A few days later, Qu Shan met two masters of Chen Guo.

One tall and one short, one fat and one thin, two completely different people, but their expressions are very similar, they are both the same cold, as if the whole world owes them millions of taels of silver.

Seeing the song list, the two didn't give him any special preferential treatment, which made the song list regretful.

Pei Yuanjiu smiled and introduced to both parties, Qu Shan learned that among the two people, the tall and thin one was called Liu Changsheng, and the short and fat winter melon was named Liu Sanquan, both of whom were masters of the Xuanyuan faction, the first major faction in the Chen country.

"Welcome Brother Qu to join, this time we will work together, as long as we get that treasure, we must have a share of Brother Qu. The dwarf winter melon squeezed out a stiff smile and showed kindness to Qu Dan.

Qu Shan looked at the contrasting two, and muttered to himself in his heart, these two old guys came all the way from Chen Guo to stir up the wind and rain in the territory of Longmen Mountain, they must not be impatient, and there are no mysterious treasures in the palace, which makes them willing to take risks......

Qu Shan was also a little curious about the so-called treasure, and was secretly wary of the inexplicable appearance of the few people in front of him. Even Pei Yuanjiu, who worshiped the Fire Gate, couldn't believe that these two Chen Guoren, who had nothing to do with him, would sell him as far as they got the opportunity, and they didn't know how far they would die in the end.

But think about it, these people are just trying to make him charge, and when the time comes, they will fight fiercely with each other, and they will wait for the opportunity to make a move, and do the fisherman's profit. It's just that these people are afraid that they don't know enough about his life-saving escape skills, as long as he sees the treasure, it is beyond their control to fall into their hands.

Thinking of this, Qu Shan nodded and said, "It's easy to say, I hope the two seniors keep their promises." ”

Several people discussed the details of the distribution again, and finally all four of them laughed, and they had different meanings, and they didn't know who was calculating whom.

Pei Yuanjiu opened a map, which was crisscrossed and incomparably complicated, he pointed to one of the circles that had been outlined, and said: " What we are looking for, in this position, located in the deepest part of the palace at the top of a nine-story pagoda, is a magical picture, the landscape is magnificent, like a stroke of genius, which records a legend that can break through the limit of the exercise, as long as you get it, you can break through the bottleneck that we have not broken through for many years, and this picture, the four people in our field can take turns to watch, and there is no contradiction, therefore, I hope everyone will work together to snatch this picture scroll out first. ”

Qu Shan followed Pei Yuanjiu's point, carefully memorized the topographical map of the palace twice, and memorized the location of the circle in his heart, but thought in his heart that this location was not far from the pavilion where he followed General Zheng to eavesdrop last time, and it must be under the protection of the two old monsters in the palace, and he was afraid that there would be a fierce battle at that time.

While listening to Pei Yuanjiu begin to analyze the distribution of the guards in the palace, as well as some other precautions, Qu thought about his plan alone, how to get that picture.

............

The night is like ink, and it is a good time to walk at night.

Several figures appeared on the walls of the palace, paused slightly, swept up like ghosts, and a few leaps, disappeared between the pavilions, and a group of guards patrolled back and forth, but found no trace of them.

These people are Qu Dan, Pei Yuanjiu, and Liu Changsheng and Liu Sanquan of Chen Guoxuan's original faction.

Qu Shan was a little depressed at this time, because one of the advantages he relied on for survival was gone. It turned out that the nine-story tower, I don't know which generation of royal masters of Suiguo performed special exercises, and within three hundred zhang around, there was a miraculous forbidden air field, that is, it was impossible to fly, and Qu Dan's sword art was there, and it would not work.

When Qu Dan came to Qingyuan City, he was discovered by the six masters at the first time, and he was taking off the sword at that time, so Qu Dan's ability to fly is not a secret in front of these people. Among the awakening skills, the ability to fly is extremely rare, Qu Dan came all the way from the Barbarian Snow Clan to the Eastern Holy Clan, and has never seen a master of flying, of course, except for the strange spirit beasts such as Xuanwu and Fengsheng Beasts, but this does not mean that there are no strong people who can fly, every period, there will be such a large number of awakened grandmasters, but most of them are collected by the gate faction, and there are very few scattered ones. Another way to be able to fly is to break through the limit of the sixth layer of awakening and rush to a higher level.

