After a while, the news came back. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info Several people came out of the outermost two caves. It turned out that the gang had already sent four teams to investigate.

One of the groups shouted, "Dead end!"

"It's a dead end here!"

Of the four caves, two are dead, and the remaining two sent have not returned.

Everyone talked again, and someone glanced at Hong Qili and argued chaotically. In the end, he sent someone to come forward and sing a promise to him, saying, "Before the Hong Gang Master arrived, we were discussing going our separate ways, and now there are only two roads left, I don't know which one you choose?"

Teng Chu said in a cool heart: Looking at the structure in this cave, there must be a mechanism no matter which way. He gave Hong Qili an indifferent look at the moment.

It should be said that those of them who have had the experience of Scorpion Island, before Teng Chuliang made it clear, they each had a premonition: there must be some mechanism ahead, and it is best not to lurk in a dark corner with something terrible.

Hong Qili then replied: "Let's choose first, let's go to the other one!"

Those who did not want to go with them soon set out on their way.

The three brothers on the island, the Shangguan brothers, stayed, and there were some others. Maybe it's better for them to believe in the reputation of the gang leader than to go on the road with a bunch of people who don't know the details.

After entering the vaulted cave, the speed of the procession was very slow, and Teng Chuliang stopped from time to time, occasionally touching the cave wall lightly with his hand.

Chris leaned over and asked, "Big brother, what did you find?"

Teng Chuliang said: "We are going down, not up!"

Chang Yutong asked, "What should we do then?" should we go back and take another road!"

"Probably not, let's take a look again!" Teng Chuliang replied.

At first, the time was smooth and quiet, but the passage became more and more cramped, and some conical stone pillars even hung from the top, forcing them to lunge and bend over. Until Teng Chuliang stopped three or four zhang away from a slope, so that everyone stopped in place.

Teng Chuliang squatted down, picked up a small pebble, threw it down the slope, listened attentively, heard the sound of the stones colliding, and seemed to quickly bounce and roll down the slope, but the stone rolled down the slope, but it didn't make a sound.

Rao is Wang Shu and the others had never seen such a serious and cautious Teng Chuliang, and they knew in their hearts that the road ahead was probably very dangerous.

However, those who followed were a little impatient, and there was no danger on the way, and a few people pushed through the crowd and passed quickly.

Ning Yifei kindly reminded: "Wait, there may be a mechanism ahead!"

The men could not hear the words of a hairy young man, who rushed down the ramp with torches in hand and disappeared into the darkness ahead.

Not long after, with a scream, a heavy object fell from the top of the ramp, and then rolled down, sending a ghost crying wolf howl.

The people who ran at the front knew that something was wrong, and immediately threw their legs and rushed down the slope. But they didn't know that something more terrible awaited them ahead. In front of him, countless dazzling rays of light pierced the darkness and illuminated the bottom of the slope. A huge two-wheeled wooden cart filled with golden broadswords swooped down on them at full speed. The human body was immediately stabbed into a hornet's nest. In an instant, as the wheels rolled backwards, the giant knife jerked backwards, and the stump of the body that had been pierced on the knife also fell off, and landed in a hole below. The planks coalesced, and the cart retreated into the darkness. There was no human figure, and no other sound could be heard.

Teng Chuliang finally couldn't hear any movement, so he stood up, straightened his waist, and said, "This saves Teng's trouble." ”

As they slowly descended the ramp, they saw a man on the left side not far away—he had obviously been hit on the head by something, and his brain was splashing and whimpering.

The body was on the left, and he turned to the right. Teng Chuliang motioned for everyone to follow in his footsteps.

When walking down the ramp, time seems to stand still.

When they passed by the corpse, the women who followed the crowd were too frightened to look at it.

The blood stains and corpse parts on the ground have exposed the location where the mechanism will appear, and as long as you avoid it, you can pass through it safely. Now Chris understands why Brother Teng said that it is easy to make trouble.

Halfway up the slope, a long blood mark appeared on the ground. Hong Qili found that there was a person in Po Xin who had not died, and he slowly squirmed on the ground, his lower body was smashed, but his upper body was still crawling down the slope.

Just listen to the click on the top.

"Damn!" Teng Chuliang shouted, "Everyone stand against the wall on the right!"

