Chapter 86: Changes in the Armpits (I)
One in front and one behind, Jiang Xian chased the figure in front and rushed down the safety passage quickly. However, one was old and the other was young, and the other had just been discharged from the hospital, so the figures of the two sides were rapidly approaching.
When Jiang Xian was only two meters away from the other person, the old man's figure tilted and quickly collapsed.
Jiang Xian cursed inwardly, rushed over and twisted the other person's head. His wrinkled face was already covered in blood. It was obvious that the other person had committed suicide by taking poison.
"Damn it!" He ran his hands into his black hair, combed it fiercely, and then rushed out of the passage. However, as soon as he went out, he was greeted by a row of black gun muzzles.
Shenzhou has responded... Such a fast speed... This was Jiang Xian's first thought. He instinctively looked around . He didn't know when the door of Shenzhou was closed. It was lunch time, and the antique company, which was usually deserted, was even more deserted. The only front desk, lobby, etc. were already being interrogated nearby. While Jiang Xian was looking around, Song Yunshen's voice rang out: "Put down the gun, Mr. Jiang is not an enemy."
Song Yunshen was in the center of the crowd. As soon as he finished speaking, the secretary whispered, "But..."
"No buts. Mr. Jiang has just joined Shenzhou and hasn't even signed a contract with us. He doesn't know the core secrets of the underground treasure vault at all." Song Yunshen said with a sullen face, leaving no room for doubt, and then nodded to Jiang Xian: "Mr. Jiang, please follow me."
He did not take the elevator, but walked to a room next door. The security guard was standing at the door. As soon as he sat down, the assistant immediately took out a computer and placed it on the desk. The screen on it showed...Inside the treasure house, six masked men in black were cutting the door of the treasure room at full speed with electric welding guns!
Jiang Xian's eyes twitched fiercely. He didn't expect that there would be someone so bold as to dare to make trouble for Shenzhou!
"The power system in the basement was paralyzed for a minute just now." Song Yunshen raised his head and looked at Jiang Xian deeply: "I immediately activated the backup power supply and mobilized the surveillance footage of the entire building. We all saw what you and Miss Lin did. I believe you."
His words were very calm, but Jiang Xian was sitting opposite him, and he could feel... beneath the other party's seemingly calm words, there was a tsunami-like anger hidden!
This is a slap in the face of China.
This was a formal fight with Song Yunshen! And it was on China's home turf!
"The power access point of the treasure room is a top secret of Shenzhou. We... have a traitor." Song Yunshen leaned back on the sofa and sneered, "Now, compared with others, Mr. Jiang, who has just joined and is highly skilled, is more trustworthy. Therefore, I can tell you frankly that the Shenzhou treasure system is connected to a military line. The advantage is that if something happens to the Shenzhou treasure house, the army will know immediately - there is a company coming over now. But the disadvantage is... once it is maliciously damaged, it will take us 20 minutes to wait for the army to restart."
He waved his hand, and the assistant brought over a map. Song Yunshen quickly said, "We can only rely on the elevator to get into the underground. The backup power supply can be activated. But if we go down now, as long as the other party blocks the elevator door, we can only use human lives to fill it."
He pointed around the map and said, "There is a secret passage here that leads to the Yanjing drainage system. From the drainage system, you can enter various subway stations. At that time, the sky was high and the ground was far away, so it was difficult for us to catch them. Moreover, they deliberately did not alert the auction host. I must stay there."
Jiang Xian frowned. The other party was very cunning and had planned it all in advance... He must have started planning all this since the old man escaped.
The other party deliberately did not move the auction site, just to tie up some of the forces. And as long as the site does not move, Shenzhou's face will be there. They are sure that Shenzhou will be cautious. On the one hand, this shows that they know Shenzhou well - just confirms that there is a high-level insider. On the other hand, it proves that they will not set their sights on the auction items - just like Jiang Xian guessed, the other party's target is likely to be the Qin Emperor's Bone Mirror related to the clues of the immortal elixir.
There was silence for a moment. Song Yunshen licked his lips and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Jiang, please do me a favor."
"All security personnel have been assembled. In three minutes, they will all go down together."
"Even if we have to pile up people, we have to force the elevator open. The auction and exhibition are strictly censored this time, so there won't be many people who can sneak in."
"Without a lot of people, we can't guard the elevator entrance. I'm here to attract their attention." He took a deep breath, took out a magnetic card from his pocket, held it between two fingers, and looked at Jiang Xian solemnly: "And in my study, there is an elevator that goes directly to the treasure house. But... it's inside the treasure house."
The treasure house has a big door, and behind it are countless small doors distributed according to the collections - Jiang Xian had seen it last time.
"It leads to the collection room where the Qin King's Bone Mirror is stored. No one else knows about it except me and Chief Designer Long Lao!"
