Chapter 125: Flame Stone, Fatal Mechanism
Chapter 125: Flame Stone, Fatal Mechanism
About ten seconds later.
The bronze spears began to slowly retract.
Just when they shrunk halfway, Xu Feng let go and jumped down.
"Come on!"
Xu Feng let out a low roar and rushed forward.
Zhang Qiling, Wu Sanxing and Pan Zi also fell down and followed Xu Feng.
Just two or three seconds.
Xu Feng jumped to Wu Xie's side, who was more than ten meters away.
This guy was still rubbing his butt with a grin on his face.
Although Xu Feng's kick just now was skillful, it still knocked him unconscious even though the kick was more than ten meters away.
But he did save his life.
With the height of Xu Feng and the others, there was certainly no problem with the hedging action just now.
But Wu Xie is the shortest among the five, about 1.7 meters tall.
Xu Feng did it for insurance.
That's why Wu Xie was kicked out of the attack range of the mechanism.
He pulled up the dusty Wu Xie.
Without waiting for Wu Xie to ask, Xu Feng said, "Run! The trap is not over yet!"
The crackling sounds from the walls on both sides have not yet stopped.
This shows that the operation is still going on.
Wu Xie's mind was still thinking about why Xu Feng kicked him, and he didn't think about so much else.
Fortunately, Wu Sansheng also caught up at this time.
He grabbed Wu Xie and threw him onto his back.
"Xu Feng, thank you very much!"
Wu Sansheng said as he ran wildly.
At this time he also understood that Xu Feng was just saving Wu Xie.
"It should!"
Xu Feng did not take any credit.
But when Wu Xie heard these words, they felt a little hurt.
I was nearly kicked to death.
You two are being polite now?!
Pan Zi caught up and said to Wu Sansheng, "Master San, leave the young Master San to me."
"Stop talking nonsense! Pay attention to the mechanism!"
Wu Sanxing cursed him.
At this moment, Xu Feng shouted: "Be careful above your head and under your feet!"
Wu Xie looked up.
I saw countless small holes suddenly appearing on the ceiling of the tomb passage.
The same goes for the floor tiles underfoot.
Judging from the visual coverage, the area is at least twenty meters.
Xu Feng braked in time and then backed up immediately.
Twenty meters, it will take at least five seconds to rush over!
not enough time!
It’s better to retreat first and wait for the trap to end before going over.
Wu Sansheng and his men also retreated to a safe area.
Then they saw that about fifty meters ahead, the walls on both sides began to move slowly.
They are closing in!
The faces of Xu Feng and others suddenly turned gloomy.
If the walls of the tomb passage close together, it will become a dead end.
Ah!
At this time, the trap in front of them also appeared, and countless bronze spears suddenly pierced out from the ceiling and floor.
Wu Xie was stunned.
He was so dizzy from the fall just now that he didn't notice this. Now that he saw it with his own eyes, he was so shocked that his hair was numb!
He opened his mouth to say something.
Suddenly, there was a loud bang in the passage behind him.
It was as if something extremely heavy had fallen from a great height.
Xu Feng and the others felt the ground shaking.
"What the hell!"
"earthquake?!"
They looked at the dark passage behind them with either indifference, caution, or fear.
A rumbling sound gradually sounded.
At first, the sound was very small.
But gradually, the sound became louder and louder, as if something was rolling.
And the rolling speed is getting faster and faster, and getting closer and closer.
Wu Sanxing's expression suddenly changed.
"Rolling Stones!!"
Hearing Wu Sanxing's words, Xu Feng and others' expressions also changed.
The Rolling Stones?!
Xu Feng had night vision. He looked far ahead and could vaguely see a huge rock with flat sides, like a wheel, rolling towards them in the darkness.
Xu Feng's heart suddenly felt alarmed.
No wonder the tomb passage is a slope.
When he came in, he was wondering why such a tomb passage was built.
It turns out it was prepared for this huge rock.
That huge rock must weigh at least tens of thousands of pounds. If it were to come crashing down like that, all of them would be crushed into meat scraps.
