Xiao Jiaojiao is the queen in the last days

Chapter 48
After the competition, the awards are presented in the palace, and only the top three can have this qualification and honor.

Of course, Shi Jing and Gao Xiaoxiao will not forget their most important purpose.

Before meeting Shi Jing and the others, Xiaoyu and his father had been thinking about this matter for a long time.It's just that relying on the two of them before, I never had the courage and confidence to do it.

However, the weapon master and his son have collected a lot of information in the court together with his son over the years. Some of this information came from buying money from gray channels, and a lot of it was obtained from a secret weapon master tribe.In this era, in order to survive, these tool masters will hug each other and share information with each other.

Although entering the court is the most difficult hurdle, it is not easy to successfully steal the mysterious container that was mistaken for a treasure by the lord.

According to the information provided by the weapon master, in the deepest part of the palace, there is a secret door hidden behind the bookshelf.

That is the entrance to the basement, and the lord's greatest secret.Only the lord and his most trusted people knew of the existence of this place. As for how the information flowed into the weapon master group, Gao Xiaoxiao and the others didn't ask, but they guessed it to some extent.The tool master group has wanted to overthrow the regime for a long time, and they must have placed undercover agents in the palace.

However, even if the secret door is found by accident, approaching it rashly or forcing it open will only lead to disaster.

There is a complex combination lock on this secret door, which consists of ten raised stone number keys and a confirmation key.Every time the stone is pressed, the position of the digital stone will change randomly, preventing someone from cracking through observation or trial and error.Only when the stones are pressed in the correct order and confirmed, the hidden door will slowly open.

There is also a small hole in the combination lock. If the sequence is wrong or the specified time is exceeded, a highly poisonous gas will be emitted, killing people immediately.This gas was specially extracted by the lord from the poisonous snakes in the south, and there is no antidote to save it.

Behind the secret door is a long stone step leading to the depths of the ground.

There are many torches on both sides of the stone steps, illuminating the road ahead.The torch exudes a faint light and heat, making people feel a little warm and safe.However, these torches are not for the convenience of walking, but to cover the traps on the ground.Every few steps, there will be a pressure plate, once you step on it, different mechanisms will be triggered.Some will shoot darts, some will release steel knives, some will drop boulders, and some will spew flames.These organs are composed of precise gears and springs, hidden in the walls or ceilings.Only by remembering the correct footwork can you pass safely.

There are 360 ​​five-level stone steps, representing the number of days in a year.After every hundred levels, there will be a fork in the road.There are three directions to choose from at the fork in the road: left, right and forward.Only one of these directions is correct, the other two are dead ends.

If you go in the wrong direction, you will enter a closed space.

There are no exits or organs in the space, only a huge iron plate.A word was engraved on the iron plate: DEATH.

Once entering the space, the iron plate will automatically rise and press down hard.No one can escape or resist this force.

The correct direction is determined according to the horoscope of the lord's birthday.

For the first fork in the road, choose the direction corresponding to the birthday of the lord on the left, right or front.For example, if the lord was born in the year of Jiazi, he should choose the left direction, because Jiazi is the first of the sixty Jiazi.If the lord was born in the year of Yichou, he should choose the direction on the right, because Yichou is the second of sixty Jiazi.By analogy, until the year of Guihai, it is necessary to choose the direction ahead, because Guihai is the last of the sixty Jiazi.

For the second fork in the road, choose the direction corresponding to the lord's birth moon on the left, right or front.For example, if the lord was born in the first month, choose the direction to the left, because the first month is the first of December.If the lord was born in February, choose the direction to the right, because February is the second of December.By analogy, until the twelfth lunar month, you must choose the direction ahead, because the twelfth lunar month is the last one in December.

For the third fork in the road, choose the direction corresponding to the lord's birthday on the left, right or front.For example, if the lord was born on the first day of the junior high, he should choose the left direction, because the first day of the junior high is the first of the thirty days.If the lord was born in the second day of junior high school, he should choose the direction on the right, because the second day of junior high school is the second of [-] days.By analogy, until thirty, you have to choose the direction ahead, because thirty is the last of thirty days.

After passing through the three forks, you will come to the end of the stone steps.

There was an iron gate with a huge iron ring on it.A dragon pattern is engraved on the iron ring, representing imperial power and majesty.To open the iron door, you must pull hard on the iron ring and hold down the two eyes on the dragon pattern at the same time.If only the hoop is pulled or only one eye is pressed, another mechanism will be triggered.Behind the iron gate is a thick stone wall covered with sharp iron nails.Once the mechanism is activated, the stone wall will move forward quickly, crushing anyone into a meatloaf.

Behind the iron gate is the main entrance of the basement, which is also the last checkpoint.The main gate is made of metal and jade, inlaid with various precious gemstones and patterns.The front door had no lock or handle, just a circular recess.To open the main door, a special gold coin must be put into the groove and turned at a certain angle.The gold coin is a special badge for the lord, with his name and birth date engraved on it.Putting in the wrong coin or turning it at the wrong angle will trigger the deadliest trap.

There are two huge springs hidden on both sides of the main entrance. Once the mechanism is activated, two thick iron rods will pop out and penetrate the human body from the left and right sides simultaneously.These two iron rods are made of the hardest steel and coated with a highly poisonous liquid medicine.No one can resist or dodge this attack.

Only after passing all these organs can one enter the basement.

Inside the basement is another world, with countless gold and silver jewellery, ancient books and paintings, magical medicines, rare and exotic beasts... and the secrets that the lord most do not want to be known.

The basement is divided into four areas, representing the four seasons: spring, summer, autumn and winter.Each area has a theme and a password.To enter each area, the correct code must be pressed and the corresponding behavior performed according to the theme.If the order of pressing is wrong or the behavior does not match, the corresponding organ will be triggered.
