Chapter Eighty-Six: Confrontation

In all fairness, Lu Xinyao's process of touching the gun from Li Yong's corpse and hiding the gun was very secretive, if I hadn't happened to see it, I would never have doubted her identity, I was just deliberately angry with her by saying this.

Lu Xinyao said with a cold face: "You debunked me without even figuring out my identity, aren't you afraid that I am in the same group as Ito Akikawa?"

I responded with a smile, "If you were an accomplice of Akikawa Ito, Scar wouldn't have deceived me with your image." Accomplices should hide from each other and not reveal their identities. I think that the same hallucination should have appeared in Ye Xun's eyes at that time. ”

Ye Xun said lightly: "That's right. ”

I looked at Lu Xinyao: "Scar is also suspicious of your identity, he is just deliberately reminding Ito Akikawa." By the way, you haven't said who you are. ”

Lu Xinyao said: "I belong to the national security department. There's only so much to tell you. ”

I was slightly stunned, and Lu Xinyao gave me a blank look: "You are a security department and all of you eat dry food? So many people from the Ito family suddenly entered the northeast, will we not be aware of it? I came here this time just to find out the purpose of the Ito family. If they're just here for tourism or investment, my role will always be as a translator, and if they do something that endangers national security, we'll take action. ”

I glanced at Ye Xun quietly before saying, "What are you going to do now?"

"In Pingtianhai, we can't contact the outside world, and we can only rely on ourselves now. I didn't say anything when Lu Xinyao spoke, but she seemed to see my thoughts, "Are you thinking about how to get rid of me?"

"Hehe...... I can only hide my embarrassment with a dry smile. I was really thinking about how to get rid of Lu Xinyao just now, after all, I still have a butt of shit that hasn't been wiped clean.

Lu Xinyao changed the topic in time: "Are you sure of the duel with Ito Akikawa?"

"Who said I'm going to fight him?" I smiled, "I'm going to get out." Dueling them for the Golden Mask was not a wise choice, and it was only right to get out of here. ”

"You...... Okay!" Lu Xinyao was stunned for a moment before saying, "We have been searching here for many days without finding an exit, where do you want to get out from?"

"Follow me. "When I was talking to Lu Xinyao, I was already out of Ito Akikawa's line of sight. I glanced behind me, and immediately quickened my pace and rushed through the Hall of Justice to the cliff behind the cottage.

At this time, the sky is close to the middle of the night, the sky that has not been polluted by industry in Pingtianhai is unusually clear, half of the moon is like a scimitar pressed on the peak of the stone cliff, the cold moonlight pours down the mountain stone, and the half of the stone wall is painted with a strange cold glow, at first glance, it seems that the jade carved from the ice of ten thousand years is erected between heaven and earth.

I quickly walked to the edge of the cliff: "Look and see if there are any hidden passages or anything like that." ”

"You say there's a mechanism here?" Lu Xinyao said in surprise, "But ...... here"

"I don't have time to explain now, hurry up and find out. "I groped back and forth along the cracks in the cliff for a long time, but I didn't find anything out of the ordinary.

Ye Xun also shook his head slightly and said, "Nothing, are you mistaken?"

"Probably not. I pointed to the crack in the stone where I had found Liuzi's clothes, "Look at this location." At the beginning, I found the remnants of Liuzi's clothes here. At that time, we were still speculating whether Liuzi had gotten into the cracks in the stones. ”

"And, you see," I said......, pointing to the top of the cliff, "the sun is right above the cliff during the day, and the moon is ...... same at night."

"That's not right!" Ye Xun said urgently, "You are mistaken. The sun and moon both move, and it is impossible to stay in one place indefinitely. It was noon that day when we saw the sun, what time is it?"

It dawned on me and said, "Look for it." ”

After Ye Xun and I dispersed, we quickly found several stone troughs in the shape of human faces on the nearby mountain wall. Lu Xinyao stroked the groove with his hand and said, "This is the place where the golden mask is placed?"

"It should be. I frowned, "If I'm not mistaken, the Golden Mask is the key to unlocking the Secret Realm." ”

Lu Xinyao asked rhetorically: "Since Ito Mingchuan has the key in his hand, why doesn't he go in, but instead go around the periphery of the cottage?"

"I don't know. I said in a deep voice, "I'll try, you two step back." ”

Ye Xun and Lu Xinyao cautiously stepped aside, and when I was a child, I grabbed my mask and pressed it into the groove.

The golden mask had just been embedded in the stone trough, and the moonlight shining on the stone cliff suddenly sank several meters, connecting with the flowing golden light on the mask. The light on the mask was like melted gold water surging in all directions along the stone lines, and only a moment later, a layer of cobweb-like golden lines was lifted on half of the mountain wall, and the golden mask attached to the middle of the stone cliff began to split in half from the center of the brow without warning, and suddenly fell to the ground.

