Chapter 601: Open the dungeon

Under the poisonous smoke, the inner palace of the Ge family began to be silent in the middle of the night.

The fire inside was still burning, sometimes crackling.

The gate leading to the inside was also destroyed by the fire. The door was wide open, and no one came out inside, and no one from outside went in.

In the air, not only poisonous gas, but also the smell of burnt meat, it is terrible.

The people on Peng Zhou's side not only drank the antidote decoction, but also wrapped their noses in wet clothes soaked in the potion one by one to prevent them from inhaling toxic gases.

Except for those on duty, everyone else hid in the upwind plus leeward place to rest and wait.

In the castle, except for the old, weak, sick, disabled and widowed, everyone else basically ran away. There are also some bold people or diehards, who will come to the inner palace before leaving. But when they found out that the inner palace was burned, they were either happy or dumbfounded. Seeing that someone was guarding here, looking like they would not stop destroying the Ge family, the die-hard people were no longer loyal. In order to save his life, he quickly fled.

Those old, weak, sick, disabled, and lonely people, seeing that others had run away, they all went to other people's homes to find food in order to survive. When they find out that there are still good things left in other people's homes, they will have a weird smile on their faces.

It was dawn, and a layer of fog was wrapped underneath the castle. In the sky above the castle, a few dark clouds fell.

After breakfast, everyone followed behind Peng Zhou, preparing to enter the inner palace to check the situation.

The sun was like a big red ball, peeking out from the east without a single ray.

The crowd cleared a passage and entered the inside, and the scene inside was horrific.

The houses inside were basically burned down, and the able-bodied soldiers did not die in the burned houses, but in the open space in the courtyard. They were not burned to death, nor were they harmed, nor were they poisoned by fire. But! It was all thanks to Peng Zhou, who was poisoned by the poisonous grass.

There were also many burned people in the burned houses, and most of these were maids and slave laborers in the inner palace.

Everyone searched separately, and sure enough, they didn't find anyone from the Ge family.

"Sure enough, there is a dungeon!" Seeing that no one from the Ge family had been found, Lu Buwei came over and said to Peng Zhou.

Xiao Sima and others also came back to report that no one from the Ge family was found. These people who died were guards, maids, and laborers.

"Let's split up and look for it! Generally, the entrance to the underground palace is in the inner family, study and other places. Other words! Ordinary guards and others will not know that there is an underground palace. At the entrance of the dungeon, ordinary guards can't enter! Peng Zhou reminded.

The inner palace is divided into many areas, the outer part is the living and working area of the guards, and the inner is the living area of each family. But! There are many areas inside, but which area is the area where the core members live?

Everyone searched carefully, and because the houses were burned down, many places could not be entered. So! I just can't find the entrance to the dungeon, where is it hidden everywhere?

Peng Zhou didn't look carefully, he just found a high ground and stood there to check the overall situation.

I thought: No matter where the core of the Ge family lives? The original designer of the underground palace must have been designed according to the whole. So! Where should the entrance to the dungeon be?

After a general understanding of the overall pattern, Peng Zhou knew it in his heart.

Descend from the top and head straight to the backyard.

"Pengzi? Pengzi? ”

The salmon had been following Peng Zhou's side, like a guard.

Seeing Peng Zhou go straight, he guessed: It should be Peng Zi who found the entrance to the underground palace.

Hearing the salmon's shout, Peng Zhou beckoned to him without looking back.

"Pengzi!" The salmon replied and quickly followed.

Seeing that the salmon was coming, with a look of curiosity and admiration, Peng Zhou said, "I guess it's in the backyard." ”

"Backyard?" Salmon responded: "The backyard is the living area of the subordinates!" ”

"Only here is the safest."

"This?"

"There is a utility room in the backyard, which is usually stacked with miscellaneous items. And the dungeon! Generally, it will not be activated until the time of emergency. Often, once activated, it becomes obsolete. So! When the dungeon is activated, everyone who knows will die. Just now! I took a cursory look and saw that the servants and laborers in the backyard had been killed. ”

"This?" Salmon listened to Peng Zhou's explanation and was so surprised that he couldn't believe it?

He has been following Peng Zhou's side and has also seen the situation in the backyard. But! He didn't think about it.

If it was really guessed by Peng Zhou, then! He will only admire Peng Zhou even more.

"Pengzi! Brother Peng! Lu Buwei and the others searched again but couldn't find it, so they also followed, greeting from behind.

"Peng Zhou! What did you find? General Sima and others also came over and asked.

Salmon beckoned to everyone: "Peng Zi thinks: maybe in the backyard!" In which utility room in the backyard! ”

"Let's go!" Xiao Sima listened, and said with a wave of his arm.

Everyone followed Peng Zhou to the backyard, only to see the maids and others in the backyard all falling together and dying. Obviously! These people were called together and then suddenly attacked and killed.

"It should be right here!" Peng Zhou looked around and said with a finger in his hand.

Everyone looked in the direction of Peng Zhou's finger, and they had to admire one by one.

Over there! It looked like someone had cleaned it up, and everything in the house was moved out.

Why did you move the stuff out of it? In these extraordinary times, isn't it? Who has the leisure to work?

Not yet? These dongdong hide the passage to the entrance to the underground palace.

Everyone stepped forward together to clean up the burned ruins.

Really! An invisible entrance was revealed.

I've found an invisible entrance, but! How to open this entrance is still a question.

"I'll try!" One of the foursome stepped forward and said.

And then! He reached out and knocked on the invisible door, then listened. Forthwith! He stepped aside.

"Everybody help me! Clearing out the ruins over here, I thought: the switch is here! ”

With everyone's help, I quickly found the beginning.

At the beginning of the opening, the invisible door slowly opens.

After the invisible door is opened, it is directly the steps to enter the dungeon.

Liang and Chai and the others seemed a little impatient to enter inside.

"Don't! Wait a minute! There is poisonous gas in it! Peng Zhou hurriedly stopped.

Really! As soon as the door of the dungeon opened, a smell came out of it. Everyone quickly moved aside to avoid inhaling the smell.

It took a while for the smell to fade down.

At Peng Zhou's request, everyone wrapped their noses in linen soaked in medicated water. With a weapon in hand, he carefully entered inside.

This is no joke! There may be mechanisms and hidden weapons in the dungeon.
