Chapter 388 The Solar System

The mysterious Mutsu Zhou Palace, the mysterious Shen Xing Yue.

A group of demons and gods stood in the square, silently watching her every move.

You don't say, that's an apt word.

There were demons and gods and monsters among their group, just no one.

Miss Shen told everyone to wait in place and took a step up the steps herself, and after taking a few steps out, she began to break the ban.

As she worked, she said to everyone, "You mustn't act rashly, there's a mechanism on top of the steps, if we don't break it, we'll be trapped on the steps, and we won't be able to go to the end even if we die of exhaustion."

"A circular ladder?" Li Mu asked curiously.

"Mon right, the name of this mechanism is indeed called the Circular Ladder."

"Pretty cheesy name!"

"It doesn't matter if the name is cheesy, just awesome!"

"How do you know so much?"

"My mother told me about it, and she taught me how to break it, so that's how I know what to do with it."

Li Mu s expression did not move, but the heart is silent, your mother told you, I am afraid that your mother may not know what that organ is!

He was about to say something else when Lin Wan waved her hand at him.

"You should stop disturbing Xing Yue, let her meditate and break the barrier."

Shen Xingyue laughed, "It's fine, I've taken care of it."

In just a few breaths, she had already cracked the mechanism.

In a trance, the crowd seemed to have an illusion that the gate of the Mutsu Zhou Palace had become a little clearer and the distance seemed to have gotten much closer.

After breaking the organs on the steps, Shen Xingyue came straight to the palace door, observed carefully at the door for a while, and began to break the organs on the door.

As the maneuver accelerated, the sound of thunderous drums came from near the gate.

Li Mu and the others craned their necks to watch the fun, not daring to take a breath.

After a while, only Shen Xingyue put her hands on the gate and pushed in with force.

Creaking, the door was pushed open a crack, just enough for one person to pass through sideways, not terribly spacious, but enough.

Miss Shen probed inside, half inside and half outside, as if surveying the inside.

Li Mu couldn't help but shout, "How's it going, can we get up there?"

Shen Xingyue retracted her body and turned to wave at them.

"Come on up all, it's safe here."

Li Mu walked up the steps first, and the others followed, coming together in front of the palace gate.

A few people poked their heads in and peered inside, darkness as far as the eye could reach.

They could only dimly see a tunnel that stretched inward all the way from behind the door, and after more than three meters, they couldn't see anything clearly.

Shen Xingyue asked, "Brother Mu, going in or not?"

Li Mu is a little difficult, whether to enter or not, enter, who knows what dangers are inside, do not enter, and some unwillingness.

After considering it for a long time, finally, put his heart on the line and gave a strong wave of his hand.

"I don't know!"

Shen Xingyue froze for a moment, then giggled.

Lin Wan whacked her husband and snapped, "What time is it, there's still no proper behavior, stop it, in or out?"

"I'm not making a scene, I really don't know, so what does the wife say, in or out?"

"If we don't enter the tiger's den, how can we be scared by the darkness, if you ask me, enter!"

"You're so rich, you don't even know what you're getting into?"

"What are you afraid of, how many times have we experienced great storms and waves, we still need to be afraid of this kind of small river and ditch, what's more, isn't there still a star and moon, we don't need to be afraid of it, go in generously!"

Several people looked at Shen Xingyue again.

The latter proudly tilted his head up, carried his hands upside down, and, with a flourish, was the first to walk into the Mutsu Zhou Palace.

Li Mu cursed in a small voice, "Transformation is not a sex change, how come one of them has become bold, are they ready to discuss buddies with me in the future?"

Lin Wan held his hand and dragged him, also walking into the gate.

He Xiaoyu followed closely behind them, drilling into the Mutsu Zhou Palace together.

Xiaobai again difficult, across the board is not able to enter, and finally the gate will be pushed hard to the sides, with a lot of effort, barely squeezed in.

The rest of the Gremlins swarmed in and all broke in.

Immediately after that, bam, the door of the Mutsu Zhou Palace slammed shut, tightly and seamlessly, and if anything, curses came out from inside.

Inside the Mutsu Zhou Palace, several people were dumbfounded.

Li Mu cursed, "Who let you all in, don't you know to leave a catch, a bunch of idiots, are your brains growing on the soles of your feet."

Xiao Bai hurriedly went to push that palace door, but it didn't move.

Li Mu continued to scold, "You stupid pig, outside is pushing, inside should be pulling, you push a hair, still think it's not closed tightly?"

White hurriedly changed to pulling on the door, the door ring was yanked off and the door still wouldn't budge.

Without waiting for Li Mu to curse, Lin Wan discouraged, "Forget it, they've already come in, it's useless for you to curse them to death, let's see what's going on here first!"

Little Brother Li grunted, before taking a closer look around.

It was an enclosed space with lampstands carved into the stone walls on both sides, which housed a special lighting material.

By now, the illuminations had begun to burn, emitting a clear, ethereal glow that illuminated the surroundings with an eerie aura.

At his feet was a tunnel that led straight to a large hall.

