Chapter 174: Turning the Eye

Wu Wei and Jiang Zhiqian held on to the wall, and the two groped their way down the stone steps slowly, not daring to light the lamp and slow down, for fear of alarming the people hidden in the dark.

If you want to walk without a sound, in addition to slowing down, you can only do light skills, but in this dark tunnel, don't mention doing light skills or something, but a little lifting, and then slowing down can greatly reduce the movement.

After walking like this for a while, the stone steps were finally finished, the ground became flat, and from the slight flow of air, there should be a straight road in front of them, and they listened carefully, but they couldn't hear any sound, and the two discussed in a low voice, and decided to continue walking.

There seemed to be no end to the road, Wu Wei and Jiang Zhiqian slowly moved in the road, except for the rustling of footsteps, there was no sound, and the eyes could not see anything. Fortunately, there are two people, walking in this dark corridor, the silence is really uncomfortable, the longer the time, the heavier the pressure in the heart, people have a kind of urge to can't help but light the lamp or shout, at this time, only with their own greed for treasures can suppress the fear welling up in their hearts.

It seemed like a century had passed, and finally, after their palms touched a wall, and after fumbling to confirm that it was a portal, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.

"There's a door blocked, is it okay to light the lights?"

Jiang Zhiqian said in a low voice, in fact, if they didn't light the lamp, they wouldn't be able to find out the mechanism that opened the door.

Wu Wei said in a low voice: "Order." ”

As he spoke, he took out from the package a candlestick with a glass cover, which would light as soon as it was taken out. It is also the cheapest item for the player to light at night, and it is larger than an oil lamp. But the illuminated range is also much larger.

When the light returned to the world, Wu Wei and Jiang Zhiqian were subconsciously relieved. They didn't rush to find the switch to open the portal, but after glancing at the portal in front of them, they turned their heads to look at the corridor behind them, and the range illuminated by the light was only about ten meters, and it was still pitch black in the distance.

Jiang Zhiqian's eyes were sharp, and he pointed to a black thing in the corner of the wall and said, "What is that?" ”

"Looks like an arrow."

Wu Wei replied suspiciously, he walked up a few steps, bent down and looked at the black metal carefully, confirming that it was a broken arrow. At the same time, he also saw that there was another arrow shaft not far away, and judging by its size, it was a featherless crossbow arrow.

Wu Wei looked at it for a while, suddenly his face stiffened, and he turned his head to look for it on the wall, and soon after, he found a mark on the wall that had been hit by an arrow, this trace was very fresh, and it was obvious that he had just gotten it. Wu Wei shuddered.

"Damn, this is a crossbow arrow, but luckily the mechanism may have malfunctioned a little, and it only shot such a crossbow arrow. The corridor we just passed through could have been filled with mechanisms. ”

Jiang Zhiqian was also scared for a while when he heard this, just now the two of them came over in the dark during class, if the mechanism in the Yongdao is good. It is estimated that the two of them have already returned to the city for free.

Jiang Zhiqian thought for a while, and suddenly smiled: "Does this mean that our luck is very good, and it is estimated that we are going to get rich!" ”

Wu Wei smiled in a low voice. Turning to the stone gate blocking the road, "Find the mechanism to open the door." ”

No one had walked in the corridor for a long time, and there was a pile of dust on the ground. He Xiaoyong didn't think about eliminating the traces when he walked by, so Wu Wei and Jiang Zhiqian easily found the traces of He Xiaoyong's activities.

"This bastard actually came all the way, how do you think he knows that he can light the lamp?"

Wu Wei had a basis for saying this, because their footprints were close to the wall, but the footprints of He Xiaoyong and the old man of the shopkeeper were in the middle, and He Xiaoyong's footprints did not destroy the footprints of the old man.

Jiang Zhiqian frowned and shook his head, he couldn't think of the strangeness in this, maybe He Xiaoyong was stupid and bold and stumbled by mistake? Or, He Xiaoyong has no fear? It is estimated that only He Xiaoyong himself knows the truth, but this is not important.

Jiang Zhiqian squatted on the ground and carefully observed the footprints near the portal, and soon he found that the footprints of the shopkeeper were heading straight to the left side of the portal, and He Xiaoyong seemed to wander at the door for a while, and finally walked to the left side of the portal.

"The mechanism should be on the left, look carefully."

With the guidance of the footprints, the two quickly found the mechanism that was not very secret, the two extinguished the lights, and were ready to fight at any time, and then Wu Wei pushed the switch hard, and the portal slid silently to the right, although the silent sliding of the heavy stone door was very unreasonable, but now where can the two of them take care of this, as soon as the portal opened, their attention was on the space behind the portal.

