Putting this matter aside for the time being, my father said that we can continue to act, and we don't have to let this matter affect our plans. ”

Jiang Ling chose to avoid this question, he didn't think it would be any good for Guo Chen to know the answer to this question, and he didn't know the answer to this question either.

After answering the question, he turned his head and glanced at Jiang Xueyan, he didn't know why Jiang Xueyan would open his mouth at this time and say this.

Jiang Ling is a smart person, Guo Chen understood Jiang Xueyan's hint, and he naturally thought of this level, but he couldn't find any reason, so he could only be suspicious.

It is well known that Jiang Xueyan has no good impression of the royal family, but in Jiang Ling's opinion, it has not yet reached the point of betraying the royal family in order to help outsiders.

In fact, strictly speaking, this matter is far from being betrayed, after all, this is not the first time that a minister has discussed a matter, and they may have noticed.

"Okay, then we're almost ready to go, I'll tell you in detail on the way how to find it. ”

Guo Chen thought about it for a night, of course, it was impossible to think about where the entrance to the underground palace was, what he was thinking about was how to make himself more likely to enter the underground palace first when Jiangling couldn't detect it.

This is really difficult, after all, the information they know is all obtained from him and Jiang Xueyan, which means that he also knows this, so he is willing to find a position with a relatively small possibility, how can he be willing?

Of course, there are no absolutes, otherwise Guo Chen would not have thought about it for a night, and after a night, he still came up with a way that Jiangling might agree to, and said it on the way to the palace.

"I think so, there are five of us here this time, and you should be the most familiar with the terrain of the palace, so you are responsible for observing the progress of the four of us, and you are responsible for eliminating it. ”

He said so, the five people who came this time were him, Shen Xuan, Jiang Ling, Jiang Xueyan and Ning Zhi, Ling Yunhao chose to stay and cultivate because he was very close to the breakthrough.

As for Guan Ying, her own ability is not suitable for indoor or underground use, and it is useless to go with her, it is better to stay and cultivate, so maybe it will be of some use in a few days.

What she is cultivating now is her physical body, and according to her current spiritual power level, she will be able to have some combat ability in a few days.

"Of the five of us, you are the only one who has written down the blueprints of the palace, and you are familiar with the palace, so you need to move around the palace all the time, and keep an eye on our progress to eliminate the locations we have searched. ”

Guo Chen's suggestion is really good, although the palace is very large, there are many places where it is unlikely to hide the underground palace, so there are only a few locations they need to focus on.

But they weren't sure there were any other places, so they had to search the entire palace.

In the process, Gangneung, who is familiar with the Imperial Palace and knows the structure, can move through the Imperial City all over again, eliminating them according to the places they have found, and narrowing down the possible scope through their own understanding.

This saves time to the greatest extent, and at first glance Gangneung has no reason to refuse, but the only drawback of this method is that the person in charge of the exclusion will definitely not be the first to discover the entrance.

Jiang Ling, such a smart person, of course, realized it at the first time, but the problem is that what Guo Chen said is indeed a good way, and he has no reason to refuse.

At this time, Ning Zhi on the side opened his mouth and asked: "But in this case, it is impossible for Jiangling to be the first to discover the underground palace, will you want to swallow the treasures in the underground palace alone?"

As soon as these words came out, Jiang Ling was almost scared to death, good guy, when did Ning Zhi become so smart?

In Jiang Ling's impression, it was impossible for Ning Zhi to think of this, so he looked at Jiang Xueyan, and Jiang Xueyan was the only one who might have given Ning Zhi a hint just now.

Jiang Xueyan met his gaze and immediately turned her head, it was this action that made him conclude that Jiang Xueyan had prompted Ning Zhi just now, and this action of not going overboard was just not wanting to say it explicitly.

Jiang Xueyan doesn't have a good impression of the royal family, and of course she doesn't like him much as an older brother, so it's not the first time that she often helps him through Ning Zhi like this.

Thinking of this, the corners of Jiang Ling's mouth raised slightly, it turned out that his sister still cared about him, so she would not betray the royal family, but he didn't know that these were all arranged by Guo Chen.

Guo Chen had already seen that he might be suspicious of Jiang Xueyan, so he deliberately asked Jiang Xueyan to stand up and do such a thing, of course, the premise of all this is that it will not affect the result.

"So, you don't believe us, if that's the case, then I'm sorry, we can't continue to look for the dungeon, we're just outsiders after all. ”

He stopped, and then said such a thing, Jiang Ling immediately panicked, looking at this situation, it seems that they don't plan to continue to help, so how can it?

"Don't be angry, you know that he doesn't think comprehensively, don't be like him, just follow what you just said. ”

Jiang Ling directly agreed to the suggestion he put forward, putting aside the question raised by Ning Zhi just now, this is really a good way.

