Chen Feitang had said that during the two days she had saved Lu Yuqing, it had rained heavily in Luan City. The road below the village was filled with this kind of yellow soil. If one stepped on the ground, they would have definitely carried the soil all the way in.
Looking at the pattern of the footprints, Lu Xingzhi guessed that it was probably a pair of men's leather boots. It was impossible for anyone in the village to wear such shoes. Looking at the ground below the pillar, there was a small pile of dried yellow soil with half of the footprints. Lu Xingzhi thought that someone must have scraped off the soil from the soles of the shoes here.
Therefore, if Jiang Yao or Chen Xuyao were here, then the person who brought Jiang Yao and Chen Xuyao in must have passed through this corridor. "Captain Lu, did you find anything?" The pilot's voice came through the communicator.
"Mm." Lu Xingzhi responded. Then, he began to look around carefully. Then, he continued to walk in the direction of the toe of the footprints.
Chen Feitang had said that this place was a miniature version of the imperial palace. It was not an exaggeration at all. Lu Xingzhi walked along the small corridor for a long time. When he exited the corridor and entered a place overgrown with trees and weeds, the people on the plane could no longer see Lu Xingzhi.
Even the weeds were taller than Lu Xingzhi, let alone the trees that had been left untended for hundreds of years.
In addition, Luan City had never encountered a drought or flood before. The weather was good, so the plants here were very lush.
"Young Master Lu, we can't see you now, so you have to keep in contact with us," the pilot said worriedly.
Lu Xingzhi grunted in acknowledgment. Then, he kicked the book beside him. The tree shook violently with a crash.
"Young Master Lu, I can see you!" The pilot laughed. "That's a good idea."
After entering the courtyard, Lu Xingzhi could not find any clues. The entire courtyard was covered in soil, so naturally, there were no footprints to speak of. Even if there were, they would have been washed away by the rain.
Lu Xingzhi looked around and seemed to have thought of something. Then, he used a piece of dry wood to poke the soil under his feet. Then, he suddenly said, "Chen Feitang, help me ask your comrades if they had heard the village elders mention a place like a dungeon when they were here."
"Okay," Chen Feitang replied quickly.
Fortunately, they were already in Luan County. Chen Feitang took out her phone and saw that there was signal.
She immediately dialed the army's number. After a few minutes of transfer, she finally got in touch with her comrades who had come to the village for an inspection. Chen Feitang did not delay and immediately relayed Lu Xingzhi's question to them.
The person on the phone thought for a while and said, "We don't know much about the situation here in Cuicheng, because the house in Cuicheng was not within our scope of investigation. We were just curious at that time, so we asked a few more questions in the village and learned some information. At that time, we were investigating the mountain behind this village. However, perhaps because we were soldiers, the people in this village were very good to us. When they saw us asking about the house, they told us that there was a carpenter in the village who had a blueprint of the house, which was passed down from the ancestor of the carpenters. The elders in the village said that the ancestor of the carpenters was the designer of this house. You can ask that carpenter for confirmation."
Chen Feitang turned on the public speaker and placed her phone in front of the communication device. Therefore, Lu Xingzhi could hear everything clearly.
