Heaven is like a man

Chapter 11

As the wall collapsed, the secret room behind it also slowly appeared.After the dust cleared, the three tentatively walked into the secret room.

The secret room is brightly lit with long bright lights, clean and bright, like a study room that is often used by someone, but the overall appearance is completely different from the scene on the other side of the pothole.

There is a huge stone door at the farthest point of the secret room, and the tightly closed stone door seals off the entire room.There is a thick wooden desk in the middle, and around the wall next to the desk, there are a bunch of picture scrolls of characters hanging all over the place.

Xu Yihang approached the wall and carefully looked at the scrolls, only to see that every scroll was a portrait of a woman.There are more than 20 picture scrolls, and the ages of women on more than 20 picture scrolls are different, but they are very similar.

Among them are children who are still learning how to speak, girls who are in their prime, and girls who are generous.

Xu Yihang stared at the woman in one of the scrolls for a long time, looked at the painting for a while, then looked at Ziyuan for a while, and after comparing the two, he greeted with doubts:

"Hey, stinky girl, come here~ Do you see how the person in this painting looks like you were carved out of the same mold?"

Ziyuan was following Yu Huai to observe the stone door in the basement, when she heard Xu Yihang's words, she just felt that he was talking nonsense again, and she was completely indifferent.

Ziyuan didn't even turn her head: "Stinky boy. I think you've been pestering our young master for too long. I haven't seen many girls. Everyone I see looks like..."

Ziyuan was still on the verge of speaking, but Xu Yihang forcibly pulled her over.Zi Yuan turned around and saw the picture scroll, her voice suddenly paused, and then she continued with an unbelievable expression: "...you look too much like me!"

When Yu Huai heard Zi Yuan's words, he also walked over curiously.Thinking about it, Su Jindai and Ziyuan are twin sisters with similar appearance, it is not uncommon to see a portrait of Su Jindai who looks like Ziyuan in Tianfang Palace.

However, there are actually some subtle differences between the two. Now Yu Huai stared at the woman in the painting for a long time, but felt more and more that the painting on it was Ziyuan, not Su Jindai.

Yu Huai then looked around at all the scrolls around him, and after a quick scan, he said in surprise, "Not just that one, but all the women on the scrolls here are Ziyuan."

After listening, Ziyuan observed all the scrolls on the wall, and said to herself: "This...how could it be?"

At this time, Yu Huai seemed to suddenly think of something, and a thought flashed in his eyes.Xu Yihang keenly captured this moment, and immediately asked Yu Huai: "Little benefactor, what did you remember?"

Yu Huai opened his mouth and replied: "When I was at Tianwumen in Jinling, Tianfang Palace would send people to visit every year. I thought it was just a simple concern."

Xu Yihang wondered: "Does this have another purpose?"

Yu Huai nodded and continued: "From now on, it seems that the painters who come to visit every year should be specially arranged by Palace Master Su. After they returned to Tianfang Palace, they used their memory to draw Ziyuan's appearance every year. Draw it down.

Unexpectedly, Palace Master Su made such an arrangement for more than 20 years, during which time he never heard him mention it, and never let anyone find out. "

After hearing this story, Xu Yihang couldn't help but marvel: "It's hard to see the old man, so I can only secretly see things and think about others. I didn't expect that Palace Master Su is also a lover."

Ziyuan stayed where she was, and turned her head willfully after a while.Distraught, he simply stopped looking at those scrolls, and just squeezed out a few words:

"So what? Anyway, he has never been to Tianwumen himself, playing this little trick, why pretend to be so affectionate?"

So for so many years, Ziyuan just acted like no one cared, she had already built up many high walls in her heart, and she was used to besieging herself layer by layer.

Seeing Zi Yuan's reaction, Xu Yihang pushed his elbow against Yu Huai next to him, and said in a low voice, "Little benefactor, why don't you go and untie it?"

Yu Huai stared at Xu Yihang's restless elbow, patted the place on his upper body where he had rubbed dirt, and said calmly:

"At this time, let Ziyuan girl be quiet. There are some things that others say are reasonable and pleasant, but if the person concerned does not really let go, it will sound absurd.

Old Xu listened to my persuasion, and would rather say a hundred words afterwards than say a single word in the middle of the game. "

After listening to Yu Huai's words, Xu Yihang thought to himself that a piece of indifferent, sober and refined iron ore had spoken.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Xu Yihang wanted to change the subject, so he asked Ziyuan loudly: "By the way, you bitch. You have been observing for so long, can the stone door of the secret room be opened?"

Ziyuan put away her disappointed expression, and still did not forget to reply to Xu Yihang: "Stinky boy, do you have no eyes? This stone door is heavy and bare. It can only be opened through certain mechanisms." .”

Xu Yihang turned his head to one side, grinned his mouth, and couldn't help letting out a sigh of relief, his face was full of kindness like a donkey's liver and lungs.

Seeing Xu Yihang's annoyed expression, Yu Huai couldn't help but smiled coldly, then patted Xu Yihang's shoulder: "I told you not to provoke her at this time."

Yu Huai went on to say: "Don't worry about this anymore, come and join me to find the mechanism that can open the stone gate."

The three of them carefully checked their surroundings, but found nothing.In the end, they could only pin their hopes on the book case in the middle of the secret room, and the three of them finally approached the book case and began to study it.

