Zheng Yan ...... Why is there all the snakes in the fish tank...... How are these snakes all green? A green cobra? ”

Xu Meijing was frightened by the snakes in the fish tank, which was what I expected, and it was also Du Jiang's consistent design style, since Xu Jiaojiao had been sentenced to ancient Rome by hanging, she would never let her go so easily, and the seemingly simple operation of the gallows was actually a seamless design.

I have seen this green venomous snake in the magazine "American Geographic", its full name is called the green mamba snake, it is currently recognized as the fastest snake in the world, the average speed of direct response is 0.5 seconds, its green body is like an emerald green bamboo, the body is small, the head is flat, and the teeth are sharp inverted triangles.

This green mamba snake is very poisonous and aggressive, but whenever it is bitten by its sharp teeth, the venom will quickly paralyze people's sensitive nerves, less than a minute will stiffen and lose consciousness, and people can be poisoned to death in the blink of an eye This snake is also known as the kiss of death in ancient Rome, which means that people who are kissed by this green mamba snake have to report to death.

In the two-meter-square fish tank in front of me, there are at least dozens of green mamba snakes caught in it, each mamba snake has an emerald green eyeball, and one by one opens its mouth to show sharp teeth, I remember that "American Geographic" impurities once published such a record about mamba snakes.

Said this green mamba snake generally does not take the initiative to attack other animals, when you see it grinning teeth, then you have to be careful, usually this situation the mamba snake is in a hungry situation, the more hungry the mamba snake will be more aggressive, the magazine photojournalist has taken a shocking photo of the mamba snake biting a cow to death, warning the world to encounter the grinning mamba snake do not provoke it, can run or otherwise it will be used as food by the snake to satisfy hunger.

Obviously, the mamba snakes prepared by Du Jiang were a group of extremely hungry snakes, looking around with their heads probed, their eyes flashing with green light, as if they were about to eat people.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

On the cross, Xu Jiaojiao couldn't help coughing twice, the fan had already twisted the hemp rope, and her neck was already clearly feeling tightened and uncomfortable.

I know very well the consequences of this kind of gallows, it seems to be a simple structure, but it is the ultimate injury and torture to the human body, the force of the hemp rope rotation will be multiplied in geometric form in the end, and Xu Jiaojiao's head will be screwed off little by little, it is not an exaggeration to say that Xu Jiaojiao can be screwed off the whole process of her head, and her head will be torn off and she will struggle painfully for a few minutes before she dies, which makes people shudder to think about.

"Zheng Yan! Let's find something to get the keys out of there! We have to hurry, or it will be too late! Xu Mei stomped her feet anxiously, and it could be seen that she was sincere in wanting to rescue Xu Jiaojiao.

I shook my head and said it's useless, this kind of snake is not the snake you usually see, they are now in a state of extreme hunger, you use an axe to fish it will outweigh the loss, this is the green mamba snake of ancient Rome, the venom will invade the paralyzed nerves when bitten by it, and if it is not treated in a short time, it will be immediately poisoned and die.

As soon as the blade of the axe poked into the fish tank, a green mamba snake quickly sprang out, swam along the axe blade to the edge of the handle and spit out the letter: "Silk ...... Silk ......"

This frightened Xu Meijing hurriedly threw away the axe, and the axe plopped and sank into the fish tank, instantly attracting a group of mamba snakes to entangle it, and the handle of the wood was eaten clean in the blink of an eye.

"Xu Meijing ......" Xu Jiaojiao leaned on the cross and said with difficulty: "Thank you!" Thank you for doing all this for me...... You don't have to do anything for me...... I'm ready to give up lately, I feel like the walking dead, there's no need to live in this world! ”

"Jiaojiao, you can't be so self-defeating, I was cheated out of all my savings by a liar that year, and you also came to comfort me like this! I won't give up on you! Zheng Yan! Don't stand there like a log! What's the difference between you dying like this and the crazy Du Jiang, Mr. Zheng doesn't want to see you like this when he is alive! ”

Xu Meijing's last sentence woke me up, yes, if I don't save myself when I see death, won't I be no different from the crazy Du Jiang?

Although I didn't move, but I wasn't idle, I was always thinking about a way to crack the Roman gallows, according to the logic of normal people's thinking is to cut the hemp rope, whether it is an axe or a kitchen knife, the hemp rope can be easily cut off, so as to end this tormenting gallows, such a flaw didn't Du Jiang think?

I turned around and moved the coffee table in the middle of the sofa, and asked Xu Meijing to go to the wine cabinet in the living room to bring the fruit knives and scissors on it.

