Behind the bookshelf was a flight of stone steps that led to the top. However, there was not a single light. Only the faint light coming from the stone steps at the bottom could be seen.

"Strange, if this was an exit passage, why wouldn't Ouyang Xiafeng have set up a light here?" Does she never go out? " Su Muqin was slightly surprised. "Do you have a fire piston on you?"

He asked Xiao Feng the last question.

"Yes." But it hasn't been used for a long time, I don't know if it can still be used. " As Xiao Feng spoke, he took out a fire piston and passed it to Su Muqin.

Su Muqin drew twice on the wall and then said, "This fire is getting wet. Grasp it and use your inner force to activate it. I'll blow on it from the side to see if it can be ignited. "

"Alright." Xiao Feng nodded.

"It's done. Let's go up and take a look, but we must be careful! " Su Muqin looked at the fire piston filled with burning gas and a smile appeared on her face.

Xiao Feng also faintly smiled as he followed behind Su Muqin.

He could not see the top of the tunnel as he continued upwards. It seemed that the stone steps were quite long.

What Su Muqin and Xiao Feng didn't know was that the moment the two of them climbed the stone steps, the bookshelf that was originally placed in the room automatically opened up. It was the same as before, as if no one had ever touched it.

After walking for thirty to forty stone steps, a wide platform finally appeared in front of him. On the platform, there were two stone doors that were tightly shut. One on the left and one on the right.

Su Muqin stopped.

"Which way do we go now?" Xiao Feng asked.

This reminded Xiao Feng of the time when he fell into the sea and didn't die.

"Follow the direction we're heading. The stone door on the left should be to the north while the one on the right should be to the south. We entered from the southwest corner, but I still feel it would be better to choose from the right side of the stone door. " Su Muqin spoke out her thoughts.

"Sure. I'll try and see if I can push it away. " After Xiao Feng finished speaking, he walked towards the stone door on the right.

"Wait!" Su Muqin suddenly said.

Xiao Feng turned around and asked curiously, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"You, you be careful."

Su Muqin's expression turned bashful. The firelight shone clearly on her face.

Xiao Feng returned a smile and continued walking in front of the stone door. He first used his hands to test the strength of the stone door, but it did not budge at all.

"Ouyang Xiafeng believes that his mechanical skills are invincible, so why would he place a stone door on this passage?" "It's really surprising." Su Muqin was slightly puzzled.

"Maybe this isn't some kind of passage?" Xiao Feng said casually.

"Not the entrance?" Su Muqin repeated.

"Step back." I shall see if I can push open the stone door. " Xiao Feng said.

Su Muqin leaned back.

Xiao Feng's hands slowly approached the stone door, using his inner strength to push open the stone door. As expected, the stone door emitted the sound of crushed stone hitting the ground as it slowly opened up from the outside.

Following the opening of the stone door, a ray of light shone in.

Halfway there, Xiao Feng stopped and let out a long sigh.

"How is it? Are you alright?" Su Muqin walked over and asked in concern.

"I'm fine. It was just that he had been operating too deeply, and his body felt a little weak. We'll be fine after a short rest. " Xiao Feng shook his head.

He took the lead and walked into the stone door. Su Muqin extinguished the fire piston and hurriedly followed him.

Inside the stone door was a large stone room. There was a square opening directly opposite the stone door, from which light shone.

There was only a single bookshelf in the stone room. Nothing else.

"How can this bookshelf be so fated with us?" It was also the one that lost. " Xiao Feng looked at the bookshelf and smiled bitterly.

He slowly walked towards the bookshelf. Su Muqin followed along.

"Eh, this bookshelf is exactly the same as the one in the old room?" Su Muqin had discovered the crux of the matter.

"Now that you mention it, I remember. "It really does look that similar." Xiao Feng was also surprised.

"Why don't you try pushing it again and see if there is anything mysterious about it?" Xiao Feng said.

Su Muqin had this intention.

She walked over to the inside side of the bookshelf and pushed it. But the bookshelf did not budge this time.

"What's going on? "Why not?" Su Muqin was confused and helpless.

"Why don't you try going to the other side? Push it to that side and take a look? " Xiao Feng said.

"That's true. Maybe I made a mistake in my direction! " Su Muqin nodded.

He then walked to the side near the stone door and pushed open the bookshelf. This time, the bookshelves began to slowly compress and close. Slowly, a wooden plank that looked like a door emerged from the wall.

"There is indeed hope!" Su Muqin's face revealed a happy expression.

"Open it and take a look?" Xiao Feng said.

Su Mu Qin did not immediately open up the wooden board to investigate. Instead, she first extended her hand to knock on the board, which emitted a clear sound.

"It's empty!" Su Muqin said.

There was a protruding turntable on the stone wall where the planks connected. Su Muqin knew how to use mechanisms and extended her hand to twist the wheel.

As the wheel turned, the wooden board started to move up slowly.

"Sou sou …"

Four or five arrows flew from the other side of the board.

Xiao Feng was extremely quick, grabbing Su Muqin and dodging to the side.

But the moment Su Muqin's hand left the spinning wheel, the wooden board closed up again.

"The master of this place is a scoundrel. There was no hidden mechanism designed in front of him to let others think that he did not have any traps. Who would have thought that another trap would appear here. Were it not for your quick reaction, I would have been struck by those arrows. "

Su Muqin's expression was unsightly and she still had lingering fear in her heart.

Xiao Feng laughed, "You warned me to be careful. Why are you so careless? "

"You can still laugh!" Su Muqin rolled her eyes at Xiao Feng.

"This is what the onlookers are all about!" Su Muqin added bitterly.

"Then let me give it a try this time." I want to see what this small mechanical skill can do to me! " Xiao Feng said.

"What shameless boasting! If it was only a small trick, how could you be captured here? " Su Muqin didn't forget to mock Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng chuckled and didn't bother to lower himself to the level of a young lady.

"Stay away." Xiao Feng instructed.

"Be careful. "If I really can't handle it, I might as well go inside." Su Muqin said.

Xiao Feng did not reply. His hand had already begun rotating on the wheel.

His left hand was already tightly gripping the Blue Radiance Swords. As long as there was any movement. The sword in his hand could cut through any hidden mechanism or weapon.

But strangely, when Xiao Feng opened up half of the wooden board, he didn't shoot out any arrows or darts.

Behind the wooden planks was a larger stone room, which was also filled with light.

Xiao Feng could faintly hear the sound of flowing water.

"Let's go in and take a look." Xiao Feng turned around and said to Su Muqin.

"Yes." Su Muqin nodded.

The layout of this large stone room was completely different from the smaller stone room from before.

There was a stone table in the middle of the room, and on the stone table were two specially crafted bamboo cups. Beside the bamboo cup was a wooden box. It was already covered in dust.

Ah!

Suddenly, Su Mu Qin screamed. He hugged Xiao Feng tightly and pointed to the left with a trembling body, "What do you think that is?!"
