Chapter 521 Insider
Do you still have the nerve to show up?
The veins on Gong Yanghan's forehead popped out, and he wanted to tear Song Jie alive on the spot.
If this guy hadn't done something bad and lied about information,
He even acted as a mole and informed Wu Dewei that there was a young master of the White Lotus Sect here.
How could they be trapped in the city and how could they almost die from random arrows?
"you..."
Just as Gong Yanghan was about to speak, he heard an extremely dense sound of arrows shooting from behind, occasionally mixed with the undetectable sound of sharp weapons breaking through the air.
They were several plain long swords, shot out from behind the Wude guardsmen,
It flew over the bluestone pavement at low altitude and stabbed towards everyone in the house.
Flying sword!
The two White Lotus disciples standing on the outermost side did not have time to dodge, and were directly pierced by the sword. They knelt down on the ground without making a sound, losing their lives.
I saw the eyes of the old man beside Gong Yanghan were out of focus, and he was chanting a mantra quickly in his mouth to freeze the flying sword hovering in the air.
A fat and strong man, a monk, jumped up lightly, waved his heavy Zen staff, and swept the two flying swords to the ground.
Only then did the other White Lotus cult members react and took out their weapons to hit the remaining flying swords.
However, the cavalry of the Wu Dewei had already begun to charge towards the building.
"Brother, look at me protecting the young master!"
Song Jie shouted loudly, rolled up the tables, chairs and benches on both sides with his palms like lightning, and threw them all to the door, blocking the door and barely blocking the rain of arrows.
Only two sticks came in, one on the left and one on the right.
\\(`?ω?′)/
Dripping blood gushed out from both shoulders, but Song Jie seemed not to feel the pain. He turned around and looked at Gong Yanghan and said anxiously: "Young master, it's dangerous here, come with me quickly!"
After that, he ignored Gong Yanghan's resistance, grabbed the latter's wrist, and dragged him towards the rear courtyard.
This building is a restaurant, with a water mill, water mirror, and stable in the courtyard.
In addition, there is a huge pothole in the center of the courtyard.
The pit is about three meters in diameter, and the entrance is in a regular and smooth circle.
Through the moonlight, you can vaguely see the straight and unfathomable pits, which seem to lead to the depths of the earth.
The followers of the White Lotus cult subconsciously asked: "This is..."
"It's too late to explain, jump now!"
Song Jie looked anxious and threw Gong Yanghan down the hole. He and several of his black-robed companions jumped into it and disappeared into the restaurant courtyard.
At this time, the sprinting Wude Wei Tiqi easily broke through the pile of wooden tables and chairs blocking the door.
The leader of the group, a middle-aged man with a beard, even rode on a horse and brandished a heavy horse spear, directly smashing open the courtyard wall and carrying smoke and dust to kill them.
"Jump!"
The white-browed old man who had been by Gong Yanghan's side no longer hesitated and jumped into the hole. The other members of the White Lotus cult also jumped down with a heartless heart.
————
The pothole is deeper than anyone imagined,
The members of the White Lotus sect fell all the way down the smooth tunnel. The dark environment and the roaring wind in their ears made them feel great fear.
Subconsciously screaming in fear, he reached out and grabbed the cave wall, but he couldn't stop the falling momentum at all. He could only let his fingers wear away the skin and expose the rugged white bones.
Fortunately, the straight tunnel finally began to curve at a very deep depth, like a huge slide, allowing everyone to slowly slow down.
In the end, the White Lotus cult members were rushed out of the tunnel at a bearable speed and fell to the ground in a daze.
"Ahem, ahem."
The dizzy Gong Yanghan coughed desperately, resisting the strong vomiting feeling in his stomach, stood up holding on to the wall, and shook his head.
Snapped--
In the darkness, someone pulled out the stopper of the torch and lit the torch, releasing light and dispelling the darkness.
The person holding the torch is Song Jie.
The members of the White Lotus cult who had fallen on the ground groaned in pain and stood up, using the firelight to look around.
The location where they are located is an oval-shaped dirt platform.
The platform is not too big, and at the top is a slide tunnel for everyone to slide down.
In a circle around the platform, there are seven tunnel entrances parallel to the platform, which seem to lead to different directions.
A member of the White Lotus cult murmured: "This is..."
"This is the secret passage under Luzhou."
Song Jie took a few torches from the cave wall, distributed them to his companions, and explained: "As you all know, our Luzhou branch is just like the other Bailian sects.
has been digging secret tunnels under the city,
Good at transporting people and supplies and delivering information,
The plan to hijack Annan Xiangrui was also based on underground tunnels.
However, just a few hours ago, during the process of clearing the secret passage, Song's subordinates accidentally discovered that there was an extremely large underground network tunnel system under Luzhou City that no one had ever set foot on. "
The White Lotus Sect old man frowned and said, "Netway?"
"That's right."
Song Jie nodded and said: "These tunnels look like they were dug manually, as if they were made by nature.
According to Song's estimate, it should have been built by an ancient prince using demons who were good at digging in the ground to build his own tomb secretly to prevent tomb robbers from invading.
Hundreds of years ago, Luzhou was just a wilderness, and the city was built before the previous dynasty.
And the tunnel is buried deep underground, so no one has ever discovered it.
Song originally wanted to inform the young master and everyone, but his plan to kidnap Xiangrui went wrong, so he was delayed..."
"error?"
Gong Yanghan became angry when he heard this, stared at Song Jie and said angrily: "Explain to me why it failed to bring auspiciousness, and why Wu Dewei launched a sudden attack?"
