At this moment, the sun was setting west, and most of the snow was melting everywhere. Walking under the pine and cypress, there was even snow water dripping down on it.

"The snow water bloomed and flowed into the well, so that there was a water flow under it, and the water flowed into the lotus pond with petals. Only then did the female girl discover that there was an inner lake in the mansion, but she still drew the living water from Huanhua Creek, which led to a lake, and it would definitely build a crypt."

Huo Weilou said in a deep voice: "Even so, how can you assert that there is a murderer hidden under the hiding channel?"

Bo Ruoyou said: "Because Sha Gu, Sha Gu is a low-key person and is an outsider. She appeared at the place where the murderer appeared last night, and it was in the place where the plum forest and the bamboo forest intersect. The young lady learned that Sha Gu accidentally fell into the plum forest well two years ago and stayed in the well for three or four days before being rescued. The young lady checked her leg injuries. Although she had healed, her legs were not only broken, but also blood. She was already stupid and thin. In that situation, she could still call for help for three or four days in the well. It was really weird."

After a pause, Bo Ruoyou said, "The girl in the folk thought it was because someone helped her in the underworld."

An ordinary frail woman fell into a well. Not to mention being injured, she was not injured, and she could not survive for three or four days after being hungry. But Sha Gu survived for three or four days after being injured. The only explanation is that someone gave her food in the well and even helped her treat her injuries.

Bo Ruoyou's words made He Cheng shudder, "What do you mean is... there is a hiding channel hidden under the marquis' mansion, and there is a... a person who is not seeing the sun, is it this person who has harmed the old lady and the Zheng brothers?"

Bo Ruoyou did not hesitate, "Yes, although Sha Gu is stupid, she just reacts very slowly. After being saved by this person, Sha Gu developed a desire to repay kindness. Later, most of the time, with Sha Gu's help, this person was able to come out of the hibernation."

He Cheng was frightened when he heard this. It was two years ago that the silly aunt fell into the well. The Anqing Marquis' Mansion looked at the nobles, but there was a person living under the mansion with continuous towers.

Is this person a human or a ghost?

Seeing He Cheng's expression, Bo Ruoyou said, "This idea is indeed unbelievable. The young girl had never thought about it. But after she fell into the well, she survived. In order to hide the evidence, Yu Mama actually set fire to the ancestral hall, and there was also a collapse in the ancestral hall, which made the young girl think of this possibility."

Eunuch Fu said justice: "If someone really hid in the underground of the Marquis' Mansion, who is this person?"

At this time, the group had already walked outside the Meilin. The question of Eunuch Fu made Bo Ruoyou pause slightly. She hesitated for a moment and said, "It should be someone who was hidden by the Marquis's Mansion and could not allow her to see the light of heaven."

Eunuch Fu and He Cheng looked puzzled. Huo Weilou looked at Bo Ruoyou, but understood what she meant, "You mean, the Hou Mansion not only falsely reported Zheng Yunni's birthday, but also concealed more important things?"

Bo Ruoyou nodded immediately, "The eldest lady is quite pity for the silly aunt. At first, the civilian girl couldn't understand why it was not someone else, but the silly aunt. But today I thought that the Marquis's mansion went through a lot of trouble to protect the marriage between the eldest lady and the second prince, and the civilian girl thought, maybe what the mansion wanted to hide was not just the unlucky day of the eldest lady's birth."

"The night when Master Zheng returned to the mansion, there was a saying, 'Twins are not auspicious. If she was born in the Yin year, it would be a real Yin fetus'. The birthday of the eldest lady is already inauspicious. But if the eldest lady gave birth to a twin daughter, the old lady must have understood that the marriage between the Marquis' Mansion and the Second Highness was not guaranteed, so she made the decision to keep one and hide one. Because of this, the eldest lady was crazy. And the foolish lady whom she beloved was somewhat similar to Miss Zheng's eyebrows and eyes, and the sachet she made for her daughter was exactly the same."

"Twin daughter..." He Cheng's pupils trembled slightly, "If this is the case, then the Marquis' Mansion will be a real crime of deceiving the king!"

Eunuch Fu was also a little surprised, but he was not as surprised as He Cheng so much that he could not do himself: "In order to preserve his glory and wealth, the more aristocratic family has a century-old foundation, the more they can use any means. In this way, everything will be understandable."

He Cheng frowned and said, "How stupid and ugly, and you also say that it's just like the eldest lady's eyebrows and eyes..."

