Chapter Thirty-Six: There is no other place in the world
Bao Zheng said at this time: "Master Li, why don't we go with us and take a look together. Maybe we can find some clues in Zhang Li's mansion."
Everyone was willing to go and see, but Mr. He, because he was old and tired, did not go with him. Zhang Yuxi had just returned home and had a lot of things to talk to his sister, and even Xiaoyun did not go with everyone.
Li Yiran's subordinates were immediately in front, Bao Zheng, Li Yiran, Gongsun Ce, Fang Lingmei, Chen Shuangxue, Lin Yan, Dong Xianxian, and Sun Ling'er were behind. Li Yiran's subordinates were all capable and acted very quickly. When Bao Zheng and others arrived at Zhang Li and Zhang Yan's mansion, the subordinates had already surrounded the Zhang family mansion.
Bao Zheng and others got off the carriage, and one of them had already met and knelt down halfway and replied: "Mr. Li, there is no one in the Zhang family's mansion, and all the maids and servants were killed in a wing room. According to the detailed statistics just now, there were as many as forty people who died."
Bao Zheng couldn't help but feel numb when he heard this! Li Yiran was even more shocked. Bao Zheng immediately walked into the Zhang Mansion, and the person who reported him led Bao Zheng to the side room. Dong Xianxian and several women couldn't bear to see the bloody scene, and they were just standing in the courtyard of Zhang Mansion waiting.
As soon as Bao Zheng stepped into the door of the room, he immediately felt a buzzing sound from his forehead. He felt the sky spinning, countless crying sounds and sharp screams squeezed into his mind like a fountain. Seeing that the room was blood flowing into a river and corpses were everywhere in the ground, this place was really a purgatory on earth, Bao Zheng couldn't help but feel a sore nose, and a dull aura in his heart made him breathless. Bao Zheng relied on a pillar in the room, stabilized his emotions for a moment, and then he calmed down and walked out of the room. The crying and begging sounds were endless.
"We died so miserably! You must avenge us,,,,,,"
"We will not let Zhang Li and Zhang Yan brothers,,,,,,"
Bao Zheng did not hear the sound in his ears until he walked into the courtyard. Bao Zheng couldn't help but feel confused. What was going on? How could I hear those strange and strange voices? Bao Zheng has always disbelief, but since his soul penetrated the Song Dynasty, Bao Zheng began to doubt whether there are really soul ghosts in the world. He was considered a dead person. Maybe it was because of this that he actually had the ability to communicate with the dead souls. However, even if he had this ability, Bao Zheng did not have the courage to step into the room to communicate with those wronged souls again. It was simply too scary.
Seeing Bao Zheng's expression strange, Dong Xianxian couldn't help but greet him and support him. Dong Xianxian showed concern on her face and said, "Bao Lang, what's wrong with you? Did you just hit the evil one? It's better to go to such a fierce place in the future."
Bao Zheng waved his hand and said that he was fine. At this moment, a light of inspiration flashed through his mind, and a sentence came into Bao Zheng's mind: There is a secret room under the lobby of the Zhang family!
This sentence was separated from the complaints of the wronged souls, which made Bao Zheng feel excited at this time. Bao Zheng immediately cheered up and said, "Mr. Li, send a few people to the lobby immediately."
Li Yiran was confused, but seeing Bao Zheng's mysterious secret, he ordered a few people to follow him. Fang Lingmei and others saw Bao Zheng's expression strange, so they followed him.
Bao Zheng walked into the lobby and asked someone to find a hammer, hammering the surrounding walls and ground with the hammer. After a while, Bao Zheng pointed to the huge Buddha statue in the lobby and said, "There must be another world behind this Buddha statue."
Everyone saw the Buddha statue standing upright in the middle of the lobby, all of which were carved from white marble. The whole Buddha statue was probably weighing a thousand pounds. Li Yiran called more than a dozen people and slowly moved the Buddha away with tools. He saw that there was nothing strange after the Buddha statue. The head of the entire lobby was originally a huge map of mountains and rivers. The map of mountains and rivers was painted with silk cloth, and the whole painting was inlaid on the wall, which was integrated.
Bao Zheng pointed to the Buddha statue and said, "After the map of mountains and rivers, there must be a secret passage."
Li Yiran sent someone forward, and one of them waved his sword to cut towards the mountain and river map. With a sound of sound, the mountain and river map was split open, and a stone door appeared after the picture.
Everyone was shocked, but they didn't expect that there was a real world in the Zhang Mansion. Bao Zheng said at this time: "The Zhang family has done all the mechanisms. He predicted that the most dangerous place was the safest place. He killed all the servants, making us think they had escaped. In fact, they were hiding in this secret passage, waiting for the wind to pass, and then looking for an opportunity to escape. If there is really someone inside, everyone should be extra careful when they open this secret passage."
After Hu Yanqing assassinated the prince, the entire Luzhou City was in a state of lockdown in order to arrest Hu Yanqing. It would be extremely difficult to leave Luzhou City. Bao Zheng speculated that Zhang Li and Zhang Yan might be in this secret passage.
With Bao Zheng's reminder, everyone went to the side. Li Yiran asked a few smart people to hold a long pry stick and pried open the stone door with a bang.
The stone gate suddenly opened, and there was a constant sound of puffing sounds. A shower of hidden arrows shot out from the stone gate. Fortunately, Bao Zheng and others had been on guard, and no one was injured after these hidden arrows.
Li Yiran was about to send someone in to take a look, Bao Zheng shook his head and said, "It seems that I was wrong. There should be no one inside. If there were people, they would definitely not be able to resist rushing out. Since the Zhang family built such a secret room not to hide from difficulties, then what is it for?"
Dong Xianxian said: "Bao Lang, just let's go in and take a look?"
Bao Zheng shook his head and said, "The arrows shot just now are all slightly blue, and they are obviously poisonous. There must be mechanisms inside. Lord Li went to drive a few pigs over and let the pigs open the way for us so that anyone can suffer casualties!"
Li Yiran's subordinates were moved when they heard Bao Zheng's words. If Li Yiran commanded himself, they would definitely let them lead the way in front of him. The lives of these subordinates would never be considered by the superiors. Bao Zheng not only observed in detail, thought about problems carefully, but also had a kind heart. People with such a personality are extremely rare among noble people.
Li Yiran asked a few subordinates to buy a few pigs outside. The pig was rushed in one by one. Sure enough, I heard the pig's screams soon after, until the tenth pig was rushed into it. The pig actually swayed around inside and walked out safely.
Everyone knew that it was already considered safe inside. Looking at the dead fat pigs in the secret passage, Li Yiran's men were all afraid. If Bao Zheng hadn't suggested, then the fat pigs lying inside would not be the fat pigs, and it was very likely that they would be themselves.
