A knife in love

Chapter 760

Situ Qiao groped around on the earthen wall, but found no hidden doors and other traps, feeling a little disappointed in his heart.After he walked around the small room and found nothing, he walked back to the original place, just standing in front of the broken bed.

When everyone fled to this deserted village, they broke into this thatched cottage.It's just that there are two skeletons in the house, which is extremely terrifying.So although everyone searched in the house, they didn't check the broken bed carefully.Later, Situ Qiao and others had guessed that the skeleton lying on the bed was Zhao Kuo, and they were afraid, wishing to get as far away from this broken bed as possible.This time, he searched the house again, although he checked very carefully, but only on the earthen walls and the ground.As for this broken bed, no one dared to move it, and no one was even willing to approach it, as if they were afraid of getting bad luck.

Situ Qiao stood in front of the bed, thinking deeply.After a while, he suddenly raised his right leg and kicked on the edge of the broken bed.

The broken bed looked precarious and seemed ready to collapse at any moment.Although Situ Qiao's kick only used a third of his strength, he thought it was enough to knock the broken bed down.Unexpectedly, after kicking it up, although the broken bed shook a few times, it did not collapse.

Situ Qiao was surprised and delighted, and couldn't help shouting loudly: "So the mechanism is on this broken bed!"

Everyone is rummaging through the house.Some stood by the wall, digging inch by inch, and some squatted on the ground, beating everywhere with their weapons.It's just that after searching for a long time, but found nothing, I can't help but feel a little frustrated.Hearing Situ Qiao speak, everyone was overjoyed and gathered in front of the bed.

Situ Qiao rested his hands on the edge of the broken bed, and lifted it up forcefully.Although the broken bed creaked, it did not leave the ground.Han Li and Li Xu hurried forward to help. The three of them supported the broken bed and lifted it up with all their strength.There was a sharp "click", and the broken bed was finally lifted up by the three of them.

It's just that after the foot of the bed left the ground, there was only a strange noise under the bed, as if several pieces of iron were rubbing against each other, the sound was extremely ear-piercing.Li Qiufeng and the others were shocked, and couldn't help taking a few steps back.Situ Qiao, Changsun Guangming, Han Li, and Li Xu are proficient in secret organ techniques, but they were overjoyed when they heard this voice.The four knew that this was the sound made by the wooden wheel and iron chain driving the mechanism.Since I heard this voice, there must be something weird under the bed.

After the three of them lifted the broken bed, they leaned it against the dirt wall, exposing the ground under the bed.This ground is no different from other places in the house, but it has been covered by the broken bed for a long time, and the ground looks darker than other places.Situ Qiao, Han Li, and Li Xu stood aside, staring blankly at the ground, feeling a little uneasy.

Seeing that Gao Lishi finally had a glimmer of life, he was ecstatic.It's just that after the broken bed was lifted, Situ Qiao and others stopped their hands and just stood there in a daze.Gao Lishi was anxious and couldn't help but squeezed over, wanting to see what happened.Unexpectedly, he just stood next to the broken bed, but Han Li said in surprise: "Grand butler, be careful, don't be hurt by the mechanism!"

Gao Lishi was stunned, and was about to speak, but felt a chill coming from the ground, and couldn't help shivering.Shocked, he hurriedly took two steps back, looked at the ground that was originally covered by the broken bed, then raised his head, and said to Han Li in a trembling voice, "Mr. Han, what's going on here?" ?”

Han Li said: "Although there is nothing unusual on the ground, it's just that there is a very heavy cold air coming from the ground. I think there are other strange things down there. We must be careful not to fall into the mechanism."

At this moment, Situ Qiao and Li Xu were already searching around on the ground.The eldest grandson Guangming also came closer, sometimes squatting on the ground and beating with a long sword, sometimes raising his head to the sky, muttering to himself.Li Qiufeng knew that these four were all top magicians in the world, and if they joined forces, there might not be any mechanism that could not be broken.So Li Qiufeng felt at ease, turned around and walked to the door, and helped Monk Xuanji in.After Monk Xuanji applied the Yang family's gold-creating medicine, his injury had already healed a lot.He thanked Li Qiufeng, but saw that Situ Qiao and others lifted the broken bed and were searching the ground carefully. He didn't know what they were doing, and he was quite puzzled.

Previously, Yang Yansi kindly carried firewood back for the old Fusang man, but then he disappeared into the thatched hut without a sound.Although Yang Ye and Yang Yanzhao searched the house carefully, Yang Yansi was nowhere to be seen.Although the skeleton soldiers attacked massively afterwards, the Yang family father and son fought with all their strength, and had no time to take care of Yang Yansi's whereabouts, but his safety was always in their hearts.Seeing that Situ Qiao and the others found the mechanism under the bed, they were both surprised and happy, hoping to find Yang Yansi's whereabouts.It's just that the two squeezed in front of the crowd, but they were forced by the cold air, terrified in their hearts, thinking that if Yang Yansi fell into the ground, even if he was not attacked by the enemy, he might not be able to resist the cold air.Thinking of this, both of them were extremely nervous, and they only hoped that Situ Qiao and others could open the mechanism as soon as possible and rescue Yang Yansi.

Everyone had their own thoughts, and when they were making their own calculations, they didn't know which of the four people including Situ Qiao had touched the mechanism. They only heard a soft "click", and the expressions of the four changed drastically, and they hurriedly backed away.At this moment, the ground suddenly collapsed, and a large square hole appeared.The broken bed leaning against the dirt wall fell silently into the hole, as if the ground had opened a big mouth and swallowed the broken bed.