He pressed the card on the table and looked directly at Jiang Xian: "Mr. Jiang, if you are willing to go. No matter what the final result is, I am willing to repay this favor a thousand times! Afterwards, none of the things will be held accountable to you!"
Jiang Xian narrowed his eyes: "Is it okay to beat someone to death?"
"Of course." Song Yunshen leaned forward, suppressing his rage. His facial muscles trembled slightly with abnormal anger. "Don't worry about how many people were killed or how they died. I will take care of the aftermath! You don't have to worry about anything, just kill them all! I don't want to know where they came from, but... if they dare to come to Shenzhou, they must stay here!"
Jiang Xian nodded slightly. This was Song Yunshen's true character. He was calm in the face of chaos and ruthless in his actions. He was indeed an aristocratic seedling who had been cultivated since childhood.
"I promise you."
Song Yunshen let out a long breath and tilted his head. The secretary immediately took out a box. In the box were bulletproof vests, helmets, pistols, bullets, everything.
After putting everything away, the two of them stopped talking and quickly took the elevator to the top floor.
When I walked into Song Yunshen's office, I didn't even have time to look at the interior. He had already taken out a book from the bookcase and covered the empty space with his palm. Soon, the bookcase flipped over, revealing the silver-white elevator space inside.
This elevator has only one button, -1.
As the elevator door closed, the feeling of weightlessness came over him like a tide. Jiang Xian took a deep breath quickly to make himself reach the peak of his energy. At the moment the elevator opened again, he rolled out.
At the same time, a strong wind blew from the side, so fast that it could be described as lightning. If he walked out standing, this punch would definitely hit him in the face.
While rolling, Jiang Xian fired a volley of bullets, but he only heard the crackling sound of bullets hitting the password cabinets around him. In the corner of his vision, a figure soared into the sky like a crane, leaping nearly two meters! In the air, the body twisted like a wheel, and both hands pierced Jiang Xian's carotid artery.
This is definitely an action that can only be seen in TV dramas!
In an instant, all the nerves in Jiang Xian's body tensed up. He understood that this man was an absolute master.
Just as he was about to pull the trigger, he suddenly saw that the other party's left and right hands were not closed, but in a strange posture. As if... holding something in the air. Like a bolt of lightning passing through his mind, his hand that was about to pull the trigger stopped dead.
At the same time, his body jumped up, and with inertia, his right fist came forward without hesitation, making a sound of wind.
Boom—with a dull sound, both sides did not dodge or avoid, their fists clashed hard, Jiang Xian's mouth was crooked, and his bones were in great pain. However, the next second, the opponent's hands were like bones, winding up like a snake!
Golden Snake Silk Hand!
After the two of them tangled and separated, Jiang Xian felt a sharp pain in his right arm. At the same time, Jiang Xian seemed to be unconscious and followed the opponent's force. However, he tapped the ground with his feet, jumped into the air, and kicked straight at the opponent's face.
The cunning rabbit kicks the eagle!
The opponent had never expected Jiang Xian to change his tactics so quickly. He groaned and retreated several meters.
Only then did Jiang Xian see the other person's appearance clearly.
The man was wearing a black cape and a red Tengu mask. He was not very tall, only about 1.7 meters. His hands were covered with wrinkles from under the cape. It was obvious that he was an old man.
However, his figure didn't look old at all. The moment he retreated, he pointed his toes, spread his wings like an eagle, and swooped down on Jiang Xian's throat with his hands like hooks.
The five fingers made a whimpering sound in the air, which was a sign that the Eagle Claw Technique had reached perfection. Once caught, the skin and flesh would be torn apart. However, Jiang Xian just snorted coldly, and his body was like a sharp sword, not retreating but advancing, and rushed forward directly.
In an instant, the two men's figures almost left an afterimage. The sound of fists hitting flesh continued in the air for several minutes. The old man groaned again and flew back three meters. However, Jiang Xian did not pursue him.
"Hoo..." He slowly adjusted his breathing, and then looked at the other person with an extremely complicated expression: "Master."
"Authentic Chinese martial arts, at least several decades of immersion in Chinese Kung Fu. You must know that... young and strong are better than young."
Unexpectedly, the other party did not attack. Actually... it seemed like he was listening?
Jiang Xian smiled bitterly and said calmly: "However, you still insist on fighting me with your fists. What are you afraid of? Are you afraid of exposing your identity ?"
"I also noticed that your fists were not clenched tightly. Was it because... you used to hold something in your hands?" His smile turned bitter: "You were originally holding the Kaishan Wood and the Magic Gourd of the Exorcist, right? Second Master Long?"
"The nearly lost bone-shrinking technique... You are the one who betrayed Shenzhou, right?"
