230 Surprise Attack
Because someone else's smiling face is good, the scar forgets the pain, and the entanglement between himself and Zhang Yun will inevitably end in his defeat!
The passage is surrounded by some ordinary stones, which are covered with the roots of some kind of plant, and the damp breath makes people's scalps numb, which will invisibly resist entering the passage, Zhang Lingyun took out a long knife from the storage ring, cleaned up the roots blocking the entrance at the entrance, and then sat cross-legged and released his spiritual sense to spread around.
Unlike in the past, the spiritual sense would be rebounded back, Zhang Lingyun saw the structure of this underground building for the first time through this unprocessed passage, Zhang Lingyun used the reverse thinking mode to record the impenetrable location of the spiritual sense, roughly deduced the true appearance of this catacomb, and deduced the location of the thousand-faced sand cat and others who had lost their traces.
This general's tomb is like the structure of a courtyard, the outermost movable wall is the gate, and the location of his current position is the east wing, according to the speed of his own magic circle waste wood, it is inferred that the thousand-faced sand cat should have reached the back of the tomb now, that is, the resting place of the owner in the courtyard...... Main house.
"Let's go, we've found their exact location!"
Zhang Lingyun directly snatched the night pearl in Situ Wan'er's hand, and waved it vigorously with a long knife in his hand, cleaning up the roots of the plants that blocked the way, so that the two of them could pass normally, but before they had gone far, Zhang Lingyun found that there was a fork in the road ahead, and he had just released his spiritual sense and did not find its existence, which may contain a legendary treasure.
With the help of the light of the night pearl, you can find that the stone walls on both sides of the fork in the road are carved with murals, the general is standing on the top of the high mountain, there seem to be flowing clouds around him, he is looking around the mountains with a look of contempt for the common people, and the mural next to him is still the general with a solemn expression, but between the eyebrows is obviously much older than the previous mural, he seems to be walking towards a place similar to a tomb.
The structure of the tomb was not much different from that of his spiritual sense, it seemed that this mural was the structural diagram of the general's tomb, Zhang Lingyun was too lazy to look at the remaining murals, and continued to walk along the fork in the road that led to the location of the thousand-faced sand cat.
Not long after she embarked on this fork in the road, Situ Wan'er suddenly felt an ominous premonition, and suddenly turned around to check if there was anything unusual, but she was shocked by the scene in front of her and broke out in a cold sweat.
"Ah...... Fire! Stinky man, run, there's something weird about this place!"
Situ Wan'er never knew that her perception ability was so strong, and it was a little surprising that she was still thinking about it so easily just now, so she slapped herself in the face with this strange fire, this ghost place is really a good and not bad spirit, and she can't give birth to any thoughts of escaping.
There is no way to defend such a narrow place, what Zhang Lingyun thinks about most is to escape, and during this period, he did not forget to release his spiritual power to draw a talisman in the void and attach it to himself and Situ Wan'er, although he hates this woman very much, but it is not the best punishment to let her be freed so easily.
The humid air of the semi-enclosed environment, the two of them didn't run long before they began to pant, Zhang Lingyun looked back from time to time to check the situation of the fire, and couldn't help but have a strange thought in his heart, this fire seemed to be controlled by someone, no matter how fast or slow he was, it was not far behind, as if he was deliberately teasing himself.
There is something wrong with this passage, according to the situation of his own spiritual sense to explore the terrain, he should have run to the end of the passage a long time ago, the more Zhang Lingyun thought about it, the more wrong it became, and he was a little tired from too much physical exertion, so he simply stopped, wanting to see what the mystery of that ghost fire was.
"Who is hiding in the shadows, don't come out to talk!"
Zhang Lingyun, who stopped suddenly, wanted to verify whether his guess was correct, so he shouted loudly into the empty passage, and the faint echo spread into the distance, but unfortunately no one answered, and the momentum of the burning fire did not diminish in the slightest.
"Hey...... If you want to die, don't pull me!"
