The middle level of the mine was only halfway up the mountain, with vines hanging down and the ground clean from rain, with clear mud accumulating in the potholes.

Ning Xiusu followed the girl in green clothes, stepping into the mine with each pothole. After a while, they came to a strange place.

The interior of the winding cave was hollowed out to create an open space, which looked like an ancient house. When the door was opened, it looked like an ordinary study.

"But this isn't the top floor, and it's not an interrogation room."

She stared blankly at the scene in front of her, and suddenly pointed at the bookshelf.

"I know you're looking for someone just like me."

Ning Xiusu saw that the furnishings here were elegant, and the bookshelves were filled with numerous ancient books, some of which were covered with dust.

But there was a stack of thick books on the bookshelf, which was very neat and clean, as if someone moved them frequently.

"The interrogation room is in the back."

The little girl looked at him, her beautiful face full of innocence.

Is there a mechanism on the bookshelf?

His heart was moved, and he stepped back cautiously, "Girl, you should open it first."

"I'm not called girl, I'm called Miemie."

As she spoke, her green skirt moved slightly, and she walked to the bookshelf and turned a stack of books inward.

Sure enough, this stack of seemingly ordinary books on the bookshelf, accompanied by a few "clicks", the entire bookshelf slowly slid to one side.

Behind the bookshelf, there is a stone wall with a secret passage in the wall, which is a deep path.

There really is a secret passage...

"Right inside."

Miemie said this, motioning him to go in and take a look.

He was slightly startled by the sound coming from out of nowhere. The sound in the secret passage behind him was like marbles rolling, and suddenly the study was dark.

Suddenly, the little girl disappeared.

Where is this person?

Ning Xiusu had just lit the fire stick when someone suddenly pushed him with a palm.

"I helped you, but you also have to help me find my sister."

He staggered back half a step and stepped directly into the secret passage. The stone wall behind him suddenly closed tightly. He stepped forward and lifted the stone wall, but it was too heavy.

This place is like a narrow gap, only big enough for one person, and the inner wall is inlaid with phosphorus stone, which emits a soft light and illuminates the stone steps leading to the secret room.

The little girl was acting really weird just now... I'm afraid she was tricked.

Since we were looking for the interrogation room, Ning Xiusu thought, he walked up the stone steps.

It was roughly like walking around a mountain and a pagoda. After walking for about an incense stick of time, we finally arrived at a wide corridor.

After extinguishing the fire, some mottled bloodstains and scratches could be seen on the four walls, as well as an exquisitely shaped copper lamp hanging there.

Going further, there were many supervisors coming and going, the sound of whips was like thunder and lightning, the wailing along the way was terrifying, and there were torture chambers on both sides.

When he reached the end and stepped into a dim interrogation room, Ning Xiusu's heart tightened. He saw a strange man in bloody clothes, wearing a copper-headed ghost mask, humming a tune as he approached him.

"You guys from the lower level, what are you doing here at this hour?"

Ning Xiusu's eyes fell on his waist. The jade scepter was inscribed with Bai Gui and had a red tassel. According to the rank system in the mine, this man was a superior.

He quickly bowed and said, "Bao Zuojian, I will interrogate you."

"Oh, you haven't even reached the required level yet, but you're already trying to get some blood?"

Ning Xiusu was just talking nonsense and was worried about saying the wrong thing.

Unexpectedly, the man said, "I have a tricky problem here, please come and learn from me."

Ning Xiusu followed the man in with gritted teeth, pushed open a heavy iron door, and saw an exquisitely carved sandalwood table with several interrogation tools placed on it.

This specification is like a closed chamber.

In the center of the secret room, Hua Jianbai had some bloodstains on his body. He was trapped by a secret mechanism, his hands and feet were pinned down, and he was tied to a brass chair.

His heart twitched suddenly, and his eyes fell on the hidden mechanism of the chair. This mechanism contained a sharp blade, and once the mechanism was triggered, the blade would pop out.

When Ning Xiusu saw this scene, he felt as if an invisible hand was squeezing his heart tightly.

Hua Jianbai looked up and saw the strange men entering the secret room. Both of them were wearing copper ghost masks, which flashed strange light under the copper lamp, making people shudder.

He gnashed his teeth and said, "You idiot, let me go if you dare."

Bai Gui sneered, "Boy, you're very brave. During this period, you've actually killed three supervisors. You dare to challenge authority, but do you know that killing people in a mine is a taboo?"

"Bah! Aren't you the ones killing people?"

Hua Jianbai raised his eyebrows, struggling to open the mechanism but unable to do so, and his face looked even more arrogant and domineering.

The man slammed the sandalwood table hard, causing the torture instruments to make a noise.

"Boy, it seems that you are not afraid of death, but are you not afraid of torture?"

He looked at Hua Jianbai, sizing him up with his naked gaze, then tilted his head and signaled the person next to him to get the torture instruments.

