Jiang Yu immediately decided to go to the secret room.
This place is full of weirdness. If you don't go down, how can you get anything useful?
Maybe this secret room is the lair of the old man who eats ghosts.
The air gradually became thinner from the steps down. Jiang Yu took out the Book of Immortals and was alert to the activation of any mechanism in the secret room.
After walking down for more than ten steps, the two of them landed on the ground.
"The spirit energy in this place is a bit chaotic."
Yin Banner held the mourning banner tightly and followed Jiang Yu closely, "Be careful and don't rush forward impulsively."
Jiang Yu looked around and found that the secret room seemed quite ordinary. There was only a low table and a soft couch in the middle. There were some books on the table, an oil lamp for lighting, and a pen holder for writing brushes.
She did not rush forward rashly, but groped forward along the base of the wall.
The wall is very solid, with no empty bricks or hidden mechanisms.
If this secret room is just like this, then wouldn't it be enough to build a separate room?
Wouldn't it be troublesome to dig out a space separately?
Jiang Yu thought and turned to look at Ao An again.
The books on the table are very ordinary. They are just a few legal texts circulating in the market and books on identifying monsters and elixirs.
Yin Ban'er lifted up the thin quilt on the soft couch, which was a little messy. He reached out and touched it. The fabric was still very soft.
"It seems like people come here often, and the quilts are still soft."
Someone comes often!
Jiang Yu suddenly understood. She squatted down and patted the futon behind the low desk. The fabric sewn on the futon was very soft and did not have the hard feeling of dust invading.
Sure enough, this is not the secret room that Xiao Mansion takes for granted.
Thinking about it, there must be someone who often receives guests here.
If it is used as a secret room for receiving guests, it should...
Jiang Yu reached out and opened the half-covered manuscript. He stopped writing halfway through the sentence.
She looked at the words and murmured: "... came out of the water, stayed in other people's homes, and sold silk for a long time. When I go, I will ask for a utensil from the owner, and the beads will be filled with tears from my tears."
The natural history written by the predecessor Zhang Maoxian is a story of a shark weeping with tears.
Unable to find any clues, Jiang Yu felt a little restless. She closed the manuscript heavily and the brush that was not on the pen holder fell under the table.
Yin Banner lowered his head to pick it up and looked up to see a subtle spiritual light.
"Hey! Girl Jiang Yu, come here quickly."
Jiang Yu turned around and saw Yin Banner kneeling funny beside the soft couch, stretching her head to look into the shelf, holding the mourning banner in one hand and the penholder in the other. It was very funny.
She didn't even laugh out loud, and hurriedly knelt beside the soft couch like him, lowered her head and looked inside.
It's a piece of cloth. If you look at it from a distance, you can only see clearly that there are talismans painted on it.
What is this?
Yin Banner put the writing brush on the desk and stretched the mourning banner under the shelf to reach the cloth strip. Fortunately, he had long hands and feet and took it out in two clicks.
It is a plate-shaped thing wrapped in white cloth and cinnabar talismans.
Jiang Yu felt vaguely that this thing was very familiar, and he eagerly took apart the cloth strips regardless of the fact that the talisman pattern filled with cinnabar was hot to his hands.
The moment this thing revealed its true form, she felt her breathing stop for a moment.
Yin Ban'er poked his head over and took one look. His face lost all color. He screamed: "Three Treasures Yin and Yang Mirror! How come this thing is here!"
No one knows the origin or whereabouts of the Three Treasure Yin-Yang Mirror. It is said to be able to swallow up the sky and the moon, and accommodate all things in the world. It is a very famous magic weapon in the world.
In addition to its famous ability to swallow the sky and the moon, it is even more famous for its owner, the former god general of Xingyan Sect - Qi Yinque.
Jiang Yu pinched the mirror, his knuckles turned white.
It was unmistakable. After she opened the white cloth that sealed these magic weapons, the spiritual energy overflowing from the mirror made her very familiar. This was the master's thing.
Such an important magic weapon was actually sealed and thrown under the bed.
The master has not only been here, but also lost here.
Xiao family, does the master's disappearance have anything to do with the Xiao family?
Jiang Yu was in confusion and was stunned for a long time before using the Youxianlu to put the Three Treasures Yin-Yang Mirror into it.
The magic weapon has been sealed by someone. The master may not have been here before. It is better to look for any other clues.
Yin Ban'er patted his chest to calm down and was scared to death. This was the powerful magic weapon that sealed him in Yangtian Nest. If he fell into this place, wouldn't his life be in danger?
He watched Jiang Yu immersed himself in groping on the desk again, and wanted to go and help. As soon as he took a step, Jiang Yu touched the tea cup on the table and made a crisp click.
In the northeast corner, a thick stone door slowly opened.
Jiang Yu turned around in surprise. There was an oil lamp burning behind the door. The light was dim, but it looked very bright in the dark secret room.
There is actually a secret room in the secret room!
In the inner room, a thick spiritual energy filled the air the moment the door was opened, which was very fishy and sweet.
It's the smell of blood.
Yin Ban'er walked in front and protected Jiang Yu behind him: "Little girl, I will take the lead, but you have to pay attention. If there is danger, remember to call me back to Youxianlu."
Jiang Yu nodded helplessly, and the two of them walked towards the second floor of the secret room together.
If the previous secret room was just a place where guests could receive secret information, then the second secret room was the secret cell of the Xiao family.
As soon as she stepped inside, she shivered from the biting cold air that hit her face.
The walls of the secret room were covered with all kinds of torture instruments, and the glistening blade was slightly covered with rust. It was unclear whether it was really rusty or stained with dried blood.
A pool was dug out under the torture device, with an iron cage covering it, and sealing talismans on all sides, making it difficult for people to see what was going on inside.
There were several ripples in the pool, and the person imprisoned inside must have woken up.
Jiang Yu walked over vigilantly, lifted up the layers of sealing talismans, and looked inside.
It was a child with his head hanging down. He was bound by iron chains that restrained him from all sides. These iron chains looked thicker than his arms.
His ragged clothes could only cover his slender limbs, and his exposed hands were bloodless white. His long hair hung down to the surface of the water, floating like wandering water plants.
As if being shocked by Jiang Yu's move to lift the sealing talisman, the child moved, revealing his big orange tail hidden under the water.
A fox demon that has not yet completed its transformation?
Jiang Yu frowned. The Xiao family, a cultivating family, had both secret rooms and secret cells. They even secretly imprisoned demon spirits and even used lynching.
Is it too cruel?
The iron chains in the cage collided lightly and made a clattering sound. The child raised his head and looked at Jiang Yu, making a weak sound.
"Are you here to save me?"
[Girl Jiang Yu, this kid’s spiritual energy is very weak. There must be some magic weapon in this water prison that is constantly consuming his spiritual energy. I want to save him. 】
Jiang Yu looked at Yin Ban'er in surprise, not expecting that he would take the initiative to say that he wanted to save the young demon.
Yin Ban'er looked unbearable, as if remembering something from the past. Seeing that Jiang Yu didn't stop him, he picked up the mourning flag and shook it.
"Don't be afraid, kid. Step back a little and I'll see if I can save you."
