Explore Changbai Mountain

Chapter 418
Hearing the sound of the grenade exploding and the screams of several team members, Yang Lei who was hiding in a dark corner whispered to Shuai Shi in front of him:
"Old umbrella, good job, I knew it would work when I saw you let go of the grenade just now. As expected of being an engineer, you are really thoughtful. The length of the wire rope should be just right, and they are eager to chase us. The point of quickly passing through the corridor is also taken into consideration. Listening to the shouts, you have blown up at least three people, powerful, powerful."

"Hush..." Shuai Shi didn't speak, but told Yang Lei to keep his mouth shut and not to make a sound, but he also had a smug smile on his face, and he seemed to be very satisfied with his masterpiece.

"Just wait and see, the good show is still to come, Er Yang, he doesn't know how to grow his head, his chain trick is really too powerful, even with a super high IQ like mine, it is inevitable that he will hit it The trap he set." Yang Lei still couldn't keep his mouth shut, he still spoke out what was in his heart, and at the same time his eyes were full of expectation.

At this time, Pan Huayu and others in the soul lamp room were all stunned looking at the vast starry sky.Although many hidden compartments on the side walls of this room have been opened, the overall effect of the starry sky has been destroyed a lot, and it doesn't look so dizzy, but it is still very shocking.

After admiring this rare man-made spectacle, Pan Huayu nodded as he looked at the hidden boxes that were opened one by one. These hidden boxes are enough to prove that the actions of Liu Cong and others were rewarding. expected.

"Chase!"

It may be because the corridor has been opened many times.The strong wind blowing in from the cracks in the mountain cleaned the traces on the ground very cleanly, and there was no trace of Liu Cong and others escaping. Fortunately, the structure of the room here is relatively simple, there is only one road, so there is no need to worry. will go the wrong way.

The speed of the chasing team members was not too fast, because of the explosion of the grenade before, so they kept their heads down and watched their feet while advancing, for fear of touching the wire rope connected to the grenade again.

Just as a player walking in the front of the team was about to step into the room of the Qishang Mausoleum Guarding Formation, Pan Huayu grabbed the player by the back collar.The player fell under his strong pull.

"Are your brains full of mud? Are your eyes for breathing? Just look down and see what it is." Pan Huayu pointed to the passage between the Soul Lamp and the room of the Qishang Mausoleum Guardian Formation Said.

The other people looked carefully at the place he was pointing at, and through the swaying firelight in the room of the Qishang Mausoleum Protection Formation, these people saw that there was a faint thread running across the middle of the passage, a distance of There is a distance of about 1 meter 6 on the ground.

Pan Huayu leaned over and looked at the two sides of the silk thread respectively. This is another steel rope. One end of the steel rope is still tied to the safety bolt of a grenade, and the grenade is placed on the Qishang guard. On the side wall of the mausoleum room.

"The person who released the mine is a master. The previous grenade was placed close to the ground, so that when we walk forward, we will focus on our feet, and it is easy to ignore what is in front of us. But this first placed The two grenades did exactly the opposite, and placed the grenade at a high place, which is really hard to guard against."

At this time, Pan Huayu's face was solemn, he never thought that someone under Liu Cong's men could play this kind of dark thunder so well.After pulling out a pair of wire cutters, he cut the wire in front of him.

"Slow down the pursuit speed, they can't run, it's only a matter of time to catch them, don't fall into their tricks again."

Pan Huayu, who was the first to enter the room of the Qishang Mausoleum Guarding Formation, saw the eight coffins placed in front of him, and he slowly took out the sheepskin scroll without the lintel.

On this roll of sheepskin was clearly drawn the pattern of the Seven Wars Protecting the Mausoleum. Eight coffins were arranged in a chrysanthemum shape, and one coffin was slightly larger.

If Chen Ziyang were here, he would be able to recognize at a glance that the painting of the eight coffins was exactly the same as the painting on the broken stone slab they encountered before. It seems that Wang Dingqian is different from Zhang Taixu, and he does not want Later, those who entered the Taoist holy land faced the formation of the seven sages to protect the mausoleum head-on.

