People check in and punch cards in tomb robbery

Chapter 185
Wishing and Miss Hong walked across the gate of the archery building one after the other and walked inside.

At first when he made a wish, he was worried that those wooden men would turn around and deal with the two intruders, but soon he found that this was not the case.

The wooden figures seem to have been input with a simple instruction, and each one performs its own duties.

Moreover, their routes of action have also been specially designed. Although the place is narrow and crowded, they will not collide with each other.

They didn't even notice these foreign intruders at all, and they were still doing their own things mechanically.

"go!"

In order to ensure that the owner of the tomb did not leave behind, Xu Yuan observed for a while before leading the red girl through the wooden figurines.

Both of them were cautious and tense in order to prevent emergencies.

"found it."

Suddenly, the red girl's eyes lit up, and she stretched her hand forward.

Wishing to turn his head to look over, only to find a deep well-like thing standing in the center of the archery tower, holding a miner's lamp and leaning forward to look, there is a bright silver liquid flowing inside.

"This is the mercury that drives the mechanism. As long as you scoop it out, the entire bow and crossbow mechanism will naturally break without attack."

The red girl looked at it carefully, and then she turned around and said to Wishing.

"Row."

Wishing and nodded, just about to take the utensils from the ring, but found something wrong with the ground under his feet.

"what happened?"

Seeing the dignified expression of wishing, the red girl's heart sank.

"Don't move, something is wrong here."

"under?"

Following the direction of his finger, Miss Hong also lowered her head to look, but she didn't notice anything unusual.

All the floor tiles in the watchtower are almost identical in terms of size, structure and style, and there is hardly any difference.

Make a wish but don't explain much.

Just now, he clearly heard an extremely subtle movement, not much louder than the sound of mosquitoes.

But he heard it anyway.

That voice is very familiar.

It was exactly the same as the sound made by the crossbow organ when it was triggered.

"Girl Hong, grab the rope and let's jump over there together."

Wishing took out the soft rope hook, pointed it at the hanging beam on the wooden door when he came in, and hooked it directly with a whoosh.

"it is good."

The red girl's heart was hanging in her throat, but she just nodded her head to signal it down.

"One two three...jump!"

After making a wish, he and the red girl jumped out with the strength of the hook rope.

At the moment of vacating.

The floor around the mercury well suddenly sank to the bottom with a bang, revealing a deep pit of more than ten meters.

And under that deep pit, there were countless spears buried, hundreds of years later, they still shone with a cold light.

What a trap.

The red girl hanging on the hook saw the sudden scene below, her beautiful eyes widened, full of astonishment.

If she hadn't made a wish to remind her that she took that step, both of them would have stumbled and fell down right now.

Moreover, the trap under the mercury well has been deliberately polished all around, smooth as a mirror, and has no place to stand at all.

No matter how good the lightness skill is, there is only one dead end.

The two slid past the wooden man and landed at the door.

"what's the situation?"

Chen Yulou who has been guarding outside.

Hearing the huge movement from inside, worried that the two of them were in danger, they hurried in from the outside, who knew that after stepping through the door, they saw Wishing and Aunt Hong behind the door.

"Serial organ."

"The person who designed this ancient tomb is absolutely extraordinary. I am afraid that every step since we came down has been calculated by that person."

Xu Yuan pointed at the huge pothole not far away, and his face gradually turned cold.

Before, because my mind was stretched into a thread, I couldn't separate my mind to think about these things.

But right now.

But he understood it all at once.

From entering the corridor through the door to seeing the coffins in the ancient city.

The owner of the tomb firmly grasped the minds of the thieves, predicting that they would inevitably enter the ancient city to steal the coffins, and those coffins had already been set with silver threads.

Once the coffin lid is opened, the entire crossbow mechanism will be triggered instantly.

Under the rain of countless arrows, at least half of the grave robbers could be killed.

But that person was far from stopping. He even calculated that someone would enter the watchtower to dismantle the machine expansion, and then hollowed out the Mercury well and planted iron spears.

A ring on a ring.

The purpose is to put an end to all possibilities and completely exterminate those who dare to step into this place.

Thinking of this, Wishing's face is also difficult to look.

It has to be said that the person who designed the ancient tomb of Pingshan is unique in his powerful, vicious, and cruel methods.

"Brother Xu, what do you mean?"

