Chapter 75: The Giant Cage of Darkiron
This secret room is not only a place for the Song family to hide treasures, but also a place for refuge, since the Bai family suddenly appeared in Nanpu City decades ago, the Song family's dominance in the city has been greatly challenged.
In fact, the Song Mansion in Nanpu City is only a small part of the Song family's property, Song Qi ranks third in the family, and there are two older brothers above him, and that Xun'er girl is his eldest brother's biological daughter. The headquarters of the Song family is located in Canyungang, 800 miles east of Nanpu City, although it is a port close to the East China Sea, but the scale is many times larger than Nanpu City. Remnant Yungang is the closest city to the East China Sea on the mainland, and it is also the closest city to the world's first door Tianyahai Pavilion, because it is perennially taken care of by the Tianyahai Pavilion, the city is very safe, so the development of commerce and trade and other aspects are very prosperous, and it is one of the most prosperous cities on the mainland.
The Song family is one of the more than ten big forces in Remnant Cloud Port, and they have a great say in that big city, with their strength, it is not difficult to set foot on the small Bai family in Nanpu City, and they did it more than ten years ago.
However, the result was not as most people expected, the Bai family survived, and after that bloody battle, their position in Nanpu City was deeper and more solid, in the next ten years, although the Song family's branch in Nanpu City often had secret battles with the Bai family, but there was never a conflict on the surface.
What happened in that bloody battle back then, the Song family transferred many masters from Remnant Cloud Harbor, and even other forces in Remnant Cloud Harbor that were friendly with the Song family also sent many masters to help, and that kind of lineup and strength are not at all what this small Bai family can compete with now. The reason why the Bai family was able to survive in Nanpu City was because there was a person in the Bai family at that time, and that person killed more than ten helping masters in Remnant Cloud Harbor with his own strength, almost no one was invincible, and everyone couldn't hurt them in the slightest!
In the end, for some reason, that person did not kill the Song family, so the current situation appeared. Before that bloody battle, there were not so many dangerous hidden weapons and mechanisms in this underground secret room of the Song family, and the structure and many mechanisms here were all rearranged and added after that incident, just in case that person came back to trouble the Song family one day, for refuge.
This time, Qi Fei directly broke one of Bai Xiaohu's arms, and the Song family openly sheltered him, and the Bai family did not take immediate action, just to wait for that person to come. At this point, Song Qi had already guessed it, of course, the Bai family sent someone out to deliver the letter overnight, which also confirmed that his conjecture was not wrong, but this time, the Song family did not send people to intercept the person who sent the letter, and the reaction was not so strong, but it was a little strange, aren't they afraid that this time that person will appear in Nanpu City again?
What is the reason, no one can know to the onlookers, but Song Qi's heart must be as clear as a mirror.
The sound in the secret passage has never stopped, almost ringing into a single one, which does not show how big this underground secret room is, nor can it say how many hidden weapons there are in the secret tunnel, these sounds can only show one problem: that is, the secret passage in this secret room is very long and tortuous, so that the echo of gold and iron is continuous and constantly reverberating.
So far, these hidden weapons have not had any effect on Fang Shun, he is not injured, and there is no gap in his clothes, except for the small hole at the beginning, the rest of the place is still as good as ever.
On the surface, this is indeed the case, these hidden weapon mechanisms carefully set up by Song Qi are really like a pile of scrap copper and rotten iron to Fang Shun. But the actual situation is not so simple, with Song Qi's wisdom, he will definitely not do so much useless work, since he has carefully formulated such a plan, he must have his reason, or purpose.
The Xuantie sharp arrows, the poisonous mist traps on one side, and the heavy hammer boulders that kept appearing were not used to kill Fang Shun, because Song Qi knew that these things could not kill him at all, and these things were used to consume him. The sharp arrow failed to pierce his skin, and the heavy hammer failed to crack his inner abdomen, that was because of the armor, but what about those poisonous mist, as long as he breathed, he would inhale it into his body, even if he continued to detoxify it with his true qi, it was still impossible to drain it cleanly, because the poison here was specially placed by Song Qi, even if Qi Fei was here, if he didn't have a long time, he couldn't completely eliminate it.
Consumption is Song Qi's goal, although he did not completely pin his hopes on Qi Fei's body, but before Qi Fei made a move, he still hoped to wear down the opponent's combat power to the greatest extent.
