"Why?" Xue Jinyi asked curiously, "If the wind is coming, doesn't it mean that there is an exit ahead?" ”

Pu Yangxuan smiled: "Ah Jin is so smart, you can understand it when you think about it." ”

He grabbed Xue Jinyi's hand and walked towards the hole next to him.

The wind blowing on her face was a little less, and Xue Jinyi instantly figured it out.

"Uncle Tang is such a good person, how can he let the escape road have to blow the cold wind so hard, right?!"

"Yes." Pu Yangxuan clenched her hand, "So that windy road does not mean that there is an exit ahead, there is a wind blowing in from the exit, I think, it is very likely that a few steps further, the wind will blow out the candle, and then it will step into the ......air."

"What's after stepping into the air?"

"It's a steep slope, roll down."

"Get down...... Xue Jinyi looked down at the blurred road, "...... further underground"

She remembered the huge cavern in the black market.

"I'm afraid it's a bottomless abyss, and if you fall, there is no chance of survival?"

"Yes." Pu Yangxuan nodded.

Xue Jinyi had an idea and tore off a piece of jade pendant from her waist, "We might as well throw this on that road, so that Uncle Tang's people think we have fallen, right?" ”

"It's fine." Pu Yangxuan nodded, "Whether you can fool Uncle Tang or not, you have to give it a try first." ”

It is estimated that it is dark now, and no one will come to the small courtyard, and the Guan Ru person will not be uninteresting, so the two turned back and came to the entrance of the cave that led to the "dead end".

There was a crisp sound of "jingle bells", and the surroundings returned to calm.

Then, the two of them returned to the "life path" and cautiously continued to walk, and as the cold seeped into the bone marrow, a stone staircase finally appeared in front of them, and there seemed to be a small door at the end of the steps.

"Has it finally arrived?!"

As soon as Xue Jinyi spoke, the fire in the lantern was extinguished a few times and completely extinguished.

The candle burned out.

Xue Jinyi seemed to be blind, and she couldn't even see Pu Yangxuan beside her.

At the moment, Pu Yangxuan held her hand tightly and warmed her with the temperature of his palm, which made Xue Jinyi feel a lot more at ease.

"Follow me." Pu Yangxuan's voice was also firm and warm.

Xue Jinyi raised the corners of her lips and followed Pu Yangxuan's side closely.

"When you get to the stairs, lift your feet," Pu Yangxuan said slowly, "Slowly try to step on the steps, and then lift the other foot when you are stable." ”

"Okay." Xue Jinyi recalled the stone steps she had just seen, estimated the height of each step, and slowly stepped on the stone steps step by step under Pu Yangxuan's reminder.

"Ah Jin did a very good job." Pu Yangxuan praised.

Xue Jinyi said: "Can you see it? ”

"yes." Pu Yangxuan answered without any hesitation.

Xue Jinyi said: "Why can you see that the light can't penetrate this dark passage at all, could it be that you have fiery eyes?" ”

"What are the fiery eyes?" Pu Yangxuan smiled: "Because I practice martial arts, I feel more sensitive than ordinary people." ”

Xue Jinyi smiled and sighed, "You say that, it's really jealous!" ”

"Oh, there's finally something that makes Ah Jin jealous of me." Pu Yangxuan's tone revealed relief.

Xue Jinyi said: "Anyway, you are more jealous of me." ”

"yes." Pu Yangxuan raised his other hand and stretched it forward tentatively, his fingertips touched something cold, he stopped and touched it carefully, it should be a slate, and he also tried to push and pull hard.

The slate does not move at all.

"This stone door should require a mechanism or key to open." Pu Yangxuan spread out his palms and groped on the stone slab, "Ah Jin, don't move yet." ”

"Okay." Xue Jinyi was afraid that she would cause trouble, so she honestly stood aside and did not move.

The touch of the slate makes people feel like they are stroking the ice, Pu Yangxuan endured the discomfort, little by little, did not let go of any place, touched the entire slate, and finally touched something similar to a keyhole in the corner of the lower right corner.

"I touched the keyhole."

Xue Jinyi couldn't be happy at all when she heard this.

They don't have a key!

"Ah Jin, borrow your hairpin."

"Hmm."

Xue Jinyi pulled out the hairpin on her bun and slowly stretched out her hand, "Ah Xuan, where are you?" ”

"Don't move yet." Puyang Xuan Dao, according to the direction shown by the voice, touched it, and soon touched Xue Jinyi's slightly cool fingers.

"Soon," Pu Yangxuan said softly, "Soon we will see the light again." ”

"As long as you're around, I'm not afraid." Xue Jinyi felt that this was a little strange, and added, "Of course, how can I, Xue Jinyi, be a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death." ”

Pu Yangxuan laughed, then poked the hairpin into the keyhole, twisting his fingers a few times dexterously, only to hear a slight "click" sound in the silence.

Puyang Xuan took out the hairpin and pushed the slate, but the slate didn't move.

He pondered for a moment, poked the hairpin back into the keyhole, and pushed the slate.

This time, there were dusty stones falling on Pu Yangxuan's body with the sound of "rustling", and he did not hesitate for a moment, and slowly pushed away the stone slab.

The slate was heavy, but it was within his reach.

Xue Jinyi's eyes finally appeared a little bit of light, she blinked, squinted and looked over.

As the slate was pushed away, the cold moonlight filtered in, allowing her to see again.

"This is ......" Estimating the distance they walked out, they should have already left the Fengwang Mansion, Xue Jinyi recognized the scene outside.

Pu Yangxuan was also looking, "It should be a garden." ”

Xue Jinyi looked at it, the shadows of the trees were swaying, and the night wind was blowing.

She shuddered, waited for Pu Yangxuan's signal, and then walked out together.

Sure enough, it was a garden, quiet and silent in the middle of the night, and it also gave people the illusion that they were still in King Feng's mansion.

"No one should live here." Pu Yangxuan looked back, they came out of the stone gate standing on the rockery, and the mountain stone and the path next to it were piled up with thick fallen leaves.

It is impossible for such a garden to be cleaned every day and let the dead leaves fall to the ground.

Pu Yangxuan said: "Come, let's go out and have a look." ”

"Okay." Of course, Xue Jinyi trusted his feelings, and the two of them walked towards the Moon Cave Gate not far away.

The autumn wind gusts, rolls up the fallen leaves, and the cold and dust disperse, which is really an excellent time for a sneak attack! Xue Jinyi shrank to Pu Yangxuan's side and looked around.

There was no human figure to be seen.

When he was about to walk in front of the Moon Cave Gate, Pu Yangxuan suddenly gently pulled Xue Jinyi's hand, then stopped, and cast his sharp gaze on the dim bushes.

"Someone, come out."
