Chapter 400: Crossing the Knife Mountain 2
Even though I was in the water, I was frightened by the sharpness that touched my forehead.
Although I had already judged that there was a blade in front of me, I didn't expect it to be so close to me. If I hadn't stopped in time, I would have been pierced through my skull by the current.
Fortunately, my forehead only stopped with a slight touch on the blade, and I was able to escape.
Before I could figure out how to get out, the water behind me was speeding up again.
When you feel that the force of the current is gradually increasing, it means that the wave is not far from you, and when the angry wave hits, it is the real overwhelming.
I'm barely holding myself down the water by the blade of my blade. I believe in the sharpness of the sky, but I can't believe in the solidity of the walls.
Taking a step back, even if I can't cut through the wall, can I withstand the surging waves behind me? If I don't stand still, the force I have to bear on my body will not be lower than the full force of a martial arts master, and at that time, even if I don't break my tendons and fracture my bones, I will have to vomit blood from internal injuries, and the final result will be to die underwater.
The moment the force of the water behind me increased rapidly, I didn't know if it was a subconscious reaction, and I poked my foot forward. My toes were about half a meter out, but I didn't touch anything.
No blade near the bottom of the water?
The thought crossed my mind, and I didn't bother to think about anything else, so I grabbed the hilt of the knife with all my might, pulled the contemptuous sky out of the wall, crouched down, and plunged the knife into the ground.
The moment the Sky Defiant Blade sank into the ground, a huge wave also struck. I couldn't control my body anymore and immediately floated forward with the current, the only thing I could do was to hold on to the handle of the knife with both hands to keep myself from being swept away.
In just one breath, my body was stretched into a straight line by the water, and there were several crunch sounds of joints being forcibly pulled in my arms.
If the water continued, it wouldn't be long before my arm was completely dislocated from the impact of the torrent. Fortunately, the huge wave only came and went in an instant, and I gradually stabilized my body.
After the waves passed, the current in the "Lethe River" slowed down, and I tentatively opened my eyes. The first thing I saw was a gear that turned like a waterwheel.
The "Lethe River" rushed to the gears from my position to drive the mechanism. If I had just let go of my hands, I would have been stirred into the gears and turned into a pile of minced meat.
When I looked up, I saw a square secret door about a meter above my head, two feet square.
It seems that I was right at the beginning, and Daoshan is not completely rooted at the bottom of the Lethe River, but has set aside a distance. The water of the "Lethe River" rushes down from the source, and when it reaches the Daoshan Mountain, it is blocked by the wall above, and the bottom can still rush to the gears, so that the power of the river increases again, and it is just right to push the gears to keep running.
The square hole above me is probably a passage in and out of the inside of the Knife Mountain. I struggled to slowly pull out the contempt of the sky, squatted on the ground and moved to the bottom of the square hole, suddenly stood up, grabbed the inner wall of the hollow with one hand, and burrowed into the mountain of knives.
As soon as I pushed the flashlight off, a cold light shook in front of me. Countless blades were staggered in front of my eyes, and the cold light of the blades under the flashlight almost pierced my eyes.
It took me a while before I got used to it.
The mechanism that controls the sword mountain is right in front of my eyes, but I don't know where to start for a while.
When I was training, Mama Fox specially asked someone to explain the principle of the mechanism to us, but I didn't listen very carefully - I studied liberal arts for half my life, and when I heard about science, I felt that my head was as big as a fight.
With Ye Xun here, I feel that I don't need to learn those things, it is enough for him to learn more seriously than me.
At that time, I was even wondering if he was going to soak Tao Xiyu, so he craned his neck to listen to the lessons of mechanism and lock-picking.
But now I just want to give myself two mouths. The center of the mechanism is already in front of me, but I don't know how to crack it, isn't this fatal?
Later, I learned that when I was in a hurry in the secret room of the agency, Ye Xun and the others were also on the verge of life and death.
Not long after I jumped into the water, Ye Xun and the four of them grabbed the rope behind the iron claw as I said, and followed the mechanism into the air.
The Iron Claw was still moving with them from the Knife Mountain, but the Knife Mountain, which originally looked like a pyramid, suddenly cracked the moment Ye Xun approached, and exploded into eight petals in all directions like a lotus flower. Countless blades poked out of the separated petals, like grass and trees pointing straight into the sky. The entire sword mountain was like a giant beast with a bloody mouth open, waiting for the prey to fall into his hideous mouth on its own.
"Release the flying claws!" Ye Xun roared angrily, and the four of them pulled out the flying claws from their bodies at the same time and threw them into the air.
They had been prepared for the rope to break long before they grabbed it, and hung the claws on their waists in advance.
It's just that they didn't expect that the rope on their heads was not broken, but the knife mountain under their feet turned into a steel beast's mouth that had expanded several times for no reason.
