There were only two footsteps approaching slowly. It seemed that the monk was waiting for only one person. The pace is slow, but there is an urgency. The eager pace may be because the darkness has to slow down. The two footsteps stopped and stopped, and Chen Yuan could hear that every pause was lighting the torch on the wall. Finally, two steps stood in front of the bed at the same time.
"Who! Come out!" A strange voice suddenly shouted.
"Seize, seize, seize!" The sound of three flying knives thrust into the wall came from a distance, and Chen Yuan could tell that it was in the corner where wine jars and wheat straw were piled up.
Chen Yuan was startled just now and thought he had been discovered. It was not until he heard the sound of a knife and the sound of footsteps running out that he knew it was not the case.
"Is there someone hidden there? No, I didn't even notice it myself." Chen Yuan thought secretly in his heart.
"There's no one there, Master Jiang." A bald donkey's voice came from the distance.
"No one is right." This strange voice said in front of the bed.
"Ah?" Bald Donkey was full of doubts.
"I'm just shouting, this is the only place where people can hide in this secret room, what if there is one hidden there." The voice said.
"Hey! You are too careful, Master Jiang! No one knows about this secret room except me." Bald Donkey let out a long sigh.
"Oh? No one knows. Why were you nervous just now? Why did you run over to take a look." The man named Master Jiang said with a smile.
"If you believe in this secret room of yours so much, you should have stood here just now, because no one can enter except you." Master Jiang said again.
"Master Jiang should be more cautious," the monk said.
"Then let's start quickly!" the monk said again.
"If you're not busy, just wipe the ointment off his nose first," Master Jiang said.
"Ah? Then he will wake up in less than half an hour." The monk said.
"That's enough." Master Jiang said confidently.
"The princess still has to take him back." The monk added.
"Then you can apply it on him later." Master Jiang said.
"Why such a wooden bag?" The monk was a little unhappy.
"Are you a pig brain? If you wipe it, it will definitely be useful. You need to give it a shot in the philtrum, otherwise I won't mind the wooden bag!" Master Jiang scolded.
"Oh oh oh..." the scolded monk responded quickly and quickly pulled a piece of wheat straw from Chen Yuan's body, scraped the little prince's nose clean, then held it in his hand and waited, looking at Master Jiang smiled sarcastically. Master Jiang made a "hum" sound, took out a small white cloth bag from his arms, took out three silver needles, and applied them to Xuan Shou, Yang Bai, and Shuigou respectively.
After the third injection was administered, the young prince actually let out a long "ah" sound, just like a drunken person declaring his discomfort after vomiting, but he did not wake up after all. If Chen Yuan could see the young prince's face at this moment, he would find that his eyes were wide open, but they were dull and empty. His breathing rate had not changed at all from before, indicating that he was still asleep at this moment.
"Let me ask you, who are you?" Master Jiang's voice suddenly became low and long, creating a thick echo in the cave. Chen Yuan felt a little drowsy when he heard the voice.
"I am Ran Yun, my father's little son." The young prince spoke in an elongated manner, his voice indescribably confused.
"Acupuncture, the magic sound penetrates the ears, and the soul is searched. My surname is Jiang. I am Jiang Mi, the Charming Anhui Sect of the Western Regions." Chen Yuan thought to himself.
"Oh, good boy. Let me ask you, what did you find in your sacred mountain, Shuangfeng Mountain?" Jiang Mi asked softly, his voice sounding like he was coaxing a baby to sleep.
"A door." Ran Yun was still confused word by word.
"Oh? What kind of door is it?" Jiang Mi asked.
"A large bronze door, as high as half a mountain." Ran Yun said.
"Oh, what's behind the door?" Jiang Mi asked.
"I don't know, I can't get in." Ran Yun said.
Jiang Mi frowned and asked again: "Then how did you enter the sacred mountain?"
"From the Earth Temple." Ran Yun said.
"Oh, the Earth Temple is so small that no one can get in. Is there a secret passage?" Jiang Mi asked.
"There is a small fallen sculpture next to the temple. It is also made of bronze. It is a vulture." Ran Yun replied.
"Oh, is that a mechanism?" Jiang Mi asked.
"Yeah." Ran Yun said.
"How to open it?" Jiang Mi asked.
"Take a knife and touch the neck of the bronze vulture, and the earth temple will split open, and behind it is the secret passage." Ran Yun said.
"Oh, I got it, good boy." Jiang Mi said.
"Is it dangerous inside?" Jiang Mi asked again.
"It's not dangerous. There is nothing inside. There is only a bronze door. I don't know how to open it." Ran Yun said.
"Oh, there's no other mechanism?" Jiang Mi asked.
"I don't know, I didn't find it anyway." Ran Yun said.
"Then how do you know that outside the mountain, a touch of the vulture's neck can open this secret passage?" Jiang Mi asked.
"I didn't know it was a trap. I just wiped my neck when I saw the vulture statue." Ran Yundao said.
"Why?" Jiang Mi asked.
"Dad said that vultures represent the Western Regions. Just wipe their necks when you see them. The sculpture I used to practice swords and guns on since I was a child is also a vulture." Ran Yundao said.
"Hmph..." Jiang Mi snorted softly, and then said: "I know, good boy, go to sleep, go to sleep..." After that, he slowly took away the three silver needles.
Ran Yun obediently slowly closed his wide-open eyes, and immediately began to snore. Seeing this, the monk quickly applied the Ma Fei ointment that he had been holding on the tip of the wheat straw to Ran Yun's body, and he immediately started to snore again. Stopped snoring.
