Chapter 183: Inside the Bureau, Outside the Bureau, Central Bureau (5)
Zong Zheng came to the bottom of the corridor, where the candlelight was obviously brighter, but the bottom was empty and there was nothing.
After looking around, knocking on the wall, and searching carefully, Zong Zheng did not find any clues to the mechanism. Suddenly, he noticed four raised small stones at the bottom of the wall that were easily overlooked, and thought to himself: "This is the mechanism."
Looking at the four raised stones, Zong Zheng touched and investigated them, and couldn't help frowning, "There are four stones here, each of which can be pushed in, but he doesn't know what the mystery of this mechanism is?"
Just as I was about to try to push one of them at will, I suddenly retracted my hand and thought to myself, "No, the time has not come, so I can't act rashly!"
Instead, he estimated the time in his mind. In such a dark dungeon, there was no object of reference time. Zong Zheng had no concept of time for a while. He only remembered that he had slept for a while after coming in, but he didn't know how long he had slept.
However, he believed that she would come to meet him on time, and he firmly believed in this.
Analyzing the situation in front of me, although Zhu Yunshi had previously assisted the information, she had never entered the dungeon, and this dungeon was far more complicated than she thought. The iron chains on them and the mechanisms in front of them were all beyond my expectations.
Time is particularly tight, which makes Zong Zheng feel very stressed. Fortunately, this plan has a safe and reliable way out.
Alibu Ge also encountered a problem. His army was blocked by a gully and a slope in Xinburi's canyon.
Time passed by minute by minute, which made Ali Buge very uneasy. He could not think of the mystery of how Kublai Khan's army passed. He had no choice but to order people to go forward and dig the soil of the earth city to fill the ditches.
After more than an hour, with the efforts of hundreds of soldiers to dig the ground, this obstacle was finally opened up. Alibuge led the entire army to embark on the road of pursuit, and the advance troops still explored the way first.
The news that the three hundred crossbowmen in Xinbri was wiped out without a single arrow soon reached Kublai Khan, and Siba was shocked by this unexpected situation.
According to Siba's plan, he wanted to block Alibuge's way out with ditches and dirt cities at the exit of the canyon, and then let the crossbowmen who had ambushed in advance shoot arrows and ambush them high and low on both sides of the canyon, causing Alibuge's front army to suffer a major setback, so as to destroy the army's spirit and delay the pursuit.
However, this abnormal news obviously disrupted the deployment, and he couldn't figure out what had been born in the canyon.
Fortunately, the ditch and earthen city prepared in advance can temporarily block this black torrent, but Siba knew that they would soon chase after him.
In terms of time, Alibuge avoided the ambush, and the time to catch up will naturally be earlier than Siba expected. Therefore, Siba immediately suggested speeding up the marching and rushing to the second place to block Alibuge in advance.
This is like fishing. Siban is well-managed. It can not only allow Alibu Ge to see the possibility of chasing, but also always keep his army at a safe chasing distance from his army.
In a blink of an eye, this game of pursuit and being pursued, lured and being lured was in a dark game.
When another night comes, when the blackness of the sky wraps around the vast earth again, nothing will be as calm as before. Perhaps, a huge black storm is coming, it will face the test of red blood.
The Helin Camp was still as calm as before, and the soldiers guarding and patrolling became prey for potential hunters. Sadly, they had not yet realized the existence of hunters before the killing began.
"It's on fire!" At the corner of Lin Daying, the fires surged into the sky, and the howlings of soldiers sounded.
As the guards walked by the corner, several black shadows jumped out of the corner of the wall, and in just a moment, ten people's necks were broken, and their bodies were quickly dragged into the corner.
Helin Camp is quietly infiltrated, and the long-planned plan is finally coming to light.
Zong Zheng has been troubled by the iron chains that have been cut down and the mechanisms of the lower dungeons. He has been thinking hard but has no result. He is very worried about the future development.
The whole dungeon was as quiet as usual, and this silence that could hear the breathing made Zong Zheng feel a little nervous.
After nightfall, a violent fighting sounded outside the prison gate. Zong Zheng stood up happily when he heard the movement and looked at the door, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
The masters in the prison understood very well that this fight was very unusual. They had already guessed that it might be related to Zong Zheng who had been imprisoned, because Zong Zheng's actions were very abnormal.
After a moment, the fighting came to an abrupt end, and three iron gates opened one after another. When the door opened, the masters could no longer calm down. They could already feel that the people who came here were very unusual and all looked at the direction of the three prison gates.
Under the gaze of everyone, a beautiful woman in a white dress entered the dungeon with a long sword in her hand. Although the light was dim, the woman's formidable temperament and vague appearance were also amazing.
"Xian'er!" Zong Zheng shouted,
Yes, the person who came here was Xianjie.
When Xianjie saw her brother Zheng who had not seen for a long time, she was excited to walk towards Zong Zheng, and Zong Zheng also excitedly went up to him.
