Chapter 233 Are You a Prophet? !

This annex was no more luxurious than the previous one.

This place is more like a simple living room, except that the walls are inlaid with a whole circle of luminous pearls in a very luxurious manner, as if covering this ear chamber with a layer of simple, noble soft light.

Yu Xingmian walked in with the kid in his arms, ignoring her attempts to reach out and help Lechen up, and walked straight past him.

Jiang Xingran and a few others hesitated for a moment at the stone gate, then followed him in.

Liaochen: “…”

Are you childish?!

Jiang Yingcheng let out an "ah" with a dazed expression.

[Has Uncle Lechen offended Uncle Yu in any way? ]

Yu Xingmian pulled the corner of his lips slightly, forming a crude arc.

A few days ago, he sent a message to his deputy, and before the pigeon carrying the message even flew out of the palace, this "wine and meat monk" shot it down and roasted it for food.

If he had not happened to go out to look for dust and happened to come across the small pile of remaining skeletons and pigeon feathers all over the ground around him, he would not know how long he would have to wait for the reply!

However, the point at this time was not this. As soon as Yu Xingmian entered the house, he put the little girl on the ground and let her look for the treasure that "Brother Tong" mentioned.

After Jiang Yingcheng landed, she first glanced in the direction of her Uncle Lechen. Seeing that he had stood up with the help of her seventh brother and brother Shixu, she took slightly further steps, moving farther and farther away from Uncle Yu, who was being stared at fiercely by Uncle Lechen, until she was in a safe range. Only then did she feel at ease and began to look left and right.

[Eh…] Jiang Yingcheng's eyes were filled with disappointment, [It doesn't look like there's a baby here…]

The few people following behind him also seemed to be uninterested. Luo Fuying only took a cursory glance around the room and then looked away in disgust.

Then he followed closely beside Jiang Xingran.

——The look that Sheng Shixu gave her just now was too fierce, and she didn’t dare to go near him.

There were only a few pieces of furniture necessary for daily life in this room. The bed was even bare, with only a whole smooth wooden board on it, like a place for ascetic monks to practice.

Lechen shook off the dust on his body, walked towards the bed, and knocked on it several times with his hands.

The "dong dong" sound caused by knocking is very deep and muffled.

The bed is solid underneath.

This place was really too shabby, Jiang Yingcheng gave up the idea of ​​searching for treasure independently and called 007 several times in his mind.

Then, a light blue translucent panel suddenly popped up, and the entire space was drawn as a flat model with flashing red dots on it to indicate the direction.

Jiang Yingcheng raised his head and took a look from a distance. He felt terrible: [Can this be considered a treasure?!]

Why isn't it sparkling?!

Several people looked up following the young man's gaze.

The ebony bookshelf in the corner was bare, with only a worn-out jewelry box placed quietly at the top of the bookshelf, as if it had been thrown there casually by the owner after moving.

Jiang Yingcheng walked to the bottom of the bookshelf with a dazed expression, stretched out his hand and tried in vain to grab it -

As soon as the action was completed, a few suppressed chuckles were heard behind him.

“…”

[Ok, this is too much! ]

So annoying!

"Excuse me," Jiang Yingcheng turned around with a red face, bearing the humiliation, "is there a kind uncle who can pick up Chengcheng and take the box at the top?"

The suppressed chuckle turned into a blatant laugh. After the laughter was suppressed, Lechen took a slight step and prepared to walk towards the young man.

“Swoosh—”

Sheng Shixu, who was behind Liaochen, exerted force suddenly and slipped past him with a tip of his toes.

The breeze even lifted up his dusty cuffs slightly. Then, Sheng Shixu walked along the wall to the top of the bookshelf, reached out and took the box lightly, and placed it steadily in front of the young man.

The movements were so smooth and flowing that Jiang Yingcheng's eyes were filled with admiration.

"Shi, Shixu brother is so awesome!"

"Here." Sheng Shixu stuffed the box into the boy's hand and smiled slightly.

Today, I also completed the goal of gaining the favor of the little guy.

The future is promising!

Jiang Yingcheng thanked him politely, took the mahogany box, and gently shook it next to his ear.

The crisp sound of the jewelry colliding and the loud "click" sounded together, and for an instant, the air in the room seemed to stop flowing at this moment.

"Huh?"

Jiang Yingcheng shook the box in his hand again, and this time, only the faint sound of the jewelry lingering was left.

“Ehhhh?!!!”

Jiang Yingcheng subconsciously rejected the ominous guess that emerged from the bottom of his heart: [Why doesn’t it “click” anymore? Why doesn’t it “click” anymore? ! ! ]

Lachen's eyes froze.

After an irritable "tsk", he quickly turned around and walked back to the entrance, stretched out his hand and pushed -

The pattern on the secret door that could be opened just now was still. It was obvious that someone outside had triggered the mechanism, intending to trap all of them inside!

Miscalculated.

Le Chen swore under his breath.

The stone door of this atrium is extremely thick and has excellent sound insulation.

Although he could barely hear what was happening outside thanks to his super hearing, the man outside the door was obviously a master of martial arts. In addition, his attention was focused on the two guys, so he didn't notice any clues at all!

When the people in the room saw this, they all gathered around at once.

Yu Xingmian's face was solemn: "Locked up?"

Lechen's expression was not good either: "Hmm..."

Both of them felt a little depressed.

The terrain here is special. If the gate is forcibly destroyed, no one can say whether it will cause irreparable consequences.

Luo Fuying screamed in surprise and suddenly grabbed Jiang Xingran's arm tightly, her voice trembling: "What do you mean by locked up?!"

Can't get out?!

Are they going to be trapped here forever?!

"Wuwuwu, I want to go out, I want to go out to see my father!" Luo Fuying collapsed and cried, "You guys think of a solution quickly, think of a solution quickly!!"

No one present answered.

Luo Fuying's body couldn't stop trembling, and she unconsciously held Jiang Xingran's hand harder and harder.

The sobbing sound sounded like the wailing of a female ghost, which made the people who heard it even more irritated.

Jiang Xingran, who wanted to rush to the young guy, frowned and sighed heavily.

That bastard Sheng Shixu had taken the opportunity to grab the young guy's hand again. Although it was inappropriate, Jiang Xingran still felt resentful as if his precious baby was being taken advantage of by a pig.

"Don't be afraid," Sheng Shixu's voice was gentle and firm, with a soothing tone, "the two masters will definitely find a way to take us away."

Jiang Yingcheng raised his head: "Ang——"

[Cheng Cheng is not afraid~]

She was very optimistic about the current situation: [Brother Tong said that the emperor has brought people to the gate of the cold palace, and he will come down to rescue us soon~]

[Although there is no water or food here, as long as the people outside don't attack with poisonous smoke or something - eh? ]

Everyone's eyes followed the young man's gaze downward.

——A thick smoke was spreading inward through the cracks in the stone door. Although it was spreading slowly, it was very deadly.

The three people who could hear the young man's inner voice were trembling in shock.

So you are a prophet? !
