Chapter 3263 Flower Pot
There are many aborigines and adventurers in the town, more than when Ji Xiaoyan came before.
Because he was afraid that too many people would be too conspicuous, Ji Xiaoyan asked the guards in Qingcheng to disperse and finally gathered outside the mayor's mansion. And when they arrived outside the mayor's house, they saw that there were not many aborigines lining up outside the mayor's house, only a dozen or so, which seemed to be just two or three groups.
So, Ji Xiaoyan and the others did not wait long before they successfully entered the mayor's mansion.
"Let's all search separately, first look for the places where the flowers and plants exist!" Ji Xiaoyan glanced at the guards in Qingcheng, and after they dispersed, they started to take action.
Ji Xiaoyan also brought several guards from Qingcheng with her and began to search for a garden or other places in the mayor's mansion. However, after looking around, she couldn't find any in the mayor's mansion. In the garden, there were not even a few flowers and plants to be found. This was somewhat different from the news told by the aboriginal child and the aborigines in the town!
"Logically speaking, since the mayor of this town has bought so many flowers and plants, he must have a garden to plant them. The aboriginal child also said that the mayor I only stay in the mayor’s mansion on weekdays. It seems impossible to plant flowers and plants outside the mayor’s mansion, right?”
So, with so many flowers and plants, go there. Where is it?
Ji Xiaoyan couldn’t understand!
"City Lord, is it possible that those flowers and plants are quite valuable, so the aboriginal people who came before pulled them away?" A Qingcheng guard suddenly thought of this possibility. , couldn't help but ask Ji Xiaoyan.
"But if it is pulled out, there must be traces! We have walked around the mayor's mansion, and we haven't seen any place where flowers and plants are planted! The flowers and plants are gone, and it is generally a bit muddy. Right?" Ji Xiaoyan also frowned and said with some confusion.
"Then, Lord City Lord, is it true that there is a secret room in this town?" A guard from Qingcheng immediately proposed this idea and looked at Ji Xiaoyan seriously Said: "Otherwise, where did the rumors in this town come from? After all, the aborigines really found something!"
"If that's the case, it would be even harder to find. Yes!" Ji Xiaoyan frowned, looked around the mayor's mansion, and then said seriously: "In this case, the secret room may not be in the mayor's mansion, so that means We still have to search outside with so many aboriginals and adventurers! No matter who finds this, it will be a struggle!"
When Ji Xiaoyan thought of a fight, he was confused at the moment. I felt a little depressed.
"Then City Lord, what are we going to do now?" The guards following Ji Xiaoyan were also a little worried and couldn't help but ask her.
"We'll wait for the others to come back and take a look at the situation! If we really can't find anything, we'll walk around the town. If there are no clues, we'll go back!" Ji Xiaoyan also had a look of helplessness on his face. I was already thinking about what I should say to the aboriginal child after I returned to Qingcheng.
The remaining Qingcheng guards soon came to join Ji Xiaoyan, almost all of them without any gains.
After sighing and asking someone to count the number of people, Ji Xiaoyan was ready to take the people away.
Nowadays, in the mayor's mansion, there are not many aborigines looking for things. Everyone is attracted by the news of the treasure map, and almost all of them are wandering around the town.
"Lord City Lord! Lord City Lord!"
At this time, several Qingcheng guards suddenly ran back with a somewhat excited expression on their faces. Ji Xiaoyan's heart tightened and he was a little bit expectant.
"What's wrong?"
"Lord City Lord, we found a flowerpot in the main hall of the mayor's mansion!" A guard from Qingcheng quickly said to Ji Xiaoyan, look. Looking at her confused and somewhat disappointed expression, she quickly said Said: "There is also a withered flower in that flower pot."
"If it's just a withered flower, what's the point of telling the Lord of the City so excitedly?"
