Chapter 236: Avoiding Danger in the Secret Passage
The two walked between the stone slabs, Mu Yunyi counted silently all the way, and finally stopped next to an inconspicuous small stone mound in the middle.
Looking around, no one had arrived, Mu Yunyi squatted down and picked up a large stone slab, Mo Yan had the eyesight to help her lift the slate.
The stone slab was really loose, and when he moved a gap, Mo Yan found that there was a slope underneath, so he tried more and more to move a width large enough to enter one person.
"Hide in." Mu Yunyi said to Mo Yan beside him, and jumped down quickly, and Mo Yan also followed, and after entering the dark passage, he moved the stone slab on the top back to its original position.
The two of them didn't take a few steps along the slope of the dark passage to a small flat space, and before Mo Yan could speak, the two heard the footsteps above getting closer and closer, so they both held their breath.
"It's strange, I just saw the two of them running this way."
"yes, why is it gone in a blink of an eye?"
"Have you searched it all over there?"
"We came from the east gate, and we didn't see any trace of them all the way!"
"I don't believe it, two big living people can still disappear out of thin air, continue to search!"
"Yes, sir!"
A series of footsteps faded away from Mu Yunyi and Mo Yan's heads, until they couldn't hear them at all, and the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"You can ask now." Mu Yunyi spoke.
"Here it is...... The secret room left by Emperor Wanxian? "After Mo Yan came down, he already had some guesses about where this place was, the space here is not large but it was obviously specially dug by people, and this was originally the imperial tomb of Emperor Wanxian, so the most likely person to build this small secret room is Emperor Wanxian.
"Yes, this is left by the emperor's grandfather, but it is not a secret room, but a part of the underground palace."
"The dungeon?"
"Grandfather Huang built a dungeon for himself a long time ago, and just in case, he secretly built a corridor, and blocked it with the Qimen Bagua Formation, it is difficult for ordinary people to discover the existence of this secret passage, let alone unlock it, and where we are standing now is the door that the secret passage finally leads to the outside world."
"So only you know here." Mo Yan immediately knew that this secret passage should have been specially built by Emperor Wan Xian to leave it for the person he was most at ease with, and as Emperor Wan Xian's most beloved granddaughter, Mu Yunyi knew that this place was justified.
Mu Yunyi finally understood the reason why when he was very young, the emperor's grandfather took the trouble to ask him to carefully write down the drawings of the underground palace, all in order to be able to save his life one day.
"Yes, but not all, not only me, but the imperial grandmother naturally knows."
Mo Yan almost forgot that he had heard that Emperor Wanxian and his wife had a deep relationship with the queen of the main palace, and as the other half of the master of this underground palace, the empress dowager naturally knew it, but now the empress dowager has also been sleeping in the underground palace.
Mu Yunyi reached out to touch the south wall, and sure enough, he touched a stone door, "This stone door is the last pass of the secret passage of the underground palace." Unexpectedly, Mo Yan also happened to be touching this door at this time, and the hands of the two were caught off guard, and at the moment of touching, Mu Yunyi reflexively retracted.
After the stone slab above was covered, there was almost no light below, and Mu Yunyi was lucky in his heart, so he couldn't see the embarrassment on his face.
Mo Yan laughed to himself.
"What are you laughing at!" Mu Yunyi didn't know why, when facing Mo Yan, she would always feel a little annoyed for no reason.
Mo Yan still smiled: "I don't know when my hand became poison ivy?" ”
"What, what?"
"If it weren't for the quenching poison, how could you react so much as soon as you touched it?"
"You ......" Mu Yunyi was not to be outdone, and fought back: "Who knows if you have applied some poison and want to murder me." ”
"Okay, Princess Ann's sharp mouth, bow down to the wind."
In the dark, Mu Yunyi rolled her eyes.
"So this door leads to the dungeon?" Mo Yan continued to grope for the stone door in front of him, wanting to see if there was anything to do.
"No, this door can only be opened once, and only from the inside, and from the outside, you can't enter from here."
"I see."
"Okay, now let's talk about you, the eldest prince."
"Me? What do I have to say? Mo Yan suddenly approached Mu Yunyi and said, "Could it be ...... Do you want to thank me for my help and life-saving grace? ”
Mu Yunyi took a step back and said solemnly: "I remember that I handed over the Yuanying Blood Lotus to the eldest prince and asked the eldest prince to send it to the Xiaxia Villa to treat my brother's illness on his behalf. ”
"The Great Prince? It seems that there are only two of you and me here, where is the great prince?" Mo Yan looked around in the dark Middle East, pretending to be looking for someone.
Looking at him knowingly, Mu Yunyi didn't answer and continued: "It seems that the eldest prince has broken his promise. ”
"If I break my promise, what are you going to do?" In the dark, Mo Yan could still find Mu Yunyi's unruly eyes.
"Then please return the Yuanying Blood Lotus to me." Mu Yunyi stretched out her hand.
Unexpectedly, Mo Yan suddenly grabbed Mu Yunyi, and gently covered Mu Yunyi's lips with his right backhand.
This sudden action made Mu Yunyi subconsciously resist, but then she reacted that someone was approaching.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for footsteps to approach.
"Subordinates, see Lord Commander!"
"How's it going, did you find anything?" Another male voice responded.
"The subordinates are incompetent, and they still haven't been found." The man's voice was a little ashamed.
"Damn, I can't find anyone anymore, but the emperor wants to ask for punishment and punishment."
"The subordinates thought, could it be that they have already fled down the mountain?"
"The road down the mountain is heavily guarded by our people, if they go down the mountain, how can no one find out?"
"That's right, do they really have the ability to fly to the sky?"
"This strange power is nonsense!"
"The little Hun said, the Lord of the Lords forgives sins."
"Okay, let's take someone to search again, and tell them to raise the spirit of twelve points for me to keep an eye on on the way down the mountain, and don't let me out a single mouse!"
"Yes! Subordinates receive orders! ”
Mu Yunyi and Mo Yan maintained this posture for a long time, the two of them were so close that they could almost feel each other's snorts, Mu Yunyi realized that something was wrong but didn't dare to act rashly, until those people on the ground left, she quickly shook off Mo Yan's hand.
"It happened suddenly, and I was offended." Mo Yan opened his mouth.
Mu Yunyi didn't know why her cheeks were hot, and she couldn't see each other's faces clearly, so she still subconsciously lowered her head and said, "Then, that Yuan Infant Blood Lotus ......"
"Look, it's serious." Mo Yan said with a smile: "The princess also said that I am the eldest prince, so I will be an errand runner for the grand prince, wouldn't it be useless?" ”
"What does the eldest prince mean?"
