It turned out that Wei Yao had already seen Ye Yulin and the other two. However, when he saw that Ye Yulin seemed to be interested in testing Yang Ruyan, he hid at the side and only appeared when Yang Ruyan passed the test. Ye Yulin had also noticed Wei Yao a long time ago, which was why he was so calm. Wei Yao bowed to Ye Yulin." Young Master Ye, you've taught me well indeed. Even Shi Tou is about to finish his apprenticeship."”
"How did you know my name before?" Yang Ruyan asked in surprise. I don't remember seeing you before!"
Wei Yao smiled." You're the old mister's adopted son and also Young Master Ye's only direct disciple. Who in the Bamboo Village doesn't know your name?"!”
"Wei Yao, what did you find?" Ye Yulin asked.”
Wei Yao said," I didn't see Zhang Xin's mark from the moment I left. I followed you here with the secret code of my men. I just happened to see you guys here."”
" It's just nice," Yang Ruyan said." We've lost our lead here, so we'll follow you."”
Wei Yao nodded." Then I'll lead the way. You guys follow me."”He identified the direction of the code and turned into the alley on the right, which was opposite the alley where Yang Ruyan had lost his tail. He said,""This way." Ye Yulin and Yang Ruyan followed him into the alley.
The alley led to a row of residential houses, and the few of them turned right. Wei Yao's brows gradually furrowed, and his footsteps were a little hesitant. "What did you find?" Ye Yulin asked sharply.”"This road seems to lead to the Li Residence," Wei Yao said with uncertainty.”"It can't be, right?" Yang Ruyan asked in surprise. Why was Su Jianye going to the Li Residence? Could it be that he still wanted Su Mo to help him?”Wei Yao couldn't figure out the reason either. He could only shake his head and say,""Let's go quickly and see what tricks Su Jianye is playing.”The few of them quickened their pace.
As expected, they arrived at the Li Residence. Wei Yao took a detour before he found the contact sign. It pointed to a place twenty meters away from the Li Residence's backyard. According to Wei Yao, that should be an abandoned cellar. Was there something fishy there? The three of them looked at each other and walked over carefully.
According to the markings, they should have entered the cellar. Looking from the entrance, the cellar was pitch black. Wei Yao said that this cellar was originally used to store vegetables, but a better one was built later, so no one cared about it. The cellar wasn't very deep, and he wouldn't be able to walk far before reaching the end. He couldn't figure out why Su Jianye would come here. Could it be that there was some secret in this cellar? Otherwise, how could they not hear anything when they were already at the entrance of the cellar? Ye Yulin had a few elm leaf darts in his hand, ready to be on guard at any time. Yang Ruyan and Wei Yao tensed up. Wei Yao took out a lighter from his pocket and walked in front. Ye Yulin walked at the back.
There was only the sound of their soft footsteps in the quiet cellar. This atmosphere made Yang Ruyan, who was walking in the middle, feel terrified. He tried his best to restrain himself. Wei Yao walked in a circle and suddenly stopped. Yang Ruyan, who was following closely behind him, accidentally bumped into him. Wei Yao quickly turned his head and signaled him not to make a sound. "What's the problem?" Ye Yulin asked.”Wei Yao brought the fire closer to the wall and whispered,""This place is a little strange. It feels like someone carved something on it.”Ye Yulin checked carefully. Indeed, there was a wall that was different in color from the surrounding. He knocked on the wall and took out a dart to scrape away some soil on the surface. Under the light of the fire, iron pieces appeared. He and Wei Yao looked at each other. Wei Yao said,""It's very likely that there's another secret chamber here.”Ye Yulin nodded and continued to scrape off the soil in the remaining suspicious places, revealing an iron door. Yang Ruyan wanted to push it away, but he couldn't. Ye Yulin stopped him." Don't move. There might be a trap."”Wei Yao moved the lighter around the iron door, trying to find a switch. Ye Yulin observed the iron door from the corner of his eye. Yang Ruyan took out a lighter and lit it up for Ye Yulin. Ye Yulin glanced at him and said,""You come and find it."
Ye Yulin had grown up with Old Master Yun, so he was very familiar with the design of all kinds of traps. He was also an expert in cracking traps. Yang Ruyan knew that Ye Yulin was taking the opportunity to test him, so he didn't decline. He leaned forward to take a closer look at the iron door and reached out to touch it from time to time. Ye Yulin quietly watched him do this and that.