"Don't touch these coffins, walk around the outside." Although Pan Huayu had never encountered the Qishang Mausoleum Protection Formation before, he had heard of this formation more or less , and Wang Dingqian's scroll also showed severe pain, so he had to act cautiously.

Especially Yasheng's body that had been chopped into several pieces on the ground made Pan Huayu more cautious.Although he has some people who know Taoism under his command, they are not considered masters. They cannot compare with Liu Cong's strength in this area. All that's left is to escape.

There is no grenade set in the passage between the room where the Mausoleum of the Seven Deaths is located and the main hall. Now Pan Huayu and his men are almost like soldiers. Every time they pass a small place, they have to look carefully for a long time. Then he fell into the trap set by Liu Cong and others.

The corpses of zombies lying on the ground in the main hall also surprised them for a long time.Seven or eight headless zombies lying together, the blackened corpses in the brazier that was about to go out, the zombies standing in the corner of the hall with talismans, the square corpses, all the scenes in front of them are enough to show that before There was a fierce battle here.

Without keeping his eyes on Fangzheng's corpse for too long, Pan Huayu looked at these zombies with an angry expression. He clenched his teeth tightly, as if he had a deep hatred with these zombies.

"Brother Pan, something is wrong. Why are these zombies wearing official uniforms of the Qing Dynasty?" A team member suddenly noticed something strange.

During the previous battle with the zombie group, Chen Ziyang and others' nerves were stretched to the limit. They only focused all their attention on how to deal with the zombies, and no one noticed the clothes these zombies were wearing. It looks like the official uniform of the Qing Dynasty.

"Hmph, these are not official uniforms, but shrouds from the Qing Dynasty. These are Wang Dingqian's masterpieces. It seems that his spirit guards really came from here. I guess he has been here several times to study these zombies.

After he thoroughly researched the refining method of these zombies, he replaced the clothes worn by these zombies with shrouds from the Qing Dynasty, as if these zombies were refined by himself.

This pervert, he deliberately left the correct way to open the Seven Deaths Protecting Mausoleum Formation in the scroll, just to let the people who came later only endure the zombie test he set, so as to demonstrate his ability.

Fortunately, these zombies were all killed by Liu Cong and the others, otherwise it would be enough for us to eat a pot. In Wang Dingqian's tomb, we have suffered a lot from eating these zombies. "

After venting the depression in his heart, Pan Huayu started to worry again. At this time, there are three roads in front of him.A closed gate, an open gate, and a long passage leading to the main hall.

Pan Huayu's men were divided into three groups, guarding the three possible pursuit directions respectively, searching for the traces left by Liu Cong and others nearby.

"There are steel wires here!" Near the opened gate, a team member once again found the steel wire hanging in the middle of the gate, and there was still a grenade tied to one end of the steel wire.

"How about the passage?"

"The passage here is normal, and no steel wires were found."

"Take a closer look."

"I've checked it several times, and it's really not there."

When walking towards the third steel wire, Pan Huayu's brain was running rapidly.

If you don't count the closed gate, there are only two directions to pursue, one is the passage, and the other is the direction of the open gate.

From a common sense point of view, since the steel wire was found at the opened gate, it meant that Liu Cong and the others were probably fleeing there. That's why they set up a grenade there to delay the speed of the pursuit.

But there is another possibility, the third grenade is a suspicious formation.In fact, Liu Cong and the others fled along the long passage, but they placed grenades at the open gate, just to lead the pursuers to the wrong direction.

But there is a third possibility. The direction Liu Cong and the others are fleeing is indeed an open door. The reason why they set up a third grenade there is not to delay the pursuit, but to deliberately make the pursuers think that they will The second situation arises.

Regardless of Pan Huayu's analysis, he felt that it was irrational to infer the direction of the pursuit based on a single grenade, and the probability of any possibility was the same.

Maybe Liu Cong and the others didn't think so much when they ran away in Cang Luan, they just placed a grenade behind them.Maybe they had a flash of inspiration when they were escaping, and they suddenly thought of using grenades to distract the pursuing team.

