Concubine Chongxi: Binding the Medicine Jar to the Master

Chapter 167
Everything came so unexpectedly, the flying arrows, the sharp arrowheads pierced the men's bodies fiercely, splashing blood, and piercing the eardrums with screams.

In just a short time, those dozens of people died in the hall, thousands of arrows fell all over the ground, and even tied their bodies into hedgehogs.

Those who were still alive trembled in fear and whimpered.

This kind of death without warning was too compelling. Some people were so frightened that they collapsed on the ground, holding their heads, and murmured convulsively.

But some people pulled out their swords and continued to move forward, waiting cautiously for the arrows to fall.

The arrows shot out immediately, and the man waved his sword, seeing that the arrows were swept away one by one, he breathed a sigh of relief.

But who would have thought that this round of arrows would pass, and a second round would come. As a result, the man was lucky enough to survive only once, and followed in the footsteps of those before him, falling to the ground and dying.

Seeing all this, Ziqi stomped his feet angrily, pointed at the top of his head and cursed: "Listen to that woman who harmed my senior brother, if you have the ability to come out and single out! Throw away those dirty tricks!" Isn't it shameful?! Your Yin Yang family is all scum, not even the rats in the ditch!"

"Ziqi, calm down."

Baili Jiuge held Ziqi's little hand and let it go. At this moment, his clear eyes were shining with determination, and he said firmly: "Master once said a word, 'If there is a law, there will be a break'. I have always regarded this as the truth. I know how you feel at the moment, I am similar to you, but for the sake of Mo Li, you and I must calm down and think about the countermeasures to crack the mechanism. We must not be impatient , Pay your life here."

Ziqi looked at Baili Jiuge with admiration, nodded his head three times, and said: "Those arrows are all shot from the holes, and if you walk more than ten feet forward, those arrows will be shot out. "

"That is to say, there must be an organ that senses the intruder, so it will activate the arrow." Baili Jiuge murmured, holding and letting go of his little hand, and walked forward.

Ziqi said in shock: "Sister Heifeng, what are you doing?"

"Don't come here." Baili Jiuge didn't turn his head, but said with a bright smile: "I'll go and draw the arrow out, you and I can take a closer look, what kind of mechanisms are behind those holes, can they be cracked?" method.” Added another sentence: “Don’t worry about me, if you want to find a loophole, you must take some risks first, and I can be regarded as a person who is used to adventures, so this little thing can’t trouble me.”

While talking, while walking forward, Baili Jiuge controlled the pace, and every time he took a step, he carefully listened to whether there was a sound of mechanism ringing around him.

Those men who were still standing there, seeing Baili Jiuge try the arrow with their body, they all waited and watched the changes. They felt that Heifeng, one of the seven places in Huagu, had some skills. If she could break this The organ on the first floor is the best, if it can't be broken, she will die.

When Baili Jiuge took one step down, in his ears, he keenly sensed the slight sound of the mechanism running on the walls on both sides.

Immediately looked up, and sure enough, in the small hole in the wall, the tip of the arrowhead shone with a cold silver light.

At this moment, Baili Jiuge jumped up and flew back like lightning and flint, and the moment he landed beside Ziqi was the moment when all arrows were fired!

At this moment, the two of them stared at the small hole intently. As the arrow shot out, the things in the hole appeared. Although it was small, Baili Jiuge was sure that it was a mirror!And there is a small switch under the mirror!
She immediately flew up again, rushed to the front, stuck in time, drew out the second round of arrows, and took advantage of that moment to fly backwards again.

This time, Baili Jiuge was more certain about the thoughts in his heart. It must be that the small mirror caught the intruder, and then activated the switch, and then ejected the arrow.

In other words, as long as all the mirrors are smashed, then this mechanism will fail!

Ziqi also saw the doorway here, and said excitedly: "Sister Heifeng, we have to find a way to break those mirrors."

"I understand." Baili Jiuge smiled, bright light flashed in his eyes, and he carried a full sleeve of feathers under his sleeves, close to Ziqi's ear, and whispered: "I need you to cooperate with me, later You just..."

