Chapter 76: Arrows and Poisonous Mist
The poisoned arrows pierced through the gaps in the bars of the Darkiron Cage and shot through the air, with a piercing chirp, like a single sound.
Except for the top of his head and the soles of his feet, there were short arrows shooting from almost all directions, and the purple-robed man in the cage had almost nowhere to escape, and below was a hard stone slab, only the space above left him a glimmer of life, and at this moment, he could only jump up quickly, and escape from this position before the arrow pierced his body.
Then, he did, and his movements were agile, and almost as soon as he reacted, his body moved with his thoughts. However, he can't all be dodged by him with dozens of short arrows, the Song family uses crossbow arrows, not bows and arrows, the power of bows and arrows may be greater, but the speed can not be compared with the arrow crossbow, the battle in a short range, or the arrow crossbow can play a greater role, not only the rate of fire, the crossbow arrow does not need to be set up with arrows, as long as the first short arrow is shot, the second short arrow will automatically pop out, and the person who uses the arrow crossbow can shoot two or even three arrows in just one breath, which is not an exaggeration at all.
He dodged many short arrows, and the armor on his body blocked many short arrows, and even so, a few of them still cut through his new clothes, but only through them, and did not hurt the flesh.
Before he reached his peak, the second or even the third round of attacks had already begun, and no matter how fast he was, he could not outpace the crossbow. In fact, this dark iron cage is not high, but it is only two feet, and there is not enough space for him to use his skills, even if those people outside are shooting indiscriminately, there is still a high chance that they can hurt him.
"Whoever can shoot him will be rewarded with 10,000 taels of silver!"
Song Qi stood in the crowd, as if he was watching a big show, and it was like directing a big play, what would happen next seemed to be under his control, or in other words, the fate of the caged man was in his hands, if he wanted him to live, he could live, if he wanted him to die, he couldn't live.
"That's a big deal! But isn't it a little whimsical that you rabble want to hurt me!"
Hearing the purple-robed man's words, everyone around them felt that something was wrong, and even Song Qi's face instantly became solemn. In Nanpu City, there is no one who doesn't know the ability of Fang Shun, the holy hand of picking flowers, he has been able to do disaster for so many years, naturally it is not all luck, whether this cage can trap him is indeed worrying.
Song Qi is also very curious, even if he is a little worried, but in his heart he still doesn't think he can break through this cage. This Xuantie cage played a very important role in his entire plan, and if it went well, they would be able to kill Fang Shun here without Qi Fei making a move in this plan. Therefore, when designing and casting this cage, he deliberately spent a lot of energy and financial resources, and after accurate calculations, even cultivators who had already broken through the God Refining Realm would still not be able to escape from here.
With the bounty, those who release the arrows are naturally more desperate, and their speed of shooting is all accelerated, and at this time, not to mention whether they can shoot accurately, as long as they can shoot one more arrow, the chance of hitting the target will increase a lot. A bounty of 10,000 taels of silver could change the fate of almost any of them, and besides, in their opinion, the way to get this money was not difficult, all they had to do was to shoot the prey in the cage.
In Fang Shun's eyes, Song Qi is just a very shrewd person, he is a businessman, and what he is best at is calculation. Ten thousand taels of silver is nothing to the Song family, but he will definitely not give it away in vain, if everyone present can shoot an arrow, then wouldn't he want to give away hundreds of thousands of taels of silver for nothing!
The reason why he dared to place such an attractive bounty was because he knew that Fang Shun would not be able to be shot by such an arrow and crossbow so easily, even if someone did, there would not be many, and if there was one, he would have to burn high incense. However, if everyone shoots, it will be even better, even if he spends hundreds of thousands of taels of silver more, there is nothing, at least Fang Shun will definitely die, in its opinion, it is worth it.
The arrows became faster and faster, and Fang Shun's clothes were already full of holes, but he was still not injured. In such a situation, armor naturally played a great role, but the main reason was his body protection true qi.
Among the people who release the arrows, there are not a few cultivators, and the few only cultivators have not reached the realm of Judan, without Judan, they can't control qi, they can't control qi, and the arrows released are ordinary arrows, ordinary arrows can't have any effect on a cultivator, he only needs to control the true qi to swim around the body, and he can change the direction of the close-quarters arrows, so it is impossible for an arrow to hurt him.
"Stand back!"
