Chapter 21: The Shadow of the Oiran
Yang Mingcai stood firmly, only to hear a "boom" above his head, and the stone slab closed. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Fortunately, he did not step on the sharp knife under his feet, in front of him was a spacious passage, there were oil lamps on the walls on both sides of the lamp every other zhang, and the nearest two oil lamps were placed next to the wall more than a dozen weapons, knives, swords, axes, whips, guns, clubs, hammers, etc. Yang Ming approached the place where the weapons were placed, looked at the weapons in front of him, and knew in his heart that although these were not good weapons, although the long swords on the wall were far inferior to the Longyin Sword, they were also from the hands of famous artists, and ordinary people couldn't ask for them.
Yang Ming didn't care if there was a way out behind him, and no matter how many traps there were in front of him, he had to move forward.
What's more, since there was an abnormality in the rockery, he guessed that this must have been done on purpose, and it was closely related to the mysterious thing in the flower studio and the Oiran Tong Yu.
Sure enough, before he had taken ten steps, short arrows and darts flew densely from all around.
Yang Ming drew his sword out of its sheath and swung it more than ten times before knocking down all the hidden weapons. He still walked forward, cautiously watching the movements around him.
After only a few steps, another hidden weapon came, like dark clouds and rain, endlessly. Yang Ming swung his sword like the wind, and his body flashed left and right, flying up and down, extremely fast.
After about half a cup of tea, the hidden weapon stopped, and the sound of "whew" came from the right side, Yang Ming noticed that something was wrong, and hurriedly turned sideways, only to see an iron rod with the thickness of an arm piercing out of the stone wall on the right side, and quickly retracted after missing a blow, and an iron rod came out on the left side, hitting Yang Ming's waist.
Yang Ming quickly dodged sideways, only to avoid a blow, and another iron rod flew out again, not only on the stone walls on both sides, but also on his feet and head. At first, they were struck one after the other, but later three or four iron rods were struck out at the same time.
Yang Ming had no way to retreat, and when he was critical, he swung his sword and slashed violently, not only failed to cut off the iron rod, but his arm shook, and the dragon Yin sword almost got out of his hand, and he was hit in the right leg without paying attention. Yang Ming felt a sharp pain in his legs, and said in his heart: "What kind of material is this, even the Dragon Yin Sword is constantly chopping?"
I saw that the speed of the iron rod was getting faster and faster, and Yang Ming was getting faster and faster, and he would be beaten into a meatloaf if he was not careful.
There is nothing brilliant about the design of these iron rods, but the speed and density that can push people to a corner. Yang Ming's speed has reached the limit, if the number of iron rods hit at the same time increases, and the speed is faster, he will lose the only space to dodge, and there will be no place to bury.
At this time, Yang Ming did not have the slightest fear in his heart.
Yue Mingqiu could know the truth of that incident, and he must have experienced these dangers. Since even Yue Mingqiu was able to pass through the danger, how could these traps trap him "Little Divine Dragon"?
Yang Ming guessed that these iron rods would soon stop, because in addition to destroying the iron rods, the breaking method of this formation was to hold on to the end, waiting for the mechanism to stop by itself.
At this moment, the iron rods really retracted into the stone wall one by one and did not come out again.
Yang Ming was overjoyed, and hurriedly turned over and jumped out. He breathed a sigh of relief, picked up his sword, and muttered to himself, "I don't know what will happen next." And he went on.
I walked dozens of steps forward, and it was unhindered.
After walking more than ten steps, I saw that the front of me became open, like entering the hall, and the passage also came to an end. Yang Ming looked around carefully, and saw ten bronze statues standing at the foot of the wall, with different postures, all holding weapons, or swords or axes and whips, or spears and Jin Ge, all of which were full of internal strength and ready to go.
Yang Ming turned around in place, carefully looked at the bronze statue and the surrounding stone walls, but there was no exit, and he didn't find any mechanism or anything like that, and he suddenly felt like he was being teased. But he would never believe that there was no exit at the end of this secret passage that had been carefully set up traps, and that it did not lead to a place he did not expect.
Yang Ming carefully looked at the ten bronze figures around him, the workmanship of the bronze figures was really fine and realistic, not only the body was lifelike, the expression was like a real person, but the weapons in his hands were all the same as the real ones, and the blades of the swords were shining with the oil lamps on the stone walls.
Yang Ming looked at these bronze statues, the more he looked at them, the more strange he felt, but he couldn't tell where the strangeness was, only from the posture of these bronze statues, there was a faint murderous aura, and the air in this stone room was faintly filled with a faint blood. Yang Ming's right hand unconsciously rested on the hilt of the sword.
Suddenly, the ten bronze statues moved quickly, leaning towards Yang Ming, and in a blink of an eye, they became a formation of five inside and five outside, surrounded Yang Ming in two layers.
Five bronze statues, one holding a long sword, the swordsman is ready to go, one swings two swords together, echoing up and down, one picks up the golden mace, there is a great momentum of Mount Tai pressing the top, one is long and short two guns, both offensive and defensive, one holds high the horn fork, the edge is exposed.
At a glance, Yang Ming's body, the sun and the moon, and Feiyang are all within the scope of the bronze statue. Not to mention that there are five people on the outer layer holding whips, crutches, hammers, sticks, and hooks, and their momentum is compelling.
Yang Ming couldn't help but be taken aback when he saw this, and then he pulled out the sword out of the sheath, only to see that the bodies of the five people in the inner layer were actually swinging, dancing weapons in their hands, and striking at Yang Ming together, the sword was towards the ribs, the knife was cut at the waist, the neck was split, the gun was pointed at the chest, and the fork was taken off the plate.
