    Chapter 136: Desperate Situation and Deception

    Qi Lin jumped into the hole. After a vertical descent of about three to five meters, his feet had already touched the wet and soft ground. At the same time, a fishy smell of fresh soil penetrated his nose. It seemed that the hole was indeed dug.  Soon, the people digging the holes must be the rat men scurrying underground.

    The cave was pitch black, and Tie Gu, Deng Ruozhi, and Chen Ruoqiao were no longer anywhere to be seen. Qi Lin had no choice but to walk forward quickly along the passage that turned downwards.

    Before walking a few steps, Qi Lin suddenly felt his head brush against the upper wall of the cave entrance. The cave seemed to be slowly narrowing. After walking for a while, the cave continued to shrink. At this time, he could only crawl on all four limbs. Qi Lin felt secretly in his heart.  I thought, this posture is no different from that of a mouse, but for a living person who is used to walking upright, it is extremely awkward, cannot speed up, and is extremely energy-consuming.

    Thanks to the occasional rustling noise or a few vague human voices coming from the front, Qi Lin did not think he had actually strayed into the rat hole and returned halfway.  After crawling on all fours for four to five hundred meters, the sound of gurgling water suddenly echoed in Qilin's eardrums.

    Qi Lin was puzzled, but he kept moving, and soon he saw the slightly reflective surface of the water. After crawling for a moment, Qi Lin suddenly realized that the hole had reached the end, and his body suddenly poked out of the hole, with less than a person under him.  Meters away, there is a wide underground river. Although it is not clear in the darkness, the sound of rushing water indicates that the flow of this underground river is very fast.

    "**, these rat men not only know how to dig holes, but they also know the underground water veins. It seems that the energy of the Demon Cult must not be underestimated!" Qi Lin felt a little surprised in his heart, but this underground river was just passing through, and he should  Which direction to go?  Moreover, there are no boats in the river, so you can¡¯t swim, right?

    Just when Qi Lin was in trouble, Deng Ruozhi's rough voice suddenly came from the lower reaches of the underground river.

    "Finally, the uncle caught one, and he is still a little leader! Tell the uncle, why don't you go into the water with them, you know that falling into the uncle's hands is not much more comfortable than soaking in cold water, let's see if I don't smash your bird's head  " Before he finished speaking, a crackling sound sounded, as if he was being slapped in the face.

    "Brother Deng Xian, stop it. Let's keep him alive for the time being. It won't be too late to interrogate him slowly!"

    When Qi Lin heard the voice of Tie Gu, he couldn't help shouting: "Brother Tie, wait a minute, little brother, I'm coming soon!"

    After finishing speaking, Qi Lin jumped into the underground river and swam downstream relying on his good water skills developed in the army.

    "Good brother, we have a small boat here!" Iron Bone's slightly surprised voice came immediately.

    Qi Lin paddled hard and swam forward with force, not only because he was anxious to catch up, but also because the underground river was extremely cold and biting. After swimming a distance of 200 to 300 meters, he was pulled aboard by Tiegu.  By the time, Qi Lin already felt that he was about to freeze.

    Tiegu had already experienced the water temperature of the underground river. He immediately raised a hand and pressed it on Qi Lin's big acupoint. In an instant, a warm current poured into Qi Lin's body. Qi Lin's trembling stopped immediately and he was able to take stock of this moment.  This little boat I'm on.

    It is said to be a boat just because it can float on the water, but its oval-like, headless and tailless shape definitely does not look like a boat at all. Coupled with the almost full cover of the boat canopy and the material that looks like cowhide and animal bones, this  The boat is more like a cowhide raft used for floating, and it looks a bit like a rubber boat.

    Although it looks ordinary, it is extremely effective to float in this winding underground river. The tough fur is not afraid of colliding with the rugged and protruding rocks on the river bank, and the excellent wrapping canopy can prevent water from splashing in.  Moreover, it has a good thermal insulation effect and seems to be completely built for navigation in this underground river.

    Seeing that Qi Lin had returned to his original state, Tiegu couldn't help but said: "Brother Qi, why bother to go deep into this dark and dark river? The road ahead is long and we don't know the end. I'm afraid the worst will happen to us. You don't need to come here."  Wading in troubled waters.¡±

    Qi Lin smiled and said: "Since we are friends, not only can we share wealth and wealth, but we can't run away alone in times of trouble, so Brother Tie doesn't have to be so polite."

    After listening to this, Tie Gu nodded heavily, then turned to Chen Ruoqiao and said, "Let me first ask where this rat-like monster came from, and where was Your Majesty taken by them?"

    Chen Ruoqiao immediately asked in Persian. At this time, all the rat-man leather armor had been stripped off by Deng Ruozhi, revealing his original human form. When he heard Chen Ruoqiao speak fluent Persian, he was surprised.

