Xiao Shu was hesitating to go to the other passages to see where they led, when he saw Ye Shuying walking out of one of the passages with a candle in his hand.

Ye Shuying glanced at Xiao Shu and said, "You're here." I found something to illuminate. As he spoke, he took out a candle from his bosom, lit it and handed it to Xiao Shu, lit a few more candles, and inserted them in some intact candlesticks before hurrying to another passage.

Xiao Shu hurriedly followed and asked, "What did you find?"

Ye Shuying said: "In addition to the passage we came out of, I walked the two passages on the left side of the throne, one of which is also a cave at the end, there are six stone gates, behind the stone gate are four bedrooms and two study, there is a secret room in the bedroom, and there are many precious calligraphy and paintings in the study and secret room. Another passage led to several warehouses, where almost everything was found, where the fire sickle and candles were found, and a lot of food, but it was all broken, and I thought there were a few jars of good wine, but unfortunately the jars were empty. ”

It turned out that after he came ashore from the water, he was also taken aback by the development of this mysterious place, so he began to explore the passage on the left side of the throne.

Xiao Shu smiled: "There are pools, warehouses, bedrooms, and food, it seems that the owner here is going to live here for a long time." I just don't know what kind of place this is, who the owner is, and why there are so many corpses. ”

As they spoke, the two of them each struck on a stone wall, listening to the sound to discern whether there was a hole behind the stone wall, and at the same time looking for a switch button on the stone wall.

A moment later, Ye Shuying and Xiao Shu found buttons on two stone walls at the same time, and the two turned around at the same time to stop each other, but found that each other had found the button, only looked at each other and smiled, and then pressed the switch.

There was a loud "boom", and a stone door on each side of the stone wall was moved to the side, and behind the stone door was a boxy stone room.

There are dozens of blades hanging on the stone wall of the stone room that Ye Shuying opened, including knives, swords, whips, spears, hooks, forks and other common weapons, and there are more than a dozen that Ye Shuying has never seen and can't name. Ye Shuying looked casually, walked to the stone room and knocked on the stone wall, checked the candlestick, and found that there was a mechanism under one of the candlesticks, twisted the mechanism, and another stone door opened, behind the stone door was a small stone room, there was a stone table and four stone frames in the room, two of which were empty, and the other two were placed with a sword and a knife, but there was a dragon-shaped golden whip on the stone table.

Ye Shuying stroked the dragon-shaped golden whip lightly, and said in his heart: "This dragon-shaped whip has anti-scales all over the body, which can not only stick to people's blades, so that the opponent's blades can get rid of their hands, but also stick to hidden weapons; dragon horns can be used to make all kinds of soft blades; this open dragon mouth and straight dragon tongue must also be useful......

Ye Shuying turned around and pulled out the sword on the stone frame, only to hear the sound of "Qiang Chang", the sword made a dragon chant, and Sen Sen's sword qi came straight to him. He couldn't help but lightly slash at the stone frame where Chen Fang put his sword, and the stone frame broke into two pieces like tofu.

Ye Shuying praised: "Good sword!" Inserting the sword back into the sheath, holding it in his hand, he continued to grope and check in this stone room, and then did not find the mechanism button and the secret passage in the mezzanine of the secret room, so he retreated.

The stone room that Xiao Shu entered was indeed full of soft weapons, such as three-section sticks, nine-section whips, snake-shaped soft whips, chain guns, meteor hammers, double flying claws, dust, beads, and dragon whisker hooks...... Xiao Shu looked casually, but he was not interested, so he looked for the hidden grid and button on the stone wall, and also found the button under a candlestick to open another small secret room.

There are several stone cases in this secret room, and the three stone cases on the left side are placed with various hidden weapons, javelins, darts, throwing knives, jujube core nails, thistles, plum blossom needles, bone penetrating needles, finger swords, and stabbing ...... There are also two metal cylinders and several strange objects with metal casings. The two stone tables on the right are dozens of small jars of all kinds.

Xiao Shu walked to the stone case where the hidden weapon was placed, picked up one of the cylinders, looked at it carefully, and saw that there were three circles of more than 20 fine holes at one end, and a small button next to the handle at the other end. He was curious, put one end of the cylinder hole against the stone wall, pressed the button, only to hear a "whoosh" sound, more than 20 small steel needles shot out like a dense rain, all nailed to the stone wall, there was a burst of fishy smell, obviously the poison needles are highly poisonous.

