Chapter 424 Chapter Three: Treasure House of True and False

Without even thinking about it, Xu Ziling pressed the button. Time is running out, and their internal breathing will not last long, so they are not allowed to choose to think about it. This button is only ten steps away from the button they got caught in the net just now, if it is still a trap, they can only blame themselves for their own fate. As the two men's scalps were tingling in anticipation, the sound of a machine bracket sounded, and a wall in front was recessed, revealing a square hole. Kou Zhong squeezed past Xu Ziling and said firmly, "Let me take the lead." Xu Ziling had nothing to do with him, and said, "Be careful."

Following behind Kou Zhong and getting in, the space expands and becomes a corridor that can allow people to walk upright, extending straight up and at the end is a misty blue light. Kou Zhong stared at the light source in disbelief, stood up slowly, and said: "Is it because I have been in the dark for too long that I have an illusion." Xu Ziling also stood up, shook his head and said, "You are not mistaken, it is indeed light, but it is definitely not a light." Although the air in this corridor is not fresh, it obviously has good ventilation equipment and will not be stuffy.

Kou Zhong breathed greedily, and said: "This time we must find the right way." After all, he headed towards the light source boldly, but this time he was really cautious, lest he would make a mistake and turn into hatred if he made a mistake. Kou Zhong shouted: "My mother, is this the legendary night pearl? There are six pieces on each side. If you sell this batch of goods, it will be enough for us to have enough food and clothing for the rest of our lives!" At the end is a steel door, and there is a steel ring, and there are six shining blue pearls embedded on both sides of the door.Although the brightness is not strong, it is enough for two people to see things as if they were daylight.

Xu Ziling suddenly trembled violently, and said, "Look!" Kou Zhong followed his gaze to the left wall of the door - he saw a line of words carved on the smooth granite wall with something like a dagger, which read: "Korea Rakshasa once came here" nine words! Kou Zhong burst into tears, tremblingly said: "Mother wrote it!" With intense emotion in Xu Ziling's eyes, he stretched out his hand to caress the writing, and said, "Mother will be very pleased if she knows that we finally see her writing." Kou Zhong was so moved that he couldn't speak, thinking of Fu Junchuo's voice and smile at that time, his dying words, and their experiences over the years, how could he be emotional!

Xu Ziling pushed his shoulder lightly and said, "Go in." The two searched again, and after confirming that there were no other buttons, Kou Zhong sighed: "In Master Lu's mechanism learning volume, there is a chapter devoted to door knockers. There are more than ten ways to open the door. If the way is wrong, it will touch the button. Organ, the consequences are unpredictable." Xu Ziling frowned and said, "Is there a way to test the correct way to open the knocker?" Kou Zhong smiled wryly and said: "Is it true that I am not interested in studying the science of organs by nature? Although I have read it many times, it is still like water passing through a duck's back. I don't have much experience. Let me think about it."

Suddenly, he reached out and took the steel ring. Xu Ziling was taken aback, and said, "What do you want to do?" Kou Zhong laughed and said, "Don't worry. I remember, if you can pull out the steel ring, then there are two ways to open the door. Try other methods. If you can't pull it out, try other methods." Without waiting for Xu Ziling's advice, he pulled the door knocker back, exposing the steel cable connected to the steel ring. Kou Zhongxi said: "Successful!" Xu Ziling nodded and said, "You are a bit skilled, what is left are those two ways to open the door."

Kou Zhong said dejectedly, "Whether to turn left or right, my luck is not going to help me tonight, it's up to you to decide." Xu Ziling lost his voice and said, "Is this your so-called organ learning? I'd rather gamble or buy dice points." Kou Zhong said embarrassingly: "There should be a test method. It's just that Master Lu didn't teach me, let's try the lottery! We have at least half the chance of success." Xu Ziling looked up and down subconsciously, hoping to predict the disaster that would happen, shook his head and said: "If I had known this, I would not have accompanied you to suffer here if I threatened Jing Zhongyue. Turn left. Sigh, I am so mad at you."

