Chapter 1640 The dagger saved her life
Meng Yunzheng walked in a hurry, and the more he walked, the more frightened he became.
It was obvious that there was a big battle here. There were bloodstains sprayed on the pillars on the ground and walls, a scorch mark on the corner of the wall, a handkerchief dropped by a woman on the veranda, and two broken wooden sticks.
It was quiet in the escort, Shu Yu and Meng Yunzheng looked at each other, and the four walked towards the backyard.
However, there was not a single person along the way. Several rooms were in chaos, and some rooms seemed to be untouched.
But there is no rice, flour, grain and oil in the kitchen, and it is most likely that someone has put it away.
After looking around, no one was found, and the four gathered again.
"Where did they go?"
The Meng Family Escort should be prepared. After all, Meng Pei came to Chenggu County more than a month ago, and he knew very well that he had to prepare for the future. Although the entire **** bureau was in a mess, not everyone had an accident.
Meng Yunzheng thought for a while, "Follow me."
He led the way in front, walking towards the firewood house, and explained, "My father said that there is a secret passage over the firewood house, and inside the secret passage is a secret room. If it is a back road, that place is the most suitable. "
The secret room of the Meng family was passed down from Meng Pei's grandfather, and it has always been known only to the head of the family who was chosen as the head of the dart.
The Meng family's security bureau was quite famous in the early years, not only in Chenggu County, but also one of the best in the entire Changjin Mansion. Therefore, the business was very good at the beginning, and the darts escorted also had a few valuable things.
The old man of the Meng family built this secret room specially to preserve those things, so as not to be coveted and stolen.
But later the Meng family experienced a series of changes. The old man of the Meng family was betrayed by his best brother, and most of the escorts left. Later, when the **** agency was passed on to Meng Pei's father's generation, because of his early death, Meng Pei, who was still young, took over.
Some uncles with good qualifications were not convinced, and some of them set up their own businesses.
Meng Pei had the ability, and gradually propped up the **** bureau. However, for Song Xin's safety, he soon left Chenggu County, and went to Tianning County for ten years because of the opening of the **** bureau.
was discovered by Gongqiu, and he has been hiding for many years.
Uncle Meng had a hard time taking over at first, although he slowly got on the right track.
However, the Meng family's **** bureau has gradually declined after so many changes. The value of the darts received is limited, so there is no need to store them in the secret room.
So the Meng family's secret room has not been used for a long time.
But the head of the Meng family knew about it. When Meng Pei handed over the **** here to Uncle Meng, he told him about it.
As for the others, I don't know.
Meng Yunzheng knew that it was mentioned when the two discussed the way back before Meng Pei left.
Since there was a ready place to hide, Meng Yunzheng was not so worried and let Meng Pei leave.
"There is no one in the Meng family, and everyone is inside." Even if not all of them are there, at least some of them are.
Shu Yu breathed a sigh of relief and followed him to the woodshed.
At this time, in the secret passage under the firewood house, there were indeed a group of people, but all of them were very pale.
Meng Han sat on the ground with his hands around his knees, and the whole person was very depressed.
She held the dagger that Meng Yunzheng gave her tightly in her hand and smiled bitterly.
She never thought that a weapon that she thought would not be of great use would actually save her life.
