Daming: The system rejected my request for salted fish

It was unknown how long the carriage had been traveling, nor was there any way of estimating which route it had taken.

Anyway, by the time the hood and black cloth on his face were removed, he was already in a tunnel.

Although my eyes were still blurry and I couldn't see the surroundings clearly, I could clearly smell the smell of soil.

After his eyes regained their sight, Shen Lin could see the situation around him clearly, which was almost the same as he had expected.

This is indeed a tunnel, and the surrounding soil has been compacted by someone.

Just as Shen Lin was looking around, one of the two expressionless men spoke.

"Follow us."

Then, led by the two men, the group walked in the dark passage for about three minutes.

Although the master was not very good, Shen Lin could feel that he was walking at an angle downward all the way.

Then not long after, the view in front of me suddenly became clear. This was a place similar to a temple hall.

There is an intricately carved statue close to the wall, but it is impossible to tell from the outside who it is dedicated to.

Below the statue is a large stone-carved chair with a figure sitting on it.

Although torches were lit on the walls of the hall, the light was still dim and the figure could not be seen clearly.

However, in this situation, even a fool could guess that this person must be Dharma King Qingyang.

When Shen Lin and the other three approached, Dharma King Qingyang, who was sitting on a stone chair, slowly spoke.

"Zheng Ze, why are you coming to me instead of staying in Yangzhou? Is there something going on in Hongyang?"

Dharma King Qingyang spoke in a nice tone, as if he was chatting with an old friend.

However, after hearing this, Master Zheng sighed deeply and his expression became depressed.

"Your Majesty, to be honest, Zheng Ze has come to Rencheng to escape disaster. I beg Your Majesty Qingyang to take him in!"

"Escape? Are you kidding me?"

Hearing Master Zheng's answer, Dharma King Qingyang shook his head and laughed, then continued:

"Don't tell me that Hongyang, who has always treated you like a treasure, wants to kill you. If that's the case, I can't protect you."

"It's not that my young master wants to kill me, but he met with an accident and has now returned to my mother's arms."

"What!!"

Dharma King Qingyang stood up in surprise and looked at Master Zheng with disbelief, obviously shocked by the news.

At this time, Master Zheng spoke again:

"Now that things have come to this, I'll just say it straight! Actually, my young master is the illegitimate son of the Jiangnan Lu clan leader."

"Before, the Lu family was wiped out by someone, and those people found out through some means that the young master was a descendant of Lu Yi."

"At the same time, my young master also found out the real culprit of this attack, so he used the same trick to lure those people to Yangzhou."

Speaking of this, Master Zheng's eyes turned red and misty for some reason.

"Because the mastermind behind this is so powerful, the young master has already prepared a ship and will come to Rencheng to find you after the matter is completed."

"For this reason, he specifically planned to trap and kill the person behind the scenes, but who would have thought that he would miss a step and be found by them."

"Although I survived the disaster, my leg is completely broken, and my young master, he..."

After saying just two sentences, Master Zheng's voice choked again.

It took a while to recover and continue:

"If I hadn't returned to the ship after escaping and ordered it to sail immediately, I would have died in Yangzhou!"

After listening to what Master Zheng said, Dharma King Qingyang was silent for a long time before he asked a question.

"You said the person behind this has a powerful background, but do you know who he is?"

"Know!"

Master Zheng nodded and immediately gave the answer.

"The most favored person around Zhu Yuanzhang now is Changlebo - Wei Wu!"

"It's him!!"

Upon hearing Wei Wu's name, King Qingyang couldn't help but frown.

But at this time he could understand why Han Yao fell this time.
