The man was brought over. In the dark, his appearance could not be seen. After removing his blindfold, Lu Yunzheng took out a tinderbox and blew it to light it.
When the man saw the dead body on the ground, he suddenly collapsed, struggled and threw himself on the dead body, moaning.
Jiang Nanhao saw the man's reaction and said, "They should be guarding. It seems that the way Miss Liu led is correct. Let's kill him and continue forward."
Before Liu Qiaoer could stop him, Jiang Nanhao's men slashed with their swords and killed the sentry.
They came up secretly all the way so as not to be discovered, but Liu Qiaoer didn't know the way, and even Lu Yunzheng found it cruel.
"Why do you want to kill him? Wouldn't it be better to let him lead the way?"
Jiang Nanhao shook his head: "No, since this is the road leading to the robbers' lair, there must be a trap. We don't have many people to begin with. If he leads us into the trap, I'm afraid none of us will be able to return."
It seems that Jiang Nanhao was frightened by this group of bandits.
At this time, it's either you die or I die. Liu Qiaoer didn't say anything and led the team forward.
"There are people at ten o'clock in the southwest and three o'clock in the northwest, seven hundred meters apart."
"I think I know the pattern of his deployment. It is arranged according to the Eight Diagrams Plum Blossom Formation. This is a plum blossom pile diagram handed down from ancient times and used for training."
In the space, Long Batian quickly analyzed the opponent's defense route.
After Liu Qiaoer killed three sentinels in succession, she analyzed the situation to Lu Yunzheng and Jiang Nanhao.
"It seems that a master has come to the bandit's den. He knows military tactics and the Yin-Yang and Eight Diagrams. He should be here soon. Send someone back to get reinforcements. We can take them down in one fell swoop tomorrow morning."
Next, Liu Qiaoer drew a route map, one for Qi Ze to go back, and the other for Jiang Nanhao.
Qi Ze just needs to go back along the same route, while Jiang Nanhao will be responsible for removing the traps on the road and opening a way up the mountain.
The remaining Liu Qiaoer and Lu Yunzheng continued to move forward, leaving marks, and after reaching the bandit’s lair, they waited for reinforcements.
At this time, it was already dawn and the road in the woods was unclear, but it was already light outside. I don't know what time they would change shifts, but they didn't have much time left.
"Look, there's smoke over there..."
It's almost dawn. The ancient people basically went to bed at night and woke up at dawn.
At this time, some hardworking people have already started to get up and make breakfast.
After seeing the smoke, Lu Yunzheng took Liu Qiaoer and slowly approached, but they did not see the house. The smoke came from a hillside.
Liu Qiaoer asked Long Batian to use a detector to survey the terrain.
But just when Lu Yunzheng wanted to move forward, Long Batian in the space exclaimed.
"Don't go any further. There are traps and wolves. It's best to hide in a tree."
Liu Qiaoer looked around. Although she didn't see any wolves, her keen sense of survival in the apocalypse made her feel that the surroundings were too quiet.
Generally, there are sounds in the woods in the morning, such as birds singing, insects chirping, and the sound of fallen leaves rubbing against the ground when animals walk.
They either come out to look for food or go home to sleep.
But this place is so quiet that there are not even any animals, which means it is dangerous.
Animals have sharper perception than humans.
Long Batian continued to survey the surrounding terrain and conditions.
Liu Qiaoer and Lu Yunzheng found a big tree and climbed up.
Standing high and seeing far, Liu Qiaoer looked more and more that something was wrong. The key point was that she seemed to have discovered a mechanism.
It seemed to be some silk, which was reflected by the morning sunlight and was seen by Liu Qiaoer.
Liu Qiaoer took out the crossbow and used the sight on it, and indeed she found a filament as thin as a hair.
After telling the location to Long Batian, Long Batian asked Liu Qiaoer to cut the thread of the mechanism with a dagger.
Liu Qiaoer's kung fu was not good, so she asked Lu Yunzheng to do it. Lu Yunzheng didn't see anything at first, but after Liu Qiaoer's guidance, he changed to her tricky angle and sure enough, he saw the filaments.
Lu Yunzheng threw out the dagger and cut the silk thread. Not knowing whether the mechanism was destroyed, Liu Qiaoer suggested catching a rabbit.
Lu Yunzheng’s martial arts eyesight was better than Liu Qiaoer’s, and his hands were also good. He climbed down from the tree, and after a while, he really caught a rabbit and threw it to the place where the silk thread broke.
The mechanism was not activated, but when the rabbit ran forward again, suddenly, it stepped on something and heard a creaking sound like a wooden door.
A door actually opened on the hillside not far away.
"There are no people living in the mountains. There are more than a thousand bandits. Could it be that they live in the mountains?"
This was a bit puzzling to Lu Yunzheng.
Liu Qiao'er was also wondering when she heard Long Batian say, "We found an ancient tomb here. The space inside is quite large, and there are traces of human activity."
Liu Qiaoer entered the space and took a look. Sure enough, the computer screen showed red dots moving under the hillside. These red dots were heat sources, and the detector detected living things through heat sources.
At the end of the world, they may also encounter landslides, wars, or underground safe houses.
The detector ensures that they can find a safe hiding place when they are outside.
Ancient tomb? Liu Qiaoer was shocked. Could it be that she was going to experience tomb robbery
In her spare time, she also reads some old-fashioned thriller novels. Tomb robbing happens to be the type of adventure she likes. If she could really experience it, it would be a very interesting experience.
Eager to try, even a little bit looking forward to it.
"Shall we go and take a look?"
Long Batian stopped her, "No, no, the path inside is hard to detect and there are too many people. If you go in, you may not be able to get out. Besides, bombs cannot be used in ancient tombs."
Liu Qiaoer rolled her eyes speechlessly. It was the rule of the end times again. All ancient tombs detected would be sealed and would be kept until peace on Earth. Then protective excavations would be carried out to prevent them from being destroyed by aliens and zombies.
They protect the earth, and they also protect the earth's civilization.
Liu Qiaoer told Lu Yunzheng what she had detected, and Lu Yunzheng nodded: "To be on the safe side, let's wait for the reinforcements to arrive, and then we can lure them out."
The two waited on the tree for another half an hour, but for some unknown reason, the reinforcements brought by Jiang Nanhao did not arrive.
It was time to change shifts, and people were walking out of the door on the hillside one after another.
Some of them carried hoes, some held bows and arrows, and some carried bamboo baskets.
They live off the land and hunt for food.
During the day, there are more people and it is safer.
A group of about ten people headed east, deep into the mountains, to look for food.
A team of four or five people walked westward and out of the mountain, probably to change guard.
At this moment, someone suddenly shouted, "The silver wire is broken, why is our mechanism broken?"
They never thought that the mechanism would be destroyed without reason. They only thought that their ropes were not strong enough.
Then someone went back to report.
Not long after, a young man appeared from the hillside. He was wearing a cotton jacket and a cloak, with his long hair casually tied up on his head. He walked out with his hands in his pockets.
The attitude made him feel like he was the best in the world.
"The mechanism is broken? Impossible, absolutely impossible. My silk is very strong. Unless you use a very sharp knife, you can't cut it at all."
"Coke, Sprite, you two go check it out."
