Starting My Cultivation With Time Management

Chapter 549 The end of the secret passage, the interlayer of the wall

In the next few days, Long Long and Long Hu were carefully exploring the secret passage.

The Dragon Clan still didn't send anyone to visit, or they might have sent people over, but they were blocked by the Qilin Clan.

In the past, the two of them might have become anxious, but after discovering the secret passage, they feel that this kind of undisturbed confinement life is not bad—at least there is no need to worry about someone breaking in suddenly, only to find that the two of them are no longer there in the room.

According to the exploration of the past few days, the secret passage is obviously a huge and complex network structure, like a hidden and unknown parasite, lurking in every dark corner of the Shenlong Tower, intertwined, quietly watching.

Moreover, judging from the structure of these secret passages communicating with the outside world, it is obvious that they are specially designed for eavesdropping.

It is conceivable that if there is an intelligence team of more than 30 people stationed in this secret channel network, then everything that happens in the entire Shenlong Tower will be exposed in front of their eyes.

In the era of Emperor Yinglong, the Dragon Pagoda was the residence, office and meeting place of the great nobles and the Senate, so Long Long guessed that there was a high probability that Emperor Yinglong built it without telling other demon clans, the purpose was to better collect information .

Now the era of Jiaolong has passed, and the court cabinet of Emperor Qilin has moved into the Dragon Tower, but this secret passage has been sealed up with the departure of the Jiaolong clan, so that there is no trace of human activities at all.

No, someone has been here before. Kunlun Mirror said suddenly, Although the dust along the road has been cleaned and disguised, it still cannot be hidden from my scan - the last time the other party came was four to seven days ago.

Really? Long Long said cautiously, Jing, for the next exploration, you remember to keep scanning the surrounding movement at all times. If you notice someone passing through the distant passage, remember to notify me immediately.

Understood. Kunlun Mirror answered seriously.

After all, although the Qilin clan will guarantee the safety of Longlong, Longhu and Longhu, the identity of the strange visitor in the secret passage and his attitude towards the Canglong clan are completely unknown and huge risks.

He and Longhu continued to climb up the secret passage, calculated the height secretly, and Long Long realized that he was in the middle of the Shenlong Tower.

This floor has the largest library in the entire Eastern Imperial Realm, called Longyuan Pavilion. It was originally the place where the Jiaolong clan collected books. There are included.

Monster monks from all over the Eastern Emperor's Realm, who are interested in delving into heresy, will come to the Longyuan Pavilion of the Dragon Pagoda to study. If one can graduate from it, it is enough to serve as guest minister in any Yaozu.

In addition, more than 60% of the cultivation resources such as magic tools and elixir in the Eastern Emperor's Realm are produced by Yaozu bachelors who graduated from Longyuan Pavilion, so this place can be regarded as the Penglai Yuqing Temple of the Yaozu, with an academic atmosphere. very thick.

Probably because there are people in Longyuan Pavilion all the year round, the secret passage here is not only narrow and hidden, but also close to the load-bearing columns in the hall, and there are no designed peepholes or sound-permeable panels around.

Long Long had to lean his ears against the wall to vaguely hear the conversation outside:

We need to hurry up on the blood test project. The higher-ups have asked about it several times. The deadline is at the end of this month.

You don't want the funding of the project team to be eliminated, do you? The dean said that one of the team with the slowest progress will be fired this month. Prepare yourself mentally.

Hearing that, Long Long really felt sorry for him. This is the last elimination system for academics. Has the evil capitalism penetrated into the Eastern Emperor's Realm?

Long Long. Long Hu whispered beside him, Why did you want to be fired?

This... Long Long thought for a moment, then explained to Longhu.

Although Longyuan Pavilion is a neutral academic institution in name, since it is located in the imperial capital, it must be controlled and influenced by the Qilin clan.

In fact, it is said that more than 70% of the funds for Longyuan Pavilion are provided by the Qilin family.

Correspondingly, if the Qilin family has any development needs, Wenyuan Pavilion must also take over and complete it as soon as possible, otherwise it may affect the subsequent funds.

Deliberately eliminating a member with the worst performance is to let everyone compete spontaneously and work overtime for research.

Longhu smacked his tongue when he heard that. In her opinion, monks are the root of everything. Isn't it an act of sacrificing the basics and chasing the last to eliminate the monks for some project?

Long Long didn't intend to explain to her what consumables were, the little fox hadn't reached the point where she needed to learn Wang Xin.

The two continued to climb the ladder until they entered the upper range of the Dragon Tower.

The air here is obviously fresher than the middle and bottom, and the vents of the tunnel network are obviously nearby.

The dragon fox scrambled in the direction of the air flow, and sure enough, at the end of a certain passage, it found the so-called ventilation duct and the side hole opened on the outer wall of the Shenlong Tower.

Due to the ban on flying in the whole area of ​​the imperial capital, this hole cannot be overlooked from above, and there are just a few protruding eaves to block it, which can be said to be extremely delicately designed.

The opening of the hole is in the shape of a trumpet, and the wind speed at this height is extremely fast, so a lot of fresh air is poured in from the opening of the horn every moment.

What's even more amazing is that these air currents rush and collide in the passage without making any wind noise.

Long Long carefully studied the inner wall of the ventilation duct, thinking, isn't this the Tesla valve structure? I thought it was some formation.

The two left the ventilation duct and continued to climb up the vertical corridor.

If the height is calculated correctly, the end of the secret road network at the highest level should be the residence leading to the royal family.

Thinking of this, Long Long also frowned.

If the secret way network also guarantees the monitoring of the royal family, it can be said to be invulnerable. If my father-in-law hadn't rashly expeditioned to the human world and failed miserably, maybe he could really rule in the Eastern Emperor's Realm for thousands of generations!

The two finally climbed to the end and came to a secret room.

This place is not so much a secret room as it is a narrow interlayer between the walls. The back of his head is against the wall, and his nose is almost touching the front wall.

Longhu was a little uncomfortable being squeezed, and was about to speak, when suddenly Long Long quickly gestured to her with his eyes.

Then, a rough, angry, disgusted hoarse voice sounded outside:

You bitch!

Longhu held her breath subconsciously for an instant, because she heard heavy footsteps, and she was stepping into the bedroom from outside the door.

Qi Weihuan, the patriarch of the Qilin clan and the king of all monsters.

Long Long stretched out his hand quietly, and gently held Longhu's little hand, signaling her not to act rashly.

The sound insulation effect of the mezzanine in the bedroom wall is unknown, but most of the monsters have keen hearing, especially those with high cultivation bases, it would be bad if he heard the sound of climbing the ladder.

The safest way, of course, is to stay here quietly, motionless, hold your breath, and make sure not to make any noise.

After the emperor fell asleep or left, the two cheered up and quietly returned the same way.

Long Long was thinking nervously and quickly, but he heard the sound of a woman sobbing from outside.

If the guess is correct, this should be the marriage partner of Qi Weihuan and the Baihu clan, the queen named Lu Ya.
