"Red Boy, stop. Tang Chao watched the corpse demon rush over to the old man who came in a hurry, and hurriedly drank it.

The corpse demon had already raised his power and blasted out, and the huge force of his fist squeezed the flesh of the old man's cheeks. As soon as Tang Chao's words fell, a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and finally he stopped his fist at the old man's face.

"Who are you?"

"The little old man's surname is Hu, and he is the master of this city lord. Young Master Tang, just call the little old man old man Hu. Master Hu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and replied.

"Let me ask you, after your city lord left, could someone come and search for it?" asked Tang Chao.

"Yes. In fact, the matter of the fall of the city lord, Xiao Lao'er is also clear. Just a few days ago, the new palace master Nie Xiansheng brought someone to turn it over. He said that it was to find the holy relics left behind in the Yagami Palace, and he turned over the entire City Lord's Mansion. Master Hu bowed down and said.

"Do you believe it?" Tang Chao suddenly asked again.

"Little old man...... Unbelief. Master Hu paused, and then said: "Nie Jisheng, this person is very familiar with the old decay, he is kind and ruthless, but he is never greedy for small profits. What's more, there are no holy relics in Yagami Shrine. ”

"Then guess what he's looking for?" Tang Chao said as he walked inside.

"I don't know, but it should have something to do with the passage. Recently, it has been rumored in the city that the old palace master of this Yashen Palace has a passage to leave this place. It is also because of this that he was calculated and fell. Master Hu followed behind Tang Chao, and then replied.

"Then you know, I'm looking for something?" Tang Chao walked for another while, and then turned back and asked.

"A way to live, and a way to live for all. Young Master Tang's reputation is still among the best in this Tianshui City, especially our City Lord's Mansion. Young Master Tang broke into the City Lord's Mansion alone for the sake of the soul in the south, and the old man still admired it from the bottom of his heart. ”

"It's not a joke secretly, is it?" Tang Chao asked with a smile as he stopped outside a building.

"Hehe......" Master Hu just smiled, but did not defend himself. "Young Master Tang wants to go in? ”

"You're smart. Tang Chao glanced at Master Hu, and after finishing speaking, he waved his hand at the corpse demon and the others.

The group entered it directly, and this house was the place where the old Taoist saw the Tang Dynasty. After Tang Dynasty came in, he glanced left and right, and swept a few places that were obviously a little messy. He didn't stop, and walked straight inside.

It's still the secret room that is not secret, and there are futons on the ground that the Tang Dynasty sat on. It's just that at this moment the futon has been torn apart and scattered on the side.

"There's a secret here?" the corpse demon followed and looked around. The obvious traces of being turned over made him a little disappointed.

Tang Chao ignored him and walked directly to the old tea case and sat down. He closed his eyes and carefully recalled the actions of the old man that day.

After a moment, he reached out and gently moved the case away, revealing the ground below. This action made everyone come around. Tang Chao took a breath, reached out and knocked on the ground with a smile, and quickly made up for it twice.

Three crisp sounds came from the ground, and everyone waited quietly. Tang Chao looked confident, but he froze there. He slammed it three more times, but there was still no response. In the next quarter of an hour, I saw that the Tang Dynasty knocked on every part of the ground under the case.

"Are you trying to smash it? The corpse demon hugged his shoulders, his face full of mockery, and said to Tang Dynasty.

"This ...... A little surprise. Tang Chao scratched his head a little embarrassed, and then said.

"The young master is the dragon and phoenix among the people, and the wisdom and courage are ......"

"Fuck off. Tang Chao slapped Gu Tianyi out with one palm, and then said: "If it's wrong, it's wrong, isn't it embarrassing?"

"Tang Shao, what did you think of?" asked Xu Lang.

"If there's anyone who knows this secret, it's the old way. I didn't have much contact with him, and the only time I saw him privately was here. It stands to reason that he didn't have to. What's even stranger is that he did a very strange move at the time. Tang Chao said.

"That's how he lies on the ground, knocking around?haha......" The corpse demon hugged his shoulders and took the opportunity to make fun of Tang Chao.

"Red boy, don't laugh at your brother. Tang Qianqian pulled the corpse demon's belly pocket and said softly. In a few days, she has recovered a lot, and the lost vitality has also been regained. In addition to her special physique, the elixir of the Tang Dynasty is also indispensable. This made Red Sleeves surprised, and she praised her brother with Tang Qianqian again.

At that time, Lao Dao took two sips of the teacup, and then he put the teacup down and tapped it three times on the table with his fingertips. Tang Chao slowly recalled.

"Three clicks? I don't think it's as simple as three knocks. Xu Lang said.

As for the others, Gu Tianyi did not have the demeanor of a master before at all, and he only looked forward to the Tang Dynasty. The red ghost and the corpse demon, one holding a sword, the other holding a shoulder, one has nothing to do with himself, and the other is just having fun.

"It's true that I'm thinking too simple. After Tang Chao finished speaking, he lay directly on the ground and closed his eyes.

