Lou's mansion is very guarded, breaking in from the outside must save trouble inside, so Huo Jiulin didn't ask to leave, and Lou Yuzhi didn't urge him at all.

Su Lubai came over in the afternoon, and Huo Jiulin asked him to go out to help prepare some tools and night clothes to be used. In the dead of night, he changed into night clothes to avoid the guards and went to the treasure building .

The area around the treasure building is still empty, there are no guards, and it looks like there are candles burning inside, which is very bright.

He followed the route he took during the day and crossed the gravel road to the entrance of the Zangbao Building. Although Lou Yuzhi said that there is no trap to enter the gate, Die Lingcao is on the sixth floor, and there will definitely be many traps on the fifth floor.

Huo Jiulin walked around the Treasure Building. There is a string of bells hanging on the eaves of each floor of this building. The backside is a bamboo forest. It is probably not easy to be found. He took out the prepared claws The rope swayed a few times in the hand and then threw it upwards. It successfully avoided the bell and hung on the eaves of the third floor.

By analogy, we soon reached the sixth floor, but Huo Jiulin found that there were no windows at all on the sixth floor.

So there was no way to get in, so I had to go up to another floor, opened the window beside the window on the seventh floor, threw a stone in, and turned the window in when there was no mechanism.

After entering, I realized that the reason why it was so bright inside was not because candles were lit, but because there were luminous pearls placed in every corner. The seventh floor was empty, only a few luminous pearls for lighting.

He sneered, probably in the eyes of Lou Wancheng, this Ye Mingzhu was not considered a treasure, at best it was just a candle. He carefully observed the surroundings and the roof, but he didn't see any place where a mechanism could be placed.

He used the method of throwing stones to find the way, and slowly moved to the stairs. Just about to go down, he heard a very slight sound. Huo Jiulin turned around to avoid it, and at the same time rushed to a gust of wind.

He waited for a while but found nothing, and walked over cautiously, always feeling that something seemed wrong, something was clearly passing by just now, but he couldn't see it?

Recalling the seat I was standing just now, I squatted nearby and checked the ground carefully, only to find that there seemed to be dozens of silver needles stuck on the floor, thinner than embroidery needles, so I couldn't find it unless I looked carefully.

"It's cruel enough to die from poison without knowing how you died."

He couldn't help exhaling, avoiding those silver needles and walking down the stairs, as Lou Yu said, the smell of medicine came to his nostrils as soon as he reached the sixth floor.

Like the seventh floor, it is also illuminated by night pearls, and the columns inside can be seen clearly. There are lattice-shaped wooden shelves all around, and there is a brocade box in each grid, at least one or two hundred. Looking for them one by one, it is estimated that they will have to find dawn.

There is a wooden table in the middle, with three brocade boxes on it, and a brocade box hanging in the middle of the air.

Since there are only three Dilingweeds in the world, they must be very precious. Will they be kept alone?

Huo Jiulin walked towards the wooden table in the middle, but when he was about to approach, some darts were suddenly shot from the wooden shelves on the left and right. He stepped on the wooden table and turned over to avoid it, and grabbed the box in the middle.

As soon as his feet landed, the wooden board under his feet opened, and he fell down without warning. In a panic, he ran away with the nine-claw hook in his hand, and clasped it on the wooden table leg before barely hanging on.

I feel like I'm hanging in mid-air. Logically speaking, it should be between the sixth floor and the fifth floor, but the problem is that it's pitch black. Is there no night pearl on the fifth floor?

"Hs...hs..."

Suddenly there was a hissing sound from below, Huo Jiulin felt his scalp tingling, if he guessed correctly, there were probably snakes all over the place, but it is deep winter now, how did they prevent the snakes from hibernating?

He luckily followed the rope back to the ground on the sixth floor. Fortunately, he brought a hook and claw rope, otherwise he would have become a poisonous snake's meal by now.

He weighed the brocade box in his hand, and then remembered that he didn't know what Die Lingcao looked like, since it was called Die Lingcao, it should be a grass, right?

Opening the brocade box, there was nothing inside, he looked at it carefully with some surprise, it was actually empty?Looking at the other boxes, are they all empty?

With so many organs set up, there is no reason for them to be empty. He walked over and picked up the other two, opened them and looked at them, and found that they were all empty. He couldn't help but frown. Open all the hundreds of boxes to see?

Feeling a little warm on the shoulder, raised his hand to touch the blood in his hand, probably because he just fell down and subconsciously pulled the rope with both hands, and the wound opened due to excessive force.

He sniffed the box, and it seemed to smell like some herbs. Could it be that he took it away temporarily?

The only one who could suspect that he would come to steal was Lou Yuzhi, but he didn't seem like the kind of person who would do such a thing.

If he really wants to deal with him, don't say anything during the day, he probably won't even be able to enter this building, and even if he does, he will start looking for it from the first floor.

"Is there something weird about this box?"

