Volume 3 Snow Mountain Ice Palace Chapter 223 It turned out to be you

Jack stood in the middle of the two large footprints and tried to shake the boulder, but his face was so red that it could not shake the boulder in the slightest.

In the end, it was the iron bull who had enough strength to pick up the boulder, and Poplar seized the opportunity to help.

In addition, the Red Gate Lord was already convinced that as long as the stone slabs around the boulder were not pried, the help of others would not cause the entrance of the tomb to collapse.

So after Poplar helped Iron Bull lift the boulder, the others immediately helped from both sides to lift the boulder to one side, revealing the round tomb below.

Li Jianjun once again admired the strength of the Iron Bull, and Jack was also unable to swallow the bridge, and he couldn't help but admit that the strength of the Iron Bull was indeed much stronger than him, a strong man in Europe and the United States.

Bai Yang cautiously explained to Chu Mingyu and Jack that they couldn't make mistakes at every step of the way, otherwise the flames would erupt and burn everyone to charcoal.

Chu Mingyu was also frightened, and hurriedly nodded his head to show obedience.

It was still the Lord of the Red Gate who went down first, and made sure that the mark left last time was not destroyed, and the others went down to the tomb in turn.

The charred body of the elder of the Seven Brothers Gang was still lying on the spot, and the marks left before were indeed intact, which made Bai Yang and the others feel suspicious again.

Who had brought the boulder back to the entrance of the tomb? If this person hadn't even gone down to the tomb to take a look, why did he have to go to such great length?

Hongxing suddenly thought of something and said, "Could it be that we came down, but someone moved that boulder back and blocked the entrance of the tomb again?"

Her words sound heart-wrenching, but what she says is not completely impossible.

Poplar had the intention to let Chu Mingyu and Jack go up to guard the entrance of the tomb, but Chu Mingyu resolutely refused.

In the end, the Red Gate Lord said: "It is by no means an easy task to move that boulder back to its original position! We have already walked nearly half of the distance before, and this time we speed up, as long as we can get out in two or three hours, there should be no problems!"

A few people had no choice but to follow the advice of the Red Gate Lord and speed up and move forward.

Several of the mechanisms behind it had been destroyed before, and several people passed smoothly through the hole in the ground that had been smashed open by the orb, and reached the extremely dangerous stone steps.

Chen Baitong's body was still lying at the end of the stone steps, although it could not be seen from the top of the stone steps, but a foul smell came to his face, and it was obvious that Chen Baitong's body had begun to decompose.

But in order to make Chu Mingyu and Jack more cautious, Bai Yang still poked heavily at the third stone step with the tip of the black sword.

The spikes hidden in the walls on both sides immediately stretched out, and then quickly retracted into the wall, so startled that Chu Mingyu opened his mouth wide and couldn't close it for a long time.

And the last time I came, the "woman in black" once wrote down in detail in a small notebook which stairs could be stepped on and which stairs could not be touched. The Lord of the Red Gate took out the little book from his bosom, and she still walked in front, and the others followed closely.

Bai Yang walked at the end and found that Chu Mingyu's skills were indeed good, and he was really on par with Hongxing.

And that Jack is even more flexible, he obviously has not practiced Chinese martial arts, but between his jumps, his body's agility and coordination are not worse than the "light skills" in Chinese martial arts. In some ways, such as impromptu play, it is even more difficult than light.

So after passing the stone steps, Poplar asked Jack what kung fu he had practiced and why he was so agile and flexible.

Before Jack could answer, Chu Mingyu opened his mouth and said with a smile: "He has practiced parkour since he was a child, and he can rank in the top ten among the parkour masters in the United States!"

It was the first time for Bai Yang and the others to hear the term "parkour", and they couldn't help but look at each other.

Li Jianguo opened his mouth and asked, "What is parkour, what kind of kung fu is that?"

Chu Mingyu didn't know how to explain it himself, so he said for a long time: "To put it simply, he can run in the streets and alleys, even between high-rise buildings!"

When Poplar heard her say this, he suddenly remembered something.

When I was in the Crescent Spring before, a pair of masked men and women sneaked into the Crescent Spring one night, and the man used a very peculiar kung fu to jump and run between the ancient buildings of the Crescent Spring.

That man, could it be that he also practiced parkour?

But the so-called "parkour" is unheard of in China......

He remembered again that the man had a gun, but he only fired at the ground, obviously not wanting to hurt him.

And the woman, when she was leaving, turned around and smiled at him. It felt as if they had sneaked into the Crescent Spring, not to steal anything, but just to play a joke on him.

At that time, Poplar was puzzled, and he couldn't figure out who this man and woman would be, but now-

"It's you!" Poplar blurted out.

"What?" Chu Mingyu was slightly stunned.