Bo Ruoyou hesitated for a moment, "The young woman didn't understand this, but the young woman thought that there must be something strange underground. If she could go down to investigate, find the place where the murderer hides, and then catch the murderer, she would understand the reason."

Everyone had already reached the wellhead at this time. Huo Weilou ordered the embroidered envoy to bring people here, and then said, "Where is there any evidence left?"

Bo Ruoyou hurriedly walked to the plum tree east of the wellhead, "There are traces left after the rope is tied here. Sha Gu was pulled up by someone with a rope. The girl guessed that she learned this method because of this. Later, she saved the man below and used this method. When the murderer killed Zheng Erye, she fell from the Yaoyue Pavilion with a rope, which was also the same method."

"In addition, the female girl went to the study room where Zheng Sanye was killed just now. The air window was indeed very small, but the female girl thought that the murderer might be extremely thin and could climb into the window."

Seeing that Bo Ruoyou did so much trouble silently, Eunuch Fu exclaimed, "Miss Bo, you should be as careful as a hair, and you can find these things. Many of the branches and trivialities seem to be irrelevant. Who knows that everything makes sense when connected."

Bo Ruoyou glanced at Huo Weilou and lowered his eyes and said, "I just speculate, I just hope I never guessed it wrong."

The embroidered clothes quickly brought ropes and other equipment to the wellhead. However, the wellhead was only the size of a bucket, and it was still possible to put it in the bucket. These embroidered clothes made them all wide and long, which was difficult to get down. Bo Ruoyou hesitated for a moment and said, "Master, why not call the short guard who was earlier, and add the folk girl to go down and see."

Bo Ruoyou is slim and can go down, but she doesn't dare to be arrogant, so she suggests calling the guard named Zhao Wu. Zhao Wu was once suspected of being short and good at kung fu. Later, it was proved that he had nothing to do with the murder and never saw him again. Now this ordinary adult man in the wellhead is difficult to get out, but he is just in handy.

However, Huo Weilou looked at her for a moment, "If there is really a mystery under him, it would not be appropriate for you to go together."

As he spoke, Huo Weilou retracted his sight and "drilled a well."

Bo Ruoyou wanted to speak but stopped. Huo Weilou ordered the embroidered clothes to dig a well and said, "Go and hold Sha Gu."

If Bo Ruoyou’s calculations are correct, Sha Gu is very likely to be an accomplice of the murderer and naturally should be detained.

Although it took a little time to dig a well, it was the safest thing to do. If there was really another world underground in the Hou Mansion, Huo Weilou and He Cheng should also take a look at it. The embroidered clothes made each Kong Wu powerful and clean. Soon, the entire well platform was dug up and a big hole was dug out at the wellhead.

Therefore, it is used for irrigation and watering gardens. The underground is not as deep as imagined. When the last trace of afterglow falls to the horizon, the pit becomes the shape of a huge funnel, and the embroidered clothes have already jumped into the bottom of the well.

"Marty, there is indeed a half-man high hiding channel below."

Bo Ruoyou clenched his fists and waited for a while. After hearing this, his heart relaxed.

At this time, the embroidered envoy who was sent to decapitate Sha Gu's embroidered clothes back to the well, but said, "Marty, Sha Gu is gone."

Huo Weilou frowned, and the embroidered clothes sent an embroidered mansion said, "The last time I saw her was the maid of the eldest lady. At noon, the eldest lady asked her to go and talk. She stayed by the eldest lady for an hour and then surrendered. She should have returned to her yard, but since then, she disappeared. The yamen who guarded the important roads in the mansion said that she had never seen her."

Huo Weilou had a cluster of sword eyebrows and turned to the bottom of the well with a black hole. Sha Gu disappeared. Was she with the murderer?

"She is not afraid of disappearing, just afraid that the murderer will disappear."

After Huo Weilou finished speaking, he ordered the embroidered clothes to light the torch and went to the bottom of the well with neat skills. Seeing this, He Cheng hurriedly followed. His round body slipped as soon as he stepped on the slope, and then he slid to the bottom. He heard a "bang" sound, and He Cheng finally fell heavily in front of Huo Weilou. He grinned in pain, but did not dare to look clumsy anymore. He hurriedly climbed up. The embroidered clothes watching the embroidered clothes coughed slightly with a little laugh.

Eunuch Fu is old and it is not convenient to get down to make trouble, but Bo Ruoyou is unwilling to do anything.

There was an embroidered robes underneath to explore the way, and when he came back, he reported: "Mr. Marquis, here is about ten feet east of a rockery at the bottom of the lake. There was an exit left, but now it has been blocked. The sand and gravel poured down, and now only half of it can pass through the water. The yellow fragrant plum that Miss Bo saw flowed through there, and the end should be in the lotus pond in the east."

