C97 The Secret Mechanism

After Ao Guang left, Lee Xiang hurriedly stood up. First, he checked the walls of his study. He knocked on every inch of the room with his hand. After confirming that there was no gap, he finally moved the bookshelf behind the chair away with great effort. When he lightly knocked on the wall with one hand, He found that it was indeed a little different from other places, and the sound was obviously a little echoes. Obviously, it was empty inside.

Lee Xiang carefully looked at the wall. It was no different from all the other walls. They were all made of stone. They also exuded an ancient aura as they inspected every gap. Lee Xiang did not find anything suspicious. He even pushed it with his hand. However, it did not move at all. This result made Lee Xiang very depressed, because when he knocked on the wall carefully, He discovered that this gap was just as big as a person's area. The other places were basically solid. However, this was the only place that had a small gap. This was absolutely unreasonable. Instinct told him that there was definitely some secret inside. It was just that he had yet to find the trick.

Once again, he focused his attention on the wall. Perhaps it was because there was a bookshelf blocking his view and he did not take frequent care of it. Therefore, although this wall looked no different from the other walls, when Lee Xiang's finger touched the wall, some dust immediately fell down. However, after Lee Xiang finished cleaning the dust, He didn't just look at it, he stretched out both hands at the same time. He started checking inch by inch. And every time he touched a place, he would press hard on it, hoping that there would be something similar to a secret passage.

But the result still made him very disappointed! This couldn't help but make him a little disappointed. If he really couldn't do it, he could only find a tool to pry him open. His eyes swept over the wall. Finally, just as he was about to give up looking for tools, The light from the corner of his eye fell on a small square wall in the middle of the wall. Lee Xiang was slightly stunned. His heart moved at the same time.

He realized that he had overlooked a very fatal problem.

All along, he had been paying attention to whether the wall had loosened or some other problem, but he had overlooked the shape of the stone on the wall.

One thing to note was that the walls here were formed from stones with rules. Most of them were rectangular stones, and only at the corners would they be square. This was completely the requirement of the structure. At this moment, the wall that Lee Xiang saw was also mainly rectangular stones. But strangely, the one in the middle was actually square shaped.

This was a bit unusual. If it was really at the corner, he definitely wouldn't think too much about it. But in this place, it was obviously a reminder.

However, just now, he had also carefully examined this stone. There were no signs of loosening inside. Besides its shape being different, there was nothing else about it, be it color or anything else. Then what was the problem?

Lee Xiang once again reached out his hand to the stone. He did not press it hard, but instead gently stroked it with his hand. He then placed it on another stone and tried to feel if there was any difference between them.

This time, it was obvious that he felt the same thing.

First of all, it was obviously much more delicate and smooth than other stones. It even gave Lee Xiang the feeling that it was not a stone at all.

Second, Lee Xiang felt that after touching this stone for a long time, He didn't know whether it was an illusion or reality. He slowly felt that the stone seemed to have some kind of temperature, and then he realized that it was probably the effect of rubbing and electricity. But when he touched the other rectangular stones. . . It was always cold. How could this be explained?

Lee Xiang gently moved his finger to the center of the stone. He felt the temperature disappear immediately. It was replaced by the feeling of touching other stones. It was the same whether it was the feeling or the temperature.

Why did this stone have two completely different feelings when it was being touched by his finger? Could it be that the middle part of the stone was made up of some other material?

Thinking of this, Lee Xiang felt that it was highly possible. At the same time, he gently scratched it with his fingernail.

Very quickly, a small amount of dust fell off the middle part of the body. Immediately after, Lee Xiang discovered a thin and visible crack. Lee Xiang quickly scratched the middle part of the body and was pleasantly surprised.

As expected, Lee Xiang was overjoyed in his heart. There was really a crack in the wall, and the reason why he was so happy was. . . That was because the crack was actually a circular shape with rules. Its surface area should be the size of a teacup. If it was an irregular shape, Lee Xiang might be able to understand that it had been used for a long time, and that it had been used up naturally. But if it was such a standard round shape, then there was indeed an article in the middle.

If he did not guess wrong, this round core was indeed made up of another kind of material. However, because the technique was really ingenious and hid it very well, even if one looked carefully, they might not be able to discover it.

Without any hesitation, he quickly fiddled with his fingertip and the center of the square rock fell off immediately.

