Volume 2 Demon Palace Chapter 14
In the evening, Sikong Yang had dinner with her.
On the dining table, Taixia adhered to the fine habit of eating without saying a word, and did not say a word.
This silent appearance made Sikong Yang a little unaccustomed, and asked casually: "Have you finished writing the homework you left yesterday?" ”
Yu Taixia swallowed the food in his mouth before replying: "I have finished writing, and it has been placed on the table in the study." ”
The demeanor is also docile and humble, obviously there is still a child's immaturity on her cheeks, and there is a bit of a woman's posture when she lowers her head.
Tsk, it's not interesting. He sighed in his heart and stopped talking.
After eating, Sikong Yang took Tai Xia's hand, and in the blink of an eye, the two of them appeared in the study, and Si Kong Yang saw that there were already a few pieces of paper full of handwriting on the table where Tan Tai Xia was reading yesterday.
He suddenly didn't like this kind of Taixia very much.
She should be disobedient, she should be delicate and don't like to read, and she should be tempted by biting her little fangs that don't hurt.
Only it shouldn't be like this.
It's just that Sikong Yang has stood at the top of the peak for too long, so long that he has forgotten how all living beings live.
It's not to the point of not eating minced meat, and it's almost the same.
Facing the obedient and well-behaved Taixia, he felt restrained, stayed in the study for a while and left.
This is convenient for Tantai Xia.
She immediately got up, her eyes searched the huge bookshelf with ten lines, Sikong Yang's "disgust" for her was temporary, and she didn't have much time.
"This entry-level immortal cultivation manual should be the most basic, how could Sikong Yang not have it?"
Instead, she found several books she had read, and some of the long books she had only read but had not found, so she secretly took one and hid it in her arms, preparing to go to the bedroom to look at it secretly.
The book is to lean on the head of the bed, and it is best to prepare a stack of dried fruits and a pot of herbal tea, and watch it while eating, which is called comfortable.
She thought about it for a while, this study Sikong Yang has never been defended, is it that the books about cultivating immortals are relatively secret, and he may have placed them in the secret room?
It's the place where she and Luohua went.
Without further ado, she turned and walked out of the study to the wall.
Tan Tai Xia's heart beats fast, except for the time when she went to the Lin Family Library when she was a child, this is the second time she has done "bad" things.
And this time, there is no Lin Xiangchen doing things for her, if she is discovered by Sikong Yang.
She didn't know, the only guarantee was probably that she could live, and what Sikong Yang could get from her hadn't arrived yet, and he wouldn't let her die like this.
At this time, Taixia didn't know that there was a word called pampered and arrogant, which was to describe her at the moment.
She fumbled around the wall for a long time, and finally found a hard lump that felt different from other places.
How did Luohua move?
As she recalled her movements in the morning, the gap slowly opened.
"It's done!"
She cheered in her heart, and suppressed her excitement, and she quietly moved into the secret room.
The secret room was the same as during the day, and Taixia chose to walk forward, keeping an eye on the small rooms on both sides, and when he reached the end, he already had a plan in his heart.
The room is roughly divided into three categories, one is uncovered, you can see it at a glance when you stand on the passage, most of them are some bronze vessels and the like, and there is soil on them, and Taixia reasonably speculates that this is whose grave Sikong Yang went to dig, but he didn't expect him to have a hobby of robbing tombs.
The second type is looming, covered with a curtain, Taixia looked at it for a while, there were some weapons inside, but they were roughly made, they didn't look like magic weapons or anything, they were more novel in style, maybe Sikong Yang also thought it was interesting and took it back to play with it, he was very curious, and Taixia felt that he knew Sikong Yang a little more.
The third category is tightly covered, she needs to go into the house to know what is inside, and what she wants must be in this category.
The passage was quite long, and she didn't want to waste time, so she chose the room on the left hand side with the door and pushed the door in.
It was pitch black inside, and she couldn't see her five fingers, and she was a little scared in her heart, and she didn't dare to grope for anything on the wall, if she touched the mechanism or something, she would be dead.
So she exited the room, trying to get a torch from the outside wall.
I don't know what the torch is burned with, but she found it when the two of them passed by in the morning, and the fire wind blew and didn't move at all, presumably it was also the handiwork of the immortals.
She gently plucked a torch, and was relieved to see that it did not change the attitude of the flame in the slightest.
And at this time, a mutation suddenly occurred.
The torches on the walls on both sides were all extinguished, and the entire passage was plunged into darkness, and Yutai Xia was shocked, realizing that he had still touched the mechanism.
She didn't dare to make any movement, and froze in place for about a quarter of an hour, with no movement except darkness around her, and she thought that maybe it was just a warning, and maybe it would be fine to put the torch back in, so she thought with a stiff step, one hand tentatively probing in the air, trying to find the place where she had picked up the torch before.
And just as her hand was fumbling, a cold object touched the back of her hand, and she suddenly retracted her hand.
I don't know if it was her delusion or whatever, but she seemed to have heard something else in the secret room, like the sound of liquid flowing.
She put the touched place under her nose and sniffed it twice, it was the smell of water.
But the secret room is built on the inside of the palace, how can there be water?
Taixia panicked, a little at a loss, and the sound of water became louder and louder.
The temperature of the secret room dropped suddenly, and a layer of goosebumps already appeared on her arms, and the tip of her nose smelled the moisture of the air, which was already close at hand.
Run!
This was the first thought in her mind, it was impossible to run back, she could only go to the exit of the tea room.
She threw the torch on the ground, turned and ran.
The water rushing behind her was only an arm's length away from her.
There was no light source in the passage, and she suddenly lost her sense of direction, she clearly remembered that the passage was a straight line, and the exit was not far from the room.
She had been running for a while, her legs and feet were a little weak, and the sound of rushing water was getting closer and closer, but she couldn't run anymore.
Are you going to drown here? The sound of roaring water was in her ears, and her legs seemed to be filled with molten iron, and her pace became slower and slower.
The exit is obviously close at hand, but I can't find it!
Suddenly, she stumbled and threw herself on the ground.
It's over, I'm going to die.
The thought flashed through her mind, but she didn't have the strength to get up, and struggled with her hands, but her legs were unconscious.
She could only close her eyes in despair.
After waiting for a while, the sound of the water was still as loud as thunder, but it was some distance away from her, and Tang Taixia had a bold guess.
