Chapter 686 Discovering something strange 2
have to! Let's go back! What else can I do? ! Bi Yuntao was extremely depressed, with his head hanging down, and had no choice but to return the way he came. Just think of it as a reward for discovering this shortcut to spying on the pretty widow.
"Doubtful?" Bi Yuntao returned to the place where he came in, looking at the tightly closed entrance, frowning, "Why is it closed? Why didn't I remember to close it again?"
"Could it be that someone has come in?" Bi Yuntao circled around with a powerful flashlight, then shook his head and said to himself: "Impossible. If someone really comes in, unless he is a martial arts master, in this quiet secret passage, he You must be able to hear the footsteps. Besides, there is no hiding place in the entire secret passage. I walked along and didn't notice any shadow at all."
"How is it closed?" Bi Yuntao frowned and fell into deep confusion. With confusion in his mind, he turned and walked towards the exit.
When he reached the corner, Bi Yuntao stopped and stared at the abrupt corner.
"Sure enough, this abrupt corner is still very concerning. I wanted to wait until tomorrow to talk about it, but I just left it alone, and I'm a little concerned about it."
If there is really a problem with this corner, then there must be some mechanism here, so let me take a closer look.
Bi Yuntao took the tiger-tooth dagger and struck it east and west, feeling the difference in the sound. But without exception, the knocking sounds are all the same, without any difference.
Bi Yuntao pondered for a moment, then looked up at the top of his head.
"This secret passage is underground, and the entrances and exits are all above your head, so naturally the exit of this place is also above your head."
Bi Yuntao murmured to himself, and without hesitation at the moment, he took out a broken piece of silver and smashed it on the top of his head.
Sure enough, just as Bi Yuntao guessed, the broken silver hit the ceiling with a "dong" sound. It was obviously empty.
"There is indeed something strange here. You are as smart as me!" Bi Yuntao was proud for a while, but couldn't help but be troubled again. The strange place was found, so the question also arises. Where is the mechanism to open the door above his head?
Bi Yuntao looked around again. Wherever he looked, there were only stone walls. The only thing that caught his attention was the oil lamp and the pedestal.
Looking at the torches and pedestals, he realized that along the way, there were only oil lamps and pedestals placed here. In other places, let alone oil lamps, there were no items used for lighting such as torches, or even stones. There is no platform, and the walls are extremely smooth.
With this thought, Bi Yuntao targeted the oil lamp and pedestal. He reached out and grabbed the oil lamp.
Bi Yuntao lifted it up, but he couldn't take it off. He had to exert some effort, but the oil lamp still didn't move, which made him frown secretly, "Huh? I can't take it off."
This discovery made Bi Yuntao even more convinced that the oil lamp and stone platform were the location of the mechanism.
Moving closer, Bi Yuntao studied the oil lamp and stone platform carefully.
After careful observation, it turned out that the oil lamp was integrated with the stone platform. Judging from its appearance, it must have been embedded in the stone platform using some special method. There is a groove between the oil lamp and the stone platform, where the oil lamp is placed.
"It shouldn't be!" Bi Yuntao rubbed his chin, thinking, and muttered to himself, "Looking at it like this, it should have been put up there. Why can't it be taken down?"
"If you can't take it off, does it rotate?" Bi Yuntao did what he said, grabbed the handle of the oil lamp and turned it to the left.
When faced with undecided situations, abide by the principle of men being on the left and women being on the right, sometimes it will work wonders, like right now.
"Sure enough, there is something going on!" Bi Yuntao's eyes lit up, and the excitement in his eyes was hard to describe. Since a mechanism is arranged here, the things in the room above must be very valuable. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have gone to such great lengths to build such a secret passage.
Maybe, what was on it was the drawing that he had been thinking about for a long time. As long as the blueprint is obtained, his title as King Qi can be restored, and the pretty widow can naturally become her own princess, and from then on live a life without shame with the Xue family mother and daughter.
As Bi Yuntao turned the oil lamp, the stone platform on which the oil lamp was placed below also changed slightly.
Bi Yuntao was completely immersed in excitement and fantasized about having a happy sexual life in the future. He was so motivated that he couldn't help but speed up the movements of his hands, completely unaware of the subtle changes in the stone platform.
Bi Yuntao's hands were sore after turning the oil lamp countless times, but there was still no reaction. This made him feel a little discouraged.
"Could it be that it's not rotating?" Bi Yuntao scratched his head irritably, and then denied his conjecture, "It should be rotating. It's very possible that the direction of rotation is wrong. After all, this mechanism was designed by the pretty widow. Yes, the left side may not be the correct position."
After making up his mind, Bi Yuntao turned the oil lamp to the right a few times, but there was still no response, and the ceiling above his head did not move at all.
"Damn it! Stop it! Go back to bed and wait until tomorrow! It's delaying my memory of the beautiful widow's bathing!" Bi Yuntao also lost his temper and simply gave up the job.
When he thought of that fragrant scene, Bi Yuntao felt hot in his heart. He saw the beautiful scenery that he had never seen before, and unexpectedly discovered a secret passage leading to the pretty widow's residence. This trip was worth the money.
Thinking of this, Bi Yuntao happily picked up the flashlight on the ground and prepared to leave. But an unintentional glance when he raised his head immediately made him froze in place. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief and even pinched himself.
"Hiss! It hurts!" Bi Yuntao grinned in pain, but now his eyes were full of excitement. Under the illumination of the flashlight, a gap can be clearly seen at the connection between the stone platform and the wall. There is something hidden inside, but the gap is too small to see clearly what it is.
This change in the stone platform made Bi Yuntao even more excited. He hurriedly stepped forward and examined the stone platform carefully.
"Haha!" Bi Yuntao laughed excitedly, "It's true that the emperor has paid off! I wasted half a day, but I finally discovered it."
Bi Yuntao turned the oil lamp again excitedly. After seeing the treasure, he now had motivation and turned even harder.
"Oh! Speaking of which, I have to thank the Pretty Widow for this!" Bi Yuntao muttered happily: "If I hadn't been anxious to go back and relive the scene of the Pretty Widow taking a bath, I really wouldn't have discovered that there are other things inside this stone platform. There’s something hidden.”
After turning around a few times, Bi Yuntao had some doubts in his mind. Since the mechanism of the oil lamp was related to the stone platform, where was the mechanism in the room above his head?
Thinking like this, Bi Yuntao couldn't help but glance at the top of his head.
