Every six meters there is a narrow passage with a fist-sized pearl of the night, and the faint soft light emitted by each pearl shines on the walls and stairs in this passage, and at a glance, the entire passage exudes a faint soft light.

Although the night pearl is bright and soft, so many night pearls gather in one place, and each night pearl is as big as a fist, and it is also as bright as the moon, which can illuminate one side.

Under the soft brilliance of many night pearls, this passage built under the hall on the right side of the Qingxin Palace, which should be so dark that you can't see your fingers, is no longer dark.

Although Wang Quan slowed down when he talked to Leng Qing about Yan Ziming's past, the passage under their feet that was built into a stepped shape was long, and even if Wang Quan and Leng Qing walked slowly, they still came to an end unconsciously.

As Wang Quan stepped out of the passage, the doorway at the end of the passage, which was about two meters long and could accommodate an adult Han Tong guò, presented in front of Leng Qing's eyes, was a room about two meters high, with a total area of about 100 square meters, and the room was of equal length all around.

Just like the narrow and deep passage behind Leng Qing, the top of this room, which is about two meters high and about 100 square meters high, with a total area of about 100 square meters, and a square floor, is also inlaid with many night pearls the size of fists for lighting.

With just one glance, Leng Qing keenly noticed that if the "ceiling" of the boxy room in front of her was divided by the pattern of the Go chessboard, it would be found that the mosaic points of each fist-sized night pearl were exactly at the intersection of vertical and horizontal lines every six meters.

With the faint soft brilliance emanating from the night pearl, Leng Qing could clearly see the furnishings in this room:

Leng Qing had a wooden bed about the height of an adult's knee under the wall on his left, and there was no bed net to cover the dust, no railing at the head and end of the bed, and no footrest on the ground next to the bed, it was a very simple wooden bed.

And the wooden bed is very small, about two meters long, but only about one meter wide. Such a small wooden bed that even the long couches in the left and right halls are wider than it.

But the small wooden bed was covered with several layers of thick cotton wool and a white wool blanket. Its thickness is very warm just by looking at it. And at one end of the small wooden bed, there was a neatly folded pale yellow satin quilt, and a pale yellow satin round pillow was pressed on the quilt, and many patterns of fire and auspicious clouds were embroidered on the quilt and pillow.

Although the small wooden bed was very simple to make, the wooden bed was covered with cotton wool and wool blankets. The workmanship of the satin quilt and satin round pillow is excellent, which shows that the person who sleeps on the small wooden bed also pays great attention to its comfort.

And under the wall on Leng Qing's right hand there is a small rectangular wooden table, although Leng Qing can't see the material of the case, but just looking at the gray color of the case, Leng Qing can probably guess that the case table is not the material of golden silk nanmu. It's not a mahogany material.

On the sides of the small table, which was of no discernible material, was a large round fan and a small earthy yellow stove forty centimeters high, and a small gray clay pot rested on the mouth of the stove.

Just looking at the size of the small stove and small crockpot, Leng Qing guessed that it should be the medicine stove and medicine pot used to boil medicine.

As for the front of Leng Qing, there was nothing, but there was a rectangular outline in the shape of a door on the wall. Leng Qing didn't have to think about it, if she wanted to see Yan Ziming, she would definitely have to go through the outline of that door.

When Leng Qing looked at the layout and furnishings of the room in front of her, Wang Quan had already strode across the square room and walked to the wall directly in front of Leng Qing. Immediately, Wang Quan was seen holding his hand against the wall. With a slight exertion, the rectangular outline of the door-shaped door on the wall was pushed open.

Just as Leng Qing thought, the rectangular outline of the door-shaped door was a stone door.

However, unlike the previous machine door, the stone door in front of Leng Qing now is a "revolving door", and the movement trajectory of that stone door is completely along the central axis of that stone door.

Therefore, when Wang Quan pushed the stone door completely open as he moved forward, there was a gap on both sides of the stone door that rotated along the central axis for adults to enter and exit.

Of course, because it is a "revolving door", the gaps on the left and right sides of the stone gate are a little narrow, and a person like Wang Quan, who is still a little slender among men, can barely pass through the stone gate directly. But if you are a burly person, you have to turn slightly sideways to get through the stone gate.

