Ten minutes later, vitality finally returned to her face again, she showed a weird smile, slowly got up, dragged her disheveled clothes into the Xiang Luomu room, and when she came out again half an hour later , has already tidied herself up, still dressed in light green, standing in front of the room and gently pulling out the silver wind chimes with her fingers, just like the pure and beautiful appearance she had when she first appeared.

For more than an hour after that, she stayed quietly in the stone room, either reading or thinking, without any abnormalities.

Wu Maxi knew that it would be unwise to wait, so she commanded the earth dragon to take out the star eyes and put it behind the small hole to continue monitoring.

Relying on the map observed by the star eyes, the cone horned earth dragon proceeded carefully all the way, and arrived at the destination in less than an hour, carefully dug through the marble wall again, then returned to the original monitoring hole to retrieve the star eyes, and came to the newly dug Observe the small hole.

This is a cramped passageway, running obliquely upwards, with faint spirit bead lamps hanging on the two walls, illuminating the passageway vaguely.

The passage is about 300 meters long, followed by a steep wooden staircase. There seems to be something on the staircase, but because it is too far away, only a vague shadow can be seen.

Wu Maxi commanded the cone horned earth dragon to retreat again, continued to dig holes around the periphery, and advanced in parallel with the passage.

Half an hour later, the Cone Horn Dragon had dug to the top of the stairs, so it changed direction and dug towards the stone wall, and soon dug a third small hole in the stone wall.Looking at the small hole with Xingyan, you can see that there is a wooden door above the stairs. On the door is a relief sculpture of the head of a strange animal with a strange and terrifying expression.

Wu Maxi stood up from behind the desk, went to the window, and looked at the luxurious small building with light blue roof to the northwest.

That was the residence of Hu Jingfeng, the dean of Chili Branch.

The location of the cone horned earth dragon is just below the small building.

Strange secret room, strange girl, strange dean.

Wu Maxi thought for a while, and soon gave up exploring the secret of the dean.What kind of person Hu Jingfeng is has nothing to do with him, all he has to do is to avoid that girl and get back the remains and relics of the witch curse senior from the secret room.

There was a brisk knock on the door, which was Jian You's unique knocking rhythm, and then Jian You's sweet voice sounded outside the door: "Brother, it's time to go home."

Wu Maxi looked at the time talisman, and sure enough, it was time to get off work, but fortunately, the progress of the adaptation work was not delayed.

He thought for a while, and left the Cone Horn Dragon and Xingyan in place.Although the Cone Horn Dragon was out of the control range of the Exorcism Curse after returning home, Star Eyes could continue to monitor it.

After packing up the research materials, Wu Maxi left the immigration room, joined Jianyou and walked home.

Jianyou is wearing a small light yellow leather jacket and a light green skirt today. This suit is a new style of black and white. It is said that its design concept is called "Winter Sun Warm Sun", which is said to be as warm and bright as the winter sun , People can't help but be delighted to see it.

Jian You is a natural clothes hanger and has a good temperament. Wearing this suit and walking in the sunset gives people a warm and bright feeling. Coupled with the smile on her face, it makes people feel that this winter is very beautiful.

Wumaxi, who was close at hand, was wearing a gray Qin Feng, just like this winter's ashes, which perfectly set off Jianyou's sunshine-like beauty.

After leaving the gate of the research institute, Wu Maxi and Jian You parted ways and walked towards Sanwei Street.

Jian You grabbed his sleeve and asked, "What are you going to do?"

"Find somewhere to eat."

"Why don't you go home and eat? You don't think Youyou's cooking is delicious, do you?"

Wu Maxi broke her hand free and said, "Xing can't bear it."

"Liar! I know what you are going to do, hum!" Jian You made a face at him.

"What?" Wu Maxi looked at her suspiciously.

Jian You puffed up her cheeks, straightened her shoulders and bent her arms, trying to make her body taller, then pointed at Wu Maxi with an orchid, and said in a rough voice: "Lang Jun..." The two words just said After that, he couldn't help laughing, and the burly figure that had been propped up suddenly collapsed, squatting on the ground and unable to straighten his waist.

It's true that good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles. How did this female thief know about it?

Wumaxi rolled her eyes in anger, turned around and left.

"Don't leave, go shopping with me!" Jian You squatted on the ground, shouting at Wu Maxi's back.

"go alone."

"Then I'll tell Han Xiao to come and go."

Wu Maxi had no choice but to stop, and turned her head to look at Jian You with a gloomy face.

Jian You jumped up, ran over happily, looked at Wu Maxi's sleeve and said, "Uncle, can I make purple reed soup for you today? It's for conscience."

Wumaxi gritted her teeth and said: "If it really fills your conscience? How can it be useless if you drink it?"

"Hmph!" Jian You made a face at him.

As a pure man, Wu Maxi fulfilled the obligations of a pure man very well. When Jian You was busy in and out of the kitchen, he sat quietly in the living room, holding a copy of "A Brief Introduction to the School of Wanliu Artistic Conception" to read. With peace of mind, when Jian You prepared the meal, he still ate with peace of mind.

This was the first time Wu Maxi drank Jianyou's purple reed soup.

Due to too much resistance, Wu Maxi didn't appreciate the taste of Jian You's good soup at all, swept away the dinner like a gust of wind, locked herself in the environment room as if fleeing, and threw down the table full of dishes for Jian You to clean up .

Jianyou pouted and looked at the closed door, angrily said: "I have no conscience, I have to mend it!"

After tempering all the animal carcasses, he took out the notes he had made these days and began to read and think carefully.

At ten o'clock in the evening, there was a sudden movement in Xingjing's field of vision.

The wooden door carved with the head of the animal head slowly opened, and a ray of light shot in from outside the door, and then an old man in his sixties walked in. This person had a dignified face and a refined description. It was Hu Jingfeng, the dean of the Chili branch. .

Wu Maxi temporarily stopped the work in hand, and focused on the vision of the star eye.

Hu Jingfeng didn't stay at the door, and after the wooden door was closed, he went down the stairs, and soon walked out of the starry eyes.

Wu Maxi looked at the empty field of vision of the starry eyes, and began to speculate wildly in her mind.

Could it be that the woman is Hu Jingfeng's Jinluan.

This possibility seems very high, but there are also doubts. With Hu Jingfeng's status, there is no need to make it so mysterious to keep a woman in captivity. There must be other reasons for him to do so.

He then drove the useless speculation out of his mind and brought his attention back to reading.

In less than 10 minutes, Hu Jingfeng came back.

Climbing up the stairs with a calm gait, he stretched out his hand and lightly pressed the seventh tooth on the upper right of the relief, and the wooden door slowly opened. Hu Jingfeng stepped out of the passage, and then the wooden door closed again.

Wu Maxi waited for another half an hour, and when there was no more movement from the wooden door, she let go of her expectations, put away her notes, sank into concentration, and started her daily practice.
