The palace was built very roughly, and it was obviously not for enjoyment. Moreover, as soon as you entered the palace gate, you found that it was empty. There was only a lonely low table on a few steps, and two more cases were placed on each side under the steps next to it.
The rest of the place where guests were being entertained was frighteningly empty. There were no decorative vases or incense burners. The pillars supporting the scene looked bare, with no patterns or gilding. Cheng Muyan and the others were all confused.
That's it?
What is this place used for? Is it possible for people to live in such a simple place? Moreover, the outside is so tightly guarded that they all think that this place is a treasure house with treasures of heaven and earth hidden underneath, as well as spiritual mines and spiritual veins. But it turns out that this place is a treasure house.
It’s just a bluffing illusion! It’s just that!
Just when Cheng Muyan was thinking about letting go of his spiritual consciousness to explore the palace, there was a sudden noise from the front, and he saw the wooden screen surrounding the ladder desk, an inconspicuous one that was very crudely made.
The screen suddenly moved!
And it turned ninety degrees silently without making any sound.
Cheng Muyan stared at the strange screen. The other three also noticed something was wrong and followed Cheng Muyan towards the place she saw.
There was a subtle wind sound that could not be detected, and then Cheng Muyan saw a pair of feet walking towards them quickly. She thought deeply, and the four of them looked up.
But it was a tall man with a paralyzed face. The man's eyes were dull, and he just made a gesture of greeting, but did not say a word.
Cheng Muyan frowned and stared at the man up and down several times, but the man didn't seem to see Cheng Muyan's rude eyes and still leaned slightly sideways to invite them in. His face was still that paralyzed face, that's how he looked.
How stiff.
It's like someone who just died and was "resurrected" again, so the body temperature is lost, both the body and the face will appear stiff and numb, without pain, numbness or itching, it doesn't matter whether you have hands or not.
, it’s like wood. Will the wood hurt and cry?
Obviously not.
Cheng Muyan thought for a moment, then waved and followed the man's footsteps up the steps.
After going up a few stairs and seeing the scene behind the open screen, Cheng Muyan knew that he had made a mistake. The shabby palace outside that seemed to be unfinished was really just a facade!
There are several passages connected by screens behind the screen. It is not difficult to imagine that this place was a forbidden area before the screen was closed. Of course, the screen is wide and tall. Even if you stand on the steps, if the screen is not opened, people outside can
Unexpectedly, there is such a unique layout inside. The people who originally designed this palace were very ingenious.
Cheng Muyan walked through the corridor without looking sideways. She wanted to see who the person behind the scenes was, and why they accurately captured their itinerary as soon as they entered the city, and also asked Lei Zhudan to drag them along.
Live them so that the strong man with Chinese character can come to greet him personally, oh no, it should be escorting, yes, although everyone on the way has a kind attitude, Cheng Muyan is not a fool, how can he live like this?
Like in the novel, where are coincidences flying all over the place?
Besides, the adult they were about to see was not an idiot or a retarded person. Even an idiot and a mentally retarded person would not be able to sit still. However, this adult did not even check their information, nor did he care about the people behind them.
They were invited in so hurriedly, so...why is this?
Or is it that this gentleman was held hostage, and the one who held him hostage wanted the lives of four of them, oh no, seven of them?
Cheng Muyan's thoughts were spinning rapidly, and his spiritual consciousness was quietly released.
His consciousness passed through the short screen, and inside was a luxurious palace. It was quite luxurious and ostentatious, as if he wished that even the ceiling was inlaid with a layer of spiritual stones, but there was no human atmosphere inside.
Brushing aside the gaudy decorative tulle, Cheng Muyan's vision gradually moved forward, bypassing the miscellaneous screen seats and the like, and looking towards the soft couch in the innermost room. There were still subtle marks on the soft couch, and on the table.
The aura-filled tea was still steaming faintly, indicating that this person was obviously still here just now, but happened to be hiding right after they entered the palace.
What's wrong with this...?
Cheng Muyan quickly searched the entire palace and found no one. He withdrew his consciousness and Cheng Muyan looked calm, lowering his eyelids to hide the complicated emotions in his eyes.
The four people, together with the stiff-faced guy, entered the central hall where no one was there.
The big man with dull eyes looked even more stunned. He seemed to have never encountered such a situation before, so he was unable to deal with such things.
After a while, the big man turned around with a paralyzed expression, and made an invitation gesture to the four of them again towards the empty passage that he had just walked through.
Cheng Muyan, Qing Huan, Qing Jiu, Lan Wenqian: "..."
It's poisonous, damn!
However, since they were now staying on someone else's territory, Cheng Muyan and the four of them compromised, turning around and walking back with a straight face.
Cheng Muyan followed them, but suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, and his consciousness turned into a sharp sword and struck down the palace!
After a short period of darkness, a little light gradually appeared in front of her eyes. Cheng Muyan looked to the left and right. Sure enough, a fluorescent stone lamp appeared in front of her, and another long passage appeared in front of her.
However, Cheng Muyan didn't want to go on an adventure. Her consciousness was fragile. If she encountered something and was hit before she could react, she would probably suffer from hemiplegia and cerebral palsy. So Cheng Muyan made a special mark and put her consciousness on it again.
Consciousness retreated into his own body, and then continued to follow the others out of the short corridor without looking back.
When they were thrown into the hall outside, Cheng Muyan and the four of them still hadn't recovered. They always felt that this Hongmen Banquet was a bit anticlimactic. It created a terrifying atmosphere at the beginning and everything was well-done. But in the end, you let me in and gave it to you immediately.
I played the empty city strategy, and even the owner ran away immediately.
The four people walked out of the palace door with slightly dazed expressions, and the slightly heavy door was closed behind them.
"Why did you come out so quickly?" The steward who was about to go back, but felt uneasy about his conscience and came back to guard the palace door, exclaimed when he saw them, "Did you go in to see the adults? Why are you like this?
Coming out soon?"
"I didn't see it. There was no one inside, so we were invited out again." Cheng Muyan said very honestly.
