Chapter 172 Secret Way in the Palace(1/2)
As night falls, the style tonight is extremely cold.
Zichen has been waiting since morning, and not a single person passed by the gate.
"Senior sister, why haven't Master and the others come back yet?" The young disciple sat on the threshold and was a little worried.
Zichen lifted her robe and stood up, walked outside the door and looked into the distance again.
The closer it gets to night, the fewer people there are on the road.
Zi Chen muttered to himself: "It seems that I can't wait for the master tonight..."
After turning around, Zichen said to the frowning junior brothers behind him: "Master is in trouble, are you willing to come with me to rescue him?"
Although they all looked thin, when they mentioned that they were going to save the master, they immediately stood up and shook off the cold air from their bodies.
They all said in unison: "It is our duty to go through fire and water."
Zi Chen was very pleased, this is what a Xuanji Pavilion disciple should be like.
When he was returning, he ran into Shao Yu and Wanyan Ruojin, walking side by side.
"Not back yet?" Wanyan Ruojin's voice was filled with anxiety.
Zi Chen pursed his lips and shook his head, "It seems that we must break into this palace. Where are your other friends?"
"I'm preparing medicine for those demon hunters who haven't recovered yet." Shao Yu replied.
Zi Chen nodded, and when he raised his eyes again, his expression changed slightly.
"I am familiar with the master's plan, and I ask you two to cooperate with me in rescuing them." Zichen's tone seemed to be a thank you, "Master has angered the demon king, and it will definitely not swallow his anger. The war is coming, so I ask you to help me.
."
Zichen suddenly became polite, which made the two people opposite her a little uncomfortable. This was somewhat inconsistent with her usual playful and aggressive temperament.
"What Miss A Chen said is wrong. We monster hunters are responsible for eliminating monsters. It is our duty to protect Xuzhou and save our partners." Shao Yu's words were true to his true feelings.
Zi Chen nodded and said: "In this case, we are united. The first thing we need to do now is to ensure the safety of the people. Since the master established the Xuanji Pavilion, he has been studying how to build a strong shelter so that we can
To ensure that people are not harmed during the war."
Wanyan Ruojin heard Tian Zhinuo mention that in the past few years, Yuchize had been going to the homes of the people in the capital to survey the terrain in the name of checking whether the structure of the houses was solid.
"The master built an underground shelter in every house with the Demon King on his back, which can accommodate a whole family. No matter what happens on the ground, they will not be in danger." Zichen explained.
"Is it the same as those underground secret chambers set up in the palace?" Wanyan Ruojin asked.
Zi Chen immediately shook his head, "Master is just using the secret chambers in the palace as test subjects under the guise of working for the Demon King. They look indestructible, but in fact they are just vases that will break if hit."
I see.
Shao Yu and Wanyan Ruojin suddenly realized that they were still masters of mechanisms after all.
"Then how should we tell the citizens to hide quickly?" This question confused Wanyan Ruojin. We couldn't tell each family one by one. It would be a waste of time.
Zichen showed a calm face. She had already planned it. To be precise, Yuchize had already planned it.
Zi Chen ordered his disciples to go to the warehouse to bring some fireworks. These were also developed by Yu Chize himself. The patterns that bloomed in the night sky must be unique here.
Yuchi Ze secretly told the people in the city a long time ago that if they see fireworks with such patterns in the sky, they should hide them quickly.
At the same time, the three people in the palace also saw the gorgeous fireworks in the night sky.
Yuchize stood in front of the window, with a very complicated emotion in his eyes.
Yuchi Cheng and Tian Zhinuo also looked out the window at the same time. The fireworks in the sky were to tell them that all actions were about to begin.
Not only them, but also the monsters saw the sudden appearance of fireworks.
Fortunately, they have simple minds and well-developed limbs, so they have no doubts, and they even say some big words without shame.
"Why are the fireworks suddenly set off? What? Are those humans trying to give themselves a lift?"
"Hahaha, maybe, when your Majesty rules Xuzhou, I will definitely capture two plump women and have fun~"
"Look at your potential!"
Tian Zhinuo listened to the conversation between the two monsters word for word, and a sneer followed.
"How dare a bunch of trash try to rule Xuzhou?" When Tian Zhinuo turned around, he realized that Yu Chicheng had already left.
