Chapter 178: The City Lord Plotted to Set a Trap

"Members of the Liesha Treasure Hunt Team, today is an important day, our treasure hunt team is going out of the city to mine.

If you dig up the ore and send it to the Great Wilderness Supermarket to sell, you can earn the first amount of money that meets the scale of the treasure hunting team since the formation of the treasure hunting team.

When the time comes, everyone's bags will be filled, and I hope that everyone will unite and work hard to form a whole like the previous gladiatorial troupe. ”

Meng Tiansha came down from the upper floor, carrying a package the size of a person, and opened his throat to speak loudly.

When he had finished speaking, he pushed open the door of the building and walked out into the street.

Qing Youcai immediately greeted everyone: "Keep up, the carriage is outside the city, keep up, don't fall behind." ”

Zheng Qiu walked in the middle of the crowd, looking at the team back and forth.

It was similar to the way they had been in dueling matches before, but this time everyone had a smile on their faces and their eyes flashing with excitement and eagerness.

They soon came to the city wall, and compared with the tall city wall, the gate of the Great Wilderness Lonely City was pitifully small, only one zhang wide, less than one and a half zhang high, narrow and short.

The size was just enough to accommodate a carriage, and it was difficult for people and carriages to walk side by side.

It is said that this is to facilitate the guards and control the entry and exit of personnel.

When passing through the city gate, Zheng Qiu looked up at the top of the city gate, there was a huge gate half a foot and two feet thick hanging on the top, the gate was still iron, once it fell, I was afraid that the Qi Yao Realm cultivators would not be able to penetrate it in a short time.

The commander guarding the gate checks the identity of each person and makes sure that it is correct before letting them go.

This is the first time Zheng Qiu has walked out of the lonely city of the Great Wilderness, and when he looks up, there is wilderness in his sight, and there is no grass.

On the wilderness on the edge of the city, there are countless simple sheds, large and small, which are temporary residences for cultivators outside the great wilderness.

In the distance, bare rocky peaks stood one after another, without the slightest life, and the wind mixed with yellow sand blew, making people unable to open their eyes.

Outside the city gates, a long line of wagons with empty bodies stretched out of sight, and a dozen coachmen ran to and fro to calm the restless horses.

Seeing so many carriages, Zheng Qiu couldn't help but speak: "This is too much!"

He called out to a few grooms, told them to set off, and then beckoned them to disperse to each part of the convoy so that they could take care of the wagon.

Crunching, the horses pulled the wooden cart forward, driven by the grooms.

Zheng Qiu sat in the car body, watching the tall city walls gradually shrink and fade away, and the sheds on both sides kept moving back.

Occasionally, cultivators would come out of the shed, craned their necks and looked in the direction of the convoy, and after seeing the empty body, they hid in the shed and went about their business.

In the study room of the City Lord's Palace, Lin Zou hurriedly ran in and reported the situation to Lin Minghao.

"City Lord, the Liesha Treasure Hunting Team has already left the city, and Zheng Qiu is also inside. ”

Lin Minghao put down the book in his hand and asked, "How long has the treasure hunting team left?"

"Less than half an hour before I came here, they walked out of their makeshift quarters outside the city. ”

"Is there any movement over there?"

Lin Zou replied without hesitation: "No, Ming Zong is still the same as usual, but he should be able to know that the treasure hunting team is going out of the city." ”

Lin Minghao knocked on the table and thought for a moment, and said, "It's too early to lure Ming Zong out, wait until the Liesha team arrives at the location of the Red Grenade Mine, and then lead Ming Zong out." ”

He stood up, took a large roll of paper from the bookshelf, and spread it on the table, which was a topographic map of the hundred peaks in the Great Wilderness Lonely City.

Looking at the topographic map, he asked Lin Zou: "Where is the red pomegranate mine that the Liesha team is going to?"

Lin Zou walked to the table, stretched out his finger and clicked: "Here." ”

Looking at the position that Lin Zou clicked, Lin Minghao hugged his hand and held his chin to think.

muttered, "This position...... With Mingzong's cautious temper, he will definitely inquire about the direction of the Lisha team's travel, and the general direction will not deviate, so he has to lead to the southeast, well......"

Lin Zou raised his finger again and tapped at the topographic map: "City Lord, we can intercept halfway through this place." ”

Lin Minghao shook his head and vetoed this suggestion: "No, Ming Zong is a god realm after all, even if I do it myself, it is impossible for him not to be able to make a move."

The fight will inevitably destroy the scenery here, leaving a lot of traces of the fight, which will be discovered by the Blazing Sand team who returned the same way. ”

He leaned back at his desk, carefully studied the mountains and rivers on the topographic map, and after a few moments, drew circles with his fingers.

"The location is good, a low-lying area of quicksand, just to the southeast. ”

Lin Zou leaned over to check and couldn't help but praise again and again: "Sure enough, it's a good place, the quicksand can easily erase the traces of the fight, and it doesn't coincide with the direction of the Liesha team."

There is also a broken canyon on the side, and even if Ming Zong runs into it, he will catch turtles in the urn. ”

But soon Lin Zou showed embarrassment: "City Lord, Ming Zong is not stupid, I am afraid he will not easily enter this quicksand." ”

"You can lead Ming Zong to the vicinity of the quicksand, and I will let Granny Tang arrange the trap behind. ”

Zheng Qiu sat in the car body, admiring the surrounding scenery, time passed slowly, and the treasure hunting team had left the Great Wilderness Lonely City for half a day.

The curiosity at first faded, and the similar-looking rocky mountains and sandy areas repeatedly appeared, making people drowsy.

He sat cross-legged and straightened, ready to exercise his strength and strength, and this kind of boring time was best spent with cultivation.

Before he could reflect on himself, the crunching of the wheels died down, and the carriage stopped.

There is a case!

He hurriedly stood up and looked forward on tiptoe, the convoy would not stop for no reason, there must be something wrong ahead.

A few members of the team caught up and greeted Zheng Qiu: "Don't stay here, let's go up and have a look." ”

Hearing this, Zheng Qiu jumped out of the carriage and followed everyone forward.

At the front of the convoy, the team members formed a human wall, chattering as if they were saying something.

Zheng Qiu squeezed inside, and found Meng Tiansha dragging a carriage back, while Qing Youcai was crouching next to him and probing the sand with a long sword.

"What's going on?" he asked, turning to the team members next to him.

The team member replied: "The rocks under the road seem to have collapsed, turning this place into quicksand, and Old Man Qing is trying to see how big this quicksand is." ”

Qing Youcai spied inch by inch, and the long sword completely sank into the ground every time, until it was two zhang away, and the tip of the sword hit the stone base under the yellow sand.

"There was a stone foundation two feet wide underneath, and the carriage had to go around it. ”

Qing Youcai said as he looked around, then pointed to the small stone mound on the side of the road and said, "Use all your abilities, shovel this stone mound, and bypass the quicksand pit after leveling it." ”

Qing Youcai's words made everyone excited, and there was finally a bit of fun on the boring road.

"How about we compare who can shovel rocks faster?"

"Okay, let's get some lottery, and the loser should give money to the winner. ”

"They all came out to mine, and a few of them brought money. ”

"Then sing, and the loser sings. ”

"Hahaha, this is good, I've wanted to hear your voices for a long time. ”
