Chapter 116: The Guardian of the Treasure Vault
"In that case, let's go to the treasure vault now!" Woz jumped out of his seat and walked in front of Mu Cheng. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Pushing the door open, Xia walked out of the room without saying a word, but Mu Cheng stayed at the door, until Woz walked in front of him, Mu Cheng whispered: "The photo crystal left by my grandfather, I don't know if Dean Woz has watched it before." ”
Hearing this, Woz raised his head slightly, looked at Mu Cheng's skeptical eyes, and gave Mu Cheng a negative answer without hesitation.
Staring at the other party's non-fake look, Mu Cheng nodded, raised his feet and walked out along the door, and Woz also left the office after taking a deep look at Mu Cheng's back.
Before coming to the treasure house, Mu Cheng couldn't help but stop, looking at the yellowed and dilapidated thatched hut not far away, and couldn't help but feel a trace of residual thoughts in his heart.
Nima, it's a thatched house again, it's a thatched house when the entrance exam is, and it's still a thatched house, isn't it that Watts has a soft spot for thatched houses?
"Is this the Academy's treasure trove?" Thea looked at Wox in front of her, and a cold voice came out of her mouth.
"Hmm!"
In response to Thea, Woz walked to the door of the thatched hut, knocked on the door three times in a row, and then an old withered palm pushed the door open from the inside, and then from behind the door came an old man with gray hair and a thick beard under his chin, the old man looked about seventy or eighty years old, his eyes were deep, and his gray robe made people feel unfathomable at a glance.
"Are these two of the new Inner Courtyard students this year?" Staring closely at the two behind Woz, hoarse words came out of the old man's mouth.
"That's right, these two children are the new inner courtyard students this year." As he spoke, he introduced the names of Mu Cheng and the others to the old man respectively.
After listening to Wads's words, the old man first glanced meaningfully at Xia on the side, and then looked at Mu Cheng, "If I'm not mistaken, this little friend named Mu Cheng is Hyde's grandson, right?" ”
"Do you know my grandfather?" Mu Cheng wondered.
"Of course, your grandfather used to be my senior." The old man first laughed heartily, then showed a look of pity, shook his head and said again: "It's a pity that Hyde has now suffered an injustice because of me. ”
"Ressa, that's not your fault."
Interrupting the old man's self-pity, Woz said to Mu Cheng and the others, "Okay, you two come in with me first!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Woz walked straight into the treasure house. And although Mu Cheng wanted to know why the old man said that it was his fault that his grandfather had been wronged, he saw that Woz had entered the treasure house, and he didn't want to ask too much, so he had to speed up his pace to keep up with Woz's back as he left.
After entering the treasure house, the interior was not as brilliant as Mu Cheng imagined, but it was pitch black, which made Mu Cheng feel a little excited in his heart and a trace of timidity at the same time.
But as Mu Cheng gradually deepened, a bright yellow light appeared in front of Mu Cheng, and after walking quickly towards the light, he saw rows of candlelight distributed on the walls on both sides, and Wox was standing under the candlelight at the beginning at this time, quietly waiting for Mu Cheng and Xia to arrive.
After seeing the figures of Mu Cheng and Xia Ya, Woz spoke: "After this, it is the secret vault of the academy, which is divided into three layers, and you can choose any item in the first layer later." ”
"I don't know what the difference is between these three layers?" Although he could only select treasures on the first floor, driven by curiosity, Mu Cheng still spoke out his inner doubts.
"According to the order, the treasures of the first-layer treasure house are the second, and the treasures of the third-layer treasure house are the best, of course, there is a special situation, that is, you can't judge what level of treasures are also placed on the first floor, so whether you can get good treasures depends on your fate with the treasure."
After nodding in understanding, Mu Cheng stepped forward and walked into the treasure house illuminated by the faint candlelight.
When Mu Cheng walked into the treasure house, Woz turned his head to look at Thea, who had not entered with him.
"I know the purpose of your visit this time, so the thing you want has been placed on the first layer, so it depends on your own fate if you want to get it."
"Thank you" After thanking Woz, Xia also followed Mu Cheng's figure into the first floor of the treasure house.
And when he saw that Mu Cheng and the others had already entered the treasure house, the old man who had opened the door for a few people before came out of the shadows. "Why didn't you let me tell Hyde's grandson the truth about the matter before."
"Because I don't blame you for that incident, if it were you, I think I would have made the same decision as you."
"But I did it after all, and I think that little fellow, as Hyde's grandson, needs to know about it."
With a faint sigh, Woz said again to Ressa, who was his friend and elder, "That's just your profession as a guardian of the vault, and it's your responsibility to hand over the photo crystal stolen by Teacher Hyde, not only me, but even Teacher Hyde has never blamed you for this." ”
"......"
Placing his palm on Ressa's shoulder, Woz shook his head: "If you really feel guilty, don't think too much about it, protecting the vault is the best reward." ”
"Hey!"
Sighing, Resa didn't say anything more, slowly retreating away from the candlelight, and disappeared into the shadows again.
Looking at Resa's disappearing figure, Woz's expression darkened slightly, and he whispered in a voice that only he could hear: "You are the last person I want to be a traitor, so don't let me down!" ”
With that, Woz took a step and walked into the first floor of the vault.
At this time, Mu Cheng, who didn't know anything, was looking at the dazzling array of treasures in front of him and didn't know what to choose.
Although there is still no splendid decoration, the columns of treasures still dazzle Mu Cheng.
Four rows of shelves displayed four categories of treasures, one of which was full of white jade bottles of pills, and even the extremely rare Beast Pill was also on it. The remaining three columns are weapons, armor, and props.
Of course, in addition to these four columns of treasures, there is also a pile of very inconspicuous items piled up in one corner of the treasure house. However, it is inconspicuous, and it is only because the pile of items is placed in a disorderly manner, and many of the items look rusty, so it is not at all conspicuous against the backdrop of the four columns of treasures.
Just when Mu Cheng wanted to choose the treasure, a series of footsteps sounded, and then a shadow appeared next to Mu Cheng, but it was Xia who came in after him, only to see that after Xia came in, she did not linger on the four columns of treasures, but went straight to the inconspicuous pile of sundries. It was as if that pile of clutter was the real purpose of her trip. (To be continued.) )
