As for the fact that there is no secret passage in the mansion? Why can’t we leave through the secret passage?

Of course there is, but you can’t!

Useless!

Xu Sheng and the others could think of the secret passage, so naturally the Shadow Blade Sect also thought of it!

Generally, a secret passage is to dig one or several passages underground in one's own mansion leading to one or more places outside the city.

This is also the escape preparation that various big families usually arrange.

Just like the costume dramas Xu Sheng saw on Earth, many people often escape through secret passages when escaping.

People here like this too!

But that’s because it’s so routine!

So the means to deal with it have already been developed!

As soon as Shadow Blade Sect entered the city, they asked many of their disciples to push giant wheeled carts and carry giant hammers, smashing them crazily on the ground around the mansions of the major families and everywhere in the city!

This kind of wheeled cart and giant hammer were specially invented to deal with and crack the secret passage!

Coupled with the continuous heavy rain these days, the secret passages are even more fragile and have long since been bombarded and collapsed!

At that time, Shadow Blade Gate still had a group of people surrounding the city, monitoring the movements within a ten-mile radius outside the city to ensure that no one, especially the rich, would escape through the secret passage!

Even if someone escapes from the city through a secret passage, they will be discovered immediately and will immediately send out flares to attract manpower for encirclement and suppression.

Until all the secret passages in the city collapsed.

The group of people they left outside swarmed into the city!

If it weren't for this, the Jing family wouldn't have had to break through in search of a chance to survive!

Even when the secret passage collapsed before, after the people from the Shadow Sword Sect discovered the secret passage, they still wanted to dig out the collapsed secret passage again and follow the secret passage to fight their way in!

In order to prevent them from succeeding, Xu Mansion also spent a lot of effort to block the secret passage!

If it were so easy to escape through the secret passage, all the major families would have escaped through the secret passage long ago!

Where are the people from the Shadow Blade Sect still leisurely besieging the major families outside?

As for explosives, muskets, etc., Xu Sheng had thought about inventing them before.

But the former has never found the raw materials, and the latter is therefore even more difficult to find.

At that time, Xu Sheng was sitting on wealth in his prosperous age, had a lot of guards, and was drunk with beauties!

His subordinates are also full of masters!

Who would have thought that troubled times would come so quickly?

In short, at that time, I didn’t really focus on looking for raw materials for explosives or making muskets.

He just gave some casual instructions to his men, but their search was fruitless, so Xu Sheng gave up.

Now we are in trouble!

Another day passed.

It's night in a blink of an eye.

Night falls.

"Oh no."

Lu Ba rushed in and said with an ugly face: "The brother we sent to contact the Shadow Blade Sect was bribed by the Shadow Sword Sect! There was a traitor, and with the help of internal and external cooperation, the defense line of the mansion was broken, and the people from the Shadow Sword Sect came in..."

"What?" Xu Sheng also turned pale.

He looked at the wives and concubines around him and felt very uncomfortable.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I, Xu Sheng, cannot protect you this time!"

Xu Sheng looked at them and said, "I'm sorry!"

Now after so many years, Liang Xuerou, Lin Cuizhu, Liang Xuerou's two cousins, Yingying, Lingling, Jing Xin, Jing Xiang, and the eight maids given to Xu Sheng by the Jing family!

These Xu Sheng women!

They are all over fifty!

Although they are basically a few years younger than Xu Sheng!

But now there are some white hairs on my head and some wrinkles on my face.

Of course, since they have been living the life of rich wives for so many years, Xu Sheng's women are still taking care of themselves online.

Although she no longer has the youthful beauty and youthful vigor she once had!

But now every one of them still has their charm.

A cousin of Liang Xuerou said: "Master, you don't have to feel sorry for us. It's enough for me to be rich with you for most of my life!"

After saying that, she swallowed the poison and fell down.

Xu Sheng supported her with both hands.

Another cousin of Liang Xuerou said: "The troubled times are coming suddenly, who can escape? Even if we didn't follow you, master, we would still encounter such troubled times. Master, you have done a good job!"

After saying that, she also took poison and fell down.

Xu Sheng put the first one away and supported her again.

At this time, Xu Sheng's eyes were filled with tears.

Lingling also said: "I suffered for nineteen years, and only then did I start to enjoy happiness after following you for the rest of my life. Master, I want to thank you!"

After saying that, she also took the poison.

Jing Xiang Jingxin said: "We don't regret marrying you either. Xu Sheng, thank you for being so gentle to our sisters for most of our lives."

After that, they also took the poison.

Yingying cried: "Master, I can't let you go!"

After saying that, she also took the poison.

The eight maids sent to the house by the Jing family did the same thing!

"When I was young, I was bullied by my elder sister and aunt at home. I swallowed my anger and was cautious! It was only after I married my master that I started to raise my head in front of my aunt and elder sister. I was even envied and awed by them! Husband, you have given me a lot.

Got it!"

Liang Xuerou smiled: "Husband, if there is a next life, I will still be your wife!"

After saying that, she also swallowed the poison and fell down.

"I only hate myself, why did I marry you when I was twenty-three!"

Lin Cuizhu also took the poison in her mouth. She touched Xu Sheng's face and said with tears: "Monk, monk. I seem to see the year when we first met again. I really regret not agreeing to you at that time.

Be your first wife! If there is an afterlife, please be the first to marry me, okay? I will definitely agree to it this time."

"Okay, okay! Okay, okay!" Xu Sheng nodded repeatedly and said. He supported Lin Cuizhu's body, which fell limply! While speaking, tears fell down in large numbers from his eyes.

"Kill!" "Kill!" "Kill!" "Kill!" "Kill!" "Kill!"

At this time, a large number of people from the Shadow Blade Sect outside had already reached the secret room in the inner courtyard.

"Bang!"

The door of the secret room where Xu Sheng was located was knocked open by a figure!

It was Lu Ba who was kicked and flew in!

"Xue Yidao, it's you!!!" Xu Sheng turned his head and looked with red eyes at the bearded, black-faced, scarred, one-eyed man holding a sharp long knife in front of him.

He is not tall, only about 1.5 meters!

But there is no doubt about his terrifying power!

Being short makes his body more flexible and his sword faster!

"Xu Sheng! We finally meet!"

Xue Yidao held the long sword tightly and said with a ferocious smile: "Before the troubled times came, do you think I didn't know that it was you who offered the reward and paid 10,000 taels of silver for my head?!"

He raised his hand and pointed at his one eye with an eyepatch: "You are indeed a tough bidder! This eye of mine is useless because of you, do you know?"

"What? Your eyes are broken because of me?"

Xu Sheng was also stunned for a moment, he had no idea about this matter.

Back then, Liang Yikun and Xue Yidao met on a narrow road, and the former was stabbed thirteen times by the latter and died on the street at night.

Xu Sheng once issued a reward order under the guise of someone else!

Ke Xusheng did not receive any feedback.

He thought his reward had no effect.

But now it seems obvious that his disguise was not successful at all!
