"I saw that there was no movement when you arrived in the well. I thought that something happened to you like the two holy monks. I was only looking for you and forgot about him. Who knew that he disappeared as soon as I returned to the house."
"How could a living person disappear, not to mention he was lying on the bed all the time?" Wang Liuzhi's voice was a little anxious.
"Did you not go look for him?"
"Not yetI thought something happened to you, and I was looking for you"
"What can happen to me, go to Yuaner quickly." Wang Liuzhi said anxiously, turned around and went out.
Cui closed the door and followed him out.
The night is deep, the autumn is cool, the boats in the river are moored randomly, the water in the river is flowing quietly, and the fireflies are flickering among the grass by the lake.
The waterfowl parked in the grass flew up flutteringly when they were startled by the footsteps of the two.
The two walked around the village, going to every possible hiding place, the reeds by the big lake in the village, the ancestral hall in the west of the village, the drying field in the north of the villagebut there was no sign of Li Yuan anywhere. .
The two finally returned home exhausted. At this time, the sky was getting dark, Cui Shi sat on the bed, Wang Liuzhi sat on the stool, relatively speechless.
After a while, Cui asked, "Fu Zhuang, how did you get out of the well?"
Wang Liuzhi was stunned, and said as if he just remembered it suddenly: "Oh no, I'm afraid the two young monks will suffer."
"What's going on?" Cui asked hastily.
Wang Liu pointed: "Do you know what's in that dry well?"
"have what?"
"There is a secret road inside, which leads directly to the woods in the south of the village."
"Ah" Cui replied in surprise.
It turned out that this dry well probably existed when Wang Liuzhi's ancestors built a house here. I don't know which dynasty it was dug out. It was supposed to be used to escape the war. A secret road was built under the dry well. No one was using it. The hole at the bottom of the well had already collapsed. At first glance, it was almost impossible to see the hole there. I don¡¯t know how Monk Wutian and Monk Rongxin found the hole after they went down. When I got out of the cave and saw the secret passage, I couldn't help but wonder where the secret passage led to, so I went out along the secret passage.
That's why when Mrs. Cui came to the well to call them later, they didn't hear a response, because they had already walked out along the secret path at that time.
But when Wang Liu pointed down, because the hole had already been opened, he saw the hole at a glance, and he couldn't help being curious, and since the monk Wutian and the monk Rongxin were not at the bottom of the well, the bottom of the well was so big. It is also impossible to hide in other places. He must have entered the cave and went out along the secret path, so he also entered the cave and went out along the secret path. Therefore, when Cui Shi called him the second time, he had already entered the secret passage and did not respond.
Besides, Monk Wutian and Monk Rongxin walked straight along the secret path. After walking for some time, they finally reached the end of the secret path. The exit of the secret path is a tree hole in a towering old tree in the woods in the south of the village. In the middle, the two climbed out of the tree hole.
As soon as they got out of the tree hole, the two looked out and were stunned.
A group of people in the woods were also stunned.
But the two sides were just stunned for a while, and the group of people shouted: "Hey, you two bald thieves, hurry up and catch them!"
It turned out that this group of people were Li Butou and his party who came to arrest Wutian and Rongxin. After they left Wang Liuzhi's house, they did not go back. whereabouts of people. Even if the two of them hid in Wang Liuzhi's house, they couldn't hide for a lifetime, as long as they came out, they would definitely not be able to hide from their eyes. Because if you want to get out of Jiangping Village, you have to go through this forest besides the intersection west of the village. And outside the woods, there are people guarding the intersection in the west of the village.
Monk Wutian and Monk Rongxin didn't panic when they saw a crowd surrounding them. Monk Rongxin still looked at them blankly and expressionlessly.
Monk Wutian smiled slightly, clasped his palms together and said, "Friends from the government, do you know the poor monk?"
Li Butou, who was the leader, couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and said, "I don't know."
"Since you don't know the poor monk, why did you arrest us?"
Catcher Li was taken aback for another moment. When he came back to his senses, he said viciously, "Little monk, it is precisely because I don't know you that I want to arrest you. A murder case just happened in the local area. You two young monks from other places are the most suspect." , Needless to say, you should go with our yamen."
"We are serious monks, and the officials can check our certificates, besides, we just arrived today.How could it be possible for someone from Baodi to commit a major murder case? "
"Needless to say, whether you are innocent or not, you will know once you walk around the yamen."
While the two parties were talking, Wang Liuzhi had already followed the secret path to the entrance of the tree hole. When he looked out, he saw Monk Wutian, Monk Rongxin, Li Butou and the others, and couldn't help crying out in pain.
How did he know that he and Cui Shi thought of a way to protect the two monks, but they followed the secret path and fell into the trap.
Because monk Wutian and monk Rongxin stood in front of the tree hole, he saw them and Li Butou and others, but they didn't see him. Since he told Butou Li that Monk Wutian and Monk Rongxin were not in his home, if he came out of the tree hole now, he would naturally have no way to explain to Butou Li, so he had no choice but to hide in the tree hole and not come out.
Li Butou forced Wutian and Rongxin to go to the Yamen, Wutian still smiled and said: "This official, you are so unreasonable, you want the poor monk to go to the Yamen without evidence Hey, do you still want to slander mediocrity?"
"Little monk, if you have anything to say, go to the lobby and talk to the magistrate. Who told you to come at a bad time?"
At this time, Wang Liuzhi saw Monk Rongxin put his hand on the whistle stick on his back in the tree hole. The heart couldn't help but mentioned the eyes of the throat. I thought, if I do this, I'm afraid I can't be kind, even if I'm not guilty, I'm guilty. He wanted to jump out and stop him, but he didn't dare.
Fortunately, Monk Wutian tugged at him, shook his head at him, and refused to let him do anything.
Li Butou and a group of yamen servants also took their hands off the handle.
"I said you two little monks, don't dawdle, you're wasting time. If you are really innocent, why are you afraid to walk with us in the yamen? Just go for a walk and prove that you are innocent. "
Catcher Li saw that Monk Rongxin seemed about to make a move, so he couldn't help but slow down his tone, the threat turned into persuasion, he used both soft and hard methods, trying to get the two of them to submit.
Monk Wutian smiled lightly and said: "Forget it, since I said so, we will go with you for a while." (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com