When the sound of the reminder reached the back of the group, a pair of spiky wooden stakes still fell from the stone roof on the slope, whistling past the crowd under the pull of chains. Of the three brothers on the island, the man with the harpoon was a step slower, and the stake swung from behind him, striking him in the head, a blow that turned the man over, and his body collapsed like a puppet with a broken string. Scroll down.

"Big brother!" shouted the man with the latte rake as he rushed over to save his brother. They were only an arm's length apart from each other, but a deafening sound was heard, and with a "bang" another stake fell vertically, which was completely smashing the man who was only half of his body on the slope, and the second and third stakes were chopping downward, followed by a frenzied thumping of the ground. He threw down the corpses, threw down the iron rake, and kept rolling on the ground to dodge. When he rolled down the slope and thought he had escaped to safety, the two-wheeled cart "rumbled" out of the dark corner, and the tip of the knife pierced his chest, lower abdomen and thighs, blood splashed, and the cries for help were endless, but the little brother with the bow and arrow was stunned, and his feet seemed to be fixed on the ground, and he did not dare to step forward.

Where did the three brothers on the island know the art of mechanism? And the mechanism is often a ring after a ring, triggering one, must be connected to a group, layer by layer, until finally complete the chain, will be recovered. It won't happen until someone touches it again that the mechanism repeats.

Looking at the bloodstained and fragmented corpses all over the ground, everyone present felt trembling. Yue Yu'er looked ahead and bit her lip. Ning Yifei wanted to say something, but couldn't find the right words to comfort.

Teng Chuliang sighed and said, "This is the Saimen knife car (2) guarding the city, the most common thing in the trap array, I'm afraid this is the simplest kind of trap array! Everyone also knows what they will face in front of them." ”

Saimen knife car Wang Shu is naturally familiar with it. Twenty-four steel knives were mounted on the forearms of the car, which were the barriers to movement. It is said in "Mozi" that the hard battle of holding the city is difficult to ensure that the city gate is not lost, and the Saimen knife cart is a sharp weapon for first aid and garrison, filling the gap, which can not only prevent the enemy soldiers from entering the city, but also block arrows and stones. He also ordered someone to modify this car, turning the steel knife on the car into a killing weapon that can be **** at any time, killing and injuring enemy soldiers is very considerable.

The steel knife on the cart was withdrawn, and the man on the island had fallen into the corpse pit below, and the stone slab on the ground was shut up again.

There was a dead silence on the ramp, and the martial arts people who followed them were all honest, and even the Shangguan brothers didn't say a word, everyone quietly followed Teng Chuliang and quickly went down to the bottom of the slope.

After walking for a while, the cave was blocked by a wooden door.

Teng Chuliang squatted at the door and listened for a while, and then tapped lightly with his finger bones in a few specific positions, and after the inspection, he motioned for Hong Qili to stand by the door like himself, and the two of them separated the door to both sides.

Inside, it was more like a wooden house, with wooden paving, red wooden pillars every few steps, and a wooden door directly in front of it.

Teng Chuliang raised his hand, everyone knew it, there was a mechanism ahead, and he was on standby.

He pulled out a few pebbles that he had picked up in the cave just now. He threw the plank in front of his feet, and rolled a few times with the sound of a plank.

Every time he did this, Chris learned Teng Chuliang to listen carefully, and after a few times, he also heard some insights: this wood is thick, and there should be no traps underneath.

Although he stopped and was relieved, Teng Chuliang was still more cautious, and turned around and asked Xiong Daiying: "Borrow your sword!"

Xiong Daiying pulled out the Jingtong Fengming sword that was lying on his back and handed it to him.

The tip of the sword poked down, and there was a solid plank underneath. Teng Chuliang lifted the sword again and shook it violently in the air a few times, and when he saw that there was no movement, he walked lightly to it, he stood on tiptoe and slid along. He stopped again before walking in front of the second plank, threw the stone, and did the same thing, continuing on without anomalies.

This process is very time-consuming, but no one will complain, but unconsciously hold their breath, one by one worried, for fear that some organ will kill the only person who understands the mechanism, and they will be even more lost.

Throwing another stone, Chris pricked up his ears and heard the empty echo of the stone falling to the ground.

