The place where Gu Xun climbed out of the water is located in the bottomless abyss of the level of Tiger Leaping Sarutobi.
After all, it's just something man-made. It's impossible to dig down endlessly, and the underground water flow doesn't allow them to dig.
Of course, the existing height is dozens of feet high, which is more than enough to kill someone. The stone walls on both sides are covered with slippery moss, so there is nowhere to use force. Simply relying on light skills is quite strenuous.
And those who can't fall to death in this situation will not be able to pass the trap of Tiger Leaping Sarutobi.
After Gu Xun climbed up, he used his true energy to steam dry his clothes, casually passed the two traps, and easily reached the dragon's throat in the third level.
This is also his true destination.
No mechanism was triggered during this period, and his feet didn't even touch the ground just to be on the safe side.
During the day, he specifically inquired that the Ink Core could observe the triggering conditions of various mechanisms, but it mainly relied on the pressure sensing device on the ground to determine the location.
As for the status of various defense agencies, it is not always possible to check.
Therefore, once the mechanism located at the dragon's throat to protect the Phantom Sound Box is triggered, it may not necessarily alert the Mo family.
He decided to take a gamble.
In my impression, when Tianming and the others took away the Phantom Sound Treasure Box, they did not let Master Ban and others see it from the mechanism. They only judged that they had passed the Dragon Throat based on subsequent movements.
Of course, Gu Xun will try his best to ensure that the mechanism remains intact.
Jing Ke's assassination of Qin had not yet happened, so naturally there were no stone murals depicting the incident on the way to Longhou.
Gu Xun arrived at the location of the dragon's throat without any hindrance, which is the place with the dragon pattern.
As soon as you step on this place, the floor tiles will collapse, causing you to fall into the dragon's throat mechanism where the phantom sound treasure box is placed.
Relying on his ability to fly, Gu Xun was floating in mid-air, and used his sharp sword energy to create a hole along the seams of the floor tiles that was large enough for him to pass through.
I don’t know if the Mo family’s pre-Qin black technology pressure sensor was not sensitive enough, but Gu Xun’s actions did not trigger the mechanism on the floor tiles, allowing him to smoothly reach the Magic Sound Box without causing any noise.<
/p>
Maybe the mechanism below is also triggered by the pressure of the floor tiles, so Gu Xun was not surrounded by the sawtooth array of mechanisms like the three little ones in the plot.
Although there is no threat, it would be best if we can avoid making any noise.
Gu Xun lit a fire in the void, and through the bright firelight, he could clearly see a small red pentagonal box.
There are many patterns and symbols of different styles engraved on the box, giving people a simple and ancient feeling. There are also some Chu characters on the lid, which read - Twelve phantom rhythms, five tunes are not music, heavenly rhyme of bliss, magic sound
Thousands.
This is the treasure that the Yin Yang family attaches great importance to - the Phantom Sound Treasure Box.
Although it is just a small flat box now, as soon as it is opened, the exquisite mechanism inside will operate, and a golden tower of music with five floors and twelve windows will rise. Each floor corresponds to the five tunes of Gong Shangjiao Zhengyu. One of the twelve window eaves corresponds to the twelve laws.
Originally, after the Dragon Throat's mechanism was activated, the stone pillar containing the Phantom Sound Box would begin to fall, and the mechanism had to be solved before the time limit. Now that the mechanism has not been triggered at all, there is no need to rush.
Gu Xun took a moment to look at the treasure that the Yin and Yang family had been pursuing for hundreds of years, but did not open it here.
Or prevent triggering the mechanism.
Then, Gu Xun took a few pieces of a stone he had picked up earlier and replaced the phantom sound treasure box on the stone pillar with a hand speed that was extremely inconsistent with his current identity.
With a speed that was almost as fast as stopping, the mechanism of the stone pillar at the base of the Phantom Sound Box was successfully prevented from being triggered.
Well, actually Gu Xun doesn’t know whether the mechanism is triggered or not, because he doesn’t even know whether there is a mechanism at the base of the Phantom Sound Box, and if so, how it is triggered.
In fact... Gu Xun did not touch the mechanism. After all, he changed it too quickly. The Mo family's high-tech sensor did not respond, and it was not particularly sensitive to changes in the weight of the object pressed on it.
After getting the things, Gu Xun planned to leave, but after he turned his attention away from the Phantom Sound Box, he suddenly noticed something disharmonious around him.
After looking carefully several times by the firelight, Gu Xun still didn't react.
It wasn't until he came up from the pothole below that he realized what was wrong.
The area below is so new!
The government city was built bit by bit over a period of three hundred years. Different areas were built at different times. Although in theory, it is difficult for time to leave obvious traces on things like stone, but when the time span is large enough, There are still some differences, especially in such a rarely visited place.
After careful comparison, Gu Xun can confirm that there is definitely a significant difference in the construction time of the upper and lower areas, and there is a high probability that it was built after the lower area.
Of course, this is basically a meaningless judgment. After all, it is impossible to dig such a hole out of thin air.
The question is, shouldn’t the Phantom Sound Treasure Box have been placed in the Mo family’s forbidden area in the city?
Why is the place where it is placed much later than the time when the forbidden area was built?
Was it originally placed in another location, but in recent years this area was built and moved in?
Or was it not originally here at all, but was put here in recent years and specially built here to display it?
After thinking about it for a while, Gu Xun found that he had no clue because he didn't know anything.
If you want to know the answer as quickly as possible, you have to ask the Six-Fingered Black Man directly, but...
Today he sneaked in to steal things, so it was hard to reveal everything to question the Six-fingered Black Man.
He will never imitate Kong Yiji and argue with others about the difference between stealing and stealing. He is not a scholar either.
Will you still not return other people’s things when the time comes?
There’s no way...this thing is destined to me, right?
With no clue, Gu Xun had no choice but to ignore it for the time being, repairing and covering up the big hole in the floor as much as possible, and then returned to his residence without disturbing anyone.
It's past midnight, but Yan Lingji hasn't rested yet, waiting boredly for Gu Xun to return.
With a creak, the stone door of the room opened. Gu Xun took the Phantom Sound Treasure Box and ducked into the room.
Yan Lingji's eyes lit up when she saw someone coming back, she twisted her long exposed legs and got up from the bed.
"How's it going? Did you get what you wanted?"
"Yes!" Gu Xun nodded, closed the door first, and then placed the Phantom Sound Box on the stone table, "Of course I got it."
Upon seeing this, Yan Lingji came over, sat on the stone bench and looked at the Phantom Sound Treasure Box, and said at the same time, "It seems that no one in the Mo family was disturbed. It has been quiet outside."
"Probably, I'm not sure, maybe people know about it, they just keep quiet."
Yan Lingji probably felt that she couldn't see any clues, so she reached out and picked up the Phantom Sound Treasure Box, and got closer to look at it, "So, no matter what the use of this thing is, you can directly ask the Six-Fingered Black Man for it.
It’s not necessarily that I won’t give it, so why steal it?”
"If you are discovered and caught doing something, it will not look good."
