The moon rose slowly, and finally lived up to its expectations and sprinkled a ray of light on the mirror, which reflected a ray of light that shone somewhere on the hill on the "eyebrows" that had originally blocked the moonlight.

"There it is!" Several people exclaimed, and got on a bamboo raft and headed for the hill.

Although there was some deviation in the location, they could not bear the crowd, and in less than half an hour, they found a hidden stone gate in the mountain wall, and there was also a groove in the stone door, which seemed to require a key to open it. Zhu Jinghong and Fan Mingen glanced at each other, and when they saw that the other party was also at a loss, they let down their guard. The yellow warbler took out a small stone and shone faintly in the moonlight. This is when she opens the underwater mechanism, and the original pendant is swallowed by the mechanism, but spits out a new one.

The yellow warbler put the stone in the groove and pressed it down like the bottom of the water, and with a bang, it was particularly loud at night. The stone door was opened, revealing a pitch-black corridor, and after several people looked at each other, they took out the torches that had been prepared long ago, lit them, and stood at the entrance of the cave for a while, and saw that everything was normal, and then walked towards the cave.

After entering, they looked at the stone door and found that there was a mechanism at the entrance of the cave and a groove that was the same as the outside. Fan Mingen turned the mechanism, the stone door slowly closed, the key spit out from the depression, Huang Ying put away the key, and several people continued to move forward.

The corridor is so narrow that only two people can pass side by side. Fan Mingen walked in the front, followed by Huang Ying and Zhu Jinghong, and Liu Zhuang was the queen of the palace. The corridor was long and pitch black, except for the torches in the hands of a few people, and each step forward was like stepping into the mouth of a giant beast. The trail keeps turning and going up and down, and walking in it completely loses its sense of direction.

After walking for about half an hour, the corridor became wider, and there was a lampstand on the walls on both sides at intervals of about three zhang, and the lampstand was lit one by one, and the corridor suddenly lit up, and several people breathed a sigh of relief.

It was Fan Mingen who walked in the front, and the other three walked side by side. Looking at the more and more spacious and bright corridor, Fan Mingen's expression was still heavy, a smile appeared at the corner of Zhu Jinghong's mouth, Liu Zhuang was relieved, but Huang Ying felt faintly uneasy, and always felt that something was wrong.

Suddenly, she understood, the road was too smooth and safe, not to say that the treasure was full of mechanisms, Fan Mingen still had a family heirloom mechanism map, but although he also saw him fiddling with a few inconspicuous stones or lampstands during the period, there was no danger at all, this calm made her feel uneasy, like the calm before the storm.

"Ming'en, let's go slower!"

"Huang Ying, what's wrong with you?" Zhu Jinghong was puzzled, he didn't want to dream a lot at night.

"I always feel that something is wrong, and it is better for us to be cautious."

"Huang Ying, you're too worried. Since this treasure was left by Emperor Taizu to future generations, there will not be too many mechanisms to put future generations and die. In such a secluded place, it is difficult to find even if there is a secret word, and no one else will come. Brother Wu, please hurry up, we'd better transport the treasure out before dawn to avoid further trouble. ”

Fan Mingen ignored the two, but still maintained his speed, and every time he passed a section, he would turn a lampstand, as if he was cracking a mechanism.

After going around and around for about a quarter of an hour, the road finally came to an end, and a stone door appeared in front of everyone. There are no grooves on the stone door, but a chessboard is carved, and some chess pieces are scattered on the chessboard, and several people stop.

Zhu Jinghong observed for a moment, stepped forward to move the chess pieces, and found that four of them were fixed, and the others could move along the line of the chessboard. He lined up the chess pieces into a red character, and the stone gate opened.

Inside is a small stone room, which can be seen clearly even if it is not lit, because there are dozens of night pearls on the wall. If you ignore the Night Pearl, at first glance it is just an ordinary stone room, with a stone bed, a stone table, a stone chair, a teapot and a teacup on the table, and a pot of flowers along the stone wall. It's just a bedroom.