< br>"No no no! That potted flower is a bit strange "Yes!" The Qingcheng guard who heard the question quickly shook his head and said seriously to Ji Xiaoyan: "We have searched in the mayor's mansion and basically didn't see any traces of planting flowers, so we went to the palace. I went to check it out and happened to see the potted flower. I just thought that the Lord City Lord asked us to look for flowers. We didn’t see any other flowers. This pot of flowers can be considered a flower, so I thought I would bring it over to show you the Lord City Lord! But I didn’t expect that we would go forward to move the flowers. Potted flowers cannot be moved!”
"Can't move?!" Ji Xiaoyan was stunned for a moment, but also felt that it was interesting.
"Yes. The flower pot is quite big. It looks like it can at least plant several flowers and plants. However, there is only one flower and plant that can barely be seen in the pot. The pot is thick and thick. A layer of rotten leaves after withered flowers and plants, so we thought about , Lord City Lord, please go over and take a look, maybe that flowerpot is a little different!"
When Ji Xiaoyan heard this, he couldn't help but look forward to it, and immediately said to everyone: " In that case, let's go and take a look But, are there any other aborigines in the main hall? "No! There are still some of us left!" The returning Qingcheng guards quickly shook their heads and looked at Ji. Xiaoyan said: "Don't worry, City Lord, we will guard "
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go and take a look!" Upon hearing this, Ji Xiaoyan immediately glanced at everyone and ran towards the main hall. Going over, I saw their Qingcheng guards standing outside the palace.
"You leave some people outside. If there are aborigines coming, stop them and ask them to line up behind!" Before entering the main hall, Ji Xiaoyan couldn't help but order the Qingcheng guards behind him. After saying a few words, he stepped into the main hall.
Ji Xiaoyan and the others had been to the main hall of the mayor's mansion twice, but they had never seen any flower pots before, so she was curious about who the guards of Qing City were. Where to find the immovable flower pot.
The main hall is very simple. There is the hall in the front and the living rooms in the back. There are quite a few rooms, but almost none of them have anything of value. The aborigines who come in each round take these places Turned upside down.
"Lord City Lord, the flower pot is in the back corner." The Qingcheng guard who led the way said to Ji Xiaoyan expectantly, and led her into the last room of the main hall, and then In a small corner next to the room, I found a corridor for only one person to enter and exit. He said to Ji Xiaoyan: "Going in from here, there is only a small place, and there is only one flowerpot in it! There is nothing else." "Why didn't we see that there is a road here before?" Ji Xiaoyan saw it in front of him. In the corridor, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, with a strange look on his face.
"It's normal that the city lord hasn't seen it before." A Qingcheng guard said with a smile, "There were a lot of flower vines covering the entrance of the corridor before. But if we get rid of the flower vines, we can only think that this is a wall. Ah! When we came here before, we didn’t let it go. He Jiaojiao fiddled with the flower vines and found it here!"
"So that's it!" Ji Xiaoyan felt relieved a lot after hearing this explanation. Naturally, I saw a piece of green flower vine leaves being opened and hanging on the wall.
"How many people can go inside?" After thinking about it, Ji Xiaoyan asked first.
"Maybe only about ten people can enter! The space inside is not big!" The Qingcheng guard thought for a moment and said seriously to Ji Xiaoyan, "The main thing is that the flower pot looks pretty good. Take a seat.”
“Then enter. Just five people will do!" Ji Xiaoyan thought for a moment and said something to the Qingcheng guards behind him. Then he motioned to the previous Qingcheng guards to lead the way. The group squeezed into the corridor and walked in. Sure enough, they soon saw the exit. Naturally, I saw the so-called space.
Everything was just as the Qingcheng guards said.
This is a very narrow space, square and square, with a flowerpot in the middle that is big enough for two people to hug. The flowerpot looked like it was carved from a piece of stone, but there were no patterns on it. Instead, it was covered with all kinds of green moss. It looked like it had been there for several years.
In the flowerpot, there was only one little lifeless flower that looked like it was about to wither, with its head hanging down, standing so lonely and dying inside.
