"Sonny, wake up."
Ye Sang was gently shaken up before dawn.
As soon as I opened my eyes, Ji Changye was standing beside the couch. Her clothes had already been changed, and even her hair had changed. When I woke up, I didn't recognize her.
See her wake up, Ji long night clapped two hands, then self-care sitting at the table, look light.
Hearing the news, several girls waiting outside came in and served her to wash.
Ye sang rubbed his sleepy eyes, just woke up a little confused, looking at Ji Changye sitting on one side, it took a while to react.
"When my mother arrives, I'll ask daynight building to send some food. She's taking medicine these days. She doesn't want to make white peony on weekdays. Let the girls serve and drink more hot water."
After changing clothes and everything is ready, ye sang and Ji have a meal at the same time, instructing Jiao Mei and others.
Lengruolan's carriage is still behind. It's probably only this afternoon. They can't catch up with her, but they don't trust her after leaving these days.
At the end of the meal, he put down his chopsticks, and ye sang looked around, "where's the wolfberry grass?"
Hearing the master's question, Jiao Mei gave a light "Oh" and offered the mouthwash tea in a slight tone. "Miss Jiang and Lord Qin are waiting at the door."
With that, Jiao Mei looks up at the door, but when it comes to Qin Chen, she can't help thinking of general Helian, who has been away for a long time. I don't know what's wrong with him now.
Ye sang didn't notice her momentary absence. After gargling, she put the tea cup on the table, got up and looked at her dress from top to bottom, then dragged Ji Changye out.
As soon as they went out, they saw three people standing at the door, folded robes, Qin Chen and Jiang Qicao. As the door was opened, their "master" sounded in their ears.
Ye sang nodded. Today, Jiang Qicao is dressed in a dark green dress with tight cuffs and neat robes. The colors are very different from the usual style, and they are not attractive and convenient.
"Let's go."
Several people looked at each other. Ji Changye opened his mouth quietly and walked forward. Yu Guang left Ye sang standing there, thinking about what to do later.
After walking for a while, she came to the backyard and walked around to the back of a rockery. Ji Changye picked up a stone and knocked on the stone slab on the ground. After several times, she finally stopped on a stone slab near the rockery.
Throwing a stone, Ji Changye straightens up, looks at the folded robe and pulls Ye sang behind him to avoid choking her later.
I don't know where to find a thin iron bar. The tip is only as thick as a needle. I knock on the stone slab and pry along the crack of the stone slab for a long time.
At the beginning, she was worried about choking Ye sang. As the time for a cup of tea passed, the stone slab in front of her still remained motionless. Ji Changye sipped her lips, put down her daughter-in-law's hand, stepped forward and squatted beside her folded robe.
Two people big eyes stare small eyes, look at each other, and look at the slate, are a face of doubt.
"Give it to me."
Taking the small iron bar from the folded robe hand, Ji Chang's eyes were full of self-confidence and unyielding light. He pried and pulled it, and banged in the nails for a long time.
Ye sang is impatient and looks at the two people squatting there in confusion. Just as they are about to speak, Ji Changye suddenly turns his head.
"I can't open it. Maybe it's been a long time. It's sealed."
He nodded in agreement.
"Sealed?"
In fact, the underground city has not been built for several years. The secret road in the backyard leads to the outside of the city. Although it has not been used several times since it was built, it will not be sealed by itself in any case. It will take at least seven or eight years.
Thinking of this, ye sang waved to them, motioned them to get out of the way, frowned, squatted down and picked up the little iron stick on the ground.
Just about to start playing with it, at a glance, they suddenly found that the stone slab they had been prying for a long time had no movable appearance.
Ye Sang was stunned. He glanced back and forth at the stone slabs in front of him. Finally, he saw a wide stone crack. He picked up a small iron bar and poked it into the stone crack. With a little effort, the half square meter stone slab suddenly turned up.
Lost the little iron bar, ye sang turned his head to see two people, who knew that they almost turned their heads at the same time as if nothing had happened, as if they had just judged wrong and wasted their efforts.
Ye sang
The stone slab has a lot of weight. Seeing ye Sang's hard work, Qin Chen, who has been standing beside him for a long time, comes up with one hand to lift it up, and the secret crossing immediately appears in front of him.
Since the completion of the secret Road, they haven't gone down in person. They came forward to have a look. Ji Changye took the lead in jumping down, and then asked the folded robe to hold Ye sang down, while he carefully joined hands.
"It's not easy to get out of the city..."
After ye sang jumped down, the road of the secret road was paved very flat, but he seldom opened it. As soon as he went in, a stream of ash rushed over, which was very choking.
