Shangguan Hou was stunned for a moment, as if he hadn't expected that King would suddenly bring up the key at this time, but he quickly came back to his senses, sat upright a little, and said: "There are already some eyebrows, please give me a little more time."
King frowned, dissatisfied with Shangguan Hou's reply, "You are too late."
Shangguan Hou lowered his head, no one saw the expression in his eyes clearly for a while, "I will get the key as soon as possible."
King glanced at him again, "Only you Shangguan clan know about opening the shuttle tunnel. It's been so many years, I hope you don't let me down."
"I understand." Shangguan responded lightly.
King just stopped, and stopped looking at him, "I have some things to deal with recently, and I may not be at the base."
Those present were already used to King disappearing from time to time, so they didn't have any objections to it.
Not long after, the meeting ended.
When Shangguan Hou was about to leave, he was stopped by King's assistant alone, and then he and his assistant took the elevator down to the third floor.
The negative third floor is the core simulation room of the base, and there are more organs than the outside.
King was already in the simulation room, and when Shangguan Hou came in, he was standing in front of a stone platform.
There are Sanskrit characters engraved on the top of that stone platform, and a Tai Chi Bagua diagram is engraved in the middle, but the Bagua diagram is not complete, and the two grooves in the center obviously lack tokens that can be matched.
King kept his eyes on the gossip map, and did not look at Shangguan Hou who had already walked beside him, "Shangguan, your state is not right lately."
Shangguan Hou also looked at the stone platform in front of him, and after a while, he smiled wryly, "Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you."
King brushed the words on the stone platform lightly with his fingers, and said: "These are all re-engraved by you. Except for the Shangguan family, you are the only one who can unlock the secrets above."
Shangguan Hou curled up his fingers in his pocket, of course he understood King's implication, "If nothing unexpected, Shangguan Tong should have appeared."
A strange color flashed across King's eyebrows and eyes.
"But I'm afraid she won't open the shuttle tunnel for us." Shangguan Hou knew that woman Shangguan Tong very well, and she was so stubborn that nothing could compare to her sense of responsibility in her heart.
"That's not sure. People inevitably have weaknesses. She was able to feign death and show up now, which means that there is still a chance to pry her mouth open." King said casually.
"No, you don't know her." Shangguan Hou shook his head, "But the key to opening the shuttle channel is not in her."
"Oh?" King finally turned his head to look at Shangguanhou, "It seems that Shangguan has kept some secrets from me for so many years."
"It was only when I saw someone suddenly that the fog that had surrounded me for many years gradually dissipated." Shangguan Hou said slowly.
King became interested, "Who?"
"Shangguan Yu."
Hearing the name, King quickly remembered the name, "Isn't she dead?"
Shangguan Hou smiled lightly, but his voice was tinged with sarcasm, "So this is the magic of the Shangguan family."
Even he himself has not been able to study and understand the significance of such a special existence of the Shangguan clan in this materialistic world.
"So you mean Shangguanyu is needed to open the passage?" King responded very quickly.
"If my guess is correct." Shangguan Hou's eyes narrowed slightly, and he added: "But her current identity is the eldest lady of the Huo family."
