Chapter 1348: Too Early to Be Proud
"Uncle, there are mechanisms on the ground. Any piece of the ground can be lifted up."
Fu Zhaofei ran over and pointed to the open space where they were just now to Shen Xuan.
Now that piece of open space was truly empty, with nothing left. Everything had fallen into the dungeon along with Xiao Lanyuan and the others.
"Mechanism?" Shen Xuan smiled, "Don't be nervous."
"Pretending to be calm, huh?" City Lord Yu felt something was not good when he saw his reaction, but he was unwilling to admit that something unexpected might happen.
Could they still know how to open the mechanism?
No one has stepped into the Dark City for so many years, and I heard that Dong Qing is no longer outside. So apart from them and him who inherited some top-secret information from the City Lord's Mansion, who else can open the mechanism?
It's impossible.
"Do you think that you can imprison Prince Jun with just a mechanism like this?" Cheng Yunjian couldn't help but speak.
"Cheng Yunjian, if you insist on colluding with outsiders and refuse to repent, then don't blame this city lord for not giving you a chance."
When City Lord Yu saw that the place was surrounded, he knew that it was Cheng Yunjian's help.
He already hated Cheng Yunjian in his heart and would never forgive him. After he subdued all these people, he would kill those who should be killed, leaving behind the guards and soldiers, and he would also kill Cheng Yunjian.
Then, Cheng Yunrou was captured and made his woman.
He had had the same idea about Cheng Yunrou before, but Cheng Yunrou scolded him for being old and said that even if she could never get married in her life, she would never fall in love with an old man like him.
He also always holds a grudge.
If Cheng Yunjian died, Cheng Yunrou would not be able to escape.
Cheng Yunjian sneered, "City Lord Yu, I still call you City Lord now, do you think you will definitely sit firmly on the position of City Lord?"
They were talking here, stalling for time, and several of Cheng Yunjian's men had already found a corner where they could stuff paper balls into the dungeon.
That's right, although they have no way to open the mechanism of the dungeon from outside, they have actually figured out a little bit over the years that there is a way to open the mechanism inside the dungeon.
That was recorded in an ancient book in the city, but Cheng Yunjian had not had the chance to test it out over the years.
After Shen Xuan arrived, he asked about the clues he knew and added a little bit, saying that when the City Lord's Mansion was built, a secret passage was left. It could not be opened from the outside, but letters could be sent to the dungeon.
As long as the people inside get the letter and know where to open the dungeon, they can definitely open it.
They already knew it when they attacked the City Lord's Mansion. City Lord Yu had indeed opened the dungeon and let Xiao Lanyuan and the others fall in.
But Shen Xuan was not panicked at all. If he gave Xiao Lanyuan some time, he would definitely be able to do it.
That's why they keep delaying time here.
At this time, none of them thought that Xiao Lanyuan actually knew how to open the mechanism.
In the past two years, he has been looking for and studying everything about Dongqing, and he has also tried his best to understand every city in Dongqing.
Not only him, but also Fu Jinchen.
Fu Jinchen has been on the run for so many years, and it was more than just a run. He has heard, seen, learned, and collected so much.
Dark City, he had heard of it before.
There are many mechanisms in the dark city, especially in the city lord’s mansion.
Fu Jinchen knew about this dungeon, and he had also explained it in detail to Xiao Lanyuan.
During the days they had been in the City Lord's Mansion, they had been secretly investigating the Mansion and had already found the dungeon.
However, the guards from the City Lord's Mansion also fell down, so Xiao Lanyuan and the others took some time to deal with them.
