Chapter 54: Heavenly Road
"Xuanming, I must go!"
Li Bingru pulled the corner of Nangong Xuanming's sleeve and refused to back down even half a step.
Li Yuchen has fallen to this point because of her, how can she wait with peace of mind?
Nangong Xuanming lowered his eyes and glanced at the soft little hand holding the cuffs, his dark eyes flashed, and he compromised. Then his gaze turned to Li Bingwu behind him.
As if summoned, Li Bingwu raised his head violently.
"Young Master Sun, you said, where my sister is, where the slave and maid are!"
Nangong Xuanming hooked the corners of his lips as if appreciative, and his brilliance was comparable to that of the sun and the moon.
"Since you also call your sister sister, you don't have to call yourself a 'slave' in the future!"
When Li Bingwu heard this, he immediately rejoiced, and his fair little face was dyed peachy pink.
"Thank you! Xiao Wu, thank you, Young Master Sun! ”
Li Bingru wanted to laugh at Li Bingwu's stupidity, and she was happy to be like this for a sentence. However, when he looked back and saw the key in Nangong Xuanming's hand, he didn't have any mood except for worrying about Li Yuchen.
The three of them were led by Nangong Xuanming, walked through unfamiliar roads, passed through round arches, and when a mountain peaked from the ground blocked in front of him, Li Bingru couldn't help but open his mouth in surprise.
"Where is this?"
"Wu Si Mansion." Nangong Xuanming replied.
Li Bingru glanced back, the courtyard wall not far away, the lush and weeping towering trees in front of the courtyard wall, and there seemed to be an elegant and wanton white-clothed young man lying on the slanted branches, staring at her with deep eyes as if smiling.
"Sister." Nangong Xuanming suddenly grabbed Li Bingru's hand, "Follow me, you must be careful!" ”
"Huh?" Li Bingru was puzzled, "Isn't Wusi Mansion a place to be punished for claustrophobia?" ”
"My sister knows one thing, but I don't know the other." Nangong Xuan smiled brightly, "Wu Si Mansion is not only a place where the Nangong family is punished for making mistakes, but also a place where the most heinous criminals are punished. ”
"Dark dungeon?" Li Bingru suddenly thought of these two words, and the words "the worst crime" made her feel slightly uncomfortable.
"Sister is so smart!" Nangong Xuanming rewarded Li Bingru with a brighter and brighter smile.
Being praised for being smart by a half-year-old kid? Li Bingru could only pout.
"Sister, look-" Nangong Xuanming pointed to the dense small squares in front of the door of the cave, each of which was carved with different patterns of flowers, insects, birds and beasts.
"This is called the Heavenly Road, ninety-nine-eighty-one square grid, each palace grid seems to be unrelated, but a closer look can find that the pattern on each palace grid has a hidden position of the next palace grid, go right, the door of Wusi Mansion can be opened."
"This is the legendary mechanism?" Li Bingru's eyes widened, and she didn't dare to miss every tiny move of Nangong Xuanming.
"How is it a legend?" Nangong Xuanming held Li Bingru and didn't dare to let go of half a point.
"Hey, what happens if you go wrong?"
"Touching the mechanism, danger is everywhere." Nangong Xuanming suddenly condensed, "And, there is only one right way." ”
"Huh?" Li Bingru was stunned, she thought that as long as she found the hidden location, she could walk through it no matter which way.
"So sister, we must be careful, if we step on the wrong palace grid or choose the wrong path, the three of us will probably have to die here."
Li Bingru pursed her lips, stopped talking, and concentrated on her feet, her heart churning. What kind of important figure is Li Yuchen who is worthy of their efforts?
Stepping through the last grid, the stone gate on the mountain wall rumbled open.
Nangong Xuanming held Li Bingru tightly, Li Bingru held Li Bingwu tightly, and the three of them entered the stone cave in a row.
The stone door was wide open, and a cold wind blew in from the entrance of the cave, and the copper basins filled with fuel on both sides of the cave spontaneously combusted in the wind, illuminating an originally dark road.
Nangong Xuanming grabbed Li Bingru, raised his head slightly and did not squint, as if he was a little proud. Seeing this, Li Bingru let go of her hanging heart, and it seemed that there was no danger in this paragraph.
Only then did I find that my palms were soaked with sweat, and the grip on my hands was even tighter.
"Are you scared, Xiao Wu?" Li Bingru turned around and shook the hands of the two of them as if comfortingly.
Li Bingwu shrunk and shook her head repeatedly, "With Young Master Sun and my sister here, Xiao Wu is not afraid." ”
"Well, don't worry, Xuanming won't let us have anything to do." Li Bingru clearly felt Li Bingwu's nervousness.
"Hmm!" When Li Bingwu heard this, he was greatly encouraged, and his tense body gradually relaxed.
"Whoosh! Sou! Sou! ”
"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”
The door of the cave that I had just walked through suddenly came the sound of a sharp weapon breaking through the stone door, and then the sound of a gold object slamming against the stone wall.
"Ahh
Li Bingwu was startled by the sudden sound, and shrank back from Li Bingru.
"What's going on?"
Li Bingru also took two steps back in shock, and while comforting the frightened Li Bingwu, she asked Xuanming, hadn't they passed safely?
Nangong Xuanming's clear eyes gradually gathered cold light.
"I'm afraid someone has broken in."
"Huh? Let's check it out! ”
Li Bingru hurriedly walked towards the stone gate. At this time, the person who can break into this place must be the person who came to save Li Yuchen.
