Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Underground Treasure Trove, Scene
Xue Hongyi came to the bookcase, and then touched something on the bookcase with his hand. Immediately afterwards, Xue Hongyi didn't see him push it with his hand, and the bookcase moved by itself, and then moved sideways for a distance.
After the bookcase was moved a certain distance, a staircase extending to the ground appeared where the bookcase had been located. After all, this is called an underground treasure trove, and it must always live up to its name.
......
The steps leading to the treasure house spiraled downward, and the two walked round and round.
The further down the light became, the dimmer it became, and seeing this, Ye Changqing casually took out the night pearl and used it for lighting. Although a cultivator's eyesight is very good, if there is no light source at all, it is also a black eye.
When the two of them went down to the last step, Ye Changqing looked up. He estimated that there should be a distance of dozens of zhang from the ground at this time.
Xue Hongyi took two steps forward and found that Ye Changqing didn't follow, so he greeted him: "Brother Ye, what are you looking at?"
"Nothing. Ye Changqing replied. Then he followed.
Not long after walking, the two came to a large underground secret room.
There is only one secret room, but the space is very large, and it is not a problem to stand thousands of people. It's just such a large secret room, but it's empty, and nothing is stored.
Xue Hongyi pointed to the empty secret room and said, "This is the underground treasure house. It's just that because it was exposed, we changed all the treasures to another place. It is now abandoned. ”
Ye Changqing looked around, and then said, "What about the formation? have you already dismantled it?" Ye Changqing didn't see anything except for some traces left over from the arrangement of the formation.
"When the elders arranged the formation, they used a certain treasure in the treasure house as the eye of the formation. Xue Hongyi spread his hands and said, "So after the treasure house is emptied, the formation naturally does not exist." ”
"......" Ye Changqing waved his hand speechlessly, and then began to busy his own affairs.
The walls are made of white marble. Because he had to check the scene carefully, Ye Changqing put away the night pearl, and then pinched the trick with both hands to use pure yang fire.
Then he had a pure yang fire in the four corners of this treasure house, as well as in the places above his head.
The white marble is white, the reflective effect is quite good, and the treasure house instantly lights up.
Xue Hongyi saw Ye Changqing's actions, and he explained: "What was stored here before was treasures, and most of them would glow on their own. So we didn't design this place with the light source in mind. This is our negligence, forgive me!"
Ye Changqing waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care about this.
This entire treasure trove is made of white marble, so it's very smooth. If there are clues, it should be easy to find. But Ye Changqing found nothing.
Are thieves really so good that they don't have a trace left? Ye Changqing didn't believe in this evil.
So Ye Changqing started from the entrance and carefully investigated.
"There is!" Half an hour later, Ye Changqing finally made a discovery.
I saw Ye Changqing kneeling on one knee at this time, looking at a white marble paved ground.
The piece of white marble that Ye Changqing looked at was smooth and there was nothing. But if you look closely, you will find that there is a little dent on this piece of white marble.
Although this dent is very shallow and shallow, it is obvious enough for Ye Changqing.
When Ye Changqing saw this dent for the first time, it was like a lightning bolt appeared in his mind. A thought quickly crossed his mind.
After this thought appeared, Ye Changqing already had some ideas, but the evidence was too little to verify his guess.
Yes, speculation and not speculation.
If you guess, as long as you have a little evidence, you can just guess out of thin air.
But if you speculate, you must have enough evidence as the premise, and then use what you already know to make logical reasoning, deduce what you don't know yet, and then restore the whole picture of the whole thing.
But the problem is now that the evidence is a dent, and it can only be speculation.
But it doesn't matter, Ye Changqing already has some ideas in his heart, as long as he pays more attention in the future, he will be able to find out the thief sooner or later.
Over there, Xue Hongyi walked over after hearing Ye Changqing's voice, and he asked, "Have you found anything?"
"Hmm. Ye Changqing pointed to the shallow marks on the ground and said, "I found this." ”
Xue Hongyi knelt down on one knee and stepped forward to check, and found a shallow dent, he said, "What is this?"
"It's hard to say for the time being. Ye Changqing shook his head and said, "I have a guess, but there are too few clues at the moment, I can't be sure." ”
Ye Changqing got up and patted his clothes: "Let's go, the places that should be checked have already been checked, you can go up." ”
"Oh. Xue Hongyi got up and patted his clothes: "Then let's go." ”
Before leaving, Ye Changqing pinched his hands, and then the pure yang flames that he released were immediately extinguished.
Then he took the Night Pearl out again, and the two of them used the light from the Night Pearl to walk towards the spiraling steps.
The two returned to the study, Xue Hongyi stepped forward and touched something again, and then the bookcase automatically returned to its original position, as if it had never moved.
After putting the bookcase back in place, Xue Hongyi turned to Ye Changqing and said, "Since there are too few clues now, what should we do next?"
And so on. Ye Changqing said: "There are too few clues now, then we will wait, as long as the thief continues to move, then we can find out the thief." ”
"At the moment, it seems that this is the only way to go. Xue Hongyi spread his hands and said.
"I'm sure I'm going to wait, but I'm not going to just wait, it's too passive. Ye Changqing said: "I already have some ideas, but the evidence left by the thieves is too little to be convincing." So I'm going to look for evidence on my own based on my guesses. ”
"Oh?" Xue Hongyi said, "Do you need my help...... No, do you need me to go with you? ”
"No, I don't. Ye Changqing shook his head and refused: "The martial arts competition is about to start, and the Star Picking Pavilion is now the time when you need you, so it's good for you to stay in the Star Picking Pavilion to preside over the overall situation." ”
Ye Changqing said: "Besides, my next direction of action may not be correct, so far this is just a guess of mine." Maybe it's going to be nothing, so you might as well stay, you're needed here. ”
“...... Okay then!" Xue Hongyi solemnly bowed his hand, and then said, "Brother Ye, if you need anything, just mention it to me." I can do what I can. Even if I can't do it, I'll find a way to do it. ”
......
