Yan Rujin looked along the direction of Wang Lei's torch and indeed saw the oil lamp with burning marks.

However, at its lower end, there is a faint line that seems to be invisible.

"point!"

Although I don’t quite understand it, it feels more dangerous when it’s so dark.

After Yan Rujin finished speaking, she ordered people to take a few steps back.

Wang Lei held the torch and watched everyone retreat to a safe distance before carefully lighting the fuel lamp.

really……

With a sound of "Boom!", the oil lamp suddenly exploded.

Everyone subconsciously protects Yan Rujin.

"Wait a moment……"

As soon as Yan Rujin raised her sleeves to cover her face, she saw the explosion of fire quickly igniting the thread that she had just felt was weird.

I saw that the line was quickly ignited by the fire and spread quickly. Then I saw this long passage, and the oil lamps on the left and right sides were lit one after another.

In the blink of an eye, the entire passage was brightly lit.

Seeing how exquisitely carved dragons and phoenixes were carved on the four walls of the passage, Wang Lei did not dare to drop the torch in his hand, so he led a group of people to clear the way.

Yan Rujin looked at the passage, which extended downwards. The more he walked, the more he felt that this place could be called an underground palace.

There are rooms where jade and treasures are displayed, and an inner room where screen paintings are placed.Every two steps there is a small room, which is divided into categories and arranged neatly and orderly.

"No surprise, this should be the emperor's small treasury!"

Otherwise, she really couldn't imagine who would hide so many treasures in the palace.

Finally, they came to a fork in the road.

Yu Wenyan took a look and immediately snatched the torch from Wang Lei's hand: "Jinjin, give me a few people, I'll go to the right!"

Seeing her firm eyes, Yan Rujin was obviously a little worried. After thinking about it, she didn't encounter any traps or traps along the way, but she shouldn't be careless.

"Uncle Lei, you go with me, Sister Yan, and I'll take the people to the left. After an hour, no matter where we go, we have to meet back here!"

She could tell that her Uncle Lei didn't trust her, but the look on her face made Wang Lei dare not disobey him.

Watching Wang Lei lead ten people and Yu Wenyan to the right, Yan Rujin counted the 15 people left here, and said: "Six people are in front, and the remaining ones are in the back. Remember who is behind you, behind you, on the left, and on the left. If there is any Also stop advancing, and the rear team will change to the front team to retreat."

These people once fought hard on the battlefield. Although they are now serving as Golden Feather Guards, the murderous aura on their bodies cannot be concealed by their thick armor.

Everyone unsheathed their cold swords and carefully protected Yan Rujin as she gradually penetrated deeper.

The further they walked, the more Yan Rujin felt that the surroundings were very strange.

Not long after they entered, they saw the rooms where treasures were stored, but there were no other rooms at this time...

"Cave Master, there is a sound..."

Everyone immediately became alert.

The crackling sound of the lights was still crackling, and Yan Rujin's heart was clenched.

But it's not a problem to just be frozen like this.

"Who is in front?"

She waited for a while but did not respond, then said again: "I am Yan Rujin, the granddaughter of Wang Jinwen Wangge."

……

"Jin Jin!"

The familiar female voice made Yan Rujin's heart freeze, and she quickly said excitedly: "Sister Yan!"

With that said, he was about to run over to find Yu Wenyan, but the leader of the Jin Yuwei wearing an animal head immediately stopped Yan Rujin.

“Cave Master, it’s better to be careful!”

As he said this, he rushed forward, always on guard.

After running a few steps, they were surprised to find that the two teams that had just separated from the fork in the road met in this narrow passage.

The two hugged each other excitedly, but then their expressions turned ugly.

"Jinjin, we didn't find anything strange along the way. Isn't the person here?" Yu Wenyan was worried about his father and looked at the carved walls in confusion.

Yan Rujin understood her mood.But thinking about how she and Yu Wenyan were able to reunite just now despite being separated.

"I'm not sure, the person we are looking for is hidden behind this wall..."

No matter how she looked at it, Yan Rujin always felt that she and Yu Wenyan had walked through a big circle, and all the civil and military officials were hidden inside this circle.

I don’t know anyway, so it’s better to start from this point.

"Start digging here."

When he heard that Yan Rujin was about to dig, Yu Wenyan quickly stopped him: "What if this is not the place? I always feel that it is not that simple. Could it be that we understood it wrong?"

According to Yan Rujin's strong sixth sense, she could feel that there was definitely something behind this wall.

"Dig!" It's useless to explain.

Everyone started digging with the tools they had.

Fortunately, the exquisitely carved walls are also made of large green bricks, which are relatively easy to pry up.But not long after, after a layer of soil, they encountered another boulder with the same hardness as at the entrance of the cave.

Subconsciously she wanted to explode with thunder!

But when she was on the shore, she clearly saw the power of the thunder.

Just as he was touching the stone wall, Yu Wenyan immediately came up to him and said, "I remember there are still two shocking thunders left. I'm going to get them now!"

Yan Rujin quickly refused: "Based on the power of the thunder, I am afraid that the Kyushu Sea above my head will pour in with this explosion."

As she spoke, she touched the wall, always feeling that she had overlooked something.

Thinking that the Imperial Master suddenly jumped into the Nine Provinces Sea and disappeared without a trace.

No, is there a secret passage out of the palace hidden here?

Also, the eunuch and the Jin Yuwei on duty on the shore said that the whole island was brightly lit and people were coming and going. Where had those people gone?

Could it be that her preconceptions were wrong from the beginning?
"Let's go!" Yan Rujin decided to leave through the secret passage here first.

But unexpectedly, on their way back, the original passage was suddenly completely blocked by a huge stone.

Even Yu Wenyan started to panic: "Jinjin, we obviously came from here, where is the way?"

She said in a panic while hitting the stone with her fist.

But Shimen remained motionless.

Yan Rujin looked at the boulder extremely calmly.This is looking at a wall behind me.

The whole surface is carved with dragons and phoenixes in auspicious form, with phoenixes among dragons and dragons among phoenixes.

Touching the phoenix head, Yan Rujin discovered that both longan and phoenix eyes were made of colored glaze.

There was obviously a little dust everywhere, but the eyes of the dragon and the phoenix were so bright.

She pressed it subconsciously.

"Click!"

A gap opened irregularly among the dragons and phoenixes.

Everyone couldn't help but feel happy, but the smiles didn't stay on their faces for more than a snap of their fingers.

A huge underground palace, brightly lit.

Yu Wenyan's originally smiling face was suddenly filled with shock, and his eyes were instantly stained with moisture: "Dad..."

Each of the court ministers had their hands tied and hung on the beams.

Their bodies were all in disrepair.

Facing the coming person, they didn't even have the strength to raise their heads.

Fortunately, the Jin Yuwei who followed were all fully armed.

Methodically rescue the hung minister.

Yan Rujin kept searching, but after searching around, she couldn't find her great-grandfather or uncle.

Not even the prince's figure was seen.

Regardless of whether it would be contagious, Yu Wenyan hugged her dying father into her arms when she saw Jin Yuwei had just put her father down.