Baili Jiuge told Ziqi what was in his heart, Ziqi listened, and said, "I know Sister Heifeng, but this idea is very dangerous, you must be careful."

"Don't worry, don't forget, I only want to win, not die!" Baili Jiuge walked forward, waving his hands behind him gracefully.

And between Ziqi's ten fingers, the thin silver thread was also clamped tightly, ready to go.

Seeing this situation, the desperadoes next to him were even more suspicious in their hearts, and watched Baili Jiuge's next move without saying a word.

The red skirt is like a lotus, striding along the way, among the shooting stars, blossoming lotus flowers like fire.Baili Jiuge chose the position of his feet very well, almost as soon as he landed a certain step, he summoned thousands of feathers before the sound on the wall.

In an instant, white feathers flew like a sudden snowstorm, accompanied by the sound of hunting, blowing in the hall.All the feathers carried a strong internal force, flying around Baili Jiuge's body, she jumped up, borrowing strength on the feathers frequently.At the same time, all around, arrows are fired.

"Ziqi!" Baili Jiuge reminded, and at the same time, her slender body turned over in mid-air, and the two arrows just brushed against her chest and back and flew across, dodging extremely precisely.

Ziqi immediately responded: "Leave it to me!" Waving his hands, the silver thread flew into thousands of feathers.

Then, I saw Baili Jiuge shooting feathers towards those tiny holes, Ziqi's silver thread assisted the feathers, and shot the feathers towards the mirrors, and the next moment was the crisp sound of the mirror breaking, from near to far It kept ringing, and the fragments of the mirror kept falling!
Baili Jiuge kept dodging sharp arrows, and the thousands of feathers around her body blocked many arrows for her, and she was more than enough to dodge the rest.

The red shadow kept churning and flying, and at the same time shot feathers towards the surrounding holes, and then, under the thrust of Ziqi's fate, it hit the mirror accurately and shattered it.

The men watching were completely dumbfounded.Thousands of feathers are used as the wall protection, and the feathers are used as hidden weapons, and there is a perfect match with silver wires.What kind of method is this?
At the same time, everyone was shocked to realize that the other of these two women was Xiao Siming of Epiphyllum Valley!

While everyone was staring, the last mirror shattered, and the hall, which was still tense and terrifying just now, was as quiet as an ancient battlefield where dust had settled.

Baili Jiuge fluttered down leisurely, and the sleeves made a slight retracting movement, and the countless feathers were attracted by her internal force, and quickly returned to her sleeves.

Can't help but let out a long breath.Fortunately, this level is not too difficult, thanks to Ziqi's cooperation.

So looking back, he gave Ziqi a big smile, Baili Jiuge shouted: "Go to the second floor."

Like a rabbit, Ziqi rushed to Baili Jiuge's side in a blink of an eye, clapped his hands and shouted, "Sister Heifeng was awesome just now, that Qianyu Sha is really like Brother Ziqing's epiphyllum array!"

When he finished speaking, he was still applauding happily, and he didn't even realize that his own words pierced Baili Jiuge's heart full of blood.

She smiled, her eyes were clear and bright, but there was a hint of sourness on the nose, and her eyebrows were slightly twisted, and a feeling of heartache rolled over.

Mo Li... Thinking of this name in my heart, thinking about it, it hurts.I don't know how he is now, is it like being in ice water, and he can't warm up no matter what?I can only bear the unimaginable cold all the time, my internal organs seem to be frozen...

What kind of torment should that be?It would be great if I could share some of it for him.

Thinking about it, another face gradually appeared in front of her eyes, the daughter in green dress with long sleeves and pink face with peach makeup but with a ferocious smile.

"Long'er." Saying this name, Baili Jiuge roared: "You wait obediently on the top of the tower, I am Baili Jiuge, and I will kill you in front of me!"

She said sonorously, inadvertently, her pace quickened, and she stepped on the stairs leading to the second floor.

The men behind followed up one after another. They were no longer amazed at this moment, but their eyes were full of sinister.I thought in my heart: just rely on Baili Jiuge and Ziqi before going up, and then find a chance to cross the river and demolish the bridge, just kill them!
After a while, everyone boarded the second floor one after another.