Li Mu pointed at the large hall and said to the others, "There's no way out, we can only go there to take a look, everyone be careful, this place is a bit evil, let's surround each other, don't act alone."

Following the tunnel, they came all the way to the entrance of the great hall, and found that the door of the hall was wide open, and it was still dark inside, so that with their eyesight, they couldn't see anything clearly.

Shen Xingyue explained, "This is a technique that can shield our sight, and the only way to know what's inside is to go in and see exactly."

Li Mu threw the torch in, and it was immediately swallowed up by the darkness, and it didn't do any good at all.

The crowd hesitated to go in, Shen Xingyue said to Li Mu, "Brother Mu, you guys stay here, I'll go in and take a look, if there's no danger, you guys can come back in."

Li Mu didn't even think about it and immediately rejected her suggestion, "No, how can we let you go in alone, in case something happens, we won't be able to save you in time."

Lin Wan also said, "We must stay together as a group, acting alone is most undesirable, if we all go in together, if we encounter any danger, we can also take care of each other."

As he was talking, Little White suddenly exclaimed, "Master, the gate is gone!"

Several people hurriedly turned back and realized that the gate was indeed gone, not to mention the gate, even the tunnel they had just walked through had disappeared without a trace.

Behind them was a solid wall of stone.

Little Brother Li frowned and cursed, "Grass, when did this broken organ start, how come there is no sound at all, come on, there is no way back at all, no one is polite, together please!"

To be on the safe side, Li Mu let the Mistletoe Devil take the lead, they were in the center, and Little White was in charge of the rear.

A group of demons, devils, gods and monsters cautiously walked into the great hall.

The door to the temple closed with a loud bang behind him, startling Little Brother Li so much that he couldn't help but curse some more.

One by one, the lampstands lit up on the walls around them, the frail light still so eerily dim.

The interior of the hall was very spacious, with lines carved into the floor, drawing rows of grids, and Li Mu counted a total of nine grids.

On one side of the main hall, there were nine huge stone balls of different sizes and colors, and it was unknown what they were for.

On the roof of the great hall, there was a star map suspended, not knowing what material it was made of, but seeing the stars, emitting a faint glow.

Xiao Bai circled around the hall a few times and didn't find any portals to get out, so he only shook his head towards the crowd.

Li Mu didn't curse anymore, his attention was on the star map.

Tilting his head and looking at it for half a day, he looked bewildered and clueless, unable to understand anything.

Seeing Shen Xingyue also tilting her head to look at the sky, he couldn't help but ask, "Xingyue, what's going on?"

Shen Xingyue replied, "If my expectation is correct, this is an organ, and the answer should be hidden inside that pair of star charts, corresponding to the nine stone balls, placed in nine different grids, and if you put them in the right way, you can open the exit of the great hall."

"So that's what happened, so do you know how to put it?"

"I don't know!" Shen Xingyue said painfully.

"How could I not know, think again."

"Brother Mu, this star map isn't right, it seems to be missing something, I was confused for a moment and couldn't think of an answer."

Li Mu scratched his head and said helplessly, "The first level is so difficult, and I don't know how many more levels are behind it, so let's talk, who has any ideas?"

He Xiaoyu suddenly said, "Xingyue, when you say you're missing something, are you missing nine planets."

Shen Xingyue's eyes lit up and she hurriedly went to look at the star map again, and after a while, she exclaimed.

"I know!"

Li Mu asked excitedly, "Know what?"

"Moo, this star map is the solar system, we just need to place the right planets and we'll pass."

The solar system, with one sun and eight planets, is a total of nine planets, corresponding exactly to the nine stone spheres.

The crowd rejoiced at the news, and they all shouted loudly.

Li Mu said happily, "It seems that this level isn't that difficult? That biggest red ball is the sun, it should be placed in the first grid, then just place the eight planets next to the sun in order."

The reasoning is this, and the position of the sun is the easiest to determine, but how are the eight planets placed, who is inside and who is outside, who is in first place and who is in eighth place.

Lin Wan asked in a small voice, "Hubby, do you know which eight planets are the eight planets?"

"Know that Venus, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Venus, Jupiter, Mercury, Mars, Saturn."

"Three more to go!"

"Earth counts."

"Any more?"

"Moon, moon?"

"Moon your ass, and Uranus and Neptune, stupid!"

"Didn't I forget, yes, there's Uranus and Neptune, that makes eight planets."

"And do you know the order in which they are arranged?"

"So who knows, I'm lucky if I can memorize the eight planets, who's going to purposely memorize the order in which they're arranged, don't ask me that yet, you know?"

Lin Niangniang's pretty face reddened as she said frankly, "I don't know either."

Several people sipped their teeth; they knew about the eight planets and that they circled the sun; the point was, no one had memorized the order in which they were arranged.

At this moment, they deeply realized that books are not enough when they are used, and they all regretted why they did not take geography class seriously at first.

However, you can't blame them for not taking it seriously; ask any passerby on the street, and you'll probably find a lot of people who know about the eight planets, and very few who can remember the order in which they're arranged.

It's not that people have a bad memory, but what's the point of remembering that stuff? One is not for food, two is not for clothing, and the order of the planets is none of their business!
