Chapter 572: Shang Jun's Poison Scheme
Ji Wenming took the opportunity to go around to the back of Qi Qi, and the direction where the stone pillar blocked his vision, so he carefully crawled quickly and ran towards the stone pillar.
Qiqi's life and death have nothing to do with him, as long as he can determine the location of the measuring ruler, he will have a targeted plan to seize this magic weapon for water control.
He didn't want to fight hard with Qi Qi, the fierce beast of Zhen Dan's strength felt terrible when he thought about it, especially Qi Qi's courage to hurt himself at the expense of himself, which made Ji Wen's life cold.
What's more, Ji Wenming is wise and scheming, of course he will not choose to be reckless, it is the work of a reckless man, and he will not choose such a path unless he has to.
Ji Wenming finally approached the stone pillar, he stretched out his fingers and touched the huge stone pillar that he couldn't hold with his outstretched arms, and the feeling in his heart was strange and weird.
Only when Qi Qi was running around and mutilating himself, the size changed, and this stone pillar also changed with it, suppressing Qi Qi here. Originally, I thought that this magic weapon should be a living thing, but when I came to its side at this moment, I found that it was a pillar of unknown material.
I don't know how long this pillar has stood here, and it is covered with dust, and only the part that has been splattered and washed by the blood of the poor strange reveals a crimson substrate.
Ji Wen fate its vitality, lying on this stone pillar, slowly crawling upward, wanting to see how high it is, whether there are other clues at the invisible high point, to be sure that this thing is the measuring ruler.
He went up slowly, without making the slightest movement, lest he alarm the poor Qi who was resting below, like a mouse stealing oil to eat, lest he be discovered by a cat under the oil lamp.
Ten zhang, twenty zhang, thirty zhang! Xi Wenming found that this stone pillar was not as smooth and flat as he imagined, and there seemed to be many obvious depressions.
Unfortunately, it's too large to get a full picture of the dents.
Ji Wenming speculated in his heart that this should be a kind of divine pattern seal carving, maybe it was a method of manipulating the measuring ruler? If Qi Qi can make his body smaller, the stone pillar can also shrink accordingly, and then he can see clearly whether these dents are words.
However, this is just his own wishful thinking.
Ji Wenming was about to continue upward, when Qi Qi under the stone pillar suddenly let out an angry howl, and tilted his body to look into the depths of the dark crypt, as if he had found something.
Ji Wenming hurriedly stopped moving, holding his breath and standing still, lest he attract attention.
I saw a sound of footsteps from the side, and then I saw a black-clad assassin with two hostages appear more than ten miles away.
The square here was extremely empty, and when the man escorted the two of them, he deliberately increased his pace, so he was discovered by Qi Qi, and then seen by Ji Wenming.
The assassin stood masked and calm, he pointed the long sword in his hand at the two hostages escorted, stood at the end of the largest range of Qi Qi's activities, and shouted at Qi Qi: "Xi Wenming, don't hide, I have already seen you! Your two companions are in my hands, if you want to keep them alive, now, come out immediately, otherwise I will let you know what regret is!"
Ji Wenming lay on the stone pillar, not daring to speak at all, but he puffed in his heart, sinking to the bottom of his abdomen, and he was still calculated by this assassin despite all precautions, but he didn't expect this person to be shameless and despicable to this point, and he would actually threaten himself with Ling Bingxue and Ye Xiaolei as bait.
Ji Wenming noticed the loophole in his plan, and immediately used his brain, wanting to make amends, he made a mistake in his body, let the golden silkworm boy crawl out of his chest, and then flapped his wings in the air, and flew into the darkness silently, and then slowed down his body and slowly descended.
Seeing that Ji Wen's life was not matched, the assassin sneered: "Ji Wenming, you want your son to inherit his father's business and be a hero of water control, okay! I will fulfill you, can you watch your little concubine die under my sword? Hurry up and jump out and prove your heroism!"
On the side of the square, Montana suddenly stood up and said: "Friends, they are all men of the Northern Underworld, if there is a grudge and slash in front of you, it is good to kill in person, and if you die, it is only strange that your skills are not as good as others, but you used such despicable means, and did you not lose the face of the Northern Underworld?"
The masked man laughed and said, "Lao Tzu is not from the Northern Underworld, but I don't listen to you, I came here to ask for his life, if Xi Wen doesn't die, I will continue to hunt down and kill his friend!"
Montana's face turned cold, and he said, "What kind of grudge do you two have, do you have to force each other to die? Why don't you say it, and I'll help you judge it!"
Ji Wenming was also very curious about why this assassin was like a maggot on his tarsal bones, chasing and killing him, so he relaxed his pace when he heard the words and stopped for the time being.
Qi Qi looked at the man in black and Montana with puzzled eyes, with its oppressed Dao extreme intelligence, it could also feel that these people had bad intentions, but it didn't seem to be aimed at him.
It raised its head and sniffed the breath in the air, determined the difference between good and evil, and suddenly said to the black-clothed assassin: "I sense that you have the same kind of breath on your body, let me go, I will help you kill someone!"
The black-clad assassin was overjoyed and said, "You're coming to your senses? That's a good thing! But I don't dare ask you for help, do you know who I am?"
Qi Qi lowered his head and tasted it, it was not full of intelligence, but it could distinguish between good and evil, and said again: "The smell on your body is somewhat familiar, like the guy who trapped me here in the first place, but I can smell the malice emanating from your soul, you and I belong to the same kind, let me go, and I will fulfill all your wishes!"
The black-clothed assassin was obviously a little moved, his eyes rolled a few times, but he still suppressed his desire, and said with a smile: "I am an assassin, I only know that assassins who kill people, I never save people, and I don't need help from others, Xi Wenming, you come out! The grudge between you and me is a battle of fate, and one must die to be resolved!"
Ling Bingxue suddenly raised her head and said, "Brother Wenming, don't listen to this person's lies, his methods are despicable and cannot be trusted!"
Hearing Ling Bingxue's voice and seeing her pretty face with black veil, Xi Wenming's heart moved, and she couldn't hold it anymore.
I saw that at Montana's side, a person suddenly appeared, it was the disappeared Ji Wenming, he looked at the masked assassin, and said, "I'm right here, you let the two of them go!" ”
The masked assassin laughed and said, "Fair fight, there are four of you here, and I am only one, what will I do when that bearded man intervenes?"
"You villain's heart, since the agreement has been made, how can my dignified Mammoth Knights go back on their word and sneak attack and plot?" Montana scolded angrily, he had long been dissatisfied with this assassin, it was really this person who slipped and didn't spare his hand, missed a hit, turned around and left, and it was difficult to be really dealt with.
"In the eyes of those who have bad intentions, others often have bad intentions! If you have to think like this, I can't help it! Why don't we just stare at each other like this, and wait for Qi Qi to break the chains and eat us all!"
