Self-cultivation in the world of monster hunting

Chapter 23

Sijun put down Lu Xiang without changing his face, picked a few bamboo leaves planted in the courtyard, and threw them between his fingers.

A touch of green slipped into the room along the window, and then quickly dispersed into several green winds, going straight to the backs of the necks of several disciples. After a while, several of them fainted at the same time, and fell to the ground silently.

"It's amazing." Lu Xiang applauded.

Sijun was indifferent to his praise, and then swaggered into Wen Renxian's bedroom.

This bedroom is very different from Lu Xiang's imagination.I thought that Wen Renxian would place some spiritual artifacts for decoration, but who knew that there were many calligraphy and paintings hanging in Wen Renxian's bedroom, all of which were signed by Wen Renxian himself.

"Although my appreciation of calligraphy and painting is not very high... But I think his paintings are not very good, and his craftsmanship is very strong." Lu Xiang looked at a picture of a tiger, and then said, "He likes to draw very much. so much."

Sijun said: "Don't worry about these, find the secret room."

Lu Xiang said "Oh" and started to act.

The entrance to the secret room was actually not well hidden. Sijun quickly found an iron handle on the back of several books on the bookshelf. When he slowly dragged it, the tall bookshelf turned slightly, revealing the secret room behind.

The two looked at each other and walked in.

The secret room is not difficult to find, but what is difficult is what you have to face after entering.

Lu Xiang and Sijun are in the empty secret room, facing three closed iron doors.

"This... how to choose?" Lu Xiang looked hard at the three iron gates and found that they were exactly the same.They are all hung with big black iron locks shining brightly, and the doors are also made of black iron, painted with bright red paint, which has an inexplicable and menacing smell.

Sijun said: "No matter which one you choose, there are organs, the difference is whether there is something we are looking for behind the organs."

Lu Xiang continued: "I think it is very likely that there is at least one door behind which there is nothing important, only a mechanism, and someone deliberately crashed into it to die."

Sijun said: "Well, try your luck."

While talking, Sijun had already walked in front of a door, Lu Xiang hurriedly followed, muttering cautiously: "Whenever the protagonist in the storybook encounters luck, he will have bad luck, and he is close to death."

Sijun raised his hand and tapped Lu Xiang's forehead, and said calmly, "I won't die."

"Of course I won't die. Have you seen the script of the dead protagonist? I'm a man chosen by heaven." Lu Xiangxian was a little frustrated after showing off, and sighed, "It's just..."

Before finishing Sijun, Lu Xiang continued: "It won't hurt you either."

"Huh?" Lu Xiang was stunned suddenly, and felt a little strange in his heart, itchy and numb.

But Sijun didn't explain too much, snapped his fingers, and the ball of flying fire appeared again, flying obediently in front of them.

Sijun picked up the lock and looked at it carefully. Lu Xiang thought he was stumped by the black iron lock, so he actively took out Lu Xiaoji, hugged him and shouted: "Little chicken, you're grinding your teeth!"

Lu Xiaoji opened his mouth and bit down on the Xuantie lock. With a "click", the Xuantie lock snapped.

Then Lu Xiaoji chewed the iron in his mouth with relish.

"Chew it and throw it up, don't swallow it." After Lu Xiang finished speaking, he stuffed Lu Xiaoji back, waiting for Sijun to praise him with a happy face.

But Sijun just glanced at Lu Xiang and pushed open the iron gate.

A gust of oncoming wind blew goose bumps all over Lu Xiang's body.

Sijun entered the door first and said, "Follow me."

After finishing speaking, the two walked into this unknown door facing the cool wind together.

Inside the door is a long stone tunnel, with oil lamps hanging on both sides of the stone wall. As they walked, Fei Huo would light the oil lamps along the way.

After walking for a long time, it finally reached the end, and there was another door at the end, this time it was a simple stone door.

There are no carvings on the stone gate, and a charm is attached as a lock, but the charm is very weak. When Sijun pushes lightly, silver cracked starlight flashes on the door, and the spell is broken.

The two walked in, and Fei Huo also flew in.

The tunnel has not changed, but there is still a stone gate a foot away.

"Why do you need to set up a stone gate?" Lu Xiang was a little puzzled, "Could it be that the charm of this gate is more powerful?"

Sijun said, "Try."

After speaking, the two moved forward again, and the moment they raised their hands to push the door, they stopped at the same time and glanced at each other.

There are oddities.

Their thinking was still connected immediately, so there was no need to explain to each other, and they directly began to analyze the weirdness.

