Chapter 461
When Liu Yong and Zhu Sanjia walked out of the temple, they saw a dark bottomless abyss in front of them. However, everyone knew that there was a stone beam between the edge of the steps outside the temple gate and the stone arch bridge, with silver powder sprinkled by Situ Bridge on it. As long as you shine it with a torch
, the light will flicker, revealing a passage. So Liu Yong walked to the bottom stone step holding the torch, raised the torch based on his memory, and shined into the abyss.
However, although Liu Yong shined the torch into the abyss, there was no light of silver powder in front of his eyes.
Liu Yong's heart sank, and he immediately knew what had happened.
Deng Yao and Lin Yilang, who left first, did not let everyone go. They quietly exited the Jingxin Temple. When passing the stone beam on the bottomless abyss, they stepped back and swept the silver powder on the stone beam into the abyss. In this way, everyone
If you want to walk onto the stone arch bridge, you cannot see clearly where the stone beams are, so you can only walk forward in the dark. Above this bottomless abyss, although there is only a distance of five or six feet from the temple gate to the stone arch bridge, you can only explore cautiously.
If you keep moving forward, you will fall into the abyss if you are not careful.
Liu Yong told everyone about the situation. Everyone was furious and scolded Deng Yao and Lin Yilang for their evil intentions and no respectable demeanor of a martial arts school. Li Qiufeng thought in his heart: "This is a bit strange. Deng Yao
Did He and Lin Yilang know that we couldn't find a way out after the main hall, so they escaped first? Besides, although the two of them are despicable, they are still the leaders of the Beggar Clan and the leader of the Songshan Sect. This move is openly in conflict with the Huashan Sect, Kunlun Sect, and the Songshan Sect.
The Qingcheng sect and the Taihua sect are enmity. Unless they have determined that the four great masters Liu Yong, Chu Danyang, Xu Chenghe, and Taoist Qingfeng will not be able to leave Jingxin Temple alive, they will never do such a thing without leaving a way out."
While he was thinking about it, he heard Zhu Sanjia say: "Although the two dog thieves are insidious, doing this is of no use. We only need to ask Situ Qiao for silver powder, and we can naturally make the stone beam appear again."
After Zhu Sanjia finished speaking, Qingfeng Taoist shook his head and said: "Mr. Zhu may not know that the silver powder in Situ Qiao's hand has been completely used up. Before we entered Jingxin Temple, under the stone arch bridge opposite us, Pindao saw him
There was not much silver powder left in his hand. When he arrived in front of the temple, he had very little silver powder left..."
Murong Danyan didn't wait for Taoist Qingfeng to finish speaking, and said first: "How much is left? That's how much there is, and there is still some. I went to ask him for it and try to see if it can be useful."
After Murong Danyan finished speaking, she turned around and ran back to the temple. Li Qiufeng was afraid that she would be in danger when she went to find Situ Qiao alone, so he followed her in. When the two of them arrived in the yard, they saw Situ Qiao still there even after a long distance.
Walking back and forth in the hall. When the two of them arrived at the entrance of the hall, Situ Qiao gave them a cold look and said, "I have already said, you can go your own way, I will never leave."
Murong Danyan sneered and said, "We don't want you to leave either. Give us your silver powder."
Situ Qiao was startled and said, "Don't you guys still want to give up and still want to find a passage in the abyss?"
Murong Danyan said bitterly: "What are you looking for? The silver powder on the stone beam we passed when we came here has been wiped out by the two thieves Deng Yao and Lin Yilang. If we want to go back the way we came,
, we have to use silver powder to find the stone beam again..."
Situ Qiao's face changed drastically, and he said in a trembling voice: "How could this happen? I had expected that these two bastards were determined to kill me, but I didn't expect that they would not even let you go!"
Murong Danyan said: "What are we and yours?! It is proper to take out the silver powder as soon as possible. You can rest assured that we are different from those two thieves. We will not sweep away the silver powder after we use the silver powder to find Shiliang and leave.
When you leave, you can retreat along the stone beam into the cave at the foot of the mountain."
Situ Qiao spread his hands and said with a frustrated look: "The silver powder has been used up, and it's useless for you to find me."
Murong Danyan's expression changed and he asked, "Is there nothing left?"
Situ Qiao said: "No. It is quiet and windless in the heart of the mountain. After we walked through, if someone did not deliberately destroy it, the silver powder would not scatter. Therefore, when we arrived in front of the Jingxin Temple, when I sprinkled the silver powder, there was not much
I think I’ve used up all the silver powder.”
When he said this, he complained that everyone had not noticed the sudden evil intentions of Deng Yao and Lin Yilang. Murong Danyan was annoyed and shouted: "What's the use of saying this now?" After saying that, he turned to Li Qiufeng and said:
"Brother Li, it looks like we have to walk back step by step from the stone beam in the dark."