Xiao Shuyan said: "If this kind of secret weapon is launched at a person, who in the world can avoid it?"

He put down the cylinder, and no longer touched the other hidden weapons, walked to another stone case, picked up a small ceramic bottle, pulled out the cork and shook it, although he didn't smell anything, he was dizzy for a while, and he didn't know what kind of poison it was. He hurriedly plugged the stopper, put the bottle back in its place, and looked at the stone walls around the secret room, and found no more abnormalities, before exiting the secret room and the stone house.

At this time, Ye Shuying had also withdrawn from the stone room, handed over the sword, and said, "Here you go, you may like this sword." There are weapons in the stone house on my side, what are you on your side?"

Xiao Shu took the sword and said, "Soft weapons, hidden weapons and poisons." As he spoke, he pulled out the sword three inches, only to see the cold light shining and the cold air pressing, Xiao Shu said: "Yes, thank you." ”

The two of them explored further, and soon came to a karst cave, the bottom of which was relatively flat, and it seemed that the stalactites protruding from the ground had been destroyed, and even the upside-down stalagmites were very few, except for a few candlesticks, there were not many traces of artificial carving.

Ye Shuying said: "It's like a place to practice martial arts. The two of them looked separately and found nothing unusual, and then walked back to the large cave along the passage.

Now the three passages on the left side of the throne have been explored, and next to it is the huge rock that is more than two zhang high and one zhang wide opposite the throne.

The boulder stood almost seamlessly from the stone walls on both sides, as if it had been cut from the entire stone wall.

Ye Shuying and Xiao Shu stood in front of the boulder, looked carefully, but found that there were some scratches on the boulder, which did not look like they were caused by a fight, but as if someone deliberately carved them.

Xiao Shu approached the boulder, raised his hand to wipe the dust on it, and found that there were a total of thirteen drawings, each of which was two sword-dancing villains. On closer inspection, some of these drawings are in groups of three, and some are in groups of two, showing some martial arts moves.

The two of them raised their eyes to look at the top three pictures, the villain on the left in the first two pictures danced a wonderful move to stab the villain on the right, which is actually two styles in one move, and each style seems to imply five or six changes, at first glance, no matter which style is played, the villain on the right is difficult to resist.

Ye Shuying and Xiao Shu saw it, they were both surprised and admired, and secretly admired the swordsmanship and intelligence of the person who created this move.

The two glanced at each other, and couldn't help but pinch their right hands into sword fingers and gesture.

After a while, the two of them looked at the third picture, and when they saw it, they couldn't help but be surprised and panicked. It turns out that this third picture is of the villain on the right side cracking the first two formulas with one move. His move doesn't seem complicated, but it has endless momentum, and it seems to hide eight or nine changes, no matter how the villain's move on the left changes, it can be cracked.

Ye Shuying said: "Let's try, I'll make the previous moves, you can break them." ”

Xiao Shu nodded, the two of them pinched out their sword fingers at the same time, and compared with each other, Ye Shuying made the move of the villain on the left, and Xiao Shuying made the villain on the right crack method, and after trying it, Ye Shuying was shocked into a cold sweat. He tried more than ten changes in one move and two times, but Xiao Shu was easily broken, and Xiao Shu took advantage of the situation to change, and instantly turned against the customer, straight to his throat.

If Xiao Shu has a blade in his hand, although Ye Shuying can dodge a fatal blow, he must be injured, if the opponent is an enemy with a slightly higher martial arts, he must die.

The two of them looked at the groups of pictures behind them, and it turned out that the person on the left used a wonderful move that they had never seen before, and in the end, they were cleverly cracked by the villain on the right, which was really amazing.

Ye Shuying and Xiao Shu compared the five moves on the rock and the method of cracking, and after mastering them all, they walked to the third passage on the right side of the throne, and went straight to the end of the passage to find a stone gate, only to see that the stone wall on the left side of the stone gate was embedded with four rows, five columns, and twenty square stone slabs, each stone slab was engraved with a different pattern, and the twenty pieces were put together to be a complete landscape map. The twenty slabs were covered with crossbow arrows and steel pins, some of which were stuck straight into the stone wall on the right.

