Ghost Blowing Lantern II

Chapter 190 Nu Qing Xiangxi Infinite Permanent Chain Mechanism

Blind Chen saw a magic weapon being shot at Luo Laowai. Luo Laowai's face was covered in blood. He couldn't see his condition clearly. If he was shot, he would be shot to the core immediately. Luo Laowai's face was covered with blood. He was the warlord who was supported by Chen Xiazi, so he couldn't let him die here. In desperation, he had no choice but to kick out Luo Lao, causing him to fall onto the bamboo tower.

Although this kick saved Luo Laowai's life at the last moment, the divine child came very quickly, and a strong wind passed by Luo Laowai's shoulder. The flesh on his shoulder was taken out by the child's tip. A cut caused the flesh and blood to fly out.

Luo Laowai was shocked and in pain. He fell down the bamboo ladder and hit an engineer. Fortunately, he did not roll directly into the sea of ​​​​flaming flames. However, arrows were fired from the city. An arrow hit his left eye, which caused great pain. He screamed violently, but Luo Laowai was worthy of being a warlord who dominated the area of ​​​​three Hunan and four rivers. He raised his hand to grab the arrow shaft, and tore the bloody eyeball from his face, and his whole body was covered in blood. Among the dead, no one could see whether he was still alive in the chaos.

At this time, the bandits in Xieling had already disrupted the camp. Everyone wanted to protect themselves and struggled desperately in the fire. Those who were injured but not dead pulled their corpses up one after another to block the locust-like arrows. Chen Xiazi tried his best to gather the thieves, picked up the rattles of the dead and hung them on the bamboo tower, blocking the random arrows from all directions. He had just cornered the remaining troops. Hold still, just listen to the constant sound of the mechanism on the tower, the wooden figurines are turning the winches, and the ropes of the god's arm bed are about to be activated again. As long as there is another burst of strong bows, the bamboo tower built by hanging centipedes from the mountain ladder will surely No doubt scattered.

Blind Chen held up the shield to protect his body, and secretly complained in his heart. In the past, he had gone to various places to rob tombs, relying on the strength of the crowd and the proficiency of weapons and formations, without any setbacks. Unexpectedly, he was in Pingshan Ancient Tomb every step of the way. Difficulty is just like "a fat pig walks into the butcher's door and hits a dead end." Now he has fallen into the trap of the government city, and the whole group will die here in a few moments, although Chen Xiazi is a timid and cruel person. The helmsman of Shengshan Mountain, in this situation, could not help but feel terrified.

He originally wanted the mute to risk his life by climbing to the top of the city and destroying the random arrow machine, but there was a moment of confusion and the mute had already been hit by several arrows in his legs. Even though he was eight feet tall and three feet broad, he had extraordinary bones and could climb with bare hands. Kunlun Molecule in the city, but now he was injured by an arrow, and he couldn't use his true ability to reach the sky.

Blind Chen saw that everything was at an end, and he knew that he was the only one who could take action, risking his life to fight against the waves. If the Patriarch blessed Xiling with endless energy, he might be able to escape, and if he hesitated, he would not even have the slightest chance. No more. He immediately grabbed a centipede hanging from the head of the mountain ladder, stretched out his hand and patted the mute's shoulder. The mute Kunlun Moller also understood, ignoring the severe pain of the arrow hurting the bone in his leg, crossed his hands, and held it on the The soles of Chen Xiazi's feet used his divine power and suddenly pushed Chen Xiuzi from the bamboo tower into the air.

Chen Xiazi made a desperate move, and was pushed hard by the mute. He took advantage of the situation and jumped into the air. He poked the centipede mountain ladder in his hand into the fire. Driven by the toughness of the bamboo ladder, it was like the pole vault invented by the ancient Romans. He drew an arc in the air and jumped towards the city wall under the enemy building. As he jumped up and down, the random arrows flying in the air also hit him. There was something hidden in Chen Xiazi's outer robe. Steel gauze armor, he grabbed a shield to protect his head and face, no matter how many arrows were fired at him, they were all blocked by the steel gauze armor.

The thieves who have been passed down for thousands of years to "touch gold from hills, move mountains, and unload ridges" are not comparable to the small thieves and thieves among the people. There are masters with special skills in these businesses from generation to generation. How about blind man Chen? How could he be the leader of the hundreds of thousands of Xiling bandits in the world if he was really capable? At this moment, he made a desperate move and used all his skills, fully displaying the ancient flying thief's stunt of "turning his head high" and hanging on the mountain by holding on to the centipede. The bamboo ladder jumped through the raging fire all over the city and rushed towards the city wall. However, the length of the bamboo ladder was limited, and it was about to fall into the raging fire under the city wall.

