She struck it with the hilt of the knife, then jumped down and took out a bunch of items from her backpack.
There was a pile of shiny diamond-like things, a steel awl, and some tendon ropes. She could see her hands moving quickly and quickly assembled those things together.
It turned out to be a drill!
And it was a diamond. Everyone was shocked. They knew that the eldest lady was capable, but... this was too powerful.
Shen Mingzhu ordered: "Make a net on the wall."
Zhuyi and others understood and immediately started working. They inserted the steel awl into the wall and tied the rope. After a few times, a net came out.
Shen Mingzhu jumped up gently, stepped on the rope, found a crack in the stone, and began to point the homemade diamond drill there, and then began to pull the drill, making endless sounds of "chi la chi la".
There was no movement at first, but slowly, the drill got embedded.
Ju Qing and others began to ask for help and took turns climbing into the top of the secret room.
Shen Mingzhu drew a few dots on the top based on some knowledge of architecture and physics, and asked them to drill those dots in.
She judged that the place above was probably the secret room at the back of Feng Qinran's palace. The location was relatively remote, and there must be a mechanism. The mechanism might be above, but there was no mechanism to get up from below.
I don't know how long it took, but they finally got through a hole.
At this time, a subtle sound came from above.
Everyone held their breaths. Shen Mingzhu gathered her inner strength and listened. There seemed to be no one above.
Then I took a look and found that the holes were probably too small, the floor was too thick, and it was still dark, so I couldn't see clearly.
She continued to make diamond diamonds, and then asked several people to drill them together.
It is not an easy task for ordinary people, but since they have great internal strength, it is not difficult to do this job.
When the sound of gun salute came from outside, they finally drilled several holes. Shen Mingzhu asked each of them to hold a corner, while she concentrated all her internal strength in her left palm, and then held it and sucked it.
, the stone slab moved.
As soon as it moved, the huge weight of the stone slab came down, and the women hurriedly gathered all their inner strength to push it up.
Zhuyi and Juyun hurriedly unscrewed the steel rods they carried one by one and held them underneath.
Slowly, the stone slab sank, and when it was an inch away, light came in.
But there's obviously something else up there.
She poked around and found that it was lichen. Because it was winter, the ground was covered with thick felt lichen.
Shen Mingzhu carefully took out a sharp dagger, and then gently cut a small opening. After listening, there was no movement, so she took out a small curved mirror, stuck it out, and took a look. Sure enough, she judged that there was nothing wrong.
No, this is the secret room, and there aren't many things in it.
And by coincidence, the stone slab they removed was on a table. The table had a tablecloth hanging down, so it couldn't be seen from the outside.
She carefully probed the mirror to the edge of the hanging cloth and saw it.
But there seemed to be no one.
Shen Mingzhu and others placed the heavy stone slab on the ground. She jumped up first and crawled out from the breach in the lichen.
If it weren't for this secret passage, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to get to Feng Qinran's palace.
Feng Qinran is now very suspicious. Unless someone she trusts, it is impossible for her to enter her bedroom.