After a while, Tang Qianqian moved to the edge of Tang Dynasty, then squatted down and asked softly, "Brother, you said that, will it be useful?" she said and pointed to the wall.

Tang Chao opened his eyes and followed his sister's finger, only to find that there was a painting on the wall. Under the moonlight, a Taoist priest looked up at the moon, with one hand behind his back and the other hand holding the dust in front of him. At the same time, there are four sentences on the painting: the dragon swims in the shallow fish pond, the wingless hates to insert the wings, the head is raised at night, and there is no corpse to speak.

"Three watches?" Tang Chao muttered to himself.

"Brother, what does this mean? Qianqian just thinks that it seems to be useful, and I don't know if it's true. Tang Qianqian said weakly.

The meaning of these sentences is that the dragon, which should have turned over the clouds and rain, fell into the shallows downstream. lost the ability to soar into the sky, even if it was winged, it couldn't fly. Every night at the third watch, I would think of it, quietly, and there was no one to talk to. Tang Chao explained.

"It's so desolate. Tang Qianqian sighed.

"There are indeed some, the heart is higher than the sky, and the life is thinner than paper. It was the time when he was in high spirits, but he was persecuted and fell here, and he couldn't leave. Tang Dynasty looked at the picture, the arrogance of the old Tao under the moonlight, and more sympathy. He thought of his past life, even if he was smart and unforgettable, no matter how complicated the exercises were, he could crack them. Providence makes people feel that he has no talent for cultivation, and for the rest of his life, countless heavenly and earthly treasures have only been piled up to be congenital, and he is still a pseudo-congenital.

"Everything has a cause and effect, and you can't just look at it. The corpse demon came over, looked at Lao Dao's arrogant intentions, pursed his lips, and then said.

"Your dignity is not fit to speak such a profound truth. Tang Chao gave him a blank look.

"What's the inspiration? Uncle really can't get used to you people, playing with these twists and turns. If you have something to say directly, you will be happy, life and death will be downbeat, and you will do it if you don't accept it. Things that can be solved by force do not need words. The corpse demon's face was full of disdain.

"You don't understand people's hearts, let alone human nature. Otherwise, how could you be here. Your cause doesn't seem to be a good cause. Tang Dynasty took down the painting and held it in his hand.

"It's not you humans, insatiable, insidious, and filthy......" The corpse demon's red eyes seemed to be able to breathe fire, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the Tang Dynasty.

"It's not that you're stupid. Tang Dynasty held the portrait and sat cross-legged in front of the original case.

Tang Chao didn't say anything more, staring at the portrait intently. The corpse demon was full of anger, but unfortunately no one was willing to deal with him, and they all took care of their own cultivation. Tang Qianqian stared at him with blank eyes, he could only lie in the corner bored and fall asleep.

The scorching temperature gradually receded, and the night fell, but it was still sultry. Suddenly, Tang Dynasty, who seemed to be placing the Buddha sculpture, moved, looked up at the outside, and then said to himself: "It should be the third watch, then let's see if there is any discovery." ”

As soon as the words fell, Tang Chao knocked his fingers on the ground three times, but unfortunately there was still no response.

"What's the problem?" Tang Dynasty was puzzled. He glanced up at the beam, and with a flick of his fingers, a sword aura overturned the tiles, revealing a circular hole. The hazy moonlight shone through the roof. The Tang Dynasty put the portrait in the moonlight, and sure enough, there was a change.

The moonlight shone on the portrait, leaving a shadow in the middle of which there were several bright runes.

"Xu Lang, what is this?"

"A key rune, also known as a key rune. This type of rune is specifically designed to activate a specific formation. Xu Lang looked at it for a while, and then said slowly.

"You are indeed a natural formation mage. It's a pity that that old stubborn doesn't have the blessing to meet you. Tang Chao said.

It was at this moment that he suddenly caught a glimpse of a case on the side. Stretching out his hand and sucking it in, the case fell into the hands of the Tang Dynasty. He carefully compared the positions before putting the case back in its place.

When the portrait was spread out by the Tang Dynasty again, the shadow covered the case, and a few bright runes in the middle of the shadow wandered on the case. After a few moments, the case suddenly sank a few points and regained its calm.

"Dangdangdang", three crisp sounds, came from the case. The case was lowered three times in a row, and finally stuck to the ground.

After two breaths, several patterns lit up on the case, and then the whole case began to fold on its own.

"The art of the mechanism, it seems to be the handiwork of the Lu people. But they seem to have been gone for a long time. At first, I wondered how they suddenly disappeared, but now I understand that they are guilty. The corpse demon sighed, it was rare that there was no sense of arrogance.

As soon as the corpse demon finished speaking, the entire case had been folded into four round sticks, which were located on the four table legs. Tang Chao slapped it directly with one palm, and the four table legs fell into the ground in unison.

As the legs sank, cracks appeared on the floor. Soon, a cavity collapsed throughout the ground, along with a curved staircase. Soon a chill came out of the cave.

"Let's go, this doesn't look like a cemetery that Lao Dao has prepared for himself. After saying that, Tang Chao took the lead and jumped down the steps.
