Chapter 1057: Pathfinding

After a relaxed chat, General Wu, the second elder of the Wu family, who was inspecting the barracks, returned to the mansion.

Empress Wu retired all her children and nephews, including Wu Dan, and all of them withdrew.

Only the Witch Queen, the Prime Minister and the Witch Lady were left in the hall, as well as the Witch General who arrived later.

The four adults remained in the hall and talked secretly for a while, and only they knew what they were talking about.

Jiu Rao walked around the Prime Minister's Mansion and left, Tianshu followed her every step of the way, and the two quickly returned to the mansion.

"Next, I think I should go to the priest's hall to find my way." At lunchtime, Jiu Rao said, "Jiuwei, do you want to come with us?" ”

Jiuwei pondered for a moment and nodded: "I'll go back when it's dark." ”

"Of course."

As night fell, the three children changed into black nightcoats and silently walked in the direction of the priest's hall.

The priest's hall was originally a place to worship the gods, and the snow-white walls are covered with many ancient frescoes, as well as many intricate texts that are difficult to understand.

The luxurious carpet is carved with the totems of various ancient beasts, which looks hideous and domineering.

Jiuwei has seen the internal topographic map of the priest's hall in the past two days, except for the officers and soldiers stationed outside the priest's hall, and the internal underground palace guards are relatively secret, there is no too complicated defense in the priest's hall, and the attendants are doing their own things peacefully.

Southern Xinjiang is a country where all the people serve the gods, so even if the defense is not too strict, no one dares to enter the priest's hall, which is a psychological fear of the gods, and no one dares to offend.

The three children entered easily, sneaking into the direction of the dungeon as if they were in a no-man's land.

Although the defense is not strict, it is not easy to enter the dungeon, and it is necessary to pass through six stone gates in a row, and each stone door will make a dull sound when it opens.

It is impossible to enter the imperial palace without attracting the attention of the attendants.

"Can we just come for nothing?" Jiurao frowned slightly, staring at the heavy stone gate in front of her, and turned her head to look at Jiuwei and Tianshu, "Is there any way to make the stone gate open silently?" ”

Jiuwei was silent for a moment, "Yes, yes, you can use internal force to isolate the sound in a gas, but...... The internal force is very bad. ”

Although he can do it with his current strength, he will definitely fall asleep in the next few days due to the exhaustion of his true qi.

Jiu Rao raised her eyebrows and looked at him without saying a word.

"Father is in the Qin Mansion." Jiuwei pursed her lips and looked at her, feeling sorry, "If my father knew that I did such a dangerous thing, I would be very angry." ”

Hearing this, Jiu Rao nodded, "Then forget it." ”

Jiuwei looked at her apologetically: "Or ......"

"Don't." Jiu Rao sighed, "Anyway, just wait two more days, and you can't be punished by the pavilion master for this." ”

Of course, what is more serious than punishment is what happens to the body due to the depletion of true qi, but it is even worse.

"Let's go back." Jiu Rao looked at Shimen and sighed pity, turned around and was about to leave.

"Since you're here, don't be in a hurry to leave." A young man's languid voice suddenly sounded, accompanied by a dull sound echoing in his ears, and the stone door slowly opened in both directions.

Jiu Rao, Jiu Wei and Tian Shu instantly retreated, their bodies close to the stone wall, and put on guard.

The huge night pearl on the stone wall illuminates the bright corridor.

The narrow walkway paved with white jade bricks has no end in sight.
