The government was sending out wives, and I ended up with a princess from the previous dynasty!

"This mechanical city is too dangerous. I'd better not take the risk."

Upon hearing this, Jia Daoshi shook his head and said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Yu Yanshu's face immediately showed a strange expression: "Chief Jia, fortune favors the bold. If you don't go, then this master will be the one to benefit."

Jia Daoshi smiled faintly: "Please go ahead, Master Yu."

Yu Yanshu gave Jia Daoshi a deep look, then turned around and said, "Chisu, let's go."

"Yes!"

After saying this, the beautiful aunt and niece turned and left.

Weng Changting stepped forward, walked to Jia Daoshi's side, and shook his head, saying, "Young master, this is not like you at all."

Jia Daoshi laughed heartily: "Changting, then tell me, how is this not like me?"

Weng Changting smiled charmingly and teased, "Let alone treasures, even the fish by the manor would leave a few pieces of meat if they met a gentleman. We've gone through so much trouble to get here, how could we possibly leave empty-handed?"

She clearly remembered that when she first met Jia Daoshi, she was taken advantage of quite a bit.

Under the somewhat teasing gazes of the women, Jia Daoshi felt a little embarrassed. He immediately coughed lightly, took Weng Changting's hand, and said, "Ahem, my wife knows me best! Alright, let's go get the treasure. This way."

Looking in the direction Jia Daoshi pointed.

A glint flashed in Weng Changting's beautiful eyes: "It seems that you and I have the same idea!"

This place is still very big.

However, the contents inside were clearly not as plentiful as the heroes of the martial arts world had imagined.

Scattered jewels, signs of a fight, and decaying skeletons can still be vaguely seen on the ground.

This indicates that a fierce fight took place in this place!

The treasures inside might have been taken away during these fights!

In fact, Jia Daoshi didn't care about gold, silver, jewelry, or martial arts manuals at all.

He came here for only one thing!

There are many places inside the Xuanwu mechanical beast where you can hide things.

But there is only one place to hide the real treasure!

Jia Daoshi led the women through the main hall.

This place is much larger than Jia Daoshi had anticipated!

After the heroes of the martial arts world dispersed, they quickly disappeared without a trace.

"Young master, where are you taking us?" Yi Qianxiao followed behind Jia Daoshi, her face full of curiosity.

Although it was his first time there, Jia Daoshi walked around the spacious hall as if he knew the way like an old horse.

This place appears to be a closed space, but the air is very fresh, indicating that it has a specially designed air circulation system.

At each corridor, Weng Changting would take out a tinderbox and light the torches beside the corridor!

These torches are also very cleverly designed; once one is lit, the flame can travel along the fuse all the way to the next torch!

Until the entire corridor was lit up.

Jia Daoshi took Murong Jiu's hand and asked, "Has your family ever lost any treasures?"

"baby?"

Murong Jiu tilted her head and thought for a moment, then looked at Di Qinglin beside her.

When the Great Jing Dynasty fell, she had already taken her most precious possessions with her.

If there's anything else, it can only be that thing that exists in royal legends.

According to legend, after establishing his dynasty, Emperor Qingtai would often examine a box in his hand.

Legend has it that the box contains the power to control the world.

This box is called the Illusionary Sound Box.

It is said that when Emperor Qing Tai set sail, he took the Illusionary Sound Box with him.

This treasure box is closely connected with the sea goddess!

Emperor Qing brought out the Illusionary Sound Box because he wanted the "female immortal" in the sea to come forward and unlock its secrets!

"Could it be the Illusionary Sound Box?"

Murong Jiu paused for a moment, somewhat unsure.

After all, it's just a legend circulating in the royal family.

Although the subsequent emperors all wanted to find this thing, it was clear that no matter how hard you looked, you could not find it!

"That's right, it's this very treasure box!"

Jia Daoshi nodded.

"How did you know this thing would be hidden here?" Di Qinglin asked, puzzled.

“That’s what the letter said.” Jia Daoshi shrugged.

Jia Daoshi and Yu Yanshu had some communication before and made some speculations about what happened back then.

In Jia Daoshi's view, the "female immortals" at sea mentioned by Emperor Qingtai were mostly people from Liyue Harbor.

After Liyue Harbor was destroyed by a meteorite, its original inhabitants, for reasons unknown, all migrated overseas.

The Phantom Sound Box is a product of Liyue Harbor.

"Alright, we've arrived."

After explaining for a few minutes, Jia Daoshi quickly arrived at his destination.

The women looked around and found that it was just an ordinary passageway, with a smooth bluestone road behind them and another road in front of them.

As for the two sides, they are solid walls!

What treasures could be hidden in this place?

Isn't this all air?

"Don't look around, don't look at the ground, lift your heads and look up."

Jia Daoshi said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the women looked up at the direction above them.

There, right above us, were murals!

The strokes were drawn with sword marks!

Same recipe, same taste!

It gives people a familiar feeling!

"These are... the Four Symbols of Heaven, used to govern the four directions; this is the Azure Dragon among the Four Symbols..."

Looking at the brushstrokes that exuded an extremely strong sword intent, Weng Changting murmured.

Although the mural lacks vibrant colors, the sword marks are incredibly lifelike, like iron hooks drawn with silver strokes!

Each sword mark is like a sword aura, seemingly about to break through the wall!

"Rumor has it that the founder of the Drywood Sect once raised a dragon. Is that true?" Yi Qianxiao asked with a gossipy look on his face.

Jia Daoshi shook his head: "The rumors are so outrageous, there's no such thing in the world. These four spirits should be the four mechanical beasts."

Yi Qianxiao turned around: "Is it the one whose head was smashed by the young master?"

"If I'm not mistaken, it is that one. That azure dragon was originally hidden underground, and this place is where its dragon body was coiled. I just don't know what mechanism it triggered, which is why it was released."

A glint appeared in Ji Bingyan's eyes: "I remember now, the Azure Dragon mechanical beast and the White Tiger mechanical beast were both soaking wet, so they obviously came out of the water first! So they were originally inside this mountain, but some kind of mechanism awakened them, and that's how they came out from the underground river!"

"So, it seems there's something else out there beneath our feet!"

Faced with Ji Bingyan's guess, Jia Daoshi smiled slightly: "My princess wife is quite clever!"

Ji Bingyan blushed, a proud and smug look on her face. This kid always said that she was all looks and no brains, but now she finally got to slap him in the face!

This princess is still very clever and intelligent!
