C128 Rush out of the Maze

According to what Miao Hwa said, there was indeed a very hidden passage here. This passageway was only as wide as a person. Therefore, only one person could pass through each time.

Fortunately, the road was very short, and it didn't take long for more than a hundred people to walk over. Miao Hwa's shout was still echoing behind him. What Zuo Xiping could do was stop them from making meaningless sacrifices.

When everyone knew what Miao Hwa had done, they became silent. They didn't know that Miao Hwa was actually such a person. No wonder he was willing to give up his reputation for the sake of his child.

Sacrificing his own life for the sake of so many people. In Miao Hwa's opinion, all of this was worth it. What they needed to do now was to repay Miao Hwa. At least, they could help him raise the child into an adult.

Although the passageway was very secretive, it was actually very simple. Because it was hidden in a few mirrors. This mirror was different from the other mirrors. Only the angle. The angle it was placed at just happened to be able to block a passage behind it, and it could also very well fit in with the wall itself. So after knowing the method, it was very easy to find it.

The suicide maze that Dugu Xiu painstakingly built became vulnerable because of Miao Hwa's betrayal. However, they were still glad because at least they did not have to face those vampires now.

At the end of the tunnel, there was an open space. The empty space was surrounded by windows. There were some wine jugs under the windows. The lid of the wine jugs had not been opened yet, and there was a layer of dust on it. It seemed that they had been here for quite some time.

Looking at the wine jars, almost every window was open. It seemed that because the height of the floor was too high, the wind here was very strong. Could this place be a place that Dugu Xiu had forgotten about? Many people were thinking about this problem with the mentality of being lucky, but Zuo Xiping was not optimistic.

Because along the way, every time they encountered difficulties, it was enough to push them into a desperate situation, and now, it would not be so easy to escape. He looked around him. Although there was an open space and a wine jar, there was no exit, nor was there a staircase that led up the stairs.

Could this be the top of the entire building? This was also impossible because Five Phoenix Brothel was the second tallest building in the entire Gusu. Looking out from the window, it definitely did not reach that height. In the past, every time one went to the top floor, they were the rarest of the rarest. They were usually not here to eat. They were here to watch the scenery.

Brother could clearly see the situation in Gusu City here. There were antique pavilions and pavilions, various manors and gardens, the bustling Pingjiang Road, and the crowd on the front street.

There was also the mysterious sword pool. The Tiger Hill that was filled with Buddhist thoughts, the bronze bell in the Cold Mountain Temple, and the Ferry Bridge. If one looked carefully, they would be able to clearly see those young monks who were sitting on the ground and chanting scriptures. However, in their eyes, these people were as big as ants.

This was the true pride of Five Phoenix Brothel, but it was still not as tall as the Nalan family's Ling Long Villa. There was also an explanation for this, because the Nalan family had helped Shen Dongyang a lot in his business, especially when he was opening up the Silk Road. Whether it was his connections or money, the Nalan family had used them all.

Therefore, Shen Dongyang had always been grateful to Old Master Nalan. Even though no one knew who had the most wealth in Gusu, Shen Dongyang had already announced to everyone that he would never be able to compare with the huge family business of the Nalan family.

Even the newly built Five Phoenix Brothel was half a level shorter than the Exquisite Villa. There were many stories about this. Shen Dongyang would never be ungrateful to those who had helped him, just like Dugu Kuang.

Back then, Dugu Kuang had helped him a lot. Up until now, he had always thought that what Dugu Kuang had done was right. This wasn't blind worship. It was because he knew Dugu Kuang's style of doing things and his personality.

People like him who had been in the martial arts world for many years rarely made wrong judgments. Especially people like Dugu Kuang who didn't know how to make mistakes. In Shen Dongyang's eyes, Dugu Kuang was the person who never made mistakes, but this time, was he wrong or not? Shen Dongyang fell into deep thought.

His daughter was locked up in the so-called second residence of the Murong family, and this was also Dugu Kuang's order. Because only in this way could Shen Qiutong truly stay away from this matter. The further away she was from this matter, the safer she would be. But he knew very well why Shen Qiutong was locked up there. That was because she wanted to help Xiao Nanfeng.

