Chapter 12: The Maze of Yushan

Meng Qingque swept the surrounding scenery and said, "Do you see any difference?"

Su Jue didn't say a word, suddenly tore off a piece of fabric from his body and hung it on the branch of a willow tree, and said, "Let's go, this time we will only open the door on the right." ”

"Well, listen to Brother Su. ”

They walked through several courtyards again, but they never saw the piece of cloth that Su Jue had hung.

At this time, Xuan Shuang also understood and said: "It turns out that we are not walking around the same place, but we enter a completely different place every time, but the scenery is the same. ”

"It seems that this is the case, we don't have much time, if according to Miss Xuanshuang, we will be sent back in half an hour. ”

"Well, that's right. ”

Meng Qingque mentioned this, and also said: "When the Xuanshuang girl took us down just now, it was in the east, and the jade gate was built facing north, but aren't we completely directionless in the illusion like this?"

"No, it's true that the layout of the scenery here can be replicated, but some things can't. ”

"For example?" Seeing Su Jue looking at the swaying wind chimes in the corner of the house, Yue Qianlong guessed: "Are you talking about the wind?"

"Yes, but not too right. ”

"Brother Su, what do you mean by this?"

"It's the direction of the wind. ”

"Wind direction?" Yue Qianlong thought for a moment, by the way, when she stepped into Yushan, she noticed that the mountain wind here was not small, and after this mausoleum was opened, it also left a wind outlet, even if they were in the tomb, they could sense the underground wind. It is true that a clever illusionist can create an illusion that is fake, but the caster cannot change the direction of the wind. Yue Qianlong looked at the wind chimes hanging in every corner of the house, which should be the clue left by the caster.

Seeing everyone's expressions of understanding, Su Jue continued: "When we first went down to the mausoleum, the north wind was blowing here, and the direction of the underground wind could not change in a moment, and the tassels on the wind chimes were skewed in one direction along the way. ”

Xuan Shuang nodded approvingly, and there was a smile of appreciation in his eyebrows: "Young Master Su is really observant. ”

"Our Ah Jue is just different. Su Lingxi proudly patted Su Jue's shoulder, "It turns out that you knew it as early as when you used cloth as a mark?"

"It's just speculation, and I don't know if it's true or not. But we don't know the layout of this mausoleum, and even if we know the direction, we don't know which way to go safely, which is the biggest problem now. ”

"Su Gongzi don't worry, the main burial chamber of the mausoleum is in the east, and we are in the southwest of it, now we just need to continue to the east. ”

"Miss Xuanshuang, do you know the layout of this mausoleum?"

"I ...... In fact, I only know a little bit about it, and I don't know the details. ”

No wonder Jiang Yan said that she was a good helper, what is the relationship between this person and the owner of the tomb? Meng Qingque and Su Jue glanced at each other, and both of them were guessing the same point.

"Alright, let's go east first. ”

The group walked through several identical courtyards in the direction pointed out by the wind chimes, and before long a different room appeared in front of them, which was simply furnished and had nothing but a sliding door.

"Su Gongzi really guessed right. ”

"But what's behind this door?"

"Qingque, let's keep walking. Yue Qianlong said and pushed the wooden door on the right, and more than a dozen push doors behind the door also opened one after another, leading out a narrow corridor, and the light was faintly visible at the end of the corridor. After a few people ran through the corridor in one go, they saw a magic circle glowing with purple light.

Yue Qianlong slowed down and said, "It seems that we have passed the first level." ”

"Hmm. ”

"I don't know what has changed in this circle, everyone be careful when they go in. ”

Several people entered it one by one after answering Su Jue, and the array seemed to be spiritual, and after they entered, it changed color and slowly disappeared.

"Master, they have all gone in. ”

"Well, good. Outside the mausoleum stood a man and a woman, the young man dressed in a beautiful and delicate manner, his black hair scattered and untied, except for the messy hair of his temples that was tied behind his head by a silver chain. I have to say that this person is very good-looking, there are five points of elegance in his face, three points of dust, and the rest is two points of domineering grandeur when he was young.

He walked a few steps, stepped forward and bowed respectfully three times, then turned to the woman beside him, and asked, "Le Wu, everything has been arranged?"

"Master, the layout of the mausoleum has been changed according to your orders. ”

"Good. ”

"But......" the woman replied with some concern: "If you change the formation and feng shui without authorization, if this matter is known to the prince and the princess, you will definitely be punished, master." ”

"What about the punishment, as long as I can fulfill his wishes, I should be punished whatever I want. ”

The woman said no more, she took a few steps back, far behind the man.

After entering the magic circle, they walked to an ordinary tomb road, which was cold and damp, and although there were ever-bright magic lamps lit on both sides, it was still chilling to walk in it.

