Chapter 122 The Skill to Save Life
Chapter 122 The Skill to Save Life
Prince An asked Zhan Feng to hold Xu Huaishui back, and the three of them came to Xu Huaishui's room and entered the inner room.
Prince An went straight to a candlestick next to the bed that Zhan Feng mentioned, turned it to the right, and heard a clicking sound.
The bed slowly moved away, revealing a door that was two people wide. The three of them were very surprised. Prince An wanted to go in first.
Wang Jingshan stopped him and said, "Your Majesty, we don't know what's going on inside, so it's better for me to be in the front."
He was in the lead, Prince An was in the middle, and Jin Yuyao was at the end.
Wang Jingshan walked forward cautiously, and suddenly felt as if he stepped on something, and then several sharp arrows shot from the front.
He immediately pulled Prince An aside. Jin Yuyao, hearing something was wrong, also leaned over. Five arrows flew past the three of them.
Prince An was so frightened that he broke out in a sweat and said, "Xu Huaishui is quite cautious."
Wang Jingshan said: "Let's be careful."
He was always ahead, eliminating all the traps one by one.
Then there is a long passage.
Wang Jingshan took out a tinderbox and lit it.
The passage lit up.
The three of them continued walking forward.
After walking for a long time, Prince An said, "Why is it always a passage? Could we have made a mistake?"
Wang Jingshan said, "Look at the mechanism we've been walking towards. It's empty, so it shouldn't be equipped with so many mechanisms."
Prince An said: "What if it is just to conceal the truth?"
Jin Yuyao suggested, "How about we go another two hundred steps forward and if the situation is still the same, we turn back?"
Prince An and Wang Jingshan also agreed.
When he had walked exactly a hundred steps, Wang Jingshan saw an open space with a night-shining pearl the size of an egg on top, illuminating the place as if it were daytime.
The center of the room was filled with large boxes.
When Wang Jingshan opened the box, he was dazzled to see that it was a box of silver. When Wang Jingshan opened the cabinet next to it, he saw a box of gold.
Just as he was about to open the third box, a sinister voice rang out, "You really didn't take the path to heaven, but chose to seek death instead. I'll grant your wish. I didn't expect you were so capable as to find your way here."
The three of them turned around at the same time and saw Xu Huaishui standing at the door.
At this time, Xu Huaishui had a sinister smile on his face.
Prince An said, "Xu Huaishui, what do you want to do?"
After hearing this, Xu Huaishui burst into laughter.
After he finished laughing, he said, "What are you doing? Shouldn't I be the one asking you this? Isn't it good to live a good life? Why do you have to come and oppose me? Now that you're here, you still want to leave? You're dreaming. You're lucky to have so many treasures to keep you company."
Prince An said, "Do you dare to kill me?"
Xu Huaishui smiled and said, "What's there to be afraid of? It was just an accident."
Prince An said, "Surprise? Do you think my father will believe it?"
Xu Huaishui laughed and said, "It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. He's already dead, so what else can we do? You're just an ordinary prince in front of the emperor."
Prince An angrily asked, "Are you planning a rebellion?"
Xu Huaishui smiled instead of getting angry and said, "Guess what? Since you like this place, then stay."
After saying that, he wanted to leave.
Wang Jingshan thought that Xu Huaishui didn't know martial arts, so he just went up and captured him, and all these problems would be solved.
He flew forward and slapped Xu Huaishui, but he dodged it.
Wang Jingshan was shocked and said, "You actually know martial arts?"
"Everyone has to have some ability to save their lives, otherwise they won't know how they died."
Jin Yuyao watched Xu Huaishui and Wang Jingshan fighting. Soon they had already fought for fifty moves. Xu Huaishui was quite good at fighting. It seemed that his martial arts skills were not weak.
Xu Huaishui took advantage of Wang Jingshan's unpreparedness and slapped him on the chest.
