Chapter 77 Nosebleed
Zhou Zhao quickly took back the dagger, and he and Su Changying chose the nearest dark corridor and got in.
Su Changying grabbed her waist and jumped lightly. This time the two of them were lucky. There was a protrusion protruding from the top of the corridor, which was dark enough to hide people.
"Are we just going around in circles down there every night until dawn?"
Zhou Zhao listened to Tianquan's familiar voice, looked around and found a thin gap in the stone wall. He turned around suddenly and lay down on the rock wall like a gecko.
"Can't take a nap? Can't drink water? Can't go out?" Tianquan said nonchalantly, as if he was annoyed by his question. The man in the blue robe standing at the end couldn't help but said, "You If you want to rest, you can rest, but you can only rest in a place with pillars.”
“You can see Chu Gong’s place if you walk around a little bit longer.”
Tianquan got the answer, glanced at the mechanism pillar, saw the dark red giant tree that seemed to grow between heaven and earth, and then looked at the tightly fitting mechanism structures on it, he couldn't help but deepen his eyes.
He did not continue to ask questions, but followed the group of people silently, walking towards a dark corridor like a night wandering god.
After they left, Zhou Zhao and Su Changying returned to the mechanism pillar again.
Su Changying picked up the long sword and stabbed it towards the gap between the two levels. The long sword bent, but the mechanism pillar was still unscathed.
The two looked at each other, their eyes particularly solemn.
"There should be seven such pillars. Six are on the periphery, just like this one. The seventh pillar should be the key to controlling the mechanism. The seventh pillar is the human head, and the rest are the limbs and body. Even if we can't If you blow their heads off, you will at least have to cut off their hands and feet.”
"If what we think is true, on July 15th, Qin Tianying wants to kill everyone in Tianying City for blood sacrifice..."
"Then think about it, is there any mechanism that can accomplish this in an instant?"
Su Changying's eyes flickered, and he thought of the institutions they had come into contact with these days, and his heart was heavy, "The ground is sinking, and spikes are growing in the tunnels, which can kill people, and blood will flow along the tunnels. If they fall from a high place, they will be killed." People were thrown to death and buried..."
Tianying City felt like an earthquake, and the entire city collapsed and ceased to exist.
Zhou Zhao listened and sighed softly. If it was just a guess before, now that he saw such exquisite mechanism skills, he felt that it was entirely possible.
As she was thinking about it, she saw Su Changying put away the long sword. He drew a strange shape in the air with his hand, then stretched out a finger and stabbed at one of the small pieces of the mechanism. There was a click, and the fragment about half the size of a palm was dented by his poke, and then fell down.
The moment the fragment was about to fall to the ground, Zhou Zhao raised his foot, placed it under the fragment, kicked it up and grabbed it in his hand.
The moment the piece of wood was held in her hand, Zhou Zhao was so cold that she shivered, but she didn't care too much. She stuffed the piece of wood into the pocket on her waist, and then looked at Su Changying with bright eyes.
"So you can poke it with your inner strength?"
Su Changying shook his head, "It's not a day's work, we may not have enough time, and we can't poke a few every day. People may find out after one day, and it will be a trap the next day."
Zhou Zhao frowned, indeed, this method would not work.
She thought and took a deep breath, "You give me a break. I want to memorize all the fragments on this pillar and see if I can find any patterns in them."
Su Changying was stunned. It was such a big pillar, with many traps and strange shapes. Zhou Zhao wanted to memorize them all?
Is this still a brain that humans can have?
But he didn't say anything, and slowly stepped back, holding the long sword in his hand and listening to the wind in all directions.
Zhou Zhao circled around the pillar. Her speed was very slow at first. It took her a long time to move one foot, but then she suddenly became faster. Su Changying watched as she kept circling around the pillar, getting higher and higher until she reached the top.
"Zhou Zhao." Su Changying immediately reminded him when he heard the footsteps coming from far away.
Zhou Zhao lightly kicked the pillar, and like an arrow off the string, he shot towards Su Changying. Su Changying's pupils suddenly shrank, and he stretched out his hand and turned around with Zhou Zhao. He took off the impact of her, then chose a deserted corridor, held her in his arms and galloped away.
It wasn't until the surroundings returned to silence that he let go of the little girl in his arms.
"You have a nosebleed."
Zhou Zhao made a confused sound and reached out to touch the bottom of her nose. As expected, her hand was filled with scarlet red. Just as she was about to wipe it with her sleeve, a handkerchief was handed over to her. The veil was snow-white, with an almost invisible osmanthus flower embroidered in the lower right corner.
There is only one flower, and the petals are light yellow the size of rice grains.
Zhou Zhao looked at it, the corners of his mouth raised, she covered her nose and looked at Su Changying, "Did you embroider this?"
Su Changying's face turned red and she looked away uncomfortably. He did not answer.
He didn't know why, as a martial arts master, he could still embroider.
And with just one stitch, the embroidered flowers are still real.
He didn't understand it before, but he probably understands it now.

"I've remembered it all. We can't go out until dawn. Let's go look at another pillar to see if it's the same. Then we'll go see the place I mentioned before, which is the same authentic building as Xuanwu Hall. The wall that connects ”
Su Changying did not refute and nodded gently.
Zhou Zhao closed his eyes, thought about the map in his mind, raised his hand and pointed, "Go this way, this is the closest."
As soon as she finished speaking, the two of them turned into two black shadows and shot out in a whoosh. This time they saw the second mechanism pillar faster than before.
Su Changying was still showing off, and Zhou Zhao was circling around the pillar. Now Zhou Zhao only looked around casually, then jumped down, "Same, continue to follow me."
She said and stepped forward, arriving at her destination in a short while.
The back of the wall in front should be the corridor of Xuanwu Hall, Zhou Zhao thought, and suddenly stopped. He could only hear the pattering sound and the sound of someone talking from the other end of the corridor.
"But I'm suffocated to death. It's better to patrol with Yuheng. She can let us brothers take a breather."
Zhou Zhao's eyes darkened as he listened.
She finally understood why she could vaguely hear someone speaking when she was pressed against the stone wall at the end of the underground corridor of Xuanwu Hall. It was clear that when Tianquan was patrolling just now, those men in blue robes ignored him and did not say a word during the march.
After working on it for a long time, this is actually Gongfang.
Fortunately, she didn't forcefully break through the wall that day, otherwise, she wouldn't have stepped into the latrine!
"I really don't understand. They patrol every day, every day. Not to mention outsiders, there isn't even a mouse. I don't know why they are patrolling."
"Why do you care so much? You guys like us should be blind and blind. Do whatever the city lord tells you to do. But the city lord said that there is a ghost in Tianying City, and it's in the inner seven halls. What's the inner ghost? Ghosts are bound to come here. If we catch them, we won’t have to worry about them for the rest of our lives.”
