Chapter 197: Entrance

At this time, Qing Ming's face was frosty, and he walked to the edge of the pool, staring at the undisturbed water, the thick fog floating on the water was like pouring cheese, and it was like a hazy dream in his sleep.

Xiang Ji's mood instantly changed from loss to excitement after learning that Gu Ji didn't lie to him, but after the excitement, there was a sad face, and from the conversation between the two just now, Xiang Ji could vaguely guess some clues. One of them must be the most powerful person in Wuhua Prefecture, the governor Sheng Tianqi. As for the old man, Xiang Ji didn't know him.

And, more importantly, Lingxi may be locked up here.

The pool was lowered and the passage implied, and the two of them were almost deceived, but by chance they found Sheng Tianqi and the two of them walking out of the secret passage.

Looking at the empty water, Xiang Ji's mood also became heavy.

"Since there is a secret passage under the water, there must be a switch to open the passage. Xiang Ji said softly, "But what is that switch, and where is it hidden."

Qing Ming glanced around, except for a few boulders scattered on the shore, there was nothing special about it, and when his eyes fell on the rockery in the middle of the pool, his eyebrows couldn't help but furrow.

In the center of this pond stands such a rockery, and there is a few centimeters of flat ground at the base of the rockery. If it is just a landscape for people to enjoy, there is no need to lay such a flat land under the rockery, from all aspects, this flat land is not only not coordinated with the rockery, and the surrounding water features are not unified, but give people a suspicion of painting snakes.

Then, this flat land has only one function, which is used to support people.

"There's something wrong with that rockery!" Qing Ming said as he turned his head to Xiang Ji.

Xiang Ji's face was stunned, and he looked at the uneven, even a little ugly rockery, it really didn't see anything strange.

"There's really a problem, it's so ugly!" Xiang Ji said with a straight face.

Qing Ming originally took a few steps forward, and suddenly heard the sound of Xiang Ji behind him, and he almost fell to the ground, turned his head to look at Xiang Ji behind him, and saw that he was seriously observing the rockery, and there was a thoughtful expression on his face.

Qing Ming followed his line of sight, the surface of the rockery was uneven and uneven, and the proportions were very incongruous, even if there was mist, it still could not hide its ugly appearance.

"Well, it's ugly!" Qing Ming muttered.

"What did you say?" Xiang Ji vaguely heard Qing Ming's voice, but he couldn't really hear it, and there was a puzzled look on his face.

"You're really observant!" replied.

After Xiang Ji's trouble, Qing Ming's originally heavy mood gradually eased.

When Qing Ming turned his gaze to the water again, he saw something strange, he found that there was something faint under the water surface, and when he took a look, it was a stone hidden under the water surface, the stone pillar was not big, only allowing one soles, and then he looked forward, and there was another place one zhang away.

Seeing this, Xiang Ji had also fully confirmed his judgment.

Qing Ming was not ambiguous immediately, stepped on the first stone pillar, and then according to his own judgment, he roughly confirmed the location of the rest of the stone pillars, and after a few breaths, he came to the side of the rockery.

At first, when Xiang Ji saw Qing Ming jumping into the water desperately, his face changed color, and when he saw him standing on the water unscathed, he instantly became stunned again, and secretly wondered if Qing Ming had cultivated some advanced martial arts, and he could stand on the water without sinking.

Under the guidance of Qing Ming, Xiang Ji saw the stone pillar under the water, and then he suddenly realized.

The platform is only three feet wide from the rockery, with the rockery as the center, presenting a circular shape.

Qing Ming walked along the platform and didn't find anything abnormal, just as he looked at the rockery in front of him, he saw that a protruding area of the rockery was a little strange, the rest of this area was potholed and irregular, only that thing was smooth and round, presumably it was often touched, which caused the current situation.

Qing Ming tried to put his hand in, and the protruding lump was as cold as jade, and pressed it down, only to hear a slight sound, and the lump sank inside.

He was overjoyed, thinking that this was the switch of the underwater passage, and when he saw this, he increased his strength, and when his hand pressed it in with the block, the water surface changed.

When he fully pressed the switch, the passage was completely exposed to the two of them.

There are about thirty or forty steps of the passage, and there is a faint light shining from the bottom, which looks very strange on such a foggy night.

"Let's go" Qing Ming returned to Xiang Ji's side, glanced at the passage, and walked down first, followed by Xiang Ji.

After the two disappeared underneath the passage, the passage disappeared again under the water.

However, when the water returned to calm, a figure in the darkness looked in the direction they had disappeared, and randomly disappeared into the depths of the darkness.

The space below was not as oppressive as they imagined, they passed through a narrow corridor, and came to a huge stone in front of them, and above the giant door were written three big characters "Ghost Soft Prison", and they were even more surprised when they came here, there was no guard guarded by them, compared to the mansion guarded by heavy soldiers outside, it was a pure land here.

When the two of them came to the door, the huge door opened automatically, and behind the door was a long and narrow passage, illuminated by firelight on both sides, and the firelight swayed in the air.

There is no compassion for the interrogation of prisoners, and there is no bloody smell like the "Ghost Cave Prison", which is more like an underground secret room than a prison.

A breeze blew from the end of the passage, the fire was extinguished, and Qing Ming and Xiang Ji stood at the door with a clear heart, neither of them taking the first step.

If this place is guarded by guards, they think it is better, but this place seems too abnormal, and if something goes wrong, it is a demon, and they dare not act rashly.

Qing Ming thought for a moment in his heart, took a step and walked straight to the passage, for the sake of Lingxi, he dared to break through even the sword mountain and sea of fire in front of him.

The two of them walked on the passage one after the other, and walked forward for a distance, and Qing Ming, who was walking in front of the front, suddenly found that the stone walls on both sides revealed a pitch-black void space, and several thick iron fences stretched along, isolating the dark space from the light passage.

"Qing Ming, do you feel as if something is watching us in the dark," Xiang Ji whispered behind him.

Qing Ming nodded, in the depths of the darkness, Qing Ming sensed as if something was approaching, and this aura made him feel a hint of danger.

What kind of prisoners are being held here, as for using such a thick iron fence as a prison door, a cloud of doubt rose in Qing Ming's heart

At this moment, two spots of light as crimson as blood appeared in the darkness......
