"My lord, this kind of mechanism is actually not difficult to crack, the ground can be real or virtual under human control, but after all, there are rules to follow, otherwise how can the guards who retreated into the hospital just now be able to get through safely? If it's daytime, you can see the clues, but unfortunately it's night, and you can't see the layout clearly. Wang Yong said.

"What I'm saying is that we don't have time to figure out the doorway here, so we can only use stupid methods." Song Nan said.

"So the adults already have a countermeasure?"

"I can't say what to do, but I can't help the palace guards who have died, and I can't say that I have to use their corpses as stepping stones."

Wang Yong patted his forehead and said: "Oh, I forgot this method, at the beginning, Liu Liu and Liu Qi's thieves' nest camp in Taihang Mountain also dug a trap and spread spikes, and the humble duty was to pad the corpse into it, this method is the most practical." ”

Song Nan rolled his eyes, where is it useful to use the corpse as a stepping stone? ordered: "Ordered someone to drag those dozens of corpses on the street, you are leading people to search for some door panels, desktops and other objects, with these things to step on, you should be able to go down the lì guò." ”

Wang Yong hurriedly took people to Zhangluo, and soon after, the Jinyi guards dragged dozens of corpses and carried more than a dozen door panels back, while Song Nan kept staring at the round door of the black hole not far away, there was no movement at all, Song Nan even had some doubts about whether there was another way to escape from the back of the house, and whether Zhu Ningxiao had already fled with someone, and he was anxious.

A dead body was pushed onto the bluestone slab, and from time to time the bluestone flipped and made a clicking sound, and many corpses fell into a trap and were pierced by poisonous blades, bubbling with black blood; But fortunately, there were still wooden planks laid on the corpse, and everyone was safe and sound when they stepped on it.

The sharpshooter on the tree saw that Jinyi Weimen had come up with a way to cross, and he was a little breathless, and shot several arrows in a row, and after the chaos, two more guards were hit by arrows, but Wang Yong's sharp eyes had already seen the location of their arrows, and they bent their bows and fired them in succession, shooting several sniper shooters from the trees.

The closer he was to the courtyard gate, the more Song Nan didn't dare to take it lightly, the formation was too dense, if suddenly archers poured out of the round gate to shoot at the door, there would be no room for maneuver under his feet, and there would be huge casualties; So when he was thirty steps away from the courtyard gate, Song Nan ordered to stop advancing, paved the ground with door panels, and led to the bottom of a dozen big trees on both sides, and led everyone to touch the bottom of a dozen big trees.

Under the big tree must be the field, hiding under the roots of the tree, not only can the trunk of the tree be used as a cover to prevent arrows and firearms, but also can go up to the tree to observe the situation inside the round gate, even if the time is pressing, you can not rush in.

Song Nan and Wang Yong climbed to the top of a big tree, and there was a platform several feet in the canopy, which was where those sniper shooters were lurking just now.

Looking at the round gate again, there are many shadows inside, but you can't see it clearly, there are shadows such as flowers and trees inside, and you can't see where the enemy is hiding, but when Song Nan was on patrol, he made a great discovery, which made Song Nan both happy and worried.

The whole pattern of Zhu Ningxiao's residence is like an egg, the egg white outside is the bluestone paved courtyard where he is located, and the residence inside the round door is the egg yolk, like a concentric circle, the outer layer is the sniper and the machine ground, and the inner Zhu Ningxiao and the outer wall are forever separated by this death zone, no matter which direction you attack, whether you go over the wall or enter through the courtyard door, without the baptism of the sniper archer and the test of the thorny land on the ground, you don't want to approach the inner house at all.

The advantage of this pattern is that you can defend the perimeter of the residence without dead ends, but the disadvantage is that once the enemy invades, when the mechanism is activated, you can only be trapped in it. Of course, Zhu Ningxiao would definitely not take this into account when he designed this, this is the Qingwang Mansion of the city within a city, as long as the assassins are blocked, the guards outside can naturally destroy them, and there is no need to think about escaping at all; And when Song Nan is now glad that under this pattern, Zhu Ningxiao has no chance to escape.

Because of the limitation of eyesight, it was only based on the judgment of the place of vision, in order to confirm this, Song Nan ordered to light the torch and shoot the torch to all parts of the front with arrows to see what was going on, when he saw the inner house wall extending to both sides in an arc and the bluestone ground that stretched out to both sides, Song Nan could conclude that it was this pattern.

One by one, the torches shot into the round door of the inner house, some landed on the left side of the round door and burned, while others fell to the ground and immediately went out, making a clear and audible snorting sound. The torch ignited the dead branches of the flower and tree, and burned brightly, and the firelight illuminated a large area within the round gate, but there was not even a ghost shadow to be seen, and there was not even a single ambush in the round gate.

On the inside of the round gate, a stone bridge can be faintly seen leading to more than a dozen houses on the inside, and Song Nan only then understood why the torches were suddenly extinguished, and the small river that surrounded the houses under the bridge was artificially dug, and the houses in the inner house were surrounded by the river like an isolated island.

