Chapter 373: Jigsaw Puzzle

Dongfang Rui didn't know this, but when he heard this, he suddenly said: "By the way, I said before that the person who framed me at the beginning was your grandfather Dongfang Zheng, since he forced me away, he has become the first heir to the position of the head of the family, and he naturally inherited the position of head of the house in a short period of time." Be careful, this man is cunning and scheming, and he will be the biggest obstacle to your mother's salvation. ”

Su Qiubai frowned when he heard this, he knew that his grandfather was in a high position in the Taiyi Sect, but he didn't expect that he was now the head of a faction. Since he has the final say here, the little luck he had before, thinking that maybe he could be able to persuade them to release his mother by reasoning, now it seems that it will not work.

"Let's not talk about him for now, let me think of a way, there must be a way to see what the puzzle pattern of your cell is, give me a little more time." Su Qiubai tried to calm his thoughts and said.

Dongfang Rui stopped talking when he heard this, anyway, Taiyi Sect has been calm for many years, and most of those night vigil disciples are dereliction of duty, and it is impossible to find out that someone has infiltrated here in a short time.

Su Qiubai thought for a long time, suddenly took two steps back, stared at the cell in front of him, looked at it for a long time, and then walked to the door of the other cells to look, just walked around and looked for a long time, and finally saw the clue.

The cells here are made of wooden fences, and Su Qiubai carefully found that these wooden fences have some messy and strange patterns on them, which look like markings on wood, and they are also chaotic from a distance, and no one can find the connection between them. But there was a thin gap in the side of each fence, and at first he thought it was just the result of cracking the old wood, but when he looked at the other cells, he found it.

Dongfang Rui didn't know what Su Qiubai was doing, so he asked, "Do you see anything?" ”

Su Qiubai only said: "I don't know yet, I'll give it a try." ”

After saying that, he stepped forward and tried to push the wooden fences, only to find that the fences had not moved at all.

Did you guess wrong? If not, what are those crevices for?

Dongfang Rui saw his intentions, so he said: "Even if it is a puzzle, there is always a piece missing to move other sections, this fence is not broken, how to push it?" ”

Dongfang Rui's words can be said to wake up the person in the dream, Su Qiubai immediately tried to remove the wooden fence when he heard this, and finally took down the one in the upper right corner.

Since the fence can be removed, it is obvious that this fence is also a huge puzzle piece, so Su Qiubai immediately started to put it together.

It turns out that there is a rather thin iron wire in the middle of the wooden fence, if there is no enchantment, this kind of tofu scum project, only a kitchen knife can be used to escape from prison.

Now that he knew the trick, Su Qiubai quickly put together the diagram, and saw that the wooden fence constituted a tiger-shaped totem.

Su Qiubai quickly ran to the depths of the corridor and began to put together the patterns in the disc again, because the plates here are relatively special, and different spelling methods can spell out different patterns, so he has to be more cautious than before, otherwise if he accidentally spells out other patterns, it will not be Dongfang Rui who will be released.

After fighting for more than half an hour, Su Qiubai's forehead had already begun to sweat, he was not so nervous when he dealt with Zhou Shen, but in the end, he finally spelled it out.

After putting together the tiger-shaped totem, Su Qiubai ran back to Dongfang Rui's cell door, pinched the old-fashioned iron lock with a slight pinch, and then opened the cell door and said, "Let's see if I can get out." ”

Dongfang Rui took his left leg suspiciously, and when he got out of the prison door, he found that there was no hindrance, so he took another step with confidence, and finally said happily: "It's really terrifying!" I know that the picture is not easy to spell, and even if I know the trick, it is not so easy to spell. ”

Su Qiubai hurriedly said: "This is not the place to talk, let's talk about it after we leave." ”

Dongfang Rui nodded, and then walked out with Su Qiubai.

As they passed through the other cells, the prisoners shouted to them, "Please let me out!" ”

"Don't be too troubled, go quickly." Dongfang Rui didn't look at those people.

Su Qiubai was also worried about the complications, so he quickly followed Dongfang Rui out.

Back in the darkness, both of their eyes were momentarily uncomfortable. Su Qiubai found the mechanism again and closed the door of the cave, and then took Dongfang Rui into the darkness.

The area of Taiyi Gate is very large, but not all places are inhabited, and most of them are empty.

Dongfang Rui took Su Qiubai to a safe place, this is a place to collect books, and no one will come at night.

"Both of our luggage have been searched, and I don't know where they were put now, but there are your important belongings in there?" Dongfang Rui asked.

