Chapter 184 Save Kunlun

A big arrow is as fast as a shooting star, stronger than a thunderbolt.

The arrow body is made of sinking water wood, carefully sealed with tung catalpa oil, and equipped with a three-edged armor-piercing cone, the power is really terrifying to the extreme.

In the blink of an eye, he was in front of everyone.

The first to bear the brunt was a guy in his thirties, with a fierce look, seeing that he was inevitable, he could only shout loudly, and raised his shield to resist.

boom!
The rattan grass shield is naturally capable of resisting ordinary arrows, but this god arm bed crossbow is a siege weapon on the battlefield.

At the moment of the impact, the guy felt his hand was empty. Looking down, the vine spleen was directly smashed, and the long arrow pierced through his abdomen.

On the crossbow arrows, the remaining momentum has not disappeared, and they penetrated the two engineers behind him one after another.

not only.

With the crossbow arrows of three corpses, it broke up the formation, and then shot at a lacquered coffin, smashing the coffin that weighed at least a few hundred catties, and finally, with inertia, it ruthlessly penetrated into the broken wall within the gap.

If so, seeing the huge clanging sound from the arrow tail, I know that the power of the crossbow arrow has not dissipated.

Three living people were strung on the body of the arrow like candied haws, and a huge wound was opened on the chest.

Blood, water, and minced meat were scattered all over the floor, and an extremely strong smell of blood quickly spread in the air.

This scene scared everyone.

But before they came back to their senses, there were several buzzing sounds of piercing the air in the darkness in the distance, and three crossbow arrows shot rapidly from different directions.

"Run away!"

Now who dares to step forward and take it hard?
The bloodstains of the three people were still wet, and the screams were almost still echoing in their ears.

Hearing Chen Yulou's long cry, the remaining 20 people quickly fled around, looking for a space to hide.

But this arrow array not only has the god arm bed crossbow, but also countless arrows shot from strong bows.

In the chaos, Kunlun rushed to a coffin, raised his big hand like a cattail fan and slammed down a coffin cover, like Xiang Yu lifting a tripod, holding it in front of him, protecting Chen Yulou and running slowly towards the gate of the city.

The coffin lid was densely filled with arrow feathers, and I don't know how many arrows were blocked for the two of them.

Others were not so lucky. They fled in all directions in a panic. From time to time, some people were shot to death or burned, and there were endless screams.

The red girl held a long knife in her hand, and desperately smashed away the arrows approaching her.

It's just that there are countless strong bows in the archery tower at the top of the city, and the rain of arrows seems to be endless.

She is a weak woman, even if she has martial arts, she will soon be exhausted, her movements will obviously slow down, and she will not be as sharp as before.

Seeing that he was exhausted, he also got a wound on his left arm.

The red girl only felt that her eyes were getting darker and darker, as if darkness would come at any time.

Wishing, who was using the Seven-Star Longquan Sword to cut off the arrows, noticed the situation of the red girl, and immediately stood in front of the red girl, and swung the Seven-Star Longquan Sword to block the arrows.

"hold onto!"

After finishing speaking, Xu made a wish and grabbed the red girl's bright wrist, walked through the sea of ​​flames, and walked along the city wall to the city gate.

The Xiling bandits and Luo Laowai's subordinates were still exhausted. The pile of bones on the ground was full of dead people's scarlet blood flowing like a river.

So he was going to destroy the arrow mechanism on the city wall.

When rushing towards the city gate.

Wishing to see a familiar figure.

Luo Laowai.

He snatched a dead body from the ground and kept it in front of him. It was covered in blood, and he didn't know if it was his own or something from the ground.

Judging by his appearance, he was in a panic.

suddenly.

An arrow came through the air, but Luo Laowai, whose face was covered in blood, didn't see it at all, and shot into his left eye socket, turning him over.

But he was also a ruthless person, he still gritted his teeth, held the body of the arrow with both hands, and pulled out the arrow together with the eyeball.

However, under the severe pain, he passed out and rolled into the pile of dead people.

At this time, everyone was completely messed up, and there were many crises around, and I made a wish that I would not give up saving others just because I saved one Luo Laowai.

And he himself was looking forward to Luo Laowai's early reincarnation.

So he entered the city gate directly and ignored Luo Laowai.

far away.

Holding the shield, Kunlun had sent Chen Yulou to the city gate, but looking at the corpses and flames all over the ground, he was still shooting arrows.

He knew that only by jumping onto the tower, finding and destroying the silver bracket that triggered this mechanism, could more casualties be prevented.

The people brought in were all elites of the Xiling Sect without exception. If they didn't act now, they might all die here today.