Yu Chicheng walked to the table and blew out the candles.
"Chengzi, come here." Yuchi Cheng huddled beside the table and took out the topographic map of the palace from his pocket.
When he went out, he expected that something would happen tonight.
Tian Zhinuo walked over lightly, squatted beside the table, and said in a low voice: "Why are you here?"
Yu Chicheng lit a fire stick and shined the light on the map.
Tian Zhinuo didn't understand why he acted like this, even though he was lit up with candles.
"A-Cheng, is there any basis for your behavior?"
Yuchi Cheng lowered his voice and explained: "I just want to tell the monsters outside the door that the two of us have already fallen asleep. Looking at how old and perverted they are, they will definitely not doubt what we are doing."
Tian Zino showed a hint of shyness in the darkness.
Yu Chicheng showed the drawing in his hand to Tian Zhinuo. He identified several locations, pointed at them and said, "Uncle is here."
Tian Zino looked along his fingers bit by bit.
"Hao, Nian, Jin is here." Yuchi Cheng drew a circle on the map, "Qinglin was arranged here. As for Feiyi, he is just running around pretending to be a tiger!"
Tian Zino nodded, and she clearly remembered the location of each monster in her mind.
"We must first stop Lord Se from hurting that woman, but this place is heavily guarded. How should we get out?" Tian Zhinuo knew that there were many monsters outside, and it would be harder than climbing to the sky to escape. But if she was forced to do so,
Breaking in is not impossible, but the movement will be louder.
Yuchi Cheng folded the drawing again, then raised his head and looked at Tian Zhinuo with the faint light. "Have you forgotten? This is my home~ and this is the room I lived in when I was a child!"
Yu Chicheng's face showed a bit of arrogance.
"So... there won't be any hidden paths here, right?" Tian Zino boldly guessed.
Yuchi Cheng stroked Tian Zhinuo's head with a smile, "We Chengzi are smart! When we were young, we would live here whenever we came back. I was afraid of being alone, so my uncle secretly dug a secret tunnel for me, even my father, queen, and queen
I don’t even know. This secret passage leads to my uncle’s bedroom~”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Chicheng stood up and groped in the darkness based on his memory.
Tian Zino also stood up, his attention kept distracted, always listening to the movement outside the door.
Yu Chicheng walked all the way along the wall, knocking and knocking, and finally found the right position.
"Orange, here!"
Yuchi Cheng waved to her, and Tian Zhinuo stepped forward a few steps quickly.
Yuchi Cheng leaned over and knocked again to make sure that the back of the wall was empty.
"How to open it?" Tian Zhinuo could probably imagine that there must be some starting mechanism.
Sure enough, Yu Chicheng walked up to the wooden table beside him, felt along the legs of the table, and accurately found the mechanism that could be recessed.
"Click"
A crisp sound.
"Bang"
The stone door hidden between the walls was successfully opened.
"Sure enough, it was made by the master of mechanism!" Tian Zhinuo sighed sincerely.
Yu Chicheng took Tian Zhinuo's hand and said in a low voice: "Follow me, I may not have walked this road for a long time, and I don't know if there will be any stray insects."
Tian Zino is not afraid. She has seen all kinds of insects when she was planting plants before.
I thought I would see Yuchi Cheng bravely protecting her in this extremely dark secret passage.
However, everything is just fantasy.
"Orange...did you hear a mouse barking?"
Yuchi Cheng looked east and west, hiding behind Tian Zhinuo and holding her arm tightly.
Tian Zhinuo has experienced this kind of scene many times. Zou Hu was always like this before, clinging to her like a pendant.
"Are you men afraid of the dark?" Tian Zhinuo summed up a well-founded truth.
Yu Chicheng quickly shook his head, "I'm very courageous, you know. But it's just too dark here, and there are a lot of screams from unknown things! It makes my hair stand on end!"
Tian Zino shrugged and said, "Okay, it's okay, don't be afraid, I'm here."
Yu Chicheng's good eyesight was of no use here.
"A-Cheng, the direction we are going to now is not your uncle's bedroom, right?" Tian Zhinuo wanted to make him relax through chatting.
Yuchi Cheng nodded.
"I want to stay there tonight. If it hadn't been for it, I wouldn't have dared to take you there."