What appeared in front of Lee Xiang was a concave shape.

However, when Lee Xiang shifted his attention to the concave area, he was still stunned.

The concave area didn't seem to be that simple.

He noticed that inside the concave area. . . There seemed to be a hole smaller than a magic crystal ball inside, as thick as an index finger. However, it was not very deep. It should only be around the radius of a circle. And there was a slightly bigger circle around the hole that was wrapping around it. It was a bit similar to the shape of a cohesive circle. Strictly speaking, it looked more like a straw hat that Lee Xiang had worn in his previous life. However, the circle on the outside was much fainter than the one on the outside.

Why was that? Lee Xiang was very curious. Obviously, there must be some kind of secret in this place. Moreover, it seemed like there was something in this United Circle that could only be opened after it was opened. In other words, this place might be the key to open the lock, but he didn't have the key in his hand. Then what could it be?

Thinking of this result, Lee Xiang, who had been extremely excited just a moment ago, instantly felt frustrated. Without the key, even if he discovered such a secret, it would still be futile in the end.

Unwilling to give up, he looked at the United Circle inside. Lee Xiang stretched out his finger and lightly tapped it. He found that his ring finger could just reach inside. Of course, it did not have any effect.

Just as Li Jun was thinking about giving up, he suddenly felt a strange restlessness in his chest. And then the restlessness became stronger and stronger. In the end, it directly affected his own mood and gave him an inexplicable restlessness and uneasiness.

Lee Xiang was shocked. After forcing himself to calm down, his heart slightly moved. He immediately understood the source of this restlessness.

It was the Asura Ring hanging on his neck! Casually removing the Asura Ring, Lee Xiang felt a slight vibration inside.

This discovery made Lee Xiang very surprised. At the same time, he was also very surprised. It was obvious that this Asura Ring had sensed something. Or perhaps it was reminding him of something? Then what did this have to do with this Duke's Mansion? Was this Asura Ring related to him? Or was the ultimate treasure of the Dragon Clan that was sealed in this Asura Ring related to him? Also, who was the previous owner of this Duke's Mansion?

Too many questions made Lee Xiang feel dizzy for a short period of time. He thought of the dent in this brick. A part of it was the size of his finger. Lee Xiang's heart moved slightly. Without hesitation, he carefully put the Asura Ring into the brick.

As if it was a special set, the Asura Ring perfectly filled up the outer circle! There was not even the slightest gap. This discovery made Lee Xiang instantly confirm his thoughts.

At the same time he placed the Asura Ring inside, the Asura Ring finally began to tremble violently. Clearly, it had suffered some kind of stimulation. It even let out a buzzing sound. He did not know if it was excitement. Or was it fear? It was always extremely strange.

Lee Xiang stared fixedly at the wall. It was very strange. He originally thought that there would be some mechanism that would open after the Asura Ring was put in, but the result was not like this at all. Not only was there not a single mechanism that appeared, As the Asura Ring's restlessness became more and more intense, Lee Xiang immediately noticed that the entire wall was trembling. Finally, it was the entire study. It even gave people the feeling that it was about to collapse in an instant. This was definitely not a symptom of opening this place. Lee Xiang was almost certain. Because he suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a slightly deeper circle that was not filled, which meant that he was still missing something. Only after filling up these two concentric circles at the same time. . . Only then would something unexpected happen.

Without thinking, Lee Xiang hurriedly took out the Asura Ring that he was wearing. The trembling from earlier immediately disappeared, and the restlessness within the Asura Ring instantly returned to normal.

Lee Xiang let out a long sigh of relief. Now, he was basically certain that this Asura Ring had a great relationship with this place. However, it seemed that he still lacked another key in his hand. Furthermore, he had to work together with the Asura Ring. Therefore, it seemed like it was temporarily impossible for him to open the secret of this place.

Lee Xiang was now sure that the other key should also be a circular object or something similar to a crystal ball. To be honest, Lee Xiang even suspected that it was the Dragon Ball in his arms, but the Dragon Ball in his hands seemed to be slightly bigger. Most importantly, his Dragon Ball did not seem to have the same reaction as the Asura Ring. So it could basically be excluded.

After the wall was restored to its original state, Lee Xiang once again moved the bookshelf back. He needed time to think about the problem now. As for opening this place in a hurry, he couldn't open it. After all, this wasn't something he could do whatever he wanted.
