Chapter 218: Holding Zhao Yueniang hostage
Li Qian stretched out his hand and touched the iron cabinet, which happened to touch the octagon, and then said softly: "This is the gossip lock." ”
Lu Xuanying immediately said curiously: "How do you know?"
Li Qian said slowly: "I know, this is a kind of secret lock, the pattern on the lock is an innate gossip, as long as the gossip direction is aligned with the eight directions of east, west, north and south, the secret lock can be opened." Li Qian naturally couldn't say that he had obtained the inheritance of the Sword God, and he was just hiding at the moment.
Lu Xuanying didn't think much about it, and when she heard this, she instantly said with joy: "Do you know the direction of the gossip?"
Li Qian immediately said: "There is a black rumbling here, the sun, moon and stars are gone, how can we distinguish the east, west, north and south? Besides, even if we get the pure yang box, how can we get out?"
Lu Xuanying snorted lightly: "Coward!" Then I saw Lu Xuanying take out a dagger from his sleeve and pick the secret lock. Li Qian held her hand and whispered: "This lock is very delicate, if it is broken, it will never be opened again." If I think about it, if the old ghost puts the lock here, there should be a way to determine the direction in the dark room. ”
Li Qian pondered for a moment, and when he looked up, he saw the small hole on the top of his head. With an idea, he smiled and said, "I see, the old ghost is really cunning." ”
Lu Xuanying couldn't help but be surprised: "Why are you cunning?"
Li Qian said: "At first, I thought that this small hole was used for light transmission, but it turned out to be used for other purposes. ”
Lu Xuanying said angrily: "If you have something to say, don't sell Guanzi." ”
Li Qian said slowly: "You know, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, and when it is in the east, the sunlight will inevitably shine through the small holes and shine towards the west. If the sun is in the west, the sunlight will shine through the small holes and will shine in the east. This is common sense, Lu Xuanying understood it as soon as she heard it, and looked through the small hole, and a thin beam of light entered the room obliquely from the hole, leaving a little spot in front of the iron cabinet. Li Qian also said: "When we came in, the sun was still in the east, and the direction of this light was the west. ”
In the Book of Changes, the innate gossip has its own direction. The Lixun hexagram is in the south, the Kan hexagram is in the north, the Dui hexagram is in the west, the Zhen hexagram is in the east, the Qiangua is in the northwest, the Kun hexagram is in the southwest, the Xun hexagram is in the southeast, and the Gen hexagram is in the northeast. Li Qian set the direction of the west, and then touched the symbol of the Bagua lock to represent the "exchange" hexagram, turned to the west, and the "leaving" hexagram turned to the opposite east. Things must be placed, and the other six parties are also placed one by one.
Lu Xuanying looked at it and wondered in her heart, and said secretly: "This little pervert knows a lot, not all of them are straw bales. ”
When Li Qian transferred the "Qian" hexagram to the southwest, and the innate gossip returned to its place, there was a gurgling sound in the iron cabinet. Li Qian lifted it hard, and the iron cover rose in response. The outer wall of the iron cabinet is about a few feet thick, but the inside is very narrow, Lu Xuanying reached into it and touched an iron box half a foot square, the tentacles were cold, and there was no speciality. I immediately took it and put it in the bag. Suddenly, I heard Wang Ming snort, and it seemed that he was suffering again. Lu Xuanying whispered, "Let's sneak out." ”
Li Qian nodded, lifted his breath and lightened his body, and was about to jump out, when he suddenly heard a long laugh, which resounded in the sky above Lei Gong City. A clear voice came from afar: "Where is the Taicheng Lord? The junior of the Divine Sect, Yun Wanli asks to see you!"
Li Qian and Lu Xuanying were all shocked when they heard this. This person was none other than the young literati who had fought against Hulun. Wang Ming was fighting the prince alone, and he was feeling struggling, and shouted when he heard the voice: "The prince is here!"
