After waiting for another cup of tea, guessing that Zhou Fuyun should have gone out, Qiu Shaohu cautiously opened the floor tiles hidden by the secret passage, and climbed to it from there.

He had just changed clothes with Zhou Fuyun, and at this time he was dressed as a businessman, and he was covered in mud, and he was not noticed when he came out, and outsiders looked no different from the other people who were locked up here at the beginning.

Looking around, many merchants were huddled in corners, not saying a word. It's like a warehouse, and it's full of all kinds of baggage, and I don't know what it contains.

Through the outside wall, you can hear frequent footsteps everywhere, and it is clear that those people are still looking for themselves, and there is no one to watch over them. But they never imagined that they were secretly hiding under their noses.

But the current situation is not easy for him at all.

He is only a cultivator of the Nine Fold Realm, and his skill background is not profound, although he has extremely rich experience in actual combat due to his past experience, but there are so many people outside, and it is not something he can handle in one go.

Besides, there are so many hostages here, and so much brimstone ready to set fire to this place.

Zhou Fuyun's rescuers will arrive at the earliest, and the other party will jump off the wall at any time.

Sun Congtian doesn't know where he was taken, will he be used as the last hole card by the other party, making people cast a mouse bogey?

It's as difficult as it is to get so many people out of their own country.

Qiu Shaohu's mind was frantically calculating, considering all the possibilities.

Inadvertently, his hand touched the ground, and his mind was clouded with a dark cloud of doubt.

In the tactile perception, the floor tiles seem to be "flowing" regularly, which is different from the original empty tunnel feeling.

Of course, the floor tiles do not flow, and this subtle tremor sensation is like a person sitting on quicksand, undulating as the particles roll.

Qiu Shaohu vaguely guessed something, and while no one around was paying attention, he secretly picked out another brick crack he touched again.

From the not-so-wide hole, what he saw was flowing brimstone.

"I see."

Qiu Shaohu suddenly realized that those people not only piled up sulfur in the tunnels, but also used this method to secretly deliver sulfur to every part of the entire street.

Under the joints of these bricks, it was supposed to be a drainage ditch, and the Roche Chamber of Commerce also paved a layer of masonry on it for the sake of beauty, taking into account the effect of draining water and walking.

In order to quickly sweep away the stagnant water on rainy days, these ditches extend in all directions, and should be spread all underground.

Conversely, through these ditches, you can reach almost every corner of the street.

And once so much uniform sulfur is set on fire, it can literally burn the whole street to ashes.

The other party is really deliberate in doing this.

Qiu Shaohu took out the compass hanging around his neck, and followed the pointer of the compass to speculate on the flow of sulfur.

The location of these flows is logically going to have some key points that, if changed, would contain the flow of sulphur.

The sun rises in the east and sets in the west, and the yin and yang differences between the south and the north of the mountains and the north, but all the directions are inseparable from the direction of the compass. At the same time, it is secretly combined with the twelve signs of Qimen, which corresponds one by one, but it is not difficult to find it carefully.

Qiu Shaohu checked the compass while carefully lying on the ground to avoid being noticed, and finally found the location of a "living" palace under the floor tiles.

The living are for the sake of life.

Compass measurement, based on oneself, the measured person as the guest. The guest is a living, which means that the flow is non-stop.

Qiu Shaohu lifted the floor tile, and sure enough, he saw that the flowing sulfur was converging underneath, and using it as a node, it continued to flow in other directions.

It should be that in the tunnel below, someone is constantly replenishing sulfur in this direction, and the entire underground is filled through the canal through the machine as a driving force, but unfortunately it was not found when passing through the tunnel before.

But now that I've found out, I can't ignore it.

There was a sack closest to him, Qiu Shaohu pinched it with his hand, and it was full of broken sand.

Secretly tore a hole in the corner of the sack, and the red ochre sand in it flowed out in small streams, and flowed into the sulfur in the canal.

It's like clear water mixed with sediment, and the golden flow gradually fades, and when mixed with debris, it is no longer pure.

As a solid agent for alchemy, red ochre is hard and non-flammable, and when mixed with sulfur, although it cannot completely isolate combustion, its power will be greatly reduced.

After doing all this, Qiu Shaohu quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and once again pretended to fall to the ground without attracting attention.

My eyes inadvertently fell on the pile of sacks next to the red ochre, and I saw that the sign on it was "Soul Condensation".

"Medicinal herbs that are only available in the mountains of Lang Kingdom?" Qiu Shaohu thought to himself, "Why are you here?" ”

……

According to the guidance of the previous book, Dusty hides himself in the huge warehouse while looking for a target.

