too long.

At this time, a group of people rushed over, and the speed was fast enough. These people were the belated Yulin Army. They came a little late, but Ye Tingbai just had some work for them.

[Name: Rudi]

[Position: Centurion of Yulin Army]

[Position bonus: Unknown]

"Greetings to the Royal Envoy, Greetings to Eunuch Wang!"

Wang Quan: "Where have you been? Did you come here in a scattered manner?"

"To reply to your Excellency, we were stopped by the Huben Army on the way. We were trapped for a whole day. This is the fastest speed I can do."

"The Huben Army is lower in status than you. Why can they stop you? What is the matter?"

"The Huben Army sent out 8,000 infantry and 2,000 light cavalry. I dare not move. They said we are suspected of treason and need to ask the emperor for permission before letting us go."

The reason why the Yulin Army rushed with so many people is reasonable, but the fact that they could quickly organize so many people and stop them can only mean that the Huben Army was well prepared.

Wang Quan's face was solemn: "Is His Royal Highness the Southern King also involved? Or am I overthinking?"

Ye Tingbai: "Southern King? How many kings are there?"

Wang Quan looked at Ye Tingbai in confusion. Why would he ask such a stupid question?

"There are only two, the King of the South and the King of the Yan. The King of the South is stationed at the border and is good at martial arts. The Tiger Guards are under his command. I just hope this is a coincidence. The King of the South is not like the King of the Yan, who can be manipulated by His Majesty.

Have you seen the King of the South?"

Ludi: "To reply to your Excellency, no, but we saw the tents of royal standards, and the Tiger Guards seemed to be heading towards the imperial capital."

Ye Tingbai: "The water is a bit deep, it seems that the King of the South went to the imperial capital.

But although you are late, there is still some work for you, come in and dig a pit!"

Ludi: "What did your Excellency say?"

"It means literally, dig this village, dig deeper for me."

A bunch of Yulin soldiers were dumbfounded. They were not ordinary soldiers, but noble cavalry, but they were sent to dig a pit?

And they didn't bring any tools?

Ye Tingbai: "Come in quickly, don't just stand there, if you don't have tools, use your weapons to dig!"

A bunch of people dared to be angry but dared not speak, which was a mistake. Wang Quan's face was so stinky that it seemed like he was going to kill someone. If Ye Tingbai was alone, they would still dare to pretend to obey but secretly disobey, but Wang Quan watched, and everyone worked hard.

After digging down for more than ten meters, Rudi finally couldn't help it.

"Sir, what do you want us to dig in this earthen chamber below?"

Ye Tingbai suddenly found a problem. The attributes of these Yulin soldiers, including herself, were very high. If in the real world, his attributes exceeded ten thousand, he could easily smash a big hole on the ground, which was thousands of times the attributes of a normal person.

But in this game, even if the attributes have reached a terrifying level, they are still not as destructive as he imagined. This feeling is like playing a game. Even if the characters are powerful, they cannot cause damage to buildings.

Their strength is severely limited. This board game does not seem to be real. It may be some kind of mental illusion. He can study it from this perspective.

Ye Tingbai: "Keep digging. Dig down about 20 meters and it will be enough."

All the villagers were taken out of the village by the Yulin Army. He took a look at these people and could not tell what disease they had. Although they were afraid of sunlight, they were not fatal. They just made them feel painful. These people had hideous faces, not because they were monsters, but simply because they were hungry.

Half an hour later, a 30-meter-deep pit was dug out of the village. The space detected by Ye Tingbai finally revealed its true face. This space was very strange. There was no support. It was like someone was moved into the soil and then slowly swallowed the soil from it.

Ye Tingbai thought that he did not have the ability to build a building. How could the soft soil possibly provide support?
