Chapter 32: The Story of the Stables (I)


Tang Lie returned to the two girls with a comfortable body, and he said in a low voice: "While their attention is now focused on the Qingyue Palace, let's get out of here as soon as possible." ” Xuan Bo nodded, and remembered that the others couldn't see their reactions in the dark, and said softly: "Yes, we should get out of here as soon as possible, they can't find our bodies from the fire, and they will definitely launch a comprehensive search, and the secret passage is very likely to be discovered." ” She grabbed the faucet and spun it counterclockwise, and there was a creaking sound on the wall, and after a while, she saw an irregular crack in the wall, and a faint light penetrated through the crack, and the crack grew bigger and bigger, and a doorway appeared in front of their eyes.

Xuan Bo wanted to go outside, but Tang Hunt dragged his slender hand and said with concern: "You guys stay inside first, and I'll go out to investigate the situation." ” Xuan Bo hurriedly shook off Tang Hunt's big hand, remembering what Tang Hunt had just done, Fang Hunt's heart was pounding, this bastard guy actually came to catch himself without even washing his hands.

At this time, Tang Hunt naturally did not have so many scruples, carefully walked out of the doorway, a rancid breath rushed towards him, the feet were soft, carefully distinguished, this seems to be a stable, the location where the exit was built is just the place where horse feces are stored, no wonder the air is so dirty, Tang Hunt sighed in his heart, Xuan Sizhe thought about things really well, no one would have thought that the exit of the secret passage would be in the dirty stable, let alone that the noble royal family would escape through this road.

Princess Xuanbo and Wanyue then walked out, and when they saw the filthy scene around them, they screamed, but fortunately there was no one else around, and if they were heard, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Tang Lie was not familiar with the terrain in the palace, so he had to turn to Xuanbo's master and servant for help, and was sure that there was no one else around, so he lowered his voice and said to Xuanbo: "This should be the stable of the palace, do you know how to get out from here?"

Princess Xuanbo has always been pampered, although she has lived in the palace since she was a child, she has never been to the stables, and her knowledge of this place is limited to knowing that the stables are located in the northwest corner of the palace.

Wan Yue said: "There is a corner gate not far from here, I have been here before, and I remember the route to the corner gate. ” Xuan Bo was pleasantly surprised: "Okay, Wanyue, you come to lead the way, let's leave this place as soon as possible." ” Tang Lie smiled: "How to leave, do you want to swagger out?"

Xuan Bo said coldly: "Do you have any better way?"

At this time, there was a faint sound of violent coughing and wheezing in the distance, the three of them looked at each other and stopped talking at the same time, Tang Hunt made a gesture to them, signaling the two to hide back in the dark passage, and he was often in the dark corner of the stable, quietly looking out, but saw an old man with a thin body, driving an ox cart full of wooden barrels slowly towards the direction of the stable.

Tang Lie immediately guessed the identity of the old man, judging from his dress and attire, it was clear that he was the people who were responsible for cleaning up the horse manure, and the old man came to the front of the stable, and coughed and wheezed a few times in a row, and then unloaded the dung buckets on the car one by one, ready to load the car.

A bold idea arose from Tang Lie's mind, if they wanted to successfully escape from the palace, the dung truck in front of them was their best chance.

The old man came to the stable slowly, and began to clean up the horse manure with the dustpan in his hand, and at the moment when he bowed down to clean up, Tang Hunt rushed up suddenly, and hit the back of his neck with a palm, the old man shook and fell to the ground, Tang Hunt was worried that the old man's life would be endangered if he shot too hard, so he did not dare to exert all his strength.

Although the old man fell to the ground, he did not faint, he screamed in terror, Tang Hunt's eyes were quick, he covered his lips, and threatened in a low voice: "If you dare to speak out, I will kill you with a knife."

The old man's cloudy eyes were full of horror, Tang Lie felt guilty in his heart, if it wasn't for the situation, he wouldn't have done such a rude thing.

Xuan Bo and Wan Yue saw that Tang Hunt had subdued the old man who was collecting dung, and also walked out of the shadows, Wan Yue found a rope to help Tang Hunt tie up the old man, and blocked his mouth with a cloth ball.

Princess Xuanbo felt unbearable when she saw them treating an old man in such a way, and said apologetically: "Old man, you have been wronged" took a pure blonde hairpin with hollow filigree from his head and put it in front of the old man as compensation for him.

Tang Lie quickly took off his robe, took off the old man's clothes from him, put them on himself, picked up the hat on the ground, and put it on his head.

Xuan Bo and Wan Yue had already understood Tang Hunt's intentions, Xuan Bo looked at the dung bucket on the side, and said secretly in his heart: "It's so dirty here, how can I hide inside?"

Tang Lie lifted the dung bucket and quickly filled the dung bucket, the two buckets in the middle only contained half a bucket of horse manure, and then brought cold water from the water tank of the stable and poured it into the dung bucket.

His eyes turned to Xuanbo and Yuyue, and he looked like he was inviting you into the urn.

Xuan Bo bit her lower lip hard, she already understood that there was no other choice but this method.

Decisively stepping into the dung bucket, she couldn't help but shiver as stimulated by the cold and bone-chilling fecal water, and the stench almost suffocated her, and it was the first time in her life that she had suffered such torture.

Wanyue used the short knife she carried with her to cut off the bamboo next to the stable, cutting it into two hollow and transparent sections, which were used for ventilation when necessary.

Tang Hunt loaded all the dung buckets onto the ox cart, and was sure that there was no flaw, so he bent over and drove the ox cart swaggering towards the corner gate.

When the ox cart passed through the corner gate, he saw eight guards standing there with torches held high, shouting from afar, "What man?"

Tang Hunt hurriedly bowed up, coughed violently, and one of them smiled: "Who should I be, it turned out to be an old man who collects dung" Tang Hunt drove the ox cart unhurriedly and leaned towards them.

One of the guards scolded: "What is so rancid in the car, this old man is getting more and more unlucky, and it is all spilled outside" Several people flashed to the side at the same time, fearing that they would accidentally get on horse manure.

Tang Lie wished that they would go as far as possible, and he had just walked through the corner gate to drive the ox cart, but he didn't expect a guard to catch up again, and he said loudly: "It's better to check it out, there are too many things happening in the palace tonight, and if something goes wrong, we can't afford it."

Tang Lie's heart was pounding, fearing that Xuan Bo and Wan Yue in the dung bucket would be discovered by these guards, and he quietly made up his mind that as long as they were discovered, he would fight with them.

The guard said coldly, "Open all the dung buckets" Tang Hunt had no choice but to lift the lid on the dung bucket, the guard looked in by the light of the torch, and did not see anything abnormal, he didn't seem to give up, picked up the spear in his hand again, and poked into the dung bucket one by one.

Tang Lie's heart has already mentioned his throat, and if he continues like this, he will definitely be exposed.

The spear poked into the dung bucket where Wanyue was hiding, but there was a burst of laughter behind her, and several guards laughed at the same time: "Zhou Dawu, your ability to stir up is really powerful, and you will definitely be promoted and make a fortune another day." ” The guard was ridiculed by his companions, and immediately dismissed the idea of continuing the search, and smiled indifferently: "I just do what I am told from above" "Come and have a drink, don't let this stinking dung truck ruin the appetites of the brothers":
