Chapter 152: Twenty-word mantra

"Could it be that there are some hints left in these calligraphy and paintings?"

Judging from the content of these calligraphy and paintings alone, there is no text worthy of scrutiny. However, Qin Yi also watched some spy movies in his previous life.

Hide the beginning and end of the text, and hide the meaning to be expressed in the text according to certain rules.

This inspiration flashed through Qin Yi's heart, but it rekindled his desire to explore.

For a while, Qin Yi began to search carefully among the calligraphy and paintings.

Xia Ji has always maintained a tacit understanding with Qin Yi. When Qin Yi refused to leave, she was determined not to leave the first floor.

Seeing Qin Yi studying the calligraphy and paintings seriously at this moment, Xia Ji frowned slightly.

Although Xia Ji didn't want to admit it, her every move at the moment was more or less influenced by Qin Yi.

This kid from Qingluo Kingdom's Yin Yang Academy was no better than the geniuses of the Seven Kingdoms in the Daoji realm in terms of strength, and he was even more unknown in terms of background.

But it was this guy who almost made her, a saint of the Green Lotus Sect, lose all her previous efforts.

Starting from the failure of the first pursuit, Xia Ji's overall combat plan was almost destroyed step by step by Qin Yi.

The most annoying thing is that I have been unable to do anything about him.

Seeing him studying those calligraphy and paintings at this moment, Xia Ji couldn't help but feel that maybe this Qin Yi could find some clues from the calligraphy and painting?

"Let's see what this guy can comprehend?"

Xia Ji actually studied those calligraphy and paintings, but no matter how much she studied, she still couldn't get a clue.

She was actually slightly anxious in her heart.

Because she knew that those at the back would soon come in.

When arriving at the Anran Palace, whether they are fellow disciples of the Green Lotus Sect or geniuses from the Seven Kingdoms who have taken the Lianxin Xiaoyao Pill, they will probably become potential opponents.

Facing this level of inherited secret realm, it is definitely a question whether she, as a saint, can hold it down.

Therefore, she was full of contradictions deep in her heart at the moment. Since she couldn't find any clues on the first floor, she instinctively felt that she should go to the second floor. Maybe the real benefits would be on the second and third floors. What about layers?

However, I saw Qin Yi always stopping on the first floor. Xia Ji, who had been firm in her decision, was wavering in her heart again.

Judging from her several experiences with Qin Yi, although this guy is not old, he is very independent and targeted in his actions.

There must be a reason why he chose not to go to the second floor.

As for Xia Ji, she just wanted to see Qin Yi's reasons.

Qin Yi was completely immersed in perception at this moment.

He is constantly combining some keywords in each calligraphy and painting, trying to find patterns.

Suddenly, his inspiration struck and he seemed to have found a little pattern.

The first character in the first calligraphy and painting is the word "no".

The second character in the second calligraphy and painting is the character "在".

The third word in the third painting...

There are ten calligraphy and paintings in total. According to their order, take the character in the corresponding order.

Put together, there are ten words - don't take it from the straight, but seek it from the song.

These ten words made Qin Yi's eyes suddenly light up.

These ten words of reminder are not very clear, but they have revealed the true meaning. This means that the key treasures on the first level are not the kind that can be distinguished at a glance.

It is about slowly gaining insights through the twists and turns of exploration.

Qin Yi suddenly became energetic. He believed that since the calligraphy and painting gave a hint, he would definitely not only give such ten words.

Maybe there are other tips.

With this rule, the next step will be much easier.

Soon, Qin Yi went through the arrangement of the ten paintings and carefully considered each word from each calligraphy and painting, and he found more clues.

The penultimate word in the tenth painting is the word "half".

The penultimate word in the ninth painting is the word "true".

Following this pattern, Qin Yi quickly found ten other words from the ten paintings.

"Half truth and half falsehood, four cups of gloomy tea."

When Qin Yi saw these ten words, he chanted in his heart and immediately understood.

Then, Qin Yi studied these calligraphy and paintings seriously, but no matter how he studied, he found no new discoveries.

"Could it be that the so-called benefits of this first level are the four cups of tea?"

Qin Yi even doubted whether his discovery was a coincidence, or whether he had gained insight into the truth?

If this place is really three thousand years old, then these four cups of tea were brewed three thousand years ago. God knows what will happen if you eat them after being stored for three thousand years.

However, Qin Yi thought again, this place has a history of three thousand years, but it is spotless, which means that three thousand years may be just a blink of an eye here.

Qin Yi pretended to leave the calligraphy and paintings inadvertently.

Xia Ji had been observing Qin Yi coldly. After seeing him thoughtful, she obviously discovered something but pretended as if nothing had happened.

Xia Ji couldn't help but smile lightly: "Boy Qin, have you discovered anything?"

Qin Yi looked at Xia Ji with interest: "Little girl, you are not older than me, so why are you neither older nor younger? Besides, given the grudge between you and me, even if I find something, will I tell you?"

Xia Ji was not angry at all. She sat down on a chair and rested her bare, white feet on another chair.

"I, this girl, can be more generous and wipe out all the previous grievances. After entering this palace, every move is a matter of life and death. Don't you want to have one more ally but one more enemy?"

Qin Yi chuckled: "Ally? Is she the kind of ally that I let her go, but she repays her with kindness?"

Xia Ji was a little angry: "Are you still a man? We were each our own masters before, and our positions were different. If I yell at you to kill you, it is no choice."

"It's as if we are not each our own master now." Qin Yi sneered.

"When you enter this gloomy palace, I only represent myself." Xia Ji's tone changed from the strong one before, and became a little less indifferent, and a little more truthful that Qin Yi had not noticed before.

Qin Yi was slightly surprised. Previously, in his impression, this saint was a ruthless character at a young age, even a little unreasonable.

"I don't want to talk nonsense. As you have seen before, four people are allowed to enter on the first floor. In addition to you and me, there will definitely be two more people entering. No matter who comes in, it will seriously threaten you and me. safety."

Xia Ji's tone revealed rare sincerity.

Qin Yi was startled: "No matter who comes in, they are either your fellow disciples or puppets controlled by you. Can they still threaten you?"

Between Xia Ji's brows, there seemed to be a layer of worry shrouding her.

It made her look a little more charming.

"Hmph, the inheritance of Anran Palace is so miraculous, it is enough to turn fellow disciples into enemies and make the puppets turn against the master."

Xia Ji's tone was dull.
