My Antique Mirror Is A Portal To Another World - Chapter 350

Chapter 350: Treasure Trove (2)
Curious about how noble women in ancient times had lived, Bai Hanyun began checking every room with interest. Half an hour later, she entered the main bedroom in the courtyard.

Looking at the vases on the display cabinet, the huanghuali wood furniture, and the paintings hanging on the wall, Bai Hanyun’s eyes lit up instantly.

She swallowed and screamed inwardly, ‘Oh my God! This is not a manor! This is a treasure trove!’

Unable to contain her excitement, Bai Hanyun touched and admired everything inside the bedroom.

Just as she was about to leave after checking everything, she suddenly paused and asked with a hint of doubt in her voice, “Feng Yi, do you hear a faint sound of wind?”

Feng Yi focused his hearing on the surroundings when she asked this question. A few seconds later, he pointed toward one of the display cabinets and replied, “There is a sound of wind coming from there.”

Bai Hanyun rubbed her chin and thoughtfully said, “This is the inner room, and this building should be windproof. How could there be a sound of wind? Unless…”

She paused, then looked at Feng Yi. Seeing the realization in his eyes, Bai Hanyun quickly said, “Feng Yi, hurry! Check that display cabinet!”

Feng Yi nodded, stepped forward, and carefully inspected everything on the display cabinet. Moments later, he shook his head and said, “Fairy Bai, there is no hidden mechanism in this display cabinet.”

As a fan of costume dramas, Bai Hanyun possessed extensive knowledge about secret rooms. She pondered for a moment before saying, “Feng Yi, can you move the display cabinet?”

“This subordinate will give it a try.” Feng Yi tried to push the display cabinet away, but it didn’t budge. Shaking his head, he said, “It won’t move.”

Thinking that it might be too heavy, she said, “Let’s move the items first.”

“Yes, Fairy Bai.”

Together, the two of them removed the items from the display cabinet.

When they were done, Bai Hanyun said, “Try again.”

Feng Yi nodded and pushed the display cabinet once more. After a few minutes of effort, he let out a long breath and said, “It still won’t move.”

Frowning slightly, Bai Hanyun pointed at another display cabinet and asked, “Can you try pushing that one?”

“Yes.”

Walking to the other display cabinet, Feng Yi circulated his internal energy and gave it a push. With just a bit of strength, the display cabinet slid away easily.

Seeing this, Bai Hanyun realized something, and she walked toward the first display cabinet. “This one must be a door. There has to be a mechanism somewhere.”

Muttering to herself, Bai Hanyun carefully examined the display cabinet. When she couldn’t find anything, she looked at the wall and reached behind the display cabinet.

After feeling around for a while, her fingers brushed against a protrusion on the wall.

Her eyes lit up, and she exclaimed excitedly, “Found it!”

Without hesitation, Bai Hanyun pressed the protrusion. The next second, the display cabinet automatically slid to the side, revealing an open wall.

Groo~

Watching the door open smoothly, Bai Hanyun clicked her tongue and commented in awe, “The ancients were really smart. They could even create an automatic door with their backward technology.”

Now that the door was open, Bai Hanyun couldn’t wait to look inside.

However, before she could take a step, Feng Yi stopped her and said, “Fairy Bai, please allow this subordinate to lead the way.”

Knowing that she had no means to protect herself if something went wrong, Bai Hanyun agreed. “Alright.”

Seeing that the long corridor ahead was dark, Bai Hanyun asked the Yang Mirror, ‘Yang Mirror, can you help me get the emergency lamp from the drawer of my bedside table?’

[No problem.]

A second later, the solar-powered emergency lamp appeared inside her Qiankun Pouch. With a flip of her palm, Bai Hanyun took it out.

Click.

She pressed the power button, and the lamp lit up instantly. The bright white light illuminated the inner room, making it as bright as day.

Feng Yi was startled by the sudden bright light and stared curiously at the emergency lamp.

Noticing his curiosity, Bai Hanyun handed the emergency lamp to Feng YI and said, “Use this emergency lamp to light up the corridor.”

Hearing this, Feng Yi held the emergency lamp’s handle and stepped into the dark corridor.

With the bright light illuminating their path, they could see everything clearly.

Running her hand along the smooth stone wall, Bai Hanyun sighed and thought, ‘The dramas didn’t lie. I wonder how they made this secret room.’

Despite her curiosity, Bai Hanyun followed closely behind Feng Yi.

After about ten minutes, Feng Yi said in a low voice, “Fairy Bai, there is a room ahead. It should be the secret room.”

Bai Hanyun’s eyes lit up at his words. “I wonder what’s hidden inside.”

Before long, the two of them exited the long corridor and stepped into a spacious secret room.

While Feng Yi placed the emergency lamp on top of the only wooden table in the secret room, Bai Hanyun’s eyes widened when she saw the items displayed on the cabinets.

“Heaven, look at these items! Each of them must be very valuable!” she exclaimed in shock.

Unlike Bai Hanyun, who was busy inspecting the treasures on the display cabinets, Feng Yi went to check the wooden boxes.

Opening the nearest one, Feng Yi’s eyes almost popped out at the sight of gold bars filling the box.

“Gasp!”

Attracted by his reaction, Bai Hanyun put down the jade bowl and hurried over. “What did you find that shocked you so much?”

Before she could ask further, her words stuck in her throat the moment her eyes fell on the shiny gold bars inside the box.

After a long silence, she swallowed hard and muttered, “…Oh my God… Just how rich was this General Ji? Not only did he hide so many treasures here, but he even has a box full of gold bars.”

Bai Hanyun stood there in shock for a while before turning to look at the other boxes that filled the room. As excitement rose in her chest, she hurried to another box and opened it.
