The road ahead was thorny and bumpy, but there was no turning back.

"Qiankun lock? How do you know I'm here to get the lock? Ouyang Yu then remembered that a person had also muttered the words Qiankun lock in his mouth before, and it seemed that this old man was not simple.

"Don't be nervous, I'm just helping you."

"Help me? Can you help me with that lock? Ouyang Yu asked in surprise, but soon he felt that it was unlikely, the Qiankun lock was the lifeblood of the Ouyang family, and it had always been collected by the owner of the village himself, that is, his father Ouyang Yan, and only he knew the location of the Qiankun lock, and it was absolutely impossible for others to know.

"I know, you must think that I am only talking big, the collection location of this Qiankun lock can only be known by the owner Ouyang Yan, how can I know it as an old man sweeping the floor." The old man said with a smile.

"That's right, how can you possibly know the location of the Qiankun lock."

"Then if I say that Ouyang Yan put the Qiankun lock here with the old man, do you believe it or not?" The old man said.

"How is this possible?" Ouyang Yu couldn't believe his ears, how could this treasure of the town village be placed in the hands of an old man who cleaned the garden, it was hard to believe.

"It seems that you still don't believe what I say, since that's the case, forget it, anyway, I don't care if you can get out of the ancient labyrinth." The old man continued to sweep up the fallen leaves on the ground.

Ouyang Yu watched the fallen leaves on the ground fly up and fall to the ground gently, the old man didn't sweep the fallen leaves at all, he just changed the position of the fallen leaves, and swept them from this side of the garden to that side.

"Wait, how do you know about the Ancient Labyrinth?" The old man's words made Ouyang Yu feel more and more incredible, and it seemed that he must figure out this matter.

"Okay, since you said that this Qiankun is locked in you, can you give it to me, this is really important to me, I want to use it to unlock the ancient labyrinth." Ouyang Yu said seriously.

"If you want, you can come with me." The old man turned and left the garden.

Ouyang Yu followed the old man and left the garden, the garden returned to its usual tranquility, and all that was left was the scattered fallen leaves flying in the air.

Ouyang Yu and the old man came to a place that Ouyang Yu had never been to before, and he didn't even know that there was such a place in Youyun Mountain Villa.

However, Ouyang Yu found that they could no longer move forward, and there was a wall in front of them blocking their path.

"There's no way out?" Ouyang Yu asked.

The old man didn't answer, just knocked on the wall a few times, and at this time, the wall suddenly began to move, and the wall that was originally blocking them suddenly disappeared, and a downward staircase appeared, Ouyang Yu looked at the stairs very deep, and he couldn't see the bottom at a glance.

The old man took down an oil lamp from the side, then took out a lighter and lit it, and walked slowly down the stairs.

Ouyang Yu followed him and walked.

The stairs were very deep, and Ouyang Yu and the old man walked for a long time without reaching the end, because the lights here were too dim, Ouyang Yu almost fell down as soon as his feet slipped. Fortunately, his reaction was fast enough to grab the rock wall next to him in time to not fall, but the stone at his feet rolled down, judging from the sound of the stone rolling down, this staircase was still a long way away.

"How long will it take for us to get there?" Ouyang Yu couldn't help but ask.

"It's coming, it's coming." The old man's words were obviously perfunctory.

He and the old man continued to walk, and slowly there seemed to be some light in front of them, and it seemed that they were about to reach the end.

The old man walked down the steps and put out the oil lamp in his hand beside him, the bottom of the stairs was very bright, and it was also very spacious, and there were all kinds of treasures in it, these treasures Ouyang Yu couldn't even name them.

"What kind of place is this? I never knew that there was such a place in the Cloud Villa. Ouyang Yu looked around curiously.

"This is the Treasure Pavilion of Youyun Mountain Villa, except for your father and me, there is no third person in the entire Youyun Mountain Villa who knows about this place." The old man said.

Treasure Gallery? Ouyang Yu had heard this name, Ouyang Yan had talked to him when he was very young, but he never told him the specific place, Ouyang Yu also tried to find it himself, but he searched all over the top and bottom of the villa, almost every place, but he didn't find it, he always thought that this place was just a legend of Youyun Villa, and it didn't necessarily really exist.

"Treasure Chamber? There really is this place!! Ouyang Yu felt incredible.

