Exile is exile, is half of the capital enough as compensation?

Chapter 127: Secret Passages Everywhere

Zhuangzi looks very dilapidated from the outside, but it has everything you need inside.

Judging from the aura, there are at least two to three hundred people living here, maybe more.

Because it was dark, it was pitch black inside. If it weren't for the help of mental power, it would not be easy for Leng Youran to find out the situation inside.

The village is divided into three parts, with two rows of side rooms on the east and west sides, and a row of larger houses in the middle.

There were many different smells inside, and it was really hard to tell how many people were there.

She had felt something strange when she was dealing with the Governor's Mansion just now. It was indeed strange that they took it over so quickly. After seeing this, she finally understood where the strangeness came from.

No wonder they succeeded so easily, it turned out to be because Zhu Dazhi's reserve troops had not yet taken action.

It seems that the people Zhu Dazhi invited to the banquet tonight were either of extremely high status or just small fry.

Thinking of how he was in a hurry to leave the backyard, an idea came to him.

"Let's go back to the governor's mansion."

Li Tianze thought she felt that the three of them were too few and wanted to go back and gather more people, so he didn't think much about it.

Leng Yuyang, who had just returned and heard that his younger sister was about to leave, thought that his younger sister was frightened by the large number of people in the village, so he didn't ask any more questions.

"Little sister, didn't we come back to gather manpower? Why did you come directly to the backyard?"

Li Tianze was also a little confused about what Leng Youran wanted to do, and looked at Leng Youran with a puzzled expression.

Leng Youran smiled and said nothing, but instead released his mental power to carefully check the situation in the backyard.

When she was fighting Zhu Dazhi and the others, she was only thinking about whether there was anyone watching and did not pay attention to the layout of the backyard.

Now after careful inspection, I found that she really missed a lot.

"follow me."

The two of them looked at each other, confused, and followed Leng Youran who had already started to leave.

Leng Youran walked in front and stopped beside an ordinary flower bed.

The flower bed, well, it’s called a flower bed, but actually there’s nothing in it now.

Just as they were about to ask something, they saw Leng Youran walk to a seemingly inconspicuous stone and stop.

Leng Youran squatted down, with his palm facing up and his index finger slightly bent, and tapped on the floor tiles.

A muffled thud sound reached the ears of the three people.

"empty?"

Leng Youran chuckled, "Well, big brother, come here and open this."

It was not that she couldn't lift it, but it was also a bit funny to see Leng Yuyang following behind her, afraid that Li Tianze would steal some of the credit.

It seems like I would be sorry for him if I don't let him do something.

really.

When Leng Yuyang heard his younger sister's greeting, he turned his head away proudly and glanced at Li Tianze who was still standing there stupidly.

From Tianze...

How childish.

I never realized he was such a person before!

The calm and scheming eldest young master of the Leng family is completely gone.

Leng Yuyang had no idea that Li Tianze was talking about him in his heart. He squatted down and lifted the floor with a little force.

A secret passage appeared before their eyes.

"Let's go." Leng Youran took the lead and walked down.

Leng Yuyang and Li Tianze followed closely behind.

After Leng Youran went down, a high-intensity flashlight appeared out of thin air in his hand.

Li Tianze didn't feel anything about this sudden scene, but Leng Yuyang was stunned for a moment.

I knew it, but I was still a little surprised when I saw it for the first time.

Li Tianze didn't pull him with good intentions. When he passed by him, he gave him a look that showed he had never seen the world.

Leng Yuyang felt his gaze and bit his back teeth.

Humph....

I cursed in my heart: Why are you showing off?

You're so calm because I've shown it to you before.

Otherwise, how could you be so calm?

He angrily glanced at the back of Li Tianze's head and quickly caught up with the two of them.

The three of them walked along the secret passage for a while, and the passage, which was originally only wide enough for two people to walk side by side, gradually became wider.

Leng Youran stopped at this moment.

Sniffed.

Li Tianze and Leng Yuyang also smelled a pungent smell, but they didn't know what it was.

Leng Youran took a deep breath and quickened his pace.

Soon, a wide secret passage appeared in front of them. The end of the secret passage was still not visible, and many baskets were placed on both sides of the wide space.

The baskets were covered with pieces of black cloth, and it was impossible to see what was inside with the naked eye.

Leng Youran already knew this through his mental exploration.

Still pretending to know nothing, they walked to the basket and lifted the black cloth on it. A bunch of weird-looking iron lumps appeared in front of the three of them.

"What is this?" Leng Yuyang stepped forward and picked one up to look at it curiously.

"Earth bomb." There was a chill in Leng Youran's voice.

She didn't expect that Zhu Dazhi had such a thing in his hand.

It goes without saying that this must be Zhu Jiaojiao's masterpiece.

Although these bombs are not as advanced as modern ones, the ratio of explosives inside them is completely sufficient.

"Brother, have you found any other secret passages in those wealthy merchants' houses?"

When Leng Yuyang heard that thing was called a bomb, his intuition told him that it was not a good thing.

I had already put the black lumps back into the basket, and was still wiping my hands with a towel because they were stained with a slight smell of sulfur.

Hearing Leng Youran's words, he quickly raised his head and said, "When I came here, my men were still searching. I haven't received any news yet, maybe they haven't found it yet."

Leng Youran fell silent.

Li Tianze already knew what she was worried about. He had witnessed the power of the paper bag thrown by Leng Youran before.

Although he didn't know what a bomb was, when he saw this, he naturally thought of the paper bag she had thrown out before.

The fact that they both exploded meant that the thing in front of her must be very different from what she had taken out before.

But he is more thoughtful than Leng Yuyang and thinks more. Leng Youran knows those things because of her secret.

But now that this kind of thing has appeared in the North, does that mean that there are people with secrets in the North as well?

"Youyou, do you know anyone in the north?" For some reason, Li Tianze always felt that there must be someone here who was familiar with Leng Youran.

Leng Youran was still thinking about the situations in the other secret passages when he asked her this. At first, there was a look of confusion on her face, but then she realized that she had discovered something unusual.

Without hiding anything, he said, "Yes, there were some before, but I have that person in my hands now, so there won't be any mistakes. I'm just worried that there might be these things in other secret passages. If any of them slip through the net during this cleanup, we'll be in a very passive position later."

Leng Yuyang was confused for a moment after listening to what the two said.

What does Li Tianze mean?

Why do you say there is someone I know in the North?

And why didn’t Li Tianze show too much surprise when he saw these things?
