Chapter 3 Tunnels
The group of people lived in the temporarily rented Sanjin House and had been taking care of the "unconscious" Pei Yan for two months. The eldest prince asked the eldest prince to send heavy troops to guard the savior's actions at the front door. He knew at his knees that this was a trick.
Already.
He has only been practicing martial arts for six years. Although he is not very comfortable in the face of such a large-scale assassination, he can't handle a thrilling assassination with just two or three moves, right?
Not to mention that the old manor owner would give him skin and cramps if he sneaked down the mountain. Just because Ji Leshan was suspected of intervening in the court disputes, he had to die countless times. He even knelt through the floor of the ancestral hall and didn't know whether the old manor owner could do it.
cool down.
The house was filled with excavated soil. Once we entered the courtyard, we only dug out half of the way out. We encountered three-inch nails on the way. When we hit the empty soil, we were so scared that our backs were wet with sweat. We thought we had been caught trying to escape. This is not true.
Hanging her up, how could she suppress the deer that was about to jump out of her chest?
"Baby, tell me your name!" Pei Yan rubbed his chin with his thumb again, wondering what he was thinking about.
"Brother! Don't you think you should put me down first?" Yan Juan was dangling her hands and feet in mid-air, dumbfounded.
"inconvenient."
"..." Is this inconvenient?
Pei Yan stood in front of her and looked straight at her. "It's very good to speak like this."
Good kidneys? I wish you good lungs, good liver, and good stomach!
Yan Juan cursed in her heart, waving her hands and feet but unable to catch anything around her, so she could only put down her hands and feet and continue to glare at him. He had already buried her twice without leaving a trace!!
The two young men could not bear to caress their foreheads, but they did not dare to go against their master's wishes.
"Tell me! What's the baby's name?" Pei Yan moved closer to Yan Jue, and his index finger picked up her small and pink nose, but it revealed her struggle.
Yan Juan raised her hand and waved away the big palm that he wanted to touch again, roaring out her name. "Scorching face, Zi Dui Cheng Juan."
"Yan Juan?" Pei Yan subconsciously chose these two words.
Fortunately, he had studied for a few years.
"Yes!" Yan Juan replied with a sigh of relief.
Pei Yan hinted that the two young men should go explore the path and explore the tunnel she dug.
Yan Juan looked at the backs of the two people who were leaving as ordered, and her mind was running through thousands of possibilities. Why did they want to try to see if they could get out through her way?
Although these three masters and servants don't look as good as Xiao Guan, they should have read several years of sage books based on their age. Is it necessary to cut off her way out?
Pei Yan saw her resentment at being robbed of her chance of survival, and had no choice but to give him a hand.
"Girl Yatou, my brother will tell you the truth, I really need a way to survive. If I can leave the capital smoothly, my brother will definitely not forget you."
"Could it be that you killed people and set fires to escape?" Yan Juan had a sudden idea.
Pei Yan sighed sadly. "Girl, I look like the material for murder and arson?"
Yan Juan shook her head.
"That's right!" Pei Yan raised his eyebrows and praised her for her knowledge.
"But digging a tunnel in the middle of the night is out of character." This is obviously speaking of myself??
"Only knowledge can change, that's good!" Pei Yan pretended not to understand and praised her.
Can you be more shameless? Is it possible that you didn’t dig it?
Yan Juan's eyes were full of accusations.
"My brother had no choice but to..." Pei Yan sighed again.
"What's such a big deal that you have to dig three feet into the ground?" Yan Juan snorted coldly, tilting her head.
"I ran away for more than two months. If I don't go back home, I should have prepared a bed of nails for me to roll on before entering the house." Pei Yan couldn't help but tremble at the thought of what he was facing.
Yan Juan also surrendered. She was so envious of being able to run away from home for two months.
"Don't look at me with such admiration. My brother just wanted to go down the mountain to have a delicious meal, but he was tricked so hard that he almost couldn't return home." Pei Yan couldn't help but put his forehead on his hands and sighed.
"It sounds like something big happened!" This aroused her curiosity.
Pei Yan briefly introduced himself, and went through the family rules and the incident, which made Yan Jue chuckle.
"Brother Yan is so troublesome!"
"Can you endure a big knife being chopped on the head? My beef with soy sauce is all on the ground!" Is it easy to go down the mountain? Besides, he sneaked down the mountain just for the beef with soy sauce.
Foodies! Not many people can be tricked so openly just for food!
The corner of Yan Jue's mouth twitched. "So Brother Yan plans to dig a tunnel out of the city according to the map?"
