Chapter Ninety-Eight: Leading the Way Party
The room was large, with a large desk in the middle, and next to the desk was a large bookshelf full of books, and on the west wall was a large bed against the wall, and on all sides of the walls were hung calligraphy and paintings and the fur of some tigers, leopards, jackals, and beasts of prey. Four people one by one wall, Wang Shan searched on the ground, five people gently knocked on the wall, knocked on the ground, if there is a secret passage or space, the sound is different, but to their disappointment, the five people groped for a long time, still found nothing.
Gu Lisha looked at the furnishings in the room, she turned carefully, her brows were tightly locked, she looked at the bed, at the desk, at the bookshelf, and the four of them moved with her body, as if they were looking at her what she could do. Wang Shan's meaning was already very clear, and he went to the queen's room to check. He had always had a hunch that this was the place where the treasure was hidden.
"Brother Wang, Brother Xiao, the three of us, do you want to see what is different about these furnishings? Let's check again. Gu Lisha looked at these three things, bit her lip and lowered her head in thought, and then said. Her eyes seemed to be unwilling to give up, it was indeed not easy to come here, and it was impossible to give up easily.
"Okay, let's check it, Xiao Xiao, you check the bed, I check the desk, and Lao Liu check the bookshelf. Wang Shan looked at Gu Lisha's reluctance, he smiled slightly, and began to search towards the desk. Xiao Ruoshui searched on the bed, and Lao Liu searched the bookshelf.
"Bookshelves are movable, there are no mechanisms. Lao Liu patted the bookshelf manually, and the bookshelf immediately moved. Lao Liu knew that there was no mechanism for ambushing this bookshelf.
"The desk can also be moved, it seems that there is no problem, Xiao Xiao, have you found anything there?" Wang Shan asked towards Xiao Ruoshui.
"Brother Wang, you come and hear what is different here. Xiao Ruoshui waved at everyone and motioned for everyone to come and take a look.
Everyone gathered around, Xiao Ruoshui pushed away the futon and knocked lightly on the bed board, and the sound of "dong dong dong" seemed to disappear into the silence. The sound of Xiao Ruoshui's tapping had no echo, no sound brought, and the sound seemed to have disappeared.
"Lift off the quilt and mattress. Let's find out. Wang Shan seemed to be excited. He looked at Gu Lisha approvingly, Gu Lisha felt his gaze, lowered her head embarrassedly, and her shy face turned a little crimson.
Wang Shan looked at the slippery bed and searched carefully. He touched it slowly with one hand. Suddenly, he touched something like a round handle. Hidden in the carved ornament at the head of the bed, he twisted slightly, and the bed board fell down with a thud. They looked in the direction where the bed had fallen, and a tunnel appeared in front of them.
"Pack your things, let's go down. Wang Shan whispered and then jumped down first, he walked in front with the lamp, and the five people followed down the tunnel in turn, after they walked down the tunnel, Wang Shan pulled a mechanism in the tunnel, the bed board was restored to its original state, only the lamp in Wang Shan's hand in the tunnel flickered slightly, and the deep and long steps led to the distance.
The tunnel is quiet, only the sound of water dripping down occasionally from above can make people feel a trace of vitality, five people holding hands and slowly following Wang Shan's forwarders, gradually the tunnel becomes open, it can accommodate several people in parallel, this tunnel twists and turns, as if there is no end, and passing by a corner, Wang Shan saw a familiar white scratch on the wall, he stopped, looked at the scratch and thought about it, Xiao Ruoshui looked at Wang Shan's expression and asked eagerly: " Could it be that we have turned back to the same place?" the king looked at the white scratches and smiled bitterly and said, "This is a labyrinth, we have entered a labyrinth from the beginning of walking to an open place, and it is difficult for us to get out of this labyrinth without someone to guide us. When Gu Lisha heard what Wang Shan said, she immediately asked, "Can't we go back and go again?"
"No, we're in the middle of the maze now, and we can't find the right way even if we walk back, so it's better not to go. Wang Shan looked at the scratches and said firmly.
"It seems that the treasure of this khan is well hidden, if only there was an old horse. Lao Liu complained and said.
"What can the old horse do here, you just talk nonsense. Du Danian choked Lao Liu, and he said something to Lao Liu angrily.
"At first glance, you are uneducated, the old horse knows the way, and you will never get lost if you find an old horse. Lao Liu said sarcastically at Du Danian. The quarrel between the two made Xiao Ruoshui's eyes suddenly light up, and he smiled mysteriously at Wang Shan and Gu Lisha: "I have a way to get out of this labyrinth." The four people immediately looked at him in surprise when they heard his words, he took out the water turtle from the cloth bag in his arms, the turtle seemed to be unwilling to move, and kept picking up Xiao Ruoshui's trousers, Xiao Ruoshui shook his head and put the fire spirit mouse on the turtle's body, patted the fire spirit mouse, the fire spirit mouse nodded, it pulled the water turtle, the water turtle reluctantly moved away from Xiao Ruoshui's feet, and slowly walked towards the front with the fire spirit mouse.
"We can definitely get out of this maze by following it. Xiao Ruoshui looked at the leading party leading the way in front of him and said proudly.
"Can this little guy take us out of the labyrinth?" Gu Lisha looked at Xiao Ruoshui suspiciously, and her face under the mask was probably full of questions.
"Follow, I have a hunch that this little guy can take us out. Xiao Ruoshui followed the water turtle with confidence. The face is full of confidence. Five people followed the lead party in front of them walked slowly, and after a while they came to a wide hall, everyone cheered, and finally walked out of the maze, the water tortoise still walked towards the front ignoring the door that was closed in the hall, it walked to the door, went straight into a small hole in front, and slowly climbed in, the fire spirit mouse also climbed in, and after a while it ran out with a scream, and ran to Xiao Ruoshui as if it had been greatly hurt, it jumped into Xiao Ruoshui's arms and trembled and did not want to come out.
Everyone looked at the fire spirit mouse suspiciously, and after a while, the water turtle came out, but it was very calm and seemed to look at the fire spirit mouse with the same confusion as everyone.
"It seems that there is something in it that the fire spirit rat does not want to touch, so it is frightened. "Let's think of a way to see if there is a way to open this gate?" Xiao Ruoshui said to the four people, he stepped forward to touch the door, and suddenly felt a cool air pass down his arm into his body, making him shiver.
"The water system formation, inside is actually the water system formation. Xiao Ruoshui was taken aback and cried out. The shocked performance of his face surprised everyone, and they all felt a trace of cold qi invading their bodies on the gate, but after listening to Xiao Ruoshui's shout, they couldn't help but be shocked by the strong ability of this formation, they were all masters in internal strength, and it was impossible to let the cold qi enter their bodies, but today they did feel it. They looked at Xiao Ruoshui, their eyes staring at him, seeing what he could do. (To be continued......)
