"Torture—"

When He Chenxue's cry for help came from the depths of the labyrinth, the torture technique was stunned, looked up, and was about to leave the team after determining the direction, but was grabbed by Yan Gang, Yan Gang said: "You are crazy!?" Have you forgotten what Xiaobai said? ”

The torturer hurriedly said: "Something happened to Chenxue!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the next cry for help came again, but this time He Chenxue was called "Fan Meng", and the continuous shouts in the future were all called "Fan Meng".

Tan Tong sighed behind him, patted the torture technique on the shoulder, and said, "Do you say you're stupid?" ”

Yan Gang shook his head slightly: "It's still morning snow, morning snow, you just can't let go of it in your heart, the wood is already in the boat, the matter has become a foregone conclusion, what are you trying to save?" ”

Torture shook his head: "But I can't see death without help, right?" ”

"That's what I said, but the premise of saving people is that both myself and the other party are out of danger." Samuchuan looked around carefully from behind, "If you run towards the sound, the worst outcome is that you can't find her and you are trapped yourself, and the best outcome is that after you find her, you will be trapped together." ”

After Samuchuan finished speaking, Tan Tong continued: "And you have to keep hearing her whispering Fan Meng's name in your ear!" ”

When Tan Tong said this, he had already approached the ears of the torture technique, and then began to imitate He Chenxue's voice and shouted "Fan Meng, Fan Meng".

Yan Gang turned his head to glare at Tan Tong, who hurriedly stopped his mouth and pretended to search.

Yan Gang shook his head: "All of you are not afraid of death!" It's all like this, and I still have the heart to joke. ”

Torture smiled bitterly in the rear: "In fact, almost everyone in this team has escaped from the hands of death at least once. As he spoke, the torturer paused and said, "Everyone, I'm sorry, I hired you, and the responsibility lies with me." ”

Tan Tong and Yan Gang both looked at him with strange eyes, wanting to say something, but in the end they didn't say anything, both of them understood that the torture technique would say this completely because of the discomfort in his heart, which also meant that he was actually a little discouraged.

Tan Tong decided to divert the topic and divert the attention of the torture technique: "Torture technique, it's too strange for a maze to suddenly pop up in this place, what do you think?" ”

The torture technique followed Yan Gang and walked slowly, looking around: "From the earliest understanding of Jiacuo Fort, the purpose of Jiacuo Fort should be military, because in this environment, although it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, it should be used by strong enemies to invade and use in emergencies, but according to Yuan Zhenba's statement last night, I think this should be regarded as the holy land of the Miao people." ”

"Huh? Shrine? Why? Tan Tong asked, subconsciously glancing at Samuchuan, but Samuchuan didn't say anything, as if he didn't know what the torture technique was talking about.

The torture master told him about the existence of the three caves in the Jiacuo Palace, and Yan Gang and Tan Tong were both surprised after hearing it, but Samuchuan just frowned and seemed to be thinking about something.

Seeing his appearance, he asked, "Samuchuan, what are you thinking?" ”

Samuchuan shook his head: "It's nothing, let's go." ”

The torture technique asked again: "Samuchuan, you really don't know anything about this here?" ”

Samuchuan hesitated for a moment, shook his head, and saw that he couldn't ask anything anymore, so he had to change the topic and said: "I think this place should be the holy place of a certain Miao tribe, they hid the most precious things left by their ancestors in the Jiacuo Hall of Jiacuo Fort, which is divided into three caves. You think, the Miao people advocate silver, so the existence of the silver cave is inevitable, and the Gu poison in the Miao legend can also be attributed to the category of medical skills, that is, the medicine cave, and the rest is the jade cave, that is, the place where the jade will make a fortune. ”

After hearing this, Tan Tong thought for a while and said, "The key question is, if the three caves all exist, why didn't the Jade Casting Society discover the Jiacuo Hall back then, but only obtained so many valuable technologies after discovering the Jiacuo Fort?" ”

"I don't know." Xingshu shook his head and slowly approached one of the stone pillars, "The most important thing for us now is to find a way out of the labyrinth, the mechanisms here are all disposable, that is, if someone triggered the mechanism somewhere in the past, this mechanism will be abolished, and if someone comes later, it will be impossible to trigger it again." ”

