Chapter Eighty-Three: The Pavilion of Meritorious Service
With the appearance of the fork in the road, people began to separate, such as the people of the Liu family. The people who came from the Liu family this time, Li Mubai didn't know, but they were very low-key and had been inconspicuous, and when they encountered a three-way intersection at the moment, they didn't hesitate too much, and the side belonging to the Liu family chose a passage on the left and disappeared.
On the surface, the people of Haoyang Sect are the weakest of the remaining people, although their attitude towards Li Mubai is not very friendly, but they did not rush up in a hurry, but showed great restraint, seeing that the Liu family chose the left fork, Haoyang Sect also chose the right fork. Anyway, I don't know the specific arrangement, and when it comes to the place they are now in, good things may appear anywhere.
In an instant, most of the people were missing, and the remaining three families continued to move forward, and it didn't take long for a huge space to appear in front of them, and there were many stone platforms with weapons placed near the mountain wall, but those weapons were all broken pieces of iron or powder, and it seemed that they had become like this because they had not blocked the erosion of time. There are many uneven potholes in the ground, and they are arranged quite regularly.
"Is this a martial arts arena?" Murong Qing felt that the layout of this huge space was a little familiar.
Li Mubai had never seen the ruins of antiquity, but judging from the layout and traces, the function should be similar to that of the martial arts arena, so he replied: "It should be!"
"So, there should be a sect's hall or something like that in the back?" Murong Qing's eyes showed excitement, "Then there should be a Hidden Scripture Pavilion or a Hidden Treasure Pavilion or something, right?"
"How do I know this? I'm also the first time I've been to this kind of place, and isn't it supposed to be where people from this sect live?"
According to the layout of most sects nowadays, the back should be the council hall or something, and then the back is the residence of important people, and the scripture pavilion or treasure pavilion should be located in some secret place on both sides.
Mu Hui answered at this time: "Judging from the ruins discovered in the past, these ancient sects don't pay much attention to it at all, and places like the Hidden Scripture Pavilion and the Hidden Treasure Pavilion may be in any place, but they are heavily guarded and heavily organized. Although some organs are no longer effective due to the age, there are still some organs that are still functioning, and we will all be recruited if we are not careful. The next step is to enter the important area, so everyone should be careful. ”
Entering an important area not only means that there may be dangerous organs, but also means being more vigilant about the people around you, so as not to be caught off guard by the treasures that appear.
After the huge space of the suspected martial arts arena, three forks appeared again, and the three forces each chose a fork in the road very tacitly.
Lei Jizong and Li Mubai moved towards the passage on the left, suddenly, I don't know who touched the mechanism, a rapid sound sounded, followed by a "bang" sound of breaking the air, Li Mubai listened to the argument, and shot down the thing that attacked him with a knife, and then a few screams sounded, and someone was hit.
Although I knew that I might encounter danger, but along the way, it was smooth sailing, and I didn't encounter any obstacles at all, some people were inevitably careless, and then under this mechanism, they were caught off guard and were injured, the only thing to be thankful for is that the injuries were not serious.
"Cheer up, the back may be more dangerous. Mu Hui said in a loud voice, "But this also means that there will definitely be an important place in the future, and we may have a big harvest." ”
In just a few words, not only did the bad atmosphere caused by someone being injured dissipate, but also mobilized the enthusiasm of everyone, didn't they come here to hunt for treasures? The probability of treasures appearing in important areas is very high.
Then, everyone continued to encounter the mechanism, and all kinds of mechanisms began to show their power, starting with the first encounter with the arrow mechanism, although everyone was already cautious, but there were still people who continued to suffer under the trap of the mechanism. Lei Jizong and Li Mubai had a total of ten people, two were seriously injured, three were lightly injured, and five people withdrew from this expedition under the arrangement of Mu Hui, no matter how good the treasure is, it is not important to live in life.
Finally, the remaining five people came to the end of the passage, a tall stone door blocked in front of them, Mu Hui pushed forward, but there was no response, and he tried it with martial arts, but the true qi was like a mud cow entering the sea, and it had no effect.
"Everyone look for it, there must be a mechanism, otherwise how to get in. "Mu Hui is useless when he sees it, so he can only honestly find the mechanism.
The crowd carried torches and searched carefully for the stone gate and its vicinity.
"Senior brother, this one seems to be moving, you can take a look. "Shi Jin is the only remaining disciple of the Lei Ji Sect other than Mu Hui and Wei Kui, and he found a moving stone slab on the stone gate.
The slate is in the shape of a nine-square lattice, with eight movable slabs inside, and there is an empty space.
Mu Hui curiously fiddled with the movable stone slabs, but did not move: "Do you know what this is?"
Li Mubai was a little uncertain and said, "Is it a puzzle?"
"Oh?" Mu Hui raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Mubai: "Brother Li knows what this thing is?"
"I'm not entirely sure if it is, but if it is, I'm confident I'll be able to put it together. Li Mubai said truthfully.
Although I don't know if this puzzle is a mechanism, but now I can only be a dead horse and a live horse doctor, and in the absence of other discoveries, Li Mubai stepped forward and tried to complete the puzzle.
Without knowing what the specific pattern was, and having not touched the puzzle for a long time, it took Li Mubai almost twenty minutes to complete the puzzle.
"Xuanwu?" Murong Qing looked at the pattern that was spelled out and guessed.
Mu Hui nodded: "The turtle and snake are one, it should be Xuanwu." ”
After Li Mubai spelled out the pattern, he pushed the stone door, and the stone door slowly opened, and what appeared in front of everyone was a stone gate guarded by two skeletons.
"It's the stone gate again, there won't be any mechanism, right?" Although Mu Hui said it, he didn't stop moving, walked directly to the stone gate, and pushed hard, and the stone door opened in response.
"Wait, what do you think these three words are?" Li Mubai pointed to the place above the stone gate that had been ignored by everyone.
"Chuangong Pavilion?" Wei Kui, who had never had a sense of existence, subconsciously read it out, followed by surprise, "Chuan Gong Pavilion, isn't there a lot of martial arts cheats?"
Everyone was excited, didn't they come to this so-called ruins just for treasures and martial arts secrets? Now that the entire Gong Transmission Pavilion was in front of them, it was strange that they were unhappy.
However, they were not carried away by this surprise, Li Mubai calmly reminded: "Be careful, the cheats are right in front of you, but you must also pay extra attention to your own safety!" Please pay attention to read the latest chapter