The prince said angrily: "Wang Ming, do you want to disobey the ancestral teachings and leak the matter of the iron box to outsiders?"
Wang Ming sneered and said: "Whoever violates the ancestral teachings, everyone knows in their hearts. ”
The prince was silent, and the wind and thunder on his fist became louder and louder. Suddenly, I heard Yun Wanli laugh, and in a blink of an eye, he was already close, and said loudly: "Four of you move slowly, where is the Taicheng Lord?"
Outsiders were present, and the prince had no choice but to stop fighting, and said coldly: "The water of the Shentong Gate and my Lei Gong City's well does not interfere with the river water, and the foot trespasses on my city, what is the reason?"
Yun Wanli said with a smile: "The junior tracked the three opponents, all the way here. According to the friends of the Great Wilderness, two people came to Guicheng, and the younger generation was afraid that they would hide in the fort city, so they broke in in a hurry. If there is any inappropriateness, please forgive me. ”
Hearing Yun Wanli's politeness, the prince's anger calmed down a little, he was in a hurry at this time, and he just wanted to send someone early, so he said: "Okay, I'll look at the face of the master of the supernatural power." Tai Minglang, you accompany Yun Gongzi to search around to see if anyone has infiltrated. ”
Tai Minglang answered, and in the blink of an eye, he suddenly heard Prince En shouting angrily: "Good thief?"
Lu Xuanying couldn't help but look through the crack in the door, only to see Tai Minglang and Yun Wanli standing in the distance, Wang Ming waving a long sword in his hand, and fighting with Prince En's fists in a hurry. Zhao Yueniang is like a yellow bird drilling into the clouds, jumping straight to the rockery. It turned out that the brother and sister took advantage of the distraction of Prince En's speech and moved together, and Prince En was brushed by Wang Ming with several swords and blocked aside. Zhao Yueniang took the opportunity to grab the rockery, and was about to drill in, when she suddenly felt a numbness on her waist, and a stream of spiritual power directly entered her body, and her body was numb in an instant.
Lu Xuanying "giggled", copied Zhao Yueniang into her arms, and got out of the room. Li Qian also swept out. The sudden appearance of the two people made everyone stunned.
I saw Lu Xuanying smile and said: "Lord Taicheng, Mr. Wang, let's discuss, you let us out of the city, and I will return your daughter-in-law and sister-in-law." ”
Prince En's eyes seemed to erupt with fire, and he sneered: "Do your big dream of spring and autumn!"
Tai Minglang's face was pale, and he said in a panic: "Father, it's important to save people." ”
Lu Xuanying smiled and said: "Don't be angry, Lord Taicheng, I found a very interesting thing in the rockery just now, do you want to take a look?"
When Prince En heard this, his heart instantly chuckled, and the blood on his face was gone.
Wang Ming's eyes rolled, and then he smiled: "What good things did the girl find?" Wang wants to take a look. ”
Lu Xuanying smiled lightly and replied, "Boss Wang, your sister-in-law is dedicated to helping you, and she doesn't hesitate to offend her husband's family, so you don't care if she lives or dies?"
Wang Ming was stunned, thinking that the iron box would be recovered, but if he didn't care about the girl's life or death, it would ruin his reputation. Although he was angry, he had to grit his teeth and sneer. Lu Xuanying smiled at Tai Minglang again: "Young City Lord, what about you?"
Tai Minglang didn't think about it, and hurriedly said: "Don't hurt Yue Niang, whatever you say, I will depend on you!"
Lu Xuanying said a few words, stumped the three masters, was very proud, and looked at the clouds in a blink of an eye. He stood in the distance with a long sword on his back, a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and he couldn't help but think, "This person laughs hatefully, but he doesn't know how to deal with it." Hmph, leave him alone for now. ”
Immediately, Mei's eyes turned, and he said with a smile: "The young city lord is knowledgeable, and when I leave the castle, I will return Zhao Yueniang to you and let her give birth to two big fat boys for you." ”