"It seems that you should have heard of this place, this is a place that the Ouyang family has guarded for generations, and this place also carries the glory of the Ouyang family for generations, you see." The old man picked up a sword as he spoke: "This is an imperial sword, according to legend, our ancestors helped the emperor at that time to unlock the Tangram pearl box, and received a reward." ”

"And this, Linglong pendant, Fang Yuhua, etc., it can be said that the okay things here are all treasures at that time, but for us, these are the marks of our family's existence, and they are by no means something that money can be measured." The old man's eyes glistened with tears.

"But...... But ......" the old man wanted to speak several times and stopped.

"Old man, what's wrong with you?" Ouyang Yu asked.

"Look at the Ouyang family now, I'm afraid that few people at that time knew about it, we are like a literati living in the mountains, even if we are talented, what can we do?" The more the old man spoke, the more excited he became.

"The Ancient Labyrinth." Ouyang Yu seemed to be able to understand the old man's thoughts.

"That's right, it was this ancient labyrinth that swept away the honor of our Ouyang family, we can only move to this place where no one cares about it now, who can still show the glory of our family at that time?" The old man continued: "You are different from your father, he is content with the status quo, for fear that the ancient labyrinth will bring a second danger to the Ouyang family, so he will rest on his laurels. I won't let you go to the Ancient Labyrinth, but I don't think so, I think you're right, the Ouyang family must rise!! ”

"But without the Qiankun lock, it is difficult to unlock the ancient labyrinth. Aren't you going to bring me to get the lock? Ouyang Yu asked.

"Qiankun lock? Qiankun lock? Qiankun lock? Hahahaha!!!!! The old man suddenly laughed, but his laughter was full of helplessness.

"What's wrong? Is the Qiankun lock no longer with you? Ouyang Yu was a little confused.

"There's no such thing as a lock! No!!!!! The old man was very excited.

"None? How is this possible? Ouyang Yan told me that this Qiankun lock is the heirloom treasure of our Ouyang family, and every generation of owners is guarding it, how can it be gone? You're not kidding me, are you? ”

"I didn't fool you, the Qiankun lock was damaged when the ancestor took it to unlock the ancient labyrinth, so there is no Qiankun lock."

"What!!! Damaged? How can it be? You've never told me about it, huh? No way!! How could something that every generation of owners have been guarding not exist. Ouyang Yu didn't believe what the old man said.

"You're right, but what every generation of owners are guarding is not the Qiankun Lock, but the lie of owning the Qiankun Lock. Of course, your father is no exception. ”

"This is not true! This is not true! Ouyang Yu was hard to accept.

"I know you don't believe what I'm saying right now, but I'm not here to prove to you that what I'm saying is true, but to help you unravel the ancient labyrinth." The old man said.

"Unravel the ancient labyrinth? But without the Qiankun Lock, how can I unlock the ancient labyrinth?" Ouyang Yu became unconfident.

"The so-called Qiankun lock is actually a treasure that can unlock any mechanism in front of the user when he is trapped by the mechanism."

"Any organs?" Although Ouyang Yu knew the power of the Qiankun lock, he didn't expect that this Qiankun lock could actually unlock any mechanism.

"That's right, it's any mechanism, but this Qiankun lock industry is not omnipotent, it can only be used once, and then it will be damaged, it's not like this, and if you take out three families, you won't lose a lot." The old man said.

"Since the Qiankun lock has been damaged, how can I unlock the ancient labyrinth?" Ouyang Yu asked.

"Although the Qiankun lock has been damaged, it doesn't mean that you can't unlock the ancient labyrinth, as long as you can unlock the mechanism in the ancient labyrinth, you can also get out of the ancient labyrinth." The old man's words sounded very simple, but the mechanism in the ancient labyrinth was complicated, and Ouyang Yu did not have confidence in his heart.

"At the beginning, even the ancestors took the Qiankun lock into the ancient labyrinth and suffered heavy losses, not to mention that I didn't have the Qiankun lock in my hand, how could I unlock it?"

"Have you forgotten that the people of the Ouyang family have been studying all kinds of mechanisms since they were children, are these all jokes?" The old man was a little angry: "I originally thought that you were different from them, but I didn't expect that as soon as you heard the fact that the Qiankun lock was not available, you would never challenge the ancient labyrinth again, just like those owners of the previous generations!! ”

Ouyang Yu was a little shocked when he heard this, he originally wanted to let the world know about the Ouyang family again, but just now he actually hesitated.