Since Xiao Nanfeng knew the truth of the matter, then he would definitely find a way to settle this matter. The most important thing was to tell Dugu Xiu to bring it out and bring it to justice. This was related to one problem, and that was Dugu Kuang's attitude.

Who could guarantee that Dugu Kuang wouldn't betray the world for his daughter? If he made that decision, how terrifying would that be?

Firstly, no one knew how powerful Dugu Kuang was. Secondly, since Shen Qiutong and Murong Ke were locked up, who could help Xiao Nanfeng solve this problem?

Xiao Nanfeng was now a loner. If he didn't know how powerful Dugu Xiu was, Shen Dongyang would be the first one to help Xiao Nanfeng. But he couldn't because of his actions. In a family. . . This family had a few hundred years of history in Gusu City, and was a very influential figure.

If he offended the person behind Dugu Xiu because of his negligence, it was unknown whether he could protect this family or not. So the most important decision he made was to completely listen to Dugu Kuang's orders.

But it was different now because his daughter suddenly came back and was injured. Shen Dongyang only had one daughter. He was breathing heavily like a madman, as if he was very dissatisfied with this arrangement. Why did his daughter break one of her arms not long after she went out because she had listened to someone else's advice?

Shen Dongyang's hand had just touched Shen Qiutong's hand, and tears almost flowed down because the bones on her wrist were almost crushed. If he wanted to recover, he had to grow another bone that was exactly the same.

This was obviously impossible, but Shen Dongyang was an experienced person. He said lightly: "It's fine. Luckily I came back early. I will think of a way for you. You lie down and rest first. "

His words sounded very unconfident. Because what he said was basically telling her. Shen Qiutong seemed to have noticed the defense on Shen Dongyang's face. She sighed and said, "Dad, I want to know how much you participated in. "

Shen Dongyang widened his eyes and looked at Shen Qiutong. He did not expect his daughter to ask such a question because even he himself was not clear about it. The only thing he knew was to follow Dugu Kuang's instructions.

After he instructed his daughter to lead her to that place, he could think of a way to solve the problem. That was why he agreed to this matter. However, the situation was completely different now. Shen Dongyang was so angry that his fist had already cracked.

"Dugu Kuang! Dugu Kuang! Why did you lie to me?!" Shen Dongyang kept asking this question in his heart, but there seemed to be a scale in his heart.

He smiled and said to Shen Qiutong, "Dad didn't do anything. Dad just wanted to ensure your safety at the highest position. Don't ask about anything else. I don't know either. "

Shen Qiutong fell into silence. Her eyes were filled with terrifying despair. Shen Dongyang could not bear to see it. He turned his face away. He did not want to see such a scene.

He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to bear it. Once things became like this, many things would become difficult. They might even come to Shen family to cause trouble. One should know that behind Dugu Xiu, besides Dugu Kuang, there might also be a powerful Nalan family!

Although the Nalan family did not participate in the matters of the martial world in name, the truth was that they had always interfered in the matters of the martial world. The Nalan family basically had the records of all the sects and people in the martial world.

According to them, the Nalan family was the Bai Xiaosheng of the Pugilistic World. Who could master such a powerful set of information? No matter which martial arts expert they faced, they would be able to handle it with ease, because at least this way, they would have enough information to mobilize. Moreover, everyone had secrets that they could not reveal to others, and they would also be able to grasp all of these.

Therefore, sometimes, when dealing with a person in the pugilistic world, he did not need to use any martial arts. As long as he read a small part of his secret, he would bow his head and be unable to stand up again.

Then, the most terrifying thing about the Nalan family would be. . . Could this be all? In fact, it was not the case. Old Master Nalan had four invisible bodyguards by his side. Although they were nominally bodyguards, they would go out and do business for the Nalan family for a long time.

Especially the business of the Escort Office. It was precisely because they came and went without a trace. Thus, they would never be able to defeat them. For so many years, no one knew their appearance or their age. They would always be by Old Master Nalan's side. Even if it was the outhouse, they would always be by his side.

It was extremely difficult to deal with the Nalan family. This was the result Shen Dongyang had gotten after being in contact with the Nalan family for so many years. Although the Shen family was one of the top families in the Gusu City, none of them had any promising future. Those who had good prospects had been transferred to do business, so there were very few people who could participate in the affairs of the martial world.

