Chapter 233: Entering the palace at night

The corpses in the cave were highly decomposed, emitting a strong stench.

Luo Xiaofeng closed his eyes, and tears slid down the corners of his eyes again. Although he didn't know these people, judging from the way he dressed, he could vaguely see that these people were all members of the Luo Wangfu. Luo Xiaofeng carefully moved the dozens of corpses together, and then he took off his coat and gently covered it. This coat was given to him by Uncle Nine, and he wants to keep it here forever now. This is his homage to the dead!

At the end of this passage there was an open wall, and inside the wall was a temple. The temple covers an area of about half an acre. The huge temple was empty and empty. There was a pile of black ashes in the temple hall with a wisp of black veil on the ashes.

Luo Xiaofeng suddenly walked over, slowly bent down, and gently picked up the wisp of black yarn. For some reason, he had a strong interest in this strand of black yarn, as if he had seen it a long, long time ago. Why this happened, even Luo Xiaofeng himself couldn't say clearly.

Before her death, Grandma told Luo Xiaofeng that the Rubik's Cube Ball was in the basement of the palace! This was the only basement that Luo Xiaofeng found in the Luo Palace. But here, there is no shadow of the Rubik's Cube ball.

If the Rubik's Cube Ball is really an artifact, then it will be more difficult to find it. Because the artifact itself has a hidden ability, if it really wants to hide itself deliberately, then it will be difficult for ordinary martial arts cultivators to find it. Only when martial arts cultivation reaches the realm of gods can it be difficult to feel its existence. Luo Xiaofeng came this time to try his luck. Because he knew that although artifacts had hidden functions, they couldn't be hidden all the time. Hiding is energy-intensive.

Luo Xiaofeng searched in the basement, he searched very carefully, every corner was searched, even the thick dust on the ground, he carefully checked. No, no, still no! In such a close search, he didn't even see the shadow of the Rubik's Cube Ball, and he didn't even notice the slightest breath of the Rubik's Cube Ball. Could it be that Grandma is mistaken, the Rubik's Cube Ball is not in the basement of the Luo Wang's Mansion, or is there more than one in the basement of the Luo Wang's Mansion? Or has the Rubik's Cube Ball been taken away?

Luo Xiaofeng sat down and sat on the dusty ground. If the Rubik's Cube Ball is invisible at this time, as long as he doesn't leave, he will definitely be able to wait for the moment when the Rubik's Cube Ball appears. Although the artifact can be invisible, this stealth state cannot be maintained for long, generally not more than three days.

The strong rancid smell in the basement pierced Luo Xiaofeng's nostrils. Luo Xiaofeng didn't care, he sat quietly on the ground, closed his eyes, and sat down like an old monk. There were some questions that he couldn't figure out. Father Luo Yucheng, as the commander of the first army, why was he so careless and lost the Rubik's Cube Ball? The Rubik's Cube Ball is a heavy treasure in the army, and it must be kept in a very secret place, guarded by a special person, what kind of person has such a great ability to steal the Rubik's Cube Ball without knowing it? There is another question, which makes Luo Xiaofeng puzzled the most: Since grandma knew that the Rubik's Cube Ball was hidden in the basement of the palace, why didn't she tell her father Luo Yucheng? You must know that Luo Yucheng lost the Rubik's Cube Ball and was in a very embarrassing situation, not only was the 50,000 Rubik's Cube Army no longer majestic, but even his official title of general of the town was deprived, and he was finally forced to step down from the throne and "return to his hometown"! Does grandma know that even if she tells her father the whereabouts of the Rubik's Cube Ball, it will be useless and she will not be able to save the situation? Could it be ...... Could it be that the Rubik's Cube Ball hidden in the basement has already lost its magic power? At that time, his mother, the wisteria god Ah Zi, was sealed in this basement. Mother suffered a catastrophe, and the Rubik's Cube lost its power. Could it be that this Rubik's Cube Ball is not an ordinary artifact, but the mother's divine core? Legend has it that all cultivators in the Divine Spirit Realm not only have primordial gods, but also divine cores. The original god cannot be destroyed, and once the original god is destroyed, it will never be destroyed, not only will the cultivation be lost, but even the life will be difficult to preserve. The Divine Core can leave the physical body, and its power is almost the same as itself. It's just a legend, no one has seen it with their own eyes. Could it be that the Rubik's Cube Ball is the divine core of the Mother Wisteria God?

Luo Xiaofeng was sad for a while, and his tears had wet his clothes at some point. He sat quietly on the ground, feeling his mother's breath. Although he has never seen his mother since he was a child, the deep affection of flesh and blood thicker than water has always haunted his heart.

Three full days have passed, and Luo Xiaofeng has not yet discovered the Rubik's Cube Ball! He knows that if he waits any longer, it will be useless! He has found this place, and there are still many opportunities in the future.

After leaving King Luo's Mansion, Luo Xiaofeng still had an important thing to do, although he knew that it was difficult for him to do it, he must try.

On this night, there are no stars and no moon. The sky was dark and dreary, as if a huge black cauldron was clasped on the vast earth. In the palace of Zhao Jingcheng, the lights are bright. The gates of the palace were closed, and on the gatehouse, there were groups of guards patrolling back and forth.

Luo Xiaofeng hid in the dark under the gatehouse. He's looking for an opportunity. It's a pity that there are too many people here, and he has been waiting for a long time and has no chance. There was no choice but to walk to the right along the gatehouse. On the gatehouse, the lanterns and torches are as bright as day. As soon as he walked a few steps, Luo Xiaofeng was discovered by the guards on the gatehouse.

"Who, what?"

Luo Xiaofeng didn't run, he raised his head lazily, revealing a small face full of dirt.

Seeing that it was a child with dirt, unkempt hair, and ragged clothes, the little leader of the guards treated Luo Xiaofeng as a wandering little beggar, and shouted: "Get out of the way, this is not the place for you to sleep!"

Luo Xiaofeng raised his face and smirked: "Don't you have money to buy cakes to eat, you can take this gold ingot." As he spoke, he took a paper bag from his bosom and laughed and threw it up the gatehouse.

There was a commotion among the guards on the gatehouse. Someone rushed to open the paper bag, and what kind of gold ingots were in the oily paper bag, which were clearly two hard and moldy black steamed buns. The little leader of the guard spat at the ground: "Bad luck, Lao Tzu wants to shoot him with an arrow!" He really opened his bow and arrows to shoot Luo Xiaofeng. But when he looked downstairs, the little smirking Hanako had disappeared without a trace.

This guy scolded secretly: "Hell, a little named Hanako is running so fast!"

At this time, Luo Xiaofeng had successfully entered the palace. The palace is also heavily guarded, with five steps and one post, and ten steps and one sentry. Thankfully, it's night, and there's a place for invisibility.

Luo Xiaofeng hid behind a rockery and observed the surrounding situation. Although it was night, the magnificence of the palace still startled Luo Xiaofeng, who had lived in the deep mountains and old forests for a long time. With the bright fires that can be seen everywhere, Luo Xiaofeng is guessing the residence of the emperor of the Great Zhao Empire.