"Look, City Lord!" A guard from Qingcheng quickly walked to the flower pot, pointed at the flower pot and said to her: "The thick layer inside is all rotten. There are grass leaves and flower petals. We dug so deep that we didn’t even see the soil!”
Hearing this, Ji Xiaoyan hurried forward and watched the Qingcheng guard peel off the underside of the little flower with his hands again! As expected, I saw the rotten leaves. I dug so deep that I couldn't see any soil.
"This is a bit strange!" Ji Xiaoyan couldn't help but frown when he saw this situation.
"Yes! Lord of the City!" The Qingcheng guard also nodded immediately and said seriously to Ji Xiaoyan: "We also think it's a little strange here! You see, such a hidden place, there are only There is such a flower pot hidden, and there is nothing else. Not to mention, this flower pot is so thick that there is nothing. Mud, what's more, this flower pot can't be moved, it seems to have taken root here, which is a bit strange!"
"What is under this flower pot?" After hearing this, he immediately squatted down curiously and looked under the flower pot, but still couldn't see anything clearly. At the foot of the flower pot, there is almost all green moss, connected to the ground, and you can't see anything clearly.
"Lord City Lord, how about we try to pry it open?" A Qingcheng guard immediately suggested, "There are so many of us, it's impossible to move even a flower pot!"
“Yes, yes, try it!”
Ji Xiaoyan walked around the flowerpot, touched it, and finally nodded. She also wanted to see if the flowerpot really couldn't be moved, but she was more curious about why the flowerpot was like this. Being here so alone.
If you haven’t seen all the flowers and plants that the mayor of this town bought, is it possible that they were all planted in this flower pot? In the end, it withered and turned into fertilizer in the flower pot? That’s why there are so many rotten leaves in this flower pot!
“Pry it open and take a look!” Ji Xiaoyan gestured to the guards in Qingcheng, then stepped aside, watching them take out their weapons and start to pry around the flower pot. stand up. However, after the Qing City guards broke several swords, the flower pot did not appear to be disturbed at all.
"Lord City Lord, there must be something weird about this flowerpot!" The guards in Qingcheng did not feel frustrated or angry at all. Instead, they became even more excited and looked at Ji Xiaoyan. Asked: "Lord City Lord, this flowerpot cannot be pried, why don't we just dig down!"
"Dig!" Ji Xiaoyan also looked forward to it.
Is it possible that the town stone is hidden underneath this flowerpot that cannot be pried?
How can such a special place be worthy of such a hidden hiding place if there is no town stone underneath?
The Qingcheng guards also had the same idea. After hearing Ji Xiaoyan's nod, they began to pry up the stone slabs around the flower pots, and then began to dig deeper into the ground.
Although this matter takes some time and effort, the hard work pays off!
When he saw that the guards of Qingcheng actually dug out a huge stone pillar under the flower pot, and there was a hollow grid in the center of the stone pillar, Ji Xiaoyan knew that this time, they Maybe we really have found the town stone. After all, only town stones would be hidden underground like this, right? !
"Lord City Lord, let's bring you the things inside! Just don't come down!" The Qingcheng guard standing in the pit quickly asked Ji Xiaoyan. After watching her nod, he carefully put the things inside. After cleaning the hollow grid in the middle of the stone pillar, he reached in and took out a wooden box from inside.
Ji Xiaoyan took the box and saw a small lock on the box. It was not that easy to open it. "Lord City Lord, let's pick the lock!" A guard from Qingcheng immediately asked Ji Xiaoyan eagerly, but he looked at Ji Xiaoyan and shook his head to express no.
“It’s better to take this box back and give it to the aboriginal child!”
“But Lord City Lord, what if it doesn’t contain the town stone? "The guards of Qingcheng couldn't help but frowned, and asked with some worry: "If this is not the town stone, we will have to come to this town again, and it will be troublesome to teleport by then!"
