"Shh..." When he came to the side of the dry well, Zhao Yu carefully shushed first, and then said to Xu Zun, "Don't worry! Ash has gone down and left a mark."
Xu Zun leaned forward and looked at the deep well as dark as ink, then turned to Huo Anu and ordered:
"Anu, you and Hou Zhen stay here and be careful to hide your whereabouts."
"grown ups……"
Huo Anu was reluctant, but then he thought about it, it was precisely because Xu Zun trusted him that he allowed himself to stay up there.
"The space down there is small, so it's hard to open your iron umbrella!"
Xu Zun saw what she meant and reminded her in a low voice.
Huo Anu no longer hesitated and immediately pulled into the rope with Hou Zhen.
Zhao Yu and A Ni took the lead in climbing down the rope. Several other guards held the rope in turn and followed. The last one was Xu Zun.
These people all had Qinggong skills and could go down the rope without any effort and without making any sound.
Xu Zun is also considered an elite member of the police force, so climbing a rope is no problem.
In a short time, Xu Zun had climbed six or seven meters down. As the strength of the rope gradually became lighter, it meant that Zhao Yu and others had reached the bottom.
However, just when Xu Zun was about to go down, he suddenly heard the sound of fighting coming from somewhere at the bottom of the well.
"No..." Zhao Yu secretly yelled, and immediately rushed to follow the sound...
Xu Zun was frightened, so he loosened his wrist and slipped from the rope.
Because it had just rained, the bottom of the well was filled with wet mud. Xu Zun didn't know the depth, so he stumbled when he fell on it, and he was about to fall down.
As a result, Ani, with quick eyesight and quick hands, hugged Xu Zun in her arms, and a beautiful woman came to save the hero.
"My lord, be careful."
Ani helped Xu Zun upright, but she couldn't say anything, and then she heard the sound of fighting getting more intense somewhere at the bottom of the well.
It seems that Zhao Yu and others have already made moves with the people inside...
Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding...
The sound of weapons clashing was extremely clear under the deep ancient well.
Looking through the sound, I saw a hole in the wall of the ancient well. There was a faint light coming from inside the hole, and the figures under the light were flickering.
"Mother Xiong!" Suddenly, Zhao Yu yelled loudly from inside, "Catch him alive, don't let him die!"
At this moment, Li Yun and other guards had also rushed in, and the sound of fighting suddenly escalated.
A Ni carried the sword and entered with intention, but she was worried that Xu Zun would be wrong and did not dare to move.
"Ani!" Xu Zun ordered, "Let's go in too!"
After receiving the order, Ani lowered her head and got into the hole, with Xu Zun following closely behind.
Inside is a dilapidated and damp corridor.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the two of them entered, they saw Ashuzai lying in the corner of the corridor holding his shoulders, and blood was pouring out from the seam of his hands covering his shoulders...
"Axiuzai..." Ani called out.
Unexpectedly, at the same moment, the light deep in the corridor suddenly went out!
"Damn! What happened?" Zhao Yu shouted, "Fire sickle, fire sickle, hurry up..."
Click, click...
As the fire sickle burned, light flashed inside again.
"Where is the person? Quick... find him quickly..."
Hearing that something had happened inside, Ani immediately took a step back and protected Xu Zun again.
However, after waiting for a long time, no one came out.
The sound of fighting also stopped abruptly.
After a while, Zhao Yu lowered his head and came out to report to Xu Zun dejectedly: "Sir, the villain did something bad and was run away by that person!"
What!?
Xu Zun first squatted down and checked Ashuzai's injuries. After seeing that he was fine, he entered along the corridor.
But I saw an iron door deep in the corridor, and inside the iron door was a secret room that had obviously been repaired.
The secret room is divided into two rooms, the inner and outer rooms. The outside is an office and study room, and the inside is a bedroom.
At this moment, blood was dripping on the floor of the study room, and a man dressed as an official from the Ministry of Industry was seen lying in a pool of blood, lifeless.
Xu Zun recognized at a glance that this person was Shi Chun, a general of the Ministry of Water Resources!
"This..." Xu Zun was even more confused and asked quickly, "What is going on? Who was that person just now?"
"Yes..." Zhao Yu lowered his head like a child who made a mistake and said, "It's Cao Ding's housekeeper. This guy is so powerful. No wonder even the Eastern Divine Catcher was almost killed by him..."
"Damn!" Xu Zun cursed, "Where are the people!?"
"Originally, we had the upper hand," Zhao Yu said, "but he had already been stabbed several times by us, but unexpectedly, he actually knocked out the oil lamp and disappeared after the light was turned on..."
After hearing this, Ani immediately rushed into the bedroom, but saw that one side of the bedroom wall was open, which was clearly a secret door.
At this moment, Li Yun was standing inside the secret door with a knife in hand, frowning as he looked at the scene inside.
Obviously, the housekeeper escaped from here.
When Xu Zun entered the bedroom, he felt a gust of cool breeze and instinctively felt that there was something special behind the secret door.
Sure enough, when he approached the secret door and looked down, he was deeply surprised!
But behind the secret door was a bottomless ravine. I held a torch and shone down, and I saw that the ravine was all made of large bluestones. Although I could only see a small part of it with the light, I could already feel it.
The majesty of this deep ravine!
Oh My God!
The ravine is about two meters wide and bottomless, a veritable abyss.
The damp and cold wind blew from below, making Xu Zun shiver and his heart tremble.
"Huh? Isn't that right?" Ani looked up and down and asked curiously, "There is no road here at all. Where are the people?"
"He..." At this time, Li Yun gritted his teeth and said bitterly, "He jumped!"
What!!?
Everyone was surprised.
"Yes," Li Yun said affirmatively, "I saw it, he did jump!"
"No...that's wrong!" Ani immediately shook her head, "This doesn't make sense. There is a deep trench behind the secret door, so what's the point of building this secret door?"
Everyone was talking about it, while Xu Zun stared at the abyss under the ravine in a daze.
Before, he only learned from Chen Taiji that Xuanmiao City was the sixth-level ancient capital, and there were ancient city ruins beneath the capital.
But I never imagined that it would be so huge!
Such a ravine is like an abyss!
"Come on, come on... give in, give in..." At this time, Zhao Yu picked up a stone from somewhere and immediately threw it into the ravine.
Everyone listened carefully, and a few seconds later, a faint thud came from below.
There is water!
Everyone soon realized that this might be an ancient water channel.
"Oh... Sir..." Ashuzai stumbled into the bedroom, covering his shoulders, and said to Xu Zun, "He is incompetent in his position and was discovered by them!"
"Axiuzai," Xu Zun then remembered what happened and asked hurriedly, "What happened just now?"
"I saw Shi Chun descending into the dry well and not coming up for a long time, so I and Mr. Zhao split up. Mr. Zhao went to report the news, and I followed him down into the well." As Xiuzai recounted, "After I followed in, I heard what was inside
If someone is talking, he eavesdrops outside.
"I heard that one of the two people inside was Shi Chun, and the other was Cao Ding's housekeeper.
"I knew that the matter was very important, so I didn't dare to move. But I never expected that the two of them would have a dispute. After Shi Chun hit the sword, he suddenly broke through the door and exposed me, so I started fighting with the housekeeper...
…
"I didn't expect that the butler was very skilled in martial arts and was no match for his humble position, so I was stabbed by him. Fortunately, Mr. Zhao rushed over at this time, and what just happened happened!"
"Dispute..." Xu Zun asked hurriedly, "Why did they have a dispute and have to fight with their lives?"
