Shi Xuedong vomited until bile came out. He wiped his mouth and said, "I'm scared. Throw that thing away quickly."
Hu Xiaotian asked: "Has anyone from Siyuan Bureau gone missing recently?"
When asked by Shi Xue Dong Jing what he had just remembered, he nodded and said, "Yes, little Dengzi. He left without saying goodbye a month ago and left a letter. It is said that he could not bear the hardship in the palace."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Look, is this Xiao Dengzi?"
Shi Xuedong looked at Hu Xiaotian with a mournful face. Except for the finger, the body had all turned into a puddle of water. How could he identify the deceased?
Hu Xiaotian also knew that he did not have this ability, so he threw the remaining finger into the pool of yellow water, and it disappeared in a short time.
When Shi Xuedong saw the scene in front of him, although he still wanted to vomit, he couldn't.
Hu Xiaotian said: "How many keys are there in the Siyuan Bureau's medicine warehouse?"
Shi Xuedong said: "I took the key from you. There is only this one, and it has never been changed." He paused, thinking that Hu Xiaotian was doubting himself, and hurriedly confessed: "I swear, I am with the people here."
It has nothing to do with it."
Hu Xiaotian thought to himself, Shi Xuedong has never done it, and he has never done it himself. The door outside is locked tightly. Is there any other way to enter the medicine warehouse? Looking at the pool of yellow water on the ground, Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but feel trapped.
While thinking, according to what Shi Xuedong said, the person who died was probably Xiao Dengzi. Xiao Dengzi was also an old man in Siyuan Bureau. Why did he come here? Did he secretly obtain the key to the medicine warehouse?
Shi Xuedong also thought of this level. He shook his head and said: "I always carry the key to Siyuan Bureau with me and never leave it."
Hu Xiaotian suddenly remembered something and whispered: "You put out the light!"
"What?"
Shi Xuedong was originally frightened, but now that he heard that Hu Xiaotian wanted him to put out the lights, he couldn't help but become even more frightened, and said in a trembling voice: "Let's go, it's... it's really... too gloomy..."
Hu Xiaotian said without any doubt: "Do as I say!"
Shi Xuedong had no choice but to blow out the lantern and move closer to Hu Xiaotian, for fear of being left behind by him.
The entire medicine depot was plunged into darkness. Hu Xiaotian looked around, and soon he discovered something. He found a faint blue light flashing not far from the severed finger. He just ignored it because his vision was disturbed by the light.
This detail, the blue light is very weak, not even comparable to the light of fireflies, and only Hu Xiaotian's super strong eyesight can detect it.
Moving the wooden frame away, Hu Xiaotian carefully picked up the glowing object, which turned out to be a blue gem the size of a mung bean.
Shi Xuedong was so frightened that his teeth chattered. He had been in charge of the Siyuan Bureau for so many years, but he had never found any treasures.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Xiao Dengzi must have discovered something. He wanted to leave with the treasure, but unexpectedly he met an uninvited guest who killed him..." Hu Xiaotian found another one with the flicker of light.
gem.
He carefully searched the place where the gem was found, and finally found a jade ring under a row of wooden shelves. Shi Xuedong immediately identified Xiao Dengzi's identity from it, and whispered: "Yes, the deceased is Xiao Dengzi.
I gave him this jade ring."
Hu Xiaotian nodded, stretched out his fingers and tapped the floor tiles below, making a hollow sound. He signaled Shi Xuedong to light the lantern again, then pried open the floor tiles. After prying open the four connected floor tiles, he found a messy side below.
The relief was a graphic lock. Hu Xiaotian shook his head. He didn't have the ability to unlock the graphic lock. The relief should be a dragon pattern, and the scales above were inlaid with small blue gems. They must be Xiao Deng's.
Zi Zai accidentally discovered this place. He had no ability to open the pattern lock, so he plucked out the gems one by one and wanted to escape with the treasure, but unexpectedly he was killed.
Shi Xuedong said in a trembling voice: "What's below... what's below?"
Hu Xiaotian shook his head, how did he know? He whispered to Shi Xuedong: "Let's leave here first. You are not allowed to disclose this matter to anyone."
Shi Xuedong nodded repeatedly, took off the key to the medicine warehouse and handed it to Hu Xiaotian: "I'll give you the key. I... I... I won't dare to come here even if I kill you."
Hu Xiaotian secretly laughed at this guy for being timid. After thinking about it, the only one who has the ability to unlock this pattern lock is Qi Qi. He whispered: "Go to the Purple Orchid Palace now, invite Her Highness the Princess, and tell me I'll drink it."
drunk."
Shi Xuedong said: "She... what if she refuses to come?"
Hu Xiaotian hooked his fingers at him and whispered something in his ear. Shi Xuedong opened his mouth in shock and said, "Is this okay?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Just go and I will take care of everything."
As expected, Qiqi came as promised. When she arrived at Siyuan Bureau, Hu Xiaotian was sitting under the grape trellis and drinking tea. He couldn't help but glared at Shi Xuedong and said, "Shi Xuedong, didn't you say he drank too much?
"
Shi Xue Dong shook his head like a rattle: "It's not ****, it was the prince who asked me to say so."
Hu Xiaotian winked, and Shi Xuedong ran away in a hurry.
