Volume 1: The Jianghu is the main thing, who is the guest? Chapter 35: Trap
"There's actually a secret passage. It's true that a cunning rabbit has many burrows."
Li Muchan walked to the place where Yang Tian was previously, and his dark eyes quickly scanned all the places around him where there might be hidden mechanisms.
But there was nothing on all sides.
At the same time, outside in the snowy night, there were sounds of killing, screams, sounds of fleeing, and urgent cries for mercy, men and women, old and young, getting closer and closer.
In this case, Shangguan Xiaoxian must have been defeated.
But defeat does not mean losing.
Li Muchan's expression also became nervous. He looked at the tiles on the ground, bent over and pressed them quickly with his hands and feet. Yang Tian had collapsed to the ground before, so if there was a mechanism somewhere, it could only be these tiles.
But he suddenly hesitated again, his eyes uncertain.
wrong.
What if this isn't a secret passage, but a dead end filled with hidden weapons?
Moreover, some of these floor tiles are cast in gold, but Shangguan Xiaoxian hid mechanisms inside them, which was clearly intentional.
Is this a trap?
Against whom?
There is no need to think too much, it must be used to deal with those dragon heads.
He hesitated in his heart, but his hands and feet pressed down faster because the sound of fighting outside was getting closer and closer.
Li Muchan's eyes, which were like ghostly fire, had turned a little red, sweat appeared on his forehead, and his heartbeat in his chest and abdomen was becoming more and more intense.
Click!
Suddenly, his right hand sank, and a crack appeared on the ground.
"If it's real, it's fake. If it's fake, it's real... never mind!"
Li Muchan's eyes were sinister and his face was cruel. He thought that he had no choice but to risk his life. If he jumped down, there might be a glimmer of hope for survival. If he stayed there, he would die.
Fight! !
Before jumping in, he suddenly seemed to remember something, and walked quickly to the bodies of Lu Di and Taoist Yuxiao, took out two secret books from their arms, then opened the secret passage without hesitation and jumped in.
As the secret door closed, Li Muchan's mind instantly tensed to the extreme. He was falling rapidly and stretched out his hand to explore. The walls on all four sides were very smooth and it was difficult to exert force.
“Hmm!”
Without hesitation, his Adam's apple moved and he took a deep breath, slowing down his falling speed. With his right hand, he used his Great Searching Hand and the finger strength he had condensed in recent times to grab at the wall on one side with a ferocious and brutal look.
In an instant, even through the gloves, Li Muchan felt a piercing pain along his fingers sweeping through his body, causing the muscles in his cheeks to twitch constantly; but under the force of his fingers, the originally smooth wall had been buckled into by three of his fingers, and his body was immediately suspended in mid-air.
At this time, Li Muchan carefully looked at the secret passage in the excruciating pain.
The secret passage was pitch black, and he couldn't tell whether it was round or square. He reached out with his other hand but could not reach the other three walls. But at the end of the secret passage, that is, below, Li Muchan looked down and actually saw some very faint light.
The outline of the secret passage also appeared, about ten feet square, square in shape, and going straight downwards.
"At least twenty feet deep."
After secretly estimating it in his mind, Li Muchan took another deep breath, loosened three fingers of his right hand, and floated straight down.
But after falling only three feet, he grabbed the wall with his right hand again. For a moment, veins on his arm bulged and his blood rushed. Li Muchan was in so much pain that he broke out in a cold sweat, but his eyes were calmer than ever before.
With his current skills, three meters would be a sure thing. If it were deeper, the impact of the fall might be difficult to delay, and he might fall down.
Moreover, he also had to be wary of Yang Tian. If this man was not dead and he was attacked unexpectedly, he would die with regrets.
After taking a short breath and not caring about anything else, Li Muchan repeated the same trick for the third time and jumped down.
While falling, he also noticed that the substance smeared on the wall was extremely smooth, like oil but not oil, like ointment but not ointment; if he had not been unsure, Li Muchan would have used the dagger on his body for leverage, but if it was really a trap, this thing could potentially take his life.
After falling five times in a row, Li Muchan finally saw what the light below was.
It turned out to be a glowing strange stone.
On all sides of the strange stone, rows of terrifying nail boards had already been laid out. They were shaped like bamboo shoots, at least one or two feet long, and each one was extremely sharp, flashing with cold light, which made Li Muchan's scalp numb.
And the "Flying Fox" Yang Tian was lying quietly on it at this moment. He was deader than dead, with holes all over his body, and the blood under his body had dyed the nail board red.
Li Muchan stepped carefully on the corpse, looked around, and couldn't help but frown; because this was actually a seemingly simple trap, with only an entrance but no way out.
But is this really the case?
Of course not.
He saw the clue at a glance.
Too deep.
If there are hundreds of ways to kill someone, this method is undoubtedly the dumbest.
Besides, why would it take so much effort to kill someone? With Shangguan Xiaoxian's skills and scheming, she definitely has methods that are hundreds or thousands of times more vicious than this.
If it were someone else, Li Muchan might not have been suspicious, but there was nothing he could do. He had seen and tried Shangguan Xiaoxian's methods and knew this woman, this enemy, very well.
He did not dare to hesitate and quickly groped and observed at the bottom.
Judging from the time, those Qinglong Society disciples have probably already broken into the "Fugui Courtyard" and may have discovered a room full of gold. It is only a matter of time before they discover this trap and secret passage.
By then, you will be smashed to death.
really.
As soon as this thought popped up in his mind, he heard a shrill scream coming from above his head, and then the object fell dangerously in front of him, like a ripe red fruit, hitting the nail board heavily, and the splattered blood splashed all over Li Muchan's face.
Then came the second, the third, and the fourth.
The four people fell down almost at the same time and all died on the spot.
Li Muchan's fingers trembled, his expression was no longer calm, his breathing was rapid, his face was pale, and his eyes were red like two drops of wet blood. In the dim light, he was desperately searching for any possible way to survive or any clues.
"ah!"
There was another, rapid scream that became sharp and short, disappearing in a flash.
Then the man fell to his right side and his head exploded on the spot.
Li Muchan's body trembled again, and his fingers caressed the wall, inch by inch...
But it seems like it's too late.
This time more people jumped down.
These people thought they had good martial arts skills and could use the force to move around, but their faces changed when they touched the wall. They became flustered and tried their best to do what Li Muchan had not dared to do before.
But someone raised his hand and shot out several pistols, trying to nail them into the wall to gain leverage.
However, the moment the gun tip hit the wall, a spark suddenly lit up, and then quickly spread like wildfire, turning into a ball of overwhelming fire that swept the entire trap. The man was set on fire in mid-air and let out a heart-wrenching scream.
Li Muchan's face suddenly turned pale.
"Where's the exit? There must be an exit... Hmm..."
Suddenly, he looked at his finger and saw an ant stuck on it.
Where do the ants come from?
Li Muchan was so shocked that he didn't even raise his head. He stared at the wall he had just touched, then gritted his teeth and ran into it...
The bear fire roared down, dyeing the entire trap a fiery red, and a fierce roar of shock and anger came from the trap.
"ah!"
Outside the trap, a group of Qinglong Society disciples who were searching for gold and silver saw the ground beneath their feet suddenly bulge up at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then what came into view was a gushing red flame.
"boom!"
…