"Go! It's really the Rolling Stones!!"
Xu Feng shouted.
"But how do we get there?!"
Pan Zi pointed at the bronze spear that had not yet begun to retract and said anxiously.
Judging from the situation just now, it will take them more than ten seconds to slowly shrink back.
By the time they completely retracted, their bodies were already cold.
“If there is no road, make one!”
Xu Feng took out the Ghost Sword and swung it with force.
Dozens of bronze spears were chopped off in an instant.
"Mute, you chop the top and I'll chop the bottom."
Xu Feng shouted.
Zhang Qiling also drew out the Black Kirin and joined the "cutting down" ranks.
Just two or three breaths.
They advanced two or three meters.
Ten seconds later.
They have advanced more than ten meters.
At this time, the bronze spear began to retract.
But the Stones were getting closer.
They could already feel the ground beneath their feet beginning to shake.
"Hurry!!"
"It's over, it's too late!"
"Look ahead, the wall is about to close!"
Listening to the shouts of Wu Xie and Pan Zi behind me.
Xu Feng shouted loudly: "Shut up!!"
Wu Xie and Pan Zi shut up instantly.
As the bronze spear began to retract, Zhang Qiling stopped chopping at the upper ones. He and Xu Feng chopped at the lower ones together.
Together, the two of them went much faster.
Just four or five seconds.
Xu Feng and Zhang Qiling lunged forward and finally managed to pass the trap.
The two men didn't stop, they rolled over on the ground, then used the force to stand up and ran forward with all their might!
Wu Sansheng and the other two also rushed over from behind.
At this time, the Rolling Stones were already clearly visible.
It rushed towards Xu Feng and his companions with tremendous power.
"Run!"
Wu Sanxing and Pan Zi, one on the left and one on the right, pulled Wu Xie and ran wildly.
Xu Feng and Zhang Qiling were the first to rush to the wall that was about to close.
At this point, they were already more than half closed, and the remaining space was roughly the size of two people standing side by side.
The moving wall is about ten meters long.
With Xu Feng and Zhang Qiling's speed like cheetahs, they rushed over in just three or four seconds.
But when they looked back.
Wu Sansheng and his two companions had just reached the entrance of the wall. At this time, the gap between the walls was only enough for one person to pass through.
At their speed, they definitely won’t be able to make it.
It wasn't just Xu Feng who noticed it.
Wu Sansheng and the others also noticed it.
The rolling stones behind them were only a dozen meters away from them.
They now only have two options.
One rushed into the wall and was crushed into a pulp.
One is to wait there and then be crushed into pieces by the boulder.
There is no third way!
Suddenly, the three people's faces were filled with despair.
Just at this time.
Xu Feng angrily said: "What are you thinking about!!!"
The three were awakened.
Then he saw crossed weapons on both sides in front of Xu Feng.
It turned out that Xu Feng had stuck his Ghost Blade and Zhang Qiling's Black Kirin on the patterns on the wall, and forcibly propped up the wall so that they could no longer close.
But the ears can clearly hear the clicking sound coming from the mechanism in the wall.
And the place where the tips of the two weapons are touching.
As the walls squeezed harder, debris kept flying out, and it was obvious that they wouldn't be able to hold out for long.
"Come here quickly!! You can't hold out for long!!"
Xu Feng cursed.
Wu Sansheng and the other two immediately rushed into the gap in the wall.
It seemed as if the desire to survive activated the potential in their bodies, and they moved extremely fast.
Especially Wu Xie.
He, the slowest runner, actually caught up with Wu Sansheng and Pan Zi.
As he was running last, he rushed out of the gap in the wall.
Xu Feng quickly took out the two weapons.
Without the support of two weapons.
The wall suddenly closed up like a spring that had been compressed for a long time.
at the same time.
The boulder also hit the closing wall hard.
Xu Feng and his companions only heard a loud bang.
In an instant, it seemed as if the earth was shaking.
