Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1143 The lying old man
  It is reasonable and reasonable to say that the public loses their grudges, and there seems to be no problem.

In fact, there is no hidden secret.

His overbearing machine skills have gathered a lot of messy gadgets, but he really hasn't made any preparations for the activity of going into the water.

In short, you can only carry dozens of kilograms of bronze and swim with the remaining half of your body.

Can you swim?
  Can swim!

But you can only swim a little.

How much he can swim depends on how deep he goes into the water, because he can only go downstream, not around or up.

We generally call this situation sinking to the bottom...

Qiantaki and Tianming looked at Gongshuqiu's exposed mechanical arm and one mechanical foot, then looked at each other and fell into silence.

It is indeed embarrassing for the elderly.

Even if he is not a good person, he cannot force someone to commit suicide by drowning himself in the river.

"There's just... no other way? Do we have to go into the water?" Chitaki confirmed again without giving up.

Gong Shuqiu showed a helpless expression, "There is really no way, the only way is to go underwater."

Then he looked around the space and analyzed, "This quiet room is probably not an ordinary retreat. It may be used for retreat, and it even has some kind of punishment meaning, so it is difficult to get in and get out. "

Tianming was stunned when he heard this and scratched his head, "Didn't you say that this is the place where the boss of the Mo family goes into seclusion?"

"Who else can punish him?"

"Ha!" Gong Shuqiu stroked his beard and smiled contemptuously, "Of course there is, that is the Mohist tycoon himself."

"People like the Mo family, who call themselves chivalrous, are the best at this kind of face-saving drama!"

As the patriarch of the Gongshu family, Gongshu Chou casually dissed the Mo family and then returned to the topic, "Your Highness, only this young boy can open the floodgates right now, so you see..."

Tianming took away Qiantaki's hand that was blocking him and said solemnly, "In this case, Qiantaki, I have to go."

Gong Shuqiu immediately echoed, "That's right, that's right."

"Your Highness Chitaki, one more thing is that the water in the city is now full of poisonous substances. Although the water itself is not poisonous, it will continuously produce poisonous gas."

"As soon as this place opens, the poisonous gas will spread quickly, and you will be in danger by then!"

"To be honest, if I hadn't taken your safety into consideration, I wouldn't have let this kid open the gate. You know, as soon as the water is released, Lord Wei Zhuang's poison will be eliminated. This is not a small crime!"

Hearing these words, the two people who had not been troubled by the poisonous gas for a long time suddenly woke up.

Yes, there is poison gas!
  A doubt in the two people's minds was also answered - oh, it turns out that the poisonous gas comes from the water!
  Chitaki no longer has a poison-proof silk scarf at this time, and the ones he used before have become ineffective. In other words, if the poisonous gas fills the air, the two of them will have to send it.

With a direct threat to life, we must go into the water no matter what.

Although Qiantaki was worried, she couldn't just let the two of them stay here and wait for death. However, she was not in a hurry. Instead, she asked Gong Shuqiu in detail about the possible dangers.

"The water is poisonous now. Even if it goes down at dawn, it won't last long!?"

Gongshu Qiu Fuxu shook his head, "Your Highness doesn't know. The poison Master Wei Zhuang used today is very strange. It dissolves in water and emits poisonous gas, but the water itself does not have any toxicity. It can even be said that the water is now the safest place in the city. .”

"But..." Gongshu Qiu Chao Tianming smiled maliciously, "The water must be full of poisonous gas, so... brat, you'd better take as little breath as possible to avoid being directly poisoned halfway." If you lose the ability to move in the water, you will be dead!"

"Hmph!" Tianming learned from Gong Shuqiu's attitude before he snorted contemptuously, raised his head and turned to one side, pretending not to hear what he said.

Gong Shuqiu grinned, disapproving of this young boy's attitude - he probably wouldn't live long, so he didn't care about him anymore!
  Qiantaki frowned a little more when he heard this, "It's poisonous gas and gears. This journey is too dangerous..."

Tianming didn't care, or he was already prepared to face any difficulties.

Years of wandering have brought him not only unbearable childhood memories, but also an endurance far beyond ordinary people's and the courage to face any difficulties.

Now that the situation has reached this point, the only choice is to face it!
  At this time, Gongshu Qiu deliberately urged, "Your Highness, time waits for no one, this poisonous gas..."

After hearing this, Tianming pushed Qianlong aside, walked to the entrance of the ground, and said firmly, "I'll set off right now!"

Qiantaki clenched her hands and clasped her heart, looking at Tianming worriedly, but in the end she didn't say anything.

Gongshuqiu, on the other hand, hurriedly warned, "By the way, there are two switches at the Xuanwu valve. Remember, you must turn on the red one, the red one!"

"Oh... huh?" Tianming nodded subconsciously at first, and then immediately let out a suspicious sound, squinting at Gong Shuqiu.

Chitaki also had a similar expression, and also turned his attention to Gongshu Chou.

"The red one...Old man, you're not trying to trick me into helping you harm the Mo family, are you?"

Tianming, who has always had a weak brain, was very smart this time, and he suddenly came up with an idea - maybe the plug-in has not been completely offline, and there is still a little bit of functionality left.

Chitaki also asked, "Gongshuqiu, are you sure you turned on the red switch?"

Gongshuqiu faced the joint questioning of the two men with a calm expression, stroking his beard with one hand and smiling slightly, "Of course, Your Highness Qianlong, how dare I lie to you!"

"We need the water level to drop, and we have to turn on the red switch, so that we can open the floodgates."

“If you open another one, nothing will change!”

These two sentences are the truth, the big truth - what Gongshuqiu thinks.

The red switch can indeed open the water gate!
  However, it will not open the water inlet gate at the same time, but will drain the water directly.

Opening another one really won’t make any difference!
  It is a water change. After the change, the water level will still be the same as it is now, but there is no change.

Gongshu Chou's steadfast look made Qianlong and Tianming believe him a little bit.

Especially Qiantaki, she felt that Gong Shuqiu should not dare to deceive her at will.

The two of them whispered to each other in Tianming, during which they kept stealing glances at Gongshuqiu. They found that the old man looked frank and honest from beginning to end, and finally felt relieved for the time being.

"I'll trust you once!" Tianming waved his hand and was about to dive into the water with Fei Gong in his arms.

At this time, Gong Shuqiu hurriedly stopped him, pretending to be calm and pointing his finger casually, as if he was just reminding him casually, "Oh, don't worry!"

"I told you that this section of the waterway is very dangerous. Why are you carrying this insignificant thing? It's better to leave it here."

"Anyway, Your Highness Chitaki is here to help you keep it, so even if it's very important, you're not afraid of losing it!"
