0279, Who is your enemy?
"Shadow martial arts talent, little brat, can you really see in the dark?" the young man was overjoyed.
"Of course, too lazy to lie to you. Jin Ling'er said very arrogantly: "You are a little brat, pay attention to what you say." ”
"Haha, the little kid is quite arrogant, hmm......" The young man tilted his head and thought for a while, then spoke again, and asked tentatively: "Okay, little guy, my brother is here to test you, tell me, how many fingers are I sticking out now?"
In the darkness, the young man silently stretched out his finger.
"One. ”
Jin Ling'er said without thinking.
The chains moved again in the darkness, and then the frail young man asked, "And now?"
"Three. ”
"And now?"
"Five. ”
"And now?"
"You didn't stick out your finger at all this time, okay. ”
In the darkness, the young man's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise that no one else could see.
He took a deep breath, as if he had made a decision, nodded, and said, "Well, I really believe that you can see in the dark now, so it will be much easier, little brat, you now lean over and see what shape the keyhole of the iron door is?"
"Why should I listen to you?" Jin Ling'er said with a snort.
"You little brat, there's a lot going on...... I am able to save you, so listen to me. The young man cried and laughed: "If you can really see in the dark, then everything will be much easier." ”
"Ling'er, let's go over and have a look. Bai Yuanxing on the side spoke.
Although I don't know the identity of this frail young man, I don't know where he suddenly got his confidence, and I don't know what he asked Ling'er to do with keyholes, but as long as there is hope that he will escape from here, he will always have to give it a try, as long as he is careful next.
And it seems that this frail young man is also a master who does not see rabbits and does not scatter eagles, since he is willing to take the initiative to say so, he should have a certain certainty.
"Oh, okay, Brother Far Away. ”
Jin Ling'er obediently agreed.
The sound of chains dragging sounded in the darkness.
After a while, Jin Ling'er's voice sounded again: "This keyhole is so strange, the outside is round, but half an inch inside, it becomes a triangle, and another inch inside, it seems to have changed again, is it ...... Well, it seems to be ......"
"It's a flat serration, isn't it?" said the frail young man.
Jin Ling'er looked carefully for a while, and his voice came from the darkness: "Hey, how do you know?"
"Haha, of course I know, this kind of lock is called three-inch lock time, it is a rare anti-theft lock, ordinary people don't want to pry it open, I haven't heard of it, haha, but I can't help my famous ......" The young man laughed excitedly and proudly, but the second half of the sentence suddenly stopped, did not speak, but changed the words, and said: "By the way, didn't you touch a piece of iron just now? How many inches long?"
"About five inches. Jin Linger replied.
"How thick and how wide?"
"It's thin, half a finger's width. ”
The young man smiled again and said, "Enough is enough, okay, you come closer, see what shape the shackles and keyholes on my hands and feet are, look carefully......"
"Why do you want to see you first?" Jin Ling'er asked rhetorically: "You want me to help you unlock the lock?" No, I want to see the shackles and keyholes of Brother Yuanxing first, if you really have the ability, help me open the shackles of Brother Yuanxing first, and I will help you." ”
Bai Yuanxing did not speak.
The young man was stunned in the dark, then smiled and said, "You little guy, you have a lot of ghost thoughts...... Okay, I'll listen to you first, hehe, but let's cooperate now, you have to cooperate a little, otherwise, without my guidance, even if you take off the shackles, you can't open the lock of the three-inch lock heart, and you can't get out of this secret room. ”
Jin Ling'er didn't say anything anymore, but leaned over to Bai Yuanxing's side, carefully observed the shackles on his feet and hands, and described them while observing, asking the young man.
"It's all ordinary iron locks, it can't help me," the young man was very confident, and after listening, he said: "You grind that piece of iron, leave a handle two inches long, and then within the first inch, every other way, grind a triangular gap, and every other fathom distance in the middle, grind out a sharp cone, and the last inch is directly narrowed and made jagged, a total of ten teeth, the starting point is concave, and then convex after concave...... I said, do you understand?"
"It's that simple, of course I know. Jin Ling'er agreed casually and began to grind.
In the dark chamber, there was the sound of intermittent metal rubbing.
Although it is a small piece of iron that is not thick, it takes a lot of effort to grind it, worried that there will be a fork, Jin Linger grinds very carefully, don't look at the look of giggling when he speaks, but he is very meticulous in doing things.
Minutes and seconds passed.
Because he saw the hope of escaping, Bai Yuanxing suddenly felt that time was too slow, but he didn't open his mouth to urge Jin Ling'er and not put pressure on this little guy.
A lot of time has passed.
Jin Ling'er's iron piece was only less than half polished.
