Volume 2, Volume 2, Chapter 21(1/2)
"The big bedroom in front should be Nichols lived in, and there is a big bedroom next to it. Looks like the decoration is a woman's boudoir... Tsk, this couple looks apart and are separated."
"Further forward, there is a laboratory next to the study, which should have a lot of secret key materials."
Chen Lian pondered for a moment and let Tris enter Nichols' bedroom. He went to the laboratory to search. It was obvious that the harvest would be greater there.
This arrangement is mainly because the mouth of a lion can hold a lot of items.
"Be careful."
Tris had no objection at all and went there well.
Chen Lian quietly climbed up the wall, then clasped against the top of the corridor, climbed over the study door, opened the laboratory door with the electric eel gold wire, and sneaked in. At this moment, he heard the sound of the door opening.
Through the crack in the door, he saw Mrs. Luo Shan and the mysterious man walk out of the study.
"The strong Qin army is too strong and can't stop it. Let's go through the secret passage and leave." Mrs. Luo Shan said.
The mysterious man nodded and said nothing.
"There are secret passages?" Chen Lian's mind moved, took a deep breath, and then spit out a cloud of fog at them. The fog seemed to be spiritual, almost following them along the ground.
Chen Lian immediately turned around and searched the storage cabinet in the laboratory. He took it away without looking at it. He searched it as quickly as possible and came out. When he saw that the study was on fire and the raging fire spread rapidly.
"Mrs. Luo Shan set fire before evacuation..." Chen Lian's mouth twitched and hurriedly went to Tris. He found no one in Nichols' room, but found an inner door leading to Mrs. Luo Shan's boudoir, where he found Tris.
"It turns out that the two bedrooms are connected." Chen Lian walked in and found Tris squatting in front of a safe fiddling with the golden thread.
"Stop doing it, there is a fire here, and if you don't leave, you won't be able to leave." Chen Lian shouted lightly.
"Give me another 30 seconds."
Tris' expression was serious and persistent. After 25 seconds, with a sniff, the safe door opened, and immediately a dazzling light emanated.
I saw that the cabinet was divided into three layers, containing many shiny rare gems and some old papers.
"Haha, this is the safe of the Monopoly." Tris was so happy that his eyes shone.
Chen Lian quickly took away the items and pulled him out.
Sure enough, the fire had already burned outside, and the carpets and wooden walls in the corridor were all burning.
The flames burn and the smoke chokes.
Tris felt a little sad. He was so excited that he almost broke the big thing. Could this be the fortune Alice predicted?
Chen Lian followed the traces of smoke left on the ground and ran through a long corridor. Suddenly, he found that there was no road ahead, but a stone wall with a stone statue on each side.
One is an angel and the other is a demon.
Three meters apart.
"There is a secret door here." Chen Lian's eyes flashed, and he and Tris immediately looked for the switch. After searching for a while, they did not find a clue. Instead, the fire burned towards this side.
"What should I do? If I don't, just break the window and run away." Tris was a little panicked, and the fire scared him.
"There are officers and soldiers outside, and they will be caught when they go out. You know the consequences of the thief being caught." Chen Lian did not give up and continued to search.
"The end... Once the thief is caught by the officers and soldiers, he will directly abolish the thief Gu and be sent to prison. The sentence is ten years in prison. If the year is not good, he will be castrated and sent to the army to become a slave soldier." Tris shivered, and the more he thought about it, the more he became more and more afraid.
"Finally found!"
Suddenly, Chen Lian found that there was a faint ashes on the right eye of the angel stone statue. He pressed it with his hand and could move it.
It's active!
Press it to the end!
But nothing happened.
"Hey, isn't it right?" Chen Lian was surprised, took a step back, looked at the angel stone statue seriously, walked towards the demon stone statue, and suddenly narrowed his eyes.
There was also ash in the demon's left eye, and pressed down... and there was no response.
Chen Lian thought for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said, "Tris, you go and hold the right eye of the angel stone statue, I will hold the left eye of the demon stone statue, and we will press it together."
"Oh, OK!" Tris hurried over, Chen Lian shouted one, two or three times, and the two pressed down at the same time.
Donglong!
Accompanied by a tremor, the stone wall suddenly moved and rose slowly, revealing a straight spiral ladder walking downward.
"Let's go!" Chen Lianjue pulled Tris in without hesitation. After getting off the spiral ladder, he saw a circular room and the entrances of eight black corridors. Which one should I go?
Tris looked confused and at a loss.
