"Are you kidding me? Don't tell me it's an empty chest in the end? "Zhou Wen said gloomily.
An Sheng laughed. "As expected of Young Master Wen. Overseer and I have opened six treasure chests, but none of them are as interesting as this one."
"This really has nothing to do with me. You guys picked away all the good treasure chests. The remaining treasure chests are all so strange," Zhou Wen said gloomily.
"Quick, open it and take a look. I'm really looking forward to knowing what's inside," An Sheng urged.
Zhou Wen had no choice but to continue opening the treasure chests inside. The treasure chests came one after another, and Zhou Wen had opened at least twenty layers. The treasure chest also changed from a huge chest to a palm-sized chest.
Zhou Wen gave it a try, hoping to take out the treasure chest. Although the treasure chest was very small, it didn't budge no matter how hard Zhou Wen tried.
Zhou Wen had no choice but to continue opening the chests. One layer after another, the treasure chest had already become the size of a finger. There was even a treasure chest inside.
I'm very certain now that the owner of the maze is definitely playing with us. There's definitely nothing in the final treasure chest. Zhou Wen felt that he had definitely been fooled.
"At this stage, even if it's empty, we have to open the last chest," An Sheng encouraged.
Zhou Wen continued opening the treasure chest without a word. The treasure chest went from the size of a finger to the size of a fingernail after opening layer by layer.
F * ck, why is there more? I don't believe it. Zhou Wen continued opening a few more layers. The size of the treasure chest was already the size of a ring's surface.
Just as Zhou Wen was about to open it again, he realized that the squarish stone treasure chest that resembled a ring's surface was locked. Although the keyhole was very small, he could tell that it was a lock.
Isn't this a scam? I've already opened it up to this point, but it's telling me that I need a key … Zhou Wen wished he could smash the treasure chest.
However, he didn't know if these treasure chests were protected by nomological powers. Even Mythical powers would find it difficult to damage them.
"Could this treasure chest itself be the prize in this treasure chest?" An Sheng said as he looked at the treasure chest.
"It can't be?" Zhou Wen was slightly taken aback as he reached out to grab the tiny treasure chest and lift it up. After opening so many treasure chests, they remained motionless. This time, he had picked out the tiny treasure chest.
He can actually take it out! Zhou Wen immediately realized that the fellow who placed the treasure chest must have done it on purpose.
Zhou Wen took a careful look and didn't find a way to open the treasure chest. He handed it to An Sheng, who returned it to Zhou Wen. "The structure of this keyhole is somewhat different from our human locks. It might require a special key to open it. Young Master Wen, put it away first. Think of a way to open it after we leave."
Zhou Wen had no choice but to put away the tiny treasure chest. With such a tiny treasure chest, it was very likely that there was nothing inside. Even if there was something, what could such a tiny treasure chest contain?
After opening two treasure chests in a row, Zhou Wen began to miss Wang Lu. If he could get her to help him open the treasure chests, he definitely wouldn't be so unlucky to get such a strange item.
The two of them set off again. Due to the precedent, An Sheng was afraid that this tiny treasure chest would trigger an anomaly in the maze, so he walked even more carefully.
In the end, nothing unexpected happened. Just like before, as long as they waited for the hourglass's safe period, they could successfully pass through the stone house.
Finally, Zhou Wen and An Sheng arrived at the location of the third treasure chest. Zhou Wen stood in front of the treasure chest, pressed his palms together, and bowed in all directions. "Gods, please bless me. I don't seek to get rich overnight. I just want to open something normal. Any Mythical Companion Beast will do. I'm really not picky …"
As he prayed, Zhou Wen even summoned the baby tiger, hoping to increase his luck.
An Sheng held back his laughter when he heard Zhou Wen mumble. He said in all seriousness, "Young Master, riches and honor are destined by the heavens. Quickly open it."
Zhou Wen gritted his teeth and opened the lid.
"It's indeed normal …" An Sheng looked into the chest and immediately laughed. This was because the chest was empty. There was nothing inside.
"That's it?" Zhou Wen was somewhat depressed.
"Why don't I take you to find another chest? What if you are born extraordinary and can open the fourth chest? "An Sheng said.
"Don't trouble yourself. Let's go back," Zhou Wen said with a shake of his head.
He decided that he would never open any darn chests or anything else that relied on luck in the future unless he could come with Wang Lu.
An Sheng led Zhou Wen out. It was impossible to return the way they came because the stone house's location was constantly changing. Therefore, they could only deduce a new path back.
Thankfully, nothing happened on the way back. The two of them successfully exited the maze.
An Sheng used a metal plate to seal the well and covered it with soil to disguise it. If it wasn't a coincidence, it would be difficult to discover the entrance to the maze.
However, Zhou Wen realized that the crystal hourglass in his hand seemed to freeze. The sand inside was still flowing when it froze. It looked like time had stopped moving. It was extremely magical.
"Young Master Wen, it's not like you didn't gain anything at all. Even if the small treasure chest is empty, this crystal hourglass is rather magical. Perhaps it's really a treasure," An Sheng consoled.
Zhou Wen wasn't in the mood to say anything. He put away the crystal hourglass and the mini treasure chest and planned on thinking of a way to open the treasure chest.
The two of them returned to Luoyang and realized that there were very few people on the streets. Soon, they realized that most people were watching the livestream.
Someone actually challenged Primordial Sword Immortal again. It's no wonder so many people are watching the livestream. Zhou Wen used Truth Listener to search and discovered the problem.
"That's not surprising. There aren't many days left in the three-month deadline. There must be someone who can't hold it in. Let's see who's challenging Primordial Sword Immortal." An Sheng took out his phone and switched on the livestream, only to be slightly surprised.
In the arena, Primordial Sword Immortal had already revealed his sword immortal body. The sword immortal stood in the arena with a stone sword in hand, but he didn't see the challenger.
Suddenly, the sword immortal's head seemed to suffer a heavy blow as his body flew out.
"What was that?" Zhou Wen and An Sheng didn't see what had happened.