Squatting in front of the stone pillar, standing on the side and cutting the vegetation with a mountain opener, looking at the fine holes inside, looking at the holes on the opposite rock in the direction of the fine holes, he said: "You see, this has been triggered, judging from the small holes on the opposite rock, the short arrows and other things shot by the mechanism are extremely powerful, and the designer has also calculated that after a long time, the stone pillar and the rock surface will be covered with vegetation, and the emitter of the mechanism is hidden under the vegetation, and it is impossible to see it directly when you look at it, but once you touch the mechanism, Short arrows will not only penetrate vegetation, but may even penetrate the human body. ”

Yan Gang nodded and looked around: "No wonder you can't see a single tree around, but what if you can climb to the top of these stone pillars?" ”

"You take a closer look at the top of the stone pillar, on the way over just now, I observed it carefully, most of it is covered by vegetation and I can't see it clearly, but some of it is exposed, and the top of the exposed part of the stone pillar is pointed, even if you climb up, you can't stand steadily, let alone observe the situation from a high position." ”

Samuchuan looked around with an embarrassed expression, but what the torture technique found most on his face was the word "contradiction", as if he was struggling with something in his heart.

Yan Gang threw the stone in front of him, testing the mechanism, the first few stones were thrown, and when they were thrown to one of the positions, they heard a clear sound of opportunity, and then the stone pillars on both sides cross-shot short arrows, which were directly nailed to the opposite rock.

Yan Gang cautiously touched it, pulled out one and returned it, handed it to Samuchuan, and asked, "Is this poisonous?" ”

Samuchuan sniffed it, nodded and said, "Yes, but it's just a poison on some plants, it's not fatal, but it can make people hallucinate." ”

The torture technique took the arrow and scratched it on the vegetation next to it, and after the stroke, the surface of the vegetation immediately cracked, which was enough to show that the arrow was very sharp, and the torture technique frowned when he saw this: "Something is wrong." ”

At this moment, Tan Tong, who had been observing the stone pillar and caressing it carefully, also said the same thing, and after finishing speaking, the torture technique asked, "What did you say wrong?" ”

Tan Channel: "You talk first." ”

Xingshu nodded, raised the short arrow and said: "Iron smelting technology has only made significant progress in the Han Dynasty, but the cast iron softening treatment technology and steelmaking technology could not be popularized at that time. At that time, the Miao people had already carried out the fifth great migration, that is, the last time, since then, the Miao settlement has hardly had any major changes, of course, the contact with the outside world has gradually become more frequent, although the iron smelting technology is also available, but how can it reach this level? If you look closely at this arrow, this texture, and it has not rusted for thousands of years, and it is obviously oily, it is impossible for the Miao people to do it. ”

Tan Tong nodded, thinking carefully about something.

"If I'm not mistaken, in 2010, in Xiangxi, the former capital of Yongshun Tusi Wang, Lao Sicheng, the archaeological conclusion at that time determined that this place was established in the Ming Dynasty, because there are many temples and Shinto that were only in the Ming Dynasty, but this place we are now and the place we are about to go to must be more ancient, look at this technology, at least it is the Tang Dynasty, because only during the Tang Dynasty, the Miao people in Xiangxi were called Wulingman, The imperial court was worried that sending Han Chinese to serve as officials would cause them dissatisfaction, so the official positions of assassins were set up by people such as the chiefs of the Miao tribe. ”

Yan Gang asked, "So, are you basically sure that this place was built in the Tang Dynasty?" ”

Xingshu nodded: "Before the Tang Dynasty, the Miao people did not have so frequent contact with the Central Plains, and it was impossible to obtain these techniques. ”

"I agree." Tan Tong became very serious at this time, pointing to the stone pillar and said, "Think about it, how do these organs work?" At that time, there was no modern machinery, even if it was modern machinery, even if it was under the premise of regular maintenance, it could not be broken for thousands of years. And what is the motivation? Even if it is gasoline, it has long been volatile. Therefore, when the Tang Dynasty was mentioned in the previous criminal arts, my first reaction was to use water as a driving force, and don't forget, the water conservancy of the Tang Dynasty was the most advanced in the world at that time. ”

As soon as Tan Tong said this, the torture technique suddenly remembered and asked, "Hades, you were fishing by the river yesterday, how far is that river from our camp?" What does it look like? ”

