Opening Six Maids

Chapter 188: Secret room

Snapped!

Li Chongming clapped his palms suddenly and said excitedly, "There really is a problem with the load-bearing pillar!"

Di Gongming stroked his beard lightly, looked at Chu Ci and said with a smile, "Thanks to Master Chu, otherwise we would never have discovered this."

Chu Ci chuckled lightly and said, "It's also a coincidence."

"Go, let's take a closer look."

A few people from Chuci walked into the bedroom again, approached the load-bearing column and took a closer look.

After changing a few angles, Chu Ci finally saw the traces on the load-bearing column.

Someone rubbed the surface of the load-bearing column with the pad of a finger, which left a different mark from the surroundings.

"Bring paper and pen!"

Di Gongming greeted him, and an officer handed a pen and paper.

Di Gongming contrasted the pattern on the load-bearing column and re-engraved a copy on it with a pen.

Looking at the pattern outlined on the paper, Di Gongming said in a deep voice, "This pattern is by no means a coincidence, but it was left over by someone deliberately rubbing it."

Gongsun Luluo asked suspiciously, "Who is the one who left the trace?"

"King Pan Yang is still a murderer?"

Di Gongming looked at his guard and asked, "Chongming, what do you think?"

Li Chongming pondered for a moment, and said, "Subordinates guess it was left by the murderer!"

"This pattern may be the key to the disappearance of the murderer!"

Di Gongming nodded when he heard the words, and said in a deep voice, "The traces on it are still fresh, and the possibility of a murderer is very high."

Turning his head to look at Chu Ci, Di Gongming asked aloud, "Master Chu, what do you think?"

Chu Ci chuckled lightly, "You'll know if you try."

After speaking, Chu Ci pressed his hand on the load-bearing pillar and traced it along the mark with the pad of the index finger.

After a while, Chu Ci drew the same pattern on the load-bearing column.

In the next second, the pattern gleamed slightly with white light.

The sturdy load-bearing column seemed to become illusory.

Chu Ci tentatively stretched out a hand, as if penetrating nothingness, and sank into the load-bearing pillar.

"interesting!"

Chu Ci chuckled lightly, and the whole person stepped into it.

Huh!

The void changed, and Chuci entered a narrow corridor.

Leaning on his side, Chu Ci walked down the corridor steps to the ground.

After walking a dozen steps, the space in front of him suddenly opened up.

This is an underground space the size of fifty square meters. The surrounding walls are lit by ever-bright lights, illuminating it like daylight.

Chuci looked around. There were not only chairs and tea tables, but also bed stoves.

On the opposite wall, there is a closed iron door.

Da da da···

The sound of rapid footsteps came from behind.

Chuci turned around and saw Di Gongming, Li Chongming, and Gongsun Luluo also walking down.

"Master Chu, what's the situation?"

When Di Gongming saw Chuci's figure, he hurriedly asked.

Chu Ci turned sideways and said, "Lord Di, take a look for yourself."

Di Gong walked quickly to the underground space, looked around, and said in surprise, "Is this a shelter?"

Chu Ci pointed to the iron gate opposite and said, "More than that, Lord Di, look at that iron gate, it should lead to other places."

"The murderer is very likely to leave the scene of the crime through this place."

Di Gongming heard the words and struck his beard and said, "That should be the case."

"Let's open the door and go in and take a look."

Li Chongming hurriedly took a step, "My lord, let me come."

Li Chongming walked quickly to the iron gate and pushed open the closed iron gate forcefully.

Unsurprisingly, behind the iron gate is a passage, and torches are lit on the walls on both sides.

Li Chongming looked deep down the passage. The passage was so deep that there was no end in sight.

"Let's go, go in and take a look."

Li Chongming walked at the forefront with a torch, Chuci and Di Gongming were in the middle, and Gongsun Luluo was at the end.

There was no fork in the passage. Several people followed the passage all the way. After walking for about a stick of incense, the passage began to move upwards diagonally.

Chuci guessed that the channel should end.

After a few breaths, a little light appeared in front of the passage.

Squeaky

The sound of the door turning.

Li Chongming extinguished the fire handle and pushed open an iron door in front of the passage.

Several people walked out of the passage one by one and came to a small house.

Chu Ci turned his head and looked around. The furnishings in the room were very common, and there was nothing special about it.

Di Gongming pondered for a moment, looked at Li Chongming and said, "Chongming, you go out to see the situation."

"Yes, my lord!"

Li Chongming opened the door and walked out.

After a while, Li Chongming greeted him outside the house, "My lord, come out."

A few people from Chuci pushed the door out and looked around.

"This is the outer city?"

Chuci was surprised that this passage went straight to the outer city.

Di Gongming stroked his beard and groaned. After a while, he said, "Chongming, you are inquiring about the news all around."

After speaking, Di Gongming looked at Chu Ci and said, "Master Chu, let's go back first."

"I need to check the pattern on the load-bearing column."

Chuci nodded slightly, and returned to the house with Di Gongming and Gongsun Luluo, and returned to the Panyang Palace along the passage.

Leaving Panyang Palace, Di Gongming hurried to Dali Temple.

Before leaving, Di Gongming also instructed Gongsun Luluo to stay in Shengjing City temporarily and not leave.

Chu Ci looked at Gongsun Luluo and asked, "Girl Gongsun, where do you live?"

Gongsun Luluo chuckled and said, "Let's live in the teahouse."

"Master Chu, come to the teahouse when you have time, let's continue drinking and learning!"

Hearing the words, Chu Ci nodded slightly and said with a smile, "I just want to appreciate Gongsun girl's sword dance performance."

Gongsun Luluo smiled and said, "Master Chu, goodbye!"

"Farewell!"

Chu Ci watched Gongsun Luluo leave and walk away.

Chuci left Panyang Palace, and went to the headquarters of the Deception Office and found that there was nothing wrong with him.

He decisively left the headquarters of the Deception Office and went to a teahouse to listen to a small song all morning.
