Chapter 1461: Surveillance Formation
Cheng Mengying looked around and found that this fork in the road connected several gates in different directions, some seemed to be secret rooms, and some should be the existence of exits or entrances.
Every now and then, someone would come in through an opening, holding bits and pieces in their hands, and then hurriedly go in another direction, and disappear at the end of the secret passage in a blink of an eye.
There seem to be magic circles in several places in the entire secret passage, for example, as long as someone enters or leaves the door, a silver-white light will light up on the door, which looks like a small magic circle, I don't know what it is used for.
Those who were dressed in subordinate services seemed to completely ignore the tied eldest lady when they passed by Shao Dangjia and Cheng Mengying, but bowed respectfully to Shao Dangjia, and then turned around and left in a hurry.
The young master stood at the fork in the road for a while, as if observing the situation of the people coming and going, and then walked towards a gate, and then took Cheng Mengying to push open the door and enter a secret room.
After Cheng Mengying walked into the secret room, she was still looking back at the slowly closing door, mainly staring at the light on it, wanting to see what the magic circle looked like, but because the light was too bright, she never saw it clearly.
"Looks like you're interested in this circle?" The young master discovered Cheng Mengying's abnormality, but he didn't stop it, but said with a triumphant look.
"Hmph, what's there to be interested in?" Cheng Mengying was caught, and snorted a little uncomfortably: "Isn't it just a magic circle for lighting?" Flashy, useless! β
"You'd be wrong!" The young master raised his eyebrows, pointed to the magic circle on the secret door and said, "This magic circle is not for lighting. Instead, it's used to detect the situation and prevent the enemy from invading! β
Cheng Mengying looked at the slightly glowing magic circle with a surprised expression. I can't think of such a small circle. How can you prevent the enemy from invading?
"Since you're also a high-level immortal cultivator, you should sometimes release your divine sense and probe the movements around you, right?" The young master seemed to be addicted to the commentary, and the head was introduced: "Once the divine consciousness of the immortal cultivator touches this kind of magic circle, it will automatically activate, and arrange all kinds of illusions in a targeted manner, so as to deceive the other party and let them see the wrong illusion!" Even if your servant Xiao Chen comes, he will still be surrounded by this magic circle! β
"It's like the real thing!" Cheng Mengying pursed her lips. I don't believe in the introduction of the young master: "Xiao Chen won't be deceived by this low-level trick!" You're just wasting your mind! β
Although she said this on the surface, she didn't have any bottom in her heart, firstly, Xiao Chen didn't know if she could rush over to save herself, and secondly, after this period of infiltration in the immortal cultivation world, she also knew that there were a lot of strange things in the immortal cultivation world, and she didn't know if Xiao Chen could easily recognize this kind of magic circle?
"Hahaha, Miss Cheng, you're too naΓ―ve, aren't you?" The young master looked up to the sky and laughed a few times, and walked to a corner of the room where the magic circle was drawn. Stretched out his hand and dragged the rope, dragged Cheng Mengying in, and said with a smug face: "Let the facts tell you the truth!" β
After finishing speaking, the young master began to operate the mental method. revealed the cultivation of the fifth layer of the Jindan stage, and then began to recite strange incantations silently in his mouth.
Cheng Mengying felt the strength of the young master, and felt a little annoyed. If you hadn't been tied up by this weird rope, it would have been easy to deal with this guy!
The young master didn't know Cheng Mengying's thoughts. Still finishing chanting the incantation step by step, I saw that the magic circle on the ground immediately emitted a soft white light. White light was cast onto the wall in front of the two of them, reflecting the image of the main entrance of a house.
Cheng Mengying stared at it and found that the mansion was no different from the house where she was arrested, except that there was a big sign hanging at the door, and there was nothing on the sign, it was blank, and it looked very strange.
"How can it look like a monitor...... Cheng Mengying muttered silently, although she is usually careless and doesn't know much about the abilities of cultivators, she still remembers hearing Xiao Chen mention that some magic circles seem to have the effect of surveillance.
"That's right, this is a surveillance formation, you can watch patiently! There's a good show to watch later! The young master nodded proudly and admitted directly.
Cheng Mengying was a little puzzled, looking at the young master's determined look, could it really be Xiao Chen coming?
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Xiao Chen and Elder Nangong to appear in the image reflected on the wall!
Cheng Mengying saw the familiar figure that she hadn't seen for a long time, her eyes suddenly turned red, and there was an indescribable excitement in her heart.
The two used to get along with each other a lot, Cheng Mengying didn't feel anything, after being separated for a while, she found out that she actually had a strong dependence on Xiao Chen, especially after entering the immortal cultivation realm, so many people were missing, and she couldn't find it if she wanted to, and she often woke up at night, worried about whether something happened to others.
At this time, seeing Xiao Chen appear safe and sound, Cheng Mengying didn't mention how happy he was, did he know that he was locked up here by bad guys, so he came to save himself?
The surveillance screen on the wall was still playing, and I saw Xiao Chen and Elder Nangong enter the mansion one after the other, Elder Nangong seemed to be familiar with the layout of the mansion, turned around and said something to Xiao Chen, and then took the lead and walked towards the room where the young master was.
Judging from the picture, Xiao Chen seemed to be more cautious, cautiously following behind Elder Nangong, looking around from time to time, as if looking for something, although his steps were very slow, he gradually left the scope of the surveillance screen.
"See? Miss Ben's maid came to save me! If you know each other, let Miss Ben go quickly! Cheng Mengying took a deep breath to calm down her emotions, and then shouted at the young master.
As if he hadn't heard Cheng Mengying speak, the young master walked directly to another magic circle, chanted a spell, and then another picture appeared on the wall, which seemed to be on the way to the main room of the mansion, Xiao Chen and Elder Nangong were walking in step by step.
There was no one else on the screen except for them, and the whole house looked very deserted.
"Did you hear me?" Cheng Mengying put on a fierce look, and threatened the young master: "Serve Miss Ben well, maybe I can also consider helping you ask for a favor or something, otherwise let my servant Xiao Chen beat you away!" He doesn't have such a good temper like me! (To be continued.) )