Ye Xun used the flying claw to buckle the trap slide on the ceiling, and immediately changed the rope to grab the flying claw and hang it in the air.
Before the four of them could completely stabilize their figures, the iron claws hanging in the air broke one after another in an instant, like a rainstorm crackling to the ground.
The sound of iron claws smashing against the steel knife was still stirring back and forth in the tomb, but there was a sudden sound of a blade humming from the roof of the tomb. When Ye Xun looked up, four spiral knife wheels that fell from the roof of the shed spun wildly like chainsaws and pushed in their direction.
It seems that the designers had already figured out that someone would change the ropes, so they added four scoring wheels to the roof of the shed that were large enough to sweep through any cable.
Ye Xun gasped, shook off*, put on an explosive arrow, and aimed at the roof of the shed: "Shoot, knock down the knife wheel." ”
Lu Xinyao didn't use Ye Xun's orders, they had already pulled out their guns and shot at the knife wheel again and again.
Although their pistols are not as powerful as Magnum, they are standard military pistols, and it is not difficult to penetrate the iron plate when fired at close range. However, under the continuous shooting of the three people, they only saw the sparks flashing in the ceiling, but they did not see the knife wheel falling.
Although Ye Xun was holding an explosive crossbow, he didn't dare to launch it casually until he had to.
He had the same concerns I had when I was underwater—if the whole canopy was blown up, they would be torn apart by a knife.
The four knife wheels were gradually approaching, the cold sweat on Ye Xun's forehead was also constantly oozing, and the fingers holding the crossbow arrow machine spring were also trembling slightly......
At the moment when Ye Xun and several people were nervous, someone in the archaeological team who fell down earlier shouted: "The person in the back, kick him, kick the person in front, they can swing out......"
The man shouted indistinctly, but Ye Xun and the four of them all understood what the other party meant. He said: Let Lu Xinyao and the people in the back swing the rope to kick Ye Xun and the bean donkey in front.
In this way, the two of them could completely jump out of the range of Dao Mountain with the power of the rope swing, but Lu Xinyao and Suixin had to stay on Dao Mountain forever.
Lu Xinyao and Suixin didn't hesitate for even a second, and they wanted to shake the rope with their arms. Ye Xun hurriedly shouted: "Don't listen to him, we can't put it out!"
The two men hesitated for a moment, but the man shouted again, "Believe me, as long as you can swing the rope to about seventy-five degrees, the power generated will push them out." ”
"Fuck you!" Dou Donkey was also suddenly furious, "If you dare to talk nonsense again, Lao Tzu will shoot you!"
The bean donkey really pointed the muzzle of the gun at the crowd, but Lu Xinyao stopped: "Don't do it." I think he makes sense, let's try it......"
"Try bullshit!" Dou Donkey turned his head and scolded, "You two are folded here, how can we explain to Wang Huan?
"Do you still want these ......?"
When Lu Xinyao and the bean donkey were arguing, the four knife wheels were already close to Ye Xun's predetermined distance - after the knife wheel advanced one foot further, if Ye Xun didn't let go of the arrow, he wouldn't have a chance to use the explosive arrow again. Because, at that time, if he goes to blow up the wall, even he will be affected by the explosion.
Ye Xun raised his crossbow arrow and aimed at his intended position......
At that time, Ye Xun didn't know that I had already entered the center of the mechanism, but I couldn't find where the hand gate to control the mechanism was, so I didn't let the mechanism stop running.
Although I can't hear the situation outside, I also know that if I delay for a second, Ye Xun will be more dangerous.
As I said, the Jianghu people will not put their lives in the hands of others unless they have to, not to mention that the other party is still an enemy who is ready to put himself to death.
I just didn't believe that a few of us could be taken safely by Iron Claw across Knife Mountain, so I ventured into the river. If I couldn't find the switch, would there be any point in risking my life just now?
After a few spins, I gritted my teeth and walked in the direction of the gear gear, quickly digging out the clay wrapped in oiled paper from my backpack and sticking it to the shaft of the gear.
The only thing I can think of now is a spot blast. I don't believe it, the main power shaft of the mechanism is blown up, and the mechanism can still operate normally.
I quickly loaded the explosive*, withdrew more than ten paces, and shrank in the corner of the secret room and pressed the * hard. The furious flames rushed up in the direction of the main axis with a deafening roar, and the power shaft, which was a foot in diameter, broke in two sections in the explosion.
Before the smoke from the explosion cleared, a chain reaction took place in the chamber. The sound of the mechanism breaking came and went, and the sound of some parts being blown away by external forces also burst out one after another, but I didn't know how far the center of the mechanism had been destroyed by me.
I couldn't help but feel a pang of regret in my heart.
