If Dongchang is said to be second in his ability to interrogate prisoners, then no one in the world dares to be said to be first.

After a while, the factory guard came out and reported that the housekeeper was willing to cooperate in finding someone.

Du Wenlin returned to the hall. The butler, with blood streaming from the corners of his mouth, was dejected and was being held up by two factory guards.

"Remember, where are they?"

"They're underground in the back."

"Take us there!"

There is a huge round dining table in the middle of the first room at the west end of the backyard, with a thick red wool carpet spread under the dining table.

The butler pointed under the dining table.

The table was moved away and the carpet was lifted, revealing a square wooden board underneath.

The wooden board was uncovered, revealing a three-foot-square hole.

Inside the cave entrance is a row of wooden ladders going downwards.

"How big is the hole inside?" Meng Gang asked the housekeeper.

"Very big." The butler replied honestly.

"Is there any other exit?"

"According to the master, in order to prevent accidents, there is an exit. I don't know where the specific exit is."

The officers have already found torches.

"I'll go down first, and you and the brothers will follow." Meng Gang said.

"I'll go down first." Du Wenlin pulled out his dagger and entered the cave entrance first.

Meng Gang handed over the torch, but was rejected.

He felt that his ability to see in the dark was not bad.

There was no light in the cave, but Du Wenlin could still vaguely see the situation a few feet ahead.

The ladder was very long. As he went down, he concentrated his eyesight and hearing to guard against sneak attacks.

Someone followed behind with a torch.

In the midst of nervousness, I finally finished walking the ladder.

When my feet landed on the ground, I felt a lot more at ease.

I looked around and found nothing unusual.

Meng Gang and several factory guards also walked down holding torches.

Except for the scope of the fire, the rest of the place was dark, so dark that it made people panic.

Meng Gang whistled, and the officials behind him filed in holding torches.

Du Wenlin walked in front, eyes wide open, looking around.

More and more people came down, and the torches illuminated the area near the cave entrance.

But the darkness ahead remains the same.

Everyone held torches and slowly searched forward. They found that there were many houses with black wooden doors built around the cave along the cave wall.

There is a huge open space in the middle.

The open space is covered with soft sand.

Du Wenlin stepped on the sand and suddenly felt an ominous feeling in his heart.

The scene of the man in yellow emerging from the mud appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help but shudder.

He stopped suddenly:

"Everyone, watch your step!"

Unfortunately, it's too late.

In the middle and around the team, the sand suddenly exploded, and dark yellow figures flew out from the ground, holding daggers in their hands, stabbing everyone like lightning.

The tragedy of the past has happened again, and the brutal killing has begun.

Du Wenlin's premonition was correct, but it was too late. The man in yellow had already pierced the team like lightning.

In an instant, horrified howls and the sound of blood spurting from the throat rang out from the team.

This is a trap. They have been prepared for it for a long time. They ambush the man in yellow and want to kill everyone!

Without enough time to take care of the people around him, Du Wenlin stabbed the spinning yellow shadow with his dagger.

The man in yellow is indeed very fast, so fast that people can't even see him clearly.

But there are people faster than them.

Du Wenlin succeeded with one blow, and a yellow figure had its throat cut with a dagger and fell to the ground.

Du Wenlin did not stop. He knew that if he stayed for a moment, more of his companions would die.

Under the firelight, he looked like a brown ghost, spinning and dancing with the figure of the man in yellow.

Those who are good at swimming often drown in the water, and those who are good at riding often fall from their horses.

The man in yellow has been trained since childhood to seal his throat with a knife, but unfortunately he met his nemesis today.

They couldn't clearly see the brown figure that was faster than lightning. Whenever the brown lightning struck their side, they had no time to resist it and their throat was instantly sealed.

The men in yellow fell to the ground one by one, with blood spurting out from their Adam's apple like those whose throats they had cut.

Attacks and killings start in an instant and disappear in an instant.

The killing stopped in a moment, and the whole place was filled with disgusting blood.

Du Wenlin stood there and scanned the battlefield, his body trembling slightly.

This kind of killing is bloodier and more cruel than the killing in the Grand Canyon.

This cruelty made him feel terrible from the bottom of his heart.

Most of the more than twenty people who came down lost their lives, those who fell will never get up again, and the rest are trembling.

The men in yellow were all wiped out, leaving six corpses behind.

Except for one corpse whose abdomen was slashed with a knife, the other five had their throats sealed with a knife, all of which were the work of Du Wenlin.

Hearing the sound of fighting below, Magistrate Lu brought people down again. When they saw the scene, they were stunned and stunned.

This dark place has become a Shura battlefield, with corpses everywhere, it is simply a hell on earth!

Two of the eight factory guards who came down were killed. Meng Gang, Zhang Qiang and other five people were all safe and sound.

Less than half of the more than 20 guardsmen remained.

"Luzhi County, you go out immediately and ask Wang Baihu to bring dozens of people down." Meng Gang shouted.

Magistrate Lu hurriedly climbed up the wooden ladder again.

"Let everyone take a rest and wait for them to come down before searching further." Du Wenlin said to Meng Gang.

Meng Gang nodded, looking at the corpses and discarded torches all over the ground with a stern look on his face.

The space here is so big that even Du Wenlin's eyesight cannot penetrate the darkness in front of it.

