Volume 3: The Eternal Kingdom Chapter 173: The Second Floor of the Royal Palace

"Although I Zhang Gong is not a righteous gentleman, but I am by no means a fool who does not distinguish between good and evil, the matter between us will be counted later, but today's matter.... I'm done!" Zhang Gong raised his thick braid slightly, and said to Meng Lei with a side face.

"The big mistake has been made, and it will be too late to regret it, but I will do my best to repay my benefactor for today's events!" Just as Li Sheng was reshaping Zhang Gong's image in his heart, another man with a bowler hat rushed towards Huang Zhao from the other side with a dagger, and this person was the doorman Liu Mao.

"Madam and the general, please ask the two little brothers to help a lot, and I, Mrs. Zhao, will do my best to help you!" Just when Li Sheng and Meng Lei were a little stunned, the servant Zhao Chunlai also rushed over from the other side and directly blocked Huang Zhao's back road!

"Thank you for letting us get relief, let us repay your kindness today!" When Zhao Chunlai's words just fell, a very sweet and thin little female voice came out of the corner, and the maid Lily with two pigtails bowed slightly to Li Sheng and Meng Lei, and also entered Huang Zhao's encirclement.

"I almost fell for you! You won't help us rescue General Wang Yong and his wife at all, so you're ..... Just using me to help you break the seal, I will listen to your slander and almost kill our benefactor, everyone listens to me, it is not the lady's child who is resurrected in the well, but.... A complete monster!" The last one to appear was Song Qian, a girl with long braids, who reprimanded Huang Zhao in front of her angrily at this time, and a short knife was also aimed at the man in the suit and leather collar.

"Okay, since you all know, then I won't pretend, the seal on your head has now been completely destroyed by you, dragging your blessing, the monster under your feet is about to wake up, and the entire eternal realm will also usher in his new master, Li Sheng, I originally wanted you to die at my hands, but... As long as he is resurrected, you are destined to not escape!Prepare to die in this world, haha....." Huang Zhao suddenly showed a wild laugh, his eyes swept contemptuously over the group of ghosts besieging him, and then he fixed his eyes fiercely on Li Sheng's body, as if he was already looking at a dead person.

"Goodbye, Li Sheng, may you see me again alive!" Huang Zhao said his last words, and he was not ready to continue to entangle with these ghosts, but turned into a wisp of flame and rushed towards the passage outside the door, quickly disappearing into this space.

"That's... I'm really sorry! I've actually been deceiving you! The five-element spire above my head is actually a seal set up by the old man before he died, and it was set up to prevent the resurrection of the monster in the well, and I blame it on listening to Huang Zhao's slander...... Now that the seal is no longer there, and the Five Elements Array is about to be completely activated, it is about to come out, you guys hurry upstairs! Song Qian suddenly bowed deeply to Li Sheng and Meng Lei, and said to them in a choked voice.

At the moment when Song Qian's words just fell, suddenly a very piercing baby cry came from the well, driving a huge vibration to suddenly drag the entire room into chaos, and this black smoke underground suddenly became very unstable, and the black smoke that remained in it began to overflow outside, wanting to drag the entire room into the world of black fog.

"Let's go! these are our debts, let us pay them!" Suddenly, the five of them surrounded the well, their eyes fixed on the well below, as if they were nervously waiting for some kind of creature to arrive.

"That.... Which of the two roads should we take?" Li Sheng suddenly turned around and asked suspiciously.

"Hehe, in fact, which one of you goes is the same, as long as you remember a mantra, you will be able to successfully find the room of the general and his wife, this mantra is: take the son as a mirror, turn the clear into a mirror, take the chen as a mirror, turn the front into a blunt, take the afternoon as a mirror, turn the mud into a clear, take Hai as a mirror, and hide your body!

"Take the Buddha beads, they will be useful!" Zhang Gong reminded Li Sheng and Meng Lei at the last moment, and the monster in the well suddenly began to let out a hysterical roar, with a baby-like tone, which sounded like a goosebump all over Li Sheng and Meng Lei.

"Let's go, we can be resurrected in the palace, but you only have one life!" Song Qian hurriedly urged as she looked at Li Sheng and Meng Lei's grinding appearance.

Li Sheng and Meng Lei were not hypocritical, after arming the Buddha beads against themselves, they hurriedly ran to the top of the stairs, the staircase passage was very narrow, and the sound of stepping on it was very loud, and at the moment when Li Sheng and Meng Lei stepped on it, there was also a huge roar behind them, as well as the noise during the battle, Li Sheng was a little curious, and wanted to look back, but Meng Lei grabbed his arm.

