Chapter 254: Secret Room in Distress
waved the soft sword in his hand, and after a crisp "dingbell" sound, those hidden weapons fell to the ground one after another. The hidden weapon was not fired at them again, but they did not dare to move a step easily.
"Your Majesty, if there is a hidden weapon mechanism here, there must be a general control organ." She reminded in a whisper.
Long Xuanyu raised his eyes and looked at the portrait on the wall in front of him. The people in the portrait are none other than his father, emperor and queen mother. He never knew that there was such a dark room in Long Xuanyuan's bedroom. Moreover, Long Xuanyuan also set up the spiritual seat of his father and queen mother in the dark room.
"Your Majesty, why did you say that Emperor Xuanyuan would set up such a dark room in his bedroom? Moreover, there are also special spiritual seats for the Emperor and the Queen Mother. It shows that Emperor Xuanyuan also respects them very much! Xin'er said softly, a pair of dark crystal eyes carefully observing the expression on Long Xuanyu's face.
"Xiao Muzi, the general control organ you said should be ......" Long Xuanyu raised his hand and actually pointed to the painting.
Xin'er also raised her eyes to stare at the painting, and at this moment, she realized that the painting was not exactly the same as what she saw that day. On the left chest of the Emperor Taishang, there seems to be an extra golden dragon pattern. The golden dragon's eyes were wide open, as if it were watching them.
"Your Majesty, that's a portrait of the Emperor, what are you going to do?" The position where they were standing, some distance from the portrait, it was impossible to take the painting down and then close the mechanism. If you close the trap like this, you're going to ruin the portrait! Obviously, the person who set up this organ also took advantage of this and decided that it was impossible for Long Xuanyu to be disrespectful to his father.
However. Long Xuanyu didn't think about it, and the sword in his hand was thrown and directly inserted into the left chest of the portrait of his father. There, right there, is the part of the heart. There was a thud in their ears, and soon it was all gone! In other words, it was the general control organ, and all the hidden weapon mechanisms were closed.
Looking at the long sword firmly inserted in the portrait, Xin'er was still a little shocked: "Your Majesty, you ......"
Long Xuanyu's perfectly handsome face was cold and cold. If. If only he knew who set it up. I'm sure I'll cut that man with a thousand knives. However, his tone at the moment was very indifferent and calm: "It's just a portrait, I believe that neither the father nor the queen mother want me to be in any danger!" β
"Heh, the emperor's words are very reasonable!" Xin'er smiled easily. One swooped over to the portrait. She looked closely at the portrait. Raise your hand. Gently caress the golden dragon pattern that was pierced by the sword. It's just that when her hand stroked the golden dragon pattern, a thin layer of paper slipped down! Originally. This golden dragon pattern was later pasted. And the original portrait has been pierced countless times!
In other words, this mechanism has always been activated. Whenever someone comes here, they will stick a sword there and close the whole trap! Who set up such an organ, obviously hated the emperor so much, that he would come up with such attention. Even those who have already passed away have to be stabbed in the heart of his portrait!
Long Xuanyu stepped forward and pulled the portrait. It's better not to hang here than to hang it and let people stick it with a sword! However, as the portrait was torn off, the stone slab under their feet "rattled", and the two of them fell down rapidly.
The cold floor hit their bodies, as if they had fallen apart in an instant, and it hurt!
"Ouch!" She instinctively yelled and got up from the ground!
It's a rectangular stone room, with two papier-mΓ’chΓ© windows, and a lantern behind it! Unexpectedly, she fell into this again. This stone room, though not the one she fell into last time, happened to be one of the four.
Long Xuanyu jumped up, and her first reaction was the same as the first time she fell. Pushing open the two windows separately, I realized that they were not windows at all, and I couldn't see the outside. He returned to the lower part of the cave entrance and stepped on the stone wall to get up, trying to use his light skills to sweep out of the cave. It's just that this stone chamber is indeed too deep, and no matter how high the light skill is, it is impossible to sweep it up.
"Your Majesty, you can't get out at all like this!" Xin'er said softly, "We have to think of something else. As she spoke, she had opened the mechanism in the corner and walked towards another stone chamber.
They made their way through two stone chambers to the one she had first fallen into. It's just that there is no straw in this stone room. Because, those straws were twisted into ropes by her and used as a tool for escape. Today, it is impossible to remain in the stone chamber.
"Little Muzi!" Long Xuanyu's puzzled voice came from behind her, "You seem to be familiar with this place. β
"Of course I'm familiar, because ......," blurted out halfway through, and hurriedly said, "Because the minion is very interested in the dark room or something, so I'll study it myself if I have nothing to do." So it's more familiar! She looked up at him, and in the dim light, she could still see his deep and shining eyes. I don't know if he will believe her explanation like this!
Long Xuanyu didn't say anything, but those deep eyes stared at her for a long time.
