From the sword of the third master

Chapter 57 Self-taught
He said he was sleeping by himself, but Chen Sheng rolled his eyes and walked to the lady's room.

The eldest lady did not rest at this time, she was also waiting for him.

"Master is back?"

Chen Sheng smiled back and nodded.

"There is iced sour plum soup in the room, would you like a bowl?" The lady got up from the bed and put down the embroidery in her hand.

"Okay, let's have a bowl."

The eldest lady has been with Tiehu for the longest time, and she has experienced a lot of wind and rain, and her determination is not comparable to those little girls.Her face was peaceful and she smiled peacefully.

More than anything, the man is back and looking unscathed.

As for what happened outside, she didn't ask at all.

Chen Sheng found a high-ranking chair and sat in, took the sour plum soup casually, with a very happy expression.

There are quite a few women in the family now, but only when he is with the eldest lady can he get real relaxation, the kind of relaxation from top to bottom, from the inside to the outside.

"Adai."

"how?"

The eldest lady has been silently by her side, and when she heard Chen Sheng calling her baby name, she said softly: "If the master is tired, go take a shower, and I will give you a pinch later."

Chen Sheng shook his head: "I have something else to say."

"My lord, do as you say."

"Is there a place to hide people at home?"

"Why do you think that our house is so big, it's so easy to hide someone."

"No, you don't understand me. The place I'm looking for must be hidden from anyone but you, or only a few."

"..."

The lady didn't ask the specific reason, but thought for a moment and said: "According to what the master said, the woodshed and the vegetable cellar are definitely not good. I remember that there was a dry well in the garden. It was sealed because it couldn't get water. Knowing this There are not many people involved."

Chen Sheng was refreshed: "What's the situation outside the dry well?"

"Oh, there are some flowers and plants growing all over the place. It's hard to find if you don't pay attention."

What if you pay attention?Will it be revealed?

——The so-called people have no long-term worries, but they must have near-term worries.With Murong Qiudi's method and wisdom, how long can Xie Xiaofeng hide if he keeps searching like this?

Chen Sheng is very passive now.

After thinking about it, it seemed that the whole Mianyang city might not be safe except for himself!
Chen Sheng is also a sub-ruler after all, and Murong Qiudi always wants to save face, and probably won't send people to surround their house and search every inch.As long as you can hide this "little spy" from Qingqing, there will be no big problem.

"The dry well can be ruled out, Madam should think about it again."

"Yes."

The eldest lady was quiet for a while, then a bit of struggle suddenly flashed across her face, she hesitated to speak.

Chen Sheng asked strangely: "Adai, is there anything we can't talk about?"

The eldest lady bit her lips: "I remembered, there is indeed another place that meets the master's standards, and no one knows about it. But this place is related to Tiehu, I'm afraid you won't be happy to hear it."

"It's related to Iron Tiger, why am I not happy?"

"After all, this used to be Tiehu's house, and all the sisters were his wives and concubines. They always talk about Tiehu on weekdays. I'm afraid of the master..."

Chen Sheng held the lady's hand, and said with a smile: "The master is not so narrow-minded. Tiehu is my elder brother. I don't even have time to respect and miss him, so why would I have messy thoughts? Just don't worry."

The eldest lady stared into his eyes: "Is the master telling the truth?"

Chen Sheng said seriously: "It's absolutely true!"

"Okay, the master will come with me."

……

The lady brought Chen Sheng to an unexpected place.

Iron Tiger's study.

She lit a candle with a torch, and said quietly: "A few years ago, when he bought this house, Tie Hu once said that in case of unforeseen circumstances, he must leave a way out for our family."

"What kind of back road?"

"typical."

It's done!
Chen Sheng was both surprised and delighted: "Where is the tunnel?"

The lady said: "Master is a rare smart person in the world, why don't you find it yourself?"

"Hey, madam wants to test me? OK."

Chen Sheng got up his spirits and walked around while looking around.

The size of this study is compact, and the interior furnishings are not too many. It looks clear at a glance, and it seems that there is no secret at all.

There is only one bill.

An armchair.

A bookshelf.

An arhat bed.

The rest are small gadgets, such as pens, ink, paper and inkstones, vase decorations, various ornamental potted plants, etc. In addition, there are a few calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, and the themes are nothing more than common poems or pictures of ladies.

Authentic, authentic, as the name suggests, the entrance should be on the ground, right?
Chen Sheng used the most stupid method, directly put the long sword under his feet, "thump, thump", and struck continuously.

