I traveled through time and became a slave, and the noble lady was obsessed with me

Chapter 361 Hidden Population

"Jim, tie up the horse and follow him down in a moment."

Gu Fu gave the order and took his and Chen Fan's horses away to Jim.

Following Gu Fu into the small villa in front, he took Chen Fan into the basement.

Then he took away the carpet on the floor, walked to the side and opened a secret door.

The entrance to the basement beneath your feet slowly opened.

Gu Fu took a lantern from the shelf next to him, and then waited until Jim came back before taking the two of them down to the basement.

This underground passage is wider than Chen Fan imagined.

It has been repaired and is large enough for two people to walk side by side. There is also a slide next to it, which should be used to hoist food down.

It turns out that these guys are hiding underground in the royal capital. No wonder Gu Fu is so confident.

As long as they were not exposed above, no one would have thought that there was a cave underground.

Moreover, the dwarves are extremely skilled in craftsmanship. The secret door was designed so well that even Chen Fan did not notice it.

Along the way, Gu Fu was also introducing.

"Under here, there was originally an underground waterway built by your human race, but for some unknown reason, it was abandoned below."

"After we took over this place, we kept digging until we found a place that was enough to survive."

Gu Fu did not continue to explain, but Chen Fan still had many doubts in his heart.

Why did these dwarves hide in the royal capital? Did they offend someone?

Although they knew they had gold coins, who helped them buy the usual supplies?

If this small villa often brought in a lot of food and stuff for a long time without a reasonable explanation, it would have been targeted long ago.

Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Chen Fan continued to follow.

The dwarves are planning to turn this place into an underground fortress.

In the middle, there are actually two stone doors, blocking the passage down.

This can only be opened after having a key and talking to the dwarf on duty behind the stone door.

Looking at the stone door, which is more than ten inches thick, it is estimated that if someone wants to force it open, it will take half a day.

He was silent all the way and walked diagonally for a long time.

Chen Fan's sense of space is still good, and he is still counting while walking in his mind.

I have seen the design drawings of some of the sewers in the royal capital.

As a city close to the sea, in order to prevent the capital from being flooded by water, the sewer system was very particular when the city was first built.

Chen Fan knew that the deepest parts of these sewers were 40 meters underground in the city.

With the expansion of the royal capital later, the sewers in the newly expanded areas can be maintained at thirty to forty meters.

However, Chen Fan now estimates that the place where they are is already more than 50 meters deep underground.

Chen Fan could even faintly hear the sound of water flowing in some parts of the walls, and there was a lingering smell of underground water in the air.

This shows that it is very likely that the place separated by this wall is the flooded underground waterway.

These dwarves are really talented and brave people.

Dare to dig out such a world in the intricate sewers.

When the last door was opened, a place that felt somewhat familiar to Chen Fan appeared in front of him.

Colosseum!

That's right, both the corridors and the humid atmosphere here are exactly the same as those under the Colosseum.

If he hadn't noticed that they were all dwarves, Chen Fan would have thought that he was in the wrong place. In front of you, there is a spacious hall in the middle, with a ceiling of more than ten meters high, and there are corridor entrances everywhere next to it.

You can hear the sound of blacksmithing coming from some corridors.

Just by glancing over, I saw at least more than forty dwarves in the hall.

When Gu Fu arrived, the dwarves below all turned their heads this way, their eyes full of respect.

But when they saw Chen Fan next to them, all the dwarves showed fear again in their eyes.

"Don't be afraid, everyone. This is Chen Fan, a friend you can trust..."

Gu Fu probably has something else in mind, probably.

"Whatever everyone should do, keep doing it."

It can be seen that Gu Fu is still very majestic here, and the dwarves continue to do what they were doing.

That means just continuing to lie around and drink.

"I have a total of fifty-three tribesmen here, and they all live with me."

"It's just that we dwarves can all eat and drink, and we need to consume a lot of food every day."

"Chen Fan, I'm going to trouble you next."

Gu Fu was able to bring Chen Fan here not only because they were cooperating, but also because he valued Chen Fan's identity.

The West District Sheriff can manage this district and is the official boss of this group.

With Chen Fan covering him, it would naturally be much easier.

"I think I was asked to come here not just to provide you with food."

Chen Fan narrowed his eyes and glanced forward.

There are more than fifty people here, and they are all pot-bellied men. Just the food provided for one day requires a horse-drawn carriage.

So before Chen Fan came here, who did they rely on to help them transport food?

Among the dwarves, except for Jim, the dwarf characteristics of the others are too obvious.

Gu Fu also knew that Chen Fan was an extremely smart person and knew that there were many things that could not be hidden from him.

Pulling Chen Fan, he came alone to a place where he could talk.

At that moment, he waved his hand and said a name that did not surprise Chen Fan.

"It's the Geese family who are helping us."

I also saw information on Jim just now.

Chen Fan didn't come into contact with many nobles, but he did know one in the Gis family.

When I was trying to assassinate House, I went to the Fusai Palace. At that time, I met the eldest daughter of the Gis family, Giss Cabell, at a banquet.

There might have been a small incident at first, but when the chaos started later, Chen Fan forgot about it.

"I won't hide it from you anymore. The leader of our clan made a huge mistake, which caused all of us Greybeard dwarves to be expelled from the country."

"Finally, we followed the clan leader and came here, and with the help of the noble lady of the Gis family, we built this boundary."

"In exchange for helping the Geese family create a magic tool every month, they can solve our food and clothing problem."

"It was acceptable at first. We homeless guys just want to find a place to survive, so it doesn't matter if we use our skills."

"It's just that later, the patriarch died of illness, and our relationship with the Gis family became worse and worse."

"They also changed the price from one magic tool to three magic tools, including a lot of armor and equipment, making us work in vain."

It could be seen that Gu Fu was very angry and began to talk about what the Gis family had done in front of Chen Fan.