Nangong Xuanming looked at Li Bingru, his eyes turned faintly. Still walked over, let the Li Bingru sisters step back, and patted on the stone wall next to them, the stone door rumbled and shook, and a gap opened in the general, and two black figures supporting each other quickly flashed in, obviously seriously injured.
Nangong Xuanming's hands were behind his back, and his head was held high.
The two black-clothed men were startled when they didn't expect someone in the cave, and then the long sword came out of the sheath, and the sharp tip of the sword pointed directly at Shangnangong Xuanming, and the momentum that was ready to go was not as weak as the one who had just supported each other.
Suddenly, another black figure flew in. Seeing the situation in the cave, he was stunned for a moment, and then quickly raised his sword and united with the two men in black before.
"Young Master Nangong Sun?" Later, when the man in black saw Nangong Xuanming's face clearly, he was slightly surprised.
"If it weren't for me, you think you're still alive?" Nangong Xuanming's posture is really like that.
The two black-clothed men looked at each other, and looked at the black-clothed man who came in behind, and the black-clothed man who came in behind put away his long sword and clenched his fists with both hands, "Offended!" ”
"Who are you?" Li Bingru pulled Li Bingwu forward with small steps, and she seemed to have seen the expressionless man in front of her with a black power suit on his face.
In fact, it is not difficult to guess, it is said that things gather like like, but looking at the three people in front of them facing life and death, they are still calm and calm, and they are not shocked, so they know who they look like.
"Miss Li?" The man in black was surprised, and then folded his hands and saluted, "In the lower swallow wind!" ”
"Yan Feng?" Li Bingru frowned suspiciously, she had never heard of this name, and she couldn't tell what he was talking about in a blur, Miss Li? Or Miss Li?
"Yes." Yan Feng folded another salute and pointed to the two people behind him, "Ling Feng, Qiao Feng, we are all the master's personal guards." ”
When Li Bingru heard the name "Qiao Feng", she felt in a trance that she was approaching "Dragon Babu", but, master?
"Your master, is it Li Yuchen?" Nangong Xuanming said in a deep voice, saying that he was asking, and he was even more stating.
"Yes!" This time, the three of them saluted in unison, their voices sonorous and respectful.
"Even if we have the same goal, let's go together."
Nangong Xuanming said, grabbed Li Bingru's hand, Li Bingru only thought that there was some dangerous mechanism in front of him, so he let Nangong Xuanming lead him, and did not forget to hold Li Bingwu firmly.
Ling Feng and Qiao Feng looked at Yan Feng with inquiring eyes, Yan Feng nodded, and took the lead in keeping up with the footsteps of Nangong Xuanming and the others, his eyes stayed on the hands of Nangong Xuanming and Li Bingming, and the worry between his eyebrows was even heavier.
Walking through the stone cave of three or five meters, the eyes suddenly open up, open and tall space, there is a row of long stone tables in the center, the stone table is paved with a straw round futon, a pen holder on the stone table, from the bamboo stick to the wrist thick brush is readily available, no less than dozens, neatly arranged like a long gonghou.
The inkstones of various shapes are colorful and colorful, more like the flowers in the garden, and there is a mountain of rice paper next to it.
There is nothing else in the whole space.
Looking at the surrounding stone walls, Li Bingru couldn't help but open her mouth in surprise. The stone walls are ground into flat surfaces, each of which is engraved with dense text, not only around, but also on the stone wall overhead.
Li Bingru couldn't even estimate how many planes there were in this cave, let alone calculate the densely packed words on each plane, like ants, and his scalp was numb just looking at it.
"That's where the punishment comes in." Nangong walked here and paused slightly.
"If the people of the Nangong family make a mistake. You must kneel in front of the ancient table and copy all the articles on the stone wall, and then realize a self-reflection essay before it is over. ”
"How long will it take to transcribe so much content?" Li Bingru looked at the stone walls in surprise, no wonder Helan said that once she was punished in, she couldn't get out for three or five days, and if it was left to her, it was estimated that she wouldn't be able to complete it in a year and a half, let alone Wu Xingwen.
"Sister, don't worry, I've memorized all the content here." Nangong Xuanming raised his little face and showed smugness, "If you are punished again, it only takes one day to write silently." ”
"How is that possible?"
"Sister doesn't believe me?" Nangong Xuanming said, and pursed his red lips aggrievedly, very sexy and charming.
Li Bingru's heart sank, and she hurriedly replied: "It's not that I don't believe you, I don't want you to come into this kind of place again." ”
"Sister, you're so nice."
Nangong Xuan smiled brightly, and his eyes sank.
"Don't touch it!"
Hearing this, Yan Feng and the three of them quickly withdrew their hands that fell on the words on the stone wall.
"Xuanming, didn't you say that there is a secret prison here?" Li Bingru hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
"Sister, come with me."
Nangong Xuanming pulled Li Bingru to a corner of the backlight, which turned out to be a dark downward stone staircase no more than half a foot wide, which was really difficult to identify if you didn't look carefully. Standing at the top of the stairs, there is a stream of cold wind rushing straight in.
Thinking that the injured Li Yuchen was suffering in such an environment, I couldn't help but feel sad.
"Sister!" Nangong Xuanming grabbed Li Bingru, who was walking towards the steps, "You wait for us above." ”
"I don't want it."
has already come here, what reason does she have not to see if Li Yuchen is okay with her own eyes?
"It's an order." Nangong Xuanming suddenly looked at Li Bingru.