Just when Chen Xiazi was about to chase him into the fire cave, the mute on the other side of the bamboo tower had already thrown another "centipede hanging mountain ladder". The mute Kunlun Moleh had extraordinary supernatural power. The bamboo ladder came first, and the diabolo broke through the air. Amidst the whistling wind, it passed over Chen Xiazi's head and was thrown just under the city wall, leaning against the high wall and leaning against the fire.

Blind Chen was in the air, and when he saw the bamboo ladder falling in front of him, he secretly screamed: "What a luck!" Without the help of a strange person like Kunlun Molle, even if he had crossed the sea of ​​​​fire with the help of the snitch, he would have survived. When he reached the city, he couldn't help but fall down and be burned alive. He threw the shield away casually and landed on the centipede hanging ladder in the scorching air. However, the place where he landed was still too close to the flames of the burning oil bricks on the ground. His clothes were immediately on fire. He hurriedly took a few steps, turned around on the bamboo ladder, and took off the burning robe. When he looked back, his eyes couldn't help but blacken for a while, and his teeth were chattering.

It turned out that the mute Kunlun Molec had to step in the fire in order to throw the bamboo ladder to the city. He left the bamboo tower that the bandits refused to guard. At this time, he was shot by random arrows and became like a hedgehog. His huge body collapsed in the fire. , instantly burned into a ball of fire.

Blind Chen saw that Kunlun Molle, who had been with him for many years, died so tragically. Unconsciously, it touched his heart and he almost fell down the bamboo ladder. However, he was a handsome man and was used to matters of life and death. He also knew that everyone's lives depended on him at this moment. I had no choice but to harden my heart, cheer up, and step up to the top of the bamboo ladder in a few steps.

The four walls of the urn city in the ancient tomb are slightly concave inward like the walls of the urn. The walls are extremely slippery, deliberately to prevent those thieves with sharp hands and feet from climbing up the city. The bamboo ladder thrown by the mute before his death was leaning against the city wall. , the top only reached two-thirds of the height. No matter how powerful Chen Xiazi was, he would not be able to cross the wall from here.

Fortunately, I was still dragging the bamboo ladder that I had used when I jumped over the sea of ​​fire and it was not loose. I hurriedly hung the "centipede hanging mountain ladder" on the crenel at the top of the city, lifted the one I was stepping on upside down, and flew up to the city.

The firelight below the city reflected the flickering lights on the city. I saw between the light and darkness of the fire, all the wooden figurines were wearing armor and robes. The bodies made of spliced ​​logs made a "crackling" sound of wood. Behind the city wall Staring at the arrows and controlling the flying locusts, the principle of the Western "self-ringing bell" mechanism was no longer surprising at that time. In fact, during the Qin and Han Dynasties, there were alchemists who could control the puppets to perform a complete set of acrobatics, but in the machine Under Kuo's control, those actions that seem to be extremely simple must have a regular rhythm, and everything will fall apart at the slightest step.

Although Chen Xiazi has been widely knowledgeable throughout his life, he still couldn't help but feel hairy all over when he saw these ghost-like wooden figures up close. It seems that the ancient legends about some ancient tombs hidden with ghost armies protecting the tombs are true. If an ignorant person suddenly sees the wooden man moving around in the underground palace, and is frightened, he will naturally regard it as a ghost army guarding the mausoleum.

The wooden machine was in constant action and was still firing arrows. Blind Chen saw that in addition to the countless "wooden figurines" on the city, there were also densely packed "machine machines and arrow boxes" with several winches rotating in between. There are countless boxes of arrows hidden in the city, and I don’t know when they will be fired. Although there are figures shaking on the city top and the machine springs ringing in confusion, in fact, there is only Chen Xiazi. It's really shocking to be a living person in such a weird situation.

Blind Chen risked his life to climb the city. He came here to fight for his life. Although he felt a chill in his heart, in order to rescue his surviving men, he still had the courage to bite the bullet and pass through the staring wooden figures around him. However, looking around, I know that the previous judgment is correct. There is a mercury well in the watchtower on the city. In the art of mechanism, it is customary to call the core part of the mechanism a "well". It is not a real well-like structure. To break it, In this mechanical city, the only way to drain the mercury in the wells is to leak out the mercury. As long as the mercury circulating back and forth is lost, it will be like "a waterwheel loses water and a windmill has no wind." Once the mechanical wells are broken, the mercury around the city will become useless. .

After seeing the situation around him and listening to the sound of water flowing from the machine, he already had a calculation in his mind. He swayed and approached the watchtower. There were many enemy holes in all directions in the watchtower. The mercury inside was forced by the fire in the city. The mercury gas was pungent to the nostrils. Blind Chen covered his face with black gauze and held his breath. He was about to stick the centipede hanging on the mountain ladder into the watch tower and stop the mechanism. Suddenly he felt that there was no root under his feet. He sank suddenly and his whole body immediately fell downwards.