Everyone turned pale with fright, seeing the entrance of the cave that suddenly appeared, all of them were terrified in their hearts.

The entrance of the cave was pitch black, and although everyone was holding a torch in their hands, they couldn't tell how deep the cave was.Waves of cold air continued to surge up from the entrance of the cave, forcing everyone to take a few steps back.

Yang Ye and Yang Yanzhao were concerned about Yang Yansi's safety, so when everyone retreated, Yang's father and son did not retreat but advanced, and squeezed in front of everyone until they reached the edge of the cave.The two held up the torch and looked into the cave.I saw a stone step on the edge of the cave, extending to the bottom of the cave.It's just that Huozhezi's light is limited, and you can only see five or six stone steps, and then there is a piece of darkness, so you can't see how deep the cave is.

The father and son of the Yang family stood at the entrance of the cave, feeling that the cold was threatening and penetrated into the bone marrow.The two thought to themselves, standing at the entrance of the cave, the cold was already unbearable.Yang Yansi fell into the cave for a long time, although he was as strong as a cow, he couldn't stand the cold.If he is not rescued as soon as possible, his life may be in danger.The father and son of the Yang family were in the same mind, they looked at each other, and then they held the torch and walked straight into the cave.

Standing behind the Yang family father and son, Li Qiufeng and others were shocked when they saw the two suddenly walk into the cave.Because everyone stood behind the Yang family father and son, they didn't know that there was a stone step in the cave, and when they saw their bodies suddenly sinking into the cave, they thought something happened.Li Qiufeng admired the behavior of the Yang family father and son, and was afraid that they would lose something.Seeing this situation, he hastily rushed forward, wanting to help.It's just that when he rushed to the entrance of the cave, the Yang family father and son had already walked down three or four stone steps holding the torch.

Only then did Li Qiufeng discover that there was a stone step inside the cave, and he was both surprised and delighted.Seeing that Yang's father and son walked down the stone steps, they were not trapped in a trap, so they felt relieved.Situ Qiao and others also rushed forward, but they were also shocked when they saw the stone steps in the cave.Cao Bin said: "Since the gentlemen have found the secret way of the mechanism, we will naturally advance and never retreat. Let's all go down together, so we can have someone to take care of us!"

Everyone nodded in agreement, and rushed to the cave.Seeing that Cao Bin, Han Li, Li Xu, and Gao Lishi had walked down the stone steps, Li Qiufeng helped Monk Xuanji and walked into the cave.Situ Qiao, Changsun Guangming, and Su Yan followed behind Li Qiufeng, holding a torch in their hands, and walked cautiously into the cave.

The stone steps were extremely steep, and the cold air continuously surged up from the bottom of the cave.Although everyone has martial arts, they also feel extremely uncomfortable.He had no choice but to submerge his internal strength to resist the surrounding cold.After half a stick of incense time, Li Qiufeng was getting farther and farther away from Cao Bin and others in front because he had to support Monk Xuanji.After arriving, I could only see a few blurred lights under my feet, but I couldn't see the figures of Cao Bin and others clearly.

After another cup of tea, Situ Qiao suddenly let out a "hey".Li Qiufeng was startled, not knowing what Situ Qiao had discovered, and just as he was about to ask, he heard Situ Qiao trembling behind him saying, "It's strange, why did those people in front suddenly disappear?"

Li Qiufeng's heart shuddered.When he was walking, because he had to support Monk Xuanji, he looked at his feet carefully, so he didn't pay attention to Cao Bin and others who were walking in front.Hearing what Situ Qiao said, he hurriedly looked down.With the light of Huozhezi, I can only see two or three stone steps below my feet, and then there is darkness.The hazy spots of light that were originally a few feet away have all disappeared at some point.

Li Qiufeng stopped involuntarily, and his thoughts changed sharply.Situ Qiao took two steps down, stood side by side with Li Qiufeng, and said, "Brother Li, I've been worried that there is something weird in this cave, but Han Li and Sun Xu are proficient in the five elements of Qimen, and these two guys are in front of us." It is a good thing to open the way for us. But I am worried that these two people have other plans, so I have been keeping a close eye on them. The light in front of me suddenly disappeared, something must have happened..."

When Situ Qiao said this, he heard Zhang Sun Guangming talking behind the two of them: "Mr. Situ is right. They did disappear suddenly. We are five or six feet away from them. Do we still have to follow?"

Li Qiufeng was startled and suspicious.After pondering for a moment, he continued, "Cao Bin is right. We are on the verge of advancing and never retreating. It's just that we must be extremely careful when we move forward."

Situ Qiao said: "Brother Li, if you want to protect Master Xuanji, let the elder brother open the way for you!"

Changsun Guangming took a few steps quickly, walked up to the two of them, and said, "Mr. Situ, I will explore the way ahead with you."

Li Qiufeng knew that the two were proficient in Qimen and Five Elements, so he didn't refuse any more.After Situ Qiao and Changsun Guangming walked down the stone steps, he also supported Monk Xuanji to follow closely behind them.At this time Su Yan also followed, helping Li Qiufeng to support Monk Xuanji.The five of them walked down more than a dozen stone steps, guessing that they had reached the place where Cao Bin and others disappeared, so they walked more carefully.At this moment, Li Qiufeng suddenly felt that his feet were empty, and his body fell down rapidly.His heart sank, and he felt that the dazzling white light was constantly changing, which was extremely strange.

Li Qiufeng was horrified, and couldn't help but think to himself: "Could it be that I'm already dead?!"