Situ Wan'er, who followed closely, did not receive advance notice, and couldn't stabilize her body and hit Zhang Yun's broad chest directly, but fortunately, her reaction was quite agile, and she could avoid the side of the cheek where the medicine was applied, otherwise this face would have been completely explained here.
"Shut up and look at ......!"
Zhang Lingyun raised his hand on Situ Wan'er's shoulder, suddenly turned his body to look at the rear, the fire that was still extremely fierce just now, slowed down his movement while Situ Wan'er stopped, although the strange fire was still burning, but finally hovered a few steps away from the two, as if observing his next move.
Zhang Lingyun was about to get past Situ Wan'er and study this strange fire, but the fire seemed to feel the danger, and it rushed straight at Zhang Lingyun and the others with lightning speed, and it had the momentum to burn the two of them to the ground.
"Ah......h
Situ Wan'er was frightened by the sudden attack, all the means of defense were left behind, the first thing she thought of was to protect her already injured face, Situ Wan'er, who turned her back and waited for the attack to come, did not feel the burning sensation of the scorching flames, and when Situ Wan'er opened her eyes in surprise, she saw the protective barrier standing in front of her, and successfully resisted the attack of the burning tongue of fire.
The protective barrier that stands with the void is like a transparent glass, while successfully blocking the strange fire, people can also clearly see the details of the burning fire, never felt the form of the flame so closely, Situ Wan'er was attracted by the beautiful scene in front of her, and even wanted this moment to last forever.
"How can a woman be in a daze at any time!"
Zhang Lingyun squeezed sideways through the not spacious passage, and was about to use the condensation charm to counterattack, when the surging strange fire suddenly weakened the fire, and in the surprised eyes of the two, the roots of the plants on the ground dissipated at the same time, as if they had never appeared.
"Well, why is it gone?"
Situ Wan'er, who was slightly disappointed, pursed her lips and looked at the direction where the strange fire disappeared in the distance, with a reluctant look, and recalled the faint blue color when the flames filled the protective barrier.
"It shouldn't have burned, why is it so miserable!"
Zhang Lingyun slowly recovered from the huge shock, looked at Situ Wan'er with a strange look, thought that her brain was roasted and something was wrong, and circled around her with the night pearl, and after not finding any injuries, he only threw down a word of disgust, and continued to move forward on his own.
Situ Wan'er, who was sure that the blue flame could not be reproduced, bit her lip slightly, and shook her head as if she had just woken up from a big dream, although she was not hurt in any way, but what did Zhang Yun's disgusted look mean?
Thinking of the panicked situation just now, Situ Wan'er, who didn't want to bring humiliation on herself, had to silently endure the sarcasm of the other party, and followed Zhang Yun who opened the way in front of her, constantly thinking about how to get back face in her mind, and the dull atmosphere was until a stone arch appeared.
Looking at the stone arch in front of him, Zhang Lingyun's heart was like a heavy stone falling to the ground, standing in place and staring at the arch quietly in a daze, all the previous encounters proved that this cave is not simple, and leaving alone is not his own form criterion, and now only by finding the thousand-faced sand cat and others can he leave this place as soon as possible.
"Click, click...... ,”
Zhang Lingyun didn't dare to be too radical before he found out the situation, and cautiously stepped into the arch, when Zhang Lingyun's heel just fell into the range of the arch, the sound of the operation of the mechanism suddenly came from all around, and the originally stuffy air around him slowly surged.
Zhang Lingyun, who didn't know what was going on, couldn't help but be shocked and secretly said that something was wrong, the first thing that came to mind was to wait and see what happened, Zhang Lingyun kept the posture of triggering the mechanism motionless, and waved his arm to draw a talisman in the void.
"There's a mechanism here...... Stay away!"
Zhang Lingyun scolded Situ Wan'er loudly, not wanting to be distracted to take care of her when dealing with danger, and in an instant, more than ten talismans appeared around Zhang Lingyun, wrapping him in them, like a fat dumpling.