The desk in the middle of the secret room is made of dense wooden materials. It looks seamless and integrated, and there is no mechanism at all. It's like a table grew out of a tree, and then it was picked off and placed here.

Yu Huai touched the table top of the desk with his hands, then looked at Xu Yihang's dusty coat, suddenly he had a flash of inspiration as if he had thought of a solution.

Yu Huai stared at the book case seriously, and suddenly said to Xu Yihang next to him, "Old Xu, take off the cloak you are wearing and give it to me."

Xu Yihang couldn't help but suspect that he had heard it wrong, and was shocked: "Huh?"

Seeing that Xu Yihang hadn't moved, Yu Huai turned around and looked at Xu Yihang seriously: "Give it to me, and you will give it to me."

Yu Huai spoke seriously, Xu Yihang didn't ask any further questions, so he took off his cloak and handed it over for no apparent reason, revealing the inner lining of his white gown.

Holding Xu Yihang's dusty cloak in his hand, Yu Huai slapped the desk violently.Seeing that the dust on the cloak had been shaken onto the desk, Yu Huai gently brushed away all the dust with his hands, and after a while, he blew away the dust on the desk with a wave of his sleeves.

At this time, the dust left on the desk appeared to outline an extremely small square, which was supposed to be the organ on the desk.

Seeing this, Xu Yihang couldn't help but praise: "Little benefactor, I didn't expect this to be really yours!"

Yu Huai turned around and returned the cloak, without responding, but looked at Xu Yihang for a while.Then he suddenly pulled a hair off his head, and said unhurriedly, "Old Xu, I will lend you a hair."

Before Xu Yihang had time to put on his cloak, he was "countered" by Yu Huai.Reluctantly, I couldn't beat him, so I could only touch my head angrily: "My little benefactor, I have to pay it back!"

The mechanism on the desk is too small, and it is impossible to press and trigger it with fingers.At the moment, Yu Huai held the "borrowed" hair, instilled internal force through the fingertips, and kneaded the hair into needles.Then press it lightly, and the grid sinks to trigger the mechanism.

Yu Huai put the used hair back into Xu Yihang's hands, and said nonchalantly, "Master Xu, I'll return it to you right away. I didn't expect your hair to be quite useful."

Xu Yihang was naturally furious: "I didn't mean to pay it back like that!"

Then the three of them looked at Shimen, held their breath and waited for a long time, but Shimen remained completely still.

The scene was extremely quiet for a while, and the three of them coughed a few times in embarrassment at the same time.Just when everyone thought that the trigger of the organ had failed, a small opening was suddenly opened on the wall next to it, and a square metal box was placed inside the small opening.

Xu Yihang stepped forward to check, saw the inscription on the square iron box, and was surprised: "This... this is actually... a Linglong box."

Yu Huai and Zi Yuan were also shocked after hearing this, and they gathered around one after another.Could it be that the exquisite box that has been rumored to have disappeared for many years is really hidden in this secret room?

Zi Yuan said: "Master, didn't the old beggar from the beggar gang say that there are some secret books of the heavenly magic in this exquisite box, maybe we can use this heavenly magic to escape."

Yu Huai immediately turned back to Ziyuan in disappointment and said: "I think opening this exquisite box is much more difficult than opening that stone door.

As the treasure of Tianfang Palace, the Linglong Box is rumored to be a mechanism treasure box forged from thousand-year-old black iron.Unless you know how to open it, it can be said to be unbreakable, even if you spend your whole life in vain. "

The three of them didn't have much interest in Tianshen Gong, and they didn't care how to open the Linglong box, but they just regretted that the only clue to open the stone door was suddenly cut off.

Ziyuan regained her dejected look: "Young Master, what should we do now?"

Yu Huai sat down leisurely and calmly replied to Zi Yuan, "Wait!"

Ziyuan and Xu Yihang looked surprised, and Yu Huai continued to explain: "I have always wondered why the pothole designed by Su Chengyu was connected to such a secret room.

Now that I see those picture scrolls and the Linglong box, I just want to understand. Perhaps Su Chengyu himself did not expect that the pothole he designed happened to be connected to the secret room with the Linglong box in Tianfang Palace. "

"There is such a coincidence in the world?" Xu Yihang looked surprised.

Yu Huai nodded: "Since this is the hiding place of Linglong Box, and this secret room doesn't seem to have been abandoned for a long time, then Palace Master Su will come sooner or later, we just wait and see what happens."

After Yu Huai finished speaking, Xu Yihang and Zi Yuan also felt a little more at ease, and just waited quietly.

Xu Yihang on the side felt bored, picked up the Linglong box and started to fiddle with it, but Yu Huai kept his integrity and didn't touch the things of Tianfang Palace casually.

Xu Yihang accidentally discovered that there was a jade-shaped groove at the bottom of the Linglong box, and the size and shape of the groove exactly matched the piece of jade he had lost.

Could it be that this exquisite box that was hidden on purpose is related to the piece of jade that I lost?Perhaps this is the reason why Uncle Li asked him to come to Tianfang Palace.

Just as Xu Yihang was still thinking, there was a sudden vibration from the stone door of the secret room, and then it slowly moved to both sides to open.

The three of them couldn't help being startled at first, and then looked at the past with their backs turned away, only to see several familiar figures appearing behind Shimen...