Ran walked in and took a closer look, the teapot and teacup on the stone table were made of the best jade, and the stone bed was not an ordinary bedding, but a golden jade robe, and there were two boxes at the head of the bed, Zhu Jinghong stepped forward, one box was full of jewelry, and the other was full of gold. Look at it again, the flowers are also carved from beautiful jade, and every item here is priceless.

"Zhu Gongzi, I will return to Zhao after completion, my mission of Shuiyue Villa has also been completed, the old man will retire with his little daughter, and the son will take his convenience." Liu Zhuang said that he wanted to leave.

Zhu Jinghong's eyes flickered for a moment, and he regained his composure: "Where is the owner of Liu, I will ask the owner of the village to help transport the treasure out, and I also ask the owner not to shirk." In addition, the Liu family has guarded the treasure for more than 500 years, and they have worked hard, and we will distribute it again when we return to Shuiyue Villa. ”

"The wealth rewarded by Emperor Taizu is enough to live in Shuiyue Villa, and he doesn't dare to accept anything else. If Zhu Gongzi can trust the old man to deliver it, the old man is duty-bound. ”

"Good! We first moved the treasure to the entrance of the cave, and then troubled the owner to dispatch the ship, and we transported the treasure directly to the Lost Forest. ”

Huang Ying gave the key to Zhu Jinghong: "It is also very troublesome to transport the treasure out of the maze forest, but we can first move the treasure to the entrance of the cave, and then prepare the vehicle in the maze forest, and then send a boat to transport the treasure directly to the maze forest, and then the vehicle will directly transport it out." ”

Zhu Jinghong took the key without hesitation: "Huang Ying is reasonable. I don't think the treasure needs to be moved first, and it is safest to put it here. When I go to the outside world and find a place or a buyer, it's not too late to come back and pick it up. Master Liu, I have to bother you to help Jinghong stay for a few more days. ”

After thinking about it, this was indeed the best way, and they agreed. Just after taking a few steps, Fan Mingen said again: "Zhu Gongzi, you can take a pot of jade flowers or a night pearl first, this is relatively small, easy to carry, and it is also convenient for you to negotiate the price with the buyer." ”

Zhu Jinghong nodded, walked towards a night pearl, and stretched out his hand. At that moment, Fan Mingen picked up the yellow warbler and ran out. At the same time, when Zhu Jinghong took down the Night Pearl, rows of openings appeared around the stone wall, and thousands of arrows were fired at once. Seeing that the situation was not good, Master Liu Zhuang rushed to Zhu Jinghong's side to help him swing away the feather arrow and wanted to rescue him, but the two were about to rush out, but they saw the stone gate slam shut.

In normal times, the two of them would have had time to rush out before the stone gate closed, but because they still had to dodge the feather arrows that were shot, they could only watch the stone gate close. The feathered arrows stopped firing, but they were trapped here, and within three days, they would be reduced to two corpses.

"Brother Wu, Huang Ying, you guys quickly think of a way to open the door!" Zhu Jinghong shouted, but he could only hear his own echo, and he couldn't transmit it at all. He put the Night Pearl back in its place, knocked on the stone wall again, and scolded, "Fan Mingen, you dog thief, your Wu family is really born to be rebellious!" ”

"Zhu Gongzi, please calm your anger, I believe that Huang Ying will definitely come to save us." Master Liu Zhuang was relatively calm, "Before that, we can find a way to save ourselves." ”

Zhu Jinghong calmed down and figured out that if he was in a state of excitement, he would only die faster, so he and Liu Zhuang slowly looked for a way to crack the mechanism.

"Dad, Jinghong!" Huang Ying ran to fight the chess pieces in a hurry, but after the puzzle was completed, the stone gate did not move at all, and it was still not moving.

"It's useless, Huang Ying." Fan Mingen said lightly.

