Illuminated by a soft purple glow, a brass handle was faintly visible in the square opening that was revealed when the tiles were turned up. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 The info handle is often used at first glance, because the curved handle has been polished.

Wan Guohou grasped the handle and tried to turn it, but he immediately realized that the handle could not be turned. So he tried to pull up again, only to hear a "boom-bang" sound, revealing an entrance more than one person high on the wall on the side where the moon was leaning.

"Master Hou!" K1 said in surprise, "Is this the exit?"

Wan Guohou straightened up, "You go and take a look." ”

K1 immediately scurried in three and two steps. After a while, a bright light scattered from the entrance. "Master Hou, Chief Yue, come in. ”

Wan Guohou picked up the moon and walked into this mysterious entrance.

It is a stone chamber of about 15 or 6 square meters, with a stone platform shaped like a coffin in the center, which is about half a meter high and shorter in length than ordinary coffins. The stone platform was covered with a layer of bedding and a pillow.

Wan Guohou squatted down by the wall near the entrance, and Yue Shuluo hurriedly spread the blazer in his hand on the ground. Then, Wan Guohou gently placed her on her coat, and when she was seated against the wall, he got up and began to look at the stone chamber.

At one end of the stone platform, there are some sundries placed against the wall. K1 flipped it slightly, "Master Hou, it's some food, basically dry food, and oil, it is estimated that it is used for lighting? He was overjoyed, and immediately grabbed three bottles of water, threw one bottle to Wan Guohou, and threw one bottle to Yueshuluo. Then, he unscrewed the cap and poured it into his mouth.

Wan Guohou stopped him in time, "It may be poisonous." ”

K1 looked at the bottle in horror, "It's sealed, isn't it?"

Wan Guohou said: "Don't drink it, be careful." ”

K1 heard Wan Guohou say this, so he had to reluctantly screw the lid.

There are also two copper lamps in the room, one near the entrance and one in the corner of the interior wall. These two lights are smaller than the ones outside, and the shape is slightly different, and it is these two lights that are lit by K1.

In the middle of the two lamps, against the wall sits an old, narrow wooden table piled high with papers and books. And on the wall against which the wooden table rests, there are all kinds of small notes and photographs. Under the wooden table, there was a wooden chair, Wan Guohou estimated the height of the table and chair, and knew in his heart that this old man named Hanako should be a little shorter than him.

Then he walked over to the wooden table and flipped through the papers on it. It was written in dense English, and only a few lines of Chinese occasionally appeared, although the handwriting was sloppy, but it was not difficult to read.

"Jin Huangting?" Wan Guohou said to himself, "This name is familiar. ”

"It's the shopping mall that I caught the old name Hanako. K1 said, "Nan Zeyu's family is also there." ”

"It seems that the old name Hanako has been wandering around the Jinhuang Court for a long time. Wan Guohou spread out a piece of paper, "He drew several topographical maps, and it turned out that he had already prepared the way back. ”

"Huh?" K1 walked over in surprise, "Isn't his name Hanako?"

Wan Guohou looked at the scattered papers on the table, "I don't think his name is Hanako. He has a Chinese face, but his English is very good, and judging by the drawings he draws, he should be good at reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance. He pulled out another piece of paper from the lower floor, "An ordinary person named Hanako doesn't need to pay attention to where the emergency exit is, and he doesn't need to pay attention to the storage boxes at bus stops or supermarkets like this. He tapped the table twice with his slender fingers, "It seems that this man has more than one place to store things." ”

"Three holes of the cunning rabbit. Yue Shuluo said, "What a difficult person to deal with." ”

Wan Guohou nodded, "K1, you search the stone chamber again to see if there is anything suspicious." With that, he went through the papers on the table one by one.

An old, yellowed newspaper caught his attention: an old Hancheng newspaper with the date: January 2, 2003, next to the masthead.

Wan Guohou couldn't help but shudder, he knew too well what day it was. He controlled his emotions, turned the inside page, and in the "local news" section, he saw the photo that had kept him awake at night.

In the photo, it is the newlywed portrait of Nan Zeyu and Tao Baihe.

The photo is old, but the hatred in his heart has not faded at all. He closed the newspaper gently, his expression calming down. His heart was full of angry waves, but his face was very ordinary and light.

He was no longer the impulsive teenager he had been twelve years ago, and he couldn't help but smile sarcastically at the thought of it.

