Chapter 127: The Third Layer of Mystery
Following Yun Chu as he strode out of the tower, I couldn't help but look back at the tower again.
The line of sight is naturally inseparable from the top of the tower.
What's in the third floor of the White Jade Pagoda?
I'm afraid this will be the most difficult mystery of this underground trip.
The jade staircase at the entrance of the second floor, covered with dark red blood stains, will be the most terrifying part of reminiscing about this operation in the future.
Now that the few people have left the tower, the next goal is to find another road leading to the outside of the Hidden Vault that the Nine Princesses mentioned before.
According to past experience, this path should be hidden in a certain organ in the entire hall.
Without further ado, the few of us scattered without saying a word, and the tacit understanding that had been cultivated since entering the underground passage worked once again.
I am already standing at the bottom of a cave, and when I look up, I can see the highest hole, and the things that Chen Yuqing found here are very strange, a whole book of classics.
…… At that time, the secret place was almost completely swept by us, and all the jade treasures were found, but only the classics here were a little different.
Because of the huge quantity, Chen Yuqing couldn't move it, so when he came down, he rummaged through it and picked out a small sealed wooden box, which was buried deep in the bottom surrounded by a large number of classics, which looked really unusual.
After he came down, the wooden box was also delivered to Yun Chu as soon as possible.
The box is pale cyan in color, and it seems to be made of some kind of wood, because there is a faint smell of wood when you smell it closely.
The edges of the box are sealed with wax and seamless.
When Yun Chu opened it, it was actually a fragment of a map inside.
Because there was a missing piece in the middle. Rao is a smart and well-informed person like Yun Chu, but he couldn't figure it out in a short period of time.
But just as Yun Chu opened the small wooden box and was about to put it away again, a very strange scene appeared, the fragment quickly dimmed at a speed that was almost visible to the naked eye, but after a while, no trace on it could be seen.
Isn't that a waste of effort?
Originally, I wanted to wait until I went out and study the map with Yun Chu to study it properly.
I think it seems to be inseparable from the Nanling Miaojiang family.
Pity. Now this originally planned plan has completely failed.
I felt an indescribable chagrin in my heart, because I only had time to glance at it a few times.
Yun Chu saw what was on my mind, raised his hand and tapped his head, I was stunned before I reacted, and my heart blossomed.
This is the gap! It's a computer that moves.
My mood suddenly improved, and I glanced at him. She grinned at him.
…… Right now, I'm standing at the bottom of the highest grotto, secretly hesitating whether to go up and take a look at it again, since Chen Yuqing can pull out a small box of treasures from it, I'll look for it, will there be any new discoveries.
Chen Yuqing and Lan Tianfang were rummaging through one of the boxes in a relatively small grotto in the distance, it was rare that the two of them had the same goal, and the things found in it were said to be very similar to what the Martyr Jade Pavilion had found in Bering Mountain in the past.
From the first time I heard the word Bering Mountain from Chen Yuqing's mouth, I felt that Lan Tianfang was also very interested in that place.
This is also a small detail that I did not miss in this operation, and I will definitely ask Yun Chu for advice again when I go back.
Yun Chu was alone, and he went around to the back of the main hall. At the same time, he was behind the White Jade Tower, and he didn't know what he was looking at the huge wall.
I took a look and didn't find anything strange, Yun Chu obviously had the opposite opinion of mine.
At this moment, everyone is quiet in their own busyness, at such a juncture. No one noticed that the person who was supposed to follow us had quietly retreated in the direction of the White Jade Pagoda.
For no reason, I actually shivered while standing in place, and when I remembered that something was wrong, I shouted in an instant as if I was facing a great enemy.
"Where is the Ninth Princess?"
The voice was very loud, and as soon as the words fell, the other three people turned around in unison and flew towards me.
At the same time, we can hear the gate on the ground floor of the White Jade Pagoda slamming shut!
"Not good!" My face changed, "The Ninth Princess actually went into the tower." “
So she's untied from her hands? Could it be that the previous state was all designed to deceive us?
"What is she going to do. Obviously, the second layer is a dead end. Chen Yuqing gritted her teeth and said, "This woman should have tied her feet just now, and I don't know what will go wrong." “
"You're saying this as an afterthought, you might as well leave her out of the pit. It's not too late to take her when we're done exploring the vault. “
Lan Tianfang heard our conversation, his expression was gloomy, his lips moved, his expression seemed a little urgent but he didn't say a word.
After all, he was more familiar with the relationship with the Ninth Princess than anyone present, and he promised not to leave the only son of the Ninth Princess.
In front of everyone with different expressions, I noticed that Yun Chu's reaction was very strange, really strange.
His eyes sparkled, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and I wondered if I had seen it wrong, why he was not only not nervous, but also seemed to be a little happy.
However, this expression was only for a short moment, and soon his face was light.