"Two months ago, in Crescent Spring, a man and a woman sneaked into an ancient building complex with their faces covered and fought with me.

Chu Mingyu and Jack looked at each other, Chu Mingyu laughed out loud and said, "I'm sorry, you found out?"

"Why are you doing this?" said Poplar frowned.

"It's just a joke with you!" Chu Mingyu hurriedly explained, "You defeated Max that day, Jack was a little unconvinced, and he also wanted to fight with you! But I fought with you openly, I was afraid that I would lose face if I lost to you! It just so happened that I heard my uncle tell a lot of stories about ancient Chinese chivalrous warriors, and I also wanted to wear a night suit to act as a hero, so I quietly went to Crescent Spring with Jack! We didn't dare to destroy any ancient relics of Crescent Spring, and we didn't dare to be too rude to you, so you have a lot of adults, so don't take it to heart!"

She looked at Poplar with a coquettish smile, and her expression even had a hint of coquettishness.

That made Poplar very uncomfortable, so he could only turn his face away and stop talking to her.

And then there was the round house with small balls.

The last time I came, Poplar had broken the trap, and the little balls in the house had retracted into the roof.

But now that the small balls were hanging again, it was conceivable that the stone door leading to the white mist filled the large space had been closed again.

Li Jianjun saw those small round balls at a glance and immediately understood that they must be a strange mechanism, so he turned around and asked what to do next.

Poplar was about to answer, but Jack squeezed over, also glanced at the door, and then made a frightening motion.

With a crowbar in his hand, he reached into the door and flicked the ball.

Poplar glanced at him, and was so frightened that he quickly pulled him back, and shouted at the same time, "Everyone retreat!"

I heard a "whoosh" sound, as if it was raining heavily in the house.

A pungent smell rushed into the nostrils, forcing several people to continue backing away.

There was originally a decomposing corpse of Chen Baitong at his feet, but the pungent smell covered up the smell of rancid smell in that instant.

"It's ...... Strong acid?"

Chu Mingyu blurted out, but his voice was blurred, obviously covering his mouth and nose with his hands.

Several people were all frightened, and Jack, especially Jack, was even more pale and dumbfounded.

Bai Yang was very annoyed and said, "There are mechanisms in this big tomb every step of the way, so you can't move around casually, why don't you listen?"

Jack knew that he was wrong, and if Poplar hadn't pulled him back, the top of his head and face would probably have been sprayed with strong acid, so he opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't dare to argue with Poplar.

"These little black balls, look at ...... It's pretty cute, how could it be...... So scary, then how can we get by?" Chu Mingyu asked, which can be regarded as relieving Jack.

Bai Yang didn't answer, he had already studied Ouyang Qi's "Secret Technique", so he didn't immediately turn his head to ask the Red Door Master, but waited for a while, the pungent smell gradually slightened, and then he looked carefully into the round room.

The overhead lamp reflected the scene in the room, and he found that the little black balls were still hanging up and down in the room, and even the surface was still smooth and clean, as if it had not been contaminated with the strong acid above.

On the contrary, on the ground, which was originally flat and smooth, now there are scars, obviously corroded by the strong acid just now.

Bai Yang looked back at the Red Gate Lord and asked, "This mechanism shouldn't have changed, right?"

The Red Gate Lord also looked inside and said, "Shouldn't be, it seems that you still have to go in and disarm this mechanism!"

Poplar nodded, but didn't dare to go in immediately.

Hongxing immediately understood what he was afraid of, and quickly took out a handkerchief from his body, threw the handkerchief into the round house first, and then asked Tie Niu to use a crowbar to drag the handkerchief back and forth on the scarred ground a few times, and then looked at the handkerchief carefully, and said: "The handkerchief is dry, and the strong acid has been sucked dry by the ground!"

Bai Yang smiled at her gratefully, and couldn't help but explain to Chu Mingyu: "Miss Chu, please take care of this foreigner, don't let him walk around, let alone touch anything!"

Chu Mingyu knew that Bai Yang was actually explaining to her, but he didn't feel uncomfortable, but instead smiled and said, "Don't worry! I've already been frightened, and he won't dare to let him move around now!"

Bai Yang turned his face back and looked at Li Jianjun again.

Li Jianjun understood what he meant, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will watch them!"

Poplar let out a sigh of relief and cautiously walked into the round room.

The last time he entered the house, he didn't know what would happen when he touched the ball, and although he was nervous, he wasn't very afraid.

This time, I was afraid that there would be strong acid rain on the top of my head, which was more painful than being burned and stabbed with a knife.

So much so that the intense sense of fear almost made him stiffen, and he had to stand between the balls for a while, and when he was relaxed, he dodged the small balls again and walked to the right on the opposite side of the room.