Thinking of this, Chen Yulou didn't dare to delay, so he talked to Kunlun.

Kunlun also got several arrow wounds on his body, but he still gritted his teeth, took a horse stance with his feet spread out, then crossed his hands on his chest, and threw Chen Yulou into the sky with force.

Chen Yulou is capable of doing light work, and now he only feels that the whole person is leaping in the air, taking advantage of the momentum to step on the wall, and the whole person jumps up.

The moment he approached the top of the city, he stretched out his hands and grabbed the edge.

Then he used all his strength and climbed to the top of the city.

Before he even had time to take a breath, Chen Yulou hurriedly turned around again, ready to put a rope down to pull Kunlun up.

Just this time around.

He saw another wave of arrows shooting towards Kunlun.

"Kunlun, be careful!"

Kunlun has followed him for more than ten years.

Although his brain is clumsy, his sincere heart has never changed.

Over the years, he has been robbing tombs everywhere, and each time he desperately protects him. I don't know how many times he has blocked open and hidden arrows for him, leaving him with accumulated injuries.

But as for him, he never complained even a word, he always had a simple and honest appearance, and he only knew foolishness in front of him.

So he wants to save Kunlun.

But there was a person who jumped off the wall faster than him.

But when he made a wish and was about to destroy the mechanism, he heard Chen Yulou's voice and immediately went down the wall.

Kunlun was the character he regretted most in the original play, how could he not be saved now that he had the opportunity.

In mid-air, when he made a wish, he swung his sword and slashed out a wave of Gengjin sword energy, smashing the arrows that had approached Kunlun. After landing, he swung his sword to resist the arrows, and led Kunlun towards the city gate.

Chen Yulou of the city wall felt relieved when he saw this situation, and hurried down the city wall and ran to the city gate.

When they reached the gate of the city, Wishing rushed in with Kunlun.

"Is Kunlun okay?"

Chen Yulou asked worriedly.

Kunlun, who couldn't speak, could only shake his head to show that he was fine.

The red girl next to him took out the wound medicine and began to bandage Kunlun.

A few more bandits and engineers rushed into the city gate.

They also carried a simple stretcher in their hands.

It was built with two rattan plates.

Lying on it was Luo Laowai whose face was covered in blood.

"Luo Shuai!"

Seeing Luo Laowai like this, Chen Yulou couldn't help but exclaimed, and walked over quickly.

"Leader Chen, save Luo Shuai!"

Luo Laowai's adjutant who walked into the city gate said.

"rest assured."

Chen Yulou nodded, and then said to Hua Maguai.

"Hua Maguai, look at Luo Shuai's situation."

Although Hua Maguai is not a doctor, but as a family of writers, she knows a little bit about medicine.

"Okay, the shopkeeper."

Hua Maguai nodded, walked to Luo Laowai's side, and looked at Luo Laowai's situation.

"Shopkeeper, Luo Shuai's condition is fine, he just fainted from the pain."

After looking at Luo Laowai's situation, Hua Maguai rushed to Chen Yulou and said.

That's good.

Chen Yulou breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and nodded.

Luo Laowai has a close relationship with his Chen family, once the other party dies, his Chen family will also be seriously injured.

"Boss Chen, since Luo Shuai has no major problems, let's break the mechanism, otherwise more casualties will be caused."

Wishing also saw that there was nothing wrong with Luo Laowai, so he looked at Chen Yulou and said.

"Not bad!"

Chen Yulou nodded, it was for this reason that he went upstairs before.

It's just that Kunlun, who has been with him for many years, was almost shot to death by random arrows, which made him mess up.

At this moment, when I came back to my senses, all the clues were sorted out a lot.

"Come with me, Mr. Chen has seen it before. The crossbow mechanism should be triggered, but it's endless, as if it's endless, but I can't figure it out."

Generally speaking.

Arrow formation mechanisms in ancient tombs are not uncommon.

It may be one or two rounds. After all, there are always vacancies for arrows, but the mechanism in this ancient city has lasted for almost a quarter of an hour. The sky is still full of arrows like rain, and the movement of pulling the bowstring in the dark is even more endless. Like wisps.

He even wondered if someone in the ancient tomb was secretly manipulating those bows and crossbows.

"That's what I'm suspicious of."

Make a wish and nod.

Although he has visited many tombs and learned the "Sixteen-Character Yin-Yang Fengshui Secret Art", he still can't tell what kind of mechanism it is.

This mechanism is like a perpetual motion machine, capable of infinite and permanent bursts.

Filled with doubts, Wishing, Chen Yulou and Hong Girl followed the sound of bowstrings breaking, and kept approaching the archery tower not far away.

"Shopkeeper, it seems that there is no way to pass the road ahead."

