The reborn king is ferocious

Chapter 101 The remains of the stone chamber
Luo Qingchen knew that the river flooded every summer, and when she was the queen, she spent a lot of treasury and couldn't manage it well.

Almost all the people along the Lannu River have fled, and this generation has a lot of grievances.

In fact, she also heard that the Lannu River had built an underground dredging channel before, but at that time Xu Hongwen said that the construction of the underground channel was not going well because of the complicated terrain, so he gave up.

Afterwards, Xu Hongwen said that if he entrusted this matter to him, the flood would definitely be cured.

Next, the amount of money allocated for disaster relief every year gradually increased, but the flood did not improve, and Luo Qingchen was very sad.

At that time, Fu Lingtian taunted Xu Hongwen in the court hall in a strange manner, because he didn't want the flood to end at all, that would be tantamount to cutting off his source of income, and Luo Qingchen gave him a severe lesson because of this.

Now, the strange fate guided her to come here, a strange feeling rose in Luo Qingchen's heart.

Walking all the way just now, even if Luo Qingchen didn't understand it, she could tell that it was well built here. She didn't know about other places, but the places she saw were all well-built and well-organized.
Of course, she no longer believed what Xu Hongwen said in that life. She didn't know who built the water conservancy project, what the original plan was, and whether it would relieve the flood if it was put into use.

Just as he was thinking, Xiaotian suddenly stopped, blew out the torch in Luo Qingchen's hand, covered her mouth, and leaned tightly against the stone wall.

Luo Qingchen was surprised, but couldn't speak. With an idea, he touched Xiaotian's hand and drew a question mark on his palm.

Xiao Tian squeezed her hand, as if telling her to keep quiet, and then wrote in her palm stroke by stroke: Wait for me.Then he walked away in the dark.

Xiaotian practiced martial arts and had a keen sense of hearing. Luo Qingchen guessed that he had discovered some problem, but he didn't worry about it, so he just stood there and waited.

After an unknown amount of time, her legs felt a little numb, and suddenly she heard human voices and chaotic footsteps in front of her, and a group of people came towards this side.

This passage has a long and straight path, even if she turned around and escaped, it would be too late, but what about Xiaotian, where did he go?

Luo Qingchen was about to turn around and run, and tried her best to see if she could avoid those people, but she heard the sound of the wind in front, someone grabbed her by the shoulder, slid down, took her hand and ran forward.

Luo Qingchen knew that it was him, Xiaotian, that warm and dry big hand with thin calluses.

She didn't ask any questions, and ran desperately with Xiaotian.

However, after all, the road was too long, and there was a faint light behind him. A group of men dressed differently from the Tianqiong people turned the corner. Someone heard their footsteps, and then a torch was thrown over fiercely.

Xiaotian paused, and with a wave of his free hand, he knocked down the torch that was almost behind Luo Qingchen.At this time, Luo Qingchen was still running forward, Xiaotian was very fast, the action of shooting down the torch did not delay his footsteps, he rushed forward, surpassed Luo Qingchen, and pulled her to continue running forward .

However, those who threw the torches found Xiaotian and Luo Qingchen, so they shouted and drew their weapons, and chased after them.

"Run to the higher ground." Luo Qingchen reminded.

Xiaotian pulled her away without thinking about what Luo Qingchen said.The people behind were getting closer and closer, Xiaotian pushed Luo Qingchen into a side road at a corner, and he turned to another road without stopping.

Is he trying to lure people away to save Luo Qingchen?

Luo Qingchen wanted to call him back, but the group had already chased him in the blink of an eye, so Luo Qingchen had no choice but to hide.

But Xiaotian didn't run far, just when a big man at the head was about to catch up with him, he suddenly turned around, and with the force of wind and thunder, he hit the big man's nose with his fist, and the big man collapsed to the ground immediately .

Seeing how brave he was, the villains at the back became more careful, raised their weapons and rushed forward.

Xiaotian drilled into the passage, so the superiority of those people's numbers could not be used at all, and only two people at a time could fight him in the passage.

And in this way, Luo Qingchen could no longer see Xiaotian's figure, only heard those people screaming murderously: "Kill him, this kid must have heard our conversation just now, he must die!"

Amidst the fierce clash of weapons, Xiaotian sarcastically said, "That depends on whether you have the ability to kill me!"

In the darkness, Luo Qingchen subconsciously grasped the stone wall behind him with both hands. Xiaotian was poisoned, and then fell from the vent. Although he took the antidote, his body was already very weak. Desperately trying to kill him, I don't know if he can handle it.

The clinking clashes over there mixed with the equally fierce shouting and cursing on both sides gradually drifted away, and the surrounding area gradually became a dead silence.

Luo Qingchen stood in the darkness for a long time, at first she was worried that Xiaotian would not find her when she came back, but then she decided that she had to find a way out.

Going out to find someone to look for Xiaotian is the only thing she can do right now.

She was afraid that the light would attract people who shouldn't be recruited, so Luo Qingchen didn't dare to light a fire, and slowly moved forward along the passage beside her.