"Fan Mingen, you did it on purpose! What do you want, for the sake of the common people in the world, we have promised to put aside our grievances and no longer pursue you, why do you want to hurt others! ”

"Huang Ying, listen to my explanation!"

"It's me who is so stupid, how can I believe you." Huang Ying said in despair, and then her expression became hideous, "But Fan Mingen, if I can't save my father, you don't want to get out alive!" ”

"Huang Ying, you can kill me, you can die in your hands, I will die without regrets. But even if I die, I will protect you and not let you be bullied. ”

"At this time, you still have to lie to me by saying these nonsense, aren't you the one who bullies me the most?" Huang Ying's eye sockets became moist, and with one blow after another, no matter how strong a person was, he would become vulnerable.

Fan Mingen still said patiently: "Huang Ying, you listen to my explanation......"

"Ming'en, I beg you to save them!" Huang Ying didn't give him a chance to speak.

"Huang Ying, if I save them, I will be the one who will die. Not only me, but even you and Lord Liu Zhuang will not escape death. That Zhu Jinghong is not a good person, the moment I saw the treasure, I saw with my own eyes that he had a murderous intention against Lord Liu. If it weren't for the owner of the village who was unwilling to touch Zhao after saying that, he might have made a move. You know, he's got a gun! Now he needs the power of Water Moon Villa to transport the treasure, and when he takes possession of the treasure, he can do whatever he wants, and it will be you who will suffer at that time! ”

"Even if you doubt Jinghong, what about Dad? Why do you want to hurt your father, that's my father! Mingen, I know that your nature is not bad, otherwise you could have let the three of us die in it together, so that the treasure is yours alone. But you chose to save me, even if I might kill you for it. ”

"Huang Ying, I said, I won't hurt you, and I don't want to hurt your family anymore." Fan Mingen said affectionately, "It's just that I didn't expect the owner of the village to save him, the owner of the village stood with us at that time, and with his martial arts, he could rush out." But now that this is the case, I can only be ruthless, otherwise I will die. ”

"Ming'en, I have always understood your heart for me, but that is my father! I don't care if the cuckoo's dead father agrees to write it off, and I don't care if the magpie dies for you voluntarily, but you don't even let go of my last relative, how do you tell me to face you in the future? Minn, I know you can crack the mechanism, you save them. I promise you that if they go against you, I will defend you to the death. If you can't protect me, I'll die with you!" ”

Fan chose to remain silent.

Huang Ying stepped forward and threw herself into his arms, hugged him tightly, and cried: "Ming'en, I beg you, I beg you." ”

Fan Mingen grabbed her shoulders, looked into her eyes and said seriously: "Huang Ying, I believe you, but I can't trust them." I don't want to die yet, I don't want to die at the hands of anyone but you. ”

"Then tell me, what will you do to save them?"

"You send me away, and when I get to the Lost Forest, I'll tell you how to crack the mechanism, and you can save them."

"Okay, that's a deal."

"Aren't you afraid that I will regret it?"

"If you want to harm me, just let me die inside. I believe in you. ”

A bamboo raft sailed out of Meishan, stayed at Shuiyue Mountain Villa for a while, and then continued to move forward, stopping at the edge of Jinghu Lake, next to the lost forest.

Fan Mingen jumped off the bamboo raft and told again: "Huang Ying, you have to remember that those jade flowers and night pearls, as well as the tea set on the table, must not be touched, otherwise it will touch the mechanism." Especially the tea set, if it moves, it will emit a poisonous mist, and the gods will not be able to save it. You can only take the two boxes of jewels and the golden jade garment, and the jewels should be packed in bags, and do not take the boxes out. Also, be careful of Zhu Jinghong, this person is not as good as you think, I have traveled around since I was a child, and I have seen too many people, you have to believe me. ”

Huang Ying nodded.

"Huang Ying, what are your plans after taking out the treasure? If you want, I can wait for you with the magpie. ”

Huang Ying shook her head: "Mingen, between us, it's impossible." You, live well and take care of the magpies. ”
