Yan Zhuo and Mu Yunfeng entered the secret passage, and it was pitch black in front, back, left and right.
Yan Zhuo tentatively went down the stairs, layer upon layer, and walked straight for dozens of steps before entering the flat brick path. Behind him, Mu Yunfeng's eyes were shining. He had excellent eyesight and could see even in the dark.
Clear this secret passage.
"Brother Yan, is Liu Winery really the property of our Qingfeng Mingyue Building? Have you seen the waiter just now?"
"What?" Yan Zhuo asked.
"This secret passage looks eerie. There are no lights and it's pitch black. Have you been here before, Brother Yan?"
"To be honest, this is my first time here too." Yan Zhuo smiled, "Not to mention it's really scary. This guy Qingfeng didn't even arrange an oil lamp in here."
"Brother Yan, you, the owner of Qingfeng Mingyue Building, are too careless." Mu Yunfeng said sarcastically, "Then do you know where this secret passage leads to?"
Yan Zhuo smiled awkwardly: "I don't know about this either. The road is at your feet. You'll know when you get to the end."
Mu Yunfeng had no choice but to follow Yan Zhuo and continue walking forward.
After walking about three hundred steps, stairs leading upward appeared in front of Yan and Mu.
"We're here," Mu Yunfeng said.
Yan Zhuo nodded: "We're finally here."
The two climbed up the stone staircase and saw a large stone slab blocking their eyes.
"Xiao Mu, you have good eyesight. Are there any institutions around here?" Yan Zhuo said.
Mu Yunfeng moved forward and carefully groped around the stone slab: "Brother Yan, there is no mechanism here. It should be opened from the outside. Let's try knocking on the stone slab?"
Yan Zhuo was embarrassed. As the owner of Qingfeng Mingyue Building, he couldn't even figure out the secret passage of his own house. This was really a joke.
He knocked on the slate. Although the slate was thick and heavy, Yan Zhuo's fingers were filled with internal force, and every knock was crisp and clear.
Two banging sounds were heard, but there was no reaction from behind the stone slab.
"Could it be that the gatekeeper deserted?" Mu Yunfeng asked.
Yan Zhuo scratched his temples: "It should be so, let's wait for a while."
Yan and Mu had no other choice but to sit on the stone steps, falling into an awkward but helpless silence.
The secret passage was dark and the stone steps were cold. The two of them sat, surrounded by silence.
"Xiao Mu, I heard that you were promoted to deputy commander?" Yan Zhuo broke the silence.
"Yeah, yes. Yan Xuanji wants to use me to control the imperial army, but I don't know anything about this officialdom, and most of the soldiers and guards under me don't listen to me."
"Who is the commander?" Yan Zhuo asked again.
"The commander of the Forbidden Army is Lu Daoyuan. I don't know much about this person. Xiaoyu said that he is from Zhao Hanguo, and he used to be an internal guard."
"Inner guard? Someone from Zhao Hanguo?" Yan Zhuo frowned, "He was also promoted by Yan Xuanji?"
Mu Yunfeng nodded and said, "That's right."
"Yan Xuanji is very thoughtful. By the way, Xiao Mu, have you ever heard of the Yama Hall and the Yama Society in Jiangdu?"
"No, I have been in the Forbidden Palace and don't know much about things outside the palace." Mu Yunfeng turned to Yan Zhuo, "Brother Yan, did your trip to quell the Japanese go well this time?"
"Fortunately, the problem is not big. What's wrong, Xiao Mu, you seem to have something on your mind." Yan Zhuo faintly noticed the change in Mu Yunfeng's tone.
Mu Yunfeng turned his head away again and said, "Brother Yan, I feel that Yan Xuanji is not very good."
Yan Zhuo was stunned, and just as he was about to ask, a scream came from behind the stone slab.
Screams, a man's screams, rapid and sharp.
Yan Zhuo and Mu Yunfeng were startled when they heard the sound. They didn't care whether the gatekeeper behind the stone slab was on an errand. They summoned their inner strength and punched the stone slab.
The punch fell, the board cracked, and the stone chips scattered.
Yan and Mu emerged from the secret passage and saw a swordsman in green wielding a ring-headed sword, slashing at a person's chest. The sword flashed sharply, and with just a flash, it broke through the man's chest, and another scream came out.
.
Yan Zhuo and Mu Yunfeng didn't know whether the man in Tsing Yi was an enemy or a friend, and they didn't know how to react for a moment. However, when the man in Tsing Yi saw Yan and Mu, he swung his sword around his arm and struck at their hearts.
.
When Yan and Mu saw the swordsman in green attacking them, they dodged the sword from left to right, and then flew up with a kick at the same time.
Both feet shot out, like pillars holding up the sky, and kicked the green-robed swordsman away with just one blow.
Yan and Mu flew out and saw more than a hundred swordsmen in green fighting with a group of civilians in the open space.
