Where does this passage lead to, and why are my father's eyes red after coming out of it?
Mu Mengzi was full of doubts. This was the first time she had seen her father look like this.
It's impossible not to feel heartache, it's just that she doesn't want to admit it.
After Mu Duanru came out, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
When he opened his eyes after a moment, his original eyes suddenly became sharper, as if there were no other emotions at all just now.
He came to the desk next to him, then stepped on a brick slab under his feet, and the bookshelf closed silently.
It's as if it has never been turned on.
Mu Mengzi looked at this scene and was secretly shocked.
If her father hadn't demonstrated it to her, Mu Mengzi would never have thought that an inconspicuous piece of floor could actually be a mechanism to open the passage.
She looked at the brick that Mu Duanru stepped on. No matter how she looked at it, it was no different from other bricks.
Moreover, more than half of that brick is covered by the desk, so no matter who comes, I am afraid that no one will care about the brick that is exposed a little bit.
Mu Duanru looked back at the closed bookshelf, made sure everything was fine, then turned around and left the room.
It wasn't until the footsteps gradually moved away that Xiang Liu let go of Mu Mengzi. Naturally, she witnessed the whole process of opening the mechanism, and she was inevitably a little surprised in her heart: "The person who set up the mechanism - I'm afraid it's not simple!"
Mu Mengzi looked at the frowning Senior Xiangliu, nodded in agreement, "Indeed, who would have thought that it would be such a brick to open the mechanism!"
Sure enough, everything in the TV series is a lie, what about pulling books, what about moving lamps...
Xiang Liu nodded and spoke again: "The formation above has completely blocked my perception. If I want to find something wrong..."
"The strength is at least one level higher than mine!"
Xiang Liu paused for a moment, his eyes obviously heavy for once.
Mu Mengzi thought about it without thinking. The Mu family was originally a merchant's home. How could they know a senior practitioner who was accomplished in formations?
Butler Li unconsciously appeared in her mind: "Senior Xiang Liu, could this formation be set up by Butler Li?"
Xiang Liu had this suspicion. Seeing that Mu Mengzi also doubted it towards Butler Li, she nodded: "It's not impossible."
It seems that Butler Li is more complicated than Mu Mengzi thought.
Xiang Liu didn't make too many guesses on the bricks with formations: "Mengzi, let's go in and take a look first!"
Mu Mengzi nodded, the first priority should be to go in and find out.
She came to the desk and stepped on the brick.
The bookshelf moved silently, and a dark passage appeared in front of Mu Mengzi and Xiang Liu.
The passage was extremely dark and eerie, as if it were leading to hell.
Mu Mengzi nodded at Senior Xiangliu.
The two of them entered the dark passage.
Not long after entering the passage, the bookshelf closed on its own.
I can't see my fingers in the passage, and I don't know how long it is as far as the eye can see.
Xiang Liu raised her fingertips, and a wisp of green flame shot up on her fingertips. The originally dark passage became a little brighter, and it was no longer as invisible as before.
Mu Mengzi looked at the flames dancing on Senior Xiang Liu's fingertips with surprise in her eyes.
Xiang Liu explained to him: "Compress your spiritual power to a certain level, and the spiritual power will be like a fire!"
Mu Mengzi raised her hand and tried as Senior Xiangliu said.
I saw that the spiritual power dissipated before it was completely condensed at her fingertips.
Seeing her failure, Xiang Liu consoled her: "This takes time to practice, so there is no rush."
Mu Mengzi didn't try again, she nodded.
The two of them moved forward with the help of the green flame in Xiang Liu's hand.
About two minutes later.
Light appeared in front of Mu Mengzi and Xiang Liu's eyes.
The two women looked at each other and quietly stepped forward to investigate.
Come to the exit of the passage.
A semicircular stone chamber appeared in front of them.
I don’t know what kind of candle is burning above the wall of the stone chamber, nor how long it has been burning, but there is no sign of decreasing.
What really caught the attention of Mu Mengzi and Xiang Liu was a crystal coffin in the middle of the stone chamber.
Mu Mengzi and Xiang Liu were a little surprised. There was only a valuable crystal coffin in this huge stone chamber!?
At the same time, the two of them couldn't help but become curious about who was lying in the crystal coffin.
His status must not be low, otherwise he would not be buried in a crystal coffin, and Mu Duanru would not be allowed to go out with red eyes.
Could it be Mu Mengzi's grandfather or grandmother?
The two of them went forward to investigate.
But before they reached the crystal coffin, they saw a spear shooting at the two of them without any warning.
Mu Mengzi didn't notice it at all. Fortunately, Xiang Liu noticed something was wrong immediately and quickly pulled Mu Mengzi back several steps.
"clang!"
The spear was inserted directly into the position where Mu Mengzi was standing just now, and stone chips flew away.
Mu Mengzi came back to her senses, her heart trembling with fear. If Senior Xiang Liu hadn't pulled her out just now, she might have been seriously injured or half dead.
Xiang Liu looked towards the direction where the spear was flying, frowned slightly and said, "Is it you!?"
Mu Mengzi followed Senior Xiang Liu's gaze and saw Butler Li in Tang suit walking slowly from the crystal coffin.
The moment she saw Butler Li, Mu Mengzi's heart sank. She thought he would stare at Ling Yun, but she never thought that someone else would just sit back and wait.
Butler Li looked at Xiang Liu and Mu Mengzi calmly: "Do you two know that this is a forbidden area for the Mu family!?"
Mu Mengzi took a deep breath to calm down and said, "I hope Butler Li will forgive me. We also walked into this place unintentionally!"
