Chapter 4 The Situation Outside the Plug Section 15 The Secret Room
After leaving the shop in Lima, there are still Wu Hao's shop, the residence of the treasury management official, and the last of the Nine Heavens Lock Tower.
Although Wu Hao was not in his shop, why not still decide to go to his shop with Chen Xi.
Walking to the front of Wu Hao's shop, to his delight, Wu Hao happened to be back.
"Where have you been all this time?" Why don't you get straight to the point this time?
"It's Yuli City next to Huadu, this is the receipt for the villain to customize the lock for someone, please see it."
The receipt is written that the wall is locked, fifty taels of silver, which is a coincidence, and the wall is the same as the lock for nine days.
"How does your lock compare to Nine Heavens? Are there any commonalities? ”
"This lock is really small compared to the Nine Heavens, but it does have something to do."
"So, you still know a little bit about the Nine Heavens Lock Tower?"
"Nine days lock, with the tower as the body, five feet high, the next is a square rectangle, the thickest part of the lock wall is one zhang, the thinnest place is more than two feet. The inner lock contains three outer locks, three inner locks, the destruction of the outer lock will not damage the inner lock, and any of the three keys missing can not open its lock body, as for the internal structure, I can't say it one by one. ”
Why don't you listen to these words at the same time, Wu Hao, who is still observing, Wu Hao's disability is not very obvious and does not affect his life, but he is missing a little finger.
"In your tone, you seem to be able to open this lock?" Seeing Wu Hao so elated, Chen Xi had some doubts in his heart for a while.
Wu Hao didn't shirk it, patted his chest and said: "I couldn't open this lock before, but this year, if I just bring the lock cylinder to open it, I will definitely be able to open it!" Master, the old man has long thought that as long as it can be opened by the key, and there is no rust inside the lock, then there will always be someone who can open the lock without the key, so he uses the mountain stone as the lock body, and now no one can really open it. ”
"Do you have a nine-day drawing?" Why don't you want to see how subtle this lock really is?
"Yes, I'll go find it for the adults."
Why not wait with Chen Xi for a while, but Wu Hao suddenly ran back with a pale face.
"The blueprint of the Nine Heavens Lock is gone!"
Walking on the way to the residence of the treasury management official, Chen Xi couldn't help but guess.
"In the days when the galaxy was stolen, Wu Hao happened to be not in Huadu, Wu Hao came back, and it happened that his Nine Heavens Lock blueprint was also lost, which is difficult for Wu Hao not to doubt."
"Everyone is the same suspicious, we don't have to suspect Wu Hao first, in short, let's go to Lord Wang Yu's mansion first."
It's just that after going to Wang Yu's mansion, why don't you know what dereliction of duty is.
Whether it was asking Wang Yu when he counted and found that the key was lost, or asking him about the personnel entry and exit records, he just threw over a book.
Said lazily: "These are all recorded by the officials on duty, and I don't know anything else." ”
Unfortunately, some people are able-bodied, and they are really not as good as some disabled people.
"Then let's go to the Nine Heavens Lock Tower, but why did you go to the scene of the crime at the end?"
Why don't you smile slightly, "Why is my stupid hunt also deceived by me?" In fact, after I received this case, I took the handwritten letter and went to investigate it alone overnight. ”
Why don't you look proud, Chen Xi really wants to slap him to death.
"But although I've been there a few times, let's go again this time, maybe there's something missing?"
The galaxy has been stolen, and there is no point in locking the Nine Heavens Lock Tower again, and the Emperor of the Lan Kingdom has not let people lock it again.
This is convenient why not enter the investigation of the case, but at the same time, it undoubtedly increases the difficulty of handling the case, even if the thief left any clues in a hurry, now he can sneak back to destroy the clues.
Before, why not enter the Nine Heavens Lock Tower at night, but after entering during the day this time, there is no difference.
Because the Nine Heavens Lock Tower has only one gate, it is more like a tomb on the ground than a lock.
Entering the Nine Heavens Lock, Chen Xi only felt that the temperature around him seemed to be a little lower, and a slight cough and a long and narrow passage would echo for a long time.
The lock had only a long and narrow passage, and at the end of the passage was a small domed hall, with torches in the hall and beside the passage, and there was nothing in the hall except a one-man high wooden platform with a Buddhist shrine on it.
"It's a shame that you dare to come to this place several times, and even if you accompany me now, I still have the urge to escape now."
The closure and depression of this place made Chen Xi want to hug him all the time, why not push it twice, and if she couldn't push it away, she could only let her.
As he was walking around the hall, why not suddenly ask, "Have you washed your hair recently?" ”
Echoes echoed through the nine heavens, and under the flickering firelight, everything seemed extremely terrifying.
"What is this for, you ask? I just washed it yesterday. Chen Xi was asked why not, and suddenly felt that the atmosphere around him became even more weird.
"It's okay, I just smell a scent, I guess you're just washing your hair, let's go."
As he spoke, he bent down again as if he was casually polishing his shoes, and then walked out with Chen Xi.