    But this man was very experienced, and after a moment he regained his composure, and said slowly: "Yes, we are indeed from the Persian Mingjiao General Altar, and your emperor was indeed kidnapped by us, and is now in this underground river.  And it was heading northwest, but where it was at this time is unknown. If you have any questions, you might as well ask them together.I will tell you everything I know, hahahaha!  "

    The rat man was so happy, which was beyond everyone's expectation. After Iron Bones was stunned for a moment, he was afraid of being deceived, so he deliberately showed contempt on his face and said at the same time: "Although the Persian Demon Cult has penetrated into the middle of the Ming Dynasty, it must have an unexpected conspiracy.  , but Tie Mou knows that the Persian Mingjiao are all good men who would rather die than surrender, and weaklings like you are rare."

    After Chen Ruoqiao translated Tiegu's words, the rat man laughed and said: "Who knew that I was not a good man? I am willing to tell you all now because you will never be able to get out of this underground river, so even if  What¡¯s the harm in letting you know?¡±

    When Tie Gu heard this, a worried look immediately appeared on his face. He naturally knew that what the rat man said was true, but he was loyal to his master, and even though he died without regrets, Tie Gu was not worried about himself, but that he might never be able to find the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen.

    After a long while, Tiegu asked Chen Ruoqiao to continue asking: "How do you know the direction of this underground river? Moreover, the Mingjiao General Altar is far away in the vast Western Region, and the terrain is much higher than that of the Central Plains. If  Without thousands of people paddling together and swimming upstream, how could we arrive successfully?"

    The rat man looked bright and replied haha: "It doesn't matter if I tell you. You should know that the river on the ground is naturally higher in the west and lower in the east. The river water also flows eastward, but the underground river is almost level with the east and west. Let's say that at this time  We are already hundreds of meters deep underground, but the underground river in our headquarters is thousands of meters below the surface. It has long lost its original high-low pattern. Only some river sections have high-low differences, such as the current rapids.  . And this knowledge was naturally developed by our Persian Ming Cult after hundreds of years of exploring Persia, the Western Regions and the Middle East. It is just a piece of cake to understand these trends."

    "Then you must know the way back to the Persian Demon Cult's main altar?" Tie Gu's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but ask.

    "That's natural, but you should not have any wishful thinking. We in the Persian Ming Cult only have beheaded men, so how can anyone betray you! Since I have fallen into your hands today, I will accompany you to wander in this underground river for a few days.  If you are lucky, you can catch some delicious underground river blind fish, or you can live a few more months, but" The rat man first said a hard word, smashing the iron-clad wishful thinking into pieces, and then  He only spoke half of his speech again.

    "Just what?" Deng Ruozhi heard the thorn in the words and couldn't help but roared angrily.

    "This uncle is so angry. I want to see if you still have such courage when you meet those underground river monsters?" the rat man said in a neither yin nor yang manner.

    "I'm afraid! Tell me, what kind of birds and monsters are there in this dark river?" Deng Ruozhi became even more angry, but his curiosity was aroused and he couldn't help but ask.

    "Hahaha I just won't tell you, what can you do to me?" The Rat Man acted like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, but Deng Ruozhi could only be anxious.

    Qi Lin has been listening quietly and did not interrupt. Until this time, Qi Lin's heart has become clear. He knows that what this rat man said is true. Whether he returns to the ground or leaves the Persian Mingjiao General Forum, he must  landed on this person.  Although this rat man was captured, he was still a well-known man. If he continued to be tortured and interrogated, it is estimated that this man might not reveal another word.  But while on the ground, Tiegu clearly mentioned that in addition to Emperor Jianwen being kidnapped, there was also General Ma with a treasure box. It seems that the main purpose of the Persian Ming Cult may be more related to the treasure box, and the treasure box contains  The object, judging from various signs, may be a crystal skull, the Holy Skull!

    Thinking of this, Qi Lin decided to take a chance, so he squeezed Tie Gu quietly with his hand. When Tie Gu turned around, Qi Lin immediately winked at him, and then said: "This eldest brother is really a man, Qi Lin  A certain man who respects the tough and strong-willed man the most in his life. Since each of us is his own master, we can¡¯t force him. Let¡¯s just say it if we don¡¯t want to! It¡¯s just that the emperor you kidnapped is real, but the items in the treasure box are fake!¡±

    Hearing this, Deng Ruozhi couldn't hold back anymore. Just when he was about to speak, he felt the iron bones suddenly clasp his wrist tightly, and he couldn't help but suppress a exclamation in his heart.  Chen Ruoqiao was extremely alert. When he heard Qi Lin speak, he was a little puzzled. However, the inexplicable look between Qi Lin and Tie Gu just now was caught in his eyes, and he immediately translated Qi Lin's words exactly as they were.  come out.

