757 is poisoned
Drove the wooden kite all the way to a certain place in Taihang Mountain. I found the top of the back gate of the Lubanmen base camp again. The duck then told me that there was still no news from Dacao. And I can only decide to sneak through the back door to the Lubanmen base camp to find clues!
Fortunately, the back door is directly connected to the station of the five gates under the Luban Gate. Most of the disciples of the lower five sects still have a good impression of me. I guess if the people from the upper three sects hadn't ordered them to evacuate before, then these disciples from the lower five sects would definitely still be helping out at my Zhuangzi! These people are actually very grateful for their kindness! I've always been kind to me about the 'curse' they've received. Even after following the instructions of the upper three gates and breaking with me, the last time I accidentally broke into this place and met a large number of people from the lower five gates, they still helped me a lot. At least let me get out of their base camp safely!
When I came to the cave under the cliff of my memory to enter the back gate of the base camp, I realized that the last time I came there was just an accident. Now that Sensei said it was the back door, I couldn't even find a place in that cave.
Fortunately, Nie Xiaoqian was born in Lubanmen, so under her guidance, we searched all night, and only found the entrance to the cave before dawn. Nie Xiaoqian also told me that the mechanism here had been modified.
After asking, I know why it is very strange to say that it has been modified, because there is an unwritten rule in the Luban Gate, that is, all kinds of secret doors must be arranged in accordance with the rules that have been continued from ancient times to the present, even if they are discovered by the enemy, they cannot easily change the mechanism of the secret door.
Of course, another rule of Lubanmen is that information and clues about these secret passages must not be passed on. So even if it's Nie Xiaoqian, she can only take me in but can't tell me how to crack it~ Of course, in fact, looking at their various marks and secret notes, I can roughly distinguish the location of the secret passage...... I always feel that these rules are a kind of hidden danger like cocooning or self-defeating. But they have been circulating for so many years, and this rule has never changed.
Therefore, after Nie Xiaoqian found out that the secret passage here had been changed, she felt both surprised and strange......
After entering, Nie Xiaoqian took me slowly forward. On the way, she told me that all the mechanisms here had been modified, and even the way they were arranged had changed to the appearance of other sects. It looks like there are several ancient schools of thought in the arrangement of the mechanism! If it weren't for the fact that Nie Xiaoqian was one of the disciples of Tianmen who was specifically responsible for protecting the big shots, he had also specially trained them to identify the provenance of various organs. Then even an ordinary Luban disciple would accidentally step on the mechanism and trigger the alarm and encounter danger.
Even Nie Xiaoqian, who had been specially trained, accidentally stepped on a deadly mechanism. In the blink of an eye, a bunch of steel knives fell from the top of the mountain, still silent, and the scope was so large that even I was affected by Nie Xiaoqian, who was a few meters away. If it hadn't been for the duck that had been responsible for keeping us safe and following behind him to discover the crisis and summon black gravel in time to form a shield to protect several of us, it is estimated that we would all be seriously injured! Even so, I was wounded in the arm by two steel knives that didn't stop me. Nie Xiaoqian was also stabbed a few times...... Fortunately, I can use the return trip to the mall to get back to normal, and if Nie Xiaoqian is injured, although she can recover, she will have to go back to the warehouse to rest and sleep for a while.
That's why I'm back to normal. But Nie Xiaoqian could only endure the injury, and then bandaged it casually and then continued to explore the way. She would at least have to wait for the group to pass through the ambush-filled passage and enter the back door of the base camp before she could return to rest. Otherwise, if you encounter a mechanism later, it is estimated that it will alarm the people in the Lubanmen base camp!
Now although this organ is very lethal and very hidden, Nie Xiaoqian said that according to the appearance of this mechanism, it should only kill the enemy and not have the function of alarming. I have to say that this is also a kind of luck. If it were set up according to the original organs of Lubanmen, although there would not be such a hidden and deadly threat, all the mechanisms they set up had their own alarm functions. Just touch one and the alarm will propagate back......
