Chapter 285 290. Stone Chamber Wind Chime
The sound startled everyone and made them look over.
When he saw the four stone doors open, Lin Jun opened his mouth in surprise.
"Is this voice-controlled? And it even picks people!"
Then he was even more surprised when he saw the big snake moving.
"Is it dead or alive?"
Lolita paused, just hearing these words. She looked at the snake, which was neither dead nor alive, with pity and said, "It is both alive and dead."
"ah?"
Lin Jun looked confused and didn't understand.
"The art of controlling Gu in southern Xinjiang was particularly famous during its heyday a thousand years ago, because they loved using certain creatures as carriers, turning them into mechanical puppets to protect certain things."
"These puppets are immortal and can also serve as combat aids."
"As you can see, it's because we didn't attack it rashly when we came in that its attack capability wasn't activated."
"And the reason my music was able to activate the mechanism is because it contains the art of controlling poison, temporarily awakening the poisonous insects within the snake."
Lolita's easy-to-understand explanation made everyone suddenly realize the truth, and at the same time, they became even more wary of the Gu.
Han Yixiao walked to the nearest stone door, inside which was a long passage, and no one knew where it led to.
Chen Yang and Yu Zhiming also walked to the stone gate closest to them, and there was a long passage inside.
Several people took turns looking at the four stone doors and found that they were all exactly the same.
“How do I choose this?”
Yu Zhiming scratched his head, looking embarrassed.
"How about we go our separate ways?"
Chen Yang thought about it and it didn't seem appropriate. Going separately would be too dangerous and not advisable.
"Just pick one. If it doesn't work, you can just come back."
Lin Jun said carelessly.
After thinking about it, they decided that this was the only option.
"Order the troops and generals, and take whichever road is directed."
Jian Cheng'an was childish for once. He selected a passage by calling out orders and then walked in first.
Who knew that after everyone entered the stone gate, it closed with a bang.
Everyone looked at each other.
"Let's go!"
Han Yixiao glanced at the closed stone door and walked forward.
This passage seemed to be particularly long. It took everyone almost a quarter of an hour to finally get out of the passage. At the end of the passage was another stone chamber.
However, this stone chamber seems to be a living room, and a woman's living room.
Lolita looked at the exquisite hairpins on the dressing table, as well as the tools used by women to draw eyebrows and lips, and her eyes were fixed on the painting on the wall.
The painting shows a distinctive stilt house. On the upper floor, a woman in red is holding an ancient flute and gazing into the distance. As she is seen from the back, her face cannot be seen clearly.
When Lolita saw the painting, she concluded that this stone chamber was the saint's living room.
"The Saint's living room?"
"Really?"
"Then let's look carefully. There must be a mechanism here."
When they heard this, they immediately became excited. They didn't expect to get a clue so soon.
They tried everything, including the bed, the cabinet, the dressing table, the jewelry box, and even under the bed, but they couldn't find a single mechanism.
Finally, Han Yixiao and Lolita's eyes fell on the string of wind chimes hanging on the gauze curtain at the same time.
It was a string of pure white wind chimes made of white feathers and pink crystals.
Lolita sat on the edge of the bed, and under the expectant gaze of others, she reached out and gently pulled. With a click, the entire bed rose up into the air.
She looked at the steps exposed under the bed and the dark hole, then stood up and walked down.
