If someone else said this, Xilingyue must have thought that he was extremely hypocritical. But when Li Chengxuan said this, she knew that he was not pretending to be modest, he really didn't care about these compliments, and he didn't pay attention to this kind of trick at all.

How can the gap between people be so big! Li Chengxuan is actually smart and handsome, and has such a good background, he doesn't even blink his eyes when he sees this gold! Xiling Yue suddenly felt extremely unbalanced, and couldn't help but pick up two ingots of gold nearby and put them in her arms.

"So much gold, you can make a few golden screens!" Xi Lingyue speculated, "If the murderer knows about this place, it is not impossible to steal some gold and make two screens to steal the beams and change the pillars." ”

Li Chengxuan also thought about it: "Li Hui said, this

Even he just knew the place, so it was very hidden. He paused and looked at Xiling Yue deliberately, "In this way, Pei Xingli can know about this, but he is a little suspicious." ”

Xi Lingyue couldn't help but defend him: "If it was really General Pei who did it, I would have been convicted a long time ago, why did he save me again and again?" Just now, he saved me again! ”

In fact, Li Chengxuan had no ill will towards Pei Xingli, he just wanted to test Xilingyue, and seeing that she was so resistant, he changed the topic and asked: "Speaking of Fang Cai, I asked you to hide, why didn't you come?" ”

"I ......," Xiling Yue began to explain again, "I thought your cabinet was the same as mine!" I thought it was too reluctant to hide two people, so I ......"

"And he thinks he is wise." Li Chengxuan judged in a deep voice.

"Fortunately, there is no danger!" Xiling Yue showed a hint of luck on her face, "By the way, you just hid here, did you hear the conversation outside?" ”

"I hear you." Li Chengxuan finally frowned, "The inside situation is complicated, let's go out first." ”

"Okay." Xiling Yue walked out of the golden secret room with him, and restored the cabinet to its original state.

The two of them returned the same way first, trying to climb up the ladder again, but there was no mechanism around the ramp, and the entrance was sealed from outside the second floor! The two of them had no choice but to walk under the wall on the north side of the secret room again, and Xi Lingyue pointed at it and said, "General Pei and Li Hui knocked on this wall a few times, and the door opened. ”

"Entering the second floor and exiting the first floor, this is the first time I have encountered a secret room that I can't return the way I came." Li Chengxuan was hiding in the golden secret room just now, so he naturally couldn't see the situation outside, and when he heard Xilingyue say it at this moment, he couldn't help but look at this stone wall.

From the outside, this wall is very ordinary, and even he is good at the art of bracketing, but the brick in the middle of the wall is slightly lighter, and the mechanism for the exit of the secret room should be here.

Li Chengxuan asked again: "How is the gesture of the two of them?" ”

Xilingyue was a little embarrassed, and roughly compared the drawings a few times: "I hid in the cabinet and couldn't see clearly." ”

Li Chengxuan frowned: "Is there a gesture that can be determined?" Even just one will do. ”

Xi Lingyue tried to recall, her fingers kept writing and drawing in mid-air, and finally hesitated: "I really can't remember, I just remember that they seemed to knock on this wall seven times." ”

Seven ...... This prompt is too broad, and Li Chengxuan doesn't have any clue. Xiling Yue also knew that he was too embarrassed, and asked with luck: "Why don't you wait for Master Bai to save us?" ”

"Nope." Li Chengxuan flatly refused, "Since he let Pei Xingli come in to spread the word, it can be seen that he has found a clue, and he can't interfere at this time, otherwise the hard work of this year will be ruined." ”

"That'...... Then wait for General Pei to come? Xiling Yue said again, thinking that Pei Xingli would not die without help.

However, Li Chengxuan resisted even more: "I don't want to sit still, besides, he is Li Qi's person." ”

Xiling Yue didn't know what to do, and leaned against the wall in frustration and spread her hands: "Then what should I do?" Li Chengxuan didn't give up, thought for a moment, and analyzed: "We fell in from the library on the second floor, most of which are under the study on the first floor. ”

This speculation seems to have some truth, and Xilingyue agrees.

Li Chengxuan continued to analyze: "To build a secret room, there must be an opening and closing mechanism, and usually craftsmen will build a secret grid to hide the mechanism, mostly behind the bookshelf, and some are embedded in the wall, looking for a calligraphy and painting to cover it. When the rebels were assassinated, you solved the case in your study, do you remember the pattern? Where can I hide the mechanism, and what are the tips? ”

"Hint?" Xilingyue was very embarrassed, "Haven't you been there too, Lord Wang?" What do you see or not? ”

Li Chengxuan recalled for a moment: "I remember that there are a few calligraphy on the wall, which seem to be the authentic handwriting of Yan Lugong, and there are ......"

"Preface to King Teng's Pavilion!" Xilingyue's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly answered, "I remembered!" There is not only a calligraphy of "Preface to King Teng's Pavilion" on the wall, but there is also a pair behind the Arhat couch, which is also from "Preface to King Teng's Pavilion"! Li Qi seems to have reversed the two sentences, the upper link is 'poor and strong, do not fall into the ambition of the clouds', and the lower link is 'old and strong, rather move the heart of the white head'. ”

Xiling Yue counted the words with her fingers while recalling, and said to herself: "No, there are more than seven words for this pair, and the "Preface to King Teng's Pavilion" has nothing to do with seven. She simply began to recite from the beginning, "Nanchang Ancient County, Hongdu New Mansion, the stars are divided into wings, and the ground is connected to Henglu." With three rivers and five lakes...... Hey? Three and five add up to eight! ”

However, it was this sentence that suddenly brought Li Chengxuan a hint of inspiration, he looked up at the wall again, and looked carefully, and could vaguely see that there were shallow fingerprints left in two places, which should be that this secret room was opened and closed too much, and the wall was worn and left traces.

He remembered what Fang Cai Xilingyue had said, Pei Xingli and Li Hui both tapped seven times, and the finger prints left on the wall seemed to have a certain direction. So he raised his hand and tried to strike seven times from right to left in a certain direction, and at each time he said, "Well, ghost, willow, star, zhang, wing, and zhen." ”

With a "buzz", the mechanism activated, and the wall tiles in the middle of the wall slowly retreated, opening an exit. Xiling Yue was overjoyed when she saw this: "Lord Wang, you are really a god!" ”

Li Chengxuan couldn't care about the defense of men and women anymore, took her hand and said, "Hurry up!" ”

The two walked out of the secret room, in front of them was a corridor full of steps, the two carefully climbed the steps, Xiling Yue asked as he walked, "How did the prince open the mechanism?" What is it that comes out of your mouth? ”

"It's the Seven Nights of the South." Li Chengxuan replied while observing the surroundings of the corridor, lest any more mechanisms appear.

"Seven Houses in the South?" The ancients divided the stars in the sky into twenty-eight constellations, seven constellations in the east, west, north and south, Xilingyue was not stupid, and guessed it at once, "'South' Changgu County, Hongdu Xinfu, the stars are divided into 'wings', and the ground is connected to Henglu?" She focused on a few words.