"No, even if what you say is true, I don't have a Qiankun lock, but I will still go to the ancient labyrinth!" Ouyang Yu said resolutely.

"Very good!! Very good!!! I wasn't mistaken about anyone. The old man suddenly became happy again. You see, these treasures, although not as good as the Qiankun lock, but some of them are still very useful. ”

Ouyang Yu looked at these treasures.

"Golden thread?" Ouyang Yu picked up a ball of thread, he knew that the toughness of this golden thread was very good, and it would hardly break.

"What's wrong? Is the Qiankun lock no longer with you? Ouyang Yu was a little confused.

"There's no such thing as a lock! No!!!!! The old man was very excited.

"None? How is this possible? Ouyang Yan told me that this Qiankun lock is the heirloom treasure of our Ouyang family, and every generation of owners is guarding it, how can it be gone? You're not kidding me, are you? ”

"I didn't fool you, the Qiankun lock was damaged when the ancestor took it to unlock the ancient labyrinth, so there is no Qiankun lock."

"What!!! Damaged? How can it be? You've never told me about it, huh? No way!! How could something that every generation of owners have been guarding not exist. Ouyang Yu didn't believe what the old man said.

"You're right, but what every generation of owners are guarding is not the Qiankun Lock, but the lie of owning the Qiankun Lock. Of course, your father is no exception. ”

"This is not true! This is not true! Ouyang Yu was hard to accept.

Ouyang Yu looked at these treasures.

"Golden thread?" Ouyang Yu picked up a ball of thread, he knew that the toughness of this golden thread was very good, and it would hardly break.

"You can take away the treasures you can use here, I believe it will help." The old man said.

Ouyang Yu picked a few items and put them in his backpack and said, "Then I'll thank you." ”

"Thanks for what? This is originally the Ouyang family's thing, and it is only natural to give it to you, as long as you can solve the ancient labyrinth, then the prestige of our Ouyang family will return to the glory of that time. The old man's Mr. Yan seemed to see hope again.

After Ouyang Yu said goodbye to the old man, he left the Treasure Pavilion alone.

The night was still dark, Ouyang Yu returned to his room, he closed his eyes, and when it was dawn, he was about to leave here, and he didn't know if he could return here.

In the early morning, the sunlight poured into Ouyang Yu's room, he opened his eyes slightly, and after a brief cleanup, he was ready to go.

When he came to the gate of Youyun Villa, Wang Ning was already standing there waiting for him.

"Yu'er, do you really want to leave? Your father is just angry, don't blame him. Wangning had tears in his eyes.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine." Ouyang Yu didn't want his mother to worry.

"You must come back."

Ouyang Yu turned around and left the Youyun Mountain Villa.

He made his way through the Wounded Plain to the station, where he boarded the first train back to the city.

The sun was shining well on this day, I looked at the time, at five o'clock, he had to rush to the building of the Tangde Group at eight o'clock, he mentally calculated the time, there should be no problem.

........

........

On this day, Murong Feng also got up early, he freshened up, checked his backpack, made sure that everything was ready, and then went out.

7:20 a.m....

There are already a lot of people in front of the building of the Tangde Group,

Obviously, everyone didn't want to miss this important moment, and Murong Feng arrived here very early.

"Isn't this the kid at the mobilization meeting?"

"yes, I didn't expect him to actually come back."

"I think he's going to die."

The people around Murong Feng were laughing at him, compared to those people, Murong Feng was indeed a little unknown and insignificant, but this also happened to be a good opportunity to prove himself.

Maybe the time is still a little early, the staff of Tangde Group has not yet come, Murong Feng has found a place with fewer people to wait.

8:37 a.m....

At this time, Murong Feng actually saw a familiar figure walking towards him, and he rubbed his eyes to confirm whether he was mistaken.

Ouyang Yu!!

How could he be here, this is impossible!!

He walked up quickly and asked Ouyang Yu, "Why are you here?" ”

"I'm here to join the rescue team of the Ancient Labyrinth." Ouyang Yu didn't want to pay too much attention to Murong Feng.

Originally, Murong Feng came here to find an opportunity to prove himself, but now it's good that Ouyang Yu actually came here, which is a huge challenge for Murong Feng.

Ouyang Yu's strength Murong Feng couldn't be clearer.

But just when he was worried about this, another person suddenly appeared, and this time Murong Feng didn't know how to describe how he felt at this time.