"I found it!" Wei Yao suddenly shouted.”He pointed at a spot about a foot away from the iron gate. Ye Yulin and Yang Ruyan took a closer look. It was a small bump, just like what Ye Yulin and Yang Junru had seen at that time. "That's not it." Ye Yulin shook his head.”"How did you know, Big Brother?" Yang Ruyan asked in surprise.”"I've seen the same mechanism before, but this one doesn't open the door."”"The trap at that time was probably this kind of switch," Yang Ruyan said in realization.”Ye Yulin remained silent and continued to observe the iron gate. "Did Young Master Ye fall into a trap?" Wei Yao asked in shock. It's said that no one has ever been able to escape from the traps set by Su Jianye. It's really fortunate that you managed to pass through safely!! As expected of Young Master Ye!" Yang Ruyan said," Yes, Big Brother was originally poisoned by a poisonous arrow. Fortunately, he had the help of an expert so that he could stand here safely."”"What expert?" Wei Yao was surprised. "I'm not sure." Yang Ruyan shook his head. When I went to Big Brother's side, he couldn't find any wounds on his body, but Big Brother said that he was indeed poisoned by the arrow and lost consciousness. Without the help of an expert, how could he recover!!”Wei Yao still had some questions. Ye Yulin said,""If you have time to discuss this, why don't you quickly find a way to open the door?”Yang Ruyan quickly agreed submissively and secretly stuck out his tongue at Wei Yao. Wei Yao smiled and focused on the wall in front of him again. Yang Ruyan continued to study the iron gate. Ye Yulin just quietly watched the two of them work hard.
This time, it was Yang Ruyan who shouted,"Big Brother, there's something strange here!"!”
In the middle of the iron door was a concave area shaped like a dragon. " It seems like we need the corresponding key to open this iron door." Wei Yao frowned.”
"I think so too." Yang Ruyan nodded. We don't have the key, what do we do now?”
"When your subordinates follow others, how far do they usually stay from the person being followed?" Ye Yulin asked Wei Yao.”
"Normally, they're about 30 feet apart."”
"How did they follow Su Jianye this time?" Ye Yulin asked again.”
"When I went to the courtyard, I secretly arranged for a few people to monitor Su Jianye and ordered them not to let Su Jianye find out." They definitely had the ability to follow Su Jianye without being discovered.”
"So, did no one report to you that Su Jianye took Little Sister away?" Yang Ruyan couldn't help asking.”
"I only told them to follow Su Jianye and leave a secret signal along the way. I didn't ask them to report back to me." Wei Yao shook his head. So I didn't know that Miss had been taken away by Su Jianye.”
"Your subordinates will definitely be loyal to your orders and won't lose Su Jianye." Ye Yulin looked at the iron gate and said. Are you sure they went in through this door?”
Yang Ruyan was a little confused." If we don't enter from here, is there another place?" he asked.”Wei Yao suddenly thought of something." If they really went in through this door, then why was he still disguised when we found him?" So we can be sure that they didn't enter from here, but somewhere else.”
Yang Ruyan also understood." That's right! Why didn't I think of that?" he exclaimed. If it was just Su Jianye, he might have left someone behind to disguise himself and confuse us. However, Wei Yao's men are still behind us. If they enter, they will definitely leave this door open to make it easier for us to enter. The reason why this door exists is to mislead us.”
"Let's search again," said Ye Yulin.
Wei Yao and Yang Ruyan perked up. They raised their fire scrolls and looked around the cellar. Ye Yulin stood in front of the iron gate and suddenly shouted,"" Don't move, Stone!!" Yang Ruyan stopped abruptly and looked back at Ye Yulin in confusion. Ye Yulin gestured for him to look at his feet. Yang Ruyan lowered his head and took two steps back. A deep pit suddenly appeared under his feet. It was pitch-black and looked quite terrifying. Wei Yao went over and lit a torch. He found that there was a staircase below and smiled."If it wasn't for young master Ye's reminder, I'm afraid we would still be thinking about how to open that door and wouldn't have found this entrance.”Yang Ruyan nodded and said with admiration,"" Big Brother is so awesome!!" Ye Yulin maintained his usual expression and said,"Let's go down and take a look."