Bai Yuanxing deliberately dispelled the tense and unbearable atmosphere in the air, and took the initiative to ask: "This brother Tai's noble surname, if you go out, are you going to seek refuge with some relatives and friends? Youyan Guanzhong, I am familiar with it, I can arrange it." ”
"Hehe, relatives and friends?" The weak young man smiled faintly and said: "Where are there any relatives and friends, my father and mother were killed more than ten years ago, and the people of my grandfather's generation are all dead, although this world is big, I have long been helpless, and I am used to it alone, if it is really Youyan Pass outside, then I can enjoy the scenery of the northern country." ”
"This ...... I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned that. Bai Yuanxing sighed, apologized, and then said with affection: "I am also a fallen person, when I was eight years old, my father died on the battlefield of the demon clan in Youyan Pass, I haven't seen my mother since I was a child, and it is said that I disappeared shortly after I was born......"
"Haha, it turns out that your life is so miserable, haha, then I'm balanced. The young man's tone of voice giggled and suddenly became cheerful.
Bai Yuanxing: "......"
He suddenly felt that it was a mistake for him to open his mouth to comfort this cheap fellow.
There was a moment of silence.
"My name is Xiao Buliu. The frail young man asked, "What about you?"
"Bai Yuanxing. ”
"Huh? That's an interesting name. ”
"What's interesting?"
"Haha, of course it's interesting, you see, your name is Bai Yuanxing, my name is Xiao Buliu, we still have a lot of fate, don't stay, of course we have to travel far, hahaha......" The young man laughed again.
Bai Yuanxing was slightly stunned.
Then he opened his mouth in the darkness and smiled silently.
"You seem to like to laugh very much," Bai Yuanxing changed the subject and said, "According to what you said, you have been locked up in this secret room for at least a month and a half, and you have been in such a dark environment all day long, and you must have been able to persist until now, your willpower must be very strong." ”
"At first, I almost went crazy, but then I thought that I still had a great revenge for killing my father and mother, and if I died like this, wouldn't my enemy have to laugh and crack his mouth?" So I was on the verge of collapse, telling myself over and over again that no matter what, I must survive, and then the guy named Li Rui came to deliver food every day, and would chat with me for a while, although it was all some innocuous gossip, and useful information could not be taken out of his mouth at all, but at least there was a little hope every day, and gradually I got used to it. ”
"Who is the person who killed your parents?Is it a martial artist?Or is it a ......" Bai Yuanxing couldn't help but speak: "Maybe I can help you." ”
"Help me?" Xiao Buliu smiled and said: "You can't help me, that person is not small in the entire Southwest Martial Arts Dao, and he is also a well-known Bai Dao powerhouse, hundreds of people who have received his favor, and he is worshiped by countless martial arts people as timely rain, and his own strength is also extremely terrifying, I have sought revenge on him no less than a hundred times, and I have used all means openly and secretly, but unfortunately I can't kill him." ”
"Is your enemy such a person......?" Bai Yuanxing didn't expect it to be like this, and a thought couldn't help but flash through his mind.
"I know what you're thinking, it's a pity you're wrong, my parents aren't demons or anything like that, they were also famous knights in the martial arts of Southwest Dao back then......" The young man's tone was filled with infinite regret.
"This ...... How can that be" Bai Yuanxing was stunned for a moment, then realized something, and suddenly said: "Yes, I understand......"
Xiao Buliu snorted and smiled, directly interrupted Bai Yuanxing's words, and said: "You must have guessed wrong again this time, since my parents are not bad people, then you must think that my enemy is some kind of deception and fame, a wolf in sheep's clothing, who is sanctimonious on the surface, but is actually a devil, right?"
"Isn't it?" Bai Yuanxing said in surprise.
"Of course not. Xiao Buliu shook his head and said: "Although I have dreamed of killing that person many times, I have to admit that that person is a real gentleman, what he does has always been to help people cross people, that person does not sell fame and reputation, does not chase fame and fortune, if I am an irrelevant person, then I will definitely admire him very much." ”
Bai Yuanxing grew his mouth in the dark, and he didn't know what to say, and after a while, he said: "You can use this kind of words to evaluate your enemy, you are a gentleman." ”
"Phew, who is rare?" Xiao snorted without leaving his breath: "If it weren't for that person's name being too hard, he wouldn't be able to kill him no matter how he was killed, if he could be killed with his mouth, I would have asked a thousand storytellers to say that he was a miscellaneous crumb with sores on his head and pus on the soles of his feet." ”
Bai Yuanxing felt that Xiao Buliu's character was too elusive and elusive, so he had to shut up and stop talking, but after this conversation, his wariness of him weakened a lot.
"I've got it. ”
On the other hand, Jin Ling'er jumped up excitedly, and the iron chain clanged loudly.
He finally polished the piece of iron according to Xiao Buliu's request.