"This old thief is also pitiful, for the sake of safety, he actually wrapped himself in this prison-like place on the left and right three layers, the old thief was really afraid of death, but this time, he himself trapped himself to death." Wang Yong scolded.

Song Nan said: "Don't take it lightly, it's still like this outside, and there must be weirdness inside." ”

Having said that, since there was no one ambushed behind the round gate in the firelight, the next action was much easier, leaving one guard to watch and reconnoiter at the top of the tree, and the rest of the people quickly moved the corpse and plank, quickly arrived at the round gate, left the bluestone slab ground behind, and stepped on the ground.

Everyone opened their eyes wide and slowly entered the round door, just as they had just observed in the trees, along the arc-shaped inner wall was a row of low bushes, which had been burned to the point of beeping at the moment, and under the firelight, a stone bridge was not far in front of them, and at the end of the bridge was the island-like ground, and Zhu Ningyan was hiding in one of the dozen or so houses with closed doors and windows.

"There's something weird about this river." Looking at the river up close, I found that in this cold New Year, the river water was steaming white.

Everyone can feel the water vapor with a hint of warmth, the water of this artificial river is actually warm, and it is unknown for a while.

"It's not surprising that there are many hot springs in Ningxia Town, maybe this is the one that the old thief will enjoy." Wang Yongdao.

Everyone was relieved, there are seven or eight warm springs in Ningxia Town, some of the guards have gone to take a bath, smelling this water vapor is slightly pungent, it is indeed like hot spring water, although Song Nan feels a little uneasy, but he can't think of anything strange, it is not surprising that there is a hot spring in Zhu Ningyao's residence, maybe it is with this hot spring, he chose to live here, hot spring is one of the high-end enjoyment of this year.

Seven or eight guards took the lead in opening the way, carefully stepped on the arched stone bridge, and walked along the stone stairs step by step to the bridge, Song Nan and Wang Yong stared nervously at the movements around them, for fear that something would happen, and suddenly, Wang Yong shouted: "There are people under the bridge." ”

The people looked in the direction he pointed, and saw six or seven black heads floating in the water under the bridge, apparently someone was diving in the water under the bridge, and when they heard the movement, the people in the water made a loud noise under the bridge, as if they had struck something with a hammer, and then swam quickly to the opposite bank. Everyone raised their firearms and fired, only hitting the two people who were dragging behind, and the rest climbed ashore to run without a trace.

Song Nan was wondering what these people were doing under the bridge when he heard the stone bridge clicking, and the stone bridge, which looked unusually strong, shook like a nightmare.

"Oh no, the bridge is going to collapse, come back quickly." Wang Yong shouted.

Seven or eight guards on the bridge hurriedly fled back, but it was already a step too late, and the stone bridge collapsed in an instant like a sand tower, and all but one of the seven or eight guards on the top jumped back to the shore, and the rest all fell into the water with the collapsed stone bridge. For a while, the rumbling sound was endless, and the smoke and stone chips flew wildly, and Song Nan and the others on the shore had to quickly shrink to dodge, and after a while, the sound stopped for a while, and the smoke and dust dispersed slightly, so they straightened up and covered their mouths and noses to check.

Several guards fell with the bridge, suffered a lot of injuries, tossed and shouted for help, Wang Yong hurriedly ordered someone to rescue, was busy when the water on both sides of the river rolled, strange sounds; Everyone looked through the firelight, and saw dozens of waves coming from both sides, and something seemed to be approaching under the water.

In a moment's astonishment, two points of green light on the left side appeared in everyone's field of vision, like two points of green color flashing like ghost fire, Song Nan reacted immediately, it was the eyes of a crocodile, and later generations like to explore in the wild, and it is often seen that staying on the shore of the crocodile lake at night is often seen, and just one glance is enough to conclude.

"Help, it's a crocodile." Song Nan shouted.

"What?" Everyone didn't understand what Song Nan was talking about.

"It's a poisonous dragon." Song Nan had to explain it with the common name of the crocodile in this year.

"Poison Dragon!!" The guards screamed like a pot, and some people had begun to fire fire guns into the water on both sides, panicking. Although the tigers, leopards, lions and wolves are terrible among the wild animals, the most feared thing is this devilish creature called the poisonous dragon, which is covered in thick armor, difficult to penetrate by sword, fierce and cold-blooded by nature, and is really a nightmare for everyone.

The guards who fell into the river hurriedly climbed to the shore, the river bank was steep and slippery, the light was blurred, and the fear of the poisonous dragon approaching made their bodies not obey the call, and they just climbed halfway up and fell into the water. Three people were dragged ashore here, and the four people in the water let out a shocking scream, only to see the water splashing, the sound of the water shaking the sky, and more than a dozen poisonous dragons had bitten the four guards and rolled violently.

Song Nan was horrified, realizing that these four people were probably unlucky, once the crocodiles began to die and roll, it meant that several crocodiles had bitten their prey and were cooperating to eat; The screams continued, but the hook was thrown down, but it hooked the round body of a crocodile, dragged it into the air and was bitten by the crocodile's head, the rope broke in two, and fell back into the water with a pop.

"Brother. Hold on. The guards on the shore screamed in amazement, and the cries for help in the water below gradually faded, leaving only the sound of a splash.