Teng Chuliang stopped, turned the sword sideways, the sword side knocked down, and the wooden board immediately fell down, and then with a "click", the wooden board was tightly locked.

The people behind him all inhaled, thinking: Sure enough, there was an ambush, and the wait just now was worth it.

Teng Chuliang knew that the sword in his hand was quite sharp, and he touched the floor slightly with the tip of the sword, and then inserted it very carefully from a place, and with a prie, he actually opened a hidden box under the wooden board.

Chris was curious behind him, tiptoeing over the corner.

As if sensing her gaze, Teng Chuliang turned his head and beckoned to her, "The first few planks are fine, if the virtuous brother finds it interesting, come forward and take a look!"

Chris was the first to run to Teng Chuliang's side, and Xiong Daiying followed with a torch.

Teng Chuliang used the tip of his sword to pick open the hidden box, and there was indeed a pair of locking spring mechanisms connected to the flap inside.

He pressed the plank with the face of his sword, but did not move. Then he touched the lock spring mechanism with the tip of his sword, and heard the sound of "Kata" again.

After a moment's wait, he slammed down with his sword again, and the plank immediately flipped down, and Chris could clearly see that the lock spring was locked again.

This time, Teng Chuliang slashed a piece of wood around him, and sawdust splashed everywhere.

As soon as the fire shone in the light, they looked down and saw that under the broken plank, there was a large trap full of spikes.

In this way, as long as someone steps on the plank, it will inevitably fall down, and at the same time, the plank is immediately firmly fixed by the lock spring, not to mention falling on the ground thorn and killing immediately, if you are lucky enough to live, you can't open the flap, you can't escape.

Teng Chuliang said: "This is the lock spring flap array!"

With that, he handed the sword to Chris first, and with a pair of large hands, he carefully dismantled the mechanism in the dark box.

The shape of the lock is extremely complicated, open it and see, it is a copper lock stick, the copper stick is hollow, there are double lock springs inside, each has six slot lock springs, the reed of the lock spring is a glass-like translucent crystal substance, the top is a sharp cone, the color is translucent, Teng Chuliang is close to the nose, sniffed, smiled, and said: "If this is the case, this flap array is easy to solve!"

Chris frowned, not understanding what he meant.

Who knew that Teng Chuliang took out a cloth towel from his body, wrapped the lock spring, handed it to Hong Qili, and asked: "Gang Master Hong is born with divine power, can you help crush this reed?"

When the others heard this, they were all puzzled, and Hong Qili didn't know what his intentions were, but he did it anyway, and rubbed the cloth towel a few times with a sigh of strength, and then opened it to see that the reeds inside were kneaded into powder.

Teng Chuliang took out a small bottle from his sleeve again, opened the bottle, and poured it into the cloth towel held by Hong Qili, which was some gray-white powder.

He took the cloth towel and tucked it together to mix well.

After that, Teng Chuliang turned his head to the crowd: "Please put out the torch first." ”

Xiong Daiying heard this, and immediately extinguished the torch in his hand.

After a while, there was darkness all around, and everyone fell into an inexplicable mood.

Next, Teng Chuliang unfolded the cloth towel, squatted down, took a full breath, and blew hard as much as possible against the plank. He blew a few gulps, and the powder landed on a large wooden board in front of him, emitting a glowing green light.

Chris looked up, and she noticed that there was a green glow shining through the gaps in the planks that were farther away.

Teng Chuliang explained everyone's doubts and said, "As long as there is a lock spring mechanism under the wooden board, it will reveal green light." ”

Seeing such a mysterious phenomenon, I don't know why, everyone exclaimed.

Wang Shu was also surprised: "Brother Teng, why is this?"

Teng Chuliang replied: "Generally, the reed of this kind of lock spring mechanism has extremely high requirements, and it is often smelted with the tail of the female firefly and then made into a thin sheet. The firefly tail flakes crushed by the Hong gang leader just now are in harmony with the phosphorus powder brought below, and sprinkled on the wooden board, the firefly flakes will react to this powder, which will enhance the light, and it will be clear at a glance in the dark, and it is natural to easily see where there is a 'flap mechanism' in front of you!"

Chris exclaimed in amazement, "It's amazing!" (To be continued.) )