Ning Xiusu took a deep breath. Exposing himself at this moment might not be the best option.

He stepped forward and handed over the torture instrument.

Hanamibai saw him pick up the boning knife. The sharp blade looked extremely terrifying under the light of the copper lamp.

"You lunatics, you kidnapped people to the mine and treated them at will. You have no regard for the law and justice of the king. Do you disregard the laws of Dayan?"

"The Nanzhao Kingdom must follow the laws of Dayan, but there are no such rules in Qianluo Mountain."

"Rubbish!"

Hua Jianbai was still furious. He was the kind of person who would get angrier the more afraid he was, and the angrier he got, the less afraid he was.

The eyes under the bronze ghost mask were vicious, and he suddenly stabbed the boning knife forward, as if he wanted to dig out the eyes.

"Wait a minute."

Hua Jian saw that the feathers of her eyelashes were clearly visible, and she shuddered violently, seeing the cold sharp blade just stopping on her eyelashes.

Ning Xiusu tried hard to keep his voice calm and not reveal any clues.

"Bai Zuojian, bloody matters have always been left to the lower levels."

The man's eyes were as sharp as cold iron. After listening to what Hua Jianbai heard, he laughed three times. Hua Jianbai found it irritating. The man's laughter was hoarse and unpleasant, and extremely weird.

He said to Ning Xiusu:

"Okay, you're aware now. Go cut this fool in half, or dig out his eyes and pour out his brains."

Ning Xiusu took the boning knife seemingly calmly and walked towards Hua Jianbai.

Hua Jianbai didn't know who this person was, he just thought he was a pervert who tortured people. His expression changed slightly, and the fear in his expression was just captured.

Bai Gui said coldly: "Look, you are also afraid of becoming blind. There are so many martial artists in this world, but I have never seen a blind martial artist."

"Are you sick?"

Hua Jianbai was so frightened that he couldn't help but grip the handle of the bronze chair tightly, and his fingers changed color.

Ning Xiusu's heart trembled, but he had to remain calm and seize an opportunity.

I had just stood there for so long, my mind was full of thoughts, and I had already seen clearly the mechanism on the brass chair.

"A perverted murderer who only dares to use dirty tricks and poison people behind the scenes. He's bringing shame upon my grandmother!"

Hua Jianbai shouted and closed his eyes. It seemed that if he could not see the cold light of the boning knife, he would feel a little less afraid.

A cold light flashed by, and the moment the boning knife was about to slash towards him, he lowered his wrist and changed direction.

With a crisp "click" sound, the boning knife accurately picked up the gear of the mechanism and destroyed the mechanism on the brass chair.

Hua Jianbai was stunned for a moment. Seeing this, Bai Gui suddenly raised his sleeve arrow towards the chair.

It was like a dark shadow flashing before my eyes, and the sound of a crossbow arrow breaking through the air was like lightning.

Suddenly, someone stood in front of him. With a "puff", a huge force like a hammer passed through his chest quickly, and suddenly red blood splashed out.

The blood-stained crossbow arrow pierced the wall behind him. He staggered due to inertia and was firmly nailed to the mottled wall.

Hua Jianbai jumped out of the mechanism and saw the man's mask fall to the ground. His pupils shook violently and he froze for a moment.

After a moment, he was so frightened that his soul flew to the sky and he shouted at the top of his lungs:

"Big villain!"

Ning Xiusu was in so much pain that he couldn't speak. Blood kept flowing out, staining his black clothes and dripping onto the bluestone floor. It was so beautiful, like falling plum blossoms.

"The auspicious day of our Lord is approaching. Those who disobey shall die!"

Bai Gui said this viciously, and suddenly pressed down a white jade mechanism on the wall.

"Now the time has come, so you should stay here and feed the ghosts together."

As the machine started to move, countless iron cages appeared from the top of the secret room. Bai Gui turned and walked out of the iron door.

"If you want to die, don't even think about getting out!"

Hua Jianbai was about to rush forward like a madman. Bai Gui was startled and blew the black whistle at him.

His body choked and he felt like his brain was going to explode. He saw many supervisors rushing towards him, all raising their hidden arrows towards him.

I don't know if it was anger or adrenaline, but I narrowly avoided the arrow, even though my whole body was shaking with pain.

The sleeve arrow cut a wound on the waist, and the severe pain made the man move faster.

When the sandalwood table shattered, Bai Gui was picked up and thrown to the floor with a bang as hard as he could.

The boning knife flashed with a cold light, and wherever the figure went, the supervisors were beheaded and torn apart, and red color rose up like ink.

Bai Gui, under the bronze ghost mask, was pinched until his eyes popped out, and he waved his hands around for a while. As Hua Jian defeated him, he raised his knife and stabbed it between his eyebrows, causing his brain to burst and a bloody mess to spread all over the ground.
