Chapter 560: Tricking Pan Huayu
Hearing the sound of the grenade explosion and the screams of several team members, Yang Lei, who was hiding in a dark corner, whispered to the umbrella stone shuai in front of him:
"Old umbrella, good job, I knew it could be done when I saw you let go of the grenade just now. As a sapper, you are really thoughtful. The length of the wire rope should be just right, and it also takes into account that they are eager to chase us and will pass through the tunnel quickly. Listening to the shouting, you have at least three people blown up, powerful, powerful. ”
"Shhhh......h
"Wait and see, the show is still to come, Er Yang, this kid's head doesn't know how to grow, his serial plan is really too powerful, even with a super high IQ like me, it is inevitable that I will fall into the trap he set." Yang Lei still couldn't keep his mouth shut, and still said what he thought in his heart, and at the same time, his eyes were full of expectation.
At this time, Pan Huayu and the others in the soul lamp room were all stunned when they looked at the vast starry sky. Although many of the dark grids on the side walls of this room have been opened, the overall effect of the starry sky has been destroyed a lot, and it doesn't look so dizzy, but it is still very shocking.
After appreciating this rare man-made wonder, Pan Huayu looked at the open dark grids one by one and nodded, these dark grids are enough to prove that Liu Cong and the others' actions are rewarding, Pan Huayu is full of expectations for the iron book that is about to arrive.
"Chase!"
It may be because the tunnel has been opened many times. The wind blowing in from the cracks in the mountain blew the traces on the ground very clean, and there were no clues of Liu Cong and the others escaping, but fortunately, the structure of the room here was relatively simple, there was only one way, and there was no need to worry about chasing the wrong way.
The speed of the team members who pursued forward was not too fast, because of the previous grenade explosion, so they kept looking down and paying attention to their feet when they were advancing, for fear of touching the wire rope connecting the grenade again.
Just as one of the team members at the front of the team was about to step into the room of the Seven Martyrs Guardian Array, Pan Huayu grabbed the back collar of this team member. The player fell on his heel under his strong pull.
"Are you all mushy in your heads? Are your eyes panting? Just know to look down, you see what it is. Pan Huayu pointed to the passage between the soul lamp and the room of the Seven Martyrs Guardian Tomb Array.
The others looked carefully at the place he pointed, and by the light of the fire that flickered in the room of the Seven Martyrs Guardian Array, they saw that there was a silk thread that lay across the middle of the passage, about 1.6 meters from the ground.
Pan Huayu leaned over and looked at both sides of this silk line, this was another wire rope, one end of the wire rope was still tied to the safety bolt of a grenade, and the grenade was placed on the side wall of the room of the Seven Martyrs Tomb Array.
"The person who fires the mine is a master, and the grenade was placed close to the ground, so that when we walk forward, we will focus on our feet, and it is easy to ignore what is in front of us. And the second grenade placed is exactly the opposite, placing the grenade in a high place, which is really unguardable. ”
At this time, Pan Huayu's face was solemn, and he couldn't imagine that someone under Liu Cong could play this kind of dark thunder so well. After pulling out a pair of wire cutters, he cut the wire in front of him.
"Slow down the pursuit, they can't run, it's only a matter of time before you catch them, don't fall for their tricks again."
Pan Huayu, who was the first to enter the room of the Seven Martyrs Guardian Mausoleum Array, saw the eight coffins placed in front of him, and he slowly took out the sheepskin scroll without the frieze rod.
On this roll of sheepskin, the pattern of the Seven Mourners Guarding the Tomb is clearly drawn, and the eight coffins are arranged in a chrysanthemum shape, and one coffin is slightly larger.
If Chen Ziyang was here, he would be able to recognize at a glance that the painting of these eight coffins was exactly the same as the painting on the broken stone slab they had encountered before, it seemed that Wang Dingqian was different from Zhang Taixu, and he didn't want the people who entered the Taoist Holy Land later to face the Seven Martyrs Protecting Tomb Formation head-on.