Song Qi suddenly gave an order, and everyone immediately put down the arrow crossbow after hearing the order, and then quickly retreated, and at the same time took out a piece of gauze from their arms and covered their mouths and noses. These people move neatly, as if they have been professionally trained, and they must have been prepared in advance.
In the Xuantie cage, short arrows were almost all over the ground, and when Fang Shun saw those people suddenly retreating, his face did not show joy, but was a little more dignified.
Everyone is veiled, this is obviously the rhythm of poisoning!
As soon as he thought of this, he felt that something was wrong above his head, and he immediately looked up, only to see a cloud of green smoke appearing like a ghost, slowly falling, very slow, but terrifying.
It was all poisonous gas, it was a poison specially prepared for him by Song Qi, which would not hurt his internal organs, but it could erode his true qi. For a cultivator, if he can't fight against qi, he is equivalent to an ordinary person, and at that time, if he uses arrows and crossbows to attack, he will definitely not be able to dodge again!
The purple-robed man didn't have time to think about it, and immediately struck out a few palms, and his palm qi was fierce, dancing wildly in the iron cage like a hurricane, wrapping the faint green poisonous mist surging and scattering, and for a time it permeated the entire stone room.
The people of the Song family all wore black gauze masks, and the masks were soaked in antidotes, so they were naturally not afraid. Now, they just need to wait, wait for the people in the iron cage to be completely impregnated with the poisonous mist, and then they can do it again.
This poisonous mist can erode the true qi, no matter how strong Fang Shun's palm qi is, as long as it is used as the medium of the true qi, it cannot cause any effect on them, they may spread, but they will definitely not disappear, and they may not be able to hurt him for the time being, but as long as he has been trapped here, it will not be long before the true qi in his body can definitely make the true qi in his body not play any role.
The palm wind in the iron cage continued, Fang Shun was no longer as calm as before, some beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead, after continuous attempts, he had also discovered the special features of these poisonous mist, but if he didn't use his palm qi to disperse it, he would lose his combat effectiveness faster, at this moment, he had no other way!
Song Qi, who was outside the iron cage, did not show any smugness because of such a perfect plan, at least until it was confirmed that Fang Shun was dead.
After more than ten breaths, the entire secret room was completely filled with green poisonous mist, and people's vision was also blocked by the poisonous mist, and even the people next to them couldn't see clearly. The secret room suddenly became extremely quiet, except for the constant sound of the friction between the palm wind and the air in the iron cage, no one spoke, they were all waiting for the palm wind to stop, as long as the palm wind stopped, it meant that the poisonous fog plan was successful.
There seemed to be nothing special about the development of things, and Song Qi's worries seemed to be completely unnecessary, because it hadn't been long before the sharp palm qi of the Dao Dao slowed down, which was a sign that the poisonous mist had taken effect, and not long after it passed, the palm qi completely stopped. Song Qi sensed it through his divine sense, which was not too strong, and found that there was silence inside the iron cage, and the silence here not only meant that there was no sound and movement, but also that there was no slightest fluctuation of true qi.
Finally, a smile appeared on his face, and after expressing deep contempt in his heart for the flower picker, he ordered to begin dispersing the poisonous mist. Several of his men immediately groped their way into a secret room, and then carried out several wooden barrels, which were filled with potions, potions that could dispel the poisonous mist.
They spilled the potions at a very fast speed, and the green poisonous mist in the air immediately made a "snort" sound after coming into contact with these potions, like the sound of pouring cold water on a red-hot iron vessel, which made people's hearts furious, but it was also heart-wrenching.
The poisonous fog dissipated surprisingly quickly, and people's horizons gradually widened, and they were already able to see the people around them, and then they were able to see farther, and even the arrows in the iron cage
โโโโHowever, the man in the cage is gone!
Everyone was almost stunned instantly, even Song Qi had a long mouth, his eyes were slightly dull, and he only felt a chill on his back. This creepy feeling is not because there is really someone behind him, but from the fear in his heart, from the prediction of unknown dangers!
"If it weren't for Kaoru'er, these things you did to me, I would definitely return them to you double!"
This time, the voice came from behind Song Qi, and he could hear it very clearly, because the sound sounded in his ears. But he didn't listen to those words, and he didn't even know what he said, what did those words mean?
At this moment, his mind was all on what had just happened and what to do next.
