Chapter 689 Di Renjie and Qimen Dunjia (2)

Di Renjie put down the tortoise shell in his hand and looked up and asked the clerk beside him, "Who sent it?"

"He is a guy in his forties, dressed in a ranger, said he was handed over to the Dali Temple Minister, and then left." The little official replied in a low voice.

"Where are others?" Di Renjie said nervously, "Where are others?"

"We didn't follow us, we should be an insignificant person." The clerk of Dali Temple spoke.

"Dali Temple Minister, it's not good!" A minor official came to report in panic, "Report to Dali Temple Minister, something big happened."

"What's wrong?" Di Renjie asked in confusion.

"The people from Tang Jian's mansion are gone."

"What's going on!" Di Renjie stood up in shock, "When did they leave? Aren't you watching?"

"We don't know what's going on." The little official broke out in a cold sweat. "Our people have been staring at Tang Jian's mansion. Everyone knows who goes in and who goes out. But since yesterday, none of their people went out, we felt strange. When they knocked on the door and asked, their door was open, and there was no one inside, as if they disappeared overnight."

Di Renjie's breathing was heavy, "All disappeared overnight?"

The little official said in a panic, "Go and have a look at Dali Temple. Tang Jian's mansion is too cunning."

Di Renjie raised his sword, "Look at Tang Jian in the dungeon, let's go to Tang Jian's mansion to see it, don't tell him about this."

"yes!"

"If you look for the person who handed the tortoise shell, you must find the person." Di Renjie ordered, always thinking that this matter was too strange.

In Bizhai, Dongshi, the fat monk also received the message and asked the short man, "Did you see anything?"

"I climbed over the wall and took a look. There was indeed no one." The short man whispered: "This time I probably met some strange man. There was a very strange formation in the courtyard of Tang Jian's mansion, as if I were doing some ritual. I don't know what happened, but our eyes in Tang Jian's mansion disappeared."

"Have you left the city?" The fat monk looked nervous.

"It doesn't look like it." The short man also said, "our people are scattered everywhere in Chang'an, and the people from the Tang Jian family have checked us clearly. If there were people from Tang Jian's mansion left, we would have known."

"Tell Gu Too Er immediately." The fat monk ordered the people around him, "Investigate the entire Chang'an and see where the people from Tang Jian's family went."

"Yes!" Bizhai's hidden thread took action immediately.

Di Renjie brought people to Tang Jian’s mansion. When he opened the door, he saw a bloody bull head at the door, "What does this mean?"

"Returning to the Dali Temple Minister, it's like a sacrifice." The minor official replied.

"Sacrifice?" Di Renjie wondered, "Who are they sacrificing?"

The little official beside him didn't know how to answer. What happened to Di Renjie when he walked into Tang Jian's mansion was a strange formation in the yard. The entire formation was made of stone pestles, and this formation was even more complicated. Di Renjie spoke to the little official beside him and said, "Draw this formation and give it to Li Chunfeng of the academy."

"yes!"

Di Renjie walked around the formation, and the entire mansion gave people a strange feeling everywhere, and strange symbols were drawn in many places with blood.

"Cross all these symbols and hand them over to Li Chunfeng."

Di Renjie walked into the inner courtyard of the Tang Mansion. It was very chaotic, as if he had entered a thief, and there was still some blood on the ground. Has there been a fight?

The little official on the side replied, "When we returned to the Dali Temple Minister, we did not find any strange places when we were guarding us, we didn't even move or hear any sound."

"Really?" Di Renjie was puzzled.

"Really, there is no movement at all." The little official answered honestly.

After seeing every room in Tang Jian’s mansion, it was very messy. Is there a thief in the house? Is there a fight? And there seemed to be a lot of footprints, but when I looked carefully, I found something wrong. Whether it was the potted plants or the pottery bowls on the ground, they were intact. If there was a fight, something would have been broken. Moreover, more than a dozen people in Tang Jian’s mansion would have been shouted if there was any movement.

A strange atmosphere lingers in my heart.

Walking in the rooms on Tang Jian's mansion, Di Renjie lowered his head and found some carbon ash. How could there be carbon ash in the room where he was sleeping? It looked a bit like a trace of mosquito coils. He picked up some particles under the ash that were burnt out, put them on the tip of his nose and smelled some fragrance.

"You hand over these ashes to Sun Simiao of the Gu family." Di Renjie spoke.

"Yes!" The officials of Dali Temple immediately went to do business.

Walking on Tang Jian's mansion, he found something in the crack of the stone slab under his feet. When he looked carefully, he saw a thin thread of hair. He pulled it hard and the hair seemed to be stuck in it. The whole thread broke. Di Renjie stood up again and sneered, "It's mysterious, let's lift the floor here, hurry up!"

"yes!"

The people from Dali Temple acted immediately. After the whole floor was lifted, a huge tunnel appeared in front of them.

"I played for a long time, it turned out to be here." Di Renjie ordered the minor officials around him again, "Prepare torch us in and take a look."

Several torches burned, Di Renjie led the people from Dali Temple into the short cave, where there were many footprints. After walking for half an hour, he still couldn't see where the exit was.

"Dali Temple Master, I think this tunnel can lead directly to the outside of Chang'an City." The little official behind Di Renjie said.

Di Renjie's face remained calm and then went forward until he saw the light. The exit was right in front of him. He accelerated his pace and was about to walk out of the tunnel entrance. A strange movement came from the tunnel entrance, which immediately began to collapse.

"Back!" Di Renjie shouted.

Everyone kept retreating until the collapse stopped and the entire exit collapsed.

East outside Chang'an City? Di Renjie, with his sense of direction along the way, "Go out quickly, probably not far."

Everyone turned around and walked back. After another hour, Di Renjie suddenly felt a creepy feeling. It was said that he had been walking for so long and it was time to get to the entrance to go back. Why is it still in this dark and authentic tunnel? Perhaps it was a problem with his feelings. Di Renjie was still walking, but it became less and less right.

"My Master of Dali Temple, look!" The officials of Dali Temple pointed at the front with torches, "Isn't this the place that just collapsed? We're back."

"Let's go again." Di Renjie ordered.

"yes!"
