Emperor Shen's charming wife

Ning Yao's brain was like a high-speed machine, constantly thinking about every detail that might be related to the clue. She examined the relic with full concentration, her eyes were so sharp that she seemed to be able to see through it, trying to find even the slightest clue from it. But time passed mercilessly, and every minute and every second seemed to add fuel to her anxious heart. Her forehead was gradually covered with fine beads of sweat, which slid down her cheeks, but she was unaware of it. The anxiety in her heart was like a balloon that was constantly expanding, almost bursting her whole body. Outside, the loyal guards and hidden masters were also trying their best to find other ways out. They divided into several groups and tried to find useful information from the base of the mysterious new character through various channels. Some people disguised themselves and mixed into the surrounding crowd to inquire about the news; some quietly approached the edge of the base and observed every move inside; and some people took great risks and sneaked into the mysterious base quietly, trying to find the specific location of Shen Yu from the inside. However, reality is cruel. The base of the mysterious new character is like an impenetrable fortress, or a bottomless mystery. No matter how hard they try, it is like groping in the dark, and they can never get started. Just when Ning Yao was almost desperate, her eyes suddenly caught an extremely subtle mark on the relic. This mark was hidden very deep, and if she hadn't concentrated and looked carefully, it would have been difficult to detect. Her heart trembled suddenly, and the map she had seen in Shen Yu's study before suddenly appeared in her mind. She clearly remembered that there was a place on the map that seemed to be related to this mark. She hurriedly took out the map and compared it with full concentration. After confirming it again and again, she was pleasantly surprised to find that this mark was exactly the same as the place on the map. A glimmer of hope suddenly ignited in her heart. Perhaps this is the key to solving the mystery. After racking her brains for a while, Ning Yao suddenly realized that the answer to the puzzle might not be a simple puzzle, but to use the relic in a specific place and in a specific way. This idea made her so excited that she could hardly contain herself. She couldn't wait to tell her loyal guards and hidden masters about this idea. After hearing it, they also thought that this idea was quite feasible. Then, they began to search around for a place that matched the map. After unremitting efforts, they finally found that place. Ning Yao carefully placed the relic on the ground and operated according to her own ideas. At this moment, her heart was filled with tension and expectation, and she didn't know whether her idea was right or wrong. Time passed slowly, and every minute and every second seemed so long. Just when Ning Yao was about to lose heart, the ground suddenly began to tremble. She was overjoyed and looked around hurriedly. She saw a huge entrance on the ground, leading to a mysterious place. In a race against time, Ning Yao led the team to rush to the mysterious place at lightning speed, operating nervously and orderly according to the clues on the relic. A miracle suddenly happened, and they successfully triggered an ancient mechanism that had been hidden for a long time. Along with the dull sound of the mechanism being activated, a bright light burst out from the relic, pointing directly in a direction. Ning Yao was overjoyed and hurriedly looked in the direction of the light. The place where the light pointed was a dark and deep cave, and there seemed to be something flickering in the cave. Without hesitation, she led the team into the cave. As soon as they entered the cave, a huge sarcophagus came into view. On the sarcophagus, there were all kinds of strange symbols and patterns densely engraved, which was creepy. Ning Yao's mind moved, and she remembered the map she had seen in Shen Yu's study before. She clearly remembered that there was a place on the map that matched the sarcophagus in front of her very well. She quickly took out the map and compared it carefully with full concentration. After repeated confirmation, she found that the sarcophagus was exactly the same as the location on the map. A glimmer of hope instantly ignited in her heart. Perhaps this was the key to solving the mystery. Just as they were about to open the sarcophagus, a mysterious new character suddenly appeared like a ghost. He suddenly appeared in front of everyone with an irresistible and powerful aura. With a smug smile on his face, he said, "Ning Yao, do you think you can find Shen Yu so easily?" Ning Yao's heart sank, knowing that this mysterious new character would never let them find Shen Yu easily. She took a deep breath and said, "Mysterious man, what do you want to do?" The mysterious new character smiled and said, "Ning Yao, I want to play a game with you. If you can find Shen Yu within the specified time, I will let him go. If not, you will never see him again in your life." Ning Yao was furious and said, "Mysterious man, you are really despicable. Do you think you can stop me from finding Shen Yu like this?" The mysterious new character smiled and said, "Ning Yao, don't be too confident. Let me tell you, this game is not over yet, and the real test has just begun." After that, he turned and walked away, disappearing into the darkness. Ning Yao suddenly had an ominous premonition in her heart. She took a deep breath and said, "Don't panic, everyone. We will definitely find Shen Yu." After that, she led the team to continue the difficult journey to find Shen Yu.
