A knife in love

Chapter 1597

When Li Qiufeng said this, he paused for a while, and then said: "The old thief Liu Sheng didn't get the things in the iron box, so he won't attack us easily. To be on the safe side, we should find the big boat first, and then fight the old thief Liu Sheng to the death!"

Although Murong Danyan was still in doubt, seeing that Li Qiufeng had made up his mind, he had no choice but to nod his head.At this moment Morita Shinobu's figure had disappeared into the cave, only his voice came out from the cave: "Young Xia Li don't have to worry, with your skills, if I do something wrong in the secret passage, you can take my life with one blow. So Li Shaoxia just don't worry."

Li Qiufeng didn't answer, but just strode to the entrance of the cave, and saw a stone step extending straight into the cave.As far as the eye can see, the light of torches can be seen in the cave.Holding the handle of the knife in his right hand, Li Qiufeng walked slowly into the secret passage.With the light from the entrance of the cave, I can see that there are indeed many torches inserted on the stone walls on the left and right sides of the secret passage, and they are all lit at this time.Li Qiufeng reached out to take down a torch and walked straight to the bottom of the cave.Murong Danyan and Qi Jiu followed closely behind him, both of them were extremely vigilant, one clenched the hilt of his sword with his right hand, and the other clenched his fist, if someone sneaked up on him, he would fight with all his strength.

Li Qiufeng quickened his pace, and in a blink of an eye he was only a few feet away from Morita Shinobi and the others, and then slowed down.While walking, he paid attention to the surrounding situation, and saw that this secret passage was about six or seven feet wide, and the stone wall was uneven. It was obviously a natural cave, but it was slightly repaired and turned into an underground passage.After walking down more than fifty stone steps from the entrance of the cave, both feet finally set foot on the flat ground.The stone road under his feet was fairly flat and stretched forward.When standing at the entrance of the cave, the cold air kept gushing out, but after walking to the bottom of the stone steps, I no longer felt the cold air coming.

At the beginning, Li Qiufeng was still calculating in his mind how the road would bend and extend, but after half a stick of incense time, the secret road was winding and winding, and he could no longer judge where he was going.One could only hear the sound of everyone's footsteps colliding and echoing in the secret passage, like thunder.Li Qiufeng thought to himself, Li Kuijiu once said that when the assassins of the Liusheng clan went out to do errands, they had to put on black cloth bags when they left.Judging from the distance, it is about five or six miles from here to Liugong Temple.To dig such a long tunnel, I don't know how much manpower and material resources will be spent.However, judging from the situation in the secret passage, this underground passage was probably formed naturally, and the Yagyu family just modified it a little.

After walking another stick of incense, Li Qiufeng became more and more astonished as he walked.Because the secret path is too tortuous, sometimes it is obviously going forward, but suddenly it makes a big circle and walks in the direction it came from.But after walking for a while, the secret path turned in another direction.In this way, everyone seems to be going around in circles in a maze. If they want to calculate the direction to move forward, it will be difficult to reach the sky.

Murong Danyan followed behind Li Qiufeng, holding the torch in his left hand and the hilt of the sword in his right hand, his eyes kept glancing to the left and right, for fear that the enemy would suddenly rush out and attack him, and he was extremely nervous.At this moment, she only felt that her right arm was tightened, and she was actually held tightly by someone.Murong Danyan was startled, and was about to draw his sword to stab behind him, when Wang Xiaoyu lowered his voice and said to her: "Sister Murong, something is wrong!"

Murong Danyan recognized Wang Xiaoyu's voice, and finally heaved a sigh of relief.She turned her head to look, under the light of the torch, she saw Wang Xiaoyu holding the torch in her right hand, holding her right arm with her left hand, her face was full of horror.Surprised, Murong Danyan gently pulled Wang Xiaoyu forward, and stood shoulder to shoulder with him.While pulling Wang Xiaoyu forward, she lowered her voice and said, "Sister Xiaoyu, what's wrong?"

Wang Xiaoyu looked around and said in a low voice: "Daddy took me to escape from the secret passage that day. I remember that the secret passage was very smooth. At first glance, someone excavated the traces. But the wall of the secret passage in front of us is made of stone, and it is uneven. It looks like a natural stone cave, but someone repaired it a little bit. Just now that old villain Morita Shinobu said that we They all entered the Japanese pirates' lair through this secret path, but the secret path that my father and I walked through is definitely not here. Shinobu Morita is probably lying to us, and he doesn't know where he is going to take us!"

Murong Danyan's heart trembled after hearing Wang Xiaoyu's words.But she thought about it again, the secret passage in the master Wang's room was used for escape, and the person who presided over the digging of the secret passage was probably Morita Shinobi, so the Yagyu family naturally knew the situation of the secret passage well.On that day, the owner of Wang Zhuang took Wang Xiaoyu to escape from Wangjiazhuang. Naturally, Morita Shinobu would not let the two escape, and sent Liu Sheng's killers to ambush at the exit of the secret passage, and captured Wang's father and daughter in one fell swoop.Just now Morita Shinobi said that everyone was escorted to the lair of the Yagyu clan through this secret passage, most likely referring to Xiao Dong, Zhang Shi, shopkeeper Hu and others.And the secret path taken by the Wang family father and daughter may not be this path.As for where the exit of the secret path is, Wang Xiaoyu doesn't know.Only by asking the owner of Wang Zhuang, maybe you can know.

Thinking of this, Murong Danyan whispered to Wang Xiaoyu: "Sister Xiaoyu, the most important thing for us right now is to find the big ship as soon as possible. This old fellow Morita Shinobu is indeed full of tricks, but he must listen to Liu Shengzongyan's orders after all. And Liu Sheng Zongyan is determined to get the things on the boat, so he won't kill us for a while. It doesn't matter whether this secret road is the one that Xiaoyu and Uncle Wang passed by. We have to find the big boat first. , and then do the calculations."

Wang Xiaoyu was startled and uncertain, and the more he walked, the more uneasy he became.She originally wanted to ask the owner Wang for clarification, but when she walked into the cave, although she pulled the owner Wang to follow Murong Danyan closely, but Xiao Dong, Zhang Shi, shopkeeper Hu and the others were all in the same mind. Everyone wanted to get as close to Li Qiufeng as possible, so they rushed forward desperately, and even blocked the owner of Wang Zhuang behind.Wang Xiaoyu was shocked, and was about to meet the owner of the Wang villa, but saw Qi Jiu walking beside the owner of the Wang villa, and waved to Wang Xiaoyu, indicating that he would protect the owner of the Wang villa, Wang Xiaoyu need not worry.Wang Xiaoyu knew that although Qi Jiu was young, but his martial arts were extremely high, and his thoughts were very meticulous. With him guarding Wang Zhuangzhu, no one would hurt Wang Zhuangzhu, so he was relieved.At this time, he wanted to talk to the owner of the Wang Zhuang, but the two were separated by five or six zhang, and there were Xiao Dong, Zhang Shi, shopkeeper Hu and others in between.In desperation, Wang Xiaoyu had no choice but to continue walking forward with Murong Danyan.

Everyone walked for another stick of incense, Li Qiufeng thought to himself, after entering the cave, it has been more than an hour since they walked, this secret path is winding, and it is already impossible to tell where they are going.However, according to common sense, it should have arrived at Liugong Temple in just over half an hour.But Shinobu Morita, who was walking in front, showed no sign of stopping at all. He still walked forward quickly with several men in Tsing Yi holding torches.Li Qiufeng thought to himself, is it possible that the exit of this secret path is not at the Liugong Temple, but all the way to the coast?