They continued to move forward step by step, and without knowing what they had stepped on, she stumbled and was about to throw forward. Long Xuanyu's slender arm fished out, and while holding her firmly, the steps under his feet stepped back a few steps.
Looking carefully at the ground, in the dim light, a female corpse dressed as a palace maid was lying there! This female corpse is naturally the woman who was injured and fell down the last time she escaped from this tomb with Su Zige. I didn't expect her to die here, and her accomplices didn't bury her for her!
"Your Majesty, do the palace maids in this palace have any symbolic status marks?" Now that this corpse has been found, she can just determine whether these palace maids are women in the palace or not! Moreover, the location of this stone chamber is very deep, the temperature below is humid and low, and the woman's body has not yet decomposed.
"Marking?" Long Xuanyu asked rhetorically, naturally not understanding what she meant.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Xin'er nodded, "The slave wants to know if this woman is the palace maid in the palace!" β
Long Xuanyu squatted down, turned over the corpse, and gently ripped open the collar at the back of the female corpse's neck. Where the collar obscures it, there's nothing. However, Long Xuanyu's hand paused obviously! He was amazed and shocked!
"Your Majesty, what's wrong?" She also crouched down and couldn't help but ask.
"She's not a palace maid in the palace!" Long Xuanyu categorically affirmed, "All women who enter the palace as palace maids, on the first day they enter the palace, they will be tattooed with a flowing cloud on the back of their necks. This is not only a symbol of their status, but also a sign of glory for them to leave the palace in the future! β
"It's not a woman in the palace, it's definitely a playboy and their people!" Xin'er grabbed the female corpse's hand and lifted the sleeve of the female corpse's clothes upwards. Above the forearm, there was suddenly a burning flame! Xiaoyao Palace, sure enough, is the people of Xiaoyao Palace!
She had seen the red flames on the arms of those women when she was in the Loose Palace. It is exactly the same as the one on the arm of this female corpse, and the position and size are basically the same.
"Ji Xiaoyao!" Long Xuanyu's cold voice overflowed, and he also recognized that this was the symbol of Xiaoyao Palace, so he said the name of "Ji Xiaoyao" so coldly.
Xin'er was silent: Is it really Ji Xiaoyao? If it's Ji Xiaoyao, what is his purpose? Everything Ji Xiaoyao did was for Bai Zhi, could it be that Bai Zhi wanted to restore the country, so Ji Xiaoyao would take further action.
However, with Bai Zhi's light and quiet character, it is impossible to have such ambitions!
"This woman is from Xiaoyao Palace, not necessarily what Ji Xiaoyao means!" She pleaded softly. When she was surrounded and killed by those women in red in the thatched house, she also thought it was Ji Xiaoyao. However, she didn't see Ji Xiaoyao, but a playboy!
Long Xuanyu stopped talking, got up, and found the mechanism in the same position. With a "boom", a wall moved, and in the center of the empty stone room, there was actually a person sitting cross-legged!
"Night!" Before she could see the person's appearance clearly, Long Xuanyu had already rushed over.
Xin'er also hurriedly ran up, and after a closer look, it was really night like ink! At this moment, he is just maintaining his life with a breath of true qi. He's been waiting, waiting for someone to find him!
Long Xuanyu immediately meditated cross-legged, trying to inject more true qi into Ye Rumo's body. However, before his true qi could be exported, he spit out a mouthful of blood!
"Your Majesty!" Xin'er was shocked, how could he suddenly vomit blood? grabbed Long Xuanyu's hand, but her hand was wet. If you look closely at the wet blood, it turns black!
Poisonous! It turned out that the arrow that Long Xuanyu was slashed in the dark room was actually poisonous! However, he was poisoned for so long, and he still persisted, without showing a trace of pain and discomfort.
"Your Majesty, you were poisoned, why didn't you say it earlier?" Xin'er was both flustered and reproachful.
Long Xuanyu looked at her who was so anxious, but indifferently hooked the corners of his lips: "What can you do if you tell you?" Could it be that you can still save me? We are trapped in this now, and Liu Decai and the others do not dare to enter the Qiankun Palace easily without my permission. Maybe I'll really ...... today."
"What do you say? Your Majesty, Xiao Muzi won't let you die, no! As she spoke, she had already taken out a bottle of Pure Heart Detoxification Lotion and poured it into Long Xuanyu's mouth.
"Xiao Muzi, ...... are you" Looking at the porcelain bottle that Xin'er took out of her arms, Long Xuanyu's weak voice couldn't help but ask. Because, that kind of porcelain vase, he felt very familiar. Once, he seemed to see it a lot. It's just that he can't remember where he has seen it or whose hands he has seen it.
Xin'er looked at the porcelain bottle in her hand and chuckled: "This is medicinal dew!" This potion can be used as a fragrance dew, and it can also cure diseases and save people! β
Long Xuan glanced at Ye Rumo next to him, and weakly spit out two words: "Xiao Muzi, save ...... He! (To be continued.) )
