alone as a fairy

In order to find out the residence of the Patriarch of the Yuan family, Chen Zining threw several fireballs into a side hall on the outskirts of the Yuan family. to the main building of the center.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the night guard to discover the fire. While organizing the fire fighting, they sent someone to report to the head of the house. Standing in the shadow of the roof, Chen Zining saw the servant who reported the report enter a bedroom with the most strict guards. In the bedroom, there are not only guards patrolling back and forth in the open, but also several hidden sentries hiding in the rockery and bushes.

Chen Zining avoided the sight of these secret sentries, jumped off the roof, let go of his spiritual sense, and searched the surroundings and underground of this bedroom, but found nothing like a secret room, so he changed another place and came to the next door. In the study, it really paid off. Chen Zining found a huge secret room under the floor of the study. He climbed in through a window. After confirming the location of the secret room, Chen Zining was a little troubled. The secret room was six feet below the ground and All the upper floors are thick marble floors.

Chen Zining looked around, trying to find out where the mechanism for entering the secret room is. This study has a radius of ten feet, three walls are bookshelves, and only one side is decorated with some antique porcelain. Chen Zining groped for a while, but couldn't find any clues. , he can see the flaws and formations at a glance, but he doesn't know anything about organs and secret passages.

Chen Zining turned his brains around and thought of a way. Suddenly, he slapped the wooden frame on the wall with his palm, knocking the two pieces of porcelain down. They fell to the ground and shattered, making two clear noises.

The noise naturally alarmed the people guarding outside. Just as Chen Zining had concealed himself, he rushed in from the door with two guards carrying lanterns. Looking around the study, he saw only two piles of broken porcelain on the ground. , couldn't help but his face changed drastically, and one of them said: "Hurry up and notify the Patriarch to come over."

After a while, a middle-aged man in his fifties rushed over. When he saw the broken porcelain pieces on the ground, his expression changed drastically. He waved his hand and asked everyone to guard the door. He closed the door by himself. When I came to the wooden shelf where the antiques were placed, I looked around carefully. After making sure that there was no one there, I held a white jade statue with both hands, turned it three times to the left, and then turned it four times to the right. Divided into two halves, it slid silently to the two sides, revealing a wall. In the center of the wall, a constellation of Scorpio was inlaid with pearls. The middle-aged man pressed the pearls representing the seven stars one by one, and then stepped back. After taking three steps, I saw several floors on the ground sunk, revealing a step leading to the underground secret room. The middle-aged man hurried down, and after a while, he came out with a relaxed face, and pressed the button again. After one pearl, the passage of the secret room was closed.

The middle-aged man walked out of the study and reprimanded the subordinates: "You bunch of idiots! You actually let thieves break into the study of Yuan's mansion! You even smashed two antiques worth thousands of gold coins! Strengthen my patrol, In particular, we must step up our guard here, and the things inside will be cleaned up tomorrow."

When the people outside left, Chen Zining's invisibility technique also failed, and the next time he used it, he had to be in a state of perfect spiritual power, but he still restrained his breath and remained motionless.

Chen Zining used the two strategies of Tiaohulishan and throwing stones to ask the way, in order to let the Patriarch of the Yuan family show him the way to enter the secret room. When the Patriarch of the Yuan family opened the secret room just now, Chen Zining stood silently behind him and watched the steps. It's crystal clear.

Although the Patriarch of the Yuan family is a master of martial arts, he still didn't notice Chen Zining who was standing aside and hiding himself. Just the subtle smell, the flow of blood in the body, and even the gaze of the eyes are enough to make a martial artist-level master aware of the strangeness around him, while the invisibility technique hides all the information when a person exists, as if it is like turning a person isolated in another space.

Such a heaven-defying means, unless it is a cultivator with a deeper cultivation base than Chen Zining, or a master of Wuzun level, can detect some clues by relying on his spiritual feelings.

An hour later, after Chen Zining waited for the outside to become completely quiet, he followed the technique of the Patriarch of the Yuan family, first turning the statue, and then pressing the seven pearls in a specific order to open the passage to the secret room.

Chen Zining walked down cautiously, and saw that the inside was about four feet square, occupying half the area of ​​the study. There were sixty or seventy large boxes on the floor, and a shelf in the center, on which were placed dozens of boxes of different sizes. Presumably this is the place where the Yuan family used to hide their treasures. Thinking about the hundreds of years of savings of a big family in front of him, and allowing him to use it, his heart beat faster.

Chen Zining was worried that Ye Chang had many dreams, so he didn't check what was in the boxes and boxes. Anyway, it must be good things that could make the Yuan family hide in this secret room. in the government.

After emptying the secret room, Chen Zining closed the passage, swallowed a blood dragon fruit in the study, meditated in a corner for a while, replenished some spiritual energy, opened a window, stepped out, and turned Go up to the roof, and walk towards the Yuan mansion with hands and feet.

Just jumping from one roof to another, suddenly a loud voice came from behind: "There are thieves on the roof!"