After Baili Jiuge and Ziqi came up, they stopped moving forward, and the men who came up behind also gathered around them.

At this moment, there was darkness in front of everyone, and at the end of the darkness was the stairs leading to the third floor.And connecting the two sides is a palm-wide single-plank bridge, and it is impossible to see what is under the single-plank bridge.

Because they encountered arrows just now on the first floor, the men were also more careful. They looked at the surrounding walls, but they were smooth and there was nothing strange about them. Only some oil lamps hung on the walls, but they were extinguished. .

Someone heaved a sigh of relief and said, "I thought there would be some kind of scary trap, but it turned out to be a single-plank bridge. We have all practiced lightness kung fu, so will we still get away if we walk across the bridge?"

The man said that he was afraid in his heart that if so many people went up with him, the gods would not be able to take care of him, so he wanted to fight for the first one, so he walked towards the single-plank bridge.

"Wait a minute!" Baili Jiuge intuitively felt that there must be something under the single-plank bridge, otherwise why is it so dark here?
"Don't take it lightly!"

But that person didn't take Baili Jiuge's warning seriously, and performed lightness kung fu, got on the single-plank bridge, and walked quickly towards the opposite side with a cloud step.

But just two steps away, the shoes were penetrated by the heat wave, and the soles of his feet were burned to death. Only then did he realize that the single-plank bridge below was a red-hot iron pipe!
Because of the overheating stimulation, the man couldn't perform the cloud walk at all, and fell from the iron pipe screaming.

Everyone was startled, Baili Jiuge hurried to the bridge, trying to pull the man up, but at this moment, there was a heart-piercing scream from under the single-plank bridge, and he was quickly bitten by countless people covered by the whisper.

At the same time, the oil lamps on both sides of the iron pipe were all lit up.

At this moment, everyone could see clearly that under the iron pipe was a rat pond!There are tens of thousands of ravenously hungry mice, and they are now swarming to gnaw on the man just now!
In such a short period of time, half of the man's body had already turned into bones, densely packed rats crawled on the fuzzy flesh and blood, green eyes gleamed fiercely, and the whole place was filled with the sound of gnawing, hissing, Extreme rage.

Some mice even crazily got into his mouth and gnawed his tongue; got into his eye sockets and ate his eyeballs; finally got into his ears.

People let out horrified laments, such a cruel sight was even too nauseating, making countless goose bumps all over the body.

Baili Jiuge stretched out his hand to hold his heart, turned his eyes away, and kept telling himself: Calm down, you must be calm, if there is a law, there will be a break, and you must not shrink back!
At this time, several people were overly frightened, screaming and ran back to the stairs, and rushed back to the first floor as if fleeing.

This shocked Baili Jiuge and shouted, "Don't go back!"

But she couldn't stop those people, she could only let it go. After a while, the screams came from the first floor, and then stopped abruptly.

Everyone came to the stairs and looked towards the first floor.At this look, everyone gasped fiercely.

It never occurred to them that the few people who fled back to the first floor were actually pinched to death by a nail board that came out of nowhere!The two nail boards are inlaid with rows of thick nails, sandwiching them into minced meat!

"God...God..."

Cruel deaths came without warning, time and time again, and finally some people couldn't bear it anymore.

"This is hell, hell on earth..." Kneeling on the ground collapsed, his eyes were already covered with red threads of fear, and he kept shouting: "Oh my god! I don't want to go any further, I don't want any longevity Not old anymore, no more!"

Baili Jiuge took a deep breath, her lungs were cold, she tried to keep calm, and persuaded: "You can't be afraid of death, you have to move forward, if you stay here, I'm afraid it won't be long before you get along with me." They are the same."

She pointed to the few people who died tragically in the splint downstairs.

"Now, do you still see it? This Tower of Nine Deaths, as long as you enter it, you have to go up. The so-called 'Nine Deaths and a Lifetime', the ray of life is at the top of the tower, except for the top of the tower. A dead end."

