"Little ball, do you think what's in front of you is real?" The room was full of gold, silver and jewelry, many of which were in boxes. Zhao Hanyun was a little surprised and grabbed a handful of the little guy in her arms. It was true that this person was so annoying when compared with others. The treasures she had collected over the years were only half of his in quantity. She didn't know how the prices compared to hers. She felt a little depressed.
"Really?" As a treasure hunter expert and a senior staff member, Little Ball pretended to have glasses on his nose, pushed them up, and said seriously, "Apart from the money, everything in the box is priceless."
"Let's go out first." Although she was a little envious, Zhao Hanyun still went out with the small ball. She still had to find the mechanism. If she couldn't get out, these treasures would be useless. It would be a waste of time to leave them in the space and let them grow weeds.
"Does this Shen Ji Pavilion refer to those hidden weapons and the like?" The little ball pointed to the somewhat dark room opposite. It seemed that there were treasures there, but there also seemed to be dangers, which was a dilemma.
Zhao Hanyun didn't care about these things. He comforted the little ball and walked in. It was a little dark, so he took out a fist-sized night pearl from his pocket. The situation in the room became clear. Zhao Hanyun had already seen that the windows around were covered with a thick layer of black cloth. It was not known whether it was to block the refraction of the snow outside or for other light. Everything inside was immersed in darkness.
"How cool." What's inside the room? Zhao Hanyun saw boxes neatly stacked one after another. She opened one of them and found a set of night gear neatly placed inside. It looked pretty cool in its dark, dark appearance. What surprised Zhao Hanyun the most was that it even contained a complete set of hidden weapons. While they wouldn't be very lethal to her, they were practically inescapable for ordinary people.
"It's poisonous!" The little ball originally wanted to pick it up and take a look, but who knew that when the night pearl Zhao Hanyun placed in the air flashed, the sharp edges flashed a blood-red light that was not the normal light of metal with a hint of not very conspicuous red. Facing the danger, the little ball wisely retracted its claws and stayed calm.
"If it's not poisonous, I wouldn't even consider it." Zhao Hanyun closed the box again and walked out quickly, but there were some extra things somewhere in the space.
"This should be the place for receiving guests." Without looking carefully at the plaque above the door, Zhao Hanyun brought the little ball into the middle room. Inside, there was an antique reception hall, just like those ancient buildings. In the middle of the room hung a painting, a portrait of a man who looked very immortal. However, after Zhao Hanyun reported it to Zou Li and the others through Xiao Jin, they all said they didn't recognize him.
"I don't know who this person is." Although Zhao Hanyun said this, he had no intention of worshipping him at all. He turned around and went to the back, where there was a compartment.
As I stepped into the cubicle, my two pairs of eyes met a pair of empty eye sockets.
After blinking and confirming that the skeleton had no breath, Zhao Hanyun squatted down to observe it. He saw that the skeleton had no flesh left, but the clothes on its body were still there and seemed very modern. Logically, it should not have rotted in this snowy environment.
"It's a bit strange, be careful." Zhao Hanyun was worried about the little ball, so he held it in his arms, and instructed Zou Li and others who were outside looking for the mechanism. They learned that they had found a weak point and were trying to find a solution.
"Something has been chewing on it." He used a piece of bamboo to pry open the clothes on the skeleton and looked at the tooth marks on the white bones: "This guy's teeth are really powerful."
"Xiao Yunyun, there should be something in here." Zhao Hanyun was looking at the corpse. Little Yuanqiu had nothing to do, so he checked the entire room and found that there seemed to be a secret compartment in the room. The strange thing was that he couldn't find the door even with his unsuccessful attempts.
"Search." Zhao Hanyun stopped studying the skeleton and divided the work with the little ball to search the entire room. They also returned the guy who died for unknown reasons to nature. The whole room was empty and there was nothing left.
"Go out." He raised his foot to cross the threshold, but stopped. Whose door has such a high threshold?
"Boom, crack..." With such sounds, Zhao Hanyun watched the ground of the house rise up, and the house below actually rose up like an elevator, shortening the original house by half. Zhao Hanyun took a look and found that it was not shortened, but the house below was a circle smaller than the upper one. It happened that the lower one rose up and the upper one was filled.
A door with an iron lock rose from below. Zhao Hanyun held the small ball and looked at it for a long time. He decided to wait for Zou Li and the others.
"They're almost here too." Zhao Hanyun learned about Zou Li and the others' current situation from Xiao Jin, and knew that they would be here soon. He was no longer in a hurry. He looked at the silver hair that was like a tail behind him and pulled it, but it was still as tough as ever.
"Xiao Yunyun, do you feel like we're going down?" Standing at the door, the little ball looked around vigilantly and confirmed his feeling: "Yes, we are sinking."
"I know, you don't need to remind me." Zhao Hanyun once again confirmed the presence of the silver hair at his waist, then he moved out a stool and sat down: "It seems that there is a master in here, let's go and meet him for a while."
I don’t know if it’s because of Zhao Hanyun’s calmness, but the ground beneath their feet dropped even faster. Now they didn’t have to feel it anymore, they could see it with their naked eyes.
It wasn't long before I looked up and saw that the roof was already very far away, so I stopped. Unlike the coldness above, it was actually starting to get warmer down there.
"Is it a human or a ghost?" No one said anything for a long time. Zhao Hanyun cleared his throat and asked, "No matter which one it is, come out first."
"Aren't you afraid?" A hoarse voice, almost inaudible, seemed to be really surprised by Zhao Hanyun's reaction and said, "I'm going to eat you later."
"I'm scared. If I end up in an ugly stomach, I'll die. Even if I'm eaten, I won't be able to rest in peace."
As soon as Zhao Hanyun said this, the whole room fell eerily quiet.
"Haha, I'm afraid you'll die with regrets." Still no one appeared, and a voice came: "Those outside are also your companions, don't worry, you won't be alone on the road to the underworld with a companion."
"It's so boring that I can't even understand why I died." Zhao Hanyun sat bored on the chair, playing with the claws of the little ball, and said nonchalantly: "Isn't it really so ugly that it's scary?"