"It's a waterhole, not a river." Yan Gang recalled, "But above the pool, there is indeed a similar river, but there is very little water in it, and the flow is about the same as the stream, that is, these streams form that deep pool. ”

Tan Channel: "It seems that I have analyzed it well, and it should be using water." ”

Xingshu looked around, and suddenly lay on the ground and listened, and said for a long time: "It seems that there is really a sound of water, underground, there should be an underground river below, maybe this entire labyrinth is built on the ground of the underground river, using water as a power to drive related mechanisms." ”

After speaking, the torture technique got up, and he remembered something: "It's strange, the earliest Heaven and Earth Mansion, as well as the peerless building, plus the place where we are, are all related to water conservancy, and those organs are all driven by circulating water flow as a driving force." ”

"Yes, more importantly, Tiandifu is a product of the Bohai Kingdom, but it is related to the Khitan Kingdom, and the cave under the peerless building is also from the Khitan period, is it also related to the Khitan here?" Yan Gang looked around, "It shouldn't be, how could the Khitan come to this place at that time, it was 108,000 miles away, and it couldn't be touched by eight poles." ”

Xingshu stood there and thought quietly, and said to himself: "Bohai Kingdom, Khitan Kingdom, Tang Dynasty, Yelubei, Later Tang ......"

After a long time, the torture technique suddenly raised his head and said, "Yan Gang, do you remember?" When I was in Heaven and Earth, I once saw an incident from the reflection in the Heaven and Earth Mirror, which said that Yelubei died in Tiandifu, but later described that Yelubei left with his army, and Yelubei later fled to the Later Tang Dynasty because of his failure to fight for the throne......"

Yan Gang frowned: "You mean, these are all related to Yelubei, no, no, to the cast iron immortal who may have replaced Yelubei?" ”

Xingshu said: "Maybe, let's do this, first find the underground river, see if we can dig it down, there is a plan, the first is to walk through the underground river safely through this mechanism, the second plan is to see if we can break and destroy these mechanisms, so that we can walk in the maze, at least we don't have to worry about being killed by the mechanism." ”

After the punishment was finished, the other three immediately followed his instructions and began to look around for loose soil to dig up, but the attention of the punishment technique always fell on Samukawa's body.

……

In the new cell of the Harbin Detention Center, the originally huge prison area was divided into three by two barbed wires, with Sheng Feng living in a cell on the left and Xuan Tong living in a cell on the right, leaving a passage in the middle for prison guards to use for patrolling.

Except for the time to sleep, at other times, they can walk freely within their own range, and there is also a fixed time to go out and bask in the sun, but every time they go out, they are staggered with the time of people in other prison blocks, and each time there will be at least two prison guards and four armed police officers to follow, in case of any accidents.

Fu Mingwei sat in the monitoring room, staring at the two people in the monitoring, and in the room behind him, Chen Taidong was sitting waiting.

Although Fu Mingwei said that he was resting and arranged him inside, Chen Taidong, who had entered the interrogation room more than once, knew very well that even if there were different desks, chairs, sofas, water dispensers, and refrigerators here, the interrogation room was an interrogation room, and no matter how many things were stuffed inside, it could not change its essence.

Therefore, Chen Taidong just sat at the desk in a proper manner, flipped through the case files on the table, and looked at every word carefully.

Fu Mingwei looked at the surveillance and asked Wu Zhinan, who was also reading the file on the side: "How do you think you can get started?" ”

Wu Zhinan raised his head: "It's a bit difficult to start with them, and the easiest thing is to start from the torture technique." ”

"But we don't know where the torturer is." Fu Mingwei looked at him, "He must have gone to find something, the weasel said that if he can't find that thing, he will kill people indiscriminately, if he finds it and doesn't hand it over to him, he will do the same, we can't make much action, it's impossible to apply to the superiors and send an armed police force to search the mountain, right?" They're not fugitives either, so the focus now is on the three people in front of us. ”

Wu Zhinan looked at the surveillance: "This person called Xuan Tong didn't say anything except pleaded guilty, that Sheng Feng in addition to pleading guilty, he also decided to help us arrest the weasel, but his knowledge is also limited, on the contrary, I feel that he is seeking protection from the police, this Chen Taidong is even more interesting, although there is a stain, but it is not big, and he also took the initiative to cooperate and told us so many things, I am more worried about this Chen Taidong, because now he is in a semi-free state, and he knows so many things about the case, right, Although his superiors agreed to hire him as a consultant, did they agree to give him access to the files? ”

