Gu Luolin raised her head proudly in the room with the painting hanging on the wall. She crossed her arms and looked at Ye Zichen and Gou Monan proudly.
She felt like she was extremely smart. Ye Zichen and Gou Monan had searched so hard for clues, yet they couldn't find anything.
She was the only one who guessed it. She really wanted to praise herself for being smart.
"What did you guess?"
Ye Zichen looked towards Gu Luolin with a surprised expression.
He knew very well that he and Gou Monan were the ones searching for clues. Gu Luolin continued to wander around the room like nothing had happened, and did not have any intention of searching for clues at all.
But now, she said that she found out what to do!
Ye Zichen did not doubt the truth of her words. Although he and Gou Monan had spent more time observing and searching, it was very possible that they had made a mistake.
"Then can I tell you!?" Gu Luolin pursed her lips and giggled. "You have to beg me. If you beg me, I might tell you. You and I …"
Gu Luolin shook her little head incessantly, looking very excited.
At that very moment, Ye Zichen suddenly covered her mouth. Gu Luolin struggled to speak, but when she saw Ye Zichen place his finger on his lips, he signaled her to be quiet.
Ta ta …
Someone else came!
It seems like it really is the time when most of the people have entered the palace. Not long after the first group of people entered the room, another group of people appeared outside the room.
Ye Zichen's heart, which had just calmed down, tensed up once again.
Ye Zichen and co. held their breaths as they pressed against the wall, then heard the people outside whisper.
"Should we go through this door?"
The voice had clearly reached the door of the room. From their voices, Ye Zichen could tell that they were not people he knew.
"Let's follow the order. If there are no surprises, we should need to go through all five doors at the same time. Let's follow the order bit by bit."
Yes!
That's right. You guys should follow the order!
Ye Zichen covered Gu Luolin's mouth with his only hand. At that moment, he could only clench his teeth, as if he was hoping that the person who said they were going to enter this room would go to the room that the person behind said.
"I have a feeling that this room is the right one, and I feel like there's someone inside."
"Stop bullshitting, how many times have you felt it on the way here? Just follow the order!"
"Alright."
As the footsteps got further and further away, the two people outside the room walked towards the room beside Ye Zichen's.
"Looks like the main force has arrived."
Ye Zichen squinted his eyes, then looked solemnly at Gu Luolin and Gou Monan.
Just a moment ago, the imperial stage being outside had actually sensed the presence of someone in the room.
"Gu Luolin!"
Gou Monan and Ye Zichen were completely clueless. Only Gu Luolin said that she knew the crux of the problem. Ye Zichen directly shouted towards Gu Luolin. His tone caused her to subconsciously think of how her uncle felt towards her when he was angry.
"What are you doing? I said you're begging me!" Gu Luolin said with some grievance.
"Stop fooling around. Didn't you hear that more and more people are coming?" When Ye Zichen saw that Gu Luolin was about to cry, he quickly changed his tone. "My lady, just tell me what you found out, alright?"
"That's more like it!"
Gu Luolin's mood improved a little. She said, "Do you still remember the doors in the palace when we came in?"
"Door? What's so special about them? "Gou Monan asked.
"There were five doors when we entered the palace, and the rooms after we entered also had five doors. Now, we have to enter a total of five rooms," Gu Luolin reached out her hand and opened the door. "The crux is this five!"
"Look at the paintings in the rooms. There are still five paintings with patterns on them!" "Then, the only thing you can think of from these five is the Dao of the Five Elements. Look at the backgrounds of these five paintings, and use the colors to determine that the Five Fortune Paintings actually correspond to the Five Elements. The blank painting left behind, if I am not wrong, should follow the order of the five paintings on the wall and place your hand on it.
Then, use the Dao of the Five Elements to solve it. "
Ye Zichen and Gou Monan looked at Gu Luolin in shock. Neither of them expected her to say something like that.
However, from her words, it seems like what she said was indeed the way to solve the problem.
Ye Zichen quickly walked in front of the paintings. Only then did he notice that the backgrounds of the five paintings were indeed different. His attention was completely attracted by the children's expressions in the last two paintings, so he subconsciously ignored that.
"Gu Luolin, you're so smart!"
Ye Zichen hugged Gu Luolin and kissed her on the cheek. He did not have any other thoughts, he was simply too happy.
"I still have to get married!" Gu Luolin wiped her face.
"But according to what Lady Gu said, we need someone who is proficient in the Dao of the Five Elements," Gou Monan said. "Ever since the Five Elements Great Emperor disappeared, the Heart of the Five Elements was destroyed. Very few people walk the Dao of the Five Elements anymore!"
"Don't you know? This person in front of us is someone who is proficient in the Dao of the Five Elements, and has already completed all four of them," Gu Luolin pointed at Ye Zichen.
"Brother Ye, you actually …"
"Don't say so much. Time is of the essence, we can't be so lucky every time. Tell the people who followed us to avoid us. What Gu Luolin said isn't impossible, we need to try."
With that, Ye Zichen let out a deep breath, then stood in front of the white paintings.
"Gu Luolin, tell me the order of using the Dao!"
"Call me Great Aunt!" Gu Luolin frowned, but still obediently looked at the five paintings. "Fire!"
Vroom.
Ye Zichen's palm instantly turned bright red, but no flames appeared. What they needed to do was to use the Dao of the Five Elements on the paintings, and not to release them.
When the palm of the fire element Daoist technique pressed on the scroll, the room suddenly emitted a crisp and clear sound.
"Brother Ye!"
Gou Monan's eyes lit up. If I'm not wrong, then that's the sound of the secret door appearing.
It seems like Gu Luolin really is the solution. Ye Zichen, who was using the Dao, also felt joy in his heart, and waited for Gu Luolin to continue.
"Wind!"
Just as Ye Zichen was changing the power of the five elements on his palm, footsteps suddenly appeared outside.
"Brother Ye, someone's here!" At that moment, Gou Monan, who was standing at the door, suddenly focused his gaze. "Focus on deciphering it. I'll guard this place. Before you decipher it, I definitely won't let anyone enter the room."
With that, Gou Monan began to construct a barrier at the door.
