When the guards removed the wardrobe and smashed the hidden wooden door, a dark entrance immediately appeared in front of everyone.
Xu Zun was stunned for a moment and couldn't believe his eyes.
I have lived in this house for more than half a year, how come I never knew there was a secret passage behind the closet?
He tried hard to search his memory, but his memory told him that he really didn't know anything.
"Sir," the guard reported to Cai Kun, "it looks like steps inside, and it looks very deep!"
"How is it?" Looking at everyone's surprised and surprised eyes, Cai Kun said proudly, "Let me tell you, this matter is definitely not that simple!"
After saying that, he snapped his fingers at his men, and four internal guards lit the fire and entered the secret passage with swords in hand to explore.
After a while, a light came on inside.
After a while, one of the guards ran out of it in panic. He immediately bowed in front of Cai Kun and reported tremblingly:
"Sir! If you find something serious, go in and take a look!"
"Oh? Okay!" Cai Kun was very excited. He immediately straightened his clothes and said to the officials around him, "Come on, everyone, let's take a look at what gifts our Xu County Lieutenant has prepared for us?"
While speaking, he deliberately observed Xu Zun's reaction, and then ordered: "Bring them in together!"
So, under the leadership of the guards, everyone entered the secret passage one by one.
As soon as you enter the secret passage, there is a staircase going down.
Everyone went down the steps and came to a narrow corridor.
The corridor is narrow and there are lampstands on both sides.
When the oil lamp is lit, you can see that the corridor is clean and tidy with no dust. There is enough oil in the oil lamp, indicating that someone maintains it regularly.
Everyone walked forward along the passageway, walking for twenty or thirty meters, and then finally came to a relatively open secret room.
However, Cai Kun, who was walking at the front, was suddenly stunned when he first saw the situation in the secret room!
His eyes widened and his cheeks trembled, as if what was in the secret room was far beyond his expectation.
Immediately afterwards, after all the officials entered the hall, they were all stunned as if struck by lightning.
The elderly Li Yan became paralyzed and almost collapsed to the ground. Fortunately, Chen Taiji helped him in time.
At this moment, because Xu Zun was at the back of the team, after seeing the surprised expressions of the people in front, his curiosity suddenly reached its peak.
Judging from the location, this secret room is located just below my backyard.
There is such a large space underground in the backyard, and it is really unbelievable that I don't know about it.
So, he did not hesitate to lean forward, even putting his head on Luo Wanwan's shoulder and squeezing in.
However, before he could see the situation in the secret room, he heard an order from Cai Kun in front of him:
"Quick! Get Xu Zun! Get it!!!"
ah?
Xu Zun was already tied up with ropes and had already been captured by them. Why did he have to be captured again?
"yes!"
However, the guards in front had already understood the leader's intention, and immediately pushed Qiu Yongnian and Luo Wanwan away, then pulled Xu Zun into the hall, pulled out the sword sharply, and put the cold blade on Xu Zun's neck.
superior!
Damn it!
After Xu Zun was pushed to the ground, he finally saw the situation in the secret room clearly.
But there were large pieces of iron plates, rivets, hammers, saws, etc. scattered in the secret room, and in the center of the secret room, there lay a huge, black and ink-iron coffin!!!
this……
This, this, this...
Under the shocking shock, Xu Zun couldn't even scold his empress Xiong!
What exactly is this for?
Why...the iron coffin appears underground in your home?
Could it be that the culprit of the Iron Coffin Case is me!!?
impossible!
Xu Zun's mind went blank. Even though he had traveled through time, his memory could not lie. He had nothing to do with this iron coffin!
Looking up, I saw that the iron coffin in front of me was not yet completed. There were large pieces of iron plates that had not been assembled, and there was no lid on it.
However, something seemed to be lying inside the coffin, and Xu Zun could not see clearly due to the obstruction of his vision.
"Actually...that's it!?"
At this moment, Qiu Yongnian also collapsed on the ground, with a look of disbelief on his face. At the same time, he looked at Xu Zun with a resentful look.
"How..." he asked tremblingly, "how could it be you?"
"Huh!" Luo Wanwan snorted from behind, but there was only anger in his eyes.
"Your Excellency!" At this time, a guard reported to Cai Kunhui, "A dead body was found in the coffin. It seems that he died not long ago."
ah?
Xu Zun thought that the shock was over, but he didn't expect that it would continue.
"Carry it out and let them identify it." Cai Kun ordered the guards to carry the body out.
As a result, before seeing the appearance of the corpse, Xu Zun recognized the owner of the corpse just by his clothes, and it was his housekeeper—Xiao Qi!!!
"Sir," Qiu Yongnian also recognized him and said quickly, "this person is Xu County Lieutenant's servant."
Bada...
The corpse was thrown in front of Xu Zun, and Xiao Qi's young face had no signs of life. His eyes were wide open, staring blankly, and there was an abrupt twist on his neck.
The neck was broken!
Xu Zun thought silently in his heart that this way of death was exactly the same as that of Chief Registrar Liu Zhang.
Clean and neat, one move is fatal.
The person who killed Xiao Qi should be the master Huo Anu mentioned!
"Beautiful! So beautiful!" At this moment, Cai Kun seemed to have just recovered from the shock, and said in his usual tone, "How are you, everyone, I think this case must be caused by an insider, right?
"Lieutenant Xu County, you are really hiding deep!" He raised the letter in front of Xu Zun and said, "If Cai guessed correctly, the person who exposed you should also be one of your important subordinates, right? It's very difficult.
Unfortunately, you were betrayed by one of your own!"
Tsk tsk...
Xu Zun frowned and said in his heart, I was not betrayed, but framed again.
"Now, why don't you hurry up and reveal your accomplice..."
Cai Kun originally said that he was bound to win, but before the word "explain" came out of his mouth, his eyes suddenly froze!
Then, as he opened and closed his brows, he seemed to have thought of an important thought.
"Sir! I have something to say in my humble position!!" At this moment, an old but extremely powerful voice suddenly came from behind everyone.
Everyone turned around and saw that this person was the Prime Minister of Xinye County, Wanwan Wan, whose hands were tied!
"This house..." Luo Baiwan said with a sigh of relief, "it does not belong to Xu Zun!"
boom……
Just a few words, but Xu Zun was struck by five thunders. He already knew what Luo Wanwan wanted to say!
"Sir!" Luo Wanwan knelt heavily on the ground and said bitterly, "I believe that Xu Zun alone can never commit such a shocking case.
"Behind him, there must be more powerful forces supporting him!"
"Oh..." Cai Kun narrowed his eyes and showed that dark and chilling smile again, "This is actually the same thing as me. In this case...
"Master Chen, Master Li!" He turned around and ordered to the censor Chen Taiji and the governor Li Yan, "organize all the people immediately, surround the Shen Mansion, and arrest Shen Tiande!!