"Master Hou, what do you see?" Although the light of the Lianzhi lamp illuminated the shadows of the people, the moon Shuluo still sensitively captured the smile that flashed on Wan Guohou's face.

"Nothing. I was sighing, I always thought that this person was chasing me, but now it seems that it has nothing to do with me. He raised his head and looked at the note posted on the wall, "He is tracking Nan Zeyu, and the time he appeared in Jin Huangting, he should also be going to Nan Zeyu." ”

"Master Hou, I don't understand, this old man is Hanako's enemy of Nan Zeyu?" K1 asked as he carefully examined the clutter.

"It's hard to say, I look at the clues posted by this person, obviously he chased from Hancheng to Kunming, and then chased to the magic capital. It stands to reason that after tracking for so long, there must be a chance to start. Although Nan Zeyu is the director of the hall, he usually goes out without bodyguards. Wan Guohou stared at an old photo on the wall in a daze, it was Nan Zeyu's family. In the photo, Nan Zejiao is still a toddler doll, Nan Zeyu and Tao Baihe seem to be taking her to fly a kite, and the background is like Kunming's Xishan Park.

"Master Hou, is there such a possibility? The old man called Hanako for some reason, and he couldn't act directly, so it took many years to collect all this information? In fact, he has only been tracking Nan Zeyu for a few years, but at first glance, it seems that we have been tracking for many years?" Yue Shuluo moved his legs slightly.

"What is the reason that restricts a man's movement for many years?" Wan Guohou asked.

"Jail. K1 said quickly, "Isn't it a serious illness and hospitalization?"

Wan Guohou stroked his beard, "K1, you have made great progress recently, and you react quickly." ”

K1 smirked, "I used to be stupid. ”

Yue Shuluo pursed her lips and smiled, "No one said you were stupid, you said it yourself." ”

K1 said nonchalantly, "Of course I'm joking myself, but when others say, it's different." At this time, he had already turned over several piles of miscellaneous items in the house, "Master Hou, there is nothing suspicious." ”

Wan Guohou had also left the wooden table at this time, and was looking at the wall carefully. Seeing this, K1 hurriedly walked over and helped him tear off the photos and notes on the wall. But until they finished inspecting the four walls, they didn't find any hidden grids or traps.

K1 was a little frustrated: "Master Hou, let's go back to the hall and try the altar of wood and earth, maybe we can find a way out." ”

Wan Guohou shook his head: "This room should be the secret room where that person usually lives, from this point of view, the altar of earth and wood is very likely to be a dead end." ”

"And how do we get out?" K1's eyes widened.

Wan Guohou patted him lightly on the shoulder, "Use your brain, think about it." ”

K1 scratched his chin and suddenly his eyes lit up, "I see." Master Hou, do you mean that we are waiting here for the old man Hanako, wait for him to come back, beat him, and then let him take us out?"

"Very imaginative. Wan Guohou smiled slightly, and then continued to grope along the wall, feeling again.

K1 didn't understand what Wan Guohou meant, he glanced at the moon, but saw that the latter was staring at the stone platform in the middle of the stone chamber in a daze.

K1 turned his head to look at Wan Guohou again, and saw that he looked confident, thinking that he already had a way out.

K1 knows Wan Guohou's temper, and if the other party doesn't want to say it, he can't ask anything. Thinking of this, K1 put his mind at ease, he walked to the side of the stone platform, and said, "I guess Hanako usually sleeps here." He touched the stone platform, "It's cold and hard, I don't know how he can sleep." He pinched the futon, "It's too thin, and I'm not afraid of rheumatism." ”

Yue Shuluo said: "Master Hou, except for this bed, you have all checked this room. I suggest, check out this stone platform. ”

"Hmm. Wan Guohou nodded, and K1 stretched out his hand and pulled away the bedding. He casually threw the bedding onto the debris, "I don't see anything, there are some messy circles carved on the table, oh, and tigers." He tried to tap the stone platform again, but this time he heard something strange.

The sound of "knock knock" attracted Wan Guohou, who walked to the side of the stone platform, "This is hollow?"

K1 was also surprised, "I didn't expect it, is Hanako really sleeping on the coffin? Damn, it's disgusting." ”

Wan Guohou half-squatted down and stroked the lines on the stone platform, "K1, there are two circular grooves here, you insert your fingers into them and try to see if you can push them." ”

K1 complied, then shook his head, "I can't push it." ”

Wan Guohou got up again and paced back and forth in the room, "It's strange, there is no mechanism on the wall, and the stone platform is obviously hollow, but it can't be opened. He had a headache at the thought of it, so he pressed his temples a little and turned his neck again. And the moment he raised his head, he seemed to see something.