This group of Tsing Yi swordsmen are all wearing Tsing Yi and holding ring-shou swords. Every move is very well-organized, and they are skilled in offensive and defensive coordination. They are obviously well-trained.
As for that group of commoners, there were a large number of them, and their weapons were mixed, including horizontal knives, barrier knives, mo knives, long spears, double spears, and short stabs. The offense and defense also fought independently. Although there were a few masters, but during the siege,
It was difficult for him to support himself with one arm, and there were many casualties.
"Brother Yan, what should I do?" Mu Yunfeng asked.
"Kill Qingyi!"
After Yan Zhuo said that, he flew into the battle formation and fought with the group of swordsmen in green clothes.
Just when Yan Zhuo landed, a shout suddenly came from the crowd: "Is it Brother Yan?"
Yan Zhuo looked around and saw a young man in purple clothes who was surrounded by a group of swordsmen in green clothes. It was Luo Tao whom he had not seen for a long time.
"Brother Luo, you are well!"
Yan Zhuo summoned up his great energy and dressed in black clothes like clouds.
"Brothers from Qingfeng Mingyue Building, follow the order of the building owner and follow me to kill."
The group of civilians were stunned. Although they had never seen the owner of Qingfeng Mingyue Tower, when they heard that the owner had arrived, they all became energetic and brandished their swords to attack the Qing Yi swordsman.
When the group of swordsmen in green clothes heard that the person coming was the owner of Qingfeng Mingyue Building, they all surrounded Yan Zhuo, wanting to cut off Yan Zhuo's head and return it for reward.
Yan Zhuo looked at the swordsman in green who was approaching him, his face full of disdain. He did not hesitate, and without waiting for the swordsman in green to make a move, he rushed into the enemy's formation with a single glance.
A swordsman slashed at Yan Zhuo's left ribs with his sword. Yan Zhuo dodged the blow and turned his palm into a sword, hitting the man's head. The man's skull was instantly shattered and his eyes were shattered.
Another person slashed at Yan Zhuo's lower back. Yan Zhuo turned sideways to avoid the attack, and kicked out fiercely, hitting the sea of people. The man immediately spurted blood from his mouth and flew away upside down.
Another person's sword directly hit his face. Yan Zhuo bent down to avoid it, walked around behind the person, wrapped his arms around him, and used the move "uprooting the weeping willow".
There was only a loud "bang" sound, and the man's head was completely stuffed into the cavity.
Three people were killed in three consecutive moves, and they were still empty-handed. When the group of swordsmen in green saw this, their eyes were full of horror, and they did not dare to take a step closer to Yan Zhuo.
But Yan Zhuo had no intention of stopping at all. He mobilized his internal energy, and the strong internal energy attacked the group of swordsmen in blue like a violent storm.
Within the reach of internal force - when encountering a knife, the knife will be broken.
——Meet the hand and break the hand.
——Meet a leg, break the leg.
In the blink of an eye, seven or eight Tsing Yi swordsmen fell to the ground.
Green green clothes, sad wailing.
The green-robed swordsmen who fell to the ground were like bamboo leaves falling in midsummer, wailing that God was unfair to them.
"Withdraw!" The leaders of the group of Tsing Yi swordsmen saw that there was a tough fight, and they were not willing to fight, so they withdrew one after another.
Seeing that the swordsman in green had withdrawn, Yan Zhuo helped up the injured brother beside him and comforted him a few words. The leader of the stronghold also came to say a few words. On the side, Luo Tao and others also leaned towards Yan Mu.
"Brother Yan, long time no see." Luo Tao said, looking at Foying behind him, Tai'a, Fang Yingying, and Bai Buchou all raised their hands.
"Long time no see." Yan and Mu returned the favor, "Brother Luo, can you tell me about Bai Yan?"
Luo Tao looked at Bai Buchou beside him and said, "When we came to Jiangdu this time, we originally wanted to rescue Brother Bai's wife so that Brother Bai could get rid of the shackles of the inner guards, but we didn't think of Bai Yan.
We were taken away by Lu Daoyuan. We didn't want to trouble you at first, but there was really no other way. Brother Bai didn't want to tell that secret."
Yan Zhuo nodded and asked, "Do you have any clues now?"
Luo Tao said: "We have a little clue. We found that Lu Daoyuan went to Qingyuan Lane yesterday, and there were many swordsmen in Qingyi in that alley. I guess Bai Yan should be locked up in Qingyuan Lane."
"The Swordsmen in Tsing Yi? Are these the Swordsmen in Tsing Yi today?" Yan Zhuo asked.
"Well, that's right." Luo Tao responded.
"Then these green-robed swordsmen are here for you?"
"Probably not." Luo Tao said, "We just went to the ruined temple to bring Brother Bai and Xiao Fang over. This group of people was ahead of us, and their target should not be us."
"Then what is their goal?" Yan Zhuo was confused and couldn't figure it out for a moment. Have they already found out about Qingfeng Mingyue Tower? Are they going to attack this small sect?
