There are only three passers-by on the fifth floor!
In addition to the lovely round-faced woman and the graceful young man Luo Chen saw on the screen on the first floor, there was also Han Chen.
Of course, including Luo Chen, there are now four people!
Having heard the discussion on the first floor, Luo Chen now also knows that the woman's name is Lin Xueyi and the young man's name is Su Mo.
The three of them were standing in front of the long table with their backs to Luo Chen, frowning and looking at the wine glasses on the table.
When Luo Chen appeared on the fifth floor, these three people noticed it immediately and turned around to look at Luo Chen.
Looking at Luo Chen's overly young face and his late-stage True Yuan realm cultivation, Lin Xueyi and Su Mo both had looks of surprise on their faces.
But, that’s all!
Seeing Luo Chen wearing ordinary clothes, Lin Xueyi and Su Mo quickly returned to normal. After all, they were not only at the late stage of the True Yuan realm, but also alchemists!
However, when Han Chen saw Luo Chen, he immediately took two steps forward:
"Haha! Junior Brother Luo is here too? I didn't expect to see Junior Brother Luo again so soon!"
With a loyal smile on his face, Han Chen cupped his hands toward Luo Chen as he spoke, as if he were seeing his fellow disciples.
"Junior brother is not worthy of the title, just call me by my name!"
Looking at Han Chen with a half-smile, Luo Chen nodded.
As the saying goes, don't hit someone with a smiling face. Although he knew that Han Chen was nothing, since he greeted him with a smiling face, Luo Chen would not be left behind.
But despite this, after finishing speaking, Luo Chen ignored Han Chen and looked at the entire fifth floor.
The fifth floor is much smaller, but the white marble walls make the attic still look bright.
There was also a small long table beside the stairs leading to the sixth floor, and a maid stood behind the table.
The difference is that there is a door at the stairway leading to the sixth floor. The door is locked, blocking the way to the sixth floor.
Behind the maid, there is also a wooden cabinet with several drawers.
"Guest, you came at the right time!"
Just as Luo Chen was looking at the wooden cabinet, the maid behind the long table suddenly smiled at Luo Chen and said:
"Only one person from our fifth floor can go up to the sixth floor every day. None of these people have succeeded yet. You still have a chance to come up now!"
After saying that, the maid waved to Luo Chen again, signaling Luo Chen to come over.
With a smile on his face, Luo Chen walked slowly to the long table and stood on Su Mo's left side.
When Luo Chen stood still, the maid pointed to the lock of the door at the top of the stairs and introduced:
"The rule on our floor is that if you find the key to this lock and open this door, you can go up to the sixth floor."
As she spoke, the maid pointed to the wooden cabinet behind her and continued:
"The key to the lock is in the drawers on the wooden cabinet. Without touching the drawer, you only have one chance to open one of the drawers. If there is no key inside, it means that the entry has failed!"
Hearing this, Luo Chen looked away from the door and looked at the wooden cabinet again.
There are ten drawers neatly opened on the wooden cabinet. Each drawer is exactly the same, but is numbered from one to ten.
The entire wooden cabinet is also engraved with array patterns, and the soul power cannot be detected inside the drawer.
Seeing this, Luo Chen's eyes narrowed:
"Relying on luck or guessing?"
With suspicious eyes, Luo Chen looked back and looked at the maid doubtfully.
The drawers are exactly the same, and cannot be detected by soul power, nor can they be touched. With ten drawers, the chance is ten to one. If there is no prompt, you will have to be lucky to guess correctly.
But before the maid could speak, Lin Xueyi pointed at the glasses of wine on the table and said to Luo Chen:
"Well, here's the hint? As long as you understand what these glasses of wine mean, you can get the key!"
After saying that, Lin Xueyi puffed her mouth, pointed at the bulge on her face, and continued to look at the glasses of wine on the table.
"Miss Lin is right!"
At this time, the maid answered and introduced to Luo Chen again:
"There are nine glasses of wine on the table. Each glass of wine is different. Their respective wine names are engraved on the glasses, and the serial number of the drawer where the key is located is hidden in these glasses of wine."
Hearing this, Luo Chen looked at Lin Xueyi, and then also looked at the nine glasses of wine on the table.