"Every minute and every second now is for us to be fought for by others, and at this time, only to rescue the general and his wife is our top priority!" Meng Lei whispered to Li Sheng, and quickly rushed upstairs after speaking.

"I've always wondered why a person of Huang Zhao's status would know about the existence of the Eternal Realm, and why he was able to use his abilities when he entered the Eternal Realm, while our abilities were lost!" Li Sheng asked Meng Lei suspiciously as he went upstairs.

"Do you remember what Huang Zhao said to us at that time? He said that he had been waiting for us for a long time, which means that... The news that we will enter the Eternal Realm has already been leaked, so they will prepare in advance to deal with us, and everything that happens in this Eternal Realm. The chaos should have been caused by them as well!" Meng Lei was very calm after listening to Li Sheng's questions, it seemed that these questions had already been answered in his heart.

"They? do you mean to say.... Huang Zhao was not the only one who was manipulating this incident?" Li Sheng sensitively grasped the key words in Meng Lei's mouth and asked suspiciously.

"You think about it.... How many people know about our entry into the Eternal Realm?How can Huang Zhao know our whereabouts?" Meng Lei said with a slight hook on the corner of his mouth.

"That must be Guanghuan Zhang Tao! I never expected him to be a trickster behind his back!" Li Sheng immediately made a judgment after listening to Meng Lei's words, because this question is too easy to guess, first Li Sheng's whereabouts are not known to anyone except Meng Lei, and he knows the existence of the Eternal Realm, and he can know that Li Sheng will come to find Lu Li, only Zhang Tao is undoubted!

"Do you remember the snacks we found in the cabinet, the words Lu Li wrote with a ballpoint pen, and the information he wrote about being killed by a traitor? Think about it again, who is Lu Li? Those who can become divine envoys are not ordinary people, so the only thing that can harm Lu Li so miserably is that he is defenseless, so this time the plot is definitely done by the divine envoy Zhang Tao!" Meng Lei's thoughts were simply seamless, and the final spearhead of the problem was pointed at Zhang Tao from all angles.

"So what is Zhang Tao's purpose? Is it just to get rid of me?" Li Sheng couldn't help but hold his chin and think deeply.

"If he wants to get rid of you, your grave grass is ten thousand feet tall now, and there must be deeper intentions!" Meng Lei couldn't help but smile after listening to Li Sheng's words, and immediately retorted.

......................

"It seems that we have reached the second floor, stop talking, be careful!" Just as Li Sheng and Meng Lei were talking, the entire wooden staircase also reached the end, followed by a relatively simple hall appeared in front of Li Sheng and Meng Lei.

This is a relatively decent second-floor living room, surrounded by many famous paintings and porcelain, all kinds of pendants and decorations also reveal a rich and luxurious atmosphere, but because the precipitation time is too long, so that it is covered with a thick layer of dust, and some wooden tables and chairs have also become corroded and deformed because of moisture.

But in this long and dilapidated hall, there was a ticking sound all the time, very similar to the sound of a pointer clock running, and this sound came into Li Sheng's ears, causing him to immediately become vigilant.

"Li Sheng follows me, the voice is here!" Meng Lei's expression also became very serious, only to see him gently pat Li Sheng's shoulder, and walked behind the ink screen with a low foot, and the ticking sound came from behind it.

"It's really a clock!" Li Sheng has summed up a truth after experiencing three eternal realms, in these worlds, whether it is what the eyes see, the ears hear, or the fingers touch, it is not necessarily true, but his own intuition is the most trustworthy inside, but this time when Li Sheng poked his head out of the screen, he really saw a gorgeous clock inlaid with golden lace, which directly subverted his cognition.

This clock is very gorgeous, in the late Qing Dynasty should be in the super luxury daily necessities, but in modern times it seems a little backward, but the value of this clock in modern times can still make the children and grandchildren of an ordinary family three generations do not need to struggle.

It is a bulky clock, standing in the corner of the living room like an organ, with three golden hands in the top white disc, and then 12 numbers on the entire circumference of the disc, and the hour hand is now pointing exactly at three o'clock in the morning, and the second hand is still rotating at high speed.

"I didn't expect there to be time in this world, I don't know if it's the same as outside!" Li Sheng and Meng Lei have been in the Eternal Realm for at least ten hours, but the weather outside the window is always gray, like being curled up in a dark black hole, and suddenly seeing the time on the clock makes Li Sheng feel a little new in an instant.

"It should be an ordinary clock, then let's continue to walk forward!" Meng Lei fumbled on the clock for a long time, and at this moment he had already determined that this was simply a clock, so they didn't plan to stay here and continue to walk forward.