A faint smoke entered one of the corridors on the ground.
Chen Lian didn't think about it, and went straight into the corridor, touched the black, and walked forward for twenty minutes. Suddenly, he heard the sound of water flowing in front of him, and the smell of stench came to his nose.
“It turns out that this road leads to the sewer.”
Chen Lian curled his lips and saw a dirty ditch at the end of the corridor. There was a rusty ladder not far away. The manhole cover on it had been opened.
"It smells so smelly." Tris pinched his nose, "Let's go out quickly."
Chen Lian nodded, but as soon as he came to the bottom of the ladder, he heard a fierce fighting sound from above.
Looking up, all kinds of arcane rays were intertwined.
"This secret passage has been exposed, and Mrs. Luo Shan couldn't escape." Chen Lian murmured.
"Ah, why is it exposed?" Tris asked casually.
"We just opened the secret door, and the two stone statues were more than three meters apart, which means that two people must be present at the same time to open the secret passage and escape. In other words, Nichols also knew about the secret passage, and he was caught. It seemed that he had confessed everything." Chen Lian sighed.
Tris wondered, "Why set the mechanism to be three meters apart? If you can't find a second person, wouldn't you be trapped to death?"
This is indeed a doubt...
Dong!
Just as Shen Lian was thinking, a sound suddenly came from the sewer in the dark.
Chen Lian suddenly turned his head and stared at the pillar not far away.
A figure appeared.
It was a mysterious man they had seen, leaning on a tin silver wolf-headed cane, making a thud sound, and walked over with graceful steps.
"I'll answer your question." The high neckline opened slightly, the face covered was exposed a little, the eagle hook had a straight nose, and a pair of dark red eyes were like a poisonous snake to choose people and eat them.
"Nichols is a Monopoly on the surface, but in fact the owner behind the scenes is Luo Shan. Nichols is just a male pet raised by Luo Shan and a facade that covers up his identity. All his achievements come from Luo Shan."
"However, the designer of the secret passage is Nichols. This guy is worried that one day Luo Shan's secret will be exposed. When he has to escape, Luo Shan will abandon him, so he designed the secret passage that must be opened by two people."
The mysterious man said like a chat, and finally stopped three meters away, staring at Shen Lian with dark red eyes.
A cold breath filled the air.
Chen Lian narrowed his eyes slightly, and Tris's face quickly pale, subconsciously avoiding him behind him.
"Hide behind the pillars over there." Chen Lian said softly, Tris nodded, looked at Chen Lian and ran away.
The mysterious man bowed gently and gracefully, performed a gentlemanly ritual and said, "I am Clive Black, Finson's brother. Did you kill Finson?"
Chen Lian nodded lightly: "I killed it."
"Are you the one who lured me to Nichols Manor?"
"good."
"What is the purpose of setting up this game tonight? How did you know the relationship between Luo Shan and me?"
Only then did you know that you had a leg, I just wanted to use you to defeat the guards of the manor... Chen Lian's mouth twitched slightly, and he said quietly: "The reason is very simple, because I am from the Jiantiansi."
Clive was stunned for a few seconds, then nodded suddenly, and said, "So that's it."
Chen Lian immediately asked back: "Why are you hiding here?"
Clive sighed and said helplessly: "Lawshan thought he could not escape, so he helped me stop the master who was lying outside and let me escape from another exit, but fate made us meet."
"No."
Chen Lian shook his head.
"No?"
Clive tilted his head, looking puzzled.
"You are wrong. Fate will make you die here and in my hands."
Chen Lianran smiled and murderous intent, his nails quickly became sharp, like the sharp claws of a wild beast, and his muscles were trembling slightly, as if there was a force about to burst out.
"I appreciate your optimism. You will become a beautiful specimen and I will carefully collect it." With a swish, the ripper pulled out the surgical scalpel and pinched it with elegant gestures. The lower body then turned into a hurricane-shaped gray mist, and the whole person was floating.
"Come on the fight!"
Chen Lian hooked his fingers.
Clive snorted angry murmur from his nose and suddenly rushed over. The gray mist supported him to attack at an extremely fast speed. The attack was very fast, and the surgical scalpel was even more sharp.
Chen Lian suddenly grabbed the ladder beside him, and with the huge force pulled off a 1-meter-long iron rod, used it as a sword envoy, lifted it up, and stabbed it towards Clive's forehead. With his sword-tracking level, the trajectory of this sword is naturally unimaginable.
Clive only felt a sharp power crushing towards him!