Dozens of officers and soldiers have come down, each holding a torch, and the space is instantly filled with light.

After searching the entire underground space, no one else was found.

Didn't even find the exit.

Du Wenlin asked someone to bring the housekeeper down.

The housekeeper didn't show any surprise when he saw the corpses on the ground.

Du Wenlin stared into his eyes:

"Did you already know about the ambush here?"

The butler nodded.

"Are you also a Red Seal Christian?"

"Yes, I know now that there is no use in hiding it." The butler answered simply, because he knew that he could not withstand the torture.

Rather than accept torture, it is better to get rid of it as soon as possible.

"How did you know that something unexpected would happen today and ambush these people in advance?"

"I didn't get the news until you arrived. These people just came here a few days ago and have been living here."

"Only six of them came in total?"

"I really don't know the exact number of people. It's the master who has contact with them and no one else is allowed to inquire about them."

Meng Gang next to him was so angry that his teeth were itching, and the hand holding the knife had turned white:

"Where have your master and the others gone?"

The butler's wrinkled face was hesitant at this time. He raised his head and looked around, but did not answer.

"Hurry up! I can't guarantee that you can survive, but I can guarantee that you will not live a life worse than death." Meng Gang's voice was as cold as ice.

The housekeeper seemed to have made up his mind and walked forward.

He came to an inconspicuous place on the left wall, pushed a brick hard with both hands, and the brick was slowly pushed in.

Then he moved another three feet and pushed another brick. At this time, the wall that looked unusually neat suddenly opened slowly inward, revealing a square doorway.

It was pitch dark inside the door.

He pointed his finger and said nothing.

Wang Baihu waved his hand, and several soldiers entered the cave entrance holding torches in one hand and shields in the other.

Suddenly there was a clanking sound, and some flying knives, darts, and iron caltrops came over one after another. Two of the soldiers holding shields fell instantly, and the rest exited the door.

Du Wenlin took a shield, held a dagger, looked back and said:

"I'll go in first, everyone wait a moment."

Everyone is worried about him, but they have all seen his skills. Who else besides him has the ability to take the lead?

Du Wenlin rushed in like a whirlwind, the sound of hidden weapons hitting the shield suddenly rose, and then there was a burst of screams.

Seeing that the opportunity was almost there, Meng Gang took the lead and went in.

The originally dark space was now illuminated by torches.

There were dozens of Jianghu people inside, armed with all kinds of weapons, fighting desperately with the intruders.

The constant influx of soldiers overcrowded the already small space, making soldiers accustomed to group fighting feel like a fish in water.

If several soldiers besieged a martial arts master, that master would have almost no chance of winning in such a space.

What frightened these people the most was that Du Wenlin's assassination was like a ghost. He was wounded by the dagger before the other party could see his figure clearly.

Monks, laymen, and Taoists come from all over the world. They didn't even know each other before yesterday. Who would be willing to fight for someone they don't know well?

So they fought on their own, each seeking to protect themselves, and were completely caught up in the melee.

It didn't take long, and nearly half of the group of believers had been lost.

"Everyone, stop!" shouted, and the believers put away their weapons and stepped aside.

An old man in brocade clothes slowly walked out of the darkness, it was Mr. Ren.

He walked to the field and said to the believers:

"That's it for today. We can no longer make fearless sacrifices. Everyone, put down your weapons and wait for your Majesty to do your bidding."

The believers were terrified as they watched their accomplices fall to each other's swords one by one. If the battle continued, they would all be trapped here.

Everyone threw down their weapons, and the officers and soldiers swarmed up, tied them up, and escorted them out.

When he came to the field outside, Du Wenlin looked at the corpses of the men in yellow and found that their bones were so soft that they could even be bent.

The special physical features make people stunned.

Such signs may be caused by the living environment, or acquired through tempering with drugs.

"They are the legendary 'Desert Zerg'." Du Wenlin said to Meng Gang.

Everyone searched around again and found no one, so they also withdrew.

The government officials were left to collect the corpses in the cave.

After returning to the county government and imprisoning less than twenty remaining believers, Meng Gang ordered the factory guards to temporarily live in the guest house in the backyard of the county government.

Then Xiu Shu reported what happened during this period to the governor, Lord Wang.

"Mr. Meng, when will the interrogation begin?" Magistrate Lu seemed to be more enthusiastic about this matter.

"Today's battle has just ended. There are many things that need to be dealt with, and I'm afraid I won't be able to spare time for interrogation. Let's talk about it tomorrow," Meng Gang replied.

Magistrate Lu seemed relieved.

In the evening, Magistrate Lu specially invited the chefs from the "Yanyangchun Restaurant" in the city to come to the Yamen canteen and cook a lot of big dishes, just to reward these brave men who had passed through the gate of hell in the morning.

"Shaoxing Nuerhong" pulled a carriage over, and Magistrate Lu personally stood next to him and offered a toast:

"Thank you for your hard work, let's get drunk tonight."

As a result, everyone drank until they were drunk, eating all kinds of meat and vegetables.

The banquet didn't end until the second watch.

Everyone helped each other back to their residence in the backyard, and soon there was a loud snoring sound.

In the middle of the backyard of the county government office, there are five stone houses, which are the jails of the county government office.

The believers captured in the morning are being held in prison.
