Walking to the innermost area, there were indeed two sets of artificially dug stone chamber s. One of them was open, while the other was semi-artificial, and there were even some daily necessities inside. The other room was sealed, as if it was blocked by a stone door, and sounds would occasionally come from inside.

"What's going on?"

"It's a mechanism stone door, and one of the mechanical technique as well. I never thought that the stone chamber here were actually built according to the mechanical technique, and probably to avoid being hunted down, or to imprison anyone."

This kind of mechanism stone chamber was very rare. After all, the first method was to carve it out in the wilderness, which was very remote and inconvenient. The second way was that very few people would live in this kind of place anymore.

"Then, this stone door should be a great gift to you, my wife. Try and see if you can open it?"

After confirming that there was someone inside, I looked around for a mechanism to see if I could open the stone door.

Suddenly, he realized that the other stone chamber's stone furniture was very exquisite. However, he could tell that some of the flowers were icing on the cake, which made him very uncomfortable.

I walked into the other room and stretched out my hand to try out the furnishings. Sure enough, one of them was the switch to the other room.

"This design is quite ingenious. I don't think anyone would want to see the mechanism of one door in another stone chamber." Zhang Ziyuan praised.

"Actually, that's not hard to find, but what's strange is that the stone chamber was actually opened wide. If it was closed, it wouldn't have been so easy for me to activate the mechanism."

If I'm not wrong, this is a chain of traps, and I need to find a way to open one of them before I can enter the other one. But for what reason, one of them didn't close, were they really careless?

We walked into the group of stone door that was just opened, and saw that the general layout of the place was similar to the other one, only that there was a simple bed, and on the bed laid a haggard looking woman, the Princess of Fengdu that we were looking for, Xia Mingtianji.

"Eh? It truly is looking for broken iron shoes, obtaining them effortlessly, ghost princess is here. "

Before I could finish speaking, the stone chamber's door suddenly slammed, scaring me quite badly.

"Why did the stone door close it itself?"

"This is bad, the mechanism here is probably to trap us here!"

Although he realized that he had been designed, the stone door was already closed, it was too late. He had to check on Xia Mingtianji first to see how he was doing.

"How is he?" Seeing that Zhang Ziyuan still had not woken up even after a long time of treatment, he couldn't help but become anxious.

"Not too optimistic, it seems like all the ghost power in her body have been exhausted. Right now, she looks like she's completely drained of all her blood. She's extremely weak!"

"ghost power, blood, if that person lost too much blood, they could be given a blood transfusion, what about her? Do you want to transport ghost power to him so that he can help her recover? "

Zhang Ziyuan shook his head: "If that's the case, then nothing can be cured, and he doesn't seem to have any will to live anymore. Princess of Fengdu has always been a female ghost who has cultivated for a thousand years, and now that he has run out of oil, no one can save her."

"Speaking of which, if you still want to rely on him to save Shuo Yue, there's no hope now …"

"That might not be the case …" Zhang Ziyuan said as he continuously transferred his ghost power into Xia Mingtianji's body.

Ghosts were like all demons, they had endosperm s in their bodies. The higher their level of cultivation, the higher their level of endosperm s would be.

If that was the case, then the endosperm in Xia Mingtianji's body were like human organs, and had begun to irreversibly damage. If the ghost power Zhang Ziyuan transferred to Xia Mingtianji was able to temporarily alleviate her weak symptoms, it wouldn't be able to save his life.

Not long later, Xia Mingtianji slowly opened his eyes and looked at us in shock. His voice was also very weak.

"So it's all of you. Why are you here? Where's my son?"

"Are you still worried about Shuo Yue? "Ever since you were a child, you have never cared about him. Later on, you have only used him as a tool. With such a caring tone, I wonder what other plans you have in mind?"

"Don't talk about me like that. Ever since I gave birth to him, I have always been thinking about him. It's a pity, because there are many reasons why I can't do my duty as a mother. However, this doesn't mean that I don't love him! Cough, cough, cough! "

"Don't be agitated, don't be agitated. I was just casually saying it, I'm not really accusing you. With the current situation, we're already locked in here, so how can we get out?"

Looking at Xia Mingtianji's painful expression, I couldn't bear to provoke her anymore, and I didn't tell him about Shuo Yue's current situation. If I could save her, that would be perfect. Perhaps there was a way to cure her condition.

"Cough cough, there's nothing I can do. If I could open this mechanism, I would have left long ago. Would I still be imprisoned here for such a long time?"

also didn't know that the stone door's mechanism was here, if we were to say that the mechanism to open it only exists on the outside, then wouldn't we be like a turtle in a jar?