Butler Li raised his hand to suck back the spear. He held the spear in his hand and looked at Mu Mengzi calmly: "Your name should be Xu Yuyu..."
"Do you think I will believe it?"
When Mu Mengzi saw the other party showing murderous intent, his eyes suddenly turned cold: "We have no ill intentions!"
Butler Li raised the tip of his spear slightly and pointed it directly at Mu Mengzi: "Why do you Taoists come to the Mu family this time?"
Mu Mengzi took the white sword quietly: "Please believe that we have no ill intentions in coming to Mu's house this time!"
Butler Li's eyes suddenly became extremely sharp: "No one can disturb the young lady's sleep!"
After saying that, he took the spear and attacked Mu Mengzi and Xiang Liu like a cannonball.
Xiang Liu took out the dagger she gave to Mu Mengzi from nowhere, and she took the initiative to meet Butler Li who rushed up.
The two of them left a trail of fire in the sky with their afterimages.
Mu Mengzi held the white sword and tried her best to keep her eyes on the two people who were only afterimages.
Xiang Liu had not fully recovered his strength at this time, so he could only fight with Butler Li reluctantly.
After a hundred rounds, Xiang Liu and Butler Li appeared. They struck each other with palms and then took a few steps back.
Xiang Liu looked solemn and said: "He is stronger than we thought!"
Mu Mengzi naturally saw that Senior Xiang Liu was not hostile to him either, so she took a deep breath and said, "I'll go meet him!"
She wasn't sure, but she still wanted to test how far her strength compared with him, and maybe she could get a chance for Senior Xiang Liu.
Butler Li looked at Mu Mengzi who rushed up and said disdainfully: "The mayfly shakes the tree!"
I saw him slowly picking up the tip of the spear and stabbing it forward.
It seemed like a leisurely shot, but it was in front of Mu Mengzi in an instant, very fast.
Mu Mengzi stood ready, raised the white sword in his hand and swung the spear away, then wrapped the white sword in the cold air and slashed out.
The light blue sword energy went straight to Butler Li.
Butler Li raised his hand and punched to dissipate the sword energy, but his fist was wrapped in a layer of ice.
There was a bit of surprise in his eyes: "Extremely Yin physique?"
Mu Mengzi caught the moment when the opponent underestimated the enemy, and the white sword was pointed directly between his eyebrows.
Faced with the threat that had reached him, Butler Li did not panic.
Seeing that he was not defensive, Mu Mengzi was puzzled.
But in the next second, Butler Li suddenly disappeared in front of her.
Mu Mengzi's pupils suddenly dilated, and she was secretly shocked. How could this be possible!?
At that moment, Xiang Liu was shocked and said: "Mengzi, watch your back!"
Mu Mengzi felt an icy chill coming from behind her.
Moreover, Butler Li did not know when he appeared behind Mu Mengzi, and his spear was aimed at him unstoppably.
With Mu Mengzi's strength, she definitely couldn't dodge this shot, and Xiang Liu was far away and it was impossible to come to the rescue.
At that moment, Mu Mengzi was filled with unwillingness. She had not yet rescued Yan Xiaolai, nor had she investigated her own life experience. Her unwillingness filled her heart.
But given the disparity in strength, Mu Mengzi had no chance of escaping.
She closed her eyes and waited for the shot to come.
But after a few seconds, the pain did not come, and Mu Mengzi opened her eyes.
I saw a jade-like hand protruding from the void on the side and grabbing the spear.
Mu Mengzi was stunned, who saved her?
When Butler Li saw that hand, he was stunned for a moment, then quickly let go of the spear, knelt down in the direction of the crystal coffin and said: "Please punish me for disturbing the young lady's sleep!"
After Butler Li let go of his hand, the jade-like hand also returned to the void, as if it had never appeared before.
Mu Mengzi did not have the feeling of surviving the disaster. When she saw that jade hand, a sense of familiarity filled her heart.
Who is in the crystal coffin? From the title of Butler Li, he should be a person of extraordinary status.
Miss?
Could it be some aunt and sister-in-law of the same generation as her father?
This thought passed quickly, and Mu Mengzi seemed to suddenly realize who was in the crystal coffin.
Li Xiaomeng!
Her mother!
She remembered that Butler Li came to Mu's house with her mother, and the relationship between the two was said to be that of master and servant.
His mother is the master, and Butler Li is the servant.
And in the entire Mu family, the only person in the Mu family who could give Butler Li such respect and courtesy was his own mother!
At that moment Mu Mengzi felt as if she had lost her soul and walked towards the crystal coffin blankly.
Seeing how disrespectful she was, Butler Li was about to take action, but a force of will kept him where he was.
Mu Mengzi came to the crystal coffin in a daze, and what caught her eye was a woman of unparalleled elegance.
Her appearance is very similar to when she was still Mu Mengzi's body, especially her eyebrows and red lips.
Although Mu Mengzi has never seen her mother, at this moment she is sure that this is her mother!
Looking at the quiet woman in the crystal coffin, Mu Mengzi's eyes blurred unconsciously, and big tears fell on the crystal coffin like broken pearls.
In such a scene, no matter how stupid Butler Li was, he could still guess something. He turned back to look at Xiang Liu with cold eyes: "Who is she!?"
Xiang Liu looked at Butler Li and took a deep breath. He did not hide Mu Mengzi's identity. After all, the other party might have guessed it at this moment: "She is - Mu Mengzi!"
When these three words fell, it was like a bolt of lightning struck Butler Li. With a horrified look on his face, he turned to look at Mu Mengzi, who was lying on the crystal coffin crying bitterly, and said in a trembling voice: "Little, little master!"