Nie Xiaoqian endured the pain and led us on, but this time it was not only her injury that slowed down the speed of our group, but Nie Xiaoqian also studied every foothold more carefully, in case any trap mechanism was triggered. It took us almost two hours to cross what would have taken us a quarter of an hour's foot. When she saw the back door of Lubanmen, the deepest part of the cave, Nie Xiaoqian, who was physically and mentally exhausted, was almost forcibly taken back to the warehouse to rest because of physical exhaustion......
It's just that Nie Xiaoqian found that even the mechanism of the back door of Luban Gate had been changed, so she endured the discomfort. It took a lot of effort to crack the mechanism at the door. The moment the door opened, Nie Xiaoqian was brought back to the warehouse by a faint light, and then entered the stone room in the middle of the warehouse and fell into a deep sleep.
I went out of my way to take a look. Although I can't get into this stone chamber. But I could also see a very thick golden smoke drifting into the stone chamber in the gold storage not far away. If you look at it, the amount of gold that Nie Xiaoqian needs to recover this time must be not small~ So how much damage does she have to endure to be like this?
After suddenly feeling a little sorry for Nie Xiaoqian's 'professionalism', I could only stare at the stone house silently for a while, and then returned to the outside world.
Now that the pathways are open, we have to solve these things quickly!
But I have to be careful. According to Nie Xiaoqian's words, something big must have happened here. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many traps from other ancient sects that would be placed in the secret passages at the back door of the Luban Gate base camp. In addition, their habit of 'preferring to die rather than change the arrangement of the agency' has been forcibly changed. This shows that something big must have happened to Lubanmen!
It is for these considerations that it is for this reason. After I crept in, I didn't dare to go directly to the camp at the lower five gates. Instead, it wasted energy, and let the duck guarding me directly turn into a protective layer composed of black gravel, and after wrapping me layer by layer from beginning to end, it became a black fog with a pitch-black body and no body visible~ It may not be like a black fog, but it is more vivid to say that it is a black sand ball together.
This method is consuming the man's physical strength and energy all the time! But by doing so, not only can I protect my whereabouts through the black sand, but I can also move against the wall in this light-like hole** to avoid being discovered. This is also a stealth method!
In addition, the black gravel of the duck incarnated enveloped me, and the black gravel floating around me was a method of protection and attack. At that time, this method was also used as the outer armor of a car. At that time, after the gravel had wrapped up the car, we had rushed into the enemy's battle formation and passed through it unscathed.
Moreover, this gravel can also be turned into a stone and shoot out at any time, and the distance and power are very large, which can exceed the power of ordinary crossbow arrows. The only flaw is that this offensive and defensive mode consumes a lot of the duck's physical strength and its own energy every second. This skill consumes even more energy than when she summons a tornado tens of meters high!
Fortunately, there are a lot of gold reserves now, and if the duck returns to her territory to rest because of excessive consumption, there is still a mandarin duck to make up for it. That's why I had the luxury of letting her use this skill. It's not for your own safety, it's mainly that this skill can also play a role in concealing yourself. In the case of not knowing the specific situation here, it is better to be obscene. Maybe something has changed here!
Wait until I sneak up in a lewd way to the cave where I once came across the 'Senior Brother Zhang' in the lower five gates of the base camp. Just when I wanted to sneak in and try to see if I could find Senior Brother Zhang. After all, this 'Senior Brother Zhang' not only has a lot of good feelings for me and the fictitious 'Bai Yujing' behind me. It is also the next five requests to join the proposer and matchmaker on my side.
The last time I escaped from the hijacking of the three gates of the Luban Gate, I broke into here by mistake. It was when he met this Senior Brother Zhang, and then he was able to leave smoothly with the help of the other party. I also learned the secret story between the upper and lower doors of Luban. So I hurried here this time, and first asked her to explore the way and feel the situation.