Wang Jingshan took a few steps back before stabilizing himself. He spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed against the wall. Jin Yuyao ran over, squatted down, and asked with concern, "Jingshan, how are you feeling?"
Wang Jingshan wiped the blood from the corner of his lips and said, "I'm fine."
Xu Huaishui turned and left: "Haven't you been looking for this place? Then dying here would be a good thing for you."
After he finished speaking, a large stone door appeared from nowhere and slowly fell down.
Jin Yuyao helped Wang Jingshan and Prince An up and wanted to rush out.
Just as Xu Haishui was about to turn around, Xu Huaishui slowly fell down.
Xu Huaishui fell to the ground, and only a piece of his clothes could be seen behind him.
The stone gate slowly fell down.
Finally, Zhan Feng's voice came: "Your Highness, please wait a moment. I will definitely find the switch."
As soon as Zhan Feng finished speaking, the stone door closed.
Jin Yuyao asked.
"Can you wait here for a moment while I see if there's a switch inside?"
Wang Jingshan endured the pain and could not speak, but just nodded.
Jin Yuyao and Prince An were looking for the switch in the basement.
The two searched once, only to find someone shaking their heads and start looking again. They couldn't just sit there and wait for death.
Zhan Feng was also outside anxiously looking for the switch, but he couldn't find it after turning around several times.
Zhan Feng was so angry that he kicked Xu Huaishui's body a few more times.
"You're so bad that you're leaving others with problems even after your death."
Zhan Feng searched for several times but still couldn't find it. The longer he searched, the more anxious he became.
At this time, footsteps were heard.
Zhan Feng was on full alert, thinking that it couldn't be Xu Huaishui's accomplice.
As the footsteps get closer.
Zhan Feng hid in the dark, heard that there were quite a few people coming, and waited for them to come closer.
He put the knife directly on the man's neck.
Zhan Feng looked carefully and said, "Master Chen, why is it you?"
He immediately put the knife away.
Chen Qianhe said, "Didn't you ask me to stop Xu Huaishui? When I failed to stop him, I thought something was wrong, so I rushed over. Hey, Xu Huaishui is dead."
Zhan Feng said, "If he lowers the stone gate and locks the prince and Wang Jingshan and his wife inside, I will kill him."
Chen Qianhe said: "Did you ask him to turn it on?"
Zhan Feng shook his head.
Chen Qianhe sighed: "If he's dead, then he's dead. But have you found him?"
Zhan Feng said, "I haven't found it yet."
Chen Qianhe and Zhan Feng also searched together but found nothing.
He looked at the smooth walls around him and then at Chen Qianhe's body.
Walking over, Chen Qianhe squatted down and searched Xu Huaishui's body but found nothing.
He murmured, "This shouldn't be the case."
He saw the jade pendant around Xu Huaishui's waist.
Chen Qianhe took it down and compared it with the stone gate.
When he saw there was also a circle on the door, he stood up and walked over to put the jade pendant inside.
I just put it in and there is no reaction yet.
Just when he was about to take it out, he heard the sound of the stone door loosening.
The stone gate slowly rose up.
Zhan Feng admired him and said, "Master Chen is still the most powerful."
Chen Qianhe said, "I just understand his personality. He likes to carry important things with him and doesn't trust anyone."
Inside, Jin Yuyao and Prince An opened all the boxes, which were full of gold, silver and jewelry. This should have been a happy thing, but now they couldn't get out, and they couldn't be happy guarding a pile of gold, silver and jewelry.
When the three of them were looking worriedly at the gold, silver and jewelry in front of them, Jin Yu heard the sound of the stone door moving.
I took a look at it and wondered if it was an illusion. I kept thinking how great it would be if Zhan Feng suddenly found the switch outside and turned it on.
There was still a sound of the stone door loosening. Jin Yuyao turned around and saw that the stone door was indeed moving.
Jin Yuyao said in surprise, "Jingshan, Your Majesty, look, the stone gate is moving."
