Chapter 24 The blood that disappeared out of thin air!
After a brief discussion with Xiqiao, Lu Yang still planned to let Xiqiao stay in this room and act alone.
After all, no one on the princess side knew that Xiqiao had escaped from the dungeon. If the princess knew about Xiqiao's escape, both Xiqiao and Lu Yang would suffer immediately.
However, Lu Yang also knew that it was only a matter of time before the princess found out about this matter. He had to find out the whereabouts of the demon-suppressing magic weapon in the shortest possible time!
After placing Xiqiao, Lu Yang carefully slipped out of the room. After preliminary research on the Princess's Mansion in the past few days, Lu Yang had almost understood the situation inside the Princess's Mansion.
The place where he lives now is on the first floor on the same floor as the Princess Palace. In addition to this floor, the Princess Palace has three floors above and one below, adding up to five floors.
As for the underground level, Lu Yang felt that he could first rule out that this was the place where the demon-suppressing magic weapon was stored. After all, there was only the dungeon of this county on the underground level. Even the most stupid person would not be able to store the demon-suppressing magic weapon so precious.
The items were placed on the same floor as the imprisoned prisoners.
The floor where Lu Yang lives is mainly the guest room and the princess's office. It is almost the place with the largest flow of people. Judging from the current time, the first floor of the princess's mansion should also be placed last.
The place to search.
From this point of view, what Lu Yang has to do is to start from the second floor of the Princess's Mansion.
However, the biggest dilemma Lu Yang faced now was that the visibility in the Princess's Mansion was too low. Not to mention the dim candlelight, the Princess's Mansion was also shrouded in thick smoke, which simply reduced his search efficiency.
What's even more embarrassing is that Lu Yang is not sure whether the demon-suppressing magic weapon is stored in the princess's mansion. If the demon-suppressing magic weapon is not in the princess's mansion, then Lu Yang's current actions are a complete waste of time.
But staying in the room and doing nothing is not an option. If you go out and look for it, you might be able to find some clues.
"Then I'll leave first." Lu Yang knocked on the door and signaled to Xiqiao inside, then walked directly towards the second floor of the Princess's Mansion.
Because he and Master Ma had just visited the rooftop of the Princess's Mansion yesterday, Lu Yang quickly found the location of the stairs and reached the second floor of the Princess's Mansion.
The layout of the rooms on the second floor of the Princess's Mansion was almost the same as that on the first floor. When he walked to the room closest to the stairs, Lu Yang looked at the plaque hanging on the door frame and saw the three characters "Book Collection" written on it.
This looks like a floor for storing items. Lu Yang feels that if you want to store demon-suppressing magic weapons, this is obviously the most suitable place.
So Lu Yang started to check the rooms one by one along the corridor. But what made Lu Yang doubly puzzled was that he searched for a long time on the second floor, but every room here had the word "Bookstore" on the plaque. It seemed that
This entire floor is a library!
This is strange.
Lu Yang frowned slightly and felt that things were not developing as smoothly as he had expected. To put it bluntly, Jinchan County was just an ordinary county. The "princesses" and Master Ma who were stationed in the county all came from the imperial capital.
, Logically speaking, there shouldn’t be so many books stored here.
Lu Yang casually pushed open the door of the library next to him, intending to take a look at what was stored in these libraries. However, as the door was opened, the situation inside the room made Lu Yang dumbfounded.
There is actually a corridor inside this room!
incredible!
A trace of cold sweat broke out on Lu Yang's forehead. There was absolutely nothing stored in the room in front of him. On the contrary, what no one expected was that this room was directly connected to the corridor deeper into the Princess's Mansion!
And there are countless more rooms on both sides of the wall in this endless corridor. The door plaques of these rooms also have three words written on them - Library!
"Are you kidding..."
Lu Yang felt a cold sweat break out on his back. His current experience was like encountering a ghost beating a wall. His intuition told him that if he walked into this room and continued to search other rooms, he would definitely find himself in so many connected rooms.
Lost in the middle!
This place is like a huge maze. If you are not careful, you may lose your direction. And now Lu Yang has almost forgotten the route he took when he was going back. In this extremely low visibility situation, each room still has
They all look exactly the same, and if you move forward hastily, you will only lose your bearings.
Lu Yang clenched his fists. He knew that his current actions were not approved by the princess. Therefore, if he was not careful enough in his current actions, he would most likely have the princess guess his current intentions.
But looking at the intricate arrangement of the second floor of the room, Lu Yang felt that there must be some secret hidden here. So Lu Yang became cruel, put his index finger to his mouth and bit it hard, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
Come down.
Lu Yang slowly lowered his arm, and the blood gushing from his index finger immediately dripped onto the floor. By doing this, even if he got lost here, he could follow the blood traces to find where he had just been.
!
After everything was ready, Lu Yang walked deeper along the corridor in the room.
After walking through three rooms, Lu Yang felt that it was almost done, so he carefully opened the door at his hand. As the door of the room was opened, Lu Yang saw another corridor.
…
"Is it possible that this place is all made up of corridors and doors?"
Lu Yang muttered to himself. Seeing his index finger still dripping blood on the floor, Lu Yang took a deep breath. He walked to the corridor in the room and pushed open the first door at hand.
But the scene in the room is still a bottomless corridor...
Lu Yang felt that he could not continue searching.
After preliminary analysis, there are almost two situations on the second floor of the princess's mansion.
The first situation is that there is nothing at all in these rooms. Behind each room is a corridor, and there is nothing at all in the entire second floor of the Princess's Mansion!
The second situation is also the one that Lu Yang feels is the most difficult, that is, although most of the rooms on the second floor are followed by corridors, there is only one room that actually stores things.
But the princess's mansion is so big, it is obviously unrealistic to check every room. Moreover, during the search process, it is very likely that certain rooms will be missed. Once the room where things are stored is missed, Lu Yang will
It's like working in vain.
In any case, the priority of being searched here is not high. He has only been on the second floor for ten minutes. Now the priority of searching for other floors is obviously higher than here. After all, he has not wasted it here.
Too much time.
