TISHW 86




 Chapter 86 The Secret of the Treasure 12

Qin Shiyu walked directly over to the windmill base. It was unknown what he touched and an old and mysterious voice sounded in the air, "Congratulations on finding the treasure place. The person who finds the treasure can get everything they want."

"But in the end, only one person can get the most powerful treasure. I wonder who will be the lucky one? Do your best!"

The moment the voice disappeared, a "pop" sound suddenly came from the left and right sides of the stone wall of the windmill base. Shu Hua stepped forward to check and said curiously, "There is a mechanism!"

Jian Cang ran over, "Is this the keyhole?"

It turned out that a total of nine irregular-shaped sunken holes were exposed on the walls on both sides of the main body of the windmill. Ye Yuanyu directly took out a key fragment from his hand and stuffed it into one of the holes. It fit perfectly.

Xiang Chen said, "It turned out that this is what the key fragments are for, not to be put together."

Zhou Feifei instantly became excited, "There are five on the left and four on the right. The distance between these nine keyholes seemed a bit far." 

She asked, "Do these need to be pressed at the same time to open them?"

In this case, they must use her. Otherwise six people will not be able to press nine holes.

Jian Cang took his key fragment and found the corresponding hole. After pressing it, nothing happened.

Zhou Feifei immediately came to the conclusion, "Need to press them at the same time."

Qin Shiyu saw Jiang Yu peeling off the candy wrapper and directly gave Zhou Feifei a key, "Look for the keyhole first."

Zhou Feifei happily went to find its place. Jiang Yu unhurriedly peeled off the candy wrapper. Qin Shiyu asked, "Where are your keys?" 

Jiang Yu tilted her shoulders, signaled that it was in her little bag, and put the milk candy into her mouth, "It's okay. The rest will be mine after they finish looking for it."

Qin Shiyu didn't say anything and went to find his own keyhole.

Soon everyone had new questions. Shu Hua said, "Will the left and right sides enter different passages?"

The corresponding holes of the key fragments they got were all jumbled up. Shu Hua, Qin Shiyu, and Xiang Chen were on the left. Zhou Feifei was on Jiang Yu's side. Ye Yuanyu's two fragments were on one side each. What if people enter different channels...

After Shu Hua stuffed the keys in, she walked directly to Jiang Yu, "Change position."

No one had any objection. Anyway, everyone was indispensable at this time. It was no longer important who owned how many key fragments. What was more important now was the camp.

The group stood according to their camps, but there was still a problem.

Jiang Yu and Shu Hua looked up at the two very high holes and then looked at Jian Cang. Shu Hua said, "The two positions are a bit far away. You can only take care of one, right?"

Jian Cang replied, "How about calling one, two, three and I jump up and press at the same time?" 

He jumped and tried it. However, the wall was curved. So he ended up jumping up high and seemed to hug the wall with a splat. Even the legs reflexively wrapped around it. The key hadn't hit and he had already slipped down like a koala.

"What are you doing?" Xiang Chen, who heard the commotion and came to watch the excitement, couldn't resist laughing. Shu Hua even slapped her thigh with laughter, "Hahaha, you look like a fool."

Jian Cang turned back to glare at her and jumped off the wall. Jiang Yu laughed, "This won't work. Even if you can barely hit it, you have a keyhole underneath."

"That's right! Wouldn’t it mean the person below has to push it into the wall with you?" As Shu Hua said this, her brain had already had a lot of imaginative associations. She turned around and hammered the wall and laughed.

Everyone was amused by her contagious laughter again.

Jiang Yu looked at the opposing side. Ye Yuanyu, Qin Shiyu and Zhou Feifei were attracted to watch the fun.

She said, "We need someone tall."

The three boys opposite were all suitable. Jian Cang was nearly 1.8 meters tall, which was enough for one hole. Ye Yuanyu and Xiang Chen were both about 1.85 meters tall. Qin Shiyu was even more, 1.88 meters tall. This was enough for the other one. 

Ye Yuanyu and Xiang Chen looked at each other. Xiang Chen was about to step forward, but Qin Shiyu raised his foot first.

Both parties were dumbfounded. Zhou Feifei stared at him in disbelief, "Qin Shiyu, where are you going?"

Shu Hua was shocked, "Why are you, a captain, coming? Aren't you afraid that our undercover agent over there will stir your people to rebel?"

Qin Shiyu drawled out, "Yes, there is an undercover agent between the two of them. It would be inappropriate to send any one of them over."

"If the one who comes here is an undercover agent, he can pretend to cooperate with us inside and outside to eliminate us. If the one who comes here isn't an undercover agent, the undercover agent could cooperate with you inside and outside to eliminate us. How dangerous that would be." He looked at Jiang Yu with a cheshire cat smile, "So it’s best to come in person.”

Xiang Chen and Ye Yuanyu immediately expressed their firm support for the captain's decision because they were worried that they would be exposed as undercover agents.