The aura of Master Wanyin in the previous book just now only appeared for a moment, and then disappeared again, making him confused.

But in an instant, the above made it clear where he should go to investigate, and Dusty immediately rushed there.

He wanted to ask Bai Yu about the reason for the matter, but Bai Yu suddenly didn't know where he was going, and now he had to slowly grope over there alone.

It's easy to say, but even though his cultivation is profound, this kind of stealing is still unprecedented, and the experience is even more terrifying than when he has cultivated to some critical junctures in the past.

"Somehow, there were more people nearby." Dusty's divine sense was keen, and he sensed that the movements of those people had suddenly been chaotic since the beginning of the day.

With the superego of divine consciousness, it seems that there is an extra "eye", and it is contemplating this place in the sky, and all the movements are in full view.

Meng Chen could feel that those people were like a flock of alarmed birds, suddenly circling around, trying to find out the source of the alarm to the end.

Even if you know that these people are not coming for you, it is also a very troublesome thing for these people to approach step by step, trying to avoid as much as possible without alarming them.

Dust was quickly cornered and covered himself with another pile of goods, and his divine sense felt that there were three people wandering outside at the same time, and the slightest sound would be noticed.

"Calm, dusty, calm." He said this in his heart, but he couldn't hide some panic.

Through the outer wall, you can also hear that there seems to be a new stage on the opposite side of the street, and the troupe on the stage has shaken the copper bell of singing to attract everyone to watch. The ringing of the bell "jingling" is non-stop, and it is a little more low than the ordinary bell.

Meng Chen has been born for a long time and does not understand opera, but he can also hear that the singing is a woman's farewell to her husband who has gone on a journey of thousands of miles. The female voice sang very well, the voice was distinct, the words were clear, the modulation was like ten thousand pieces of silk, and the heart was tied to people's minds, and the words were filled with their minds unconsciously and sorrowfully, which made people sigh for a while.

After only a few words, Dusty sighed secretly:

"I am a man outside the world, and I have nothing to do with the things of the world. But if you really see the suffering of sentient beings in this song, if you ignore it, you will also violate the heart of the Dao. ”

"But in the world, there are worldly principles, if you eliminate disasters for everyone, you can't really let them all cultivate immortals and become Taoist priests, otherwise the world will be corrupted, and what kind of system will it become."

"But if you only save one person for a while, the world is difficult and dangerous, and the suffering will come again after all, what is the difference between saving it for a while and not saving it?"

"It's really not good to be left or right, which makes people embarrassed."

But the world does not give people the opportunity to hesitate, and they always have to make a choice no matter what. And once you choose the wrong one, it will be a catastrophe. ”

"Alas, there is no way out."

In his contemplation, a sudden event once again attracted the attention of Dust.

The Divine Sense sensed that two people were approaching here from the other side. One of them appeared to be a tied captive and limped. The latter person was obviously rushing him, urging him anxiously.

I don't know why this person was escorted alone, but from the person who escorted him, he clearly felt that it was the same aura as Bai Yu said.

Dusty moved quietly, and finally climbed to the top of a cargo pile, where he met the two approaching men.

He saw a rich boy being brought here by a rope, and another figure was a little blurred in the shadows.

When Sun Congtian was escorted here, his footsteps suddenly stopped.

He felt his captor stop a moment ago.

In front of him, he saw a figure fall from above, with a white light on his hand, and fixed his captor in place.

The immortal runes shine brightly in the dark night.

Sun Congtian suddenly shouted at Meng Chen: "Leave quickly!" ”

Dusty was stunned for a moment, and then saw that the "figure" that he had fixed with a talisman suddenly scattered into a ball, turned into a bunch of rats, and fled separately on the ground.

Meng Chen's heart was not good, and he immediately saw that farther away, a figure melted into the darkness of the night firmament, turned into an even more dull night curtain, and shrouded him.

The dark night is boundless, and all of them have turned into a gloomy and cold aura, which is a skill cultivation comparable to oneself!

At the same time, more footsteps were neatly directed towards him, and he was surrounded by his whereabouts.

……

Qiu Shaohu felt that his breath was different.

Something seems to be happening not far from here.

He straightened up from the ground again, trying to see what was going on.

As far as I can see, the bag of red ochre next to it is all gone!

The flow of sulphur returned to normal, and the contaminated parts gradually returned to purity.

Qiu Shaohu guessed what should have happened, but couldn't be sure.

A familiar terrifying aura suddenly probed from the void, and he dodged suddenly.

Rubble flew, and the merchants who were locked up here looked in horror at the source of everything, a man sitting on the wall.

Qiu Shaohu also recognized the other party, one of the two people he met in the study before, he was also here!