His hearing is pretty amazing.It is not an exaggeration to say that even mosquitoes flying around can tell the male from the female. If there is really a secret hidden on the ground, it will naturally be impossible to hide it.

But an embarrassing thing happened, Chen Sheng knocked for a long time, and found that the echoes were rather dull, and they seemed to be solid.

The eldest lady still pursed her lips at first, but when she saw that he actually changed his target and began to knock on the wall, she knew that the secret had been exposed.

"Back then, Tiehu remodeled his home, and built several other houses behind the study, leaving a certain space between the houses. This design is very clever, and it cannot be seen from the outside at all."

Chen Sheng said: "That empty space is the entrance of the tunnel?"

"Ah."

As soon as the words were finished, the scabbard hit a picture of a maid, "Boom", the voice that came back this time was completely opposite, and the truth finally came to light.

Chen Sheng laughed.

He picked the picture aside and found that there was a wooden plank behind it, the color was similar to the height of the wall.I pushed it with my hand, but didn't push it, and then tried to swipe to the side, and suddenly, a black hole jumped out.

"Tsk tsk, well-intentioned, Tiehu is really careful."

The eldest lady had complicated eyes and did not speak.

"Adai, pass me the booklet, the master wants to go in and have a look."

"Oh."

Chen Sheng suddenly turned his face away, and hurriedly explained: "Blow out the candle, and you stand guard by the door yourself, and don't let anyone approach. Please remember, no one is allowed."

The eldest lady nodded: "I understand."

The entrance of the cave was not high, so Chen Sheng climbed up easily, and a cool breath followed.He took a special sniff and found that the smell was quite fresh, and the bottom had obviously been ventilated.

He held up the fire pocket to check, and there was indeed a gap between the walls, with a width of about four feet.

The entrance is made of stone steps, extending down step by step.

Chen Sheng jumped in.

The two sides of the entire tunnel are symmetrical, the top of the head is arched, and the wall is covered with dense shovel marks, and the left and right are very regular. It is obvious that Tiehu has exerted unimaginable strength.

Chen Sheng bowed his back and continued to grope forward.He inadvertently saw that some hollow copper pipes were inserted into the top of the head, and the angles were different. This should be the source of fresh air, and the design was really good.

After walking about four or five feet away, the front suddenly opened up, and a brand new space appeared, and I was finally able to stand upright.

The shape here is like a lying "egg". It is half an arm taller than Chen Sheng's. The area should be as big as a bedroom. There is another exit on the opposite side. I don't know where it will end up and how long it will be.

Several "small potholes" were opened on the wall of this "bedroom", and there were oil lamps inside. Chen Sheng lit the oil lamps one by one.

On the left is a plank bed, fully paved and covered.

On the right side, there are a lot of things piled up, dazzling: what water bladders, bacon, dry food, spirits, clothes, coils...

What the hell!

What Tiehu dug is both a tunnel and a secret room, and he can run and hide at the same time. It is unknown how long such a huge project lasted. His perseverance is really admirable!
The following question comes, where is the export design?

Chen Sheng held the torch and got into the passage on the other side.

After the passage exited from the "bedroom", it suddenly began to turn, it was no longer straight, and seemed to change direction.

After walking another four or five feet, the terrain finally slowly extended upwards.

There is a baffle at the exit, which is square. The design idea is no longer to move left and right. Just push it up, and it should be able to open.

Chen Sheng didn't dare to move casually, he pricked up his ears and listened.

Well, it was quiet outside, as if there was no sound.

After hesitating for a moment, he stretched out his arm and pushed hard...

I never expected that this place turned out to be a house, the exit was hidden in a vegetable field, and the baffles were covered with soil and tender green vegetables.

Chen Sheng crawled outside and quickly started searching.

Strange, this place obviously has all kinds of traces of life, why is it empty, and no one can be seen?

Could it be that Tiehu has already bought it, and will come over from time to time as a disguise?

Very likely!
Chen Sheng observed the environment, and saw Tiehu's compound in the west direction, which was separated from his residence by a row, maybe ten feet away.

Dig the exit to someone else's house, and the other person's house is still an "empty shell". Needless to say, Brother Hu is awesome!
Chen Sheng was very careful, slowly restored the exit, and then slipped outside to familiarize himself with the terrain.

When he walked around to the back of the house, he made another major discovery.

"Crash..."

Under the bright moonlight, there is a river on the back, and the water flow is quite fast.

Standing by the small river, Chen Sheng grinned.

The hero sees the same thing, he understands Tiehu's thinking.

