Chapter 367 Heroes Meeting (15)

The underground chamber was silent for a moment. Unexplained looks from all parties fell on Wen Jisheng, either questioning, confused, or hesitant.

At this time, Senior Sun, who was traveling with him, raised his arms and said, "I can explain this for you. Mr. Jiang has already explained to me just now that there are actually many institutions throughout the villa, all set up by Master Jiang."

Someone asked in confusion: "Really? But when Old Villa Master Lan was still there, we never heard of any institutions in Honghu Villa. Maybe it's rude to say this - but Master Jiang is so good, why is he in his own house?" There are so many tricks on the territory?

"Are you guarding against someone?"

I have never heard of anyone doing these things in their own home, and there is no war. Does Honghu Villa still rely on these institutions to guard against enemies? This is too strange.

Everyone looked at Wen Jisheng in unison, with probing eyes.

"You all don't know, but all the mechanisms in the village were set up by my father after he succeeded the village owner." Wen Jisheng said: "According to what my father said, these secret passages are to resist the invasion of foreign enemies in the future.

"My father said this was a precautionary measure. But I don't know why he was worried about it. Maybe..." He smiled and said, "Maybe my father had anticipated that there would be today's disputes in Honghu Villa, so he wanted to take precautions." just in case."

Hearing this, everyone present had different expressions.

Someone secretly muttered: "That's true... Could it be that, as Jiang Lan said, Master Jiang has a guilty conscience, so he secretly takes more precautions? And it's his own people who are taking precautions!"

"This is somewhat reasonable - just now Jiang Lan also said that Master Jiang has always had ulterior motives. Maybe Jiang Lan didn't lie? It's just that there is no evidence."

Some people frowned and advised: "It's not appropriate for us to speculate on Master Jiang like this? After all, today is all thanks to the mechanism prepared by Master Jiang in advance. Otherwise, how could we easily escape? Everyone." Guys, stop talking."

Then everyone looked at Wen Jisheng with embarrassment and said, "Sorry, our words were unintentional and not malicious speculation. Please don't blame Mr. Jiang."

Wen Jisheng smiled and said: "Where. This secret room is so secret that even I don't know about it, let alone you. It is reasonable for you to have doubts in your hearts."

Senior Sun said "Huh" in surprise and asked, "Does Mr. Jiang not know the origin of this study?"

Wen Jisheng shook his head: "This junior really doesn't know."

Someone laughed: "This is strange. Even the dignified young master of the village doesn't know that there is a secret room hidden under the Honghu Villa. What kind of trick is Master Jiang playing?"

"This..." Wen Jisheng said, "I'm afraid I can only know the answer by asking my father."

Everyone who heard this fell silent for a moment.

Their eyes changed when they looked at Wen Jisheng:

——Is Mr. Jiang really ignorant or pretending to be ignorant? Isn't it just pretending? Could this be a play put on by the Jiang family and his son, and they were all fooled?

——What are you pretending to be? You, your father and your son, plan to take Honghu Villa as your own. You have the final say over the entire Honghu Villa. How can you still know what is going on in this secret room?

——Tsk, Jiang Yin, Mr. Jiang, and Jiang Lan... none of them are fuel-efficient! It's abominable to say that you, the Jiang family, are dog-eating dogs. If you don't solve the problem behind closed doors, why are you dragging outsiders into the situation? Damn, it’s really hateful!

……

Wen Jisheng saw the different expressions on these people's faces, and knew in his heart that what they were slandering at this moment was not good.

But he doesn't care what they think of him. Today he only needs to play the role of "young master of the Jiang family", and the rest is redundant and has nothing to do with him.

After everyone pondered for a while, Senior Sun was the first to break the silence:

"Don't talk so much. Now we are trapped here, with murderers chasing us in front and behind us. For the sake of everyone's safety, it is better to see if there are other exits around us, or find another way to make a living."

Although they were suspicious of Jiang Yin and Wen Jisheng, it was not a good time to settle matters now, so they agreed to Senior Sun's suggestion. It was important to find a way out first. So everyone took the oil lamp in the secret room for lighting and searched everywhere by the light of the oil lamp.

A quarter of an hour later——

"We looked around and it was just an ordinary study, nothing special."

"Yes, I haven't found any mechanism. Apart from some literary classics, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, there is nothing else here."

Senior Sun held up the oil lamp and looked inside, saying: "Apart from the secret passage we came from, there is only this narrow secret passage in front that can leave this secret room. But I don't know where this secret passage leads to. "

The others looked at each other in shock: "But except for the secret passage in front of us, we have no way to go."

"Don't worry about where it leads, so what if you just go in and take a look? Otherwise, when the fire comes over, we will also be suffocated to death here. We can't sit still and wait to die."

Everyone agreed.

Senior Sun said: "Okay, then let me take the lead!"

After saying that, he held the lantern and entered the secret passage first.

The secret passage is dark and narrow, allowing only one person to pass through. Fortunately, the narrow part is very short. After passing through this narrow space, there is a wide corridor.

There are various potted plants on both sides of the corridor, which are lush and green. It is obvious that someone has carefully maintained them from time to time. And when everyone groped their way inside, they could see a lot of side rooms on the left and right sides.

Wen Ji's sound lit up the lantern at the corner of the passage leading to the wing, and the space suddenly became brighter.

They looked left and right, feeling surprised.

"This is like an underground palace."

There were many people exploring along the passages extending in all directions on the corridor, and the crowd dispersed.

At this time, Wen Jisheng and Ban Xiyu slowly followed behind.

"here……"

Wen Jisheng cautiously speculated: "Jiang Yin has never mentioned the secret room under the villa to me. He concealed it so much. Maybe this place has something to do with Chongwei Wenmei."

Ban Xiyu also had this speculation: "If it is as we expected, then there must be evidence here that Jiang Yin organized Wen Mei and brought harm to the martial arts world. As long as we get this evidence, we can overthrow Jiang Yin!"

Wen Jisheng's eyes lit up: "Look for it first!"

"Ok!"

The two of them did what they said and immediately checked all the rooms one by one.

At this time, Senior Sun shouted from the front: "Everyone, come and take a look, there is a meeting hall here!"

Hearing this, Ban Xiyu and Wen Jisheng looked at each other, and then followed the sound to take a look.

I saw that at the end of the corridor was a meeting hall that could accommodate a hundred people. There is a tea room and a dining room for banquets in the hall, and there are wing rooms on the left and right sides.

There is a map directly in front of the meeting hall, which includes the territories of Daxuan and Rongguo, and even the geographical territory of the Wuyue tribe's activities.

Some people looked around in amazement and exclaimed with doubts: "What on earth is this place?!"