I looked at him uncertainly, and my eyes turned to the top of the tower.
The White Jade Pagoda had been closed, and when we arrived at the gate of the tower, the Ninth Princess didn't know what mechanism had been activated inside, because the gate couldn't be opened.
I couldn't see inside, but I could hear the movement.
Chen Yuqing stood under the tower and shouted, "Ninth Princess, what are you going to do?" The second floor is a dead end, didn't you see Miao Jiang's old poison dying there? ”
He added: "I can't find the corpse capital." ”
"Joke," the ninth princess in the tower responded, because of the distance, there was nothing in the tower except the paintings on the four walls, and the voice sounded a little echo when it came.
"Since I can get in. Naturally, there is a way to crack it. Her voice sounded smug.
"Even if you can avoid the mechanism on the second floor, can you guarantee that you can go to the top of the tower on the third floor?" Lan Tianfang's voice was a little low, and there was helplessness in his tone, "Besides, even if you can go to the top and take what you want." Do you think you can outcompete the four of us with your kung fu? ”
After a few seconds of silence, there was a burst of laughter in the tower, and the Ninth Princess said, "You seem to have made a mistake. ”
Her voice couldn't hide the joy, and I was waiting for her to give the answer, but the laughter stopped abruptly.
Could it be that what she said was false, and the second-floor mechanism was connected to her ancestors. Those old poisons of Miao Jiang couldn't avoid the killing moves that died here, how could she easily break them.
I seemed to see a new dark red mark on the jade white stone steps, and I couldn't help but shudder.
"Ninth Princess," I decided to test it again, so I tried to ask, "So you have a way to directly break the mechanism and go up to the top of the tower." “
"That's nature."
"In that case, can I guess," I paused, and said the thought that had been circling in my mind just now, "is it the path you know?" Exactly inside the White Jade Pagoda? “
As soon as these words came out, Lan Tianfang and Chen Yuqing's reactions were a little surprised, only Yun Chu's expression was as calm as ever.
Laughter came from the tower again, and the Ninth Princess said, "Yes, I didn't expect that at this time, you finally figured it out." ”
I really figured it out. The so-called being fascinated by the paintings at the bottom can appear on me, on Chen Yuqing and Lan Tianfang, the probability of appearing on her is not high, and now it seems that it is completely her move.
The Ninth Princess knew more about the Vault than we did, and she was waiting for a gap when everyone's attention turned to the outside of the tower to find a way out, and she had a chance to dive back into the tower.
There was a lot of movement in the white jade tower, and what I could hear in my ears was the sound of several sharp objects intertwining and colliding.
The commotion soon came to an end.
The hesitant voice of the ninth princess Zhiman came from inside the tower: "The box is still there." It didn't come in vain. “
As she spoke, I suddenly heard an extremely crisp sound, and the direction of this sound was the inside of the White Jade Pagoda.
"Look at the top!" Chen Yuqing shouted out of voice.
Several of us turned our eyes to the third floor of the White Jade Pagoda at the same time.
A strange scene has appeared!
After the crisp sound of the White Jade Tower, the top of its third layer was actually changing.
As soon as the mechanism was touched, the jade pillars on the top structure of the tower began to move in an instant. As if a magical big hand was playing with it, the originally conical treasure top began to descend and gradually retracted.
"How so!" The Nine Princesses in the tower exclaimed, "Impossible, impossible, I'm already very careful!" “
What happened, I stared closely at the top of the tower and found that the structure of the third floor of the white jade pagoda was changing.
After the ensuing noise passed, the top conical treasure top of the White Jade Pagoda disappeared.
Could the ninth princess be ......
"That's right," Chen Yuqing's gaze narrowed to the top of the tower, "If I'm not mistaken, the nine princesses in the third layer are afraid that they will be trapped by the descending top and won't be able to get out." ”
"You mean, the three layers of the White Jade Pagoda have been combined into a cage?" I haven't calmed down from the shock yet.
What kind of person designed this, it's so magical.
"I must have touched the mechanism," while responding to this speculation, the Ninth Princess shouted, "I didn't touch anything, I only took the box on the third layer of the jade platform where the map was stored." ”
"As my mother said, as soon as the box on the third floor is removed, the mechanism will open the path...... No, no, it's the tower that will open the path...... It's not like this, it shouldn't be like this......"
"Ninth Princess," Yun Chu stood outside the tower with his hands in his hands, and was about to talk to her who was a little incoherent, when a vibration came from a distance that made him completely unable to care about it.
Today is really a blessing for the eyes, this is the second time I have seen Yun Chu exert his light skills with all his might, almost towards the back of the tower like the wind.
What happened?
I intuitively felt that Yun Chu's speed must be related to the top floor of the White Jade Pagoda that had just changed!
Could it be that a new situation has emerged?!
