In a world where there are more men than women, I am spoiled

Chapter 745 Discovering the secret passage

Meanwhile, Xingchen and Sun Yibai in the Jin family's manor were checking the houses one by one.

The two came out of the last room and found nothing.

"What's that room over there?" Xingchen asked, pointing to a separate room at the back.

"My dear, this room was probably used to store goods. We have never moved it. When the master bought this yard, he also came here to check it out, but he didn't find anything."

"Yibai, let's go in and take a look." Xingchen said.

"it is good!"

The two entered the house and looked at the cargo shelves on both sides. There was almost nothing in the house, and Xingchen frowned.

"Mr. Xingce, is there any problem?" Sun Yibai asked Xingchen who was frowning.

He felt that there was nothing in this room. Looking at such a large area, there was nothing except a few shelves.

"Something feels wrong." Xingchen said and turned around and walked out of the room. He stepped back a few steps and carefully looked at the size of the house. He tiptoed onto the roof, observed it carefully, and then went back into the house.

Xingchen entered the room and walked to the shelf against the innermost wall.

"Yibai, come with me and move this shelf away."

After hearing this, Sun Yibai immediately walked over. After the two of them moved the cabinet away, Xingchen began to knock on the wall, and Sun Yibai stood aside and knocked gently as well.

"This wall doesn't look like it has any mechanisms." After Sun Yibai finished speaking, Xingchen knocked on a brick, and the sound was a little wrong. He pressed it lightly and a very light sound came out.

Xingchen pushed lightly and a hole appeared in the wall.

"Is this a secret room? Didn't the officials who sealed off the manor find it?" Sun Yibai asked in shock.

"I think so. The layout of this secret room is very clever. If you don't observe the appearance of the house from the outside, you can't tell that it has a secret room at all."

"Let's go in and take a look. If the abducted woman in the mountains is related to the Jin family, this manor must have a secret passage or something." Xingchen explained and stepped into the secret room.

The two people who entered saw the things hanging on the wall of the secret room, their eyebrows frowned, and Sun Yibai's face even turned slightly red.

There was only a bed next to it, with ropes tied to the head of the bed and faint traces of blood.

"How dare Xing Cejun and the others treat a woman like this?"

Xingchen continued to observe the layout of the house carefully, glanced at the shocked Sun Yibai and said, "This...is actually normal. The court protects women, but some officials from noble families imprison women for the sake of their offspring. There are many secret cases."

"In the underworld, it is common to buy and sell women."

"Otherwise, the Phoenix Feather Guards of Nanfengguan would not have appeared."

"But nowadays women are scarce, and the fertility rate is low across the country. How many men can't find suitable wives? How dare they treat women like this?"

Sun Yibai said angrily, his face looking very ugly. He didn't expect that someone in the dark would dare to do this.

Xingchen looked at the angry Sun Yibai and didn't know what to say to him. There were too many unfair things under the power. Women were scarce, but for powerful families, they could still find women who could give birth to their children.

"Go and see if there is any problem with the wall over there. There is most likely a secret passage here." Xingchen ordered.

Sun Yibai sighed and said to Xingchen, "I lost my composure. I'll go now."

After that, the two searched the room for a long time but found nothing.

"Of course there is!" Sun Yibai said as he pulled down the bed curtain. Immediately the bed board moved, revealing an opening for one person to get down.

"Xing Cejun, is this a secret passage?"

Xingchen flashed over and asked, "What did you just move?"

"I...I just pulled the bed curtain." Sun Yibai said and pulled it again, and found that the bed board was closed.

"You are so lucky." Xingchen said with a smile.

He had just searched the bed three or four times but couldn't find the mechanism.

"Let's go down and take a look."

The two men entered the secret passage and as soon as they entered a room, they found the room was full of boxes. When they opened them, they were all gold ingots.

"A lot of money!"

"No wonder the Queen didn't find much money when she seized the Jin family. It turns out that it's all here."

"How much would this be if converted into military pay?" Sun Yibai sighed. Are the officials in Fengdu so greedy?

"Let's go and take a look ahead."

The other secret room looked like an interrogation room, with many torture instruments.

After that was a long corridor. The two kept walking in. After walking for more than half an hour, a stone door appeared in front of them with a button next to it.

Xingchen walked forward and pressed the button. After the stone door opened, Xingchen walked out and found that it was a dark cave. However, the outside of the cave was piled with stones, and a ray of light could be vaguely seen from the cracks in the stones.

The two men walked over and reached out to move the stones away.

When the two went out, several men in black immediately surrounded them. Almost at the same time, the men in black rushed towards Sun Yibai and Xingchen, and the two began to fight back.

. . . . . . . . . . . .

Not far away, Chen Jingshu, Lin Zixu and Cui Yiyang had just met, and the rescued woman was pale, her clothes were dirty, and she was huddled together shivering.

A few people noticed some movement in the woods over there, and Lin Zixu said, "There's some movement over there, I'll go check it out."

"Zixu..." Before Cui Yiyang could call out to him, Lin Zixu had already disappeared.

At this time, Xingchen and Sun Yibai, who were surrounded, cooperated well. After a while, the men in black were at a disadvantage and several of them died. Sun Yibai kicked one of the men in black and sent him flying. The man hit a tree directly and fell to the ground, spitting out blood.

Xingchen controlled one of them, quickly and swiftly broke his jaw, and knocked him unconscious.

Sun Yibai was stunned at the side, what a quick movement!

Xingchen looked at the dazed Sun Yibai and said helplessly, "Yibai, go see if the guy you kicked is still angry?"

After hearing this, Sun Yibai went over immediately and found that the man had a weak breath.

"Xing Cejun, your breath is weak."

Xingchen took out a bottle of medicine from his chest and threw it to Sun Yibai.

"Remove his jaw and feed him the pills. We'll have one more person alive so we can get the answers out of them."

Sun Yibai obeyed and prepared to remove the man's jaw. However, it was his first time doing this and he did not use the right amount of strength, causing the unconscious man to groan.

Xingchen walked over and took a look, his mouth twitching slightly: "Looking at Yibai's method, I guess he doesn't do this often?"

Sun Yibai was a little embarrassed. He really didn't do this. He was usually doing training and patrolling. There was no need to remove his chin, right?

Xingchen noticed Sun Yibai's embarrassment, squatted down, quickly pinched the black-clothed man's mouth, flicked the pill into his mouth, and then gently applied force with his hand, and the black-clothed man's jaw was removed.