What disappointed the two of them was that although the back of the portal was no longer pitch black, they didn't see He Xiaoyong or the old man's figure, and the sight was a semicircular cave, and there were three openings at the bottom of the cave.

At the top of this semicircular space, there was a glowing crystal, and the two of them just glanced at it and stopped paying attention, that thing was a common glowing stone in the tunnel dungeon, which could not be destroyed and taken at all.

The two quickly focused on the ground, but unfortunately, the underside here was clean, and it was impossible for them to find He Xiaoyong's footprints.

"Damn, maze!"

Jiang Zhiqian complained in a low voice, but a trace of excitement flashed in his eyes, the more complicated the tunnel, the more huge the receipt will be, otherwise what is the system working so hard to make such a big maze?

Wu Wei sighed: "There are three forks in the road at once, and we can't go separately." ”

"Yes, let's see if there is a way to find any traces of He Xiaoyong."

Wu Wei nodded, didn't say anything more, and walked directly across the portal to the semicircular cave, and the two entered the cave, and the portal behind them closed silently.

The two of them glanced back, and no longer paid attention to the matter of the portal, but squatted down on the ground and carefully looked for possible traces, and soon the two were disappointed, the ground was very clean, and there was no trace at all, and the two searched carefully at the three holes, but there were still no traces.

Jiang Zhiqian sighed and stood up, frowning and looking at the three holes, only to find that there was a small figure carved on the top of the hole.

"Ah Wei, what do you think it is?"

Wu Wei looked at it happily, although the figure was very small, but if you looked closely, you could still see a rough idea, it should be straw sandals, short swords and shells.

"What does this mean? Is it a point marker? ”

Wu Wei seemed to be asking Jiang Zhiqian, and seemed to be asking himself, Jiang Zhiqian thought for a while and said, "Maybe it's the pointing mark, are these three Yongdao all useful?" ”

Wu Wei frowned: "Even if it's all useful, what?" Our goal now is to find He Xiaoyong, no, find that old man, and leave the rest alone. ”

"That's right, but how do you find the old man?"

Wu Wei did not answer Jiang Zhiqian's question, but walked back and forth in front of several holes with a frown, and finally, he stopped in front of the hole marked with straw sandals.

"Go this way."

Jiang Zhiqian looked at Wu Wei curiously, but he didn't have any doubts, he just raised his feet and walked over, Wu Wei saw Jiang Zhiqian coming, he also raised his feet and walked towards the entrance of the cave.

After walking for a while, another similar fork in the road appeared, still a semicircular cave, still three caves marked with different symbols, Wu Wei still chose to walk the hole marked with straw shoes after wandering around the three caves for a while.

Next, they passed through four more forks, and Wu Wei chose to walk through the hole marked with straw sandals without exception, and finally, the two saw something different.

This is a very large cave, the area is about more than 100 meters square, the top of the cave is also quite high, it is inlaid with luminous crystals according to the star map, there is a building like a temple built in the cave, the temple itself only occupies a small part of the space, and the rest of the place is a flat square, empty and nothing.

When Wu Wei saw this temple, a smile appeared on his face, but Jiang Zhiqian quietly glanced at Wu Wei, with deep jealousy in his eyes.

Jiang Zhiqian was about to open his mouth to ask what to do next, when suddenly a burst of arrogant laughter came from the temple.

"Haha"

"You're there!"

"Hehe, thank you for showing me the way, otherwise I wouldn't have found this baby! Haha"

Jiang Zhiqian and Wu Wei glanced at each other, the wild laughter was like a clarion call for a charge, and the two of them rushed forward almost at the same time without saying a word.

"Haha!"

He Xiaoyong's laughter stopped abruptly, and the strange sound at the end was like a duck that had been choked by the neck.

"You, you"

Wu Wei glanced at He Xiaoyong, whose face was pale, and then looked at the old man who was seriously injured and fell to the ground, He Xiaoyong must have wanted to get more information from the old man if he didn't kill the old man, of course, Wu Wei also had the same idea.

Jiang Zhiqian seemed very happy to see He Xiaoyong's surprised expression, and said with a smile: "Brother, I didn't expect to meet here, didn't you go to help your friend?" ”

He Xiaoyong looked at the palm-sized emerald jade plate in his hand, raised his hand and stuffed the jade card into his arms, and with a shake of his hand, there was a pair of blue-black fist gloves.

"Don't talk nonsense, if you want something, come up and get it yourself, but Jiang Zhiqian, you also have to be careful of the knife behind your back, hehe"

Wu Wei frowned: "Xiao Yong, it's useless, it's good to be brothers, it's not too late to turn back." ”

"Whew! When Lao Tzu is a fool, he will kill me if he wants something, but I don't know who killed whom! ”

He Xiaoyong said, and glanced at Jiang Zhiqian meaningfully. (To be continued......) R1292