But when I reached the entrances of the various caves where the Lower Five Gates lived, I was surprised to find that all the caves were sealed by a pile of green slime. Curious, I just leaned over and touched the green slime that sealed the hole, and a cold rush passed from the tip of my finger that had just touched the slime, and then a knife light suddenly appeared out of thin air, cutting off the entire right hand where I felt the slime...... I didn't even have time to cry out in the pain before I was sent back to the mall by the duck that was protecting me.
When I returned to the mall, I was surprised to find myself in a café on the first floor of the mall. This is a place that only appears after the mall is maintained, or when I am in danger of my life!
Could it be that ~ the behavior just now is already life-threatening? Or is it someone sneaking up on you from behind?
I was in the café for a full minute before I remembered that this was not the time to be in a daze, and that I had to get out and see what was going on...... Why did someone suddenly cut off an arm? I just felt like I had cut off my entire right arm from the shoulder!
Now I touch my right shoulder, and I have a lingering phantom pain in my shoulder that continues to irritate me......
"What the hell is it? Didn't you say that the duck's gravel protection could be invulnerable? I muttered a word before reaching out and pressing the mark on my chest to return to the outside world.
As soon as I came out, I looked left and right and saw that there were no enemies. It's just that where blood was originally sprayed, a pile of green slime was sprayed there. And the severed arm slowly melted into a puddle of green jelly-like mucus on the ground......
"Master, don't mess with these things, it's poisonous! If I hadn't reacted quickly, you wouldn't have been able to save you! ”
The voice of the duck came directly to my ears. Then I realized what I had just discovered......
It turned out that when I touched the green slime that blocked the hole, a strange poison emanated directly from my hand all over my body. Fortunately, the duck discovered this anomaly in time, and then without the slightest hesitation, he directly picked up a long knife discarded on the ground and cut off my right arm. After seeing that the blood spurting out of the broken arm was bright red, she quickly sent me, who was confused by this unexpected situation, and didn't even have time to feel the pain of the broken arm, back to the mall, and the mall returned to my normal state. Including the severed arm regenerated.
However, after the severed arm fell to the ground, it slowly melted into the green slime in front of him, and the blood sprayed out was also stained green after coming into contact with the green slime...... What a fierce poison!
Fortunately, the duck reacted in time, otherwise it would have been a few seconds late, and the toxin would have spread all over my body along the arm I touched, and it would have been really hopeless at that time! Although I don't know if I'll be resurrected in place because of the mall. But the cost of this resurrection is very great. And the damage from the broken arm was enough for me to appear directly in the fixed spawn area of the mall in a similar way to respawning. That's the café.
In addition, this toxin duck also reacted violently through this violent reaction, and then recalled that she had seen it in ancient times, and this thing was the legendary ancient poison 'corpse powder'! As soon as anyone touches this toxin, it will instantly turn into green slime. It doesn't matter if it's a corpse or a living person. Therefore, people in the past would use this poison to pour it on corpses and destroy corpses.
It is said that this poison was made by the master Bian Que at that time. He traveled all over the world to search for all kinds of poisons, and originally wanted to use the concept of 'fighting poison with poison' to use thousands of highly toxic ingredients to cure all kinds of poisons. But I don't know if it was a mistake or accidentally incorporating a piece of material that was made by the Jixia Academy back then, which is the reason for the fragments of the stone outside the sky. As a result, the medicine was not configured, but a poison was created that could turn any flesh into green slime.
What's even more terrifying is that this poison has only been created by Master Bian Que a little bit. However, any green slime that has been contaminated with this poison and then dried in the sun will become a new corpse powder again. Moreover, the toxicity of the new corpse powder will not be weakened at all, so that this poison will be directly spread everywhere, and it will also entrap a small country outside the territory at that time and the tragedy of a sect hiding in a hidden place......