The two hugged each other tightly, "Xian'er." "Brother Zheng." They each called out.
Everyone looked at it curiously, enviously, and also looked forward to it.
Zong Zheng's sudden imprisonment and Xian Jie's sudden appearance, everything starts with the assassination of Ali Bu Ge.
Alibuge's army was stationed outside the palace city. Once they encountered strong attacks from Kublai Khan's army, they would inevitably retreat to the palace city that was easy to defend and difficult to attack. At that time, no matter how powerful Kublai Khan's army was, it would be difficult to attack the palace city like a wall.
After Zong Zheng gradually realized the reason why he was wronged by various martial arts sects, especially after inquiring about Xianjie's murder of his father's enemy, he had already guessed that the disappearance of the masters of various martial arts sects seven years ago and the Juxian Pavilion could not escape.
After Zhu Yunshi learned about the relationship between Zong Zheng and Zong Wei, she decided to help Zong Zheng, so she told Zong Zheng all the truth and promised to help Zong Zheng all the time. Zong Zheng gradually trusted Zhu Yunshi.
After Zong Zheng confirmed that those missing masters were in the dungeon of Juxian Pavilion, he became more determined to the plan he had set before, a plan of attacking inside and outside, to ensure that Kublai Khan conquered the entire Helin plan.
This plan is to break into the dungeon of Juxian Pavilion and rescue all the masters in the dungeon. These masters secretly control the gate of the palace city in advance. Once Kublai Khan's army attacks Alibuge's army outside the palace city, Alibuge's army will retreat to the palace city, and Zong Zheng is responsible for leading those masters to guard the gate, and keeping the door and not allowing any of the Alibuge's army to enter. In this way, he can take down Helin.
Of course, the plan he gave to Kublai Khan and the plan he had in his heart were two completely different plans, and he probably only knew this himself.
In the face of such a plan, Kublai Khan had no reason to refuse, and Beauty Valley praised him and promised to send four masters from the Balang of Zhongshan to help.
In order to send himself into the dungeon of Juxian Pavilion, without arousing the suspicion of Alibuge, he and Kublai Khan joined forces to arrange four assassins to assassinate, and used Hulunge as bait for counter-espionage to kill his companions around him to gain the trust of Alibuge, and then threw out Kublai Khan's escape plan to lure Alibuge into chasing him, and at the same time gave reasons to let him naturally go to the prison of Juxian Pavilion.
Zong Zheng was sure of Ali Buge's character. He knew that with his own tongue and his previous contribution, Ali Buge would definitely fall into suspicion. In addition, Zhu Yunshi's timely reminder, it is not difficult to enter the Juxian Pavilion dungeon. The key is how to obtain the key to escape from the Juxian Pavilion dungeon.
Zhu Yunshi had no right to enter and exit the dungeon of Juxian Pavilion, but she knew that Juxian Pavilion had many mechanisms and had three prison doors, and the keys to the three prison doors were controlled by three people. She told Zong Zheng all this.
After Zong Zheng knew it, he deliberately used his mind and used his tricks when he followed Atai into the dungeon.
When he entered the tunnel entrance that day, he deliberately fell next to the stone dragon and left a little honey on the stone dragon. He knew that the most difficult thing to get in the three keys in the dungeon was Atai's one, because he was about to go to war with the army and was very cautious. So after entering the dungeon, at the moment when Atai opened the prison door, he carefully observed the location of Atai's placement of the key. At the moment when he handed it to Atai's treasure bag, Zong Zheng was very close to Atai, and he stole the key from him. Atai was anxious to leave, so he did not pay attention to whether the key was lost.
When the Lord of Juxian Pavilion approached the iron prison and explained the purpose of the iron chain on the ground to Zongzheng, he took the opportunity to put the key that had been smeared with honey on the Lord without anyone noticing.
In the whole session, the most important thing is Xianjie, because only Xianjie can have a sympathy with Zong Zheng, understand Zong Zheng's intentions, get the key from outside, crack the mechanism, and successfully enter the Juxian Pavilion dungeon, thereby saving the trapped person.
When Zong Zheng formulated the entire big plan, he had already thought of all the important links and details. Juxian Pavilion rescue was just a sub-plan in his entire big plan. He had already calculated that at this moment, Xianjie had to leave Kaiping, because the closer it was to the execution of the big plan, the more dangerous it would be to stay in Kaiping.
Therefore, in the letter sent to Xianjie, Zong Zheng expressed all the meaning, which was a secret letter, with a few normal words on the surface. In fact, if you pour some clear water, the hidden words will show that this is the secret between Zong Zheng and Xianjie, and it was obtained from the "The Great Buddha Sutra", and only the two of them knew it.
In this secret letter, Zong Zheng asked Xianjie to secretly escape from Ping and rushed to Helin on the night of the ninth day of the seventh month. He wrote all his plans in the secret letter.