Kou Zhong carefully switched his left and right hands and turned the door knocker.At the third turn, there was a "beep" sound from the steel door, which was crisp and loud. The two stopped and raised their vigilance to the peak. Kou Zhong laughed and said, "You can do it, success!" Try to push the steel door, and it will open easily, and the steel-cast sliding ball along the ground rail will open the door for convenience. Another corridor appeared in front of the eyes, and the end was submerged in the darkness, making it difficult to predict the depth.But the blowing air feels fresher.

Kou Zhong gave up his hand, bowed and said, "Young Master Ling, please enter the treasure house." Xu Ziling was about to step through the door when suddenly the machine rang. When the two people's expressions changed at the same time, there was a sudden change. Ten extra-long and extra-thick steel arrows shot from the dark place at the other end in a disorderly manner, and the piercing sound made a sharp whistling sound, which was even more ear-piercing in this quiet underground corridor.Filling up the standing space in the hallway, unless they can become paper thin, they can't be avoided.

This kind of super powerful crossbow launched by the machine is a hundred times more powerful than the arrows fired by ordinary crossbows. The only way to escape is to close the door immediately and hide behind it.Even if the skill is worse than them, as long as the reaction is fast enough, the time can still be allowed. But the two had previous criminal experience, and they faintly felt that such an easy method was not in line with Lu Miaozi's style.It is obvious that he deliberately left a gap between the sound of the machine bracket and the steel arrow piercing through the air, so that people can think and react. As long as they are not too dull and have a certain level of martial arts skills, they can definitely use the door to block the arrow.