Xu Jiaojiao saw me helping Zhang Luo, shook her head slightly and said, "Zheng Yan, I advise you not to waste time, even if you really save me, I won't tell you who the murderer is, and I won't say it when I die...... I'm sorry I can't really say ......."

I said if you don't say it, don't say it, but I will definitely find that person, even in the Netherworld, I will find trouble with him!

"Good Zheng Yan! This is the Zheng Yan I know! Xu Meijing brought fruit knives and scissors, I took a look at them, the scissors and fruit knives were brand new and sharp, and the knives were very fast.

I stood on the coffee table, holding Xu Jiaojiao's cross in one hand and holding the fruit knife in the other hand to try it on the hemp rope on the top of her head, but the fruit knife easily cut a handful of hemp rope.

Xu Meijing happily applauded below: "Yes, yes, yes!" Zheng Yan! That's it! I'll just say the rope can be cut! Hurry up! Jiaojiao's face began to turn red, and the dead knot of the hemp rope was about to twist to her neck! ”

"That's not right! Wrong! This is completely wrong! "I held the sharp fruit knife up to me:

"If this fruit knife and scissors can easily cut this hemp rope, then anyone can save Xu Jiaojiao, even elementary school students can operate the steps, how could Du Jiang leave such obvious flaws, and go to great lengths to build an ancient Roman gallows?"

"Maybe Du Jiang didn't want to kill Jiaojiao at all?"

"Xu Meijing, the possibility you said basically does not exist, the fire back then, Liu Jia's tragedy, including Gao Xiaolong, Yang Zhihong's crimes are all related to Xu Jiaojiao, empathy If I were Du Jiang, I would definitely torture her even harder, there will be no pity here, the fate of you and Gu Meijuan is the best proof!"

"Look at this fruit knife and scissors again, they are all placed in the most eye-catching place of the wine shelf, this is not an accident, but Du Jiang deliberately left it to us!"

Xu Meijing covered her mouth in surprise: "Zheng Yan, are you saying that Du Jiang designed a trap for us?" Waiting for us to jump in? ”

I said with great certainty: "100% is a trap!" ”

I looked closely for a few seconds and noticed that the cut hemp rope was wrapped in a dull yellow thing, similar to copper wire, and I thought of a possibility.

I raised the fruit knife again, pinned my other hand behind my back out of thin air, and cut a section harder, the edge of the hemp rope expanded, and a pinch of red copper wire was revealed, and sure enough! This is definitely a deadly trap!

First of all, hemp rope is not a simple hemp rope, it is wrapped with copper cables!

According to the operation steps of a normal person, I must find something to put under my feet, and then use scissors or fruit knives to cut the dead knot of the hemp rope, which is just a dead end, because one hand of the person cuts the cable, and the other hand will not be able to put on the iron cross.

When two hands touch the copper cable and the cross respectively, a conductor is formed, and the consequence is an electric shock!

The first person to be electrocuted was me! Then Xu Jiaojiao, who was tied to the iron cross, would inevitably be electrocuted.

"If it's an ordinary 220V electricity, it's fine, but if it's a 360V current that is common to mechanical equipment, Xu Jiaojiao and I will be electrocuted by high voltage at the same time!"

Xu Meijing wiped her cold sweat after hearing this: "Oh my God! This design is too dehumanizing, isn't it? Wouldn't Du Jiang even kill you! ”

I hurriedly jumped down from the coffee table: "This method will definitely not work now, hurry up and think of other methods......"

"Zheng Yan really can't do it, we will forcibly destroy this ceiling fan, as for those locks, we will find another way!" Xu Meijing pointed to the slowly rotating ceiling fan and suggested.

I almost didn't think about it and directly shook my head and vetoed this plan, and now I understand that the two strands of hemp rope are wrapped in copper cables, which means that the hemp rope is integrated with the ceiling fan, no one knows how the circuit inside the ceiling fan is designed, violent dismantling is equivalent to hard dismantling a time bomb, the consequences can be imagined, if you can't save Xu Jiaojiao, the lives of both of us may still be put in.

"Ahem, ahem...... cough cough cough ......"

Xu Jiaojiao's cough became more and more frequent, and I noticed that her two hands had been clenched, the complexion of her face began to flush, the blue tendons on her neck and neck were exposed, and breathing began to become difficult.

"You guys get out of here...... Leave me alone...... You don't have to worry about me......"

I turned away from her pained expression, searching in my mind for a way to untie the gallows, and if it didn't work to get from the top of the hemp rope, then I had to start with the cross.

I crouched down to inspect the structure of the cross, and it turned out to be a dead end to the steel plate welded to the surface of the ground, and it was also made of super-hard wrought iron.

Cutting the hemp rope doesn't work, dismantling the cross is blocked, is the real solution still in the fish tank?

I'm back in the fish tank......