"Don't be anxious then. Zhang Ziyuan, you take care of him first. I'll go and find out if there's any way to open the stone door."

Zhang Ziyuan nodded his head, "I understand, Princess Xia Ming, you have to hold on. When we were attacking the Fengdu and saw the Night Pearl above your head, Shuo Yue was extremely worried, so she told us to come find you. You have to stay alive until we save you."

Xia Mingtianji lightly nodded his head, but his spirits were a lot better. Although Zhang Ziyuan and I had lied, it was still a white lie, but I didn't know if she would blame us if he knew that his own son's life was hanging by a thread.

The design of the stone chamber was very simple. I tried moving everything I could inside, but still couldn't find the mechanism to unlock the stone door.

"What should I do? Oh right, Princess, who was it that imprisoned you here, Ghost King? "

Xia Mingtianji lightly nodded his head, "Yes, it's him. Last time when I rescued him and left, he was greatly enraged and felt that I was acting on behalf of an outsider so he placed me under house arrest. At that time, my body was already in a bad condition when the endosperm was damaged, so no matter how much I cultivated, it only became weaker and weaker. I felt that I was about to die, but before I died, I didn't even manage to catch a glimpse of Shuo Yue.

"We're here, but we don't have the ability to leave. Sigh, what should we do?"

"That will really implicate you. To save me, if the Ghost King really comes, won't it mean that none of us will be able to escape?"

"This princess doesn't need to worry. Ghost King has already been heavily injured by Shuo Yue, so we should be finding a place to hide for the time being to recuperate. We shouldn't find such a place for a short period of time."

"Ah?" Could Shuo Yue seriously injure Ghost King? Does he have that ability? "

I felt that I made a slip of the tongue, and immediately covered my mouth. How can I explain this to her, could it be that Shuo Yue used the forbidden technique to injure Ghost King?

Zhang Ziyuan was also really clever, and immediately replied: "Ah, it's because Su Su broke the seal on me, and is already very powerful, when she and Shuo Yue joined hands, Ghost King was no longer a match for him."

"Ah, really?"

If there was no one that came, Princess Xia Ming and Zhang Ziyuan would not have any problems for the time being, I, a living person, would probably starve to death in just a few days.

Ye Zichen took out his phone, but found that there was no signal in this place either. He just hoped that someone could find this place and rescue him now.

"If they discover that you and I have disappeared, they will definitely search with all their might. According to the route we found, the chances of them finding this cave is very high. Don't worry, we should be saved."

Actually, what depressed me was not that I couldn't get out temporarily, but that I finally met a mechanism that I couldn't unravel at all. I had researched the mechanical technique for such a long time, yet I was trapped in such a crappy place by the Ghost King.

However, my gaze suddenly shifted to the bed that the Princess of Fengdu was lying on. The only thing that I did not check was that there was someone resting on top of the stone chamber, so it became a blind spot.

"Zhang Ziyuan, carry Princess Xia Ming up. I want to see this bed."

Zhang Ziyuan seemed to understand my meaning. He nodded and carried Princess Xia Ming: "Princess, I apologize."

Sure enough, under Xia Mingtianji's blanket, I saw some strange patterns, it seemed to be the totem of the Ghosts.

"Princess Xia Ming, does your Ghosts have any totem representing your race?"

"Yes, we take the Resurrection Lily as the totem. Because it is a flower that blooms on the Wangchuan River, it is filled with death, and we love it the most."

So that's how it is. Seeing the sculpture of a Manjusaka carved on the bed under the blanket, I had a plan. I activated the sculpture according to a certain pattern and opened up a secret room under the bed.

"You really have a wife. Such a secretive place like this has been found by you."

This was the only way out. "Hurry up and leave. Although we don't know where this passageway leads, it's the only way out."

Zhang Ziyuan carried Princess Xia Ming while I led the way. The tunnel inside was very narrow, as if it was built to save time and not made many modifications.

Walking out of the dark path, he found himself in a small good-for-nothing room beside the entrance of Fengdu Town.

"This is really convenient, it's already a small town as soon as I came out. I called the others and told them to come back quickly and discuss how to tell a mother about his son."

"How is Xia Mingtianji?" When Zhang Shaowu saw the princess's expression, he knew that it was not good. He immediately checked on the situation and shook his head.

"You have no choice? What if it is' apocalypse '? " I thought of Fu Junqing. If there's one other person that can bring Princess Xia Ming back to life, it should be him.

"Now that Fu Junqing is missing, we can't find him. I once called Yunnan and said that he never returned to my master's place."

He actually went missing, to which place, and met with some trouble. Usually, even if Fu Junqing had something on his mind, he would not lose contact with Zhang Shaowu.