The emotions of the crowd were too difficult to appease, and another person stood up in a panic, and actually practiced lightness kung fu, soaring up, wanting to fly directly to the opposite bank without touching the iron pipe.

However, just halfway through the flight, two huge wooden hammers suddenly flew out from the walls on both sides, swinging from side to side, and one of them hit the man's stomach fiercely.

"Ah!" He screamed and fell down.Before the body completely fell into the rat pool, the rats jumped up and gnawed frantically.

The shrill scream seemed to be cut off, and a moment later, there was another bloody corpse in the rat pool.

The mice stared at it more greedily, waiting for food to fall again.

Baili Jiuge couldn't look directly at such a cruel situation. He clenched his fists, closed his eyes, and used all his mental strength to regain the state of meditation.

Thinking about it carefully, the iron pipe is hot, so you must not be able to go away; and if you practice lightness kung fu, you will be smashed into the rat pond by the hammer... Is there any way to prevent the iron pipe from getting stuck, and not to touch it? Hit with a mallet...

At this time, Ziqi suddenly jumped up and shouted: "Sister Heifeng, I have an idea!"

Baili Jiuge looked at her quickly, "Ziqi, tell me." It happened that he hadn't thought of a method yet, and it would be best if Ziqi's method was feasible.

Ziqi said: "The silver thread in our Epiphyllum Valley is made of snow silk, which is not only tough, but also not afraid of high temperature. So I can build a bridge with Mingning ten thread, so that I don't have to go through the hot pipe!"

good idea!A look of joy appeared on Baili Jiuge's face. After thinking for a while, he said, "Brothers, who is good at throwing knives? I can help Ziqi build a bridge together."

The men looked at each other in blank dismay. Although they had their own ghosts, they knew clearly that they still needed to rely on Baili Jiuge and Ziqi right now.

Someone stood up and said, "I will do this." After that, he pulled out two throwing knives from his boots, and with enough energy, he threw the two throwing knives out one after another, and inserted them precisely on the floor on the opposite bank. .

Baili Jiuge gestured to Ziqi.Ziqi nodded, a few thin silver threads flew out from a pair of small hands, stretched straight to the opposite bank, and tightly tied the handles of the two flying knives.

In view of Ziqi often messing up things due to carelessness, Baili Jiuge specially added: "Remember to tie the knot, and tie the knot tightly. Don't let the thread loose after a while."

Ziqi stuck out his tongue, and said with a weird smile: "Sister Heifeng, thank you for saying such a sentence, I really forgot to tie the knot just now!"

Baili Jiuge couldn't help laughing, although he knew that Ziqi was a disservice, but at this moment, the two were in this frightening situation, supporting each other, and their hearts were full of trusting warmth.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and the smiles on each other dazzled the eyes of those desperadoes.

They couldn't figure out why they could still laugh so fearlessly in this hell on earth?What state of mind do they have...

"Brothers." Baili Jiuge's clear voice sounded, "The bridge has been built. I'm here to help Ziqi stabilize the silver line. You go there first."

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and those selfish thoughts reappeared in their hearts, only thinking that they must be the first to rush up to meet the gods... So under the "bravery" of one of them, the others also set foot on the silver line one after another, and the journey was safe. Went to the other side without incident.

When the last person landed safely there, Ziqi's hands and ten fingers were already dripping with blood.

She held onto the silver thread tightly, and said: "Sister Heifeng, you go there first, and then help me, I'm sure I can go there safely."

"Okay." It's not too late, since Ziqi said she can do it, then do as she says.

Baili Jiuge lightly stepped on the silver thread, flying like clouds and flowing water, and flew towards the opposite bank, only thinking of going faster, so as not to let Ziqi's hands suffer any more pain.

But just when Baili Jiuge was about to reach the other side, a man with a double chin suddenly ran out of those men and pulled out the two knives stuck in the floor!
This scene scared the two of them out of their hearts, and the originally stable cable bridge suddenly collapsed because of the lack of anchors.

And Baili Jiuge, so caught off guard, fell into the rat pool!