Jiang Yu:……

【Hahaha, Qin Shiyu’s move is brilliant, if he isn’t been Jiang Yu’s undercover. 】

【He himself is Jiang Yu’s undercover agent. This move is very clever. In this way, if there is a confrontation between the camps, he can directly eliminate the person on the opposite side. 】

【This is his true purpose. Have you forgotten? He said he would take down all those who oppose Jiang Yu... 】

【Poor Ye Yuanyu and Xiang Chen, are they going to be used as cannon fodder by their own people? 】

【However, I think the person who has it the most difficult should be Jiang Yu, right? If she confesses, Qin Shiyu will turn evil. If she doesn't confess, how will she protect the two undercover agents on the opposite side? 】

【The key thing is that the two undercover agents on the opposite side are guarding each other. It's so hilarious. 】

In the camera, when Ye Yuanyu and Xiang Chen were leaving, they both conveyed hints to Jiang Yu while others weren't paying attention. Each conveyed their own message; Xiang Chen used his eyes, while Ye Yuanyu used gestures.

The audience couldn’t stop laughing:

【So the undercover war is about to begin? So looking forward to it. 】

【Actually, looking at it this way, Qin Shiyu is more skilled. What I'm looking forward to most now is Jiang Yu, hahaha. 】

【That's right, I want to know what she is going to do. 】

What could Jiang Yu do? She could only try our best to level the playing field and hope that they could persevere until the end together.

Compared to her, Qin Shiyu's purpose was much clearer. He smiled and whispered, "How am I doing as an undercover agent? I'll find an opportunity to eliminate them all later."

Jiang Yu coughed softly, "It's better not to be too merciless. The task setting this time is quite strange. One moment it’s competition, another it’s cooperation. Maybe seven people will be needed to cooperate in the last level?"

Qin Shiyu pondered in contemplation, "It's possible. Then it depends on the situation."

Jiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

The group had already stood up again. Although Ye Yuanyu and the others had two high-position keyholes, they were tall enough. They each pressed one. Xiang Chen pressed the lower key that was closer to him. Zhou Feifei held down the other two low ones at the same time, telling them it was done.

Jiang Yu's side was ready. Qin Shiyu and Jian Cang covered the two high positions on both sides. Jiang Yu and Shu Hua were in the middle, each with a low keyhole.

Ye Yuanyu shouted from the opposite side, "One, two, three! Press!"

The seven people pressed the key fragments at the same time and looked around to see which side the secret door would open. Unexpectedly, the ground under their feet suddenly began to rotate. Because it was so unanticipated, everyone was unprepared and staggered. Jiang Yu did not. Losing control, she fell to the side. Remembering that Qin Shiyu wasn't far away from her, she quickly stretched out her hand to hold on to the wall to stabilize her body. However, Shu Hua, who wasn't able to stand still, screamed and bumped toward her.

Jiang Yu got startled and couldn’t pay heed to whether she would bump into Qin Shiyu or not. She reflexively stretched out her hand to help Shu Hua. Then an arm reached over her shoulder and supported Shu Hua's back. With this movement, she stabilized by leaning on a chest. Summer clothes were very thin. She could clearly feel the temperature coming from the opposite body.

It seemed to have chest muscles... This thought flashed through Jiang Yu's mind unconsciously before she quickly regained her wits. She immediately stood up straight and seamlessly pressed tightly against the wall. However, the presence of the man behind her was too strong. It was like being wrapped in his arms.

Shu Hua in front recovered and breathed a sigh of relief. As she was about to turn around and say thank you, she felt a strong hand on her back and was pressed against the wall with a splat. Then her cold-blooded cousin's lazy voice sounded, "Hold it well."

Shu Hua was shocked. She didn't expect that the person who supported her turned out to be Qin Shiyu. When she turned around, she saw him slowly retracting his arm. His eyes fell on Jiang Yu with an obvious smile. While Jiang Yu's face was expressionless. Propping up her body from the wall, Shu Hua thought of Qin Shiyu's posture just now, his arm had to pass by Jiang Yu. So she asked in a low voice, "Did you get accidentally injured?"

Jiang Yu shook her head. Nearly. When Qin Shiyu held Shu Hua, his big arm directly touched her shoulder. It was foreseeable that if she hadn't had the foresight to press against the wall in advance, she would have splat like Shu Hua.

She couldn't help but turn around and glare at Qin Shiyu. He had no care because she took the initiative to avoid him, right?

Qin Shiyu didn't look at her at all and said casually, "Stand firm."

When the program team saw that they had all stood firm, the revolving door continued to turn inward. In fact, the door didn't rotate very fast. It was just that they weren't prepared earlier now. Now that they were mentally prepared, they all spun safely into the inside of the windmill. There was only a little light coming from the high skylight. It was very dim.

Jiang Yu noticed that Qin Shiyu raised his hand and touched his chest. It was exactly where she leaned.

It seemed that he deeply disliked physical contact...
