Chapter 310 Confusion

Tuoba Tao was sitting in the handsome tent, the desk was full of court officials' memorials sent from Pingcheng.But he doesn't seem to care about any of this.

In Tuoba Tao's view, the DPRK and China are still relatively stable, Hanchen and Xianbei nobles restrict each other, although there are occasional disputes, but in fact nothing major happens.These memorials are nothing more than they have nothing to do, they beat around the bush to complain and frame themselves.

What Tuoba Tao really cares about right now is all on this bamboo slip in his hand.

This is the memorial sent by Xi Jin.Xi Jin led [-] troops to besiege Chang'an. Although his original intention was to delay Helian Ding's rush to help Tong Wancheng, Tuoba Tao never thought that Helian Ding was such a difficult nut to crack.

Xi Jin took the order of being able to surround and not fight, but still almost suffered Helian Ding's loss several times.

A few days ago, Xi Jin led people to raid several small villages and towns near Chang'an, temporarily solving the problem of food and grass.

Although the casualties of the soldiers who besieged Chang'an exceeded expectations, Helian was finally surrounded.Now as long as the communication between Tongwan City and Chang'an is cut off, it can be said that the victory is sure.

Tuoba Tao was thinking about it when he heard Hua Mulan outside the tent say, "Your Majesty, there is news from a spy."

"Bring it in." Tuoba Tao put down the bamboo slip in his hand.

Hua Mulan lifted the curtain, and presented a small sheepskin scroll to Tuoba Tao with both hands.

Tuoba Tao took a quick glance and said with a sneer, "He Lianding wrote a letter asking Emperor Xia not to open the city gate no matter what. This Helian family can be regarded as a sensible person. It's a pity that he is far away in Chang'an, so he can't solve the problem." Unifying the predicament."

Hua Mulan was a little worried about Tan Yaoyu.She followed Tuoba Tao and had some understanding of the layout of Yaoyu.It's just that she still thinks that Tan Yaoyu is too courageous, that's an enemy camp!Running in so grandly, is there really no danger?

She tentatively asked Tuoba Tao, "Your Majesty, three days have passed since the last letter of smoke. We have used up all the dead bodies pretending to be plagues. What should we do next?"

Tuoba Tao habitually tapped his fingers on the table and said, "Let everyone prepare the yellow gardenias for face painting. He Lianchang is not a patient person, and it will be about a few days... Double the number of spies in the direction of Chang'an, and Helian Ding must not let any news pass into Wancheng!"

Hua Mulan nodded, secretly thinking that if the city was broken, she would find a way to rush in first, who knows if He Lianchang would jump over the wall in a hurry.

——Boundary——

Three days ago, after the door of the underground palace was closed, panic for no reason crawled all over her body like insects and ants along Yao Yu's feet.

She doesn't like dungeons.

In order to monitor her conveniently, the door of the underground palace was always open.Now inviting rain to retreat as an excuse, the stone gate was closed heavily.

The dark underground palace gave Yao Yu an illusion, as if she had returned to the dark place under the Tan family.And Zimo was not by her side at this time, as if the only thing that could make her feel at ease had been taken away, Yao Yu realized that some fears had already lingered in her bones.

"Find it quickly. There are only three days. You must find the entrance to the secret room within three days."

Tan Yaoyu couldn't help talking to himself, as if talking to himself like this could reduce a little loneliness.

But when two days passed and she still had no clue, Tan Yaoyu felt that the tension in her mind was about to break at any moment.

I don't know if it was her illusion, but when she was inside the altar these two days, she always felt that the four walls of the altar seemed to be shrinking constantly, as if to trap her inside.

But when she measured the length of each wall with the number of steps again, she found that the size of the altar had not changed at all.

Tan Yaoyu really didn't want to stay in the altar anymore, and simply walked up and down the long corridor like a wandering spirit.It seems that only in this way, those memories that can't help but drive her crazy will be left behind and unable to catch up with her.

"This is the retribution of being greedy for money. I dug such a big hole for myself to jump in. What's the difference between being trapped here and being buried alive?"

She was dazed by the candlelight in the aisle.On the white wall is clearly his own shadow, but it is haunted by ghosts and ghosts again and again, which makes Tan Yaoyu have the urge to run, to see if he can shake off the shadow too.

She started talking to herself again, "Tan Yaoyu, you are not crazy yet. When you become crazy, run as hard as you can to get rid of the shadow."

The bull-head lamps with blood-red eyes and mouths on the wall seemed to be staring at her, making Yao Yu feel inexplicably suffocated.Seeing nothing in front of her would not disturb her, Yao Yu simply closed her eyes and walked forward counting her steps.

When Yao Yu followed Helian Chang down the underground palace for the first time, she counted her steps cautiously.

From the entrance of the underground palace to the square room of the altar, there are a total of [-] steps.She has repeatedly measured the size of the altar, and it is exactly twenty paces.Yao Yu counted his steps, planning to turn around and walk back when he reached [-] steps.

Because she was very confident in her own calculations, Tan Yaoyu couldn't help but let out a "huh" when she hit the wall after walking [-] steps.

She opened her eyes and adjusted to the light of the candle for a while, only to realize that she had indeed bumped into the white wall at the end of the corridor.

"Did I count wrong? Could it be that I've stayed here for two days and I can't even count."

Yao Yu turned around, since he had nothing to do anyway, he walked again, "Could it be that my steps are different in size? No, I obviously walked according to the step width of the Kunlun formation."

This time she deliberately controlled her steps, but when her feet reached the thousand and twenty-three steps again, Yao Yu could clearly feel a chill emanating from the white wall in front of her.

Tan Yaoyu opened his eyes and looked at the white wall in front of him suspiciously, "Did this wall move forward? Or am I delusional again?"

Yao Yu irritatedly slammed his head against the stone wall, trying to wake himself up.But Baibi made a very diffuse "dong" sound after she bumped into it forcefully.

Yao Yu was stunned for a moment, and then came to his senses.She quickly took out her dagger and tapped on the white wall at the end of the corridor, "It's empty!"

Zhao Yu was pleasantly surprised and ran back to the altar door.

The door to the altar opened in a wall which joined the white wall at the end of the passage.It is precisely because of this wall that Yao Yu has not noticed for so long that there is a slight difference in depth between the square room of the altar and the white wall at the end of the aisle.

The white wall at the end is a blindfold!Tan Yaoyu became excited, "This is actually not the end of the aisle!" She then slapped her head again, "The exit of the underground palace and the square room of the altar are all reinforced with bluestone slabs. That's right!"

　Facts have proved that I will never be able to write a horror novel in my life, and I was startled by this little content, and I was shocked by the leaking toilet!
