Chapter 75: Ten Thousand Arrows Pierce the Heart of Brotherhood
At this time, no one thought about saving electricity anymore, and several flashlights were turned on at the same time, illuminating the front section of the corridor transparently.
As a mechanism, it seems mysterious, but in fact it does not go beyond the mechanical principle. Generally, it is divided into power source, trigger mechanism, operation mechanism and the like.
Generally, the mechanisms in the ancient tombs are disposable, such as quicksand, fire oil, and the like. When it is used up, it is over, and crossbow arrows like the previous one are rarely used. Because most of the ancient bows and crossbows were horn bows, and most of them were made of wood and animal sinews and horns, they were extremely unfavorable for storage, and they would rot and could not be used when they were wet or old.
Judging from the arrowheads that fell in the corner of the wall in front of me and the dense shooting marks on the wall, these bows and crossbows can not only be fired after more than 2,000 years, but also fired continuously.
Worst of all, there's no way to know for sure if these crossbows will be fired again. If they are only disposable equipment, then they will be scrapped after launching. But I'm afraid that they only fire part of it, and they will fire again when the mechanism is triggered again. The most terrifying thing is that they can automatically reload the arrows, and they will not break the mechanism until all the arrows are consumed.
If it had been before, the people would have looked down on the ancients, not thinking that they could create such a magical mechanism. But after the rhino canal bronze beast chased everyone and fled for their lives, they no longer dared to underestimate the wisdom of the ancients. Especially after seeing the corpse in front of me, I had to believe how terrible it was for the mechanism to still function normally after 2,000 years. Even if it is a modern product, it has a service life of several years? Dozens or hundreds of years later, it is just a pile of rust.
In the expectation of everyone, Ling Yunfeng had no choice but to walk in front of Lao Wu and said with a smile: "Professor Wu, here you have the most research on ancient tombs and the like. Tell me, how do we get through this passage now?"
Lao Wu glanced at everyone with his eyes, and when he swept over Forensic Doctor Qin and Xiao Pepper, although they still had that disdainful expression, their ears were leaning towards this side, obviously waiting for his answer.
At this time, Lao Wu's heart was extremely happy, and he finally asked me, right? Didn't he disdain to be with me? In the end, he didn't ask me for advice? Hmph......
Just when Lao Wu was about to snort in front of everyone, he saw everyone's eyes look behind him in astonishment, and even let out an exclamation.
Lao Wu hurriedly turned his head and saw that Erhuzi had stepped into the death area paved with arrows on the ground. He also pouted and said unashamedly: "I can dodge all the bullets, and how many bows and arrows are I afraid of?"
The reason why everyone hesitates here, except for the corpse in front, is mainly judging from the arrows scattered on the wall, this section of the tunnel where arrows fell is about 20 meters long. Therefore, this means that unless the mechanism can be broken, it can only pass through the twenty meters of death under the rain of arrows.
Moreover, the corpse lying on the ground was still about seven or eight meters away from the starting point where arrows began to fall. This makes everyone wonder where the trigger mechanism of the organ is.
If the trigger mechanism is at the beginning, then the mechanism can only be a deterrent. As soon as the mechanism is triggered, there will be a rain of arrows in front of you, and the fool will continue to move forward. So, the trigger device can only be somewhere in the middle and rear. Only in this way, once triggered, can the intruder be killed to the maximum.
But the second tiger saw that there was nothing wrong with walking a few meters, so he became even more unscrupulous. As he walked, he turned around and said, "It's okay, come here." The arrows must have been shot long ago. ”
Seeing that Erhuzi was about to walk to the corpse, everyone exclaimed in surprise. After all, the corpse was real, and it was most likely that the person who walked there and triggered the mechanism before being shot to death.
Just when everyone's hearts were about to beat to their throats, suddenly a black shadow jumped out from the side, rushed to Erhuzi's side in a few steps, grabbed his arm and dragged it back.
Everyone looked at it, and the black shadow turned out to be a golden wolf. Usually these two people have a good relationship, and they are even together when they commit two crimes. This time, Erhuzi rushed in alone, not to be in the limelight or anything. It should be more that he doesn't want to look at Lao Wu's stunned look, because Lao Wu's previous practice of pushing Qin Forensic Medicine to the bronze beast really made him grit his teeth. If it weren't for the fact that this mission had to protect these experts, Erhuzi would have to go up and beat him up.
The golden wolf and the second tiger have the same smell, and they don't like Lao Wu either. In the dragon soul, abandoning or framing comrades-in-arms is a great sin, and it is impossible for them to have a place to stay. Don't look at Ling Yunfeng who injured so many people during training, and even disabled the Black Yama King, but he was angry at the injuries suffered by his companions. On the contrary, no one will complain or resent him, and even feel relieved to have such a person as their back.
Seeing that Erhuzi was so impulsive this time, there might be danger, and the golden wolf went up desperately to pull him back. Unexpectedly, Erhuzi came up vigorously, and he didn't go back, so the two of them pulled next to the corpse.
Hearing the sound of "......", Erhuzi's cuffs were torn off by the golden wolf, and Erhuzi, who was still exerting his strength, fell towards the corpse at once.
There were still a lot of arrows stuck in the corpse, and if they were to fall on it, they would have to be made into a sieve if they were not pierced into a hedgehog.
However, the special forces did not deserve it in vain, and when Erhuzi saw that things were not good, he hurriedly twisted his waist and turned around to avoid the corpse. At this time, the golden steel wolf, who was out of his hand, also saw the danger, and hurriedly stepped forward to reach out to pull Erhuzi so that he would not fall on the corpse.
But coincidentally, one twisted outward, and the other pulled back. pulled the body of Erhuzi, who had just twisted to the side, back to the top of the corpse.
At this moment, both of them were dumbfounded, and they were about to fall on the tip of the arrow. At this time, the tacit understanding between the two of them who had been together for so long was still shown, and they saw that the two of them pushed each other at the same time, and they fell on both sides of the corpse.
It's a long story, but it only happens at the moment of falling.
Just as the two of them fell to the ground and were about to breathe a sigh of relief, they heard a "Gab!" sound from under the golden wolf, and then a brick under his shoulder sank a few centimeters. I'm really afraid of something, it's obvious that this is triggered to the mechanism.
Then, you can hear the countless "clangs" of bowstrings and the whistling of arrows, and then the "ding" of metal hitting the walls.
It took nearly a minute or so for the soul-locking "boom" sound to stop. But for everyone, this minute is half a century long.
There were several times when the wild wolves wanted to rush in to save people, but they were all held down by Ling Yunfeng and the hygienist.
Fan Lao and Teacher Yuan closed their eyes even more painfully, and couldn't bear to look at it anymore. Forensic Doctor Qin and Little Pepper kept sobbing, tears flowing down as if they didn't want money.
Of course, there are also those who are not sad. For example, Lao Wu, he just turned his head and didn't look at the corridor over there. As for whether he is glad that he is not in the agency, it is unknown.
However, Xiao Pepper's red eyes seemed to be about to erupt fire, and she kept staring at Lao Wu. She felt that if Lao Wu had told the matter of the organ earlier, she would not have killed her two comrades-in-arms, so she hated Lao Wu even more.
There was another person, with a blue face and eyes staring straight ahead without saying a word, he was the sniper Black Hawk who had been replaced.