"That's all..." Pei Yan looked sadly at the direction in which the two boys disappeared. "My family only gave me a map, 10,000 taels of silver notes, and two boys, and asked me to use the fastest way possible.
Return home quickly.”
"..." How can I be so aggrieved after such a move in my family? Will I be punished by God?
"Brother Yan, how about your Qinggong?" This brother Yan shouted so hard that her cheeks hurt!
As a mother in her thirties, can she not get upset when calling her teenage baby brother? She is afraid that he will be struck by lightning.
"It's okay! Ordinary courtyard walls can't stop me, but I can't escape from the house I rented." The gate was always heavily guarded. He relied on the silhouettes of the two boys to deceive everyone, so that he could feel at ease after nightfall.
Digging.
Yan Jue bit her lip and really didn't know whether she should mention to him that she was also running for her life, but the two boys came back from the other side.
"Master, the other end should be under the little girl's bed, and outside is a secluded Buddhist hall. We can leave." Guyu respectfully reported.
After listening, Pei Yan frowned and looked at the girl on the shelf. "Amazing! How old are you? What big mistake did you make that warrants you being locked up in the Buddhist hall?"
"Don't you want Brother Yan to save me?" Yan Juan smiled bitterly.
"It's not a big deal for me to save you, even if I can't get the contract..." Pei Yan's murmur was interrupted by Yan Jue.
"There is no such thing as a bond of sale! I am not a slave."
Pei Yan narrowed his eyes and looked at her. "Could it be that she is the girl from Jing'an Hou Mansion?"
Yan Juan raised her chin to face his doubts. "How do I look like the girl from Jing'an Hou Mansion?"
"Come on! Tell me! Which boudoir girl dug a tunnel in the middle of the night?"
Hit the nail on the head!
"Brother Yan is not happy with digging tunnels, and so am I!" Yan Jue's big eyes were shining with sadness in the dim light. "Who told me to be born a few quarters of an hour late?
Go back!"
"Twins?" Pei Yan hissed. "Twins are hidden in the Hou Mansion?"
Even though Jileshan Guangbu was arrested and arrested, he didn't even find out what secrets the Jing'an Marquis' Mansion hid, yet he actually bumped into him? The twins of the Yong Dynasty were not allowed to see the world. This information fell into the hands of the courtiers, and the Jing'an Marquis' Mansion...
....
Look at her calm and fearless attitude. How wronged she must have been, so that she had to dig a hole to escape at such a young age? Look at her clothes in short brown cloth, with her hands and feet tied to stone pillars. How determined was she to escape?
He was lucky to meet Yan Juan, who was able to escape from the entanglements of his previous dynasty; Yan Juan was also a great blessing among misfortunes to meet him.
"Girl, this is a life-saving grace!"
Yan Juan shrugged. "Isn't it the same for me, brother Yan?"
The worst that can happen is a life, but can it still be shattered into ashes?
"Yes..." Pei Yan was choked and almost choked to death on his spit. He sent Leshan to show kindness without expecting repayment, but the life-saving grace was repaid by a spring. Yan Jue was winning at the starting point.
"That's it! We can leave this deep compound first before we talk about anything else." She had been planning for a long time. There were still many things she had to do if she could really escape!
"Where can you go when you are so young?" Pei Yan saw her response for her age, and felt that she had gone too far. The comparison was like a mirror, and his heart ached.
"We'll think about it after we go out." Yan Juan turned her head and looked into the distance as best she could, and saw the dark and dim road where Pei Yan and his party came.
"What are you looking at?" Pei Yan also looked around, but found nothing.
"Where did the soil that Brother Yan dug up go?" She had been practicing gardening for many days, and now the courtyard of the Buddhist temple and the outside of the corridor have a real sense of beauty!
Looking at the dark and endless tunnel, she was really curious about how he dealt with so much earth and rocks.
"I rented an old house with three courtyards, and all the houses were piled in the back." Pei Yan scratched his head and laughed.
Yan Juan's eyes widened and she shed tears of sympathy for the landlord. She had encountered a bad tenant!
"I see you won't be able to leave tonight. Just cleaning up the house won't be finished." Yan Ju shook her head and sighed.
"Who cares about him? It's important to run for your life." Pei Yan picked up Yan Ju and was about to go to Jing'an Bo's house.
"No!" Yan Jue glared at him before he asked. "Brother Yan, you just left like this. What should we do if someone walks along the tunnel to Jing'an Bo's Mansion?"
Yan Juan tried her best to climb up to Pei Yan's neck and clamped her legs around his waist. The two of them looked at each other and patted his cheeks with their plump and cute hands. "You and I can't escape, so your landlord can't be implicated, my respect."