    As expected, the rat man said, a trace of doubt suddenly appeared on his originally calm face, his eyes rolled twice, and after pursing his lips a few times, he finally suppressed his words.

    But Qi Lin had already seen the clues from the change in the rat man's demeanor, and immediately continued: "Thousands of miles away, hundreds of thousands of troops, labor and force, but we don't want to take back a fake holy head. What a pity, what a pity, what a pity!"

    The word "Holy Skull" finally touched the rat man's heartstrings, and he immediately asked regardless: "??You said the holy skull Emperor Jianwen was wearing was fake?  "

    "Not bad!" Qi Lin said two words leisurely and contentedly.

    "You are lying! Hahaha! Do you think I am a three-year-old child? Our Mingjiao's spies are so good, how can we misidentify others? Besides, thousands of elite guards rounded up with great fanfare, how can this be fake?"

    Although the rat man spoke loudly and conclusively, Qi Lin keenly caught the hint of suspicion in his words. Qi Lin pretended to be relaxed and laughed, saying: "Thank you for not being ashamed to encourage you."  Mingjiao¡¯s intelligence is very clever. I would like to ask, did Emperor Gaozu, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, come from Mingjiao? But do you know what Emperor Gaozu worried about in his life? "

    The rat man seemed to have some knowledge, and he opened his mouth and replied: "It's nothing more than the Mongolian invasion from the south and the Mingjiao rebellion!"

    "Indeed, that's why Emperor Gaozu, in order to prevent Mongolian invasion from the south, enfeoffed the fourth son Zhu Di, who was best at fighting, in Beijing, and the seventeenth son who was best at defense in Taiyuan, to reject the Mongolian cavalry from the north; and how to deal with the Mingjiao?  Do you know?"

    After Qi Lin asked, Rat Man shook his head blankly.

    Qi Lin then said: "The way to deal with the Ming Cult is to establish the Jinyi Guards!"

    "You're bluffing again. Who doesn't know that the Jinyiwei is the eagle dog used by the emperor of the Ming Dynasty to monitor his subjects, but what you said is a colander!" Rat retorted immediately.

    "Wrong! You are a foreign barbarian who has no knowledge of the history of China! You should know that none of the dynasties before the Ming Dynasty perished at the hands of the founder of the country. Even if the country was destroyed, it would be several generations and dozens of generations later!  "Qi Lin suddenly shouted loudly and then said these words.

    ???????????? This time the Rat Man couldn¡¯t help but be surprised, even Tie Gu and Chen Ruoqiao, the two former emperor¡¯s ministers, were also extremely surprised. If it didn¡¯t hinder the situation at hand, Tie Gu would probably be the first to ask what happened.

    Although the captured Rat Man did not know the inheritance of Middle-earth, he was quite familiar with the history of the Persian Kingdom. At this time, he also had an epiphany in his heart, because the Persian Kingdom has always had the king's flag changing on the city wall, and every dynasty has at least one.  Passed down from three to four generations, there is really no example of a country falling at the hands of its founding king.  So the Rat Man had nothing to say for the time being.

    Qi Lin had been observing the reaction of the rat man. When he saw the rat man was silent, Qi Lin naturally knew it well, so he struck while the iron was hot: "Emperor Gaozu established the Imperial Guard to monitor the subjects. It is a lie, but it is true to secretly find out the remaining party members. Not only  In this way, it is false that Emperor Jianwen was forced to abdicate and abscond. It is even more false that he was discovered by your Mingjiao spies hiding in this small town in western Sichuan. And it is even more false that the Jin Yiwei rounded up the remaining members of Emperor Jianwen's party! After all, the current emperor is Emperor Jianwen's uncle.  , even if the nephew is guilty of a serious crime, he should be confined in the palace, with fine clothes and fine food, and take care of himself until he is old. Why should he make the family scandal public to the world? Therefore, these are all fake and are just for you Mingjiao to see.  It¡¯s just a scene, I don¡¯t want you to take the bait, it shows how clever your Persian Ming Cult is! Hahaha, in my opinion, it¡¯s just extremely stupid!¡±

    Several lines of sweat rolled down from the rat man's pale forehead, dripping on the fur at the bottom of the cowhide raft, making a crackling sound!  The look of disbelief lingered in the rat man's eyes for a long time!  A trace of disappointment mixed with desperation spread undisguisedly on his face, and the deathly gray color was fully visible!

    Qi Lin did not expect that the rat man would have such a big reaction. He felt a little intolerable and at the same time despised his own nonsense, but then he thought that now that the matter had come to an end, he had no other choice but to give it a try.  So Qi Lin became silent, strained his face, and waited for the rat man's psychological defense to collapse completely.