It didn't take long for the man in purple to stop, his face was a little wrong, he seemed to have noticed something. When he meditated on the operation of the true qi, he unexpectedly discovered the abnormality in the body, those toxins can block the flow of the true qi in the body, if he continues like this, presumably within half an hour, he will become an ordinary person, and even the ability to fly with the qi will be lost.
"It's so insidious!" the man whispered, then took out a medicine bottle from his arms, poured out a pill that emitted jade light, and took it directly.
After taking the pill, he did not immediately start to move forward, but sat down on the spot, at this moment, surrounded by danger, he dared to sit down and close his eyes and luck, pranayama and detoxification, it was really a lot of courage. If Song Qi or Qi Fei suddenly made a move at this time, they would definitely be able to seriously injure him.
However, there was no such thing in the plan, Song Qi didn't expect Fang Shun to do such a thing in the secret passage, and Qi Fei, even if he saw such an opportunity, would not make a sneak attack, because he disdained it, not that he disdained the insidious means of sneak attack, but that he disdained to use the insidious method of sneak attack on such an opponent. In other words, he was confident enough to be able to fight Fang Shunzheng in the open, even if the other party was not poisoned, he could still do it.
The detoxification process of the man in purple did not last too long, he just had luck to catalyze the medicinal power of the elixir, so that it could be dispersed to any position in the body at the fastest speed, and the next thing was not to be deliberately cared about, as long as the blood in his body was constantly flowing, those toxins would be discharged sooner or later.
After half a cup of tea, he continued to walk, this time, his speed became faster, his feet did not stop, even if the hidden weapon continued, it still could not slow down his speed. Soon, he came to the real secret room. The secret room is not very large, to be precise, this underground secret room, most of the structure is a secret passage, the real secret room only occupies a very small part, and there is nothing special about it, it is a simple secret room.
There are more than ten small stone rooms around, which store all the belongings of the Song family in Nanpu City, gold, silver, jewelry, medicinal materials and goods. All the stone chambers enclosed a space more than ten zhang wide, and at this time, this space was tightly surrounded by a circle of dark iron cages, and there were many people outside the cage, all of whom were members of the Song family, all holding crossbow arrows and aiming at the person in the middle.
The moment the purple-robed man walked out of the dark passage, the only exit from the cage was quickly and silently sealed.
"Fang Shun, the Holy Hand of Flower Picking, really lives up to his reputation! It's a pity that you are going to die here today!"
This dark iron cage was specially built for him by Song Qi, and as early as when he was preparing to implement the plan, he had already found someone to start casting, and just yesterday, it was just completed. The brand-new cage is extremely strong, and it is even more unexpected by the other party.
"I didn't expect Song Sanye to think so highly of me, if this cage is exchanged for money, it should be able to fill a room!"
Fang Shun's tone was very relaxed, and there was no expression of worry or fear on his face, this cage was indeed beyond his imagination, but it did not exceed his expectations, because in his expectations, even death had been considered by him, and this cage was nothing.
He is right, Xuantie is something more precious than gold and silver, this entire cage is all made of Xuantie, and the financial resources spent must not be a small amount, in the entire Nanpu City, I am afraid that only the Song and Bai families can afford it.
"As long as I can get rid of you, I don't care if I spend more money!"
"Then what if I don't die today, won't all this money of yours be spent in vain?"
Song Qi twitched the corners of his mouth, raised his hand, and said with a smile: "These are not things you need to care about, what you should care about most now should be your life." With a small movement, dozens of sharp arrows would shoot out in an instant, shooting at the same target from different directions.
At this moment, the person in the iron cage finally began to react, the expression on his face gradually became solemn, and he had already begun to urge the true qi in his body to be secretly surging, ready to meet the deadly danger that could come at any time.
But the other party didn't intend to give him extra time to prepare, almost at the same time as the voice fell, Song Qi's hand waved down at a very fast speed, this gesture was an order to release the arrow.
The next moment, dozens of arrows and crossbows fired in unison, and the piercing sound of breaking the wind sounded in unison, even if you closed your eyes, just hearing these sounds would make your heart palpitate. These arrows and crossbows are different from those in the dark tunnel, whether it is speed, power, or quantity, they are not comparable to those hidden weapons in the dark tunnel, besides, the arrows are coated with deadly poison, as long as one shot, even if it is just a cut through his skin, it can immediately make him unconscious.