The culvert is made of huge rocks, only half a person tall. To walk during the period, you have to bend your body. Huo Weilou used a torch to take a look. He saw that there was indeed a fine flow of water under the culvert, mostly made of snow water seeping from the soil.

He nodded, "Search west."

After the words were finished, someone had gone west, and the embroidered clothes envoy who was holding the torch said, "Mr. Marquis, please--"

Huo Weilou did not move. He looked up at it, as if he was waiting for something.

The embroidered clothes followed and saw Bo Ruoyou walking down the slope. She walked carefully, but the snow and mud were wet, which made people frightened. Finally, they almost reached the bottom of the well. Bo Ruoyou jumped down. Although he staggered to the ground, he stood firm. Then Huo Weilou took the torch and went west.

The embroidered clothes blinked, "Miss Bo please--"

Bo Ruoyou didn't realize that he was there and followed. She just heard the words of reward from the embroidered clothes and said, "The blocked place in the east is the filled lotus pond."

Huo Weilou responded, and He Cheng followed behind him while rubbing the pain of falling bones.

As we headed west, everyone was wearing cats. The culvert was deserted for many years, covered with moss, and sometimes mice and crawlers were rushing by. Fortunately, Bo Ruoyou followed him. If he was an ordinary lady from aristocratic family, he would be afraid that he would be fleeing. Although spiders can be seen occasionally, spiders are rarely seen in the entire culvert, and people should have walked around here often.

Bo Ruoyou looked at the crypt with the light of the torch on Huo Weilou's hand. The more he looked, the more he noticed more people. As he walked, he saw some old clothes with no color invisible colors smearing between the snow and water. At the same time, a smell of rotten mud that could not be ignored lingered on the tip of Bo Ruoyou's nose.

The smell appeared again, and Bo Ruoyou's expression was hard to understand for a moment.

The culvert was pitch black and illuminated by torches. The more you walked in, the colder it became. Soon, there was an embroidered garment at the front and it was folded back. "Mr. Marquis, there is an iron gate in front, and there are several forks behind the iron gate, but only one person has more people."

Huo Weilou ordered: "Take people to see other places."

The embroidered clothes responded, and Huo Weilou brought Bo Ruoyou and He Cheng to the iron gate.

It was called an iron gate, but it was just an iron fence with extremely small spacing. It had already rusted on it. There was a large lock on the iron gate. Although the lock was locked, the chain was broken due to rust. Bo Ruoyou looked at the lock and the broken iron chain and thoughtfully.

Huo Weilou looked back at her, "How?"

Bo Ruoyou subconsciously stood up and answered, but she forgot that she was in the channel at this moment. Seeing that she was about to hit the hard rock above her head, Huo Weilou suddenly reached out to block it—

Bo Ruoyou felt that Huo Weilou's palm was pressing against her hair, and he was stunned for a moment before he realized. He quickly bent down. Huo Weilou took his hand lightly, and because he bent, he seemed very close to her. Bo Ruoyou wanted to retreat, but behind him was He Cheng. He Cheng fell and hugged for a while, his waist couldn't bear it, and he was so tired that he was sweating profusely.

Bo Ruoyou couldn't help but lower his eyes, "The underwater channel brings live water from outside and sets up a gate to prevent someone from sneaking into the mansion through this path. Secondly, once a flood occurs, it can prevent debris from pouring back into the inner lake-"

After a pause, Bo Ruoyou looked up and saw that there were naturally only cold and hard rock walls above his head. But after getting down the culvert, they went westward. At present, they should be under the pine and burial forest between the plum forest and the ancestral hall. "But here is in the mansion, this iron gate may be just to block some water plants."

There were indeed many decaying aquatic plants and branches on both sides of the iron gate. Bo Ruoyou frowned and looked back and forth, "The girl was wondering when the iron gate was locked and when the chain was broken."

Huo Weilu said: "If you said, the chain was broken at least two years ago."

Only when this iron gate is open can the foolish aunt be rescued.

Bo Ruoyou nodded without saying much, Huo Weilou walked forward along the most crowded hibernation. The more he went in, the less snow the water under his feet. Later, there was only mud that had dried up for many years. Soon, a piece of gentle slope appeared in front of everyone, and at the end of the gentle slope, another half-closed iron gate appeared.

