"Wait a minute!" Shen Cha took Shen Haolin's arm, gently stepped on the stone bricks under his feet, and frowned slightly, "It seems to be loose."
"Loose?" Shen Haolin came over and stepped on it twice, then stepped on a few pieces next to him, and nodded to Shen Cha, "It's definitely a little looser than the one next to him." He squatted down and knocked with his hand. Knocking on the stone brick, "Isn't there a secret room below? You just said that it feels like there is a hidden space. It can't be below this, right?"
"Probably not." Shen Cha shook her head gently. She pointed to the back of the memorial table, and then pointed to the location of the camphor wood boxes. "I think the hidden space is within this range, but it will definitely not be there. Underground."
"Do you think the foundation is unstable?"
"Yes, if two underground secret rooms are built, it will cause certain dangers to the houses above. In any case, this place belongs to the library, and Uncle Xue will not ignore the safety of the library."
"That makes sense. If the ground is all empty, if something happens, a very tragic situation will happen." Shen Haolin stepped lightly with his toes twice, "Then, here's the problem, he specially made it What is the use of such a brick?"
"You'll know if you pry it open and take a look. Maybe there's some small piece of paper hidden inside!"
While talking, Shen Cha squatted down, took out the dagger hidden in the boot, and slowly inserted it along the seam of the blue brick. Feeling that he had found a strong point, he pried it up hard.
Shen Haolin had been watching from the side. When he saw the stone brick being pried up, he bent down and hugged Shen Cha, and quickly dragged her away.
"Brother, what do you mean?" Shen Cha originally wanted to see what was underneath, but in the end, more than half of the stone bricks were pried open. Before he could pry them all off, Shen Haolin took him away.
"What if there is an agency?"
"Brother, you are worrying too much." Shen Cha chuckled, "The place with the most agencies should be up there. If you can find it here, it means you are one of our own, and there cannot be any more agencies."
She struggled to stand up, pulled Shen Haolin to the brick, gently picked up the stone brick and put it aside.
"Eh?" Shen Cha looked at Shen Haolin. Both of them looked confused, "Empty?"
Not only were there no mechanisms under the stone bricks, there were not even the small pieces of paper that Chen Cha missed. It was just dirt except for dirt.
"If it's empty, why not smash it properly?" Shen Cha frowned slightly, "There's something wrong."
"Don't jump to conclusions yet, let's look for any stone bricks with the same situation as this." Shen Haolin stepped on brick by brick, "If there are, we will pry them up, maybe we can find what you are looking for." The space mentioned is hidden.”
Shen Cha nodded and followed Shen Haolin, imitating his example and stepping on them piece by piece.
It took two people nearly half a stick of incense to pry open thirty-two stone bricks. There was nothing underneath these stone bricks.
"This is the last piece. If there is still nothing, it means we are going in the wrong direction."
Shen Cha took a deep breath, inserted the dagger into the seam of the stone brick, and pried it gently.
"Brother, it seems that we guessed wrong this time. It's not something..."
Before she finished speaking, she heard a creaking sound coming from behind the memorial table. She quickly stood up and looked towards the white wall behind the memorial table, and saw that the white wall was slowly moving like two sides. Opening it, a brand new space appeared in front of them.
"Oh my god, it's so scary!" Xue Ruitian was looking for the key wholeheartedly, but he didn't expect such a loud noise coming from behind him. When he heard the sound, he turned around and took two steps back in fright, " What did you two get up to? This...this...what's going on? Why is there still a door?"
"Xiao Tian'er, isn't this your home?" Although Jin Jing was also shocked, she was still calm. Shen Haolin and Shen Cha had informed him just now when they stepped on the empty brick. "Tell me, you are away from home all day long. You are either in the camp or in the Duke's mansion every day. As a result, you have so many secrets in your home and you don't know about them at all. Tell me what it is like to be the master of the Duke's mansion. That’s right!”
"This...this...isn't..." Xue Ruitian groaned twice, "I have been fighting every day in the past few years, and I have only settled down in the past year. There are still a lot of messy things to deal with, so where can I go?" Are there any secret rooms, secret passages, or mechanisms in the mansion?" He touched his chin and looked at the new place he had just opened, "I just turned over this mourning table and found no trace of the key. What do you think? It can't be here..." He pointed at the opening of the white wall, "Inside?"
"Go and have a look. You'll know after you see it."
"The ginger soup is here, drink the ginger soup...oh my god!" Jin Miaomiao came down from the top carrying a large pot of steaming ginger soup in one hand and a stack of tea bowls in the other, and just shouted to everyone to come and drink ginger together. Tang Qu Quhan raised his eyes and saw the new place behind the spiritual table. He was so surprised that he almost threw out the big pot and tea bowl in his hands. "I've only been up there for a while, and you guys made such a big noise again. I...hey, why is this empty?" She almost stepped into the empty stone brick, but luckily she saw it and dodged in time. , she put the big pot in her hand aside, "Okay, you guys come here and drink the ginger soup first, and then start a new adventure, okay?"
Shen Haolin nodded and dragged Shen Cha to Jin Miaomiao, "Miaomiao, give me a bowl of Cha."
"She definitely wants to drink it, and it's more than just one bowl." Jin Miaomiao handed over a bowl of hot ginger soup, and she and Shen Haolin stared at Shen Cha as she drank it, watching her finish the bowl in one go. Passing it over and waving to herself, Jin Miaomiao frowned slightly, "Drink another half bowl. Look at the spicy and hot ginger soup. You don't even sweat."
"But, I can't drink anymore. It's already here." Shen Cha gestured to his neck, "Can I drink it later? I'll have a bowl later, okay?"
"You really can't drink anymore?" Seeing Shen Cha nodding frequently, Jin Miaomiao sighed, poured a bowl and handed it to Shen Haolin, "Okay, you can drink it later." She turned to Xue Ruitian and Jin Jing and Hongye shouted, "You three, hurry up!"
Xue Ruitian finished the last bit of work, clapped the dirt on his hands, walked over, took the ginger soup from Jin Miaomiao, and drank it all.
"I found nothing in this piece. Maybe the keys were placed inside." He sighed softly. "Father was really careful. He was afraid that it would be dangerous to put them all together. He created so many complicated mechanisms." He looked at Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, "Let's go and take a look?"
"Yes!" Shen Cha nodded, pulled Shen Haolin's sleeve and walked behind the spiritual table, "Miaomiao, hurry up, I may need your help."