"Sister Xuanshuang, you see how this lamp is made, I don't see that there is no lamp oil in it, why is the fire blue after burning?"

"This is a magic lamp, and it is said that it is also a kind of magic used by Yin Yang Warlocks, although there is no lamp oil, but it can last for thousands of years. ”

"Is it? Can it really light up for a thousand years?" Su Lingxi said, running to the wall to get a closer look at the faint blue flames.

"Plain girl, don't touch it!"

Being yelled at by Xuan Shuang like this, Su Lingxi didn't touch the flames, but she didn't stand firm for a while, and she threw herself on the wall.

"Eh, eh, eh...... What's going on, what's going on? I can't get up!"

"Lingxi!" Seeing that Su Lingxi was swallowed by the wall, Meng Qingque, who was closest to her, hurriedly took her hand, but she didn't expect Meng Qingque herself to be eaten by the thick wall, and the two disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Lingxi, Qingque!"

Su Jue immediately rushed from the front, but when he touched the wall, the stone wall became nothing unusual, where would it eat people? Su Jue drew his sword and slashed at the wall, and there was still no movement, not even a scratch.

"How can this be?" Su Jue slapped the wall hard and shouted, "Lingxi, Qingque, can you hear it?" Lingxi ......"

"Miss Xuanshuang, didn't you say that all the things in this mausoleum are illusions and mazes, and they never hurt people's lives?

"Miss Yue, I've been here a few times before, but I've never encountered this situation, but I believe that Miss Su and Meng Gongzi were just taken to other tombs, and they were by no means sealed in this stone wall, Su Gongzi slashed the wall with a sword just now but didn't react at all, so I guess this wall is just a medium, not a killing mechanism. ”

Su Jue calmed down, and finally asked the question in his heart: "Miss Xuanshuang, why did you go down to this mausoleum?"

"Jiang Yan should have told Su Gongzi about this matter, I have my own reasons as a last resort. ”

"Lingxi and Qingque have already had an accident, do you still want to hide something from us?"

"I ......" Xuanshuang gritted her teeth, but she still looked like she was as immobile as a mountain, "Master Su, Miss Yue, I promise that as long as my life is still alive, I will let a few people go out safely, and the rest of Xuanshuang can't say much." For the sake of today, we should find a way to reach the main tomb first, and maybe we can meet Miss Su and Meng Gongzi on the way. ”

Yue Qianlong glanced at Su Jue after hearing this, "She's right, since she is here, she can only finish it quickly." ”

"Okay, then everyone be careful, don't mess with things along the way. ”

"We understand. ”

The three agreed, and after passing through the long passage, they saw a large stone chamber, full of things, what appeared to be a place for miscellaneous items, but the door to the next chamber was closed, and they could not push it open, no matter how hard they tried.

Yue Qianlong wiped the dust off his head, and after careful observation, he found a concave trace, and shouted: "It seems that a key is needed to open this door, and brute force will not work." ”

"And where is the key?"

"Since there is no way out ahead, it must be around here, let's look carefully. ”

Su Jue and Yue Qianlong acted separately, and only Xuan Shuang stood alone in front of the door, as if thinking about something.

"Miss Xuanshuang, what are you doing in a daze?"

"Miss Yue, you don't have to look for it, the key is on me. ”

"What?" Yue Qianlong amazed as she took out a jade pendant-like ornament from the embroidered bag around her waist, "This is the key?"

"That's exactly what it looks like in terms of shape. Xuan Shuang nodded, and after she put the jade pendant inside, she heard a sound around her, and the stone door moved faintly, but it didn't take long for it to open from both sides.

What appeared in front of them was a spacious room, which looked like a bedroom of a large family, and the decoration was very festive, with big red wedding words pasted on the lamps, and the wedding cakes of the fruit on the table, like a wedding room.

Strange, this is obviously a mausoleum, how can there be a marriage room? Yue Qianlong glanced at the pair of dragon and phoenix red candles still burning on the table, and the vigilance in her heart was even worse, and she walked forward little by little as she slowed down. The red curtain on the wedding bed was pulled down, and the red tent looked particularly strange under the light of the lamp. Could it be that there is still such a thing as a secret marriage?

"Su Jue, there may be something on this bed, we have to open the curtain and take a look. ”

"Hmm. Su Jue responded, approached Yue Qianlong behind him, and said, "I'll come, be careful." ”

Su Jue's fingers had already touched the curtain, he suddenly pulled it open and took a few steps back, there were indeed two people lying on the bed, looking at their clothes, they were obviously a couple of newly married couples, but the faces of those two people were abstract and blurry, and the heavy makeup made people feel very weird. Because they are not corpses, but two paper figures made of paper paste.