After Wu Zhinan asked, Fu Mingwei didn't answer, Wu Zhinan immediately understood, nodded and said, "Okay, when I didn't ask." ”

"Almost, call Chen Taidong to the prison area." Fu Mingwei picked up the walkie-talkie, "National title, let Chen Taidong go in." ”

After a long time, Dong Guozhi replied: "Team Fu, Chen Taidong has special requirements. ”

"Request?" Fu Mingwei subconsciously raised his eyes and looked at the back, it was a one-sided glass, he could clearly see Chen Taidong who was sitting inside talking to Dong Guozhi, and Wu Zhinan, who was sitting on the side of the table, also looked at it, and said in a low voice, "What is he doing?" ”

After talking with Chen Taidong for a while, Dong Guozhi looked in the mirror and picked up the walkie-talkie and replied: "He wants to put handcuffs and leg irons on him, pretending to be a prisoner arrested in the previous case." ”

"What?" Fu Mingwei got up, "You wait, I'll go over." ”

Soon, Fu Mingwei and Wu Zhinan walked to the next room, Dong Guowei opened the door and stood on the side, Fu Mingwei saw that moment, and asked, "Why?" ”

After asking, Fu Mingwei suddenly regretted it a little, because he asked "why" again.

At this time, Chen Taidong smiled, and the wrinkles on his face when he laughed were full of confidence, no, to be precise, arrogant confidence.

Wu Zhinan asked, "Mr. Chen, what do you want to do?" ”

Chen Taidong asked rhetorically: "Do you believe me?" Since you have found me, you should believe me, at least five percent, and put handcuffs and shackles on me, there is no loss to you, on the contrary, you can also restrict my movements, not worried that I will pose a threat to the two people inside, you know that I am very good at fighting, and you are also worried that I will hurt people, otherwise, why did you call this Officer Wu? ”

Fu Mingwei was stunned, he originally wanted to subconsciously go to see Wu Zhinan, but if he did, wouldn't it be equivalent to confirming that Chen Taidong's analysis was correct? But he wanted to know how Chen Taidong saw it, after all, judging from his appearance, everyone would think that Wu Zhinan was just a weak scholar, even if he was a former fighting champion, no one would believe him.

Wu Zhinan frowned slightly, and said with a smile: "You are very powerful, someone has informed you of the news?" ”

Chen Taidong said with a smile: "Officer, what are you kidding, I am a detainee, and the prison where I am located is so far away from Harbin, it is impossible for my early warning friends to care about the affairs of someone in the criminal police brigade of a certain district in Harbin, right?" I judged from your walking, breathing, waving hands, and gestures, people who practice martial arts, if you can't even see this, then you haven't even entered the door, okay, my conditions are finished, do you want to agree, you make a decision, if you don't agree, I can walk in like this, but it can't achieve too good results. ”

Wu Zhinan looked at Fu Mingwei, Fu Mingwei just turned sideways slightly and said to Dong Guozhi: "National title, go and prepare." ”

Dong Guowei was still in a daze, and after Wu Zhinan said "hey" in a low voice, Dong Guozhi reacted and immediately went out to prepare, Fu Mingwei then turned around and went out, leaving Wu Zhinan and Chen Taidong with a smile on his face.

Wu Zhinan suddenly smiled, nodded slightly, and said, "Mr. Chen, don't play tricks, if I catch you playing tricks on us, don't think about leaving the prison again." ”

Chen Taidong's eyes moved away from Wu Zhinan's face, and after waiting for Wu Zhinan to leave the closed door, he said to himself: "I originally planned to die in prison, at least the police will be sent to the end." ”

In the next room, Wu Zhinan opened the door, walked up to Fu Mingwei, who was standing in front of the one-way glass, and asked, "What do you think?" ”

Fu Mingwei just shook his head slightly, watching Dong Guozhi help Chen Taidong with handcuffs and leg irons inside, and Chen Taidong still had a smile on his face, but a few minutes later, when Chen Taidong walked out of the room and walked into the prison area, the expression on his face changed, from a smile to an arrogant ridicule, and he deliberately stopped at the door, turned his head to look at the surveillance.

Wu Zhinan frowned: "This Chen Taidong is not an ordinary person. ”

Fu Mingwei smiled.
