The guy made a silent gesture to them, motioning them to keep quiet.

There are killers everywhere, and if they make even the slightest sound, they will attract the killers.

Yu curling, Luo Pingsha, and Ling Hai had to shut their mouths and swallowed their doubts.

The guy squatted on the ground and brushed the dust off the ground with his hands, revealing a ring handle.

He grabbed the handle and pulled it up hard.

The secret door was opened, and a secret passage appeared in front of them.

The guy glanced at them and said silently with his mouth.

"Come with me."

Then he entered the secret passage first.

Yu Weiwei, Luo Pingsha and Ling Hai looked at each other.

Although the guy saved them just now, they are still not completely sure that the guy can be trusted. What if the guy hides a trap in the secret passage?

If they go in further, wouldn't they be throwing themselves into the trap?

But the killers outside were still everywhere, and several of them had noticed the firewood room and walked towards the firewood room.

Hearing the approaching footsteps, Luo Pingsha was heartbroken and decided to take a gamble!

He crouched down, put one hand on the ground, and jumped into the secret passage.

After confirming that there was no danger in the secret passage, he raised his head and made a gesture to Yu Weiwei and Ling Hai, indicating that they could come down.

So Yu curling and Ling Hai also jumped down.

The guy climbed up the ladder and closed the secret door again.

Immediately afterwards, they heard footsteps above their heads, and it was obvious that someone had entered the woodshed.

The people searched around in the woodshed, and now and then came a few whispers of conversation.

"Did you find it?"

"No."

"Look again and look carefully."

"Um."

...

The guy took out the fire book he carried with him and lit the torch.

With the dim light of the fire, Yu Weiwei could clearly see the scene of this secret passage.

This is a narrow and dense road that can only accommodate one person, with rammed earth walls on both sides. Because there are no doors and windows, the air cannot circulate, and it is very stuffy.

The guy walked in the front with the torch and was responsible for leading the way.

Yu curling followed closely.

After Ling Hai, Luo Pingsha fell in the last one.

Yu Weiwei looked at the back in front and couldn't help but ask.

"Little brother, I still don't know what to call you?"

The man neither looked back nor answered her.

Yu curling continued to ask.

"Why did you save us?"

The guy still doesn't answer.

Yu Weiwei's heart moved, and suddenly asked.

"Did you expect a killer to kill me tonight?

The reason why you came to remind me to turn off the lights is because you are afraid that my location will be discovered by the killer hiding outside.

From the current point of view, you and the group of killers should not be in the same group, but you must know the origin of the group of killers.

This secret passage cannot be dug up in a short time, indicating that you have lived here for many years.

Digging tunnels is not something that can be done by one person, it means that you have accomplices, and there are more than one.

Your local power is not small, how do you compare with the Deng family? "

This time, the guy finally had a reaction.

He stopped, turned to look at her, opened his mouth slightly, and did not make a sound, but a thin silver needle protruded.

There were walls on both sides, and Yu curled up, unable to dodge, was pierced by the silver needle in the center.

Before she could make a sound, she felt that her eyes were black, and her body swayed and fell towards the back.

Ling Hai hurriedly supported her: "Prince Princess!"

Luo Pingsha hurriedly stretched out her hand to give Yu Weiwei a pulse, and found that she had just fallen asleep and was not poisoned, so she felt a little at ease.

He looked at the man warily and questioned.

"Why do you want to hurt people? Who are you?"

The man looked helpless: "I have no intention of hurting Princess Princess. It's just that she is too smart. I'm afraid she will guess all the details if she keeps guessing."

Luo Pingsha grasped the key words keenly: "You? Do you really have accomplices?"

The guy didn't answer, and turned his body back.

"Don't waste time, let's go."

Ling Hai and Luo Pingsha refused to move.

The guy said without looking back: "Don't blame me for not reminding you that the air here is not good, if you stay here all the time, you will soon be suffocated to death."

If they go back, they will meet the killers, and if they stay here, they will suffocate.

It seems that the only way out for them now is to move forward.

...

It was already dark, and everyone in Deng's house fell asleep.

The courtyard was quiet, except for the rustling of the leaves when the wind blew the leaves overnight.

Xiao Yan, who was wearing a black night clothes, jumped down from the roof and landed on the grass silently.

He looked left and right, made sure there was no one around, and strode up the steps to the door of the study.

With a slight push, the door of the study was pushed open by him.

He stepped over the threshold and entered.

When he walked to the bookshelf and was about to rummage through the Deng family tree, he suddenly stopped.

As if feeling something in his heart, he turned to look to the right and asked in a low voice.

"who is it?"

On the right is an arched carved door with a gauze curtain hanging down from the door. Behind the door is an inner room with a low couch and coffee table, which is used for lunch breaks on weekdays.

The night wind blew the veil, and the veil fluttered with it.

After a while, a slightly hunched voice appeared behind the veil.

He lifted the veil with one hand, leaned on a cane with the other hand, and walked out slowly.

It was actually the head of the Deng family, Deng Yuchuan!

He looked at the man standing not far away, as if seeing an old friend, and asked slowly.

"His Royal Highness, we have only been separated for half a day. Why are you here again? Could it be that something has fallen into our Deng family?"

When Xiao Yan saw him like that, he knew that the other party had been waiting here for a long time.

Presumably Deng Yuchuan had long expected that he would visit the Deng family at night, and was waiting for him here on purpose.

That being the case, he didn't have to go around in circles and directly explain his intentions.

"This king is here for Li Niang."

Deng Yuchuan: "Why do you have to investigate Li Niang?"

Xiao Fan was silent.

Deng Yuchuan: "It seems that His Royal Highness is still wary of me. Why don't I give you a gift as a little thought for you."

He lifted his cane slightly and tapped the ground three times.

The red sandalwood cane and the white marble collided with each other, making a crisp sound.

After a while, one of the white marble floor tiles slowly sank.

A narrow secret passage appeared in front of the two of them.

Immediately afterwards, the guy climbed out of the secret passage with a torch, followed by Ling Hai and Luo Pingsha.

Yu curling was still in a drowsiness, she was carried by Luo Pingsha on her back.

When they saw Xiao Yan, they couldn't help being stunned.

"His Royal Highness, why are you here?!"

Xiao Yan was also surprised.

He never thought that the three Yu Weiwei, who were supposed to be sleeping in the inn, would appear in the Deng family's study!

Deng Yuchuan put his hands on the crutches and smiled slightly.

"His Royal Highness, are you still satisfied with my gift?"