Xiao Shu looked at the stone gate and the twenty stone slabs on the stone wall, pondered for a moment, and suddenly had a happy face, and said, "This should be a puzzle mechanism, and it has been cracked." ”

He got acquainted with Zhou Yueyang a year ago, and learned the mechanism and theft art in Feisha Village for a period of time, although it is not as good as Dongfang Min, Lazy Dragon and other big thieves, but it is also a small achievement, and ordinary organs can also see through it.

Ye Shuying took a look and said, "As far as I know, puzzle mechanisms all need a diagram eye, but the twenty stone slabs on this stone door are neatly arranged, and there are a lot of them, how can it be a puzzle mechanism?"

Xiao Shu smiled slightly, pointed to a stone slab carved with a leaf of light boat in the middle of the third row, and said, "If my guess is correct, this stone slab is moving, and the picture eye is here." ”

Ye Shuying looked at it carefully, suddenly realized, and said: "Yes, this slate is really different from other places, the whole painting is inscribed, but the boat on this slate is embossed. ”

Xiao Shu said and raised his hand to press on the stone slab, only to hear a sound of the mechanism starting, and the stone door "boom", it rose up, revealing a spacious stone room. It's just that this stone room is empty, there is nothing, not even a candlestick, only a painting is carved on the stone wall facing the stone gate, the picture is three or four zhang long, eight or nine feet high, and the right side is engraved with three big characters of "Tongtian Tu".

The scene in this "Picture of the Heavenly Passage" is vast, the characters are close to the size of the real person, lifelike, there are thirty or forty immortals who descend from the sky, marching in formation, the posture is rich and beautiful, although the picture is quiet but wants to move, the sleeves are streamers, the flags are circulating, staggered and whirling, the real clothes are flying, the walls are full of wind; the room is silent but also seems to have sound, making people feel as if all kinds of musical instruments in the picture are emitting a kind of harmonious music, melodious in the air.

Ye Shuying and Xiao Shu looked at the beautiful shape and vivid posture, the king with beards and temples, and the fairy who was fluttering, only to feel that the scenes in the picture were about to come out, and people couldn't help but touch the strong and bright lines on the wall with their hands.

Ye Shuying saw that there was a fairy on the stone wall whose face and posture were six or seven points similar to Shen Yuhong, and thought of Shen Yuhong, and wondered if she had forgiven herself, so her fingertips unconsciously stroked the forehead and cheeks of the portrait, and when she touched her eyes, she found that the fairy's eyes were actually moving, he instantly touched a snake and scorpion, and hurriedly withdrew his hand and jumped back, shouting: "Xiao Shu, retreat!"

I only heard a soft sound of "click" at the stone wall, and suddenly the sound of arrow feathers breaking through the air in the stone room was loud, and the crossbow arrows were shot in all directions, and some shot to the surrounding stone walls to "aggressively", or flew straight or obliquely shot, and it was endless for a long time.

Ye Shuying and Xiao Shu dodged sideways for a while, and retreated outside the stone gate, until the sound in the stone room completely stopped, and no more arrow feathers were shot, and then they returned to the stone room. This time, the two of them were more careful, walked to the stone wall carved with immortals, and then carefully observed the portraits on the stone wall, and found that the lines carved on the eyes of all the characters on the wall were deeper than those elsewhere, and they seemed to be movable.

Ye Shuying picked up three arrow feathers from the ground and said, "I'll try again." Xiao Shu understood, and retreated to the stone gate with him, Ye Shuying threw the arrow feather with his hand, hitting the eyes of three different people, and the stone wall shot the arrow feather like a dark cloud and rain in an instant, and it stopped for a long time.

Xiao Shu couldn't help but sigh: "What a powerful mechanism." When the sound in the room had completely stopped, he stood at the doorway and watched the stone wall from afar. Ye Shuying knew that this stone wall was extraordinary, and there must be secrets, so he also pondered with his cheeks back, pacing back and forth in the stone room, muttering to himself: "Tongtian map, Tongtian, why is it called Tongtian map...... Could it be that behind this stone wall is an exit......?

After thinking for a while, Ye Shuying retreated to the stone gate again, looking at the characters and layout in the whole picture from a distance, looking at it for a while, only to feel that this picture was a little familiar, and then thought about it carefully, and suddenly clapped his legs and shouted: "By the way, it's that picture...... Wait for me for a moment. After saying that, he turned around and hurriedly walked out of the passage.