——Where there is water, there must be fishing boats. If one day encounters danger and has to go, after coming out of the tunnel, find any boat and row out. Who can catch up in a short while?
such a pity!
Now that the Sri Lankan has gone, this secret road will be cheaper for Xie Xiaofeng.

But unfortunately, the current Mianyang City has been surrounded like an iron barrel, and Xie Xiaofeng can only be temporarily hidden, and it is basically impossible to get out.

……

The next morning.

Chen Sheng reported to the front hall on time to meet Murong Qiudi.

Miss Murong was still the same, she didn't talk nonsense, and sent another envelope to everyone randomly.

When I went out, I saw it read:

——Check all the rivers in the city and search for ships.

"..."

Miss Murong was worried that someone would take Xie Xiaofeng to "recover wounds" on the water. She counted all the possibilities, what a genius!
Chen Sheng held the envelope and couldn't help shaking his head.

If a person puts all his energy into thinking about this and that every day, then he must not live long, and his life must be very tiring.

"Boss, how do we search today?" Zhang San rested all night, refreshed.

"Look for yourself." Chen Sheng followed the same old routine, handing the envelope to the other party happily, ready to continue dawdling.

"Madam is really powerful, brothers, let's go!"

"Get on the horse..."

During the spare time on the way, Zhang San suddenly suppressed his voice and told Chen Sheng what happened last night.

"I suspect that Ma'am is afraid that the big boss will be slack, so she wants to ask about the situation and use my mouth to urge her."

"Oh?"

Chen Sheng pretended to be casual and asked, "How did you answer?"

Zhang San patted his chest: "How could my younger brother betray my elder brother? I told Madam at the time that the big boss is so diligent that he is so busy all day long that he doesn't even have time to drink his saliva."

"..."

Chen Sheng's eyes were full of gold stars, and he almost fell off his horse.

What a clever ghost, why do you want to kill me?

The so-called abnormality must have a demon, Murong Qiudi still doesn't know what kind of appearance he is?The slacker has suddenly become diligent, the problem is definitely not small!

Hey!
……

A busy day passed quickly, and the whole search and arrest ended in failure.

"Everyone has worked hard, please come over on time tomorrow, and we will discuss again."

"Yes."

The scene of yesterday was repeated again, the brothers were downcast, the female devil was as calm as before, and finally everyone dispersed.

Just as Chen Sheng walked out of the mansion, he found that many carriages passed by suddenly. The carriages were all covered with black cloth. He didn't know what was inside. Judging from the direction they were walking, it seemed that they were also the mansion.

"Wang Wang!"

"Wang Wang Wang Wang..."

Chen Sheng's expression changed.

Barking?
With so many dogs transported here, it's not even necessary to think about it, it must be for the purpose of arresting Xie Xiaofeng.When it comes to search ability, humans are of course inferior to dogs, Xie Xiaofeng may not be able to hide it!
Chen Sheng stood on the side of the road thinking quietly, his brows knit together.

Right now, the city is full of Tianzun's people, and there are hundreds of posts in the open and in the dark. Even if he is a master of lightness kung fu, it is impossible to steal Xie Xiaofeng out in the dark. The situation can be described as dire.

"Forget it, it's a big deal, come back and wash it up... vomit..."

Chen Sheng gritted his teeth, and quickly made up his mind, his face full of sadness and joy.

at dawn.

The sky will be bright.

Like a ghost, Chen Sheng floated out of Qingqing's room without touching the ground.

"Huh, huh, bad guys..."

Hehe, listening to this movement, she really fell asleep, and she slept soundly.

Chen Sheng stretched out his hand, opened the window inch by inch, and finally got in.

If drilling windows is a kind of talent, then Mr. Chen must have the four characters "No. [-] in the world" shining golden on his head.

Chen Sheng slipped to Qingqing's side, and stroked the "Yuzhen acupoint" on the back of her head.

"Gulu Gulu, hehe..."

Suddenly, Qingqing's snoring became louder, and she couldn't even speak in her sleep.

Chen Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly searched everywhere, and finally found what he needed from her closet.

—a small box.

There are all kinds of equipment in the box: small combs, small mirrors, small scissors, small blades, various miniature brushes, and various colorful bottles and jars.

Chen Sheng grandly sat beside her, crossed his legs, and even started to disguise himself!

If Qingqing saw it, her eyes would probably be shattered.

Because Chen Sheng's movements are faster, more skilled, and more perceptive than hers!

"Hey, if you don't have any skills these days, it's really hard to get along..."
