Concubine Huang said she wanted to leave

Chapter 674 Entering the Secret Passage
Although she smiled, there was a bit of bitterness in her smile.

However, Shang Kelan didn't look at her again. After withdrawing his gaze from her, Shang Kelan walked down the secret passage.

boom!
As soon as he entered the secret passage, the secret passage door was closed instantly.

Slowly, the Babao Pavilion trembled and moved back to its original position, and everything returned to the way it was before, as if no one had been here.

Hua Ling watched Shang Kelan's figure completely disappear from the Rongyuan Hall, and his eyes gradually showed a bit of blankness: "Actually, none of those who died in the secret passage would blame me, right? After all, I gave the It gave them hope of escaping..."

She murmured in a low voice, she didn't stay in Rongyuan Hall for long, and soon left quietly.

Wei Jin will definitely find out about this woman's disappearance, so she needs to go back from a place where no one is around. Besides, Hua Ling acted cautiously enough to never tell anyone about her coming to Rongyuantang. Concubine Li didn't know either.

At this time, in the dark passage.

I don’t know how long it’s been since the secret passage had seen the light of day again. After Shang Kelan came in, the musty and damp smell in the air hit his face, especially after the secret passage door was closed, a sense of suffocation was felt, and the oxygen in the air quickly It became a little thinner.

Holding the torch in her hand, Shang Kelan stopped carefully when she walked up the stairs to the entrance of the corridor, and took off the white jade pendant from her ear.

Whoosh!
Throwing the pendant on the floor of the front corridor, the white jade pendant collided with the floor, but only made a light sound, and did not touch any mechanism.

Is there no mechanism on this corridor?

Shang Kelan's eyes flickered, and he stepped forward tentatively.

The snow-white embroidered shoes stepped on the ground, the air was still very quiet, there was no sound, and the surroundings looked very quiet and there was no danger.

But it is such an environment, but it is easier for people to relax their vigilance.

The first step was fine, Shang Kelan then took the second and third steps...

"Crack!"

Suddenly, the sound of an organ triggering sounded, as if it sounded from the front to the back, and the originally dark tunnel was lit up at this moment.

Originally there were candlesticks on both sides of the wall, but there was no fire in these candlesticks. After the clicking sound came from the front just now, these candlesticks lit up one by one.

Shang Kelan's expression tightened, not daring to be negligent, she quickly dodged and hid on the wall beside her.

But it seemed that she was a little too sensitive, the surroundings were obviously only lit by candlelight, the corridor was instantly illuminated brightly, no organs were opened again, and there was no danger in the corridor.

It seems that everything is just because Shang Kelan is too sensitive and nervous, and the outside world connected by this secret passage is actually the way of life!
Suddenly, after realizing this, Shang Kelan, who was leaning against the wall with his back against the wall, couldn't help but feel a little happy, and there was a clearness in his originally dark and moist eyes.

It's as if the dry grass suddenly met the rain.

Immediately, Shang Kelan no longer hesitated, closed the torch and put it in his arms, then ran towards the front of the corridor along the direction of these candlesticks.

This promenade is located deep underground in Rongyuan Hall, and the inside is very complicated.

Shang Kelan followed the light from these candlesticks and walked forward for a long time before he felt something was wrong.

From the front of the corridor, there was an extremely strong heat flow, as if something was continuously burning.

Suddenly, Shang Kelan stopped and looked at a depression in front of him.

This depression is the end of the corridor.

The heat flow is constantly gushing out from a spring in the depression.

There is a layer of dim yellow stagnant water in the depression, and the temperature is not very warm, which makes people unconsciously think of the hot spring room in Weijin's front yard.

Thinking about it carefully, the path that was bypassed under the long corridor just now is actually going around the square of the hot spring room, and the distance from Rongyuan Hall to the hot spring room is actually the same as the distance she just walked from the entrance of the corridor to this depression.

In other words, is this secret passage not a way of life at all, but a place leading to the eye of the hot spring pool?

In an instant, a strong sense of disappointment welled up in my heart.

Shang Kelan was stunned for a while before looking away from the depression, and shook his head, muttering to himself in disappointment: "So this road leads to the eye of the hot spring pool? In other words, Wei Jin is very likely to be on top right now."

I don't know that I touched the mechanism below, if something happens, will Wei Jin know?

But let’s ignore that for now, since there is a hot spring pool in this place, it may be connected to some underground river, and maybe she can escape from the underground river.

Trapped in the prince's mansion and waiting to die, I'm afraid that Wei Jin will kill her when his brain twitches. In order to survive, escape, see Jin Yantang and the child, and solve Da Zhou's predicament, she will do it no matter what. get out!
With such firm determination, Shang Kelan walked towards the depression ahead.

Stepping into the depression, there was a pitch black place in front of her. There was no candlestick at all, and there was no light at all. If she landed on the shore later, she would still need to rely on a torch to illuminate herself.

In this depression, the dim yellow water near the spring emits a scorching temperature, almost scorching the skin of a person!

Shang Kelan couldn't help frowning and moaning, but she could only touch the wall and speed up her pace.

But the bottom of this depression is not smooth, and there are some stone fragments inside, and the sand and sand rushed into the soles of Shang Kelan's feet along the embroidered shoes, grinding the soles of her feet to a little blood.

The embroidered shoes didn't take a few steps under the water before they were scratched by sharp stone fragments.

It took Shang Kelan a quarter of an hour for the short distance of tens of meters, and it was even a little too much. He was pale, and his whole body felt a little drained.

Looking at her lower body, it was obvious that it was already soaked, especially those feet, the blood was red under the soles, it was shocking to look at.

Fortunately, these stone fragments are not poisonous, and to Shang Kelan, they are just skin wounds.

Taking out the torch and illuminating the dark passage in front of him, Shang Kelan proceeded cautiously.

Even though she couldn't hold it anymore, she still didn't walk against the wall.

Because she didn't dare to relax her vigilance, maybe if the wall was touched, what mechanism would she touch?

The entire underground passage was pitch black and very depressing. The further you walked forward, the colder the front was, which was completely different from the warm feeling behind.

Suddenly, just as Shang Kelan was walking forward cautiously, he kicked something soft under his feet, which seemed to be a human leg.

It's just that she didn't have time to think too much, so she accidentally fell to the ground in a hurry!
"Well!"

She couldn't help crying out in pain, and her wrist wiped the floor of the secret passage. Although the pain was weak, it hurt even more.

The torch fell out of her hand, and the faint light of the fire illuminated the person who tripped her...