But who can guarantee that the steel door will not be automatically closed again due to pulling, and it will never be opened. These thoughts flashed through the minds of the two of them like lightning, and they were immediately put into action. To block ten such powerful arrows at once, even if the two of them work together, they are still powerless. If it was someone else, they didn't have the ability to see things like daylight under such dim light, and even have problems seeing the incoming arrow clearly, let alone blocking the arrow! Kou Zhong's Jing Zhongyue came out from his back, rushed down, and shouted urgently: "I'll get you up!" Xu Ziling and him have a good understanding, and they have reached the state of mind-to-heart connection.He jumped on his back without hesitation.When Kou Zhong's scabbard strikes, he slashes with both palms and sideways sweeps the two strong arrows that are close to his body. With two sounds of "ding ding", Kou Zhong's saber and sheath respectively hit the two strong arrows that hit the ground.However, Xu Ziling hit the two arrows that were higher up, while the other six arrows whizzed past them, it was extremely dangerous. They all use the method of unloading force, so that the arrows are out of alignment and staggered.The rest of the momentum didn't stop, but he broke through the wall and went deep into Yingcun!If you think about the hardness of granite, you can imagine the strength of a strong arrow. The four arms were so sore and numb that they couldn't feel it. Seeing that the arrow tails are still shaking, they all have the feeling of surviving after a catastrophe. Xu Ziling got up from Kou Zhong's back, smiled wryly and said, "Remember to turn right next time." While rubbing his numb arm, Kou Zhong put the knife back into its sheath, looked for the ground, shook his head and said, "We turned the door knocker in the right direction, but we took a wrong step. Look, the stone of the floor behind the door is different from others. It's different, we stepped on it without knowing it, so it triggered a mechanism." Xu Ziling felt startled at every step, and sighed: "Mr. Lu seems to have turned this basement into a death game and testing ground for mechanics. If you can return to the world in the future, you will be considered a teacher!" Kou Zhong said confidently: "Don't worry, we can not only find the treasure house, but also go back safely!" Xu Ziling said with a smile: "You are really weird. If someone else hits a wall like this, you must lose all confidence. On the contrary, you increase your confidence. It's not weird." Kou Zhong said happily: "But I think that I have broken through every pass, and my achievements are outstanding. It should be a treasure house inside." "Crack..." Kou Zhong took out the fire light and lit it up, only to see a wall full of shooting holes at the end of the corridor, probably there must be more than thirty arrow holes.If one arrow is shot from each arrow hole, and more than 30 such powerful arrows are fired at the same time, there is really no other way but to block the arrows with a door. The two gasped as they watched. Kou Zhong said: "We are lucky! Some of the machines must be unable to shoot arrows due to disrepair for a long time, otherwise we will go back to the bottom of the well as you said, beat the wall and ask Sister Feng to save us .” Xu Ziling also saw his scalp numb, and said: "Maybe other arrows are for other treasure hunters to enjoy. From this point of view, mother should know the mechanism arrangement here, otherwise there will be arrows shot out of the ground." Kou Zhong nodded in agreement, raised Huo Yi and advanced step by step. When reaching the end of the corridor, another corridor appears on the left, connecting another space. Kou Zhongxi said: "It's here", they have learned a lesson, and they dare not be careless again.But this section of the corridor was safe and sound. After passing through the corridor, Kou Zhong held up his fire light.The two looked at each other intently, and were immediately stunned. It's not because there are too many treasure weapons in the basement, but too few.There is a long distance of 108,000 miles from Yang Gong's treasure house they imagined. This is a wide airtight basement with air vents at the four corners of the roof.A total of more than ten boxes that should be filled with rare treasures are placed in parallel on both sides, and there are dozens of weapon racks against the wall, full of various weapons.But they are just ordinary goods, and all of them are rusty and moldy, and no one wants to give them away. Kou Zhong scratched his head and said, "What's the matter? The world-famous Duke Yang's treasury looks like this? Even if these weapons, bows and arrows are not rusted, they can only be used by hundreds of people at most." Xu Ziling lifted the lid of one of the boxes, and it was full of ancient jade and treasures, all of which seemed to be of great value. After looking at more than ten boxes one by one, Kou Zhong sat down on one box and sighed: "If we ship out these fifteen boxes, we may become richer than Sha Tiannan, but we will definitely not be able to become the world with it. Overlord. According to my guess, these should be valuables that Yang Su left behind privately when he copied others' houses. Alas! It's not easy to sell these things under the current situation." Xu Ziling sat down on the opposite box, watched Kou Zhong change a new one, Huo Yi asked, "Where is the evil emperor relic?" Kou Zhong slapped his forehead, and said with a strange smile: "Well said, this is actually another kind of more serious psychological battle. If someone else was able to find this place and see these treasures, I am already ecstatic .When I found Yang Gong’s treasure house, but in fact, the real treasure house is definitely not this. Sigh! Where is it?” Xu Ziling smiled and said, "Today I really want to test your kung fu." After Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling inspected every inch of the wall of the fake warehouse, they sat down in their original positions without finding anything. Kou Zhong sighed: "Little brother only has one Huo Yi left. After burning, I have to dismantle the Ye Mingzhu. Frankly