"What's going on?" I exclaimed, but the explosion of the mask was like a signal, and the stone dust covered by the golden mangs exploded one after another after the mask hit the ground, and between the palm-sized stones falling from the mountain wall, a pitch-black tunnel also appeared in front of us.

No wonder all the people with the golden masks are wandering around the cottage, no wonder Ito Akikawa knows that the duel is deceitful, and he will let me leave with confidence, no wonder Rokuko wants to stuff his clothes in the cracks of the stone wall...... It turned out that they were all waiting for someone to open the passage.

I shone my flashlight into the cave and hesitated for a few seconds before saying, "Let's go in first." Ye Xun, you go in first to explore the way, and Lu Xinyao and I will break off. ”

I don't know how long the tunnel is, but from the distance I have seen from the past flashlight, the front of the tunnel has always been a straight line, and the width is so narrow that only one person can pass through. If Ito Akikawa had been allowed to hold the entrance to the tunnel, they wouldn't need to use any advanced weapons, as long as a few 38 big covers were shot at the same time, it would be enough to pierce all of us.

If we all enter the tunnel, we will be killing ourselves.

I left Lu Xinyao behind and let Ye Xun go over to explore the way, not because she was a girl, but because Lu Xinyao was the best marksman among us, and only with the cooperation of the two of us could it be possible to continue to deal with Ito Akikawa.

As I pulled out the box cannon to check the bullets, there was a sound of footsteps in the direction of the cottage, and my heart suddenly felt awe--listening to the footsteps, the number of people rushing over far exceeded the number of twenty, and at least fifty people went up.

I took a few steps to grab the back of the stone mound not far from the cave before I asked urgently, "Lu Xinyao, how many samurai are from the Ito family?"

Lu Xinyao was also stunned: "Our initial intelligence was only thirty people. Could it be that someone else has quietly entered the country again?"

Lu Xinyao's speculation may not be wrong, but the only thing that can give us the answer at that time is the opponents who flocked to us.

The structure of this cottage is wide on the outside and narrow on the inside, and the cliff behind the cottage from the gate to the cottage is like an upside-down gourd. The Ito samurai who attacked from the outside had plenty of room to dodge and move, while Lu Xinyao and I could only be suppressed near the entrance of the tunnel. Geographically, I have already lost the advantage, if the number of people on the other side exceeds fifty again, how long can Lu Xinyao and I hold them back?

In just a moment, the black pressed figures gathered from all directions, and the muzzles of guns with bayonets pointed murderously at the entrance of the cave, and Lu Xinyao and I stood up from behind the rocks at the same time and opened fire on the Ito Takeshi repeatedly. The moment the hot shells flew out of front of my eyes, the fire snake sprayed by the Type 38 rifle roared. The bullets whizzed past me, and Lu Xinyao kicked me sideways, and several bullets flew over my head as I knelt uncontrollably on the ground.

I broke out in a cold sweat. The fire snake that burst out from the two guns in Lu Xinyao's hand was emptied in that instant, and under the cross-dancing line of fire falling like rain, Lu Xinyao reflexively jumped behind the stone pile. As soon as her body hit the ground, she shouted, "You are stupid!

I've ever shot a fixed target, but I've never experienced a real shootout. After I locked on to the target just now, my eyes moved with the other person, and I almost forgot that there was a danger around me. If Lu Xinyao hadn't given me a kick, I would have died by now.

I gave Lu Xinyao a thumbs up, but the latter said, "There are too many of them, we can't win." I'll hold them back, and you go first. ”

As soon as Lu Xinyao finished speaking, he stood up again, and between the broken steps under his feet, he kept firing with guns in both hands, screaming one after another on the opposite side, and there were also earth and rocks flying near Lu Xinyao. The bullets whistling in the sky danced wildly next to Lu Xinyao, but she seemed to be walking in the rain of bullets, her face was fearless.

But I know that Lu Xinyao seems to be relaxed, but in fact, there are dangers around him, and he will be shot and fall to the ground if he is not careful. I was about to raise my gun to help Lu Xinyao share the firepower, * the sound of piercing the sky suddenly came through the air, and the direction in which the cannonball fell happened to be by Lu Xinyao's side.

"Be carefulβ€”" I roared and jumped up, like a tiger crossing a stream, and pounced on Lu Xinyao a few meters away. The moment I flew through the air, I distinctly felt a few bullets flying past me. Before the whistling of the bullets dissipated in my ears, I had already thrown Lu Xinyao to the ground and pressed her tightly under me.

The moment I held Lu Xinyao down, there was a "bang" sound in my ears, and a * that fell to the ground rolled straight to me in the corner of my eye.

In the next moment, Lu Xinyao and I had to be blown up in the air by cannonballs and blown to pieces.

In the blink of an eye, only one thought crossed my mind: if I could run, one would count as one.

I grabbed Lu Xinyao's clothes with both hands, threw her into the distance, and turned over myself to suppress the cannonball.