Leng Qing, who was standing at the exit of the passage, saw Wang Quan in the room push open the stone door, and Leng Qing also walked towards Wang Quan. It's just that what makes Leng Qing a little strange is that it was pitch black behind the revolving stone door. There is not a single light to be seen.

On the other side, Wang Quan, who was standing in the gap on one side of the stone door, was not idle, and saw Wang Quan walk out of the revolving stone door and walk in the room, and then Wang Quan raised his left hand and stood on his toes slightly. Wang Quan actually plucked a fist-sized night pearl that was embedded in the "ceiling" of the room above his head.

Because these night pearls are as big as a fist, and they are as bright as the stars and the moon, so that if you stand far away and look at Wang Quan's action, you actually feel a little like probing your hands to pick up the stars.

When Wang Quan took off the fist-sized night pearl above his head and held it in his hand, Leng Qing also walked to Wang Quan's side.

So, I saw Wang Quan, who was holding a night pearl the size of a fist in his left hand, looked at Leng Qing, and said to Leng Qing seriously: "Miss Leng, there is a maze behind this stone gate. Unlike ordinary mazes, this maze has many traps and traps that can kill people. It's been too long, and Wang Quan can't remember the specific locations of some traps and traps.

And there is no night pearl lighting in the entire maze, so Miss Leng must follow Wang Quan for a while, don't get lost. Of course, as long as Miss Leng follows the light emitted by the night pearl in Wang Quan's hand, she will not be lost. If Miss Leng accidentally takes a fork in the road, Miss Leng just stands where she is and doesn't move, Wang Quan will have a way to find Miss Leng. ”

As soon as Wang Quan's voice fell, Leng Qing nodded at Wang Quan, which was regarded as an answer to Wang Quan.

So, Wang Quan, who was holding a fist-sized night pearl in his left hand, turned around very simply and burrowed into the darkness behind the revolving stone door. Leng Qing immediately followed.

Leng Qing didn't know how complicated the situation was behind this revolving stone door, because as Wang Quan said, behind this stone gate. It's really a night pearl for lighting!

Except for the night pearl held in the hand of Wang Quan, who was walking in front of Leng Qing, was trying to exude a faint soft brilliance, there was only endless darkness left around Leng Qing.

Such darkness that can't see your fingers is a kind of torture for Leng Qing, who has been afraid of the dark since she was a child!

"Wang Quan, you know that Mu Wen cares about Yan Ziming as much as you do. Why do you still deprive Mu Wen of the right to take care of Yan Ziming? Don't you think it's selfish for you not to let Mu Wen take care of Yan Ziming? Or do you think that Mu Wen is not as smart as you and can't take care of Yan Ziming too much?" Maybe it was to dispel the fear of darkness in his heart, or maybe he really wanted to know the answers to these questions, in short, in the dark space where he couldn't see his fingers, he only heard Leng Qing's cold voice ask.

"Miss Leng's words are wrong! Wang Quan decided. It's not that Wang Quan dislikes Mu Wen for being stupid, Mu Wen just has a somewhat wooden personality, but he is not stupid. It's just that Wang Quan thinks that compared to Mu Wen, who has a dull personality and will not relieve his sorrows, and everything is stuffy in his heart, Wang Quan can better regulate his emotions and digest the pain from the outside world because of his lively nature, and Wang Quan can laugh at many things.

Wang Quan made such a decision, but Wang Quan felt it. Instead of letting Wang Quan and Mu Wen both stay by the side of the poison-haired master, both worried, painful, and desperate for the master, it is better to let Wang Quan bear this qiē alone! At least in this way, Mu Wen, who can't see the master and doesn't know anything, won't feel pain and despair for the master......

Another thing that needs to be told is that this decision is not Wang Quan's intention alone. When he made the decision to no longer let Mu Wen take care of the poisoned master, Wang Quan reported it to the master, and the master agreed with Wang Quan to do so. Like Wang Quan, the master did not want to see Mu Wen suffering and despairing for the master. "Walking in front of Leng Qing, holding a night pearl in his left hand. Wang Quan, whose upper body, especially his face, was a little weirdly illuminated by the soft light emitted by the pearl of the night, heard this, and replied to Leng Qing without stopping his steps and without looking back.

For Wang Quan's answer. Leng Qing didn't express any opinions, and only quietly followed Wang Quan's footsteps forward.

