Chapter 58 Finding the Passage
Chapter 58 Finding the Passage
After having a sumptuous dinner with his clansmen, Sun Shan took Sun Bing and Sun Ziyong to carefully explore every corner of the yard.
As for the others, they were handed over to the management of my second uncle Sun Daping, who continued to clean the entire compound overnight to create a comfortable living environment.
The Sun clan members in Baishui Village heard that once they came to Hengzhou Prefecture, they could live in such a beautiful courtyard and eat the delicious and rich meals just now.
It was like a dream.
Originally, people who were used to doing farm work in the countryside regarded such trivial matters as tidying up the yard as a way to walk and digest food in the evening.
Everyone rolled up their sleeves and worked hard.
Just as Sun Shan was leading two people to detect the entrance to the underground passage, another yard less than two or three hundred meters away from the main compound was also crowded with some gangsters.
Wang Dashui looked at the dozen or so fierce bandits brought by his cousin Wang Daqiang and smiled with satisfaction: "Old Five, this time it's up to you. How is the situation? My father just told you. There is only one requirement: a quick victory and a complete eradication of the roots!"
"That's no problem. I'll have Gao Dahu keep an eye on it. If the old man is in a hurry, I'll finish the job tonight."
Wang Daqiang said this, but he smiled disdainfully in his heart.
He had learned the entire story from Gao Dahu.
There was an unknown scholar named Sun Shan who took charge and defeated his two cousins twice.
The always decisive old man was also in the same boat. He wanted to kill the scholar, and he also wanted to seduce Lingzhi to come aboard the Wang family's ship.
In my opinion, no matter what, just ask directly whether you accept the result or not.
If you don’t agree, just one word: kill!
Kill them all, there's no need to cause so much trouble. It's not like our Wang family hasn't killed scholars before, and we've even secretly killed several juren.
"There's no rush for this, there's no need to rush for the moment."
Wang Dashui stroked his goatee and thought for a moment, "Let's study the plan first. After we get everything sorted out, we must make sure we catch them all in one fell swoop."
"Okay, it's up to you."
Wang Daqiang nodded helplessly and flipped through a few floor plans of the underground passage on the table.
In fact, in his opinion, they should take advantage of the time when the Sun family’s talents have entered the compound and are busy and confused, and sneak into the underground passage at night.
After dealing with Sun Shan, he set fire to the yard.
As for how many can be burned to death, that’s it.
The plan of Prince Wang and his two cousins was to kill the guys at Jun Youlai's restaurant, who were said to have practiced martial arts for a while, and the Zhang father and son at the same time.
This requires a lot more manpower and arrangements, and requires more detailed planning.
Sun Shan took the wooden stick in his hand and knocked on a rockery on the south side of the backyard. He felt that the echo was a bit weak.
I will have a clear idea in my mind.
After some consideration, he found four or five exits that were most likely to be disguised.
Among them, the rockery that seems to have no function but occupies a large area is the most suspicious.
"That might be it."
Sun Shan smiled at Sun Bing and Sun Ziyong who were anxious beside him and said, "Let's be careful and move gently so that they don't notice anything."
"really?"
When Sun Bing saw Sun Shan enter the backyard, he kept knocking and hitting things with a wooden stick, looking very mysterious.
Unexpectedly, Sun Shan determined the location in just a short while. He couldn't help but feel a little bit unbelievable, it felt like it was too easy.
In fact, he had no idea that Sun Shan, as a special forces soldier, had undergone professional training and had conducted in-depth research on ancient buildings and various hidden places.
Otherwise, when performing a mission, how can you quickly discover and find the confidential information hidden by the other party?
"About the same."
Sun Shan held the wooden stick in his hand and knocked slowly and carefully around the rockery that was about five or six meters high and five or six meters in diameter.
When he knocked on a large piece of stone that seemed ordinary but was a bit abrupt, the sound inside seemed even hollower.
I couldn't help but put my ear close to it and knocked it twice more.
Sun Shan was sure that it was definitely empty and the space was not small.
"It's right here! Can you two see if there's a mechanism that can be opened?"
Sun Shan looked around excitedly to see if there was any mechanism that could be opened from the outside.
In theory, this underground passage must be able to be opened from the outside so that people in the yard can quickly escape from the backyard when they need to flee.
"Okay, let's look for it!"
When Sun Ziyong saw that Sun Shan brought him to find out about such a confidential matter that even his second uncle had not made arrangements for, he was so excited that he could not control himself.
In response, it started circling the rockery like a giant rat that hadn't eaten for several days.
The area around the rockery is relatively clean, without too many obstacles, which is obviously designed to facilitate passage during escape.
The three of them walked around the rockery for more than ten minutes, almost sweating from anxiety, but still had no clue.
This made Sun Bing and Sun Ziyong somewhat doubtful of Sun Shan's speculation.
Although, they also knocked on the outer wall of the rockery, it felt like it was empty inside.
But what if the previous owner really made such arrangements just to save money?
Sun Shan was also a little anxious. If he didn't find the exit of the underground passage tonight, he was afraid that he would not be able to sleep well.
It doesn't matter to me, but what if it's the middle of the night and those bandits come out from somewhere else, kill some people, and then set a fire.
His image in the Sun family of Baisha was completely ruined.
It is difficult to gather people's hearts and minds. If it is about to collapse, killing a few of these inexperienced country folk will be enough to make them flee back to their hometown overnight.
I never dare to follow myself out again.
He thought about it, and in no time, like a monkey, he climbed to the top of the rockery with his bare hands.
This left Sun Bing and the other man dumbfounded!
I rely on!
Isn't Sun Shan's hands and feet too dexterous?
What's more, he was wearing a sand-filled suit weighing dozens of kilograms. If there was no sand, he would have flown into the sky!
Sun Shan didn't have the energy to think so much. He looked down at the entire yard and found that from a high place.
The whole yard is beautifully decorated with mountains, water, flowers, grass and trees.
However, this is not the time to enjoy the beautiful scenery. The key is to find the mechanism first.
In theory, the mechanism at the entrance to the underground passage should be near the entrance and cannot be too far away.
Firstly, it is convenient to enter and exit.
Secondly, the distance is too far and it is difficult to set up the mechanism.
Sun Shan thought to himself, and his pair of glowing eyes slowly scanned the area.
After looking around twice, he found that a stone basin disguised as a flower bed more than three meters away from the suspected entrance seemed to have been moved.
"Ziyong, take a look at that basin and move it gently."
"Good!"
When Sun Ziyong saw that Sun Shan had found the mechanism after searching for a while, he shouted excitedly and hurriedly walked to the flowerpot with Sun Bing.
Start moving.
Found that it didn't move at all.
"Twist it left and right!" Sun Shan couldn't help but laugh when he saw the two idiots just moving it with force. The mechanisms on TV were all opened by turning left and right. How could the door be opened by just moving it?
What if a maid accidentally pushed her down? Wouldn’t she be exposed?
"Okay, let's go around."
Sun Ziyong smiled awkwardly and started turning around with Sun Bing.
When I started to turn left, nothing moved.
When they turned to the right, their grip suddenly loosened.
After a series of slight "crack! crack!" sounds, a crack appeared in the rockery stone wall that Sun Shan guessed was the rockery.
“Hahahaha, I found it!”
When Sun Shan saw that the entrance was opened, he jumped down heavily from the top of the five or six meter high rockery, hitting the ground so hard that it shook.
But before you and Sun Bing could scream, Sun Bing rushed into the dark crack of the rockery and said, "Stay outside and don't come in."