The nine glasses of wine were neatly arranged three horizontally and three vertically. Each wine glass had the same size, color and characteristics, and the same amount of wine inside. The only difference was that the wine inside had different colors and different names.
"Jinyan wine, drunken soul liquid, spiritual dew, drunken breeze, purple bamboo brew, cold pool fragrance, blue and white mellow, blood jade spring, Sichunzi!"
Luo Chen crossed his chest with both hands and held his chin with the other hand. He looked at the name and color of the wine on the glass and pondered for a while.
Later, seeing Luo Chen's thoughtful look, Han Chen moved closer behind Luo Chen, scratched his head and said sheepishly:
"Junior brother Luo, what have you gained from this? I wonder if you can give me a reminder? Senior brother is a little stupid!"
"laugh!"
As soon as Han Chen's voice fell, before Luo Chen could react, Su Mo next to him chuckled and said to Han Chen:
"Brother Han, after all, you are also a genius alchemist. Even you didn't notice it. Do you think he, an ordinary warrior, could notice anything? With so much free time, you might as well think more about it yourself!"
"Brother Su doesn't know something!"
Han Chen turned to look at Su Mo and said with a naive smile: "Junior brother Luo Chen is not an ordinary warrior. He is also an intermediate alchemist and the disciple of Master Wanbao Zhaiyan. He is not ordinary!"
"oh?"
When Su Mo heard this, the smile on his face dropped and he looked at Luo Chen again.
Lin Xueyi over there also looked away from the wine glass at this time and looked at Luo Chen again, but her eyes were full of curiosity.
Luo Chen ignored the looks between the two men. At this time, he narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Han Chen.
Han Chen still had a loyal smile on his face, bending slightly and showing a humble look. Anyone who saw him couldn't help but praise him for his honesty and loyalty.
If Luo Chen hadn't known about Han Chen, he would have been quite fond of that smile.
But now, Luo Chen is wary of this smiling face.
As the saying goes, a biting dog never barks. Han Chen just revealed his identity without his consent, obviously with ulterior motives.
Didn't you see a hint of hostility in Su Mo's eyes after hearing that Luo Chen was an alchemist?
Before, Luo Chen was an ordinary warrior, and there was no conflict over interests, so no one cared about Luo Chen.
But now that Luo Chen has become an intermediate alchemist, it's different.
Judging from Luo Chen's age, it doesn't take a second thought to know that he will participate in tomorrow's Qingdan Competition. Everyone present is a young alchemist. Now that there is an intermediate genius alchemist, everyone will be a strong opponent tomorrow.
No hostility!
However, even if Han Chen greeted him with a smile, Luo Chen would not be upset and lose the rank!
With a half-smile on his face, Luo Chen looked at Han Chen and said:
"Alchemist Han didn't find the key when he came first. How could Luo know anything when he came here? But looking at how relaxed Alchemist Han is, he must be confident. I wonder if Alchemist Han can share it with us? Even if I can't wait to go up to the sixth floor.
, so that we can solve this problem and express our joy!"
"Yes, that's it!"
As soon as Luo Chen's voice fell, Lin Xueyi immediately answered the words in a lively manner, frowning, rubbing the corners of her clothes, and said sadly to Han Chen:
"I've been here for a long time, but I can't figure it out. It makes me so uncomfortable! If you know something, tell me quickly. If you're right, we won't fight you. You can just go up to the sixth floor by yourself.
Yes, I just want to know the answer!”
"Brother Han, if you have guessed something, why don't you tell me about it?"
At this time, Su Mo also looked at Han Chen curiously.
Facing the gazes of the three people, Han Chen smiled awkwardly:
"The three of you have misunderstood Han. If Han guessed something, he would definitely tell the three of you, but now he has found nothing!"
After saying that, Han Chen bowed apologetically to several people, then said no more and walked to the table with his head lowered.
But before leaving, Han Chen showed Luo Chen a loyal smile again, but that smile was more loyal than before.
Seeing this, Lin Xueyi looked disappointed, turned around again, and looked at the wine glass on the table.
Su Mo looked at Han Chen, then at Luo Chen, and finally put his eyes on the table.
Luo Chen, with his arms folded across his chest, looked at Han Chen's side face, slightly raised the corners of his mouth, and then turned around as well.
Just like that, the four of them stood in a row, looking at the nine glasses of wine on the table in front of them, and pondered for a while...
