Zheng Xiang was afraid and followed Qi Baoer in a confused circle. The road in front of Prince Xian was always open to her, but the problem was that there were not many places where she could see clearly. They were more like
It was the two people who entered the black water and walked forward wearing transparent masks.
The place you can see in front is limited, and the black fog will close again in the places you pass behind.
No matter how bold and steady Mr. Zheng is, he really doesn't dare to run around in such an environment.
All he knew was that he had lost track of his direction after twisting and turning. When Prince Xian in front of him finally stopped, he seemed to see stars rising above his head.
"Is this the entrance?" Zheng Xiang saw the rockery not far in front of where Qi Bao'er was standing.
As a man who looked around at rockeries everywhere in his mansion, Prime Minister Zheng knew that if there was an underground world in his mansion, it would be most difficult to detect it if the entrance was in a place like a rockery.
Because there will be small passages built in the rockery, as long as the entrance is designed to be more secretive, the originally dark rockery passage will act as a perfect cover.
The fact was as he had guessed. Qi Baoer did not answer directly, but he already answered and asked: "Uncle Zheng, you have already seen this, the next one will only be more dangerous, do you still want to go down together?"
Zheng Xiang was silent. To be honest, if he could not go, he would rather leave this place where it was dark everywhere and made him feel very uncomfortable, but...
"go."
All right.
Qi Bao'er took out a few talismans that were broken into triangles and went over, "Put them away to ward off evil spirits. If you get into trouble next time, I may not be able to save you right away."
Zheng Xiang hurriedly took it without any politeness, and hid the treasure in his arms. After hiding it, he patted it carefully and carefully, feeling much more at ease.
Still with Qi Bao'er in front and him behind, the two of them slowly entered the rockery path.
The rockery road was already dark, and even if Qi Baoer took out a fist-sized luminous pearl, the darkness would not be dispelled by even two watts of light, but it would make the rockery road even more gloomy.
Fortunately, neither of them are timid.
Qi Bao'er seemed to have already known the entrance mechanism. After touching the side wall for a while, he pressed a button on a place that looked no different from the next one. With bursts of roaring sounds, the rockery wall in front of them faced downwards.
It slowly descended, revealing a downward passage that only one person could pass through.
The passage door began to open, and light came out from inside. As the passage door was fully opened, the two of them finally confirmed that the person who built this basement was absolutely very rich.
Qi Bao'er looked at the luminous pearl in his hand, and then looked at the luminous pearls inlaid on the side walls on both sides of the passage in front of him, a few meters apart. He instantly felt like he was losing.
Nonai's, the luminous pearls that are only a few meters apart on the wall are actually bigger than the one in her hand.
Prime Minister Zheng was also so shocked that his mouth almost turned cold. Even though he was the prime minister, he was not rich. Prince Xian took out such a big night pearl and he was already envious of it. There was actually someone who would compare to Xian.
Is the bigger one in the prince's hand really used as lighting?
By the way, no one in the palace dares to be so extravagant, right?!
Qi Baoer gritted his teeth: "Uncle Zheng, let's pry those away later."
Prime Minister Zheng, who was still in shock, immediately calmed down and hurriedly stepped forward to persuade: "Your Majesty, let's go down first and take a look at the situation below."
He didn't dare to stop Prince Xian, he just hoped that whatever was going on underground could divert Prince Xian's attention.
A minister of the Ministry of War and a prime minister of the country have discovered the treasure. How can they say that they have divided it together?
Qi Baoer glanced at him silently.
This glance at Zheng Xiang sent shivers down his spine, fearing that this sudden offender would do whatever he wanted. Would he stop him or not?
Nothing is right no matter what you do.
Fortunately, Qi Bao'er didn't hold on to those luminous pearls anymore. He put the luminous pearls in his hand away and stepped into the secret passage.
Zheng Xiang sighed and quickly followed.
After such a commotion, Zheng Xiang forgot his fear of this place for a moment, and just focused on the figure in front of him. As long as she got a little closer to the wall, Zheng Xiang's whole body collapsed and he was ready to rush to stop them.
Prepare.
Little did he know that Qi Bao'er's eyes in front of him were filled with snickers, and she even deliberately moved away from time to time to tease him.
The passage down and down is not long. To be precise, the basement here is not very hidden. Even if you simply go down through the entrance of the rockery, there is only one floor underneath.
After the two people walked out of the passage, they entered a place that looked like an underground cell with paths extending in all directions. They could go both left and right. Walking straight ahead, there was a room three or four meters to the left and right. The room had the same specifications as the Ministry of War dungeon.
Almost the same thing.
This is obviously where someone is being held.
Moreover, at least when they come, they plan to detain quite a few people.
Strange to say, the yin energy and resentment on the ground are thick and frightening, but the underground is clean and clean.
With his sight no longer blocked, Zheng Xiang no longer had to follow Qi Bao'er closely. The two of them looked left and right, and finally went around in a circle and met again on the opposite side.
Prime Minister Zheng: "There are six lanes here. I took the innermost lane. I guess the situation in the other five lanes is similar. There are a total of thirty-two cells in the sixth lane."
Qi Baoer said nothing and only nodded, but Zheng Xiang understood what she meant, and the situation was the same with her.
A quick calculation shows that there are twelve underground cell passages, so there are approximately 384 cells.
Zheng Xiang stopped outside one of the cells and took a closer look. The cell was about 20 square meters. It was impossible to imprison only one person in a 20-square-meter cell. It was estimated that it would be at least a few people, or more.
It’s not a problem to stuff one person/twenty or thirty people inside.
Just thinking about it...
Prime Minister Zheng was sweating from behind.
While Zheng Xiang was counting, Qi Baoer had already walked to another passage to check.
Seeing this, Zheng Xiang sighed and ran into another passage.
About a quarter of an hour later, the two met again at the entrance, and this time it was Qi Bao'er who spoke first.
She didn't know where she got two pears as big as Zheng Xiang's fist. She took one and gnawed it. When she saw Zheng Xiang, she easily handed the other over.
"The situation here can be seen clearly at a glance. This is a place where those who created and died are imprisoned. It is not the manufacturing place we imagined. If the other party wants to destroy this place, it is just because they don't want to attract the officials.
The government’s attention.”
Setting up a private prison is a serious crime in the Qilin Kingdom. It is tantamount to wanting to rebel. This is something that even the royal family and nobles dare not touch.
Therefore, the government will immediately arrest those who set up private prisons as soon as they are discovered, because there is no need to worry about whether there is someone behind them to protect them. Whoever dares to protect them is finished. This merit is properly obtained.
Zheng Xiang took the pear and took a sip. He happened to be thirsty after walking so long.
After Chewba swallowed it in one gulp, he said, "No wonder those people were frightened and ran away regardless of what was going on underground."