Qiqi angrily sat down opposite Hu Xiaotian and snorted coldly: "You are indeed getting more and more courageous, and you actually persuaded a eunuch to lie to me."
Hu Xiaotian smiled slightly and said: "It's fake to be drunk, but it's true to shout that I like you everywhere. If you don't believe it, can I scream a few times in front of you?"
Qiqi glared at him and said: "I'm afraid of you, you are shameless, I still care about my face, tell me! Why are you still staying in the palace?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "I just remembered some things we did back then. Do you still remember what happened in the Siyuan Bureau Wine Cellar?"
Qiqi bit her lips and her pretty face warmed up slightly. She naturally remembered. Could it be that this guy invited her here so late just to have a love affair with her? Or did he know that Long Xiyue was going to do it?
When he came to Kangdu to meet him, he was worried that he would be disadvantageous to Long Xiyue, so he launched an emotional offensive to confuse himself?
Hu Xiaotian said: "It turns out that this Siyuan Bureau is indeed very interesting. In addition to the wine cellar, there is another place where secrets are hidden."
Only then did Qi Qi realize his main purpose of inviting her here, and whispered: "Where?"
Hu Xiaotian dismissed everyone, entered the medicine warehouse with Qi Qi, and took her to the place where the graphic lock was just discovered. Qi Qi judged with just one glance: "This is the Shuanglong Sea Lock. There is indeed a secret in the medicine warehouse."
"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Can you untie it?"
Qiqi did not speak, but her hands had already begun to rearrange the patterns. In just one cup of tea, the originally messy patterns had been rearranged into a pattern of two dragons going out to sea. The part of the pattern made a creaking sound and slowly sank downwards, revealing
A dark cave entrance.
Hu Xiaotian glanced at Qiqi: "How about I go down alone?"
Qiqi said: "Do you think I'm afraid? I want to go together."
Hu Xiaotian nodded and used the torch he brought to illuminate the bottom. The cave was not too deep. He jumped down first, making sure that the air inside could provide normal breathing. Then he waved to Qiqi, who jumped
, Hu Xiaotian caught her delicate body with one arm, Qiqi's pretty face heated up, this guy seemed to be taking advantage of the situation, with such a height, it was not a problem for her, she broke away from Hu Xiaotian's arm, and whispered
: "What the hell is this place?"
Hu Xiaotian shook his head and said: "I don't know, but the first person to discover this place should be Liu Yuzhang. He knows all these things in the palace." He secretly admired Liu Yuzhang in his heart. This old eunuch was so hidden that he had never thought of him back then.
There will be such unfathomable scheming.
The two walked along the underground passage for half a mile, and a stone door appeared in front of them. There were still graphic locks on the door. For Qiqi, these graphic locks were not an obstacle at all, and they could easily unlock it.
The two stone gates slowly moved to both sides, and the front suddenly became clear. A stone bridge spanned the underground river. The river was fast, and the river bed was more than ten feet below the bridge. But at the end of the stone bridge stood a pagoda, and the light on the pagoda shone.
, was actually studded with luminous pearls. Qiqi stared at the scene in front of her in stunned silence. After a long time, she murmured: "Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda, it turns out that Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda has always been hidden here."
Hu Xiaotian was shocked. He had also heard the name of the Qibao Glazed Pagoda. It was said that the Qibao Glazed Pagoda contained another skull of the Destined One. However, later the Qibao Glazed Pagoda collapsed and the Yilan Palace was built on the original site.
The palace where the Queen Mother of Tianxiang Kingdom, Long Xuanjiao, lived before her marriage. As for the skull, Long Xuanjiao later found it and secretly took it to Tianxiang Kingdom. However, Qiqi had never seen the Qibao Glazed Pagoda, so why did she think that this tower was
Qibao Glazed Pagoda?
Qiqi did not explain to Hu Xiaotian, she walked towards the stone bridge, Hu Xiaotian followed closely, Qiqi told him: "Pay attention to the pattern on the bridge deck, follow my footsteps, don't take a wrong step, otherwise this will happen."
The bridge deck will collapse."
Hu Xiaotian sighed: "Who built this underground project?"
Qiqi said: "It should be the Soldier Sage Zhuge Yunchun. I think he must have learned something from the Destiny One." With her guiding the way, the two of them quickly arrived in front of the Qibao Glazed Pagoda. Qiqi was not in a hurry.
After entering the tower, he first walked around the tower and returned to the front of the tower door. He frowned and said, "I have never seen this lock before. I don't know how to break it."
Hu Xiaotian was greatly disappointed. He did not expect that when they arrived outside the Qibao Glazed Tower, they could not get in. But then he thought about it, it would be meaningless to go in. After all, the skull preserved inside had been stolen by Hu Buwei and Long Xuanjiao, but the two of them
How did the person steal the skull? Long Xuanjiao probably didn't have that ability. Could it be that Hu Buwei was able to crack the mechanism and get into it? It seems that this is not possible.
Qiqi stared at the Seven Treasures Glazed Tower for a long time, then sighed and said, "Forget it, if we make a mistake, the whole place will collapse, and you and I will be buried here."
Hu Xiaotian nodded and said: "It's better to die than live. Although I don't object to sleeping in the same cave with you, it would be a pity to think that we have never slept together." (To be continued.)