"Don't touch these coffins, they are all walking around the outside." Although Pan Huayu had not encountered the Seven Martyrs Protecting Tomb Formation before, he had more or less heard of this formation, and Wang Dingqian's scroll was also very painful, so he had to act cautiously.
Especially the corpse of Yasheng on the ground that was split into several pieces made Pan Huayu cautious. Although there are some people under him who know Taoism, they are not masters, and Liu Cong's strength in this area cannot be compared, if they really accidentally open the Seven Martyrs Tomb Protection Array, they can only flee for their lives.
There were no grenades set up in the passage connecting the room where the Seven Mourners Tomb Array was located and the main hall, and now Pan Huayu and his men were simply a little grassy, and every time they passed through a small place, they had to look carefully for a long time, for fear of falling into the trap set by Liu Cong and others.
The corpses of zombies that fell to the ground in the main hall also surprised them for a long time. Seven or eight headless zombies lying together, their bones burned black in the brazier that was about to be extinguished, several zombies with spirit talismans attached to them standing in the corner of the main hall, square corpses, all the scenes in front of them were enough to show that there had been a fierce battle here before.
Without keeping his eyes on Fang Zheng's corpse for too long, Pan Huayu looked at these zombies with an angry expression, and he clenched his teeth, as if he had a deep hatred for these zombies.
"Brother Pan, something is not right, why are these zombies wearing the official uniforms of the Qing Dynasty?" One of the team members suddenly noticed something strange.
In the previous battle with the zombie group, Chen Ziyang and the others' nerves were already stretched to the limit, they only focused all their attention on how to deal with the zombies, and no one noticed that the clothes these zombies wore looked like the official uniforms of the Qing Dynasty.
"Hmph, this is not an official uniform, but a shroud from the Qing Dynasty. These are Wang Dingqian's masterpieces, and it seems that those of his spiritual guards really came from here. I reckon he'd been in and out of here a few times to study the zombies.
After he thoroughly studied the refining method of these zombies, he changed the clothes worn by these zombies to the shroud of the Qing Dynasty, as if these zombies were refined by himself.
This pervert, he deliberately left the correct way to open the Seven Dead Guardian Array in the scroll, just to let the later people only undergo the zombie test he set, so as to show his skills.
Fortunately, these zombies were killed by Liu Cong and them, otherwise it would be enough for us to eat a pot, in Wang Dingqian's tomb, do we eat less of these zombies. ”
After venting the depression in his heart, Pan Huayu started to worry again, and there were three ways to go in front of him at this time. A closed door, an open door, and a long passage connecting the main hall.
Pan Huayu's men were divided into three groups, guarding the three directions that could be pursued, searching for the traces left by Liu Cong and others nearby.
"There's a tightrope here!" Near the open gate, one of the team members found a wire hanging in the middle of the gate again, with a grenade still tied to one end of the wire.
"How's it going over there?"
"The passage is normal here, no wires have been found."
"Take a closer look."
"I've checked it several times, and it's true."
As he walked towards the third tightrope, Pan Huayu's brain was running rapidly.
If you don't count the closed gate, there are only two directions of pursuit, one is the passage, and the other is the direction of the open gate.
It is speculated from common sense that since the wire was found at the open gate, it means that Liu Cong and their escape direction is likely to be there, so they will set up a grenade there, just to delay the speed of the pursuit.
However, there is another possibility, and this third grenade is a suspicious formation. In fact, Liu Cong and the others fled along the long passage, and they planted grenades at the open gate in order to lead the pursuers in the wrong direction.
But there is a third possibility, Liu Cong and the direction of their escape is indeed an open door, and the reason why they set up a third grenade there is not to delay the pursuit, but to deliberately make the pursuers think that there will be a second situation.
No matter how Pan Huayu analyzed, he felt that it was very irrational to rely on a grenade alone to deduce the direction of pursuit, and the probability of any possibility was the same.