It's just that that kind of situation is unimaginable even among these old monsters, because even if it is a super faction like Longmen Mountain and the Xuanyuan Sect, there hasn't been a single person like this for hundreds of years, and even the entire Holy Clan, the most recent Awakening Grandmaster who broke through the sixth layer of awakening and reached the seventh layer realm, was also nearly two hundred years ago.

"Fortunately, there is still the Five Elements Escape Technique, this skill, which was used in the palace at that time, should not be a problem. Qu Shan thought like this, and finally felt a little comforted in his heart. If even the escape technique doesn't work, he promises to turn around immediately now and not go to this troubled water again. No matter how rare the treasure is, it has to be fated to get it, and his ability to fight head-on now is too difficult to deal with such an old monster.

"Hey, this Yang family's old man's palace is really big, and I don't know how many people have been looted, if you haven't looked at the map, it only takes three or two laps, and you will be dizzy, and what are you talking about stealing treasures...... Pei Yuanjiu crouched in the shadows, waiting for a team of guards in front to leave, and said quietly.

Several people thought deeply and nodded their heads.

The guards in front have passed, and a few people have risen and fallen, and they have gone deep into several pavilions in a row, and the top of the tall tower in the distance has been faintly visible.

"That's the tower. Pei Yuanjiu pointed out, "This tower is called Xuanji Tower, there are many mysteries, the evil door is very much, as long as you enter within three hundred zhang, many special awakening skills will not be used, especially escape skills, the tower body does not know what it is made of, the copper wall is ironclad, no matter how much force can not be opened, and this tower is a fully enclosed design, only the lowest floor, there is a gate for entry and exit......"

Pei Lao'er quietly glanced at a few people, and then said: "That is to say, if you want to get the treasure at the top of the tower, you can only enter from the gate at the bottom of the tower, layer by layer, go up in turn, enter the ninth layer in turn, and then go down layer by layer, exit from the gate, in addition, there is no other way to retreat, therefore, it is extremely difficult to steal this treasure, I and the two Elder Liu have been here twice, both of them were discovered just after entering the tower gate, and it was a vicious battle to escape......

"But we have now obtained a hidden treasure, this time, we can finally enter it silently, as long as the other party finds us, successfully get the things inside, we will succeed in most of the success, after all, there are only three of them, the strength is equal, it is impossible to stop us. ”

The tower is getting closer and closer, and Pei Yuanjiu and the three of them seem to be familiar with the path and walk easily. Suddenly, an indescribable feeling enveloped Qu Dan's whole body, it was a faint coercion, which was extremely uncomfortable, and gave birth to a sense of resistance for no reason.

"We are already within three hundred zhang, those two old guys in the palace must be nearby, everyone must restrain their breath, and they must not be discovered. ”

Pei Yuanjiu tapped his toes, and floated forward like a ghost, without even a trace of wind. Liu Changsheng and Liu Sanquan did the same, and followed suit, if their state at this time was discovered, it would definitely attract a high-pitched scream: "Ghost!"

Qu Shan shook his head, throwing away his unrealistic thoughts, that layer of faint coercion made him really uncomfortable, he felt that he had underestimated this Xuanji Tower before, but he had already come here, and it was unwise to go back, so he had to bury his head and go all the way to the dark. Whether it is Pei Yuanjiu's side or General Zheng's side, Qu Shan doesn't have too much good feelings, and it is the most real thing to maneuver around, seek benefits for himself, and then uncover the mystery in his heart.

The guards near the tower were noticeably denser, at least three times more than on the perimeter, and often as soon as one group of guards left, another group followed, leaving no gaps in between.

The four of them lay in ambush for a long time before they approached the gate at the bottom of the tower with their superb skills.

