Chapter 140: Treasure Hall
I had only walked more than 20 meters away, and it was so dark that I couldn't see my fingers, and the lights in the hall could no longer shine here. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
I took a torch out of the treasure chest and lit it, and moved on.
Seeing this, everyone behind me also lit torches, and we walked slowly in a long line, keeping a distance of about 1 meter between people.
The tunnel slopes slightly downward, and the further you go inside, the wetter it gets, and it's clear that we're heading towards the bottom of the lake.
After walking for more than half an hour, the ground tended to be level, and I guess I should have reached the bottom of the lake by this time.
"The Treasury Gate." I pointed the torch in my hand and shouted excitedly.
A double-opening gate with a metallic luster stopped in front of us, about 3 meters high and wide, and the surface was engraved with ingots.
"One look at the pattern on this door and you will know that it is full of treasures." Ma Jinxuan said with a smile.
Ma Jinxuan is Ma Zongliang's niece, the daughter of his younger brother Ma Zongxian, I saw her carrying a long sword, heroic posture, and a heroine's demeanor.
It's beautiful! I secretly praised in my heart, this woman has both Song Hanxiang's beauty and Ouyang Ruolan's heroism, which is really the best.
"What the girl said is very true." I flattered.
Ma Jinxuan glanced at me contemptuously and ignored me.
I was bored, so I turned around and looked for the mechanism to open the door, to hide my embarrassment and embarrassment.
"There's a keyhole here, but I guess no one has a key, right?" I laughed, and then took out the dark iron key from the Qiankun bag and easily unlocked the door.
"After Gao Zu died in battle, the whereabouts of the key were unknown." Ma Zongliang said.
Ma Jinsu and Ma Jingao each stood on one side and pushed the two doors to a right angle.
A damp musty smell rushed out, causing everyone to cough wildly, but fortunately it was non-toxic and caused no casualties.
"Don't trespass, be careful." Ma Zongliang shouted.
Everyone stopped at the door, all eyes on me.
"Dare to love me, I'm your pathfinder?" I can't help the airway.
"The village has suffered heavy losses, and the old and weak women and children have been killed and injured countless times, isn't the helper guilty in his heart? Don't want to make it up? Ma Zongliang asked.
"Hehe, I guess I don't have a choice." I scoffed.
"It's good that the helper understands." Ma Jinke smiled sinisterly.
I observed the situation inside the door, and found that I could see more than 10 meters away by the light of the fire, and then there was a black rumbling field, full of unknown horrors, and the gusts of wind rushed towards me, which was terrifying.
Rushing in recklessly may touch the mechanism, and you will definitely die, and it is not a way to stand at the door and consume it, and the people in the White Crane Villa are gradually losing patience, and I am at a loss, and beads of sweat suddenly appear on my forehead.
It occurred to me that my bow could shoot rockets and could be used to find my way, so I shot a number of arrows in succession in all directions inside the door.
Although the rocket's illumination range was limited, I quickly figured out that it was a hall about 200 meters square, and the hall was empty.
"Sharp Gang Leader, you see the light in the center of the hall." Ma Jinyun kindly reminded.
I looked closely, and sure enough, there was a green bright spot floating in the air 30 feet away from the door, and I don't know why.
"Ghost fire?" I wondered, "This is a treasure trove and not a burial chamber, how can there be such a thing?" β
"It's too far to see clearly, so it's better to help the master go and check it out." Ma Jin smiled evilly.
"Brother, why do you have to push me to death?" I smiled wryly, "We're all in the same boat now. β
With an idea, I took out the pet cage from the treasure chest, summoned Jiaming, and ordered it to fly towards the bright spot.
Jia Ming let out a long roar, flapped his wings and threw himself into the darkness without hesitation.
"Whew......" Jiaming didn't fly far before he let out a long and terrible scream, and then fell silent.
"There's a trap!" I shouted.
"Everybody knows there's a mechanism in there." Ma Jin said with a smile, "It's a pity for the helper's bird." β
I glared at Ma Jinke angrily, thinking that I would have to give him some color when I had a chance in the future.
"Brother, the pet of the Sharp Gang Master died tragically, so don't talk about it." Ma Jinyun persuaded.
Ma Jinke snorted lightly in his nose, and did not answer, thinking that he had always loved this sister very much, and her words could enter his ears.
I smiled gratefully at Ma Jinyun, clenched my fist and said, "Thank you, Miss Ma." β
Ma Jinyun smiled at me in return, then blushed and lowered her head busily.
I was stunned to admire Ma Jinyun's delicate state, and a rush surged in my chest.
When I came back to my senses, I was extremely embarrassed to find that everyone around me was staring at me with angry and disdainful eyes.
I was immediately on my back, sweating profusely, and my underwear was instantly soaked.
Now I can only fight, I thought to myself, so I silently opened my bow and arrow, carefully aimed at the green bright spot for a long time, and shot an arrow cautiously.
The arrow left the string and dragged a long flame like a meteor through the dark sky of the night, and finally hit the target with precision.
With a loud bang, all the lamps on the walls and ceilings of the hall were lit together, and the lights were dazzling and dazzling.
"I suddenly felt enlightened." I couldn't help but laugh.
"Well, I'm in a much better mood all of a sudden." Ma Jinyun said, and then found that something was wrong, so he quickly closed his lips and retracted half a step, making a quail shape in shame.
What a cute little girl, I have to find a way to get her, I smiled and stared at Ma Jinyun for a moment, secretly making up my mind.