However, the Nalan family was different. Their family was the biggest family in the Gusu, and it had been passed down for more than a hundred years. All these years, they had come into contact with people from all walks of life. Therefore, they had over a hundred years of connections.

This was something that Shen Dongya couldn't learn. After all, the revival of the Shen family was only possible because Shen Dongyang knew how to make money. Compared to the Nalan family, the foundation of the Shen family was much weaker. The Nalan family was like an aristocratic family that was passed down from the ancestors, but the Shen family was like a nouveau riche.

The same kind of wine was placed in a wine jar of the same size. One bottle was twenty years old wine that was dug out from the ground. The other bottle was rice wine that was easily cooked using grain.

The selling price of these two types of wine was different. So if the Nalan family was the 20 year old wine pot, then. . . Then the Shen family would be the new jar of wine. Shen Qiutong expressed her sadness towards her father's attitude. She knew that the Shen family must have been involved in the conspiracy, and because they couldn't get away from it, they fell deeper and deeper into it, unable to withdraw.

Shen Dongyang glanced at the butterfly flowers outside the window from the corner of his eye. The edges of the flowers were pretty. So it was very easy to attract Shen Dongyang, who was nearby. He changed the topic and said, "The flowers and plants your mother planted are still alive. It's all thanks to you taking care of them! These two days, stay at home and take good care of your illness. It's also good to have a look at these flowers and plants when you have time. "

Shen Qiutong lowered her head. She knew that her father was perfunctory to her. However, she still did not give up. When she came, she saw Xiao Nanfeng's confident look. She felt that if the Shen family fell too deep into it, they would also suffer.

She didn't know why, but she was very confident in Xiao Nanfeng. She believed that Xiao Nanfeng would be able to solve the problem. No matter who it was, it would be very difficult for Xiao Nanfeng to achieve this kind of trust.

Xiao Nanfeng was standing on a high roof drinking wine. He was drinking here because he wanted to observe every movement of Dugu family from the best angle. Although this behavior was a bit excessive, it was indeed a good idea. He had a panoramic view of everything in Dugu family, but the strange thing was that Dugu Kuang had not gone out for the past few days.

Could it be that Dugu Kuang didn't like going out at all? This couldn't be justified. After all, this was a man in his fifties. He wasn't old enough to not like to walk. However, it seemed like this was indeed the case. Dugu Kuang suddenly seemed to have vanished from the face of the earth.

This had made Xiao Nanfeng anxious. He knew that if Dugu Kuang went to find those people who had been rescued, the consequences would be unimaginable. Although Dugu Kuang's strength was questionable, he had been staying in the top five of Gusu.

It was a miracle that a swordsman from the Jianghu could maintain a record for so long even though he had not come out for more than ten years. Shen Dongyang's name had long been erased from the roster, but Dugu Kuang's name had been drifting in the Gusu City for the past 20 years.

If Dugu Kuang had gone to that place, had he already arrived there and settled everything? Obviously, something was not right, because he found that although Dugu Kuang was nowhere to be found, there was still no trace of him. Dugu Ming often brought little melon seeds into his father's room.

Little melon seeds' stomach was still not good, even though many poisonous insects were forced out. However, there were still some left. He really did not know what Dugu Kuang did for little melon seeds. Although Xiao Nanfeng did not have much contact with Little melon seed, his love for this child was still very sincere.

He always thought that this was Nalan Yan's child, so he treated this child as his own. Little melon seeds were not the child of another woman. He was the child of the woman Xiao Nanfeng loved the most.

Every day, when he saw Dugu Kuang running around the Dugu family, he felt a wave of discomfort in his heart. When was he going to start? Could it be that if Dugu Xiu didn't show up, then they wouldn't be able to solve the problem?

Xiao Nanfeng fell into deep thought. He needed a mouthful of wine now, but he had already finished it. Just as he got up and was about to go buy some wine to drink, he caught a glimpse of someone out of the corner of his eye. This person looked around the back door of the Dugu family. After confirming that no one was following him, he sneaked into the Dugu family.

However, it did not seem like he was sneaking in. After entering, his pace became much lighter. He went straight to Dugu Kuang's bedroom, and the surrounding guards did not stop him. Who exactly was this person? What exactly did he want to say to Dugu Kuang?
