The wealthy family is also pretending to be poor for each other today

Floria's palace was huge.

Based on the route he had taken, He Ting roughly estimated the area, which probably occupies one-third of the entire island.

At this moment, Duke George was taking them to the deepest part of the palace.

"It's here."

Finally, in front of a tall tower covered with rust marks, he stopped and took out a key that was also rusty from his arms, and then opened the lock with a 'click' that had almost become rusty lumps on the door. Push the door open forcefully——

Dust and the smell of dampness and decay came out.

"Cough cough cough..."

Everyone was choked and coughed, and even if they fanned hard with their hands, their eyes would still be blurred.

It can be seen that this door has been closed for a long time.

After the dust finally cleared, everyone finally saw the situation in the tower clearly, and couldn't help but look slightly solemn.

Because the first thing I saw inside was a skeleton wearing a golden crown and holding an unsheathed sword in his hand, kneeling on one knee and facing an entrance on the ground!

It's just...the golden crown is covered with dust, and the sword is covered with cobwebs.

It's quite a bit depressing.

"She is the first queen of Floria, Eunice Cairora Von, the god who forever protects this island and its endless wealth."

Facing this skeleton, Duke George knelt down on one knee with great piety and put his right hand on his chest, "Inadvertently disturbing your sleep, dear Queen Eunice, just for the survival of the Principality of Floria, I must not Don’t open this door.”

Coincidentally.

A gust of breeze blew in from nowhere, blowing some of the dust off the golden crown and sword, and then landed on the tip of Duke George's nose, as if an invisible hand was gently brushing against them.

"Thank you, great Queen Eunice."

Duke George smiled upon seeing this, and then stood up respectfully before turning to everyone again, "The Queen I has forgiven us for intruding rashly. Your Highness Kayun, please come to the front to say hello to her."

Qiao Yayun herself was unwilling to do so.

However, in order to find out and get the result, she still walked over, and then knelt down on one knee in accordance with Duke George's request, and said softly, "I, Kayun Yanila George Feng, the soon-to-be-crowned queen The 44th generation solemnly offers you my highest greetings."

Ye Ning's eyes narrowed slightly.

The Principality of Floria has been inherited for such a long time?

She couldn't help but look at the skeleton a few more times, and found that there seemed to be something on the back that was shining slightly in the sunlight.

So, she pretended to move over casually and observed carefully.

It turned out to be the case.

The entire spine of the skeleton is connected by metal. It is estimated that it has been too old to withstand the weathering of the environment, so it was reinforced with this method. The same is true for the joints of the hands and feet.

'Buzz'——

The phone suddenly rang.

Ye Ning took out her phone but saw only a bunch of garbled virtual numbers. She frowned and immediately picked up, "Hello?"

"Don't trust the Duke."

What came from the other side was the voice of the artificial intelligence Hera! ?

Ye Ning was stunned for a moment instinctively, but her eyes were already looking at Duke George subconsciously, and she found that he had retreated to the corner without knowing it, and placed his hand on a hook protruding from the wall!

Oops!

An alarm bell rang in Ye Ning's heart, "Get out quickly!"

"what?"

The rest of the people didn't know why, but they all immediately turned around and ran out of the tower door because they trusted from the bottom of their hearts.

but--

"Haha, we were discovered!"

Upon seeing this, Duke George immediately laughed coldly, "But unfortunately, it's too late!"

After saying that, he pulled the iron hook hard.

'Crack-click-click'!

As if the gears in the torrent of destiny began to slowly turn, the tower gate that was so close was directly blocked by the suddenly falling boulder, and the ground suddenly became empty at this moment!

"what!"

"careful!"

Everyone fell down together.

Duke George was still holding on to the iron hook on the wall, looking down with an extremely complicated expression, "I'm sorry, Kayun, but I have no choice but to do this..."

'Crack'!

The overturned ground returned to its original position, along with the kneeling skeleton.

It has been fixed on it a long time ago.

At the same time, the broken door stone blocking the tower door slowly rose on its own. Duke George fell back to the ground, patted the dust on his sleeves, took a deep breath and walked out.

dark.

Even if I open my eyes, I can't see the darkness.

Ye Ning stood up slowly and gropingly, then spread her arms to explore the space around her.

It's okay, not too narrow.

However, the first thing to solve is the lighting problem, because the phone seems to be broken.

Fortunately, her breathing was very smooth now, which meant that her oxygen level was still not low, but she needed to find a boundary first before she could implement her next plan.

then--

'Snapped'!

Ye Ning snapped her fingers vigorously and listened carefully to the range effect of the sound reverberating and refracting here.

Soon, the sound faded into inaudibility.

And Ye Ning has also come to the conclusion that the space she is currently in is about thirty to fifty square meters, which is not too small, and it is only a few steps away from the 'border'!

The next moment, she moved to the side and really touched the slightly wet stone wall.

It’s uneven, but just right!

The butterfly knife was quickly unsheathed, and Ye Ning jumped up suddenly and slashed hard towards the stone wall!

'Stab, stab, stab'!

Dazzling sparks erupted from the tip of the knife all the way down, and Ye Ning handed over the shirt and jacket that she had already taken off in time to catch the light like broken stars!

Perfectly lit.

However, Ye Ning knew very well that the flame would not last long with just a shirt, so she had to take the opportunity to find something more resistant to burning.

Of course, it would be better if there are torches around.

Putting the shirt on the ground to burn, Ye Ning took advantage of the light and quickly walked towards the limit of visibility, only to find an abandoned candlestick!

And it also has a candle head that is shorter than your little finger!

I just don’t know if it can still be lit.

Ye Ning quickly picked up the candlestick and returned it to the shirt, and rushed to save the source of the extinguished fire before it went out.

"call……"

After taking a long breath, Ye Ning carefully picked up the candlestick and left quickly.

She wasn't sure how long this candle would last, so she had to quickly find her parents and figure out how to get back to the ground.

Because she had already determined her position when she tested it with her finger snaps.

There are several winding cave entrances.

And through these holes, you can definitely find your parents where they are currently, although... she can't figure out why they were all separated after falling.

Probably, it was also Duke George’s trick.

But walking and walking——
