Chapter 166: The Sleeping Prince
After a while, Tong Xi came back to his senses and looked angrily at the direction where Xiaotian disappeared, "This Xiaotian usually looks quite bold, but why did he become a shrinking turtle at a critical moment?" It's really infuriating to watch! β
"That's it!" I stopped Tong Xi's scolding, "Doesn't his attitude show that Prince Zheng is in the Netherworld?" Let's go and find it, if we can save it, we will save it, but we must act secretly, Tong Xi, you are familiar with the terrain of the Netherworld, and you also know the guards of the Netherworld, you lead them away, we have to sneak in, so that even if the Netherworld King suspects it afterwards, he will not be able to suspect me. β
Shadow hesitated, "Bug, wouldn't it be risky for you to do this, let's explain to Heng first before making plans!" β
I waved my hand, "Even if we explain to Heng that we still want to come back to save his brother, he is now forbidden to return to the Netherworld by the Nether King, do you think he will help us rob the prison?" Besides, he didn't dare to rob the prison with such a strong strength, which shows that the Netherworld King still has some means, I went in this time mainly to explore the situation, as the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing the other side will win all battles, understand the situation of the little prince, we can formulate a strategy, right? When the time comes, you will have a bargaining chip when you negotiate with Heng! β
Shadow was stunned by what I said, so he had to compromise, "Okay, I'll just say that you have ten sentences back to you, I can't say you, just do what you say, anyway, I'm sacrificing my life to accompany the gentleman...... No, it's sacrificing my life to accompany my wife~"
"That proves that I have a pointβ" I said unashamedly, leading the sneaky way towards the inner sanctum of the Nether Temple.
Now that the war is being prepared, there is a large group of men and horses outside the Netherworld Temple, and the defenses inside are not very strict, Tong Xi wandered forward and talked to a few guards, successfully diverting their attention, and the Shadow and I took the opportunity to sneak into the Netherworld Temple. I've been here a few times, but each time I've been taken straight to the Nether's reception room. I hadn't been to the other places once, but the building was basically symmetrical, with a hall at the entrance, a corridor on each side leading in different directions, and the Nether's parlor on the left, where people often came and went. If only I hadn't kept a secret hostage there.
According to Tong Xi, the Nether's bedroom is on the right, which is a good place to keep people. I don't know why when I think of the bedroom, hostages, and secret detention, the words 'Jinwu Zangjiao' instantly flashed in my mind, quack, if that prince is a guy who looks like a woman, it would be more appropriate, looking at Heng's appearance, this situation is very likely, could it be that the prince is the forbidden descendant of the Netherworld? Roar. I'm so evil~
"What's the matter, which way are you going?" Seeing the strange look on my face, the shadow stood behind this door, and couldn't help but remind me: "The patrol soldiers will come here soon, you should go!" β
"Huh?! Oh, I guess if he locks people up, it must be on the right, just like in the movie, building a secret room in the bedroom and secretly keeping important hostages inside. Well, I'm very good at reasoning! I said with some pride,
ββ¦β¦ Strong! Let's go to the Nether King's bedroom! β
The two of us lurked at the bottom of the hallway, ducking past the sloppy guards and arriving at another enclosed palace. There were a lot of rooms in the area, and I guessed with the Shadow for a long time, and finally determined that the door with the golden strokes was the bedroom of the Nether. There were only two teams of soldiers patrolling the hallway, and I guess it took us less than two seconds to enter the room with their backs to us.
I looked at the shadow: "Your speed is not so fast, I go in and you are outside to control the wind, if someone wants to enter this room to notify you, if I am found out, you will go out to meet Tong Xi to find a way, don't talk nonsense, that's it!" "I didn't wait for the Shadow to refute me, and I took advantage of the short gap to float in front of the door like a puff of smoke, pushed the door in, and closed it. The whole process is only one and a half seconds, it is really smooth and smooth in one go, applause!
I entered the room and immediately flashed into a shadow, and observed the whole room, which was magnificent, probably referring to the decoration of the bedrooms of European royalty, and at this moment the huge windows were half covered by curtains, and the underworld was already very dark, so that the room was almost dark. There was no one inside, and after I made sure there weren't any mechanisms, I began my lost search.
When I look at that vase suspiciously, I go around, when I look at that wall lamp that is suspicious, I go to Lala, and when I look at that bookshelf that is suspicious, I go to push it...... Anyway, everything in it has been touched by me, but there is no secret room as I imagined, which is really strange, is there a mistake in my reasoning? That prince wasn't in this room at all?