Chen Yulou frowned, he was already unparalleled in alertness.

Especially after calming down, he actually saw a lot of things.

"Take the lead, I'm afraid the road ahead will be even more difficult."

Wish shook his head.

No one noticed as he said this, and he glanced overhead.

"The mercury well has been overturned..."

The red girl suddenly exclaimed, and pulled the two people who were talking back.

Turn around and take a look.

Because the bottom trap appeared, even the mercury well tilted down, and the bright mercury flowed out continuously, and a pungent smell filled the air immediately.

hum!
Followed by.

A sharp voice sounded, and the time in the watchtower seemed to have stopped. The wooden figure who was still walking through stopped instantly, and stood in place with a blank expression.

And in the holes around the archery tower, those powerful bows and crossbows also stopped shooting.

As for the source of the sound, it was the god arm bed.

At this moment, the mercury machine was destroyed, and the noose that provided the tension slowly stopped.

For a moment, the entire ancient city became completely silent except for the raging flames and the screams of the survivors.

"Stopped……"

"It really stopped."

"There are no more arrows, I survived and survived."

Not only wishing them, but the few people who survived the desperate situation on the distant city, also cheered wildly regardless of the severe pain caused by the arrow wound on their bodies.

Infected by the optimistic attitude of those guys, the corner of Wishing's mouth also evoked a smile.

He took a greedy breath of air.

Even if it doesn't smell good.

There was a bitter burn of burning oil, the pungent smell of mercury vapor, and the smell of blood pervading everywhere.

But so what?

It's good to be alive.

"Boss, what should we do next?"

The red girl looked at Chen Yulou and asked.

They went to the grave this time, and the casualties were extremely heavy. At least 20 people died in the arrow array and the flames.

If Chen Yulou hadn't left half of the people outside to support him before entering the city, I'm afraid more people would die now.

"It can't go any further."

"Go back to the camp first. The injured brother needs treatment. I have to think carefully about how to break the situation."

Chen Yulou looked sad and shook his head.

In addition to the blood stains on his face, the green clothes on his body were also torn in many places, and even his hair was burned off a lot by the flames. It seemed that he still had the slightest aura of being a leader.

The three of them exited the archery tower and returned to the top of the city along the protective rope.

There are people sitting all over there.

All of them were expressionless and empty, as if they had lost their souls.

Luo Laowai was still lying on a stretcher made of rattan cards, still in a coma, his injured eye was wrapped with a cloth strip, and the bleeding was also stopped.

Chen Yulou glanced at several people.

More than 30 people went in, and only eleven of them came out alive, and except for making a wish, almost everyone was wounded.

Sighing secretly, Chen Yulou was about to comfort everyone when suddenly there was a loud bang from below, as if something had exploded
The air wave was like a hurricane, blowing everything at the gate of the city upside down, even carrying the fire with it.

The few people on the top of the city only felt that the ground was shaking under their feet.

A group of people were still in shock, and then heard a burst of shouting from downstairs.

"The shopkeeper is someone from the engineering battalion under Luo Shuai, who blew up the gate."

It turned out that the people who stayed outside saw that the city gate was sealed, and then saw the fire inside, screaming continuously, worried that something would happen to Chen Yulou and Luo Lao.

But because the city wall was too high to climb up, people from the engineering battalion brought in a large amount of explosives from the outside, and they just blew up the dry gate that sealed the city gate, destroying a large area of ​​the city wall.

see.

The people stranded on the top of the city couldn't help being greatly surprised.

Immediately following the previous rope to reach the bottom, the people of the engineering battalion under the city had already extinguished the fire that had spread to the front with sand and gravel.

Just looking at the tragic situation in the ancient city and the appearances of the survivors, the eyes of each one are full of fear, and it is impossible to imagine what they have experienced within the wall.

"Get out of here first."

"Come a few people and carry Luo Shuai."

Chen Yulou walked several times in front of the gate of hell, and now he could not help being in a daze for the rest of his life after the catastrophe. He bit the tip of his tongue and was stimulated by the sharp pain. , and helped the injured person to leave.

A group of people had long been frightened by the tragic situation in the ancient city, so they dared not stay, and ran along the way they came, almost as if fleeing for their lives.

Although he failed this time, Chen Yulou would definitely not give up stealing this bottle of Shanyuan Tomb.

