As soon as the entrance to the cave opened, Yang Lan'er's spiritual consciousness instantly knew the direction to go in. She went all the way inside along the passage and soon reached the end. She "saw" a wall blocking all the way.
Moreover, the wall also blocked her spiritual consciousness, making it impossible for her to detect what was going on inside.
The reason why she thought there was another world behind the wall, rather than the end where there was nothing, was because of the subtle function of her spiritual consciousness, which allowed her to discover a slot for the jade pendant in a hidden place. It seemed that it should be the magical "keyhole".
The distance from the entrance to the end of the passage is very long. There are traces of many people's activities in front, and the original mechanisms have all been destroyed. Only about ten meters away have not been touched.
It can be seen that the ghost master was telling the truth, and he was indeed almost successful.
Naturally, these mechanisms were not marked on the map, which was why the people from the Vatican were unable to take action, and they had to find a ghost master who was familiar with their sect.
I think that Ghost Master must have some ancestral knowledge left behind, and he must have some understanding of the mechanism, otherwise, he might not have been able to travel so far in three years.
"Hiss." The two snakes rushed into the entrance, called twice, spit out their tongues, and went down first.
Seeing this, Yang Lan'er also walked down. She didn't know where the golden and silver snakes moved, and the entrance was sealed again, isolating the faint moonlight outside.
The passage was very dark, but it did not affect Yang Lan'er's movements. She used her spiritual sense to explore the way, which was actually clearer than using her eyes when there was light.
About three-quarters of the way through the passage, the golden and silver snakes seemed a little excited. They swam across the wall on the right and opened a door.
Yang Lan'er was stunned for a moment, then reached out and touched the wall. Is the material here really special? It seems that if there is an obstruction, her spiritual consciousness cannot pass through, which means that it is isolated from spiritual consciousness.
So, before the twin snakes opened the door, she didn't notice any difference at all.
It seems that the twin snakes are very familiar with this place. I wonder if the ghost master knows this situation? Logically speaking, with the twin snakes' familiarity, they should be very clear about the mechanism. Why would the ghost master need to go to the trouble of removing it?
The space inside the door was not big, about ten square meters, empty and with nothing in it, except for a recessed window on the innermost wall, about one meter square.
There was a white jade box on the window, which was open. The golden and silver snakes swam in on their own, then lay down looking very comfortable, sighed to the doctor, and then did not move.
Yang Lan'er was confused. Could this be the place where the golden and silver snakes were found? It was quite secretive. It was a great skill for the ghost master to find it.
Yang Lan'er naturally didn't know that the Ghost Master's action was just a coincidence. In fact, he had destroyed the mechanism and had passed this place for a long time before he noticed it. He then discovered the golden and silver snakes and used the remaining records of the sect to awaken them.
Seeing that the golden and silver snakes had fallen asleep and continued to absorb the blood in her body, Yang Lan'er couldn't help but feel amused.
Speaking of which, the golden and silver snakes were not awake at first, but were forcibly awakened by the ghost master's flute playing, and now they naturally fell asleep again.
Could this be the bed where the golden and silver snakes sleep? It even has a cover.
Yang Lan'er took a look, reached out to touch it, and then she realized that this jade box was taken out from a whole piece of jade. It was originally a spiritual jade, but now there is very little spiritual energy left. To ordinary people, it is just an ordinary jade box. Although it has some value, it is naturally not as valuable as the unknown secret treasure.
No wonder the Ghost Master didn't take the jade box away, but only took the two snakes. I'm afraid he didn't like them!
Seeing that the two snakes were sleeping comfortably, probably because they were used to this "bed", Yang Lan'er put the box into the space.
Yang Lan'er returned to the passage and moved forward much slower than before. Without the golden and silver snakes walking in front of her, she did not relax her vigilance just because this place was destroyed by the ghost master.
After finally reaching the last ten meters, Yang Lan'er stopped and carefully scanned the area several times with her spiritual sense, seeming to be thinking about something.
This place is quite strange. The walls can obviously block spiritual consciousness, but one can feel something is wrong with the hidden mechanism. Of course, it can only be seen with the microscope function of spiritual consciousness, and it is difficult to detect under normal circumstances.
But the question is, since the wall is so secretive, why destroy this secrecy by setting up traps? Isn't it a loss?
Yang Lan'er pondered for a while and began to think that if the Five Poison Sect was a sect in the world of martial arts, it should not have spiritual awareness, so it naturally would not be able to discover the strangeness of this place.
If you look at these mechanisms with the naked eye and human senses, they really cannot be discovered. No wonder the Ghost Master took so much time and there are still ten meters left.
If this makes sense, Yang Lan'er carefully looked at the mechanism of the last ten meters and came to the conclusion that it would be triggered if anything passed by.
However, there is still a process from triggering the mechanism to activating it. Yang Lan'er does not need to destroy it violently. She only needs to move her body and appear at the wall at the fastest speed in an instant. The mechanisms behind her will be activated one after another, so naturally they cannot hurt her at all.
Yang Lan'er looked back and had a deeper understanding of the density of the mechanism. Moreover, it could be used repeatedly. After being activated, it would automatically retract and return to its original state ready to go. No wonder the secret treasure has existed for who knows how many years, and the mechanism still exists.
It wasn't that she despised the ghost master, but if she gave him another year to finish the last ten meters, wouldn't he be able to finish it? Unless his speed could reach hers just now, otherwise, if he was even a millimeter slower, he would be hit.
In this regard, Yang Lan'er wiped the cold sweat from her forehead. She was careless and did not expect that the mechanism was so brutal. If she had not reached the third level of Qi Refining, she might not have been able to avoid it even if she used all her strength at the second level of Qi Refining.
After reflecting on her own recklessness, Yang Lan'er secretly warned herself to be more careful. She didn't know much about the Five Poison Sect and shouldn't be so conceited.
Although martial arts are declining nowadays, who knows how terrifying they were when they were prosperous? There were a few traces of people using martial arts to enter Taoism in history, but the records are vague and no one has thought of tracing the origins.
Standing cautiously at the door without moving around, Yang Lan'er checked more carefully before she breathed a sigh of relief. Then she took out a chair, sat down, and started to make something to eat.
After much thought, Yang Lan'er decided to wait for the golden and silver snakes to wake up before taking any action. Maybe they could be of help.
There is a time difference in space, so she shouldn't have to wait too long outside.
Yang Lan'er took some shrimps out of the feeding pond, boiled them in clean water with ginger slices, then peeled the shells and ate them with seasonings. The deliciousness was so great that Yang Lan'er, who loved seafood so much, almost swallowed her tongue.
I received a red envelope on QQ today, haha... I was very happy, so I added another chapter... Oh, hey, I'm so happy today! ! ! !