It is two heavy steel gates, as long as you look at it, you feel that it is extremely heavy, only afraid of no less than a few thousand catties, such a gate, how to open it silently, it is indeed not easy to do, and, within these three hundred zhang, the guards come and go, which adds infinite difficulty.

The song sheet is hidden in the shadows, and I just think that the slightest movement will attract attention.

"Okay, prepare!" Liu Sanquan, the dwarf winter melon-like master of Chen Guo, took out a pitch-black object from his arms, and there were words in his mouth, Qu Shan only felt that the surrounding scenery flickered slightly, and regained his calm. Nothing has changed, but Qu Dan clearly feels that something is different from before.

The dwarf melon lay there, motionless, as if transformed into a sculpture. Qu Dan's eyes stared at him deadly, and he clearly saw his outline, but he felt that the person was no longer there, and he closed his eyes to feel it, but he found nothing but air.

Amazing!What is this ability!?

Qu Shan was a little stunned, these old monsters who awakened the fifth order were really not easy to with, with this hand alone, Qu Shan had no certainty of cracking, he couldn't help but be more cautious about this late-night trip, fighting geese all day long, don't be blinded by geese.

After a while, Pei Yuanjiu, who was beside him, suddenly touched him lightly, and said in a low voice, "Go!" and then quietly walked out of the shadows and rushed towards the gate.

The tower's gate is exposed, and if you really jump out alone, you will definitely be discovered, and you will not be spared. Seeing Pei Yuanjiu so bold, Qu Dan almost exclaimed, but Pei Yuanjiu's figure flashed, but he disappeared from front of him in a daze, as if he had suddenly stepped into another invisible level, and disappeared inexplicably.

At this time, Liu Changsheng, a high bamboo pole, also quietly jumped out, and only Qu Dan was left in the same place.

Qu Shan suppressed the surprise in his heart and followed closely. Walking out of that shadow, I felt a slight fluctuation in the air, and after a moment, the scene returned to its original state, but the few people who had disappeared before were standing in front of me in the open.

Liu Sanquan, a dwarf winter melon, squinted at a pair of thin eyes, stood at the gate of the tower, vigilantly looking at the guards patrolling back and forth not far away. The two steel gates have been opened a crack, and the darkness inside is as if the mouth of a giant beast that chooses people and loves people wants to eat all the people in front of the door. Pei Yuanjiu and Liu Changsheng rushed in and swaggered into the gate, and the guards not far away glanced over from time to time, but they couldn't see their movements like blind people.

"Hallucination!" Qu Dan flashed such a thought in his heart, and without stopping at his feet, he followed in.

Crunch – Boom——!

The big iron door made a heavy sound, slowly closed, and the short and fat body of the dwarf winter melon flashed, and flashed in at the last moment, and the iron door finally closed together, and it was dark inside, and all four people were locked inside.

Of course, such darkness is equal to no music list, he has been able to see things at night many years ago.

Everything was silent for a long time, and there was another shaking around me, as if it had returned to normal from the previous magic.

Qu Shan carefully recalled Liu Sanquan's series of actions, as well as the strange scene in front of the gate, and finally determined that this Humpty Dumpty must have performed a special awakening skill, temporarily distorting the scene in front of the tower gate, they could see it from the inside, everything was normal, but when they looked at it from the outside, they couldn't find them, because there was a layer of illusory things that blocked the sight of others.

And when the door was closed just now, the particularly piercing "crunch-boom-" sound in the night did not even alarm the people outside, it can only be said that this layer of illusion is even blocked by the sound.

It's magical!

Qu Shan knew that he hadn't seen through everything just now, and if he faced the dwarf winter melon, he didn't know what chance he had.