They would not have taken so much time and effort if they had not gone north and south to Xingyue mansion to attract people's attention, worried that Jingzhong might have noticed this and found the underground city again.After ye sang went down, he looked around, raised his hand and touched the concave convex stone on the wall of the secret road. He heard the dull sound of the stone slab pulling past. Then, with a bang, the secret road was closed, and the fit was perfect.
A few people walked back and forth. The dust in the secret road was heavy. Jiang Qicao took out a white handkerchief and handed it to Ye sang to cover his mouth and nose.
Groping forward, about a quarter of an hour later, the Party saw the exit of the secret road.
Qin Chen began to push away the stone block, the light outside came in, this is the time, the day has been completely bright.
One after another, the secret road came out. At first, the light outside was still dazzling. After going out, it opened up a lot. This secret road goes straight from the backyard of the house to the west wall of the city. It's remote and desolate here. There are few pedestrians. Few people come out of the city gate and go this way.
After putting down the handkerchief, ye sang breathed the fresh air and felt more comfortable in his lungs. He looked down at the dust on his body and brushed it gently.
the carriage outside the city was waiting long ago. Under the Wutong tree, one man and one car saw a lot of people out there. They immediately picked up their handbags and led the horse to the other side.
When he got to the front, he saw the folded robe and knew that the person next to him must be Ji Changye. As for the woman beside him, he thought it was their young lady, "master."
Ji Changye nodded and looked around. After pulling Ye Sang's hand, she got on the carriage. Jiang Qicao also went up.
Zhebao and Qin Chen were sitting on both sides of the carriage, leaning against the carriage, and talking with the driver. The suburbs were not close to Huai'an County, and it took at least an hour to get there.
At the same time, outside Xingyue mansion.
There were several men sitting at the tea stand beside the street, usually dressed up, holding tea in one hand, chatting with the people sitting opposite, but their eyes glanced at the gate of the house from time to time.
They are facing Ye Sang's house. They have a wide view. People are arranged to watch the other two doors. Even if a fly flies out, they can see it clearly.
"Squeak -"
when the vermilion door opened, several men were on the alert, and their eyes were like arrows, "whoosh" to the gate.
Jiao Mei and Dong Jiu come out with a basket, followed by Zhu Yan and Shen yunyun. They talk and laugh as they walk. Their voices are louder than usual, just enough for people at the tea stand to hear them clearly.
"The young lady said that the crabs in Dongmen morning market are good, fresh and plump. You'll buy them later, and I'll buy some rouge paste. I'll run out of them in the room."
"It's all secondary. The young master got up early today and said he wanted to eat loquat. Go to the east of the city to find it. If you have it, it's natural. It's just not convenient."
“……”
Listening to these girls talking about buying vegetables and things, a few people here were relieved, but there was still a little impatience on their faces. They turned their heads and continued to talk, ignoring the other side.
When she got to the corner, Jiao Mei couldn't help looking back. She only saw the men sitting on the tea stand and saying, "since yesterday, we've been sitting there drinking tea. Today, we don't need to change a group of people. Can we be more obvious..."
Listening to her murmur, Dong Jiu couldn't help but "puff" with a smile, curved eyebrows and a little playful, "but no, well, let's let them sit there and let's go shopping."
Ye sang had long expected that someone in the court would stare, so he arranged for these girls to go out to buy vegetables and goods every day, creating a false impression that they were still in the house.
When the carriage arrived in Huai'an County, it was the first time. The sun was to the west, and it made people warm.
"Xu -"
as the wheels slowly stop, Ji Changye helps Ye sang out of the carriage.
They are now in a forest on the outskirts of Huai'an County, the entrance to the underground city.
They walked back and forth, folding robes and Qin Chen exploring the way in the front, Ji Changye, ye sang and Jiang Qicao walking slowly behind, but they were still on guard before they went in.
Walking along the forest road for hundreds of steps, I vaguely heard the sound of water. Folding robes and Qin Chen stopped at the same time, looked at each other, and determined the direction behind the waterfall is the entrance of the underground city.
Around a few cypress trees, a quite spectacular waterfall appeared in front of the public.
High stream water, its voice is strong, the voice is hard to hear, other voices are buried in it, so the underground city was built in this location, the concealment is very strong.
The terrain here is steep and uneven. It takes some effort to cross the waterfall. Qin Chen and zhebao go ahead with Jiang Qicao. Before ye sang can react, he is picked up by Ji Changye and whirls to the back of the waterfall.
Just now, the road in front of us is smoother. There are high streams on both sides. The underground city is located in the hinterland between the two streams. Compared with the outside of the forest, the ground is very low.
Dozens of steps ahead, a tall building door stood in front, and before he came near, the soldiers guarding the door had warily picked up the sword, "who are you?"
