Chapter 524 I have watched the tunnel battle eight times
Meng Lan was actually relieved that Jian Yu was so tolerant and open-minded.
He knew that the two of them had some conflicts, but he thought it was just a small friction. Unexpectedly, Si Suliu was not even willing to maintain the surface politeness, which was a bit strange.
Fortunately, Jian Yu was indeed an envoy from a great country and did not care about the casualties.
The two walked out of Si Suliu's residence side by side. As soon as they reached the door, they suddenly heard a loud shout from inside. They were stunned for a moment, then immediately turned around and rushed back. The guards behind them also rushed in.
After all, they were quite far away. When Jian Yu entered, he only heard one sound.
"Disappeared, disappeared again."
The word "again" means that this is not the first time. Last time, it was said that the assassin disappeared out of thin air after the assassination.
Jian Yu suddenly remembered Bai Yue's words, pangolin.
Meng Lan hurriedly went to see how Si Suliu was doing, but Jian Yu didn't go in. He was afraid that if he directly angered the person to death, he would not be responsible for it. He felt that since he was here, it was not good.
He crossed his arms and acted like an uncle, so he also checked in the yard.
And he is indeed a little strange.
That big man couldn't just disappear out of thin air. He must have used some kind of cover-up trick to avoid everyone's sight.
Si Suliu was assassinated again and again. Although his personal grudges should have provoked some powerful characters, he was responsible in Meng Lan's territory, so he arranged for people to carpet the yard inch by inch.
Search again.
All blinding methods cannot withstand blanket searches.
Soon, a man shouted: "There is a hole here."
Everyone rushed to see it.
On the grass in the small flower bed, there was a piece of grass, no different from the grass next to it. To the naked eye, there was no difference at all. But when I poked it with a stick, a hole was made.
It turned out to be just a layer of turf covering it. After the turf was uncovered, the hole was so dark that it was hard to tell how deep it was.
But the hole was big enough to accommodate a thin adult, and everyone felt chills all over when they looked at the black hole.
The assassin should be able to come and go freely from here, but this is too incredible. Such a deep hole appeared in the yard. This cannot be dug out overnight, and no one noticed it.
Meng Lan looked at the entrance of the cave and fell into deep thought: "Find someone smaller to go in and take a look."
This is simply like the gate to hell, and it's too narrow. If you crawl in without knowing anything, it's a bit like committing suicide.
Jian Yu said: "It's better to dig it out directly."
The thinnest soldier breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Jian Yu gratefully.
Meng Lan nodded: "dig it out."
With more people and greater strength, the entrance to the cave was soon dug. The hole was dug deeper and deeper, and the hole continued to extend. There was no sound, no light, and not even the wind blowing from inside.
Everyone knew the news quite late. They waited at the inn for Jian Yu to return from visiting his doctor. When it got dark and no one was seen, when they started to get a little anxious, Liang Meng came back first and said that Jian Yu was still there.
I'll be helping Meng Lan dig tunnels in the palace for a while.
Why do we need to dig a tunnel? I haven’t seen you in just half a day, what kind of drama happened again.
So when Liang Meng told the situation inside, everyone immediately became interested. They all said that they heard that Chief Si had been assassinated again, so we really couldn't sit still and we must go and visit. We are all friends.
How can it be that just because you politely refused, we really don’t understand etiquette.
Qiu Wanwan said cheerfully while touching up her makeup: "What did this grandson offend? He didn't die after being assassinated once, but he was attacked a second time. He won't give up until he's killed."
Qin Jiu hugged Captain Xing, looked at Qiu Wanwan with all kinds of charms, and said with envy: "Sister Qiu, you don't need to dress up, you are pretty enough."
Hey, look at herself again. According to Bai Yue, the biggest problem between her and Prince Ning may be age. Although she doesn't quite understand, Prince Ning is only seven or eight years older than her. Isn't this age difference normal?
?But Bai Yue told her firmly.
This matter really can't be rushed. It will take several years anyway. If nothing else, at least she will have to wait until she is eighteen or twenty.
Qin Jiu's understanding is, oh, Prince Ning likes older women.
Prince Ning must like Qiu Wanwan, who has mature charm and charming charm. Compared with her, even if he wears the same clothes, he doesn't have that charm, and he can't imitate her.
Bai Yue didn't know how to further explain to Qin Jiu, so he simply stopped explaining. Time would dilute everything and verify everything. Maybe it was just the little girl's ignorant thoughts that would disappear after a while.
Qiu Wanwan finally finished her makeup and looked in the mirror: "Let's go."
Qiu Wanwan put on peach blossom makeup, intending to use her peach blossom face to contrast Si Suliu's pale face. She was really wicked.
As expected, Meng Lan's palace was brightly lit and people were coming and going. The cave had been dug quite far, but it had not reached the end yet.
"Are you here?" Jian Yu looked at Bai Yue and his party, not surprised at all.
This group of people love to have fun, so how could they not come?
Bai Yue looked at it for a while and said, "How long can we dig like this?"
The hole became more difficult to dig as it was a lot of work and it was dark inside. Meng Lan wanted to ask people to go in and explore the way, but he also didn't want Jian Yu to think that he didn't care about the lives of his men.
Although no danger has been seen inside so far, with such a narrow hole, no matter who enters, it will be a piece of meat waiting to be slaughtered. No matter what danger they encounter, even a mouse in the tunnel can kill you.
There is absolutely no room for fighting back.
Meng Lan sighed: "It may take a while. This person doesn't know his background, but he can actually penetrate the tunnel unknowingly."
He couldn't help but feel a little scared when he thought about it. He was trying to kill Si Suliu. If he was trying to kill him, he might not be able to escape.
Bai Yue looked aside and said, "I have an idea."
Meng Lan's eyes lit up: "Miss, please tell me."
Meng Lan knew all the bad ideas Bai Yue came up with to deal with the death challenge that came with a coffin, and cooperated with them. He felt that the person who could come up with such bad ideas must have a good brain.
Bai Yue said: "I heard from Jian Yu that the covering turf was simply placed on top, and it was broken open by gently poking it with a stick."
"Yes, it's just a cover-up without any real sealing effect."
"That's easy to do." Bai Yue said: "Have someone catch a few mice, put fireworks on their tails, and let them run wildly forward. No matter how many turns and twists there are, they can rush over and push away.
cover."
Rat, listen to me, thank you.
Bai Yue continued: "Then light the thick smoke and stuff it in, and fan it inside. If you block this side, the thick smoke will come out from the other end. Unfortunately, it is night now, so we need to send more people to fight.
Look around with a torch. If it's daytime and you can see thick smoke from a distance, you can find another entrance."
