Chapter 53
A gap suddenly opened in the ground in front of Deacon Wu's threshold, and Ouyang Chen fell down in response!

Although Ouyang Chen had lightness kung fu, when he realized it, it was too late, and the stone slab on it had been firmly buckled.

However, upon landing, Ouyang Chen discovered the real danger.

He has been studying spices with his father since he was a child, and he immediately discovered that there is a fragrance "smell stand down" here.

His first reaction was to hold his breath, but he couldn't hold his breath for too long. He turned around in a hurry, and suddenly heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside the next wall. When he listened carefully, it seemed that there were still human voices.

Ouyang Chen instinctively slapped the wall, but the wall was hard, there was no response, and no sound could be heard for a while.

A wall away from Ouyang Chen is exactly Mu Junze and Luo Wushuang.

After they got out of the secret room, they found that the underground of Dongjun Pavilion was almost all this kind of secret room. All the secret rooms were like small squares, scattered all over the ground.

Probably the person who built the secret room had a more thoughtful mind. He used a special password to connect the secret rooms. In this way, the whole institution can not only deal with outsiders intrusion, but also provide convenience for the evacuation of its own people.

This is what they figured out after going through a few secret rooms just now. Although it is not clear why Luo Wushuang was able to activate the mechanism, they guessed that if they kept walking along the stone wall with the puzzle, they would definitely be able to find the exit.

As soon as they heard a sound from the wall next to them, they thought it was someone from Dongjun Pavilion chasing them from another road, so they didn't dare to delay for a moment, quickly completed the puzzle, and then left.

They don't know that, in fact, even Deacon Wu, who is in charge here, doesn't know the code of this underground agency.

I'm afraid only the original builders know what's going on.

After going through a few more secret rooms, Luo Wushuang's hands were almost cramping when moving the bricks. She swore secretly that she would never play puzzles again in her life!

Just when she was about to unlock it next time, she suddenly discovered that behind the movable brick wall was no longer a secret room, but a long and narrow passage, with a faint light coming in from the front!

"Your Highness, look, we have come out!" Luo Wushuang was so excited that he jumped and laughed, his eyes were shining like stars in the sky.

Mu Junze was also infected when he saw it, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, the two were about to move forward towards the exit, when they suddenly heard a "squeak" sound, and then a group of animals rushed over.

Luo Wushuang felt a movement at his feet, screamed in shock, and then immediately covered his mouth and hid aside.Mu Junze held a fire pocket in one hand and swung a sword in the other. When he took a closer look, it turned out to be a nest of mice.

Since no one has walked through this exit for many years, it is estimated that it has been forgotten by Youlan Black Market.Therefore, there was neither guard nor maintenance at the exit. The passage became narrower and narrower as it went forward, and it had already become a rat's nest.

Luo Wushuang is most afraid of rats and snakes. As the saying goes, snakes and rats make a nest, she is very afraid that there will be snakes here, so she can't wait to get out immediately.She looked at Mu Junze pitifully: "Your Highness King Yan, let's...let's get out as soon as possible! Help is the most important thing!"

Hearing her cry, Mu Junze twitched the corners of his mouth, and without saying anything, he opened the way with his sword, and forcibly split the narrow hole out of the space where a person walked sideways.

Mu Junze was in front, and Luo Wushuang followed.Mu Junze jumped out of the hole, Luo Wushuang was reaching to support the ground above, when suddenly a pair of big hands grabbed hers and pulled her up.

A gust of fresh air rushed towards us, with the scent of wild flowers and weeds. There was a star in the sky that was particularly bright. It was the morning star, and the sky was about to dawn.

Mu Junze had already let go of his hand, he used his sword to dig some soil beside it to fill in the exit, and put some weeds on it, trying to hide the traces as much as possible.

After doing this, Mu Junze turned around and saw Luo Wushuang looking at him with a smile, so he moved his eyes away uncomfortably, and said expressionlessly: "Why don't you go quickly?" After speaking, he strode forward go.

Luo Wushuang was in a good mood. After taking a few breaths of fresh air just now, she felt that her whole body was revived, so she immediately followed quickly, still keeping a distance from Mu Junze.

But for some reason, the itchy feeling of her hand being grabbed by him just now is still lingering, Luo Wushuang subconsciously shook his hand, then let go immediately, secretly cursing himself for being an idiot. Guilty.

Mu Junze's sense of direction was pretty good, it didn't take long for them to find the horse they had come from, and the two of them galloped away to the Forbidden Army Camp without any delay.

But in the Forbidden Army camp, it was not peaceful.

The one-day deadline that Master Yuan Xiang said is approaching, the antidote has not been found anywhere, His Royal Highness Yan is nowhere to be found, the poisoned soldiers cannot be cured and there is no improvement, as if they can only wait to die, but who is the poisoned person? , so far have not been able to find out.

The soldiers all knew that the poison came from mosquito repellent incense, but the suspects in Tianxiang Pavilion were only placed under house arrest in the barracks without any punishment.

In the eyes of the soldiers, this means that the soldiers of the Forbidden Army Battalion are still in danger. Does the imperial court and General Wu care about it?
Wu Shixian had heard these voices of dissatisfaction before, and since he was away from the barracks overnight, his complaints would only intensify.

After experiencing the coma of his own son, the crisis of the imperial army and the tragic death of his concubine, although Old General Wu still tried his best to hold his breath, he no longer had the vigor of the past.

If his son's antidote didn't arrive this morning, then he didn't dare to think about what he would do!
That was his only son, the son he was proud of.

Wu Shixian must grit his teeth, no matter what, he can't fall down, and the forbidden barracks can't be messed up. As long as he is still there, Wu Gengming will have hope, and the Wu family will have hope.

He asked Mrs. Li to bring him court clothes and dress them properly.

Mrs. Li couldn't help asking about her son's situation, Wu Shixian just looked away silently, patted her on the shoulder, and went to the palace to ask to see the emperor.

The dawn outside the house is gradually sinking, and the sky is about to dawn.

Wu Shixian got off his horse outside the palace gate, and ran quickly towards Zichen Palace.

The heat was steaming, and thin beads of sweat oozed from Wu Shixian's forehead.

After waiting for about a cup of tea, the emperor Mu Junyan arrived, Wu Shixian knelt down in panic, reported the situation of the general camp truthfully, and at the same time briefly talked about the disappearance of the logistics soldiers of the forbidden military camp and the assassination of the general's mansion.

Mu Junyan yawned as he listened, as if he hadn't woken up yet. After Wu Shixian finished speaking, he let him lie down, yawned again and asked, "You mean, until now, all you know is that the soldiers are poisoned?" Yes, but we don't know who poisoned it?"

"Returning to the emperor, the person who poisoned must be someone who has studied incense. At present, Tianxiang Pavilion is the most suspected. According to the opinion of the veteran, they should be put in prison first to comfort the morale of the army. After finding the evidence, they even You can be convicted if you don't confess." Wu Shixian deliberately avoided the emperor's question, and pointed the finger at Tianxiang Pavilion.

At this time, the people in Tianxiang Pavilion who were under house arrest in the Forbidden Barracks did not know what would greet them soon...
