Chapter 194 Sword
The group returned to the mural. Yun Qingrou glanced at the spot where Yun Qingyi had pressed down; the dent had not yet been smoothed out.
"Sister, how did you discover the unusual thing about this mural?"
"Do you remember the route we took just now?" Yun Qingyi asked.
"Hmm?" Yun Qingrou recalled that they hadn't been walking into the palace in a conventional way, it was just...
She seemed to have thought of something, and a flash of inspiration struck her.
"Sister, is it the decoration of those rooms?" Thinking of this, Yun Qingrou looked at the figures in the mural: "The style of decoration of those rooms is very similar to the clothing of the figures in the mural. Although we did not walk in according to a set pattern, the style and order are surprisingly consistent with the mural."
She gave her an approving look: "That's right, exactly. Every step we took inside seemed to be anticipated, just like the style of the murals." Yun Qingyi said to the group.
They then looked at the murals together: "In those rooms, although the decorative styles are similar, there is only one place that is exactly the same."
Yun Qingrou's eyes lit up, and she looked at the indentation again: "Indeed, the indentation that Sister just pressed on is exactly the same place that is related to the mural in that room."
Ji Zhaoze thought for a moment and then said, "If I'm not mistaken, the similar spot that Junior Sister just pressed is in the first room."
“Yes, that’s right,” Yun Qingyi said. Then she felt around on the wall, thought about what she had just seen, and pressed on the embroidered ball in the second figure’s hand. The embroidered ball gradually dented.
The rumbling sound of tectonic plates shifting came again. She looked at everyone and said, "Let's do this, trying to find all the hidden places one by one."
"Okay." The others responded and walked towards the direction from which the sound came. This time, the room was located deeper inside the palace.
After walking for a while, the group arrived at this brand-new room.
Upon arriving at the location, the mermaid princess pushed open the door without hesitation. Before Yun Qingyi could react and stop her, the door had already been pushed open.
The moment she opened the door, Yun Qingyi instinctively tackled the mermaid princess standing at the doorway to the ground.
At the same time, countless sharp swords shot out from above the doorway, until they embedded themselves in the wall not far away.
"This..." Upon seeing the sword, the mermaid princess was stunned: "What's going on? This hidden room actually has a trap!!"
"It would be strange if there wasn't one." Yun Qingyi looked at her helplessly and got up from the ground. "Didn't I tell you when we came in? Be careful of danger."
The mermaid princess felt a little ashamed. She had been a little wary at first, but since there was no danger in the room and she thought that this place was the ruins of the same race of her predecessors, she felt that there should be no danger, so she gradually relaxed her vigilance.
Thinking about it, she lowered her head guiltily: "I'm sorry, seniors, I've caused you trouble."
Yun Qingyi didn't offer much comfort. Besides disliking incompetent teammates, she was genuinely angry this time. The fact that she hadn't paid attention to things she had reminded her of repeatedly made her quite upset.
She glanced at the mermaid princess indifferently: "This is the last time."
"Yes, yes." Seeing that Yun Qingyi was not too harsh on her, the mermaid princess immediately expressed her gratitude and said, "I will never make such a low-level mistake again in the future."
"However..." the mermaid princess asked with some doubt, "How did you know that a sharp sword would be shot out?"
Yun Qingrou and Ji Zhaoze, who had been dodging the swords, came over. Yun Qingrou picked up where the mermaid princess left off, saying, "The fact that you have such a question means that Liangmeng, you didn't look at the embroidered ball carefully just now."
"Huh?" Upon hearing this, the mermaid princess looked somewhat bewildered: "What's wrong with that embroidered ball?"
Yun Qingrou said calmly, "The tassel-like thing under the embroidered ball that my sister just pressed down is the sword."
