Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 2429 Maps and Keys

The most stupid way Cang Qianche said is undoubtedly to dig a wall.

I don't know how thick the walls are, but as long as there are walls with traps, there must be interlayers.If you find the right location and destroy the mechanism directly, you can go out smoothly.

Cang Qianche still has physical strength, and Liu Ya can also contribute.

Shi Qi touched the wall behind him with his hands, then sat cross-legged, and said, "I'll adjust my breathing for a while, and then I can start with Master."

Liu Ya looked at the fire folder in her hand and said, "Okay, let's rest together. We will start in half an hour."

After finishing speaking, Liu Ya sat down next to Cang Qianche, and then blew out the torch in her hand.

In the darkness, the breathing of the five people was shallow, and time passed quickly.

An hour later, Liu Ya blew on the torch in her hand, stood up and said, "Che, where do you think is the best place to start digging?"

Cang Qianche leaned down, touched the gap at the foot of the wall, and then said: "I'll find a spot to try first, and don't separate everyone. If the mechanism is triggered, there will be a response."

Cang Qianche chose a location, drew out the dagger and stabbed it towards the wall.

However, the tunnel that seemed to be just a mixture of ordinary stones and soil turned out to be extremely hard, and there was only a small hole when the dagger pierced it.

"This..." Liu Ya looked a little anxious, digging like this, I'm afraid that everyone's strength will be exhausted, and it's impossible to dig out.

At this moment, Qiu Ying, who was supported by Liu Ya, suddenly moved, raised her head with difficulty, and said in a hoarse voice: "Wait a minute."

"Qiu Ying, are you feeling better?" Liu Ya was pleasantly surprised, and said, "Did you find anything?"

Qiuying nodded slowly and said, "It's in my pocket."

Liu Ya immediately supported Qiu Ying to sit down, and then went to find the pockets in her waist.

There are not many things in Qiuying's pocket, only a few bottles of medicine that Liu Ya gave her, a ball of tendon rope and a small blue cloth bag.

Liu Ya took out the cloth bag and asked, "In it?"

Qiu Ying nodded and said, "The key and the map."

Liu Ya's eyes lit up, and she quickly untied the little cloth bag.But there are only a few simple small parts in the cloth bag, but they all look ordinary, and none of them look like the key Qiuying said.

"Bu..." Qiuying hoarse, almost speechless.

Liu Ya immediately understood, dumped the contents of the cloth bag on the ground, and put the piece of cloth under the firefold to have a look.

Only then did I see clearly that a few simple lines were drawn on the cloth, some were curved, some were straight, and there was a dotted line.The lines seemed to be drawn with blood, but because the cloth was blue, it was difficult to distinguish clearly for a while.

But what map is this?Liu Ya handed the cloth to Cang Qianche, wanting to see if he would find anything.

But Cang Qianche didn't look at the so-called map, but kept staring at the few small parts on the ground.

Liu Ya asked suspiciously: "Che, Qiuying said this is the key?"

Cang Qianche nodded affirmatively, and asked, "If I'm not mistaken, this is the work of Mr. Qingyu, right?"

"Yes." Qiuying said in a weak voice: "He stole the key and dismantled it." Then she pointed to the picture and said, "I went to find the picture."

"Well, I'll try." Cang Qianche said, squatting down and starting to assemble those parts.

His hands are very dexterous, with long and slender fingers, as nimble as flying.I can't stop combining those seemingly simple small parts into various shapes, but I always seem to be dissatisfied, so I continue to assemble them after dismantling them.

Finally, Cang Qianche combined those parts into a weird fork shape.But Liu Ya couldn't see that the fork could be the key.

Liu Ya couldn't help being curious, and asked, "If this is the key, where did it come from?"

"Give me the picture." Cang Qianche took the blue cloth from Liu Ya's hand, and carefully stroked the lines with his hands to read, looking very seriously.

After a while, Cang Qianche took a deep breath and said, "It turns out that this is not a mechanism, but a formation. This key is the formation eye. To break the formation, you need to put the formation eye back to its original place."

Cang Qianche helped Liu Ya up Qiu Ying, motioned Shi Qi to support Mu Qingyu, and said, "I understand. Come with me."

The next road made Liu Ya feel dizzy.Because every thirty steps you have to turn a corner, or turn left, or turn right, or turn around in circles.

After turning around seven or eight times, a wooden ladder suddenly appeared in front of my eyes.

Liu Ya was very surprised, but she also said with joy, "The exit is right up there."

But Cang Qianche let Liu Ya stand where she was, and he went over to lift the ladder, moved it to another wall and put it away, then climbed up the ladder.

Liu Ya held up the fire folder, and saw Cang Qianche insert the fork-shaped key into a gap in the ceiling.

A wall disappeared silently beside Liu Ya, replaced by a wooden door.Liu Ya was amazed at how quickly this formation shifted and changed.

Liu Ya greeted the nineteenth generation of ancestors of the person who designed this formation in her heart.Suddenly, she sniffed and her expression changed, and she said, "There is a dead body behind here."

After walking around for a long time, this door is not an exit, but a morgue?Liu Ya turned her head and looked at Cang Qianche with questioning eyes.

Cang Qianche was also a little surprised, he just walked according to the marks on the map, but he didn't expect such a result.

Put it back into the formation eye, break the formation, then there should be an exit.But this door was not the door they came down from at all.

The three looked at Qiuying again at the same time, but Qiuying passed out again at this time, and there was no way to explain anything at all.

"Anyway, let's go in and have a look first. Maybe Qiu Ying wants to tell us something." After Liu Ya finished speaking, she went to push the door.

The door is ajar and opens with a push.And that stench came again, making Liu Ya take half a step back.

Cang Qianche tore off a piece from his own clothes, ignited it with a torch after it was balled up, and threw it into the door.The fireball traced an arc, also illuminating the scene inside.

tragedy!The dead are almost piled up into a mountain, a whole room full of corpses.

The cloth ball facing the fire fell on the ground, and the flickering flames moved towards the nearby corpses, allowing them to see more clearly.

What is even more surprising is that the clothes and costumes of these corpses are all people in the palace at first glance.Some are in palace attire, some are wearing the clothes of servants, and some are wearing bright yellow robes.

Could this be the entire royal family and all the court ladies and eunuchs?Had the royal family of Tianze Kingdom been exterminated directly?
But if it was a massacre, who did it?

Questions piled up one after another, Liu Ya and Cang Qianche looked at each other, but no one had an answer.