Yang Ming hurriedly hung his sword upside down, his body rotated half a circle, and he moved the sword to block close to his body for a week, first relieving the danger of his chest, waist and flanks, and when he quickly dodged to the right, he raised his right leg lightly, not only dodging the heavy blow of the golden mace, but also avoiding the horns.
Yang Ming's action was extremely fast, and he didn't have time to think at all, although he broke five attacks, he was still in danger. I saw that the five bronze men missed a blow, and quickly changed their positions and retreated to the back, but the five bronze men on the periphery attacked Yang Ming. Yang Ming's body is like the wind, swinging his sword is like electricity, and where the blades intersect, sparks are flying.
Yang Ming has been alone in the rivers and lakes for three or four years since he learned martial arts, although he is not experienced in the rivers and lakes, but he is also experienced in a hundred battles, countless enemies, and many strong enemies have been encountered, but there are really not many who can be stronger than today's formation.
These ten bronze men cooperate seamlessly, it is really more perfect than a living person, Yang Ming is completely passive even if he is not injured, and he has tried to cut off the blades in the hands of the bronze statue many times, but he didn't expect that those blades are not ordinary, Yang Ming tried a few times and only cut off some iron filings.
Yang Ming thought that this weapon was genuine, and it was not connected to the bronze statue, since it could be installed, it could naturally be unloaded, so he ventured out of his sword and stabbed it at the "Neiguan Point" on a person's wrist. I saw that the five fingers of the bronze statue's hammer hand were loosened, and the copper hammer weighing hundreds of catties fell to the ground instantly.
Yang Ming was overjoyed, although his back was cold and he was stabbed obliquely by the spear, he was still not shocked. Now that you have tried to crack it, it is not difficult to break the formation and get out. With all his might, he unloaded several bronze blades in succession. The bronze man who lost his weapon was still in the middle of the battle, waving his forearms, making various attacking movements, although the threat was greatly reduced, he still blocked every exit in an orderly manner, and Yang Ming still had no way to retreat.
The crisis had been eliminated, and it was more than enough to defend against the attacks of these bronze men, so Yang Ming divided his mind to think of a further way to crack it. Before he could sort out some thoughts, he gave it a bold try, and stabbed a sword into the chest of a bronze man. The stabbed bronze man paused for a moment, then fell to the ground with a bang.
Yang Ming was overjoyed and said, "It turns out that the key point of the human body is the key point of these bronze people. "Thinking about this, it won't be difficult to get out, not to mention that these bronze statues are dead, and one less companion will not change the formation by themselves, and the fallen bronze man has become an obstacle.
Yang Ming made a few moves in a row, and the bronze statue fell seven or eight, and the rest were no longer able to run, and they were self-defeating.
Yang Ming jumped outside the "corpses" of these bronze statues and said to himself, "There shouldn't be any more mechanisms." "Put the sword back in its sheath, and try to find a place to be.
Yang Ming looked up and down the surrounding stone walls carefully, and slapped them with his hands again, the stone walls were solid. Yang Ming couldn't help but wonder in his heart: "There is no reason to set up so many organs, but it turns out to be a dead end." He had no choice but to go back and find another way out, maybe the exit was not at the end of the passage, and it was not impossible to set it in the middle of the passage.
Yang Ming took two steps back, then went to pat the stone walls on both sides, and heard that the only remaining standing bronze man was still waving his forearms in place and making a whirring sound, and he felt upset, raised his hand, and shouted: "Pour also." "A copper coin was struck and hit the bronze man's vest. The bronze man fell in response.
Suddenly, there was a loud "boom", and the zenith stone slab moved, and a three-foot square exit suddenly appeared.
Yang Ming was surprised and delighted, he didn't dare to relax his vigilance in his heart, and jumped out of the secret passage with a long sword.
When Fang stood firm, the slate slammed shut. Yang Ming looked around, it was like a group of hall furnishings, with an elegant layout, I really don't know who he entered by mistake.
Raising his eyes and looking at the main seat, he saw a girl of seventeen or eighteen kneeling in front of the desk making tea, and two maids standing beside her, both of whom were fourteen or fifteen years old.
The people in the hall obviously saw Yang Ming as well. A maid came over, bent down to Yang Ming and said a blessing, "Son, my young lady has been waiting for a long time." Childe, please take a seat. As he spoke, he led Yang Ming to the guest seat and asked Yang Ming to sit down.
Yang Ming was also polite and sat down at the chief. Thinking that the woman on the main seat was the Oiran Tong Yu here, the puzzle that had puzzled him for a long time was about to be solved.
The woman on the main seat raised her eyes to look at Yang Ming, her eyes showed some consternation, and suddenly her face changed, her eyes flowed, and she was overjoyed.
Yang Ming glanced at her expression, puzzled in his heart, and couldn't guess what she was thinking.
The woman on the throne put down the tea set and said, "There is nothing to do with you here, so go down." The two maids said "yes" and withdrew.
The girl poured two cups of tea, one in each hand, got up and walked down. I saw her slender waist swinging, the lotus step moved lightly, and the beads and jade around her waist swayed gently, jingling and quiet, crisp and pleasant. Look at her jade appearance and graceful appearance, delicate and shy, a pair of bright eyes are as clear as water, eyebrows are like ink paintings, lips are like red points, ice muscles and jade bones, and a beautiful shadow fairy, like a fairy strayed into the red dust, and the dragon girl plays the world.
Yang Ming praised this woman's extraordinary appearance in his heart: "This woman's beauty is unparalleled in Lake City. Out of Lake City, I'm afraid only Miss Jiang can match it. ”
The woman walked up to Yang Ming, handed Yang Ming a cup of flower tea, and said, "I really didn't expect to meet Engong here." Please drink this cup of flower tea. ”
