The hiding place of this secret passage is extremely hidden. Even at the moment when the stone door opened, Jiang Huan searched for it for a moment before finding the entrance to the secret passage behind the stone door. It turned out that it was not on the ground, but hanging in the air.
.You have to climb up to get to the secret room behind the stone door through the secret passage.
Jiang Huan climbed up the secret passage easily. The matchmaker just said "Hold on tight." Before Jiang Huan could hear the words behind her, her whole body felt empty. She felt weightless instantly and fell straight down.
Jiang Huan just opened his mouth and shouted, and his whole body was already falling rapidly down the secret passage.
There was a roar of wind in his ears, Jiang Huan closed his eyes tightly and subconsciously put his arms around his shoulders to prevent him from falling.
This secret passage was not long. Jiang Huan fell down in an instant and was caught by a huge and soft cotton pad.
The cotton pad appeared in time and saved Jiang Huan from even the slightest injury.
Jiang Huan, on the other hand, took a long breath, and then heard the same scream coming from above. She hurriedly jumped off the cotton pad, only to see Mengyu jump back and land on the pad exceptionally nimbly, as if she had not been touched by that at all.
The impact of falling extremely fast.
Seeing that Jiang Huan was fine, she hurriedly rushed forward to hold her shoulders, looked at her carefully, and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Jiang Huan was fine.
Before she could say anything more, she saw the matchmaker's body dexterously landing on the cotton pad. She stood up and put the cotton pad away with ease.
"Fifth Princess, please don't be surprised. This secret room is the most important place in Zuihong Mansion. Mr. Ji designed this to prevent outsiders from discovering it." The matchmaker stood up and apologized.
The matchmaker's attitude was sincere and humble, as if she already regarded Jiang Huan as her new master.
She respectfully made a gesture of invitation, and then led Jiang Huan inside.
Passing through a door curtain that looks like a cave, what comes into view is a huge rockery.
A small waterfall flows through the rocks and slowly converges into a carp pond below.
The carp was well fed, and the color of the carp was not an ordinary species. It even had white patterns. Jiang Huan was slightly surprised when he saw it.
"These are also some gadgets that Mr. Ji likes on weekdays. If the fifth princess doesn't like feeding carp, the matchmaker will come down every day to feed the fifth princess." The matchmaker explained as she walked inside.
This secret room didn't look very big, but it turned out that there were doors one after another, and Jiang Huan felt his feet were a little sore when he walked through them.
I just looked at it from the outside and saw that the Zuihonglou is not that long. Why is it so difficult to walk along the way?
Mengyu supported Jiang Huan and deliberately slowed down her pace, paying careful attention to the places they passed.
So far, the places where the matchmaker took the two of them passed were all places where Ji Yu usually eats, drinks and has fun, including a carp pond, a chess house, and even a room specially used to store the things Ji Yu has collected over the years.
Weird gadgets.
Jiang Huan didn't have time to stop and check, so the matchmaker silently urged her and led Jiang Huan all the way inside.
At the end of the basement, there is a huge ice cellar.
There were thousands of ice cubes placed inside. Although it was a cold winter day, when the matchmaker opened the door, Jiang Huan was still suffocated by the cold air and couldn't help but take a few steps back.
If you go into this low temperature, I'm afraid that if you stay there for a little longer, your whole person will be frozen to death.
"This is the biggest secret of Zuihonglou." The matchmaker took off a big fur cloak and put it on Jiang Huan, and then she stepped into the ice cellar.
There are hundreds of passages in this ice cellar, and inside each piece of ice, there is actually a letter and a token frozen.
These tokens are different items based on the names on the red strips tied to each ice cube.
Jiang Huan wrapped her cloak tightly, told Mengyu not to follow, and then followed the matchmaker on the ice road.
I saw that these tokens may be large or small, or they may be a small and exquisite jade pendant, or a blood-stained coat, etc. They are all different.
Jiang Huan looked at it strangely and couldn't help but stay for a while.
"This is the biggest secret of Zuihonglou." The matchmaker said with a faint smile. She turned over a name tag and revealed the word "Pang Yan", which made Jiang Huan look away instantly.
The "ice cube" belonging to Pang Yan not only contained a letter but also a package.
The material of the package looked extremely plain, not like the fabric that people like Pang Yan would use, let alone Pang Manman's items.
Jiang Huan was slightly startled when he saw such a package, and he didn't quite understand it.
"Zuihonglou secretly operates an intelligence chain. Hanging on this intelligence chain is almost the most deadly threat to every powerful person. Anyone who appears on this intelligence chain will be restrained by Zuihonglou
." The matchmaker explained. She followed Jiang Huan's gaze and looked at the piece of ice belonging to Pang Yan, but she evoked a smile with unknown meaning, "As for what kind of secrets are hidden in each piece of ice?
, some matchmakers know about it, and some are known only to Mr. Ji. Those secrets that the matchmaker doesn't know are for the fifth princess to discover by herself."
Jiang Huan stroked the ice cube, but her palms were frostbitten by the severe cold. She couldn't help but retract her hand in pain.
"These ice cubes are thousands of years old and cannot be melted by normal temperatures. If you want to melt the ice cubes and take out the contents inside, you have to add a potion specifically designed to melt the ice cubes." Matchmaker
He took out a bottle of potion from his sleeve, and as soon as he dropped a small amount of it, the ice cube quickly melted and made a hole.
And the hole keeps expanding until the package inside can be taken out.
It's just that after a certain time limit, the melted hole quickly re-glued and turned into the ice again, as if it had never melted.
Jiang Huan was a little amazed and couldn't help but want to reach out and touch the ice cube again, but this time she was stopped by the matchmaker before she could touch it.
"You cannot touch the newly bonded ice cube directly. If you touch it, your skin may burst, or your fingers may have to be cut off." The matchmaker warned with a serious look on her face.
Jiang Huan was so startled that she even forgot to withdraw her fingers, and was only held in the matchmaker's hand for a while.
"The fifth princess must be careful here. In order to prevent others from stealing, there are many small traps set up to prevent others from stealing." The matchmaker smiled slyly, but she lost her solemn look just now and looked at him with special eyes.
