Heavenly Dao Formula

Li Xing squatted down, stared at the stairs for a long time, and suddenly raised his eyebrows, "This staircase...is not straight!"

He pointed to the side of the volley, "Look at the edge of the pedal, each level protrudes a little more than the level below it."

Zhao Dahai observed the direction pointed by the other party for a while, and also noticed the strangeness, "Oh, it really is."

The protrusion is so slight that it is difficult to catch by the eye alone that the stairs are actually set back.

If the distance is longer, or if you look at it from a distance, you may be able to quickly find the difference, but there are many debris in the inn that block the line of sight, and there is also a turning point in the middle of the corridor, which makes this change subtly covered up.

The conclusion is already drawn.

There is also a dark building hidden in the middle of this building.

Li Xing began to knock on the wooden wall, trying to determine its hollow position through the change of sound.

But after knocking twice, Zhao Dahai stretched out his hand to stop him, "We have to go."

Li Xing followed the other party's gaze, and saw that there were already people in the hotel lobby looking towards this side. Obviously, their behavior of staying in the corridor for a long time had attracted the attention of outsiders.

"My apprentice said that if you find anything, you can report it to him immediately. It's better for us to avoid getting involved in things like confrontation."

Li Xing hesitated, and finally withdrew his hand.

"You're right."

After all, the Donghai Gang is not an ordinary gang of gangsters. If someone who is angry secretly attacks them, they may not even have a chance to resist.

The two pretended to be nonchalant and left the inn quickly.

...

"Is there a hidden building in the middle of the mahogany building on Wangfu Street?" After hearing the report from the Chengnan Group, Xia Fan was quite surprised. It's not because the other party hides cleverly, but this kind of subtle changes in the distance between the inside and outside can be measured by the number of steps, which is really unexpected for Li Xing.

"However, this width is fine for a warehouse, and it shouldn't be able to accommodate too many gang members." Xu Sanzhong judged.

"But it's worth our further investigation on the fact that someone deliberately concealed it." Xia Fan looked at Zhao Dahai and Li Xing, "Did you find any entrance mechanisms like secret doors or traps on the outside?"

Li Xing shook his head, "In fact, even when I knocked on the wall, I couldn't feel the hollow inside."

"Okay, you two go down and rest first, the next investigation will be taken over by the alchemist team."

After the two left the lobby, Xia Fan immediately sent someone to recall Li and Shan Hui, and then cupped his hands to Xu Sanchong, "Master Xu, these two streets are deeply involved, I'm afraid I need the power of the princess."

Xu Sanzhong clasped his fists in return, "Lord Xia is serious. His Highness has already explained that you are the first in this matter. If you have any requests, please do so."

"That's easy to talk about." Xia Fan walked to the map of Jinxia City with a smile, and pointed to several street intersections on the map, "I hope you can send someone to secretly watch these locations and prepare to close the streets. Once the information is obtained Confirm that when the Privy Council begins its operation, it is best not to let any enemy go."

...

At four quarters in the afternoon, a fox and a dog jumped onto the roof of the Redwood Building without anyone noticing.

They didn't find many valuable clues in the previous search of the pier, so after receiving Xia Fan's notice, the two demons took a short rest, and when they recovered a little, they immediately rushed to the new designated location.

"It's almost here." Li Zhaoshanhui pouted, "Take out the tools."

The latter put down the cloth bag in his mouth and spread it out, revealing the iron tools such as drill bits and knives inside.

"You lift the tiles first."

Obediently, Shan Hui stretched out his front paws, and removed the tiles covering the roof one by one, until the dry gray grass soil was exposed to the sun.

"Then use a knife to cut a square opening." Li continued.

"Why am I doing it?" Shanhui suddenly felt that something was wrong, "Can't you help me?"

Li lay down unhurriedly, and stretched his tail, "I have to think about the problem in order to plan ahead. It takes a lot of energy. How about we switch, you use your brain to give orders, and I will do it." How is work?"

Shan Hui was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and bit the knife, "Then I'll do it."

"That's right." The fox narrowed his eyes, and began to supervise the work with peace of mind.

If an outsider sees this scene, they will be stunned. The two animals will come together to carry out an orderly and controllable "destruction" of bricks and tiles that are neither tasty nor useful. And what they use is not fangs and claws, but quite professional human tools.

This method came from Xia Fan's idea.

Since the Donghai Gang can find such a hidden place, the entrance must be hidden deeper, and there are probably not a few secret sentries and guards. It may be quite difficult to sneak in from the entrance.

The roof is completely different.

No matter how ingeniously designed the secret door below, the structure of the top of the house is always roughly the same, with rafters on the trusses, and above the rafters are planks, earth and tiles-although it is not possible to directly enter the house by removing the tiles, But it's much easier than cutting a wall. The difference in load-bearing requirements between the two means that it is impossible to play too many tricks on the roof.

After cutting through the mud layer and drilling through the wooden planks, Li Kuo looked at each other with one eye, and his heart skipped a beat! It really wasn't pitch black below, but brightly lit. Under the light of the oil lamp, a continuously spiraling staircase appears in the small hole.

Between the inn and the brothel is a corridor leading to the ground!

"It seems that we have found the right place." Li grinned.

"Then what do we do next?"

"Of course, continue digging." She commanded, "But we have to adjust the position so that the hole is as close to the roof beam as possible, so as to reduce the chance of being discovered."

"Okay." Shan Hui picked up the knife again and started to work hard.

Half an hour later, a three-inch square gap was opened up by the Tengu.

"You are responsible for guarding the rear, and I will explore the front, understand?"

"Wow. Keke...I said 'OK'."

Li An secretly sighed, "Why don't I think it's not good... How about we make a signal signal." She raised a front paw while recalling the gestures she used when she and Xia Fan were exploring the caves in Gaoshan County at night , "This is to follow."

Shan Hui nodded seriously.

Li raised one hind leg again, "This is to stop."

"good."

The fox demon raised its tail, "This is an attack."

"Uh...in the enemy's lair?"

"What if it needs to be used? I'm just preparing in advance." Li finally raised his paw and kicked his foot. "When you see this gesture, retreat immediately and never look back. Do you understand?"

"Okay." Shanhui said he remembered.

"Then let's go in now." Li got into the hole in the roof and climbed up the roof beam lightly. The scorching sun was blocked out immediately, and a cool cold wind blew across her whole body from bottom to top.

Shan Hui, who followed behind, carefully covered the tiles again, cutting off the light from outside.