Maybe Liu Cong didn't think of so much when they fled in a hurry, but just planted a grenade behind him. Perhaps they had a flash of inspiration as they fled, and suddenly thought of using grenades to divert the pursuing team.
Choosing one of the two has always been a problem, Pan Huayu's head has to blow up, but he can't guess what the truth is.
It wasn't until he cut the third wire rope that he realized that all his previous speculations were meaningless, and this third wire rope was the key to blocking his pursuit.
Unlike the second wire rope, which is directly broken into two when it is cut, when the third wire rope is cut, the cut wire rope does not sag due to gravity, but is quickly pulled away. At the same time, there was the sound of gears turning and a chain shaking.
In fact, the third wire rope is very long, except for the one that crosses the gate, and there is a longer part hidden in the gap in the wall.
Driven by the gear in front of the unopened door, the long wire rope was quickly pulled to the side. With the wire rope crossing, the spirit runes attached to the foreheads of several zombies standing in the corner fell down together. These zombies moved in an instant, killing the dozens of team members who were stunned in the main hall.
Looking at the position of these zombies before, thinking about the way the wire was entangled, Pan Huayu instantly understood, he already knew where Liu Cong and the others were hiding.
Although this answer is very unbelievable and unbelievable, Pan Huayu does already know the answer. He didn't understand why Liu Cong and the others had so much courage to hide there, and he didn't have the heart to think about it. What he admires most now is the man who laid the three tightropes.
The first tightrope cleverly used the urgency of his team to pursue, cleverly used the surrounding terrain, and hid the grenade, which had a lethal effect.
In fact, the role of this first wire is not just to kill how many people on your side, the main purpose of the wire is to instill in yourself the idea that the wire is connected to a grenade and cannot be easily touched.
The second tightrope is the key to the whole scheme. The second wire cleverly rises from close to the ground to high above the ground. Doing so actually serves two purposes.
The first effect is to make yourself think that the purpose of setting the wire is really to kill the team, because the sudden change in the height of the wire can make it difficult to prevent and make it easier to hit this trap.
The second effect is to instill in yourself the idea that as long as the wire is cut, the grenade connected to the wire is not dangerous.
And when he saw the third tightrope, all he thought about was the direction of pursuit, and all he thought about was whether the third tightrope was set up to disturb his hearing and hearing. Instead, I neglected the most important thing, which was whether the third wire should be cut or not.
It is precisely because of the previous two wires that I didn't think so much after seeing the grenade connected by the wire, and subconsciously thought that as long as the wire was cut, the grenade would not be lethal, and it was precisely this cut wire that triggered the real mechanism.
Watching a team member die tragically under the claws of zombies, looking at the bullets that hit the zombies and were bounced off, and looking at the door behind several zombies that connected to the room of the Seven Martyrs Guardian Array, Pan Huayu's heart was dripping blood.
He didn't feel sorry for these dead team members, but he felt extremely depressed that he had fallen into someone else's trap. The person who designed this trap was linked one by one, and the whole scheme was unguardable, and he lost face.
"Who is it! Who the hell is it! Pan Huayu roared hysterically, directing the team to rush into the room where the Seven Dead Guardian Array was located, but the tall zombies were like huge meat grinders, causing any team members who approached them to lose their lives.
Roars, gunshots, and screams were the signals agreed before, and when these three sounds reached the room where the Seven Mourners Guardian Array was located at the same time, the lid of the coffin that did not contain the Mourning Soul suddenly popped open, and Liu Cong and the three tall team members stood up from the coffin.
"Quick! Open the coffin. The four of them hurriedly ran to the nearest coffin, lifted the heavy sarcophagus lid, and threw it aside, revealing Chen Ziyang and Xu Xiaoyuan hiding in the sarcophagus.
Because they were afraid of touching the bones in the coffin and damaging the mud pot under the coffin, Chen Ziyang and Xu Xiaoyuan had a very awkward posture when they took refuge in the coffin, and they could only crawl out of the coffin with the help of Liu Cong and others.
"Your plan is done!" Liu Cong said excitedly.