Situ Wan'er had just run out two steps, and a dazzling white light suddenly lit up behind her, thinking that Situ Wan'er, who had escaped the danger, her heart fluttered inexplicably, as if something important was about to be lost, Situ Wan'er didn't care about the possible danger, and suddenly turned around just to confirm whether the stinky man was still safe.
"What a fuss, I thought the sky was going to fall!"
The originally pitch-black arch was as bright as day, and Situ Wan'er realized that it was just a false alarm, and Zhang Yun's bastard boy just triggered the lighting mechanism in the arch, and then accused him of being timid with a disgusted face.
Zhang Lingyun was too lazy to take care of that woman, his heart was full of the safety of the thousand-faced sand cat and others, normally he didn't go the wrong way, he should have joined them here, but this natural cave that looked extremely open, there was no place to hide, but there was not even a trace of a fight, so Zhang Lingyun couldn't help but suspect that the previous spiritual sense investigation was an illusion!
Zhang Lingyun walked cautiously and slowly, and did not trigger the mechanism that might be hidden, so he was relieved to boldly search for the cave, where the natural cave is dozens of zhang wide and narrow, and the empty ground has no decorative ornaments, only a very discordant chair is placed in the middle position, and murals are carved on the surrounding walls.
Every few steps around the cave, a square stone protrudes out, and there is a carefully polished groove in the middle of the stone, and the cave wall corresponding to each stone block has a finger-sized hole, and the strange viscous liquid overflows from the small hole, and slowly flows out along the groove very regularly.
When the viscous liquid touched the dark sand underneath the four pieces, it would emit a dazzling white light, and although Zhang Lingyun didn't know about the special reaction between them, the lighting mechanism he had just triggered should be this thing.
"Hmph, having a talisman is pride!"
Situ Wan'er didn't have a small personal means of protection, and she was afraid that walking around at will would trigger the mechanism and causing unnecessary trouble, so she could only stand in front of the stone arch and do it in a hurry, watching Zhang Yun slowly walk towards the depths of the cave, in order to alleviate the irritability in her heart, Situ Wan'er was still comforting herself, Zhang Yun's bastard boy was doing the humble work of a pawn, clearing all potential dangers for herself!
Zhang Lingyun slowly walked along the depiction process of the mural, watching an ordinary peasant boy who lost his relatives and homes because of the rampant banditry, and was determined to take revenge and join the emperor's army.
"Damn, it's a pair of armor!"
Zhang Lingyun, who was concentrating on checking the wall, found a vague figure in a relatively dim corner, and the sudden fright made Zhang Lingyun tremble, and his back was instantly covered by cold sweat.
Although the lighting mechanism in the cave has been activated, not every corner is full of light, in this environment, whether it is a trap mechanism or some special strange existence, it is not what Zhang Lingyun hopes to encounter, it is best to find the thousand-faced sand cat as soon as possible and leave safely, if you are so startled, before you can meet and fight with the people, you will be scared out!
"This armor should be very strong!"
Situ Wan'er's nerves, which were already tense to the extreme, relaxed in an instant after making sure that there was no danger, forcibly suppressed the urge to burst into foul language, and followed the route that Zhang Yun had just walked, and sure enough, under the light of the night pearl, she found the metal armor that could wrap her whole body.
Looking at the metal armor that was smooth enough to meet the human figure, Situ Wan'er's first thought was to find a treasure, the forging level of human beings in the mortal realm was very limited, even the Qing Dynasty, which introduced many advanced instruments in foreign countries, could not achieve such exquisite craftsmanship.
"What's in your head, woman?"
Listening to the conversation of the other party's bull's head and the horse's mouth, Zhang Lingyun, who was already nervous, felt that his head hurt even more, and with a look of embarrassment that he wanted to cry without tears, he slowly approached the armor standing in the corner, but he didn't expect to be attracted by the exquisite craftsmanship of the armor.
The owner of this armor should be a tall and burly man, and his status is extremely important, the delicate and heavy armor on the chest, arms, legs and other vulnerable parts, all add gold armor made of cold iron, the joints that need to be flexible to operate, the size of the iron rope is equal to the fingernail, the nails are tied together with each other, and there is not a nail or a thread of silk.