The road was not long, and soon Luo Qingchen touched a wall, but she still didn't believe that the road ended here. After groping along the wall for a while, she was sure that she had reached the end of the road.

Then you have to go back, go out along the way you came from, and then look for a way out.

Luo Qingchen was thinking, heard footsteps, ran over eagerly, then stopped not far away, then Xiaotian whispered: "Qingchen, Qingchen, are you still there?"

Overjoyed, Luo Qingchen hurriedly said: "I'm here."

"Ah!" Xiaotian's voice was full of joy.

He found it based on his memory, but he didn't feel anyone at the entrance of the passage. He was worried that Luo Qingchen would be found and taken away by those people, and he was also afraid that she would lose her way and disappear.

At this time, Luo Qingchen lit up the torch to illuminate Xiaotian.A figure like a wisp of green smoke flitted over, and immediately she was embraced by Xiaotian, he was a little bit stronger under his joy, making her stagger backwards, and her back hit the stone wall with pain.

But at this moment, the stone wall shook slightly.

Luo Qingchen was about to reprimand Xiaotian for his reckless behavior, although his surprise also infected her, he was really worried about her, his arms were wide and warm, it was heartwarming in this cold passage, but she I still don't like such close contact.

Before she could speak, Xiaotian let go of her in surprise, took the torch from her hand, and shone it into the stone door that was moved behind him.

At the same time, Luo Qingchen smelled a strong stench, and immediately felt nauseated.

"Don't look back." Xiaotian said nervously, pressing Luo Qingchen's head to his chest.

Luo Qingchen's entire small face was buried on his strong chest, and through the thin clothes, she could smell the smell of medicine on Xiaotian's body, a bit of blood, and the warm breath of a man... All these seemed to be at this moment It smells so good.

And Xiaotian covered his nose with one hand, and stretched the torch in the other hand as far as possible into the darkness behind Luo Qingchen.

Luo Qingchen felt that his heartbeat seemed to have stopped for half a beat, and his body suddenly became a little cold.

Did Xiaotian see something terrifying?

Luo Qingchen wanted to turn his head to look, but Xiaotian felt her move, strengthened his hand, and said sharply: "I told you not to move!"

Luo Qingchen was stunned, at this time, Xiaotian had already touched the mechanism on the stone wall that they had accidentally touched before, and the stone door was closed heavily.

"Cover your mouth and nose tightly." Xiaotian picked up Luo Qingchen, with a gloomy face, stuffed the fire bag into Luo Qingchen's empty hand, rushed forward, and quickly left this place. Weird passage.

Arriving at the spacious exit connected to the passage, Xiaotian didn't stop, but ran along the upward path without stopping.

Gradually, a fresh breath came towards her face with a breeze, Luo Qingchen let go of her hand covering her mouth and nose, and silently grabbed Xiaotian's shoulder.

Finally, a light appeared in front of him, Xiaotian breathed a sigh of relief, went straight to the light, and put down Luo Qingchen.

There was a mottled and rusted iron door in front of him, with a big iron lock hanging on it, and the dense weeds growing outside almost covered the exit.

Seeing that Xiaotian's clothes were completely wet, and the sweat on his head dripped into his clothes along his cheeks and neck, Luo Qingchen said: "Let's take a rest first."

Unwillingly, Xiaotian grabbed the iron door with his hands, shook it vigorously, but it was not loose, looked up and down several times, then turned around and looked at Luo Qingchen.

Her eyes were clear, like a quiet stream in the mountains, which gradually calmed his agitated heart and returned to his composure.

"How many bones are there?" Luo Qingchen couldn't see the anger on his face, and there were waves hidden in his calmness.

Xiaotian couldn't bear to let her see the horrible situation in such a stench and such a secret place, but she had already guessed it.

"About a dozen or so, some of them have rotted to the point where their bones were exposed." Seeing Luo Qingchen's expressionless face, Xiaotian continued: "I don't know what secret those people discovered, they were assassinated and hid here."

"Why do you say it was an assassination?" Luo Qingchen asked.

"I saw some people with limbs missing and some without a head. They should have been plotted by others and resisted in a hurry, but the opponent had already planned well. They were killed in that room, and then closed the door... Wait until the flood season, the water When it rises, it will be submerged here, and I am afraid no one will find it.”

Luo Qingchen's opinion is different: "Even if it is not submerged, this place will basically not be found by anyone. We just found it by accident. Moreover, if it is used to divert the river, it has been built for a long time, but it has not been used Don’t you think it’s strange to see the traces of the past? By the way, what happened to those people before?”

Xiaotian also thinks this underground water conservancy project is very strange: "It seems that no one has entered or exited through this door for a long time. Is this place abandoned, or is it deliberately concealed? In short, there must be a mystery hidden in it, and I must find out when I go out. You should have seen those people just now, they are not from Tianqiong, they seem to be from Xichuan, they seem to be discussing to find some young master."

Recently, the battle with Xi Chuan has fallen into a stalemate. It seems that Xi Chuan is in a hurry.

But what does it mean to look for the young master?