The iron door is still open, and its shape is almost the same as the one that was just now. There is also a big lock on it. However, the iron door is only affected by moisture and has not been touched by water. The rust is much lighter, but the chains on the door are also broken.

But the lock was not broken due to rust, but was broken.

The chain foot is as thin as the thumb, but it was broken by someone. I don’t know how long it took for the person who broke the chain to break it.

The iron door opened with a creaking sound, and upward stone steps appeared in the door. The height of the corridor was raised, so even Huo Weilou could stand up straight. Huo Weilou held a torch in his hand and went up the stone steps. However, after walking less than ten steps, a dark room suddenly came into view.

At a glance, Bo Ruoyou could see that this was a woman's living room. There were simple furniture ornaments in the house, and an embroidered bed was placed in the north. However, whether it was the bed curtain or the brocade quilt, it looked very old. In addition, it was not shining here, and it was extremely damp, and there were mold spots on it.

There was a desk table against the wall to the west, and there was a lamp with all the lamp oil on the desk table. Bo Ruoyou stepped forward and looked at it, feeling that the lamp had not been lit for many years.

There is another door in the northwest corner of the dark room. After Huo Weilou saw this dark room, he walked into the door. But as soon as he opened the door, he paused. Bo Ruoyou felt suspicious and followed him forward. When she walked to Huo Weilou, her eyes were slightly dark.

Apart from one door, but inside this door was full of collapsed bricks and stones, it was like a good house. Suddenly the sky and the earth collapsed. Bo Ruoyou couldn't help but say, "This is..."

"This is under the ancestral hall." Huo Weilou spoke, and his voice was full of solemnity. "There is indeed a dark room under the ancestral hall, and there are people hidden here. I am afraid that we will find out, so I will destroy this place."

Although the door was filled with bricks and stones, it was still obvious that it was quite generous and there was also a furniture booklet. Bo Ruoyou took a step to the door and happened to see half a piece of paper pressing under a red brick.

It was a piece of yellowed rice paper with a poem of seven words on it, and the ink color was fading. Now only the remaining two sentences were seen, and the handwriting on it was almost exactly the same as the handwriting on the gold paper.

Bo Ruoyou hurriedly handed it to Huo Weilou. When Huo Weilou looked at it, he knew that Bo Ruoyou guessed that it was probably right. He turned around and looked at the only remaining dark room, "The ancestral hall caught fire yesterday. You met the murderer at night last night. Now there is no one here, so the murderer is afraid he has never come back."

Bo Ruo said in a deep voice: "The iron door lock connected to the culvert has been opened. I am afraid that it is unknown, or that I may not dare to search for it with great fanfare. I am afraid that the Marquis will find out what happened that year, so I simply do not do it."

He Cheng was also shocked when he looked at the room, "Xiao Bo, you really didn't think it was wrong, but the murderer was not here, and he was afraid that he would hide it on it now-"

Bo Ruoyou's heart was thrilled when he heard this, "We come here to search, and most people in the mansion will get news. I'm afraid the murderer should know that the embroidered clothes came just now and said that the fool was gone. Will something happen?"

Huo Weilou glanced at the whole room, his eyes becoming heavier. Bo Ruoyou stood beside him and felt a chill all over his body. In addition to the originally coldness of the room, Bo Ruoyou could not imagine that he could live here, and even in jail, he could still see the sky light. This place was like a tomb of a dead person.

When Bo Ruoyou was scanning, she suddenly saw something on the head of the bed. She went up to see two new cloth tiger shoes and an old moon rabbit lantern. The tiger shoes are things for children. The moon rabbit lantern is the most common lamp in the lantern market during the Mid-Autumn Festival in the Jiangnan area. These two things have only been here in the past two years.

Thinking of this, Bo Ruoyou not only felt cold on his back, but also felt a little heavier and sadness in his heart.

Huo Weilou glanced at her and said, "Let's go, these things will be collected and counted as evidence later."

Bo Ruoyou nodded and followed Huo Weilou along the original road back to the culvert. Everyone bent down, speechless all the way. When they came, Bo Ruoyou was still looking for clues, but when he walked back, he couldn't even say a word. The channel was low, and when he first came, he felt that it was inconvenient to bend his body, but after a cup of tea, the inconvenience of movement was nothing. The boundless darkness and coldness were the most depressing and desperate.

After passing through the first iron gate and returning to the wellhead, facing the cold wind blowing in from outside, Bo Ruoyou felt that the feeling of depression dissipated three times. Eunuch Fu heard the noise on the top and said, "How? Is there anyone?"

Bo Ruo said tightly, "Where are people living, but no one."
