Chapter Seventy-Eight: Opening the Mechanism
Tang Nianjing watched as those who were against him were tied up one after another, because there were not enough ropes, and some could only be tied together by two people. He was so proud that he sat down on a big rock, and there were two people behind him holding torches to light him, and at this time, he suddenly felt something move in front of him, and when he looked closely, there was no change.
At first, Tang Nianjing thought that the sky was too dark and he was dazzled, but when this "illusion" appeared for the second time, he stood up suddenly, held the handle of the knife tightly with his right hand, and subconsciously shouted, "Who! β
The two people standing behind him looked vigilantly left and right, and it took a long time before they said, "No one, big brother, what do you see?" Tang Nianjing said, "No, it's not right here, it seems that something is moving!" β
He glanced at the men who were firmly tied together, and saw them crouching on the ground dejectedly, except for the occasional low sobs of children. Tang Nianjing took a torch and shone it in front of him, staring at the nearest house without blinking.
After half a incense, he suddenly shouted, "No, the house is moving!" Everyone became nervous at the shout, and they asked each other "what's moving" and "what's moving", and spun around like headless flies.
Tang Nianjing shouted, "Don't move, look at that house!" Following the direction of his finger, there was an ordinary blue brick house, which was nothing special except for its disrepair. Tang Nianjing's whole body was trembling, and he shouted loudly, "See, it's moving, it's moving!" What the hell, who can tell me what the hell is going on! β
No one dared to respond to him, and no one could respond to him. Their eyes were straight and their mouths were wide open, and they all kept almost the same expression. Yes, if you stare at the house and look intently, you can still feel that very subtle movement.
With a "snap", someone gave himself a mouthful, trying to clear his mind, but the pain only made him see more clearly, that house was indeed moving!
"Ghosts, ghosts! Come on! I don't know how many people's hearts were shouted by this sentence. Those who were tied up at the moment, those who were not tied, all spread their legs and ran desperately. Tang Nianjing shouted for them to stop, but no one wanted to listen.
The legs dominated by fear were full of strength, but in the blink of an eye, the child cried and the adult made trouble, and the people who were still here just now were suddenly left. Tang Nianjing trembled, he threw the knife in his hand violently, and the tip of the knife was straight into the back of the person running behind, the person fell in response, and the footsteps of the others also stopped.
Tang Nianjing realized that what he had just killed was the person he had brought. It was too late to regret it, and he said loudly, "If you run again, it will be the same end, you, you, and you, come back!" β
His hand was just pointing in the air, but the person who looked back at this side felt that Tang Nianjing's finger was himself. They drooped their heads and slowly returned to their place. The corpse with a knife on its back was also carried over, Tang Nianjing walked over and said in a low voice, "Brother, I'm sorry!" With a strong hand, he pulled out the knife and immediately pointed it at the rest of the people and said, "You have arrived here, you have to stay if you want, and you have to stay if you don't want to stay!" You, and you, with torches, go in and see! β
This time Tang Nianjing learned to be obedient, the people he brought went to explore the way, and he had already lost more than a dozen, Jinfu left, and he accidentally injured another one, and there was really not much left. So he pointed his sword at the two men who were not very strong, and looked at them coldly.
If you go, you will die, and if you don't go, you will die, and the two people gritted their teeth, took the torches handed by the people next to them, and strode towards the two closed wooden doors. Tang Nianjing was afraid that they would play tricks, so he called another of his own people to guard the door, waiting for the movement inside.
The night wind was wet and cold, and there was the sound of the river flowing in his ears, Tang Nianjing frowned, and his heart was like numbness. The two men had been in for a while, and there was no sound of talking, no screaming, and it was as quiet as if no one was there. Impatiently, he said to the man guarding the door, "Open the door and see what they are doing!" β
The man nodded, kicked open the wooden door, and the left half of the door had fallen from the door frame, shook it twice, and fell down with a "bang", stirring up dust all over the ground. The man shone it with a torch, turned around very quickly, and then withdrew with a pale face, and stammered to Tang Nianjing, "No, no one, no one inside!" β
"Damn, I knew they weren't honest!" Tang Nianjing was really anxious, he snatched the torch of the person behind him, strode overβ₯ saw that the house was leaking everywhere, and it was colder to stand inside than outside. A row of empty wine tanks was placed against the wall, Tang Nianjing looked at them one by one, and sure enough, he didn't find the shadows of those two people.
He first checked the front and back windows, there were no footprints on the thick dust, and there were no traces of passing, Tang Nianjing couldn't think of what had happened just now, and wanted to walk to the door while being distracted.
When his two feet stepped on the same floor tile, Tang Nianjing suddenly felt that his feet were empty, and the whole person fell down quickly and uncontrollably. He struggled to turn his head and feet so that he could land in a standing position. But the distance of the fall was too close, and before he could do all this, the man had already fallen heavily to the ground!
The piercing pain made Tang Nianjing lose consciousness for a moment, and when he realized that he was in danger, someone next to him had already put a black bag around his head and tied his hands behind his back.
"Who the hell are you and what do you want to do to me?" Tang Nianjing struggled twice, feeling that his left arm hurt badly, and I am afraid that the person who hurt the bone did not answer his question, but kicked him hard in the ass! Tang Nianjing stumbled, and the whole person couldn't continue to maintain his balance, so he fell down again!
The anger of being controlled and the fear of the unknown made Tang Nianjing even more irritable, and he rolled on the ground, kicking hard with his feet without purpose, trying to use this method to stop the other party from approaching. But this trick was really not very clever, he tossed himself to the exhaustion, and finally was stood up by the collar.
"What the hell do you want, gold, silver, pearls and gems, I have them!" If you can't do hard, you will come soft, and the important thing is to be thin. Tang Nianjing thought that he could impress the other party with money, but he never expected that all he would get in exchange was a beating of punches and kicks!