Ning Zhi carried a black cauldron for no reason, and then they arrived at the entrance of the palace, unlike when they entered the imperial city, this time they did not go in directly, but were carefully examined.

After all, the palace is the residence of the emperor, and security issues still need to be taken seriously, even Jiang Ling and Jiang Xueyan must be checked, after all, no one can guarantee that they will not seek power and usurp the throne.

There is only one person in the entire continent who can enter the palace without being checked, and that is Ning Yuan, who has been following Jiang Hanhai all along.

If Ning Yuan wanted to do it, would he have to wait until now?

"Okay, so let's work in pairs, Shen Xuan and I will find the west side of the palace together, Xue Yan, you and Ning Zhi will go east together, and if there is any situation, we will immediately find a way to report to Jiangling. ”

As he spoke, he raised his hand and patted Gangneung's forehead, and the guards on one side almost came up to arrest him, but Gangneung raised his hand to stop them.

Gangneung knew that he would not harm himself, this should be the kind of communication used in the old city, and this method was indeed useful.

"When the time comes, we will contact through this, and your royal family should have their own contact information, right?"

He grouped them into groups like this because he took this situation into account, so that they had no reason or way to refuse, of course, he had long known that the royal family could contact each other.

With Jiang Xueyan as an undercover agent with high power in the royal family, he can really solve a lot of troublesome things.

Since they couldn't find a reason to refuse, of course, they could only agree, and then the five of them began to look for the entrance to the underground palace in the palace.

He and Shen Xuan first walked around for a while, and then he dragged Shen Xuan in one direction, looking like that, it seemed that he already knew where to go.

Shen Xuan quickly reacted and asked through the rune he had left for himself, "Do you know where the entrance to the dungeon is?"

"I don't know, but I've got a possibility, and now we're going to make sure. ”

He shook his head, indicating that he was not sure if it was true, and at the same time had already let go of Shen Xuan.

Then, without waiting for Shen Xuan to open his mouth to ask, he began to explain by himself, saying: "If according to what Jiang Ling said before, the first emperor is a person with no merits, how can he become the emperor of the mainland?"

Shen Xuan said impatiently: "Speak directly, don't engage in these useless things, you know I can't guess." ”

This made him a little embarrassed, and he could only accept his fate and say his guess.

"Suppose he has a gifted friend who helps him get rid of most of his rivals, and allows him to show great wisdom in front of the previous emperor, he may succeed in inheriting the throne. ”

As soon as these words came out, Shen Xuan was directly stunned, if he insisted on saying this, it would be reasonable, but the problem was that if this was the case, Jiang Ling should not say that he was useless!

"Perhaps soon after he succeeded to the throne, the man who had been assisting him died by some accident, because the continent was in a peaceful era at that time, so no one discovered what he was capable of before he succeeded to the throne, so that all the mysteries can be explained. ”

Roughly calculated, when the first emperor succeeded to the throne, it was not long after the opening of the secret realm of Lindao a hundred years ago, and before the crusade war twenty years ago, it was a real era of peace.

During this time, the Nightmare Clan has not been able to make any waves, and the evil alliance has not yet developed, and there are almost no wars, so this is also reasonable.

"According to what you say, if this underground palace was built for the former emperor, then it is very likely that it will be built next to that person, I remember that the place where he lived before he succeeded to the throne was to the west of the palace hall, right?"

Shen Xuan had already understood that this story was actually not complicated, that is, the prince became the emperor with the help of a person, and this person died for some reason, and the emperor wanted to bury himself next to her in order to commemorate her.

There is nothing wrong with the story itself, but it is only a possibility, and it is impossible to verify it from nearly a hundred years ago.

But none of that mattered, anyway, they just had to go there and see it, whether it was the right answer or not, they had to go there and see, just a little bit further up.

The speed of the two was not slow, and they soon came to the residence of the former emperor, which was the most humble palace in the palace.

Although the area is often cleaned, it has never been inhabited, and it is said that the emperor strictly forbade people to live here.

Because of this, Jiang Hanhai sent people to search here more than once to see if he could find the entrance to the secret room, but the result was that nothing was found.

The two of them entered the residence and did not rush to search, what if there were any traps here?

Guo Chen opened the pupil of nightmare and began to check the situation nearby, although he did not have the ability to see, but he opened the spirit pupil, and his vision improved for sure.

He carefully inspected the whole room, did not miss a corner, and even checked the ceiling carefully, but still could not find the entrance to the dungeon.

After confirming that he had not found the entrance to the dungeon, he said, "It shouldn't be, could it be that I thought wrong?"

"Surely there's something you didn't tell me, what the hell?"

After hearing his words, Shen Xuan came out coldly and stared at him, waiting for him to reply.

"You've seen through it, and sure enough, you're still the one who knows me best. ”

He said this with a smile, he did have something to hide from him, and that was the main reason that made him think of the possibility before.

He had seen this room in the underground ruins of the Old City Auction House!