"K1, lift the lantern, raise it higher, and shine on the ceiling!" Wan Guohou's tone was slightly excited, and K1 hurriedly lifted the lamp in the corner.

Under the illumination, you can clearly see five paintings painted in the center of the ceiling. Although after so many years, the colors are no longer bright, but the content of the painting can still be discerned. The five paintings are connected to each other, like a long scroll.

The first painting is the heaven and earth Hongmeng, a spherical stone absorbs the essence of the sun and the moon, lying quietly on the beach, not far away, the waves are flying, and the birds are singing.

The second painting depicts a fierce battle between the heroes and the Central Plains, where they are not only fighting for power and wealth, but also for a peculiar spherical stone.

In the third painting, a man who looks like Qin Shi Huang is standing next to a Dan furnace, pointing at a spherical stone, looking up to the sky and smiling. The stone was placed in a tray, and a palace man was carefully holding it, and the palace man's long hair hung down to the edge of the tray, and was sucked by the stone.

In the fourth painting, a group of children are clapping their hands at a fire with a platform inlaid with a round stone. Beside them, there is also a coffin.

In the fifth painting, a group of immortals soar through the clouds and mist, their clothes fluttering. They look calm and graceful. In the western sky where they were flying, a round stone was spinning and glowing in the air.

K1 craned his neck and muttered, "Why are these paintings painted on the ceiling?

Tsukishuluo also looked up curiously, and K1 held the lamp very high, so she could basically see the mural on the ceiling.

After reading the five paintings, Wan Guohou slowly lowered his head. He thought for a moment, then raised his head again, "K1, take a look at the stone platform." ”

Wan Guohou walked around the stone platform, and suddenly stopped, he pointed to the two round holes in the center of the stone platform, "K1, pour a little oil into it, and then light the fire." ”

K1 finds a jar from the clutter pile and takes two pieces of paper from the table. He poured some oil into the hole, rolled up the paper and inserted it into the hole, and with the "bang" of the lighter, the flame danced immediately.

"It's kind of like a fire altar mechanism. Yue Shuluo said.

"I was inspired by the Fire Altar. After all, this is the stone chamber activated by the Fire Altar, and it is likely that the design of the mechanism is also in the same vein. As soon as Wan Guohou finished speaking, the stone platform let out a dull sound, and then slowly moved to the side, revealing a deep rectangular hole.

K1 looked over and said, "Damn, there's a dead man." He turned his head, "Mr. Yue, don't come here." ”

Yue Shuluo smiled bitterly, "I can't get over it either." ”

Through the light, Wan Guohou saw the white bones lying in the cave. "The skeleton is in an awkward position, and it is possible that it was moved here after death. Wan Guohou bent down again and looked closer for a while, "The bones are all out of order, this person was moved here after turning into white bones." ”

"Who did that?" K1 looked around, "Is it Hanako?"

"It could only be him. I guess there was originally a coffin in it, and Hanako always asked Hanako to throw the body inside into the hole, probably to search for the contents of the coffin. Wan Guohou said, "I'm more curious, where did he throw the coffin?"

Yue Shuluo stroked her hair slightly, "Maybe it's burned as firewood?"

Wan Guohou thought for a moment and nodded, "It's really possible." Judging by the current situation, this man should be a pragmatic guy. With that, as if he had suddenly thought of something, he glanced back at the table and chairs.

K1 couldn't hear Wan Guohou's praise for the old Hanako, he pouted, "This place is really weird, there is a hole under the coffin." ”

Wan Guohou explained, "Don't you understand the frescoes on the ceiling? These paintings have already shown that this stone platform is not a coffin, it should be used to store something, and it is only designed to cover the coffin below. ”

K1 was puzzled, "How can you put another coffin on top of the coffin? Besides, if you want to store things, why don't you just put them in the coffin?

Wan Guohou smiled, "You have so many questions. He stroked his beard, "That white bone may belong to the Thousand Autumn Sect Master." Combined with the murals, this is just a ritual of rebirth. ”

He stared at the round hole and tiger pattern in the middle of the stone platform, "What I'm really interested in is the pearl of the sea." ”

K1 obviously didn't understand, but Yueshuluo's kind explanation surprised K1, "Master Hou means that spherical amber." ”