"Okay, you know it now. With just a few words, you have been struggling for more than half a year and still haven't come up with any answers." Jiang Mi snorted coldly.
"Master Jiang's skills are really extraordinary. I can't catch up with the other horses, even eight horses." The monk bowed and patted the horse.
"Hmph..." Jiang Mi hummed again, but this time he sounded happy.
"That is to say, what King Dingxi is guarding is actually in their sacred mountain." Jiang Mi said again.
"Yes, we thought it was underground in Qiuhuai Villa, and we had been setting up a trap for more than half a year." The monk said.
"That's bullshit. I've heard about it. It's haunted. You can imagine it. King Dingxi can believe this..." Jiang Mi sneered.
"Then there is no way to keep that yard vacant..." the monk said aggrievedly.
"It doesn't matter. It has been vacant for more than half a year, and you have been digging for more than half a year. You helped old thief Ran Zheng dig a cellar in vain." Jiang Mi laughed.
"Hey!" the monk sighed, and added: "I only blame the princess for not hearing it clearly. I only heard a few words of the conversation between the child and his father. The child told his father that there was a bronze door under the ground. This sentence is The princess heard it clearly, and then the father and son whispered something, and the child finally said "Of course, they are still under the locust tree!"
"So, you think there is a bronze door under the Qiuhuai Courtyard. After all, the courtyard is full of locust trees." Jiang Mi said with a smile.
"Yes, if Master Jiang hadn't taken action, we don't know how long our efforts would have been in vain." The monk bowed again.
"Hmph..." Jiang Mi hummed happily again.
"It's also strange that the Imperial Master left so few words." The monk said.
"Ran Zheng, Shou, Nan Qi Lifeline, Underground, Bronze Gate." Just these thirteen words are too difficult to find.
"The Imperial Master suffered such a serious injury back then, and he used all his strength to hold his breath back. It is not easy to be able to say these thirteen words," Jiang Midao said.
"No wonder he lost his temper as soon as he finished speaking. Ma Zhen was right next to him, and even he couldn't do anything about it," the monk said.
"Okay, I already know it. I'll go back and restore the sect master immediately. You can take care of yourself." Jiang Midao said.
"If that doesn't work, just dig a hole from behind the sacred mountain and see what's inside the bronze door." The monk said.
"Are you the reincarnation of a mouse? Are you uncomfortable without drilling holes?" Jiang Mi became anxious.
"You also said that it is the sacred mountain of the Nanqi people. No trees on the mountain are allowed to be cut down. Do you know that there are tens of thousands of troops outside Linze City? Are you digging someone else's sacred mountain? Even if you can keep digging secretly without being I found out, how do you know that it is just a copper door and not a square copper house? Are you asking me to dig for another year and a half in vain? If you really have nothing to do, can you go to Qiuhuai Courtyard and follow me? Then Mrs. Li will dig a cellar for Ran Zheng?" Jiang Mi spat out spittle, and the monk didn't even fart.
"I really don't know why my king saw you so much that he promised you the princess." Jiang Mi spat and walked out alone.
"Old guy, when I finish my great work, you can ask me if I don't sew your mouth to your asshole." The monk watched Jiang Mi disappear on the steps, whispered bitterly, then picked up the young prince, and also Went up the steps.
Chen Yuan lay still and didn't move. When he heard a "click", he knew that everyone had gone out and he was alone in the secret room again, so he slowly stood up and plucked the wheat straw from his body. He jumped up the steps briskly, leaned behind the Buddha statue and listened quietly. He had to wait for the princess to come and pick up the young prince, and then went out when there was no one in the house.
Therefore, Chen Yuan had some free time at the moment, so he simply sat on the top step of the cave entrance and sorted out the information he had just received: by chance, the young prince discovered the secret space behind the Earth Temple in Shuangfeng Mountain. A bronze door, and his father, King Ran Zheng of Dingxi, was guarding this bronze door, and inside it turned out to be something about the lifeline of the dynasty. The bald donkey, the princess, Jiang Mi and the Meiwan Sect and other people from the Western Regions must have wanted to find this thing and destroy it. After all, they were the ones who were destroyed by Nan Qi, or even by Ran Zheng. In the early years of the war, the six kingdoms of the Western Regions were destroyed by Nan Qi and the Four Kingdoms were destroyed. Three of the Four Kingdoms were destroyed by Ran Zheng. This group of people wanted to destroy Nan Qi and Ran Zheng. But what happened to the princess? Which country is she a princess from? Doesn’t the prince know? He hates foreigners so much that even the city gates have a sign saying "Foreigners will die if they cross the bridge." Even serious businessmen in the Western Regions can only do business with this city across the moat. How could he marry an exotic princess? He also had two sons with her?
The bronze door is as big as half a mountain. Who has this means? And when was it built? What could be the lifeblood of the dynasty? Even the mechanism that opens the secret space is so magical. It can be opened by swiping a knife on a bronze statue. What kind of method is this? What's the principle? Simply unbelievable. In short, this Linze City and this palace have too many secrets...
Thinking about these things gave Chen Yuan a headache, and at the same time made Chen Yuan feel a constant itching from his heart to his lower abdomen. Chen Yuan was still thinking about it when he heard a clear female voice coming from outside: "Then it's Master Ku's fault."
Yes, the princess has arrived to take the young prince home.
