Chapter 69: A Strange Secret Passage
Secret passages.
Blood from a land.
A corpse in one place.
For a long time, Huang Meiren stared at Yang Si with a ghostly look and said, "I really let you say it!" β
Yang Si himself was dumbfounded.
Because the people lying on the ground are obviously Lianyunbao people, you can see from their clothes.
And there were more deaths, roughly estimated, thirty to forty people.
Suddenly, Xu Chao pointed to a corpse and said, "My lord, it seems to be someone under Deputy Captain He!" β
Wang Cheng was stunned for a moment, he knew that the deputy lieutenant of the crane that Xu Chao said was Crane Wushuang, but because he basically didn't know the people under Crane Wushuang, he didn't recognize it.
When he came closer, Xu Chao recognized the identity of the deceased: "My lord, it's Su Ming!" β
Wang Cheng nodded slightly, the deceased was indeed a person under the hands of Hewu, and he had a relationship with him.
However, how could the people of Crane Wushuang die here?
He wouldn't be naΓ―ve enough to think that Crane Wushuang was helping him!
After the raid on the Cockscomb Village that night, He Wushuang and his subordinates separated from them, and Zhang Wentao proposed a joint action, and no one else had birds.
Wang Cheng thought about it for a long time and didn't figure it out, so he could only lead everyone to continue to move forward.
After walking for a few more miles, a little light suddenly appeared in front of him, which was very conspicuous in the dark secret passage.
It was an open space, and when you looked at it from a few tens of meters, you could see a very thick stone pillar inside.
When everyone came here, they were fascinated by the scene in front of them.
The interior of the entire space is octagonal, the ground is octagonal, each side is nearly ten meters long, and the eight sides are connected to a dark and deep secret passage.
The most striking thing is the stone pillar in the center, which is dark brown and has some carved lines on it, and the lines are dotted with some luminous things.
The stone pillar is more than ten meters high, reaching the very top of this space, whether it is with the top or the bottom, there is not a single gap, as if it is integrated with the whole space.
Yang Si looked around and said, "Are we going to fork up?" β
It's not just him who feels this way, it's everyone who does.
This was not the first time they had taken the secret passage, and based on experience, the secret passage should lead directly to the entrance at the other end, without the large pillar-like chamber in the middle.
The faces of the people were complicated, and they didn't know whether this sudden change was good or bad for them.
"My lord, which way shall we go?" Xu Chao asked the question that everyone was most concerned about.
Wang Cheng wanted to say "How do I know", but when he saw that everyone was looking at him blankly, he could only say expressionlessly: "Go this way!" β
He pointed to the secret passage on the opposite side, and the others did not suspect it, because according to the direction, it was indeed the secret passage on the opposite side that led to the entrance at the other end.
Everyone walked into the secret passage opposite, and although they held torches in their hands, they still couldn't dispel the black in the secret passage, and the visibility was less than twenty meters.
After walking for a mile or two, Wang Cheng suddenly ordered: "Go back!" Go back! β
I saw that fifty or sixty meters away, there were nearly 200 people walking here, and the sound of footsteps was very low.
Each of them was wearing armor, and the two leaders were Lu Zheng, the eleventh leader of Lianyunbao, and Feng Mo, the twelfth leader.
Although Wang Cheng's voice was very low, it still attracted the attention of the two masters who had cultivated to the level of martial arts, and the two immediately ordered everyone to release arrows.
"Get down! Get down! β
Wang Cheng shouted, and the man jumped forward several meters and shot at the swarthy front.
"Woohoo!"
A dense stream of crossbow arrows came at them, and now everyone knew what was happening.
Fortunately, Wang Cheng reminded in time, and everyone quickly squatted on the ground to avoid the crossbow arrows, only one person reacted slowly, and his shoulder blade was pierced by an arrow.
"My lord, Li Hongxiang has been shot!"
When Wang Cheng heard that it was his subordinate, he hurriedly ordered: "Use my hemostatic scatter to stop the bleeding for him, and then take Xiao Huandan!" β
He didn't have time to turn back for treatment, so he kept shooting at the opposite side, and with every gunshot, a figure fell.
On the other side, the twelfth master, Feng Mo, was shot several times in the head, and fell to the ground with his eyes blank.
A group of Lianyunbao people wearing armor and holding shields quickly protected the people in the center.
"Old Twelve!"
Eleventh Master Lu Zheng picked up Feng Mo, but saw that Feng Mo's face was covered with blood and he was no longer breathing.
Lu Zheng was angry and shouted at everyone: "Release the arrow!" Kill them all for Lao Tzu! β
"Woohoo!"
The second crossbow arrow came, but Wang Cheng and his gang were already lying on the ground, the torches were extinguished, and the crossbow arrows were almost shot in the air, how could they be shot?
"Doot toot!"
Wang Cheng kept shooting at the black secret passage, less than fifty meters away, the power of the bullets was still there, ordinary shields couldn't stop it at all, and several people in the first row were dealt with on the spot.
Lu Zheng was surrounded by the crowd and immediately decided: "Heavy shield!" Give Lao Tzu a heavy shield! β
More than a dozen tall and strong men held a one-meter-and-five-meter shield in front of them, and the bullets hit it "ding-ding-ding" and failed to completely penetrate.
"!"
Wang Cheng scolded secretly, listening to the voice, he could tell that those shields were all iron, and if he wanted to pick up this iron shield weighing at least 100 catties, he must be a warrior of the Qi and Blood Realm.
This is a big problem!
In the secret passage, the pistol can exert great power, but when you encounter a crossbowman and a heavy shield man, unless the gun in his hand turns into a machine gun!