speaking, the twelve Ye Ming Pearls should be the most valuable in front of me. Only they can be called rare treasures." Xu Ziling rebelled: "The real treasury is definitely not in the fake treasury. If we have a way to enter the place where the mechanism is hidden behind the arrow hole, maybe we can find a way to enter the real treasury." Kou Zhong was startled and said: "Why can't I think of such a simple thing. Master Lu once said in his posthumous scroll that although organs can be widely distributed in different places, there must be an organ room to complete them. The noose mechanism controls the overall situation, and the opening and closing are more complicated than his grandma's. Alas! Where is the main mechanism room? If Mr. Lei has prepared stone-cutting tools for us, we can find a wall to dig and see .” Xu Ziling sneered: "Brother Lei, how could you think that your machine learning is so useless! Come on, let's study those arrow holes." "Crack" the fire was shining brightly. Kou Zhongning sat still, his eyes were shining brightly, flickering with the light of wisdom, and he was thinking hard. He couldn't stop thinking about it. Because they touched the mechanism, the original exit of the well has been closed.Even if he is willing to give up now, there is no escape. Only when they find Zhenku, will they have a chance to leave. Kou Zhong suddenly jumped up, came to sit down beside Xu Ziling, and said, "Use my palm." Xu Ziling often played this kind of game with him, spread out his right palm and said: "Huo Yi can burn for half a day at most, why don't we go outside the door to borrow the light of Ye Mingzhu." Kou Zhong said: "What if the door is suddenly closed?" Reach out and draw a sign of the cross on his palm. Xu Ziling asked puzzled, "What is this?" Kou Zhong said triumphantly: "Master Lu has a saying, when you build a secret room underground, you must first locate it, and the one who locates it orients itself. The cross is used as the east, west, north, south, and others can be positioned according to this cross, so the size can be exactly the same. You Look, if the entrance corridor and the corridor leading to the false warehouse can be extended in reverse, it will just form a cross after drawing." Xu Ziling nodded and said, "Sure enough, I have some skill, why didn't I think of it just now." Kou Zhong forced him to expose the scar, and said embarrassingly: "When a person is in a desperate situation, he must struggle to survive. Come on!" The two returned to the wall full of arrow holes, facing the long corridor and the open iron gate behind them. Kou Zhong peeped through the hole, and flicked away tremblingly: "My mother, you are right. There are still arrows in the hole that can be shot at any time!" Xu Ziling was surprised and said: "So, not only is the wall thin, but there should be some distance between the arrow and the arrow hole. Otherwise, how could Huo Yiguang shine in and let you see the arrow?" Kou Zhongdao: "The distance is at least one foot, maybe this wall can move. There are only seven or eight ways to install the living wall in the scroll, I hope it won't touch the mechanism again, then I can try it one by one. " Then he became excited and said: "The first method is to push inward. If there is a wheel shaft underneath, it will slide in and reveal a smooth and smooth road to the blessed land." Raise your hand and push against the wall as you speak. The sound of the machine sounded. The two of them lost their souls and retreated to the corridor leading to the false warehouse on the left. Huo Yi flew away with his hands and hit the wall on the right, sparks flew everywhere. Ten powerful arrows shot out and roared away! "Boom" the two fell on the ground, you looked at me, and just as the panic subsided, Kou Zhong probed to look; the ring door was closed, and the light of the night pearl would never be seen again! The crashed fire was extinguished and plunged into pitch blackness. For the first time, the two regretted not taking off the Ye Mingzhu for emergency response. Xu Ziling said: "Since you have done the first day of the junior high school, it is better to do the fifteenth day. Let's push it again and let the arrows in the wall clear the light." Kou Zhong said: "Good idea." Just like that, he raised his legs and feet, and kicked hard at the arrow wall. "Dangdang" sounded in succession, and all the arrows shot hit the steel door. Two more kicks, the arrow wall no longer responds. The two jumped up and moved to the arrow wall in the dark. Xu Ziling said with a smile: "This treasure hunt is really thrilling and interesting. If your method of opening the door is no longer effective, we are afraid that we will be an eternal witness for the clichéd proverb that 'man dies for money'." Kou Zhongdao: "Don't worry, unless it's Shi Zhixuan, the master wouldn't be willing to kill his apprentice. Pooh!" Press hard and hard, and the wall should sink two inches. Kou Zhong was overjoyed and said: "Sure enough, there is a wheel shaft underneath. Now, as long as the wall is lifted up, it can be turned into a trap door. We are dragons and snakes, so we need to see this shop!" After saying that, insert two fingers into the arrow hole on both sides, and lift up with strength. The wall rose up, Xu Ziling hurriedly reached out and grabbed the bottom of the living wall to help Kou Zhong. Amidst the creaking sound of the axle wheel sliding, the only hope for the two of them was that it would go up obediently. Kou Zhong suddenly withdrew his finger and shouted: "Stop!" Only half of the Shimen retreated into the top wall, Xu Ziling said, "What's the matter?" Kou Zhong still had lingering fears and said: "It's enough to go in, it's better to restore the living wall properly." Xu Ziling expressed his approval, and after the two got in, the living wall fell back and was pushed back to its original position. In the dark, the two groped around, but they didn't dare to touch the mechanism that fired the arrow. It was a square basement room with a width of about twenty steps, and the air flowed smoothly, making the two of them feel that they had found the right place. Kou Zhong suddenly shouted: "Chengli! There is another living wall here, we are saved!"
