Chapter 257 Loyal Dog

Su Wuli walked back from the bookshelf. "I found the key."

As soon as he finished speaking, several people looked over.

"Where did you find it?" Sun Yanbai asked.

Su Wuli told them the location.

Several veteran players were surprised by this and marveled at Su Wuli's search capabilities.

Soon, Lin Luchi found the jigsaw puzzle.

The wooden puzzle was cut into more than a dozen irregular pieces and neatly stacked in a mahogany box.

Chen Kai poured out the puzzle pieces and laid them out one by one on the table.

The fragments were of various shapes, some with a small notch on the edge, as if they had been deliberately cut out.

He arranged several pieces but found he couldn't put them together.

Lin Luchi tried to piece together a few pieces, but couldn't.

Liu Yanfei is most skilled at these kinds of games.

Everyone placed their hopes on her.

She tried each piece of the fragment one by one, and finally pieced together half a face, but the part above the eyes still didn't match.

Wen Yan stepped aside, crossed her arms, looked at the shards on the table, and suddenly blurted out a sentence.

"Is this spelling out the name of a Bodhisattva?"

Nobody paid any attention to her.

She couldn't help but repeat herself, "I said this spells out the name of a Bodhisattva."

Chen didn't even look up. "The Bodhisattva has bumps on his face, and this is the general; he has a scar on his forehead."

Wen Yan pursed her lips and didn't reply.

Su Wuli looked at the fragments on the table and tried to handle them.

too difficult.

She turned around and pushed the puzzle piece directly in front of Yu Chen, then looked at him with a blank expression.

He paid no attention to the astonished looks of others.

Yu Chen looked down at the fragments, then raised his hand and brushed them a few times.

Move, flip...

He moved so fast that before the other guests could react, the puzzle was already completely put together.

The general's face was revealed in the candlelight, and the scar on his forehead was exactly the same as in the portrait.

Chen Kai stared at the completed picture for three seconds, then looked up at Yu Chen with a look of shock on his face.

"Have you been to this secret room before?"

Liu Yanfei picked up the completed puzzle and looked at it, glanced at Yu Chen, then looked down at the puzzle again.

He could complete a jigsaw puzzle with one hand in less than ten seconds, while the other guests had been working on it for five minutes without success.

Chen Kai asked him if he had been to this secret room before, as if he could just rearrange the pieces and put them back together again.

[Hahahaha, I'm dying of laughter!]

This NPC's skills are amazing!

The moment the general's face was pieced together, I got goosebumps.

Didn't anyone notice that Su Wuli simply pushed the puzzle to him after realizing she couldn't solve it?

[Yes, and it's so natural, it seems almost taken for granted.]

[Oh my god, I'm so full.]

Place the completed puzzle piece in the recessed area of ​​the next door, then use the key to open the door together.

There was another staircase leading down, but it was much easier to walk down than the previous one.

The group went down the stairs and arrived at another room.

Once inside, it immediately started searching.

They went back and forth all over, but still couldn't find anything.

Chen Kai even squatted down and knocked on the bricks one by one.

After going back and forth once, he sighed, stood up, and dusted off his knees.

"The key to this level is probably not in this room."

Lin Luchi stood in the middle of the room and sighed helplessly.

He looked up and said, "We only have the roof left to dismantle—"

He suddenly stopped speaking.

There was a painting on the roof, with a lotus flower in the center and a rope hanging down from it.

And a copper key was tied to the end of the rope.

"It's up there," Lin Luchi said with delight.

Oh my god, it's true.

[Hahaha, what about Chen Kai kneeling on the ground and banging on the floor just now?]

[His floor-tapping skills are impressive, hahaha.]

Chen Kai also tilted his head back and squinted at it for several seconds.

"That's way too high."

On the other side, Liu Yanfei had already moved a chair and placed it directly under the lotus flower.

You step on it, but it's impossible to reach it.

Lin Luchi is usually the most proactive member of the team. At this moment, he simply dragged over the long table next to him and moved a chair onto it.

The chair leg got stuck on the edge of the table, barely managing to stay stable.

Without saying a word, he climbed up.

Standing on the two-story structure, he had to stand on tiptoe.

His fingers tentatively hooked onto the rope.

Pulling the rope down, the key jumped up and got stuck in the lotus petals.

He tugged at it twice but couldn't budge it.

Chen Kai shouted from below, "Don't pull me forcefully."

"I didn't pull him by force," Lin Luchi said, his voice slightly breathless. "It was so close..."

[My God, that's so high! Even Lin Luchi can't reach it.]

What to do if the key is stuck?

[Lin Luchi is swaying dangerously up there; is that chair even stable?]

Don't fall.

Su Wuli looked up at Lin Luchi swaying back and forth in the chair, and couldn't help but worry.

Lin Luchi tried again, but the rope still wouldn't budge. He thought he'd go down and come up with another strategy.

I tried it but found it didn't work.

He gasped for breath and shouted down, "I can't get down!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Su Wuli instinctively turned her head to look at Yu Chen.

Before she could say anything, Yu Chen stepped out from behind her.

He walked directly to the table and raised his hand.

Lin Luchi paused for a moment when he saw the outstretched hand.

Before they could react, the man's feet stepped on the long table and he rose up.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Luan's collar was grabbed.

He was lifted off the chair like a cat.

When Lin Luchi stood on the ground, his legs went weak for a moment, and he had to hold onto the edge of the table to steady himself.

Immediately afterwards, Yu Chen jumped onto the platform, his boots landing on the table.

No sound.

He didn't even step on the chair; he just stepped onto it.

He reached for the rope.

The rope was incredibly obedient in his hands; it only required a gentle tug.

The key jumped out of the lotus petals and landed in his palm.

He jumped down very lightly, his boots making no sound at all.

Then he walked up to Su Wuli and handed her the key.

Su Wuli was stunned for a moment, then took the key from his hand.

He caught Lin Luchi with one hand?! He's a grown man, over 1.8 meters tall!

Not only me, but Lin Luchi didn't even realize how he got down there.

Is this NPC's combat power set too high? Is he even a normal human?

"Mom, I think I saw the long-lost art of light-body kung fu."

He stepped onto the platform in one stride; did you notice how long his legs were?

[Isn't the most endearing part that he only handed the key to Su Wuli and not to anyone else?]

[I noticed it too, and some loyal fans are wondering what's going on!]

Lin Luchi stood there stunned for two seconds, then looked down at his feet.

He looked up at the high platform again, and then at Yu Chen.

Incredulous, she asked, "Did he just catch me?"

Chen Kai looked at his face and nodded.

Lin Luchi couldn't hide the shock on his face.

Su Wuli clutched the key in her hand and looked up to meet the man's eyes.

Yu Chen just looked at her without saying a word. Even though her mouth and nose were covered, Su Wuli could still sense his silent words.

It was like telling her, "Go."
