Chapter 421: Abandoning the Innocent

"Will this passage lead directly to the Su family?" Ji Li asked.

"It's possible, but I don't think Xia Xun will be so simple." Ouyang Keyu said.

"Do you suspect that this passage has been penetrated by him somewhere else?" Ji Li asked, his tone rarely tinged with mood swings.

Ouyang Keyu felt that talking to him was like talking to a robot in Su Jiu'er's memory.

"Yes, it's good for him and it will allow him to grow faster." Ouyang Keyu said.

The two walked side by side, and after walking for a distance, they really saw the forked intersection, Ouyang Keyu looked at Ji Li, and said, "I don't know how many intersections there are here, let's go by feeling first, don't act separately."

Ji Li nodded and took out a piece of paper from his arms.

"What do you do?" Ouyang Keyu asked.

"Draw down the layout of the tunnels so you can come back later." Ji Li said that he had already drawn a line, and then dotted a few dots.

Ouyang Keyu was very curious about what Ji Li was holding in his hand, and he had a sense of déjà vu.

"What is this?" Ouyang Keyu asked.

What is that round, long, sharp lower end that leaves a black mark on the paper?

"Jiu'er said that this is a pen, used for writing, better than a brush, and it is true." Ji Li put the pen away before explaining, it seems that he was afraid that Ouyang Keyu would snatch the pen away.

Ouyang Keyu was no longer curious when he saw Ji Li's defense, and said, "Keep going." ”

The previous speculation was correct. Ouyang Keyu and Ji Li walked on a road that looked relatively old, and when they reached the end and pushed away the wooden plank in front of them, they were surprised to find that the exit was in a house.

Ouyang Keyu was the first to walk out, looking around, feeling the smell in the air, in addition to the smell of mold and dampness, there was also a faint smell of decay.

"This is the Su family." Ji Li said.

Ouyang Keyu let out a soft "um", and then asked, "But whose room is this, and why is this tunnel exit here?"

"Don't you look through it?" Ji Li said, turning to look at the bulky bookshelves blocking the tunnel.

The bookshelves are full of books, all of them are covered with dust, but there are still traces of being moved, Ji Li looked at those finger prints, and said in his heart, I really don't know who this is, I am really bold, and I actually left traces.

Ji Li reached out to get the cleanest-looking book, and Ouyang Keyu immediately shouted, "Don't move!"

Ji Li looked sideways slightly, the hand stretched out upwards did not stop, in Ouyang Keyu's gradually nervous gaze, Ji Li's fingers touched the book, a touch of dust fell, Ji Li dodged, and grabbed the book, but found that the book was like being embedded in the bookshelf.

"Are you alright?" Ouyang Keyu stepped forward and asked, seeing that Ji Li suddenly stopped moving, Ouyang Keyu's heart suddenly became nervous.

"It's okay, I know what you're worried about, poison won't work for me." Ji Li said.

Ouyang Keyu then remembered that Ji Li was not an ordinary person.

"Is there anything strange about that book?" Ouyang Keyu asked.

"It's weird if you can't take it off." Ji Li said.

Ouyang Keyu was stunned, can't take it down?

He raised his head and carefully examined the book in Ji Li's hand, then reached up and said to Ji Li, "I'll try."

Ji Li let go when he heard this.

Ouyang Keyu's hand grabbed the upper end of the book and pulled it down, the book seemed to have a stubborn temper, but it didn't move at all.

Could it be some kind of mechanism? Ouyang Keyu thought, and then a clever force in his hand covered the front of the book, and there was a "click", as if the sound of the lock opening appeared on the right side.

Ji Li followed the sound and saw that there was an inconspicuous dresser there.

Ouyang Keyu put down his hand, looked at the dresser with a scrutinizing gaze, and then looked at Ji Li, who happened to look at him at this time, and the two walked towards the dresser together.

"There's a dresser, and it looks like a place for women to live." Ji Li said.

"Could it be Jiu'er's mother?" Ouyang Keyu asked.

Ji Li knew about the old dynasty and Mang, so he immediately said: "It's possible, this dresser is very rough, it must not have been given by Su Yuanping, and Ge Rou has lost her memory, it is impossible for her to design this kind of mechanism."

"Could it be that someone is helping her?" Ouyang Keyu was surprised.

Ji Li reached out and touched the dresser, which was covered with dust, "It seems that this mechanism is waiting for you." ”

After Ji Li finished speaking, he looked at Ouyang Keyu.

Ouyang Keyu knew where Ji Li must have come from, and the people who came here to rummage through it must have also found something unusual about that book, but he didn't open the mechanism, looking at the degree of dust on the book, this person would definitely come every once in a while.

Ji Li was about to check the dresser, as a mechanism, this dresser must be hiding a mystery.

Ouyang Keyu grabbed Ji Li's raised hand.

"What's wrong?" Ji Li looked at Ouyang Keyu in surprise and asked.

"Don't move yet, let's wait and see who's here." Ouyang Keyu said.

Ji Li pondered for a while, nodded and asked, "Then let's hide."

The two of them hid relatively close to the bookshelf, and there happened to be a curtain next to it, and they hid their breath and waited quietly.

After waiting for a long time, seeing that the sky was getting brighter, Ji Li looked at Ouyang Keyu and shook his head, indicating that he might not be able to wait for anyone today.

Ouyang Keyu frowned, and was about to say that he would come back tomorrow, when he suddenly heard a sound of footsteps appear above his head, and hurriedly grabbed Ji Li.

Ji Li was a smart one, and immediately understood, and quickly hid the exposed breath.

After a breath, the black figure entered the sight of the two, because the sky had turned white, so on the white background, it was impossible to see the appearance of the person who came, but it felt familiar, and it seemed to be a woman from the other party's figure.

When the figure entered the room, Ouyang Keyu's eyes widened, but Ji Li's expression was still gentle, and he didn't feel pain at Wen Jing's appearance.

Wen Jing looked around, walked straight to the bookshelf, raised her head and reached out to grab the book, no matter how hard she tried, the book didn't move at all, she tossed for a while and then left.

"She's gone." Ji Li said, and then looked at Ouyang Keyu, who was stunned.

"You say...... If Jiu'er saw Wen Jing's appearance...... "Ouyang Keyu didn't know how to express the worry in his heart.

"It's really unacceptable for an ignorant person to suddenly be able to fly off the wall, and I was shocked just now." Ji Li said, but he couldn't hear that he was shocked.

"Let's move the dresser back." Ouyang Keyu said.

"Well, if it's Jiu'er's mother's thing, then Jiu'er should open it." Ji Li said, "But the goal with the dresser is too big, what if you are targeted?" ”

This is a problem, Ouyang Keyu also thought of it, so he also thought of a countermeasure, that is, to use his set of footwork, which is a martial art that even Su Jiu'er didn't steal.