Because whether it is Chen Yulou or Luo Laowai, they are werewolves in their bones, and so many people have died on both sides in the past few days.

If you just go back like this, you will lose all your face, Chen Yulou will not be able to sit on the top of Xiling leader, and the hearts of the people on the top of Changsheng Mountain will also be broken.

Not to mention Luo Laowai, as the head of the Xiangyin warlord, brought hundreds of people thousands of miles to this poor mountain to rob the tomb, but he didn't even see the coffin and lost an eye. If he went back like this, he would definitely die become a joke.

With his tyrannical character, how could he accept such a setback? When he wakes up this time, he might dig up Pingshan in a fit of anger.

Moreover, Chen Yulou was able to take the position of leader, except for a few people, he never cared about the lives of ordinary Xiling bandits and thieves.

In ancient times, it was often said that one will succeed and ten thousand bones will dry up.

The same applies to putting it in an inverted bucket. It is stolen into an ancient tomb, and countless lives are filled in it.

Wishing was still thinking about another thing.

That means the partridge whistle is probably back.

As the team returned to the camp, there was a military doctor in the team brought by Luo Laowai, and it was considered that he deserved his life. After the arrow shot into his left eye, he pulled it out in time.

Otherwise, the kerosene on the arrow would penetrate into the blood marrow, and even a god would not be able to save it.

He also has a good foundation. He thought he would not be able to hold on, and even used ginseng slices to suspend his breath. Unexpectedly, at night, Luo Laowai woke up by himself.

Sitting on the shop, scolded for a long time.

He said he wanted to go back and call in all his soldiers, hollow out the entire Pingshan Mountain, and then chop up the tomb owner's bones to vent his hatred.

His profanity can be heard almost throughout the camp.

In the end, it was Chen Yulou who personally persuaded him to give up his mind.

However, the two still agreed that they would never return if they did not steal the Pingshan ancient tomb this time.

The next few days.

Luo Laowai was recuperating in the camp, and Chen Yulou also stayed in his tent for a few days, barely going out, always thinking about how to break the bottle mountain.

If you enter from the lower entrance of the abyss, although you can cut straight into the underground palace, the poisonous insects hiding in the deep valley are a great hidden danger.

Thinking of the tragic scene of the Saihuo monkey's death, he felt his scalp tingling with horror.

If you enter from the dug deep hole, the interlocking mechanism traps, no matter how many lives there are, are not enough to fill them in.

After thinking about it, he still felt that it was necessary to ask those Taoists who moved the mountain to help him.

After all, he had also heard of the technique of moving mountains and dividing armor at the gate of the mountain, not to mention the division of armor on Partridge Whistle, which was a sharp weapon to break open Pingshan.

However, Miaojiang is a vast mountain of [-] mountains, and it is tantamount to finding the people of Partridge Whistle.

He can only wait.

After waiting until the fourth day, finally the three of Partridge Whistle came.

I heard the news of the return of the three of them.

Chen Yulou was naturally overjoyed, and invited Partridge Whistle into his tent.

Even Luo Laowai asked someone to help him go.

It was cold outside, but it was as warm as spring inside the tent, and the sound of burning charcoal in the set up stove sounded from time to time, and there was a kettle on it.

By the time the wish arrived, the water in the iron pot had boiled and smoke was rising.

Tea was served to several people.

Holding the teacup, putting it under the tip of the nose and smelling it, a mellow fragrance suddenly wafted out.

Although Wishing doesn't know much about tea, he also knows that this tea is definitely not cheap, not to mention that it is located in the poor mountains and rivers of Miaojiang.

Get a glimpse of the whole leopard.

The background of the Chen family is worthy of being an inverted family that has been around for a hundred years.

That's the case with Chen Yulou, otherwise, with Chang Shengshan, it would be easy to be a warlord in this troubled world.

After chatting for a while, Chen Yulou looked at Partridge Whistle.

It took less than a week for the three of them to go back and forth in a hurry, and there was no joy of success in their faces.

"Brother Partridge Whistle, is it not going well with the tomb?"

"It's more than a failure. To tell you the truth, the tomb of King Yelang was robbed many years ago. When the three of us went there, we didn't even see a brick from the tomb."

Partridge Whistle's face turned ashen.

For this trip, he stayed in Laoxiongling for almost two years, but now he returned empty-handed.

This frustration made him extremely annoyed.
