Chapter 277 One step too late
This time she noticed something unusual: the colors of some bricks were different, darker than the bricks next to them.
But because the color difference is not very large, it is easy to be overlooked.
Thinking of this, Yun Bei stepped forward, jumped a few times, listened to the sound, and then said to Si Nanzhao and Zhou Yanfang with great certainty: "This should be the entrance to the secret passage. We have to find where the mechanism is first."
"I've looked for it several times, but I couldn't find the mechanism." Si Nanzhao frowned, suspecting that the mechanism was not in the house.
"Let's take a look first." Yunbei was not sure whether the mechanism was in the house. But no matter what, he still had to look for it.
What if you find it?
If we really can't find it, we can only ask a few more people to come and dig it up and have a look.
Fortunately, hard work pays off, and the three of them searched together and finally found it.
"Nan Zhao, sister-in-law, something seems to be wrong here." Zhou Yanfang said as he pointed to the place where his hand touched.
This is a place no one would have thought of, because it is a bonsai and the flowers on it are all alive.
After hearing Zhou Yanfang's words, Si Nanzhao and Yun Bei walked over together. When they saw the emerald green bonsai, Yun Bei thought it was fake until he touched it and confirmed that it was a real bonsai.
"Try it!"
Zhou Yanfang nodded, hugged Pen Ying with both hands and began to twist.
As he moved, Si Nanzhao and Yun Bei's eyes fell on the position he had pointed to before.
Sure enough, I saw that the floor that seemed to be tightly fitted had a small gap, which was gradually getting bigger.
In the secret passage, Old Man Rong and his grandson were running wildly. But soon, they heard the sound of the secret passage opening.
"Grandpa, they seem to be catching up, what should we do?" Rong Rui looked back as he ran. He was worried that Yun Bei and Si Nanzhao would catch up with them, and they had no place to hide in the secret passage.
He himself was not afraid, but he was afraid that something might happen to his grandfather. After all, he was already old, and if he got injured, he might not be able to survive.
"Don't worry about them, just run out first." Old Man Rong was a little tired from running, and his speech was not smooth.
Rong Rui was very worried. After thinking for a while, he said to him, "Grandpa, how about I stop them here and you go first?"
"A Rui, even if they want to stop them, I will be the one to stay and stop them."
"No, if someone really needs to stay, then I'll stay. I'm young and good in martial arts, and I may be able to defeat them." How could Rong Rui agree to let his grandfather stay? He was his only relative.
"Okay, stop arguing. We don't have to stay here yet. We still have about ten meters to go to the exit. Once we get out, there will be a sky where birds can fly freely and a sea where fish can swim freely. Ah Rui, you have to remember that as long as you have the green mountains, you will never run out of firewood, understand?"
"Got it, Grandpa." Rong Rui responded and carried him on his back while old man Rong wasn't paying attention.
Fortunately, this secret passage is relatively wide and of a suitable height, otherwise it would be a real problem if the old man could not walk anymore.
Lying on his grandson's back, a smile appeared on Old Man Rong's face. Although he was the only one left to accompany him, he was a good person.
If he really couldn't escape, he would risk his life to help his grandson escape.
Rong Rui had no idea what his grandfather was thinking. Although carrying him on his back slowed down his speed a little, it was much better than letting him walk by himself.
As soon as Yunbei and the other two entered the secret passage, they heard the sound of running ahead and immediately ran after them. The three of them knew that if they let them run away today, it would be difficult to find them again.
Even if they had each other's portraits, they might not be able to find the person. After all, the population of the capital was huge, and looking for two people among tens of millions of people was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
As expected, it was only ten meters long. Rong Rui soon saw the exit and was delighted.
He did as Old Man Rong said, turned on the switch and climbed out.
After he went out, he found that this was another courtyard. However, this courtyard was very dilapidated and it was obvious that no one had lived there for a long time.
The two of them didn't dare to delay for a moment and ran out. But after running a few steps, Rong Rui turned back and found some broken cabinets, doors, stones and other things to block the exit.
Although this is not of much use, it can at least delay some time and give them time to escape.
When Old Man Rong saw his grandson blocking the exit, he did not stop him. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he took out some cosmetics from his pocket and put on some makeup.
When Rong Rui blocked the exit, he saw that his grandfather had completely changed. If it weren't for the clothes he had just put on, he wouldn't have recognized him.
"Grandpa, what are you doing?"
"Come here, I'll draw you too. I'll go out and find two clothes to change into, so we don't have to run so hard."
Rong Rui did not refuse, and stepped forward to let Old Man Rong paint on his face. Old Man Rong did not stop until he turned into another person.
"They are probably going to catch up with us, let's go quickly." Old Man Rong said as he walked out of the yard first.
When he walked outside, he saw someone drying clothes outside. Without saying anything, Old Man Rong pulled down two pieces of clothes, handed one to his eldest grandson, and told him, "Hurry up and change."
Rong Rui felt a little embarrassed and a little disgusted because the clothes were really torn, but he still put them on obediently.
After changing their clothes, the two of them found a direction and left in a hurry.
Besides, Yunbei, Sinanzhao and the others also quickly found the exit and found the mechanism. However, when they opened the exit, they found that there was something blocking it.
A few people couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, then tried to push the thing, and found that they could push their hands, so they worked together to push the thing away.
By the time they moved everything out of the cave entrance and walked out, there would be no trace of Old Man Rong and his gang.
Damn it, I was a step late.
The faces of several people did not look very good. They checked around the yard before leaving.
After walking a few steps, Yunbei, who had better eyesight, pointed to a place not far away and said, "Look, what is that?"
“It looks like clothes.”
"Who would leave clothes on the floor?"
"Go and have a look."
Several people quickly came to the front of the clothes. When Si Nanzhao saw one of the clothes, his face became worse and he said, "This clothes should belong to the two people who escaped. It seems that they changed their clothes."
After hearing this, Yun Bei couldn't help but become worried and said, "If they just changed their clothes, it would be fine. I'm afraid they also put on makeup and changed their appearance. If that's the case, even if they are standing in front of us, we may not be able to recognize them with a portrait for comparison."