"Fortunately, it was not found this time. Pei Yuanjiu said in a low voice, "It still depends on Brother Sanquan's illusion to make it so smooth." ”

Humpty Dumpty touched the black non-luminous bead in his hand and said, "If I hadn't gotten this Thousand Illusion Bead this time, I'm afraid it wouldn't have gone so well." ”

Liu Changsheng, a tall bamboo pole, looked at the surrounding environment and said: "This tower is full of organs, it is not a safe place, we still have a nine-story tower to go, don't be too happy." ”

He looked back and forth on the ground on the first floor, and said for a long time: "There is a mystery on the ground, I will go ahead, you follow my steps, don't make a mistake! Otherwise, if you touch the mechanism, you may not die, but it will definitely attract those old guys!"

Several people nodded, all waiting for his orders.

After a long time, Gao Zhupole took a step, his ten fingers kept shaking, as if he was pinching the arrangement of the machine, and his lips kept squirming, so fast that it was dazzling.

Qu Shan could see that the other party was making a tacit calculation, and the three of them didn't dare to disturb him.

After another long time, Gao Zhupole took the second step......

Step 3, Step 4, Step 5......

The song list is a little awe-inspiring, he can't see the mystery of the ground, but he can feel the danger, because Liu Changsheng's steps are completely irregular, one step to the left, one step to the right, occasionally a big stride forward, and the next step is half a step back...... As he said, if you step on the wrong step, the mechanism here may not be able to kill a master like them, but the movement will definitely be detected by the outside, and when the time comes, I am afraid that it will fall short again!

The three of them followed closely in the footsteps of the person in front of them, and walked forward without missing a step.

Time passed by ticking, Qu Shan quietly used the sword technique, and sure enough, he couldn't use it, that layer of faint coercion was like a forbidden air spell, so that his sword technique was completely out of order, and then quietly performed the escape technique, this time, a cold sweat suddenly broke out, because the ground didn't know what magic was applied, and it couldn't go down.

That's it!

The two most powerful life-saving tricks failed, and after seeing the illusion of the dwarf winter melon and the calculation of the high bamboo pole, he did not have any advantage in this, and Pei Yuanjiu, an old monster, did not know what ability he was hiding, but he was afraid that when he got the treasure, it was when they turned their faces.

Qu Dan was more vigilant in his heart, and secretly thought about how a person could escape in front of three opponents who were stronger than himself......

Time passed silently, Qu Dan calculated in his heart, three hours had passed, they had walked one hundred and five steps, the high bamboo pole in front seemed to be stuck, and they didn't dare to go any further, they didn't move their steps for half an hour, a layer of fine and dense sweat appeared on his forehead, his eyes were solemn, and he was silent.

Finally, as if he had decided something, he stepped out with all his might, jumped three steps in a row, and finally jumped to the stairs leading to the second floor. Liu Changsheng let out a long breath, and felt a sense of prostration: "I don't know which pervert designed this mechanism, and there is no fixed number of paths for the last three steps, so I can only guess! Fortunately, the bet is right, otherwise I will prepare to escape." ”

Several people followed his steps and jumped up the stairs one after another.

"This tower is much more complicated than we imagined, and at this rate, it will only take several days to reach the ninth floor, and we have to be prepared for a long time......," Liu Changsheng said, stepping into the second floor.

Qu Shan followed silently, and at some point, Pei Yuanjiu walked at the end and sandwiched him in the middle, it seemed that they were also not at ease with him, the guy who was temporarily added, and they were monitoring him at any time.

Qu Shan looked at the second floor, on which were placed many ordinary furniture and things, long tables, round tables, square tables, incense tables, incense burners, futon chairs, stools, bookshelves, large wooden beds...... There are all kinds of things, and they are extremely scattered, and there are many horizontal and vertical upside down, like the crime scene that has been ransacked by robbers thirty or fifty times, a mysterious mechanism tower, but there are these things that should not appear in it, I have to say that it is a strange thing.

"These pieces of furniture are very strange...... Gao Zhu Pole observed for a long time, "some of them can be touched, some of them can't, there are no less than a hundred, we have to go through the middle......"

Qu Shan hummed, isn't this nonsense, the question is how to wear it.

After a while, Liu Changsheng began to move again, he jumped on the nearest table in one step, squatted on it, and carefully looked around.
