Chapter 699: No One Asks You
Following the voice, Gu Yuan walked out of the cloakroom and came to the master bedroom.
It looks just as neat and orderly, the pearl-white bed frame still looks shiny, and you can only feel the frosted dust when you stretch out your fingers to brush over it.
At the foot of the bed, there is also a bedside stool of the same color.
In the corner of the wall, there was a dresser that was also pearl white, and the things on the dresser were also neatly arranged, and the mirror was already covered with a layer of dust.
Gu Yuan still hadn't figured out how long this place hadn't been cleaned, and from his intuitive feelings, this place had not been inhabited for three to five months at most, and judging from the display and style of the house, it would have to be at least one or two hundred years apart.
"What's wrong?" Gu Yuan glanced at Shen Shuyang, who was making a movement just now, and asked, "What is the clue you just said?" ”
Shen Shuyang smiled mysteriously and said, "It's so boring for me to say it, you can observe it first!" ”
"Okay, don't sell it, time is precious to us." Chang Yi didn't give him face at all, pointed to the dresser, and said, "Under that dresser, there is a hidden compartment that seems to have something in it, but we haven't taken it out yet." ”
"Oh?" Gu Yuan looked at Shen Shuyang and said, "Why not?" I mean, why not take it out? ”
"Isn't it too late! I just fumbled around, and the dark grid seems to be inlaid with a mortise and tenon structure, and if you want to open the dark grid, you may have to turn the dresser over first. Shen Shuyang shrugged his shoulders and said.
Well, it does sound like a technical job, if you can take it out casually, Shen Shuyang may have taken it out before.
"I'll help you!" Xun Kaihe immediately walked to him, and with his own strength, he turned the dresser over, but this dresser and the dressing mirror are not a whole, so when Xun Kaihe moved the dresser away, the mirror immediately fell down.
Fortunately, Luo Yi's eyes were quick and he held him in time.
"Thank you!" Xun Kaihe smiled at Luo Yi.
Luo Yi just nodded and leaned the vanity mirror against the wall.
After turning the dresser over, Gu Yuan observed it and found that it was indeed a bit troublesome, but fortunately, Xun Kaihe seemed to know quite a bit about it, and quickly found the ingenuity. He first pulled out a wooden strip from it, then pushed the main body of the dark grid backwards along the guide rail of the inner groove of the dresser, and pulled out a small wooden stopper, which completely separated the dark grid.
"Oh yes! Solved so quickly? Shen Shuyang praised it.
Xun Kaihe looked like an honest man, and he scratched his head a little embarrassed when he was praised like this.
"Actually, it's nothing rare, I've always liked the mortise and tenon craftsmanship inherited from our Great Xia Kingdom, and I have studied more on weekdays, which is relatively simple."
Chang Yi urged on the side: "Let's see what is hidden in this secret compartment first." ”
As the first discoverer, Shen Shuyang took it upon himself to stretch out his hand and pull out the dark grid, but it turned out to be a key inside, glowing with a metallic luster under the light.
"What is this?" Shen Shuyang turned his face to look at Gu Yuan.
Gu Yuan shook his head, how could he have an answer!
"Forget it, anyway, now that the props have been opened, the key has appeared, will the door be far away?" Shen Shuyang turned around and threw the key to Gu Yuan.
Gu Yuan looked at him with some surprise.
"Why give it to me?"
"I'm afraid that if I put it away, others will think I'm a cunning villain." Shen Shuyang said with a smile.
Gu Yuan couldn't laugh or cry.
What kind of logic is this!
"Anyway, I don't know what this key is for, I'll leave it to you for safekeeping, I think it's safer, besides, look at it, in fact, everyone still trusts you very much." Shen Shuyang said.
Gu Yuan felt that Shen Shuyang's words were a bit exaggerated.
The only person who really trusts him may be Luo Yi.
After all, before entering the Three Habitats again, they were already old acquaintances, and besides, Luo Yi's character, Gu Yuan also knew it very well, and it was still very reliable at critical moments.
As for Shen Shuyang and Xun Kaihe, in fact, there is no trust between them and Gu Yuan.
Shen Shuyang wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to form an alliance with Gu Yuan and get some help, while Xun Kaihe was simple-minded, because Gu Yuan had helped him before, so he had a little good feeling.
But this kind of goodwill also has a limit, and it is not enough to make the other party trust Gu Yuan unconditionally.
And Gu Yuan is not a child anymore, so he will not have such unrealistic ideas.
"There's a lot of space here, so let's sleep in this room tonight, the three of you." Gu Yuan looked at Shen Shuyang, Luo Yi and Xun Kaihe, and spoke.
"I don't have a problem with that." Shen Shuyang nodded.
The only thing he was dissatisfied with was Gu Yuan's arrangement, in fact, he still wanted to sleep in the same room with Gu Yuan, but the other party didn't give him this opportunity, but if he thought about it carefully, he could understand Gu Yuan's thoughts, after all, it was not just him, Luo Yi and Xun Kaihe were more willing to be in the same room with Gu Yuan.
At the beginning, Shen Shuyang still thought that Luo Yi and Xun Kaihe were the same as himself, and making such a choice was a recognition of Gu Yuan's strength.
But later, Shen Shuyang thought about it carefully and suddenly found that this was not the case.
This is not so much a recognition of Gu Yuan's strength, but rather that when they get along with Gu Yuan, they will have an inexplicable sense of security, as if Gu Yuan can never be a cunning villain.
Although Shen Shuyang also knew that his thoughts like this were dangerous, after all, he lacked understanding of Gu Yuan, and the more unlikely it was, the more likely it was to happen.
But it can't be helped, after all, it's just a gut feeling!
After searching this room, Gu Yuan and the others planned to go to other rooms.
"I think our speed is still too slow, why don't we split up for the time being?" Gu Yuan said suddenly, "Now, there are two rooms in front of us, and there may be rooms upstairs, let's divide into two teams and search at the same time, try to have a basic understanding of all the rooms here before twelve o'clock, how about it?" ”
Shen Shuyang nodded: "I don't have any opinion, I'll be with you." ”
"Me too!" Xun Kaihe said immediately.
This time, Luo Yi didn't ask to be together, but looked at Li Yunxian and Yi Quqing.
"Let's do it together."
Yi Quqing looked at Luo Yi with some surprise: "Aren't you with Gu Yuan?" ”
"It doesn't matter." Luo Yi frowned.
Chang Yi looked at Gu Yuan and then at Luo Yi without the slightest hesitation.
"We're all in this together!" He said to Luo Yi.
Luo Yi glanced at him and laughed.
"Silly boy, actually, no one asks your opinion at all." After speaking, Luo Yi turned around and walked forward.
Li Yunxian and Yi Quqing also followed.
Chang Yi pursed his lips, looking like he was about to cry angrily every minute.
But even so, he didn't plan to be with Gu Yuan!
"Wait for me ......"