Xiao Shu was still thinking hard, and when Ye Shuying returned to this stone room a moment later, he already had an extra roll of yellow silk in his hand, and said: "Xiao Shu, come and see, this is what I accidentally saw in the study over there before, and it turns out that the picture on this stone wall is from this picture scroll." ”

Xiao Shu walked over and unfolded the scroll, and saw that it was a handscroll of anonymous white figures about one zhang long and one foot wide, with seventy or eighty figures on it, and compared with the picture on the stone wall, he found that the characters carved on the stone wall were all from this scroll, but the position had changed, and the layout had completely changed.

Xiao Shu said: "But I still can't figure out how to crack the mechanism on this stone wall." ”

Ye Shuying put the candle close to the stone wall, carefully observed the lines on the stone wall, found the position of each character in the original picture, and then compared it to twenty-five or sixteen, but found that except for the difference in the overall layout, each figure was no different from the original picture. Ye Shuying was about to give up, but Xiao Shu suddenly shouted, "Look here!"

Ye Shuying turned around and saw Xiao Shu staring at the hand of a Heavenly King on the stone wall, and also looked at that hand, and found that the Heavenly King's raised right hand actually had an eye.

Ye Shuying hurriedly checked the original map and found the location of this heavenly king, but found that there was no such eye in the original picture, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said: "I understand, it turned out to be 'hand and eye to the sky'! ”

Xiao Shu nodded and said, "If it is clumsy, in this case, the simpler it is, the more unexpected it is. Back off. As he spoke, he picked up a crossbow arrow and squeezed it in his hand, and retreated to the stone gate step by step.

Ye Shuying retreated outside the stone gate, and Xiao Shu threw the dark crossbow arrow, hit the eye, and also dodged behind the stone gate.

I only heard a clear sound of "click", and there was a sound of mechanism activation behind the stone wall, and the rumbling sound was endless, but this time there was no hidden weapon shooting. After a while, the sound stopped, and the two of them waited patiently for a while, and seeing that there was no more movement, Xiao Shucai exclaimed excitedly: "It seems that this time the mechanism is broken." Then the two of them entered the stone chamber again. Sure enough, the stone wall facing the stone gate had been completely raised, and behind the original stone wall was another stone chamber, in which only a large unlocked box was displayed.

Ye Shuying and Xiao Shu walked to the front of the box excitedly, glanced at each other, and reached out to open the wooden box at the same time.

Behind such an ingenious mechanism, there is only such a chest in such a secret stone room, which must be a very precious thing, even something that ordinary people can't even think of.

The lid of the wooden box is lifted. Ye Shuying and Xiao Shu were stunned for a while, looked at each other, Xiao Shu's hand was loosened, and the whole box was kicked under the corner of the wall with one kick, and the box was impacted, and it suddenly fell apart, and a rusty copper lock fell out. Ye Shuying laughed.

Xiao Shu glared at him and said, "What's so funny about this!"

Ye Shuying said with a smile: "Since this is a joke, why don't I laugh, do you want to make me cry?" Since the mechanism outside this stone room was broken before we arrived, naturally someone took the first step and took away the treasures in this secret room, why do you need to be angry?"

It turned out that the wooden box contained nothing more than a lock, the lock that had locked the box in the first place. And the man who took the contents of the box, put the lock in the box and played a joke on them.

Xiao Shu said: "Who said I was angry? I just wanted to see if there was a mezzanine in this box, but now it seems that there is none." ”

Ye Shuying looked around with a smile, but saw that there was nothing in the entire spacious secret room except for the empty box. Candelabras, frescoes, mezzanines, secret passages, nothing, just dust all over the floor.

The two of them carefully examined the stone wall up and down, left and right, but still found nothing.

Through the sky, through the sky, through the sky, what kind of heaven is the door! Could it be that the contents of that box are treasures that can make people have the power to reach the sky? Ye Shuying really couldn't figure out what exactly was originally in the box.

With such an ingenious mechanism and such a spacious secret room, is there only such a chest and a room full of dust!

Ye Shuying shook her head helplessly and said, "Let's go, let's go to the last passage and have a look." ”