The red girl was holding a miner's lamp in her hand, and suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Wishing and Chen Yulou looked forward, only to find that the top of the wall in front had been repaired into a circle, and the light shone on it, making it look abnormally slippery.

"This is to prevent people from getting close to the watchtower and dismantle the mechanism."

Chen Yulou gritted his teeth.

Right now, he hated those Yuan people who built the Pingshan ancient tomb, and wished he could enter the main tomb immediately, dig out the corpses in the coffin one by one, and blow their bones to ashes.

"Have to pull a rope across."

Wishing estimated the distance, at least 20 meters, he could pass easily, but Chen Yulou and Miss Hong couldn't, because it was difficult for people to gain a foothold on it.

"I'll go back and get it."

When the red girl heard this, she immediately turned to get the rope.

After only a moment, she brought back a bundle of long ropes and handed them to the wishing hand.

Wishing wrapped around the rope and flicked vigorously, a simple protective rope was quickly set up.

The three of them followed the protection rope and carefully reached the outer edge of the watchtower.

"Give me the miner's lamp."

It was pitch black in the watchtower, and the firelight below the city couldn't shine in. He could only vaguely see some outlines, but he always felt there was someone in there.

I couldn't help feeling a little anxious, and turned around to take the lamp from Hong Gulang's hand.

Stretched forward.

Light refracts in.

The three of them immediately saw a scene that made them extremely amazed.

Inside the archery tower, wooden figures in armor were shuttled back and forth.

Someone controls the bow and arrow, and someone keeps bringing arrows from behind, and fills in the vacancy immediately.

Especially in front of the god arm bed crossbow, there are three wooden figures working together to control the crossbow.

Just go back and forth like that, repeating mechanically.

In the archery tower, apart from the sound of bowstrings being pulled, there is only the creaking sound from their bodies.

"This is... the Mohist mechanism!"

It was the red girl who spoke.

She has robbed countless coffins with the Chen family over the years, and is also in charge of agencies and the like.

Eyesight and natural history ability have also risen with the tide.

Looking at the wooden figurines walking back and forth in the watchtower at this moment, she explained the origin in one mouthful.

For example, in the era of the Republic of China, countless wonderful things from overseas, such as clocks and watches, involve mechanical principles.

But in the pre-Qin period more than 2000 years ago, mechanism art had actually developed to Huangfeng.

Among them, the most outstanding ones are Lu Ban and the Mohist school, and the Mohist mechanism technique has been widely used in ancient tombs as a hidden formation to prevent tomb robbers from entering.

It's just that the red girl is also amazed at this moment.

There is a strange brilliance in the beautiful eyes
It makes her look even brighter and more attractive.

After so many years of fighting, it was the first time for her to see such a clever and clever mechanism wooden figure, which has almost reached the point of confusing the real.

If it wasn't for their lack of activity, one would even think they were real people.

"Honggu, can you break this thing?"

Chen Yulou was also amazed.

He has seen a lot of strange objects and weapons, and he has heard of mechanism techniques in the pre-Qin period.

Among the seventy-two mountains in the world, Fengfeng Mountain, which is famous for making utensils, has a strange man named Li Shuguo, who is called Pinqier Li by people in the Jianghu.

The craftsmanship is extremely superb, and the Vajra Umbrella was made according to a secret recipe of a map left by Jin Suansu, an apprentice of the great thief Zhang Ye in the late Qing Dynasty.

Chen Yulou went to Fengfeng Mountain to worship and let the other party go.

There is a native bird in front of the door all year round. When someone comes to the door, it will fly up and sing.

He was also amazed at that time.

It was only later that I heard from Li, who said that it was made by imitating Lu Banniao.

Secretly comparing the wooden bird with the wooden man in front of him, Chen Yulou still felt that the mechanism man in the archery tower in front of him was more subtle.

Under no one's driving, not only can it run on its own, but it can also manipulate such a complex bow and crossbow.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he couldn't believe it at all.

Glancing at the red girl beside him, Chen Yulou asked:
"Generally speaking, this kind of mechanism should be made of mercury. It only needs to find the hidden well where the mercury is hidden, and it can be broken."

She called the dark well.

In fact, it is an institutional term.

It is the most core place.

"Be careful."

Chen Yulou nodded and said softly.

In fact, the red girl is not sure, but her eyes are still eager to try.

"Red girl, I'm with you."

Seeing that Miss Hong was about to walk into the archery building, Xu Wish followed.

One is to worry about the safety of the other party.

The other one is very interested in this mechanism man, and he can't imagine how such a smart wooden figure was created hundreds of years ago, almost comparable to the robots of later generations.
