Trapped Beast Chapter 263 The Key
"And then, why did you pay attention to this ancient tomb? Su Yi asked.
"And later... I heard that there is an ancient tomb in this wasteland, and it is said that it contains the 'Immortal Fox Relic Scroll'. Koma replied, "I remember that you once mentioned that the 'Immortal Fox Relic Scroll' was useful to you, so I thought I would come here, so I just stopped by to take a look." ”
Su Yi was moved and amused in his heart, but seeing his serious and persistent appearance, he would never just stop by to see it, after all, he was more moved. I didn't expect that he would take it so seriously just casually.
"But such a secret thing, how did you casually 'hear' about it, could it be a fake news that someone deliberately released?" Su Yi doubted.
"Probably not. Koma Suzu said confidently, then became a little embarrassed again, and said, "You also know that I have good hearing... Actually, that day in the inn, I happened to hear the next room discussing the matter. Listen to them as if they were false. ”
Unexpectedly, this news was heard from the wall, Su Yi was a little uneasy, and said: "Since this news can be heard by you so 'coincidentally', then more people will definitely know about this matter." The 'Immortal Fox Relic Scroll' is not trivial, and how many people have flocked to it, and it is not an exaggeration to call it the world's first strange treasure, right? If we really want to go in, we have to hurry. ”
"But... I've been thinking about it for a long time, and I can't think of any way to do it. No matter how anxious you are, it won't help if you can't open the tomb door. Koma Suzu said with some annoyance.
"How much do you know about tombs?" Su Yi asked after a deep groan, "I think this pit looks like it was dug by tomb robbers, why don't they go in by themselves?"
"I only know a little about the skin, but I can roughly tell that this is a living tomb. In other words, when this tomb was built, the craftsmen left a way in and out. And the only way in and out of this is this tomb door, and every other direction is covered with organs, once an external force invades, the entire tomb will collapse. The tomb robbers didn't dare to try it easily, probably because they weren't sure how powerful the mechanism was. The collapse of the tomb is a small matter, but I am afraid that people will also be buried alive together. If you come across a mechanism with gunpowder, you will be burned to ashes. ”
Juling said, as if she had suddenly figured out something, and said, "I see! It must be those grave robbers who dug up here and found that they couldn't open the tomb door, and it was too dangerous to enter from elsewhere." They were worried about losing their lives, but they felt that it was a pity to leave like this, so they sold the news. ”
Su Yi also felt that this was probably the case, which also explained why there were people from the demon clan who suddenly arrived. There were two groups of people he met alone, but he didn't know how many were elsewhere.
"Doesn't the immortal method work? The art of earth or something. Su Yi touched his chin and asked, although he also knew that it couldn't be so simple.
Sure enough, I saw Ju Ling shaking his head and said: "There is a forbidden formation in there, the tomb owner must not be an ordinary person, maybe the 'Immortal Fox Relic Scroll' is really inside." ”
After thinking about it to no avail, Su Yi and Juling quietly touched the door of the tomb again, intending to study it up closer.
It was a heavy stone door, and it didn't look strange on the outside, except for a small hole in the center. Su Yi tried to look in with one eye, but the light was too dim to see anything.
"This little hole, I studied it during the day. "I can vaguely see some lines inside, presumably a keyhole." Only a special key can be used to touch the mechanism inside, and the stone door can be opened. ”
"The key... The key..."Su Yi groaned, and then smiled: "I think I know where to find the key." ”
Juling didn't question his words at all, but was happy that there was a breakthrough in the predicament, and said happily: "Really, where are you going to find it?"
Su Yi roughly recounted the things between the Yang family and the demon clan, and said: "The woman of the Yang family said that the Snow Tiger clan was worried that they would get a piece of the pie when they entered the tomb, so she planned to kill them in advance. But I guess it's because she has the key to open the tomb door, otherwise Yang Zhuo wouldn't be idle and waste time embarrassing a group of weak humans for a tomb that I don't know if I can open. ”
"And when it comes to weakness... For treasures such as the 'Immortal Fox Relic Scroll', the strength of these people sent by the Yang family is too weak, and they are not qualified to compete with others at all. So I'm wondering, could it be that the people of the Yang family have actually arrived here a long time ago, and Yang Yiyi... Just here to deliver the keys?"
After hearing this, Koma Ling subconsciously looked around and said, "But I circled around during the day to see if those tomb robbers had opened holes elsewhere, but I didn't see anyone else in the vicinity. ”
Su Yi couldn't figure it out, so he could only guess: "Probably I don't want to get too close, so that people can see it at a glance, and I lost the opportunity." At this time, they may be hiding in some dark place and camping their own camps, waiting for someone to open the tomb door. ”
Maybe it's already full of eyeliner... Su Yi thought so in his heart, and before he could give anything, Zhiyuan's voice came from his divine sense, and said, "Brother, there are three eagle falcons watching around here, but the grade is much worse than the one in Chaotian Pavilion last time. Other than that... There are camps in three directions, south, east and west, and it takes half an hour for people to come from there at the earliest. ”
"Understood. Su Yi smiled, "Those who know me are as good as Zhi Kite." ”
The cooperation between him and Zhi Kite is becoming more and more tacit, and often he doesn't need to explain what he commands, just thinking about it, and finding that Zhi Kite has already done it for him.
"It's an opportunity for us. Su Yi said, "If we can get the key in our hands, we can enter the ancient tomb first." When these people arrived, they were left with nothing but an empty shell. ”
"But you have to get the keys quietly from them to buy a little time. It's easier said than done..."Koma Suzu frowned.
"Give it a try. Su Yi pondered the strategy and said, "There is always something that works." ”
It's night, it's late.
In a camp in the wasteland, an old man suddenly lifted the curtain of a tent, stumbled in a panic, and shouted, "Miss, it's over, it's over... The key is missing!"
Yang Yiqi was very calm, and said coldly: "Speak slowly." ”
The old man trembled and said, "I... That's it, miss, the key is gone. ”
"If you don't see it, it's gone, what's there to panic about. Nothing else, let's go out first. Yang Yiqi was still calm, and he didn't even ask how the key was lost, which made the old man puzzled.
"That's... The young master's side..."The old man said again.
"Is it me or is he in charge?"
"Yes, Miss. ”
"Then I said don't care, I don't care. Yang Yiqi said simply, but seeing that the old man was still standing there without moving, he asked again: "You want to know why you don't care?"
"Yes. Although the old man was a little afraid of this young lady, he was always curious, and he always felt itchy in his heart if he didn't ask clearly.
"Well, I'll tell you about it. Yang Yiqi sighed, "This trip is a difficult task, and it is too dangerous for us people. The 'fairy fox scroll' in the tomb is not something we can touch, and the key to open the tomb door is a hot potato. At this time, someone happened to come and take it away, and he wanted to be the first bird, so let him be the first bird. ”
"Anyway, we have brought the key here as agreed, and it is not a breach of contract to allow the tomb to be opened. Since the key is no longer in our hands, it has nothing to do with who opened the tomb door first or who advanced the tomb in the end. On the contrary, you can also sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. In this way, you can also avoid getting involved in the battle for the treasure as much as possible, and save your own little life. As for the 'Fairy Fox Relic Scroll'... With our strength, we can only do our best to obey the destiny of heaven. ”
The old man was grateful, and said in his heart that the young lady was trying to save the lives of a group of subordinates. He sang praises again, and praised Yang Yi for his aftermath before leaving.