It turns out that the walls of this urn city are hollow. In addition to the mercury machinery instilled by the machine, there are many traps at the top of the city. Looking at the flat and solid ground, as long as you step on the traps without knowing it, you will immediately fall into the pits. , the pit is an extremely vicious mechanism. There are "dirty" and "clean" pits. There are no fatal things in the clean pit, and they are designed to capture people alive. The dirty pit is designed to take people's lives, with "lots, nails, and poison" hidden inside. "Water" thing, even if it falls, there is no chance of survival, and the trap is said to be vicious, mainly because once stepped on this kind of trap, almost no one can escape. No matter how outstanding the person's skills are, he can't "strength from the ground". His feet fell into the air, and he fell in helplessly. Even with all his abilities, he couldn't use them.

However, the Xiling group of thieves have dominated the world for nearly two thousand years, relying on their strong hands and sophisticated equipment. How many generations of people have worked hard to build the "centipede hanging ladder". Its purpose is not only to climb high, but also to restrain various ancient tomb mechanisms. , the more dangerous and critical the situation, the greater its role. When Chen Xiazi fell into the trap, he had already put the bamboo ladder's hook on the watchtower, and his fall stopped immediately. There was only an inch away from the tips of the iron spears laid vertically in the pit. If he went down a little further, even if he was protected by a steel gauze armor, he would be stabbed to death in the pit due to the force of the fall, and his whole body would be shocked. I was dripping with cold sweat, and my hands and feet were a little weak.

Blind Chen saved his life and shouted in his heart: "The Patriarch has shown his spirit." Using his hands and feet, he climbed up the "centipede ladder" to the watchtower. Seeing that there was no door to enter the watchtower, he dragged another one to the watchtower. The bamboo ladder was inserted into the building, and there was a loud noise. The long ladder immediately got stuck in the mechanism shaft. The sound of running water in the enemy building was cut off, and streams of mercury flowed out from the arrow holes.

Chen Xiazi hurriedly used the bamboo ladder to lift himself up to the crenellations at the top of the city. At this time, the wooden figures on the surrounding walls had stopped moving and stood on the city with a dull expression. The second row of "heavy arrows" shot also stayed in the crib because the winch stopped, and there was silence for a while.

Although there are still more than a dozen alive among the thieves trapped in the city at this moment, almost "everyone is injured and every one of them suffers a loss". They are trapped on the bamboo tower and lingering. Although the random arrows have stopped, they can't. The fire in the city was burning fiercely, and all the bones and coffins everywhere were burned. Only the bamboo tower made of centipedes hanging from the mountain ladder, which could withstand water and fire, stood alone in the sea of ​​​​fire. Those who survived were tortured by the heat wave of the fire under their feet. , like game meat roasted on the fire, each hair and eyebrows are almost bald, I feel that the air around me is about to be ignited, and it can no longer last for a moment.

The group of thieves saw that the "rudder handle" had destroyed the trap shaft of the watch tower. Now was the time to escape from the fire. The surviving thieves hurriedly threw away the rattan cards in their hands and were planning to connect the bamboo ladders to build a long one. The inclined bridge climbed to the top of the city to avoid the fire. Unexpectedly, there was a loud roar in the cave where the Wengcheng was located, and bursts of muffled thunder passed over the head. It was clearly seen in the firelight, and only wisps of fine sand fell from the sky. It seemed like a rain had fallen in the city. A sandy rain.

Everyone, including Chen Xiazi, was shocked. The government agencies in the city were intertwined with one another. Pingshan looked like a rocky mountain on the outside, but it was actually a sandy mountain. There was originally a large amount of fine sand in the rock formations, which was sandwiched between bluestones. This Wengcheng trap has another trap. If the mercury well is destroyed by external forces, a large amount of sand and stones buried in the rock formations will be drawn out, and the entire trap city will be completely buried in quicksand.

Everyone had just escaped from the fire and arrows, and saw the quicksand surging above their heads. Their hearts were trembling with shivers. What is it that makes it difficult to fly without wings? The city gates around the city are tightly closed, and the caves are blocked by huge rocks. In every breath, a large amount of quicksand will pour down. Even if you really have wings, there is nowhere to escape. In this moment, the group of thieves went from death to life. , and from birth to death, before he could care less about howling in despair, dozens of yellow dragon-like quicksands fell from the top that day.

Quicksand has always been an effective anti-theft method in ancient tombs. Once a large amount of quicksand fills the underground palace tomb, it will be impossible to dig a tomb wall and ram the earth. A hole can solve the problem because the sand is loose and flowing. No matter how much the tomb robbers dig out, the rest of the sand will flow over to fill it. Unless all the tens of millions of tons of sand inside are emptied out, the flowing fine sand will be like a tomb wall that moves on its own. Never try to break a hole in it. (To be continued.