With deep suspicion, I lay down on the big bed, and with a bang, the soft mattress actually came to the bottom of the sky, and no matter how fast I reacted, I just grabbed the bed board and didn't fall down. Sure enough, there is a secret room, I got used to the darkness and looked down, two or three meters away from me is the ground, tried to pull back the bed board, to no avail, it seems that this mechanism is to catch a thief like me, there is really no entry and exit, and the ground below is likely to have a mechanism.
Thinking about it, I threw a piece of iron ore down, and sure enough, as the ore landed, dozens of spikes appeared from the ground, if it was me who went down just now, it would have become a spider string burning~ Aiming at the ground in the distance, I kicked the wall with both feet and flew out flat, and after landing steadily on the ground, I took out a long piece of wood from the bracelet, anyway, I now have a storage bracelet, and there are a lot of messy things on my body, and this very valuable wood is also used by me as a guide to explore the way at this time.
After passing this road, I admire the designer, just four hundred meters, he designed all kinds of hidden weapons, for fear that others don't know that there are these harmful things in Chinese history, if it weren't for the great life of this worm, I don't know how many times I died, but fortunately, I finally got to the ground, pushed open a door in front of me, and a miniature palace appeared in front of my eyes.
As I expected, a young man was inside, but I couldn't take him because the guy was sleeping. I walked up to him and looked at his face similar to Heng, and couldn't help but feel lustful, a sleeping prince, do you want me to kiss him, and he will wake up......
After pondering for a long time, I still gave up this very tempting plan, and my shadow husband was still waiting for me outside, I couldn't play any red apricot out of the wall, thinking about it, I rudely pushed him: "Hey, wake up!" "No response......
So I kicked him, but he didn't respond......
I practiced a set of worm fists on him, but there was still no response......
I really can't help it, you can't let me kill him with a ghost to kill him twice, I can't bear to do such a beautiful boy, I'm a kind little angel. But how can I get him out of his sleep?
While I was thinking, a message from the Shadow came, "Bug, the Nether King is now at the other end of the hallway, it looks like he wants to go back to his room to rest, you should come out quickly, or it will be over!" β
"Huh?!" I was shocked, I didn't have to worry if I was still outside, but now that I'm in the secret room, and I don't know how to get out, if the Nether King comes back, I'm sure I'll find that someone has moved the mechanism, and then come in and take a look...... I'm done with it, no!
"Shadow, you immediately inform Tong Xi outside and ask him to get the Nether King away no matter what, otherwise I will be arrested!" I said anxiously, "I'm trapped in the secret room now, I haven't found a way to get out yet, you can delay as long as you can, by the way, just say I'm missing, you can't find me, and then I'll have a reason to excuse myself when I appear!" β
"Got it, I'll do my best!"
Cut off the communication, I didn't have time to pay attention to the unconscious prince, and began to look around for a way out, it is unlikely that I would return the same way, I guess the mechanism is outside, and now I have to think of a way from other aspects. It's a basement, but I didn't feel stuffy when I came in, the air was fresh, it meant that there was a ventilation system, that is, ventilation holes and something, I wasn't good at testing the wind direction, so I called Bai Ze out.
Bai Ze came out and was taken aback: "Boss, whose basement did you run to?" β
"The basement of the Nether King's house!" I replied angrily, "Don't look around, hurry up and find out where the vents are, we have to find a way to get out!" β
"Why are you looking for vents? Just get out where you came in! Bai Ze looked at me suspiciously.
I kicked him in the ass, "You little white, if I can get out of the place I came in, will I ask you to find a vent?" Without further ado, find it for me!! β
"Just look for it, what are you doing so fiercely......" Bai Ze whispered his defense, while frowning his nose to find the direction of the source of the air, and after a minute he pointed to a place on the top, "That is the source of the air, it seems that outside this ceiling is the ground." β
"Well done!" I jumped on the ceiling, like a gecko on the top of the decoration, gently removed the movable perforated ceiling, revealing a mezzanine about half a meter high, gently flipped up to check, sure enough, the left is a vent, if you look at it from the outside, this vent is an ordinary exhaust pipe, I look out from the gap, the outside is the innermost part of the inner hall, here is heavily guarded, even if you go out from here, you can't get out of the netherworld, but I only have this one choice at this time.
