Chapter 93 The Secret in the Underground Tunnel (2)Wen Yantong repeatedly questioned Chi Jingxi. Overwhelmed by the disturbance, he explained the situation in a few simple words.In fact, it was similar to Wen Yantong's: someone had suddenly gotten out from under the bed late at night.Hearing this, Wen Yantong couldn't help but want to complain. Were these people from the secret hideout all cockroach spirits? Why the hell did they want to come out from under other people's beds so much?But after waking up Chi Jingxi, the man had no good end; he was beaten up by Chi Jingxi.Chi Jingxi didn't go into details about the beating, but just said, "I subdued him so that he could no longer move."Wen Yantong originally thought that Chi Jingxi had found something to tie up the man, but later she found out that he directly dislocated the man's shoulders and legs, making him completely unable to move.Then from that man, Chi Jingxi found out about the overall structure of the tunnel, and only then did he learn that there was a self-destruct device inside. He realized that he could not send guards in hastily. If they startled the snake by hitting the grass beside it and caused them to self-destruct their tunnel? Then it would be much harder to find out the purpose of the underground organization of Nian'an Temple.After coming to that point, Chi Jingxi decided to investigate personally with a map.Wen Yantong was in the same situation as him but with different coping methods, however the results were the same.Wen Yantong was a little angry after hearing this. "How can you take such a big risk? Don't you care about your own safety at all?! It's so dangerous down here, no matter what, you should at least bring some guards down to explore the way ahead!"Chi Jingxi raised his eyes, "Are you lecturing me?"Hearing his impatient tone, Wen Yantong hesitated for a while. Ultimately, she chose to harden up and persisted, "Shouldn't you deserve to be lectured? How could you act so recklessly?"Chi Jingxi stood there as he motionlessly looked down at her. Soon Wen Yantong started to feel a bit guilty.Then he suddenly moved his footsteps and walked forward, Wen Yantong hurriedly backed away. She shrank her neck back and cried inwardly: Chi Jingxi wouldnt be angry and wanted to beat her up, right?Chi Jingxi walked forward step by step while Wen Yantong cowered back step by step. Until her back hit the wall and there was no more room for retreat.Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, Wen Yantong caught a glimpse of Chi Jingxi raising his hand. She panicked.Im dead! Wen Yantong wasnt sure if she would be forgiven even if she knelt down and hugged Chi Jingxi's leg to cry for mercy. If it doesn't work, it's not that she wouldnt even mind calling him dad.The moment Chi Jingxi's hand fell, Wen Yantong's knees softened. She was about to kneel, but found that his hand passed her head and pressed on the wall behind her.Wen Yantong's legs straightened immediately.False alarm. She breathed a sigh of relief. While still leaning against the wall, Wen Yantong moved aside.Seeing that she was so frightened, Chi Jingxi squeezed out a low hum, which was audibly mixed with some ridicule.Wen Yantong was livid! She clenched her teeth. Only now did she realize that Chi Jingxi was trying to scare her on purpose!Chi Jingxi felt a lifted dent on the wall, and lifted his firestarter closer to take a clearer look. He found a mechanism button; it was a very square printing described by the person earlier, so he tried to press it in.Then there was the sound of gears and chains turning inside the wall. After a small vibration, a gap opened in the wall, and it was slowly pulled apart.Wen Yantong originally thought that the secret doors were all like those shown in TV dramas. After they were activated, they were very fast and then made a lot of noise. However, after watching it happen before her own eyes, she realized that the speed was not only slow but also happened very quietly.After the door opened, Chi Jingxi walked in. Under the faint light reflected by the firestarter, he saw another wall a couple steps ahead.The door on this wall is very obvious. There was an obvious gap, but there were also glaring traces of scarlet on the door, which seemed to mark its untouchability.Chi Jingxi stated lightly, "Found it."Wen Yantong stood beside him and asked softly, "Is this the self-destruct device?""Behind this door should hold the secret of this underground tunnel." Chi Jingxi handed Wen Yantong the firestarter. He then took out a key and walked towards the door.Wen Yantong hurriedly followed to help illuminate the path. At the same time, she realized that the self-destruct device Chi Jingxi was talking about was actually not a device that destroyed the entire underground tunnel, but a device that destroyed the things in this door.Getting closer to the wall, Wen Yantong obviously smelled a strange smell. It smelled like a mixture of wax, oil, herbs, and something burnt. Although she didn't know what it was, she could tell that whatever it was, as long as it caught fire, it would set ablaze.Chi Jingxi looked down, and then squatted down in the lower left corner of the door. Wen Yantong also squatted down quickly, and saw a very inconspicuous keyhole mark in the lower left corner.He explained unprecedentedly, "This keyhole is connected to the mechanism on the top of the wall. If the mechanism is activated, everything inside of the wall will be covered with burning wax. And then everything behind the door will be completely burned by a fire."Wen Yantong nodded and asked, "But how did you destroy this thing?"Chi Jingxi glanced at her as if he was looking at her fool. Without a word, he inserted the key halfway in, and then pushed it sideways forcefully. The key was abruptly broken by Chi Jingxi with half of it still stuck inside the keyhole.Simple and effective.Wen Yantong scratched her head in embarrassment. "Actually, I already knew how, but I just asked anyway."Chi Jingxi didn't bother to bicker with her. He got up and said, "Let's go."Wen Yantong hurriedly responded, and followed Chi Jingxi's footsteps out. Who knew that when he was about to step out the door, a sharp knife stabbed from the side, aiming directly at Chi Jingxi's neck!Chi Jingxi reacted very quickly. He tilted his head back, and dodged the sharp blade in an instant. He quickly used his wrist and hit the man's hand; there was a crisp sound, and the blade fell out of the persons hand in an instant.Without missing a second, Chi Jingxi kicked towards Wen Yantong's feet. "Pick it up!"