In fact, Leng Qing didn't really want to know why Wang Quan didn't let Mu Wen take care of the poisonous Yan Ziming anymore, Leng Qing was just too afraid of the darkness around her, and wanted to talk to Wang Quan and distract herself.

In this way, he followed the only light source, Wang Quan, for a while, and the space was dark and he couldn't see his five fingers. The whole person was surrounded by darkness, and Leng Qing's cold voice, who couldn't see anywhere on his body, sounded again: "How big is this maze, how long will it take to get out?"

This time, Leng Qing's question was asked for a long time, and Wang Quan did not answer Leng Qing.

Just when Leng Qing thought that Wang Quan hadn't heard her question and was about to ask again, in the dark space where she couldn't see her fingers, she heard Wang Quan's deep voice slowly sounding: "When this underground dark room was built, all the drawings were designed by the master, and the excavation work was excavated by Mu Wen with full authority, and Wang Quan did not participate in it, so Wang Quan did not know the specific size of this maze, Wang Quan only knew that this maze was about the size of two or three Qingxin Palaces. ”

"You have excavated such a big maze under the Qingxin Palace, aren't you afraid that the Qingxin Palace will sink to the ground?" In the dark space where he couldn't see his five fingers, Leng Qing's cold voice sounded again.

Of course, this question is what Leng Qing really wants to know the answer to.

Leng Qing didn't know how much the Qingxin Hall was, but Leng Qing was sure that if this maze excavated under the Qingxin Hall did not meet the load-bearing mechanics, it could collapse with a bang at any time!

If it was on the ground of the Qingxin Palace, it would be fine, and at the moment of the accident, Leng Qing would still have a chance to escape from the Qingxin Palace. But now Leng Qing is under the Qingxin Palace! In case these ancients excavated a tofu scum project, Leng Qing has nowhere to escape if she wants to escape!

However, obviously Leng Qing's worry was unnecessary, because Leng Qing's voice had just fallen, and then he walked in front of Leng Qing, and Wang Quan, the "only light source" in the dark, replied to Leng Qing in a very positive tone: "Naturally not!"

As soon as the words turned, Wang Quan explained to Leng Qing very seriously: "Although this maze is huge, there are solid iron pillars buried on the walls in many places in the maze, and each iron pillar corresponds to the columns in the Qingxin Hall that are used to support the weight of the top of the Qingxin Palace, as well as the position of each wall of the Qingxin Palace, so Miss Leng doesn't need to worry about the Qingxin Hall sinking at all." ”

After listening to Wang Quan's answer, Leng Qing's slightly hanging heart was relieved.

Immediately, Leng Qing, who was immersed in the darkness, asked again: "I'm curious how you excavated this maze? What is the purpose of digging such a big maze? Is it to prevent someone from accidentally breaking into the underground dark room?"

Leng Qing was like a curious baby, asking questions tirelessly.

"When this maze was first built, in order to reduce the danger of being discovered by digging directly from the Qingxin Palace, Mu Wen led people to excavate from outside the palace to the palace. Although it is not very difficult to determine the location of the Qingxin Hall by digging in the opposite direction in this way, it is not very difficult because Wang Quan and Mu Wen used the 'Sound Transmission Secret Technique' to cooperate with each other on the ground.

As for why this maze is excavated, there is indeed a reason to prevent others from accidentally entering. But more importantly, there is a secret passage behind this maze that leads directly to the outside of the palace wall, and the exit of the secret passage is in a private house in the capital not far from the palace wall. That house was also the www.biquge.info of the Biqu Pavilion where the secret passages were first excavated.

When the secret passage was excavated, it was purely because it was inconvenient to leave the palace from time to time, so that the lord or Wang Quan and Mu Wen could go out of the palace through this secret passage. However, because the exit of the secret passage was outside the palace wall, and the house was unguarded, in order to prevent anyone from accidentally breaking into the house and finding the exit of the secret passage into the secret passage, the master ordered this maze to be excavated.

With this completely dark maze full of traps and traps as a barrier, no matter which end outsiders enter from here, without someone familiar with the terrain to lead, let alone get out of the maze, it is a question of whether the intruder can safely exit the maze. That way, you don't have to worry about being found on the other side of the secret passage. Wang Quan, who was walking in front of Leng Qing, was not impatient at all about Leng Qing's question, and always answered Leng Qing patiently and carefully. (To be continued.) )