Choosing one of the two has always been a difficult problem. Pan Huayu's head is about to explode, but he can't deduce the truth from it.

It wasn't until he cut the third wire rope that he realized that all his previous speculations were meaningless, and the third wire rope was the key to stopping his pursuit.

Unlike the second wire rope that was cut into two pieces when it was cut, when the third wire rope was cut, the cut wire rope did not sag due to gravity, but was quickly pulled away.At the same time there was the sound of gears turning and a chain rattling.

In fact, the third wire rope is very long, except for the section that is horizontal on the gate, there is a longer part hidden in the gap on the wall.

Driven by the gear in front of the unopened door, the long wire rope was quickly pulled aside.With the passing of the wire rope, the talismans attached to the foreheads of several zombies standing in the corner fell down together.These zombies moved in an instant, killing dozens of team members who were stunned in the hall.

Looking at the positions of these zombies before and recalling the way the steel wire was wound, Pan Huayu instantly understood that he already knew where Liu Cong and others were hiding.

Although the answer was unbelievable and unbelievable, Pan Huayu did already know the answer.He didn't understand why Liu Cong and others had the courage to hide there, and they didn't have the heart to think about it.What he admires the most now is the person who set the three steel wires.

The first steel wire cleverly used the urgency of his team to pursue, cleverly used the surrounding terrain, concealed the grenade, and played a lethal effect.

In fact, the function of this first steel wire is not just to kill many people on your side. The main purpose of the steel wire is to instill in yourself an idea, that is, the steel wire is connected to a grenade, and you cannot go easily. touch.

The second wire is the key to the whole scheme.The second steel wire cleverly rises from a place close to the ground to a place very high from the ground.Doing this actually does two things.

The first function is to make yourself think that the purpose of setting up the steel wire is really to cause damage to the team, because the height of the steel wire that changes suddenly can make people hard to guard against, and it is easier to hit this trap.

And the second function is to instill in oneself an idea, that is, as long as the steel wire is cut, the grenade connected to the steel wire will not be dangerous.

And when I saw the third steel wire, all I could think about was the direction of the pursuit, and all I could think about was whether the third steel wire was a suspicious array created to disturb my vision.Instead, I let myself ignore the most important thing, that is, whether the third steel wire should be cut or not.

It is precisely because of the two steel wires before that I, who has always been cautious, did not think so much after seeing the grenade connected by the steel wire. I subconsciously thought that as long as the steel wire was cut, the grenade would not be lethal. And it was precisely this cut steel wire that triggered the real mechanism.

Watching a team member die tragically under the sharp claws of the zombies, watching the bullets that hit the zombies and being bounced off one after another, watching the door leading to the room of the Qishang Mausoleum Guard Formation behind several zombies , Pan Huayu's heart was bleeding.

He didn't feel sorry for these dead team members, but felt extremely depressed that he had fallen into someone else's trap.The person who designed this trap was chained one after another, and the whole scheme was hard to guard against, which made him lose face.

"Who is it! Who is it!" Pan Huayu roared hysterically, directing his team members to rush into the room where the Seven Deaths Guardian Mausoleum is located, but those tall zombies were like huge meat grinders , causing any team members who approached them to lose their lives.

Roaring, gunshots and screams were the previously agreed signals. When these three sounds reached the room where the Qishang Mausoleum Guarding Formation was located at the same time, the coffin lid of the coffin that did not hold the spirit of the ghost suddenly popped. Opened, Liu Cong and three tall team members stood up from the coffin.

"Quick! Open the coffin." The four hurried to the nearest coffin, lifted the heavy sarcophagus lid, and threw it aside, revealing Chen Ziyang and Xu Xiaoyuan who were hiding in the sarcophagus.

Because they were afraid of touching the bones in the coffin and breaking the clay pots under the coffin, Chen Ziyang and Xu Xiaoyuan took refuge in the coffin in very awkward postures, and they could only climb out of the coffin with the help of Liu Cong and others. come out.

"Your plan has come true!" Liu Cong said excitedly.
