Chapter 437: The Mechanism of the Luminous Ball

Bai Qi jumped into the palace, he hid himself in the night, leaning against the palace wall and quickly approaching the cold palace. Somewhere else, a dim light flickered from time to time, and after an ancient bell rang slowly, the palace fell into a deathly silence.

Bai Qi paused in the shadows for a moment, and listened carefully with his keen ears, and he judged that the so-called cold palace in front of everyone was feared.

Bai Qi raised his legs lightly and slowly walked towards the cold palace. His eyes looked around him with alarm. Suddenly, a wild cat barked, Bai Qi hurriedly squatted down and looked around, about a hundred meters in front of him, two people came out, and one of them muttered in a low voice: "Damn, where did the owl come from, it barks so badly." The other person looked around and said, "Big brother, my eyelids are always jumping today, do you think something is going to happen?"

The man said: "Don't talk nonsense, eyelid jumping is to stay up all night, where are there so many disasters, besides, even if there is a disaster, it will not happen to us, this cold palace is the most deserted and vicious place in the palace, even if there are wild ghosts coming, they are scared away." The other person thought for a while and said, "That's right, who has nothing to do here, there is nothing of value in the cold palace except for the Lotus Queen." Cleaner than a rabbit hole. The person next to him sighed and said: "It's a pity, the queen was originally very kind and kind to us scary people, but it's a pity, I don't know when she offended the emperor and was sent to the cold palace." "Perhaps, one day the emperor will let her go as soon as he is happy, for so many years, the queen has to come to the cold palace three or four times. It's really hard to be a queen. ”

At this time, someone behind these two people said: "You two stand guard well, don't talk nonsense, be careful that the emperor cuts off your mouth." The two men quickly shut up and turned around and walked towards the cold palace.

After several people had entered a gate, Bai Qi stood up and walked towards the gate of the cold palace with a little starlight. The dim light came from there, and as soon as the flames flickered, Bai Qi's heart jumped and jumped. When he came to the door of Lenggong Xue, Bai Qi looked inside through a crack in the door, and there were five or six guards standing guard by the gate. There was also a large bed next to it, on which five or six guards were sleeping.

Bai Qi took out a packet of medicine from his arms, and he blew it inside hard along the crack in the door, and the guards inside yawned unconsciously, causing them to fall asleep on the ground one by one.

Bai Qi quietly used a short sword he carried with him to open the latch of the door, and then Bai Qi gently opened the door, as soon as he raised his foot and walked inside, he saw dozens of cold lights flying towards him, Bai Yi quickly flashed to the side, dodging the cold light, who knew that his hand inadvertently touched the door, and the gate was like a huge mountain pressed down.

Bai Qi hurriedly jumped forward, dodging the gate, and as soon as his feet hit the ground, a gap suddenly cracked underneath, and Bai Qi fell down. He chuckled in his heart, only to remember that the cold palace was laid with layers of organs, and if he didn't make the wrong move, he would lose everything, but he knew that he couldn't lose, the queen was waiting for someone to save him, and the prince and Leng Ye outside the palace were expecting the queen to escape from the cold palace unharmed, if he failed, not only could he not save the queen, but also harmed the queen. Thinking was just a momentary thought, and he had to act immediately.

Bai Qi rolled over and began to fly towards the gap where he had just fallen, but the gap was almost coming together. It was too late for Bai Qi to get out, so he hurriedly waved his hand and inserted the sword into the slit. Bai Qi used all his strength to slash the sword to the left and right, and the gap cracked again, and Bai Qi took the opportunity to fly out.

Bai Qi's feet stood firm on the ground, he didn't dare to rush forward, he looked around carefully, there was a door not far ahead, there was a stone pillar on each side of the door, and there was a crystal luminous ball on each of them, emitting two dark green lights in the dark night.

Bai Qi judged that this door was a passage leading to the inside of the Cold Palace. He walked cautiously towards the door. As soon as he took a few steps, he heard a gabba behind him, Bai Qi was so frightened that he hurriedly looked back, a cold light shot towards him, he hurriedly slashed towards the cold light with his sword, a spark burst out, and the cold light disappeared. Bai Qi turned around and continued to walk forward, just took a few steps, he heard a strange sound, he turned around, and saw a cold light on the left and right and behind him hitting his vital point, Bai Qi guessed that he must have touched the mechanism under his feet, he quickly squatted down, the sword in his hand slashed in mid-air, clanged a few times, and the hidden weapon fell to the ground. Bai Qi was also shocked into a cold sweat.

He didn't dare to take a rash step, and by the luster of the luminous beads, he saw that there were two colored stones on the ground, and the one he was stepping on at this time was white, so it can be seen that the white stone is safe, and there is a mechanism under the black stone. Bai Qi cautiously jumped forward and came to the gate.

There was a deadbolt on the door, Bai Qi didn't dare to act rashly, he used his sword to try to move the deadbolt, the tip of the sword just touched the deadbolt, suddenly there was a loud bang, the door opened, and it was pitch black inside, followed by a rain of arrows shooting towards Bai Volley, Bai Qi was glad that he had prepared in advance. His light skills are the most famous in the rivers and lakes. With a little wind he could float in mid-air for a quarter of an hour.

After the rain of arrows passed, Bai Qi just wanted to go in, and the door slammed shut. He stirred the deadbolt with his sword, and the door did not move. Even though Bai Qi pushed the door hard, there was no reaction.

Bai Qi looked left and right, and the luminous beads on the stone pillar turned from green to light blue at this time, and the color was still gradually fading.

Bai Qi was worried, at this time, the bell rang not far away, he judged that the time was about ugly, if he didn't hurry up, I am afraid it would be difficult to rescue the queen, if I can't save the queen today, I am afraid that the queen will have difficulties in the future.

Bai Qi watched the luminous ball continue to change, and at this time he had already heard dense footsteps walking towards the cold palace. Bai Qi knew that he had alarmed the palace guards. He had to hold on tightly.

Bai Qi remembered that when the master was designing the mechanism in the cold palace, he once set the general organ in the safest and most exposed place, which was both unexpected and easy for people to see. The simplest is the most complicated. The mystery must be in these two luminous balls.

Bai Qi looked at the two luminous balls on the left and right, he guessed which one was the button that touched the general mechanism, and which one was the button that cracked all the mechanisms, once the judgment was wrong, the entire cold palace would be destroyed, and the queen would die.

The luminous ball on the stone pillar on the left is constantly darkening in color, gradually changing from green to dark green, then to purple, and then to light blue to the right, then to white, and then slowly returning to light green, and the cycle changes regularly.

Bai Qi heard footsteps getting closer and closer, and there was not a word to speak, he knew that there was going to be a big fight in the palace, and he had to end his stay here as much as possible to stop a bloody crime.

Bai Qi raised his sword and threw himself at the light blue luminous ball on his right.