Zhang Lingyun slowly pulled out the long knife worn by his armor waist, the cold iron long knife with a faint and cold light, even after a long time, it still gives people the illusion that iron can be sharpened like mud, and people can't help but feel a sense of awe.
"Dumb-headed dirt buns, I don't know if I put good things in front of me!"
Situ Wan'er grew up in an official family, with that kind of arrogant nobility in her bones, she looks down on those monks from the countryside, most of them act with some extraordinary talents, and after reaching a certain cultivation, they will run rampant and domineering, and they don't understand the true meaning of cultivating immortals.
Thrilling along the way, Situ Wan'er, who was already extremely obsessed with treasures, almost forgot her usual style of acting, Situ Wan'er, who was in a relaxed mood, had her eyes glowing, and began to think about how to take Zhang Yun away, so that she could swallow the armor alone without knowing it.
"I'll be able to suffocate you for a while......!"
Just when Situ Wan'er fantasized about putting her armor in danger of the imperial court, Zhang Lingyun, who was not far away, felt a strange aura fluctuation, and her figure flashed and rushed to Situ Wan'er, kicking it away with a volley, and Situ Wan'er, who was caught off guard, exclaimed, and fell heavily to the ground with her arms covering her face.
"You have ...... Sickness...... Ahh
As soon as Situ Wan'er wanted to get up and ask a certain bastard what was crazy, she felt a fierce wind sweep by, and a cold light swept from the place where she had just stood, and the huge armor that she regarded as a treasure was stepping out of the dim shadows with a cold iron broadsword.
At this time, Situ Wan'er only felt that her scalp was numb, she was just stunned for a while, and the armor didn't know when it moved, if it weren't for the kick that Zhang Yun hurriedly kicked over, it is estimated that she would have died at this time!
Although Situ Wan'er dodged the fatal knife, the murderous armor did not let her go, like a thinking living person, suddenly changed direction and waved the long knife in his hand, ready to cut at Situ Wan'er, who had no sense of defense.
"Waste!
Looking at Situ Wan'er, who didn't take his life seriously, Zhang Lingyun really couldn't bear to directly remind the other party in a foul language, and at the same time raised his hand to draw three divine fire talismans, waved his hand and threw it towards the large armor, hoping to divert the attention of the large armor, and no longer pick the soft persimmon that can come out of the water with a needle!
"You cross-dresser, what's so arrogant, why scold me!"
Situ Wan'er, who had just escaped the danger, had just changed her attitude towards Zhang Yun in her heart, but when she heard the most unbearable words in her life, she instantly rushed into her brain with anger, ignoring her strange half-lying figure, and roared back loudly.
For Situ Wan'er, who didn't have a brain, to be able to ask such a mentally retarded question at such a critical juncture, Zhang Lingyun chose to ignore her directly, fuse it with the surrounding air, and concentrate on controlling the Divine Fire Talisman in the void.
"Bang, bang, bang......!"
The Divine Fire Rune that was activated in the void transformed into three palm-sized condensed fireballs, attacking the head, chest and abdomen of the large armor at the same time, the huge spiritual impact knocked the large armor away, and the three fireballs also ran out of energy and dissipated in the ferocious impact.
Just when Zhang Lingyun thought that he had eliminated the enemy, a surprising scene happened, the large armor stood up unharmed, and there was no trace of fire in the armor around his body, and what was even more shocking was the strange movement of his getting up, which was the kind of stiff and upright form, which made people think of the description of zombies in the painting book.
If you don't understand the enemy's attack methods, you don't have a better coping strategy, the large armor didn't give Zhang the enemy time to think, and he didn't change the target of the attack as Zhang Lingyun wanted, he was very persistent in chasing Situ Wan'er who was about to escape, and waved the cold iron long knife in his hand to take her life.
"You and I had no grudges in the past and no hatred in the near future, why are you staring at me alone!"
