Chapter 027: Step by step
At this time, in the castle behind the Fox family, there were already angry scoldings, screams, and the roar of the arquebus barn. It's just that these sounds are a little dull, as if they are coming from an enclosed space. Then there were flashes of fire all over the castle, and there were ghostly figures shuttling through the corridors of the castle like demons, doubling down on the mysteriousness and unpredictability.
And these people, undoubtedly made by the guards of the Fox family and Orochimaru, are loyal subordinates.
Of course, everyone's inference was correct, and there was indeed a shortage of people guarding Fox Castle at this time. But the previous wave of resistance outside the gate naturally could not be the last force, relying on the mechanism in the mountainside to launch a counterattack, undoubtedly the biggest weapon to entangle with the enemy.
At this point, the worst outcome is to kill a few badly injured guards, take the keys they dropped, and walk away, but the best thing is to get the real wealth that has been accumulated in the castle for decades!
Although it is likely that there is some kind of restriction on these riches, it is inevitable that a few of them will be made a lot of money, and the adventurer who stirs up the storm and even raids the enemy's lair will certainly gain a lot of prestige, so that the benefits are more than much more than picking up a few small shrimps that have slipped through the net in the chaos outside.
After solving a trap in the fastest way, Lao Huang continued with the pirates behind him.
After searching cautiously for more than ten minutes, the face in the passage was as clean as if a locust had scraped it, and even the most calm old pirate couldn't help but start scolding his mother.
At this time, a pirate suddenly found that the lamppost in the hand of the maid holding the lamp in the corner of the wall was made of gold, and he didn't say hello when he saw that he was happy, and directly grabbed the lamppost and pulled it, and suddenly shot a large rain of arrows from the dark roof, and the surface of the arrow was quenched with black black poison.
This poor baby has just taken off the lamp, and his ears remembered the dry sound of the rolling and biting of the organ bearing, although he was so frightened that he was in a cold sweat behind him, but he was even more reluctant to give up the lamp in his hand, and just pulled out the lamppost with the strength to eat, and the whole person turned into a bloated humanoid hedgehog, but even if he died, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows still couldn't help but smile with joy ~~
Feng Xiaoxi, who was walking with Lin Xiao, was a little dumbfounded, "Why does he want money and don't want to die?" ”
Lin Xiao replied leisurely: "Who is rich and wants to be a pirate, it is not forced by the word 'poor'. ”
Two more traps were triggered along the way, and the pirates didn't have enough oil and water to stuff their teeth, and at the same time they lost six more men, and their momentum suddenly became sluggish - this is precisely the biggest flaw of the pirates: aimless, undisciplined, hot-spirited for three minutes, and short-sighted, no wonder they will be chased everywhere by the navy
Seeing this situation, there were already pirates who wanted to back down, and followed hesitantly, unable to do their work, looking like a hanger.
Lao Huang's brows furrowed, and he shouted loudly:
"Fools, cheer me up! Don't forget that this is the most heavily guarded treasure room of the Fox family, and we were able to get into it with knives and torches tied to shriveled money bags, because it took a whole thirty years to seize a great opportunity that had only appeared! If you look like you like the mud that can't support the wall, it will take half a day to walk through a passage without the slightest danger...... It's better to go home and drink milk as soon as possible!! ”
Fortunately, Lao Huang's prestige among this group of pirates is extremely high, and if someone else greeted the female members of their family like this, I am afraid that an unstoppable bloody war would have broken out long ago.