Lu Xiang thought for a while and said, "If there are powerful spells that can block intruders, there is no need to use two doors and two spells."

Sijun said, "So the function of the door is not to block people."

"If it's not to block people... what is it for?" Lu Xiang looked at the empty stone wall and said, "By the way, there are no oil lamps on the stone wall between the two gates."

Sijun immediately reacted: "So the function of the first door is not to block people, but to block sparks."

"Yes! Most of the organs here are related to fire, and they must be ignited with a little spark. Wen Renxian should also come in here, so it is safer to make an extra door." Lu Xiang couldn't help pulling Sijun shook his sleeves and said, "We are so smart."

Sijun grabbed Lu Xiang's wrist to prevent him from making trouble, and then said: "You can't light the fire inside, so you won't go in."

Lu Xiang bit his finger in embarrassment, and then said: "Then what can I do? What if you go in alone and encounter danger?"

"What can I do?" Xingyuan didn't know when his head popped out of the Qiankun bag, and said, "Hold it, you won't be afraid of anything if you hold it."

Lu Xiang retorted solemnly: "If you hold it, will you be too late to react when encountering a sudden situation?"

"Wow, you really thought about it seriously?" Xingyuan rolled his eyes quickly, and then suddenly threw a pale yellow bead to Lu Xiang.

Lu Xiang caught it and found that the bead could actually emit light. Although the light was not strong and could only illuminate within a few steps, it was quite warm.

"What is this? It doesn't seem to be a gem, but it looks better than a gem." Lu Xiang held it and looked carefully, but he didn't see any tricks.

Xingyuan said: "The pearl of the night. It is made of my petals. After the petals are picked off, they will respond to me. They can emit light within a certain distance. The closer they are, the brighter they will be."

Lu Xiang looked down and found that Xingyuan's head was indeed bald.So Lu Xiang immediately reached out to touch Xingyuan, and said: "Xiaohua is indeed my good friend. When I go out, I will make this night pearl into a bracelet and wear it every day."

Xingyuan dodged Lu Xiang's hand with a dark face, and said, "Fuck you, I just don't want to be dragged down to death by you. Tighten the bag tightly, I have no intention of going into danger with you."

After saying that, Xingyuan retracted the Qiankun bag.

Lu Xiang smiled all over his face, and said to Sijun, "Then let's put out the fire and go in now."

Sijun raised his hand and spread his five fingers, and the flying fire returned to his palm, and when he pinched it, the fire was extinguished in his palm.

At this moment, only the faint luminous pearl of Xingyuan is still emitting a slight light.

Sijun took a step forward, and put his right hand on the second stone door. In an instant, the silver starlight shattered again, and the stone door was easily pushed open. At the same time, a very subtle stench came out.

Lu Xiang couldn't tell exactly what kind of gas it was, but he could guess that it would ignite when it met a fire, and if it wasn't good, it could burn people on the outside and tender on the inside in an instant.

Sijun stepped in slowly, and Lu Xiang followed behind, raising the Ye Mingzhu in his hand, trying to see the scene inside as clearly as possible.

The stone door closed silently, and a faint silver light flashed behind the door.

After walking two steps, he had a clear view of all the scenes in this secret room.

This is a square secret room with only one door to enter. It is about twenty steps long and wide, and the space is not large.And in this small secret room, there are ten wooden shelves, and each floor is full of things.

Sijun and Lu Xiang slowly approached the nearest shelf, and found that there were all kinds of safety charms, universe bags, and chains to lock demons.

Lu Xiang took a safety talisman casually and said, "It doesn't look like these things are precious objects, they should be defective products made by Wenren and his son... It's a pity that only the two of us have seen them now. He is a century-old family, even if you go out and say that he is fake, no one will believe it, so you have to find a way to let more people see it."

Sijun was noncommittal, obviously he was not interested in this matter, and what he had been wanting to investigate was the matter of the sword.

Lu Xiang was not disappointed either, and still said to himself: "I'll take a few pieces to show Brother Bo first, and then we'll look for clues about the sword. If not, let's go, so as not to startle the snake."

The two continued to walk in, and as soon as they took a step, Lu Xiang muttered strangely: "I always feel that the protagonist will not be so lucky... Is this mechanism so easily cracked by us?"

After saying this, Sijun stopped his steps and turned his head to look at Lu Xiang. In between the glances, they both saw a sentence from each other's eyes——maybe the mechanism of the two stone gates is just a cover , In this secret room, there are organs!