Fortunately, the three boxes were very small, so he put them all in his arms, then looked up at the box hanging above his head in mid-air, not knowing what was inside.

He took out a copper coin from his bosom, threw it towards the rope on the brocade box, the rope was cut, but there were six of them, and the box only moved a little when one was broken.

Wanting to continue using copper coins, because the orientation is different, so he was going to change the direction, but just moved a step to the left when he felt the floor he was stepping on move. Before he could catch his breath, he heard the sound of bells ringing from the whole building. He was startled. It turned out that the bells hanging outside were touched from the inside.

Feeling the sound of footsteps around, probably the guards in the mansion rushed over when they heard the sound, Huo Jiulin frowned and looked at the box hanging on it, maybe he didn't have time to take it.

Turning around to leave from the window, a spray of powder sprayed out as soon as he touched the window. He leaned back and retreated. There was wind behind him. Before he could look back, he lay on the ground, and a few short arrows flew from above, sitting on the wooden frame in front of him. .

The wooden frame started to move in an instant, and the brocade boxes on the wooden frame disappeared for a while, and then a thousand arrows were fired, too many to avoid all of them, an arrow was shot in the calf, and one staggered and almost fell back to the snake cave inside.

The already weak body began to be unable to hold on. The arrow on the calf must be poisonous. Now the whole leg has no strength. Footsteps can be heard on the stairs. Seeing that the guard is about to arrive, Huo Jiulin can only move his body. Dodged behind a cabinet in the corner.

"Let me close the organ first."

It was actually Lou Wancheng's voice, Huo Jiulin looked through the gap in the cabinet, and saw a lot of guards behind Lou Wancheng, there should be quite a few guards standing down the stairs.

"Master, the three brocade boxes on the middle table are missing."

"Those three are empty. If they are gone, they will disappear, but it seems that someone has broken in. There is no window. They must still be here. Search for me!"

Huo Jiulin was stunned, and looked at the windows not far away, and then remembered that there were no windows on the sixth floor from the outside, so these windows are all fake?Just a trick to attract people?

The room was not very big, so many people would be found within a short time. When Huo Jiulin was thinking about how to rush out, Lou Wancheng suddenly summoned two guards and pointed to the direction where Huo Jiulin was hiding.

"Go and see behind the cabinet over there, I don't believe he can disappear out of thin air!"

Huo Jiulin watched the two guards slowly approaching, he took out two copper coins from his pocket, he had to restrain them first, and then fight out.

It's just that I don't know how long this body can last. It seems that I might have to break here tonight. If I didn't get the Dilingcao, I don't know what will happen to Wu Ye.

Without time to think about it, Huo Jiulin used his strength, but before he threw the copper coin, he heard a noise next to him. Everyone's attention was attracted, and they all looked over there vigilantly.

"Don't hide, come out, do you think my treasure house is made of paper? It's a bit of a skill for you to come in, but once you're in, don't even think about getting out!"

Everyone stared closely at the cabinet over there. The first thing they saw was the white shoes, and they looked up slowly. After seeing clearly the appearance of the person who came out, everyone was stunned.

"Master?"

"Yuzhi? Why are you here?"

Lou Wancheng didn't expect to see his own son here, he thought some kind of thief had come in, Lou Yu walked in front of Lou Wancheng calmly.

"father……"

"You don't sleep in the middle of the night, what are you doing here? You touched the ringing just now?"

"Yes."

"Why didn't you tell me that you were coming to the Treasure Tower to get something? If I accompany you, this kind of thing won't happen. Do you know that the institutions here are very dangerous?"

"Father, didn't you allow me to go up to the sixth floor?"

"Then you came secretly?"

"I want to come and get some medicinal materials back to the medical center. Recently, there is a patient who is very difficult to treat and is missing a few more precious medicinal materials."

"Then you can tell me directly."

"I see that Dad is usually very nervous on the sixth floor, and I'm afraid you won't like it."

"You are my son, just here to get some medicinal materials. How could I disagree? I will find you any medicinal materials you want."

Lou Yuzhi nodded yes, and then said the names of the two medicines. Lou Wancheng restored the lattice wooden frame to its original shape and handed him two boxes.

"By the way, the three boxes in the middle are empty, I put them on purpose, you can put them back."

"I'm sorry, Dad, those three boxes fell into the snake den just now."

"That's it, it's okay, I'll bring three more later, let's go back, are you not injured?"

"No."

"Remember to tell me what you want to bring next time. Don't come here by yourself. The mechanism here is very dangerous. Dad is for your own good."

"it is good……"

They all left after a while, and Huo Jiulin behind the cabinet breathed a sigh of relief, but then thought about it, although he escaped, but he didn't find Dilingcao, how would he go to see Wuye later?

More importantly, does it mean that Shen Yiqing still has to use his own method if he didn't get the Dilingcao?I always feel that no matter what, I must get it tonight!