Speaking of this, Lao Huang slowed down his tone, looked at the submissive pirate buddy in front of him, and said in an affirmative ironic tone:
"Our business is to grab food in the sea of swords and fires, everyone is competing for the first, you are hiding behind your ass and eating fart! If you wait a little longer, you may not even be able to drink the soup! ”
When Lao Huang said this, an indescribable flame had burned in his eyes, and his roar echoed in the corridor of the underground castle, and the pirates who were fierce and fierce all had the feeling of looking at each other for a while, and they couldn't find the words to refute it, and they even deflected away from Lao Huang's eyes as soon as they touched, and they didn't dare to look at them. What's even more odious is that Lao Huang threw out a killer idea at this time:
"Fools, wake up! Do you think you'll get the treasure by twisting your neck and patting your ass here? Every piece of gold that comes from here has blood splattered and howling souls! If you want to make a lot of money here, you have to exchange your blood and fight with your life! ”
Lao Huang's words may be exaggerated, but it is undeniable that the truth in his words occupies seven or eight layers, which undoubtedly adds a fanatical incitement to his words, which has nothing to do with charm, but because Lin Xiao behind him is too good at capturing the dark side of people's hearts - the dark side in the hearts of pirates will definitely not be lacking.
After a short silence, the low morale finally turned out to be instigated by Lao Huang clapping his palms vigorously:
"Bunnies, come with me and get what belongs to us back!"
"Whew!"
Feng Xiaoxi, who was following behind, turned slightly red, and asked weakly in a low voice, "Are we going too far?" Obviously there is nothing in the castle, and you still deceive them like this"
Lin Xiao smiled:
"It's a white lie, and God will forgive us."
Along the way, very little treasure was seen, which is indeed doubtful. But if the pirates had known that the adventurers had calculated that ten liquid machines with remote video transmission functions had been sent here first, they would have already slashed with red eyes and blood spitting from their mouths.
The "overseas specialty" liquid metal machine presented by the big businessman Amstro is just child's play. Without receiving an order, the head of the Fox family, who can be directly equated with the indigenous/illiterate, will never be able to see through the loophole.
It's like a woman wearing diamond earrings, when she goes out to the sauna and health club to soak in the hot springs, she will not throw things away hastily, at least she has to put them in a small bag with rouge buckles.
In the same way, after the initial play, more than seventy percent of the "rare treasures" transformed by these liquid metal machines may be locked into the treasure room by the owner of the Fox family - this is the important point where adventurers take the lead step by step!
With the pirates circling around and delaying time, the men assigned by each team have already arrived at the place where the treasure is located one step ahead of the other, and have carried out a frenzied sweep and plunder!
However, this kind of morale is not destined to last, like a short-lived flash in the pan, which will soon wither, and the rebound will be more intense. So Lin Xiao, who was walking at the back, issued an instruction again:
"It's time to close the net"
After no detour this time, Lao Huang took the lead in walking in the darkness for about three or four minutes, and then saw a dazzling fire coming from the fork in the distance, followed by more than a dozen blood-soaked pirates striding out of the corner, although these savage and rude fellows were already tattered like beggars, but their expressions were like a king who had won a battle and returned triumphantly.
Most of the pirates sang the horn flutes that were popular among sailors and pirates, and seven or eight men in the center of the crowd could be seen hobbling with their loads, carrying four huge sturdy chests with brass hoops, oak planks, and elaborate patterns, and of course, the Bauhinia family coat of arms of the Fox family.
The pirates, who were still a little depressed and languishing, after seeing this scene, immediately seemed to be Jin Kela who had eaten hormones, and charged up with a sprint faster than the wild dogs that had escaped, and in an instant they came to this group of pirates to get a piece of the pie, but they were mercilessly chopped off an arm by the high pirates led by them, and shouted with glaring eyes:
"The treasures are all in it, don't you scatter your hooves to move it, dare to come and rob Lao Tzu's things, don't you look for death?"
Hearing this, the smell of fire/medicine smoke that was still tense and about to explode suddenly dissipated, and the pirates rushed to the depths of the ancient castle without looking back, following the faint shouts ahead. Even the guy who had one of his hands cut off was holding his broken wrist and rushing with his head down, not looking like he was injured at all!
The dark passages, the heavy smell of blood, and the terrible screams that come from time to time, this kind of miserable scene is like the most beautiful music in the world!
Lovely treasures, here we are!
