After a sharp pain spread through her limbs and bones, Si Muran's furrowed brows gradually relaxed. Her tightly shut eyes suddenly opened and she was shocked to find herself in an unfamiliar and dark cave.
"Where am I?" Si Muran rubbed her swollen forehead and muttered in confusion.
The scene in her mind was still the city library where she worked. Due to the earthquake, a large area collapsed and she was hit by a falling bookshelf.
" Oh…" Suddenly, a suppressed low groan sounded from the corner of the room.
"Who is it?" Si Muran shouted in a low voice.
She tried her best to suppress the fear in her heart, and her clear black and white eyes shone brightly in the darkness.
The thick darkness made it impossible for Si Muran to see who was hiding in the corner. It was still deathly silent around her, and she could only hear her own rapid breathing and frantic heartbeat.
Faced with the fear of the unknown, even someone as bold and cautious as her could not help but feel a chill in her heart in this strange environment.
He stood up to take a look, but just as he stood up, the stone brick under his feet sank slightly, followed by a series of creaking sounds that made one's hair stand on end.
Si Muran retracted her foot abruptly. A candle in the corner lit up and instantly lit up the entire room.
At the same time, she saw the person in the corner.
It was a handsome man in a white robe. He sat upright like a pine tree, his eyes slightly closed, his chin tensed, and he carried a dignity that could not be ignored.
The man's entire body exuded a cold aura, which made Si Muran's fear increase. She shouted at the man,""Who are you?"
The man was still sitting in the corner without moving an inch. If it wasn't for the slight rise and fall of his chest, she would have thought that he was a statue or a dead man.
Si Muran waited for a moment, but the man ignored her.
She took a deep breath and endured the trembling of her body. She gritted her teeth and walked over. She reached out to check his breathing, but her slender wrist was suddenly grabbed tightly by a large hand with well-defined joints.
The force was so strong that it almost broke Si Muran's wrist.
Si Muran was in pain. She was angry and annoyed at the man, but she couldn't break free. Her eyebrows were raised and her clear eyes glared at him in anger.
The man slowly raised his head and stared at Si Muran with his cold eyes filled with killing intent. He said coldly,""There are many traps here. If you want to save your life, be quiet.”
Upon hearing this, Si Muran immediately looked around warily. This stone house was indeed strange. She frowned and said in a low voice,""What exactly is this place?"
Seeing Si Muran's furrowed brows and nervous expression, the man's fickle lips curled up slightly. The coldness in his eyes lessened slightly, but there was a hint of mockery in them. He said in a deep voice,""If you don't even know where this is, how did you get in?”
Si Muran frowned in confusion, trying hard to recall the scene of the collapse.
However, what followed was indeed a severe headache. She looked in pain and her body swayed slightly, almost falling to the ground. Some memories that did not belong to her gradually appeared in her mind.
Si Muran was Minister Si's unfavored concubine daughter. When she was young, her mother passed away and she was bullied in the residence. A few days ago, she went to the temple to offer incense, but on the way, she was kidnapped by a few men in black. She was frightened to death by all kinds of torture.
As a result, Si Muran, who came from the modern era and had the same name, took over the body.
Just now, he was wondering if he had survived the earthquake by luck, but he did not expect to travel to another unfamiliar place. However, he should be glad that he was still alive!
Pei Chenshuo looked at Si Muran. What a strange woman.
A second ago, her face was still as pale as paper, and there was a bitter smile on her lips. However, in the next second, her expression was one of relief and joy.
His eyes flashed with some doubt. Just as he was about to ask something, he heard a creaking sound from under the floor again, and his expression changed drastically.
He pulled the tottering Si Muran into his arms.
In the face of danger, the man's slender eyes did not show any panic. Instead, he had a calm expression. He said in a deep voice,"The floor you stepped on triggered the mechanism of the stone house. It will explode in half a cup of tea's time. I want you to focus on finding the mechanism to open the stone house!”
Upon hearing that the stone house was so dangerous, Si Muran endured her headache and hurriedly got up to look around the room.
What surprised her was that as the memory fragments in her mind fused, she discovered that there was an encyclopedia in her mind that recorded all kinds of modern knowledge. This inconspicuous book was obviously from the library before she transmigrated.
Si Muran didn't have time to think about it carefully. She closed her eyes and pulled out some information about ancient mechanisms.
A moment later, she suddenly opened her eyes. Her sharp gaze stopped at the southwest corner of the stone house. When she got closer, she found that a large number of numbers were engraved on the stone bricks in the corner, arranged in a certain pattern.
"Come and take a look. Is this the mechanism that can open the stone room?”Si Muran shouted excitedly at the man.
Pei Chenshuo walked over and frowned when he saw the numbers on the brick. These numbers seemed unrelated, but after careful study, he found that they were indeed echoing each other.
If he was given some time, he was confident that he could solve it, but time was of the essence…#Cancel Review All: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 55PM #