Su Qiubai said: "There are a lot of magic weapons in it, but the most important thing is not in it, so it doesn't hurt to get it back when you have the opportunity in the future." ”

Dongfang Rui nodded and said, "That's good." Tomorrow at dawn, they will know that I have escaped, and there will be some turmoil in the door. When the time comes, we will take advantage of the chaos to find your mother's traces. ”

Su Qiubai thought for a while, and suddenly asked, "But if we find our mother, how can we leave?" ”

Dongfang Rui also frowned when he heard this, this is a problem, it may not be difficult for them to find Dongfang Miao while they are in chaos, but the Taiyi Gate during the day is not as negligent in defense as it is now, let alone after the turmoil?

Seeing this, Su Qiubai said: "It's better to start looking for it now, if there is a chance, we will take her away directly, even if we can't find it, we can reduce some time for tomorrow's search." ”

Dongfang Rui thought about it, finally nodded, and said, "Okay, let's go." ”

After rescuing Dongfang Rui, Su Qiubai's eyes were no longer as black as before, although he had left here decades ago, the general structure would always not change.

"Your mother is the daughter of the head of the house, and even if he captures her, she will not be imprisoned, so she is mostly under house arrest in her own room. The place where the head of the previous dynasty lived was behind the ancestral hall, as his daughter, and Ah Miao, who was arrested, must not be too far away. Let's go straight to that area, and we should get something. Dongfang Rui analyzed.

Su Qiubai nodded and said, "I don't know anything about the terrain here, and I will listen to you." ”

The two carefully avoided the vigil disciples, and finally found the Hall of the Ancestors before dawn.

Because this is where the head of Dongfang Zheng lives, the guards are much heavier than other places, but those guards are ordinary disciples, and their cultivation is not more than the yellow level, and some of them are only at the Xuan level, and their cultivation cannot detect the whereabouts of the two at all, so the two of them only need to be careful not to be noticed by Dongfang Zheng.

There are also many residences around the Xianzu Hall, and most of the people living in them are important people such as the elders of the door, and according to Dongfang Rui's guess, Dongfang Miao's residence must be the closest one to the Xianzu Hall, and it may even be in the Xianzu Hall.

"It's also a question of how to make sure who's living in each house." Dongfang Rui said embarrassedly.

Su Qiubai said confidently: "Don't worry, this is on me." ”

What Dongfang Rui didn't know was that his divine sense could go out of his body to explore the surrounding situation, and he could know the appearance of the people in the room without entering the room.

The houses outside the Xianzu Hall were checked, but there were no women of the same age as Dongfang Miao, and now the remaining targets are all in the Xianzu Hall, and this is equivalent to moving under Dongfang Zheng's nose, and there is a possibility of being discovered if you are not careful.

But they all came, and they couldn't help but take this risk, so the two of them simply sneaked into the ancestral hall.

By this time the sky had begun to turn blue, and it was clear that it was almost dawn, so they didn't have much time left.

Fortunately, there are not many houses with people living in the ancestral hall, and it didn't take long for the two to find a woman who was suspected of being Dongfang Miao.

"The woman in this room is about forty or fifty years old, and it is likely that she is my mother." Su Qiubai whispered.

Dongfang Rui looked at him in surprise and asked in disbelief, "You don't know what your mother looks like?" ”

Su Qiubai nodded embarrassedly and said, "Not long after I was born, my mother was brought back to Taiyimen, so I haven't seen her. And she didn't have any pictures left, so I never knew what she looked like. ”

Dongfang Rui had a helpless expression on his face, although he had seen Dongfang Miao, but it was when she was very young, and now that decades have passed, even if he still remembers what she looked like at the beginning, he will definitely not recognize her.

"In the area of Xianzu Hall, she is the only one who is about the same age as my mother, if it weren't for her, there would be no one else." Su Qiubai said worriedly.

The two of them hesitated in the doorway, muttering to each other, but the woman in the room did not hear the sound. Asked, "Who's outside?" ”

At this time, it was too late for the two of them to hide, in case she was really Dongfang Miao, in this way, she alarmed the others because she didn't know, and this matter would be much more troublesome.

After figuring this out, the two simply pushed the door directly into the room, in order to prevent the woman from panicking when she saw a stranger, Su Qiubai spoke first: "May I ask if you are my mother Dongfang Miao?" ”

He not only asked his own question in this sentence, but also showed his identity, if the other party was really Dongfang Miao, he would never shout because of panic when he heard this sentence, if she was not, then it would only be fate.

"Are you ......" The woman did not shout, but looked at the two of them in disbelief, because it was too dark, and went to the table again and lit the lamp.

With the dim light of the oil lamp, the two sides finally saw each other's faces clearly, and Su Qiubai had the opportunity to take a closer look at this woman, who was most likely his mother.

If she were Dongfang Miao, then she would be forty-nine years old this year, but she was well maintained, she looked less than forty years old, and she could see how radiant she was when she was young.