Wang Cheng shot in search of an opportunity, and waved his hand backwards, telling everyone to retreat.
The bolts kept coming, but the passage was too dark to aim, and it was difficult to reach people who were crouching or lying on their stomachs.
As a result, there are magical pictures of arrows flying in the sky, people crawling on the ground, and squatting and trotting.
Fortunately, Wang Cheng and his group did not go deep into the secret passage, and soon returned to the huge secret room in the middle.
"My lord, what should I do?" Xu Chao said worriedly.
Wang Cheng actually didn't have any good way, he only knew where the six secret passages led, that is, the one in the ancient ape village, and he didn't know the other five at all.
So he returned the way he had come with the others.
Everyone lit the torches again, but halfway through, Wang Cheng suddenly stopped and said in a deep voice: "No! β
"What's wrong!" Yang Si was curious.
"It's really not right!"
It was Xu Chao who spoke this time, and he said with a solemn face: "When I came, there were still a bunch of corpses and blood in this secret passage, but now it's gone!" β
When the others heard this, their expressions all changed drastically.
Yes, there was clearly a pile of corpses and blood on the ground when I came, and I had walked for miles, and I should have come across these a long time ago.
"Will it be cleaned up?" Yang Sidao.
"Impossible!"
Wang Cheng shook his head and said, "Blood stains are not so easy to clean, even if they are cleaned, it is impossible not to smell a trace of blood in the secret passage!" β
He followed his master Zhang Shen for more than a year, and every day he was under the strict guidance of the master to identify medicinal materials, his nose has been trained to be similar to a dog's nose, and he can judge what kind of medicinal materials it is by smell, and even the age of medicinal materials.
But along the way, he didn't smell a trace of blood in the secret passage, and the more he smelled it, the more he felt that something was wrong.
"You mean, we're going the wrong way?" Yang Si was dumbfounded, he didn't dare to imagine.
You know, they walk in a straight line from door to door, and if this can go through the fork in the road, it will be really terrible!
Who has to be able to change the entire spatial structure silently?
"It can't be a ghost, right?" Someone muttered something quietly.
"Shut up! What the hell! Wang Cheng said and glared back at the man.
"My lord, are we going to keep going inside?" Xu Chao asked.
"Let's go!"
Wang Cheng was unswerving, and then asked a few people to take the things he had asked to bring in their hands.
It's so weird here, no one knows what the outcome of going on is going to be.
The group didn't even dare to kick the atmosphere, and only the slight sound of footsteps sounded in the empty secret passage.
After walking another mile, Wang Cheng suddenly shot in front of him, and at the same time shouted in his mouth: "Throw things out!" β
Yes!
Shout out!
After the experience just now, everyone no longer doubted Wang Cheng's order, and listening to Wang Cheng's tone, this time it was clear that they had hit a more powerful one!
So, although everyone couldn't see what was going on in front of them, they took off the package as soon as possible and threw it out.
The shots were all samurai, and their strength was above a thousand catties, and after struggling to throw them out, they were wrapped in the air one by one and kept flying, as if they had wings and did not fall.
But just after the package flew out thirty or forty meters, a bright light flashed in the secret passage, and a huge white jade palm appeared out of thin air, which was actually five or six meters big!
True Element Attack!
Yang Dalong!!
Suddenly, everyone knew who appeared on the other side, and the heart seemed to jump out of the body at this moment.
"Boom!"
Zhenyuan's big hand clapped it, and the packages were shattered in an instant, and countless white powders were scattered.
Zhenyuan's big hand gradually dissipated after flying for more than ten meters, but the huge strong wind had been acting on Wang Cheng and the others dozens of meters away, and he was unsteady on his feet.
Wang Cheng suddenly laughed: "Haha! Yang Dalong, try the "bone powder" I prepared for you! β
Yang Dalong on the opposite side finally dodged the bullet, and at this time, the person had already swept into the air again, but as soon as he heard the word "bone powder", his body instantly retreated.
Behind him, a group of people fled back desperately, how could they care if Yang Dalong would punish them.
Bone powder is an extremely poisonous poison, even the true element of the martial arts master can be corroded, as long as it is stained, it will be like a maggot attached to the bone, eroding the flesh and blood of the human body, and within a moment, the person will turn into a pool of blood.
Yang Dalong retreated to the same place, his face gloomy, because he had already been stained on his body.
"Is Lao Tzu going to die?"
Yang Dalong trembled all over, thinking that he was killing people like hemp, and he was finally going to be killed?
However, he soon realized that something was wrong, there was white powder on his head and face, which was supposed to be beginning to corrode his body, but he didn't look anything unusual at all.
He ventured to stick a little white powder with his fingers, looked closely, and his face quickly turned the color of pork liver.
"Noodles...... Powder! β
He didn't know that he was put on a position by Wang Cheng, and his lungs were about to explode.
Just as he was about to explode, a two-finger-long white porcelain bottle exploded in mid-air, drops of liquid scattered, and an extremely rich fragrance suddenly filled the air.
Yang Dalong didn't fall for it again this time, he could still smell the taste of wine, and took one step.
But the next moment, another torch smashed into the face, followed by flames in mid-air.
This flame meets the flour that fills the air, like a man meets a woman who has been widowed for many years, and the most primitive reaction occurs almost instantly.
"Boom !!"
A deafening explosion rang out, and the secret passage was engulfed in flames in an instant.
It was as if a huge fire dragon had appeared in front of everyone's eyes, spreading rapidly along the secret passage to both sides, leaving only endless fires in its wake.