There is also a door in the middle of the opposite hall, which is supposed to lead deeper into the treasury, and there are a total of 40,000 granite tiles 1 meter square, each of which may have hidden mechanisms.
I could jump 10 zhang away with my light skills, so I shot an arrow at a certain floor tile 10 zhang away from the doorway.
The arrow sparked on the floor tiles, then bounced off and fell to the side, leaving only faint scorch marks on the tiles.
"Hey, good luck." I laughed, "Just find a safe spot every 10 zhang, and everyone can reach the opposite gate with just a light effort." β
"Yes, good idea." Ma Zongliang's face was full of joy, and he nodded lightly and smiled.
"It's okay for everyone to jump 10 zhang distance, right?" I asked.
Everyone shook their heads - almost everyone in Baihe Villa knows martial arts, even the maids and servants are no exception, and the distance of 10 zhang is naturally not a problem.
After careful aiming, I fired an arrow at a floor tile 20 feet away from the door.
The arrow triggered the mechanism, and several ballistae on the roof turned their heads to shoot at the floor tiles continuously, and a rapid rain of arrows poured down, instantly filling the 1 zhang radius near the floor tiles.
"If a person steps on it, how can he survive?" Ma Jinxuan stuck out his tongue and said.
"I don't know if the floor tiles that have triggered the mechanism are safe?" I frowned as I reached out and pulled an arrow from the treasure chest, drew my bow and aimed it for a long time, shooting the arrow at the floor tile again.
As soon as the arrow hit the floor tile, the ballista was triggered again, and the rain of arrows flew out at a rapid rate, and I sighed helplessly - the repeated triggering of the trap meant that we would have a lot of work, and we had to find the bricks without the trap to move forward as a safe point.
I jumped up with a dragonfly and jumped to a safe spot 10 feet away, so that I could continue to test the floor tiles farther away.
Unexpectedly, I had just flown more than 1 meter away when I felt a gravitational pull dragging me to the ground, and I fell straight down, hitting the floor tile closest to the door.
There was a burst of laughter behind me, and the tiles clicked and the mechanism was triggered.
A door suddenly opened on the wall on the side of the door, and from inside rushed out a jet-black and shiny mecha that was 3 meters high, and it swooped down on me with both fists.
I took a closer look, this mecha is called the Secret Passage Mecha, the level is level 500 Ultimate Boss, and the health value is displayed as? /οΌγ
I didn't bother to explain the reason for the fall, so I got up and ran out the door.
"The helper is so light." Ma Jin sneered.
"You'll find out what's going on later." I retorted, throwing out a smoky miasma without looking back.
The mech didn't slow down, it continued to charge at me, and it was fast enough to move faster than 140% of my movement.
"Why are you still stunned? Do it! Ma Zongliang shouted.
Everyone struck out, swords and fists and feet in unison, only to find that the mecha was unbreakable and did not hurt blood at all, but each blow could slightly hinder its pace.
I don't know why the hatred of the mecha has always been on me, staring at me menacingly, it is the ultimate boss of level 500, and its attack power cannot be underestimated, and it will definitely kill me in seconds if it touches it, so I have to run all the way along the secret passage, not daring to stop at all.
The mech pursued me stubbornly, and the crowd followed it and attacked to slow it down.
"Helper, what happened just now?" Ma Zongliang asked.
"There is a suction force on the floor in the hall that pulls me firmly, and I can't perform light work." I replied, "I'm afraid that the previous plan will not be realized, and it will have to be carried out one by one." β
When Ma Zongliang heard this, his expression became solemn, and he accelerated the attack speed of his palms without saying a word.
"Oh my God, tens of thousands of floor tiles, by the time we find the way, I'm afraid we'll starve to death in it." Someone shouted in despair.
"Not every floor tile has to be tried, just now a safe spot has been identified, just try the 8 around it, and so on." As I spoke, I turned around and shot a few arrows at the mechβas everyone continued to attack at high density, I had already distanced myself from the mech, so I dared to seize the opportunity to turn around and attack.
Everyone felt a little comforted when they heard my words, so they didn't complain anymore, and they all put aside their distractions and attacked the mecha with all their might.
After about 5 minutes of fighting, the mecha suddenly stopped and stood still, and then the whole body made a "crunch" sound.
Ten seconds later, the mech exploded with a "bang", scattering shell fragments and parts, including a huge clockwork mechanism.
"I see, the clockwork is loose, the energy is exhausted, and it hangs." It dawned on me.
The crowd didn't quite understand what I was talking about, but they were all relieved.
We turned back to the hall and stood in the door again.
"Let's start with the floor tiles around the safety point 10 feet away, as long as you shoot 2 out of 8 to connect the 3 safety points." I said.
I shot an arrow at the floor tiles that were nearly a block away from the safe spot, and I couldn't help but feel overjoyed.
Everyone cheered, as if they had won the final victory.
It took more than 2 hours, more than 20 mechs and more than 100 ballistas to trigger, and we were able to open the way between the gate and the security point 10 zhang away.
"It's not time, we have only opened 1/6 of the road, and the road is long." I sighed.
"According to the speed of Fang Cai, when it is fast and when it is slow, when it is ugly, we will definitely be able to get out of the hall." Ma Zongliang said confidently.
"Maybe the stone gate at the door will be opened." I laughed, "That way everyone can get out alive than risking in the treasure trove." β
"I hope so." Ma Zongliang nodded.