Debris and ash continued to fall from the ceiling of the passage.
Xu Feng took two steps back, fanned the ashes in front of him, then looked at Wu Sansheng and the other two who had gotten up from the ground, and chuckled, "Congratulations, you've escaped!"
Wu Sansheng couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Wu Xie bent over, supported his knees with his hands, and said with a grateful smile while breathing heavily: "Thank you, Xu Feng, if it weren't for you, we would be dead."
Xu Feng looked at him with amusement: "I have saved you several times, is just thanking you enough?!"
Wu Xie waved his hand and said, "I'll treat you to a big meal when we get back, okay?"
Xu Feng smiled.
Then look ahead.
The sloping tomb passage has reached its end.
There is an arch in front.
It was pitch black behind the arch and I didn't know what was behind it.
"Have you rested well?"
Xu Feng asked: "After resting, we are about to set off!"
Wu Xie stood up and tried to slow down his breathing: "I'm fine!"
"Then let's go and see what's waiting for us next!"
Five people walked into the archway with flashlights.
After walking through a passage several meters long, they entered a very spacious tomb chamber.
"Oh my god! What the hell is this place?!"
When Wu Xie used the flashlight to clearly see the situation in the tomb, he instantly cried out in fear!
It's not just him.
Xu Feng and the others were also stunned.
I saw that this spacious tomb was filled with stone pillars about one meter high and as thick as arms.
There are so many of them, at least hundreds of them.
If it were just stone pillars, it wouldn't be a big deal.
The problem is that there is a child squatting on each stone pillar.
A spooky child.
Hundreds of stone pillars represent hundreds of children.
They seemed to be sleeping, motionless and without making any sound.
But soon, Xu Feng discovered something was wrong.
"No, these kids aren't real!"
Hear him say that.
Wu Sansheng and the others also came to their senses.
They all looked carefully at the child on the stone pillar closest to them.
"Not true?!"
"No way, it looks like a real person!"
Wu Xie muttered.
After a while.
Wu Sansheng and the others all breathed a sigh of relief. After identification, they found that those children were indeed not real.
They are not real people at all, but puppets.
It's just because it's so realistic, and the light here is dim, so it gives people the illusion of being a real person.
But if you look closely, you can still easily distinguish them.
Pan Zi was so angry that he yelled, "Fuck! I didn't expect that we would be scared by some puppets. If this gets out, how will we survive?"
As he said this, he was about to go up and destroy the puppet.
But he was grabbed by Wu Sansheng.
"Idiot, use your brain, can't you see that this place is weird?!"
"You are so reckless. If you trigger some mechanism, won't we have to flee again?!"
Pan Zi immediately lost his temper.
He even felt a little aggrieved: "Third Master, I'm sorry, I was blinded by anger just now. Since I entered the tomb, everything has gone wrong. I almost died in that tomb passage just now, so I couldn't control myself for a while."
"Okay, your mental state is getting worse and worse."
Wu Sansheng glared at him.
Xu Feng ignored the two of them and looked at the other puppets.
These puppets reminded him of the Nine-story Demon Tower in the ancient city of Jingjue, where there were also many puppets.
But most of those puppets were hanging.
Then he got a treasure there.
A substitute puppet that can take a fatal injury on behalf of its master.
Having it is like having an extra life.
“Could it be that among these puppets, there are also substitute puppets?!
"If it really exists, we'll be rich!"
"Of course, the more of this kind of treasure that can save lives, the better!"
Xu Feng thought to himself.
Then he found that the light here was really dim, and it was difficult to see the puppet in the distance with just a flashlight.
"It would be nice if there was a brazier here."
"Huh? What is that?!"
Xu Feng suddenly saw many lanterns in the tomb.
Hanging in a circle along the perimeter of the wall.
Then mixed in among those stone pillars, there were also some lamp posts more than two meters high, with lanterns hanging on them.
He walked to the wall and took down a lantern.
Look inside.
As a result, Xu Feng was stunned.
There was not a candle in the lantern, but a red stone.