Li Qiufeng thought to himself: "The stone beam hangs over the bottomless abyss. If you can't see your feet clearly, it is extremely dangerous to walk on the stone beam. But judging from the martial arts of everyone, even if there is no silver powder to guide the way,
As long as you are careful, it is not difficult to pass through the stone beam. Deng Yao and Lin Yilang swept away the silver powder, not because they thought that everyone would fall into the abyss from the stone beam, but because they wanted to slow down the speed of everyone's return, making them
You can meet up with the heroes first. When the time comes, the two of them will stir up trouble and join forces with the heroes to pick off the four factions of Huashan, Kunlun, Qingcheng, and Taihua, and even kill themselves, Murong Danyan, and the Zhu family. By then,
The Beggars Gang and the Songshan Sect can now dominate the world and become the two most famous gangs in the world along with Shaolin and Wudang."
Thinking of this, Li Qiufeng was also anxious. He didn't want to waste any more time in Jingxin Temple, so he said to Murong Danyan: "We'd better leave here as soon as possible. If we are overtaken by the two thieves Deng Yao and Lin Yilang,
, I’m afraid the situation is going to be very bad.”
The two of them were about to leave the yard, and Situ Qiao hurriedly said: "I'll leave with you, and maybe we can take care of each other."
Murong Danyan sneered and said, "Don't you want to find any more clues on these two corpses?"
Situ Qiao said: "Now that I know that Yao Guangxiao has such an end, my wish is over. Besides, there is nothing on this person, just a withered skeleton. Although I am determined to find the formation map of the Jianxing Formation, my life is
I still want it. If I don’t leave with you at this time, and I’m left alone with no silver powder to guide me, I’m afraid I really have to stay with Yao Guangxiao.”
Situ Qiao said while holding a torch and walked out of the temple gate. Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan turned around and walked towards the temple gate. However, their backs were to Situ Qiao and they did not see a very strange expression suddenly appear on his face.
smile.
The three people hurriedly walked out of the temple gate. Li Qiufeng told the story that Situ Qiao had run out of silver powder. Although everyone had heard what Taoist Qingfeng said, they still had a glimmer of hope in their hearts. At this time, their hope failed, and everyone was disappointed.
He looked frustrated.
Situ Qiao said: "You are all martial arts masters. To be so frustrated when encountering such a trivial matter is not worthy of your status. I still remember where Shi Liang is. We just need to be careful, and it won't be a big deal.
risk……"
Before he finished speaking, Chu Danyang frowned and said, "But if this happens, we won't be able to catch up with Deng Yao and Lin Yilang. These two thieves swept away the silver powder just to kill us."
Hold on so that they can rush back first. When the two of them stir up trouble and stir up trouble, our disciples who stay in the cave below will be in great misfortune."
Liu Yong and others had already figured out the joints here, and they looked worried at this time. Situ Qiao said: "Let's hurry up, there may be hope. Although most of the mechanisms along the way have been cracked by me, only the remaining
If a few traps were triggered, it would be enough for these two bastards to drink a pot. I see that although the stinky beggar and that hypocrite are good at martial arts, they don't know how to trap messages. The two of them ran back triumphantly, maybe
The mechanism will be triggered. Even if the two of them are lucky enough to survive, their walking speed will be greatly reduced. As long as we pass two stone bridges, the road will be smooth, and it will not be difficult to catch up with these two bastards."
After hearing what Situ Qiao said, everyone immediately cheered up. After discussion, Situ Qiao still led the way, and everyone followed closely. Situ Qiao held a torch in his left hand and found the connection between the stone steps and the stone beam based on his memory.
. He took a deep breath and tentatively stepped out with his right foot. He breathed a sigh of relief until he was sure to step on the stone beam, paused for a moment, and then took the second step.
One by one, everyone walked onto the stone beam. Although they all held torches in their hands, it was still pitch black under their feet, so everyone walked extremely carefully. However, as a result, the walking speed became extremely slow. After passing half the pillar,
After a long time, I walked more than three feet away.
At this time, Situ Qiao had already passed the middle point of the stone beam, and was only two feet away from the stone arch bridge. Li Qiufeng, who was walking at the back, had just stepped onto the stone beam, barely taking two or three steps.
Everyone lined up in a line and walked slowly on the stone beam.
At this moment, two sharp sounds suddenly came from the stone arch bridge opposite the stone beam. Then two "swish" sounds, and two points of cold light shot from the top of the stone arch bridge to the stone beam.
This sudden incident made everyone's hearts tremble. The two points of cold light were directed towards Situ Qiao, who was walking in the front. He said "Ouch" and hurriedly leaned down. The two points of cold light almost flew over his head.
He went over and attacked Liu Yong who was following him.
By the light of the torch in his hand, Liu Yong could see clearly that what was flying towards him were two short arrows. He recognized the short arrows that were shot by the mechanism on the bridge railing that everyone had seen before in front of the stone arch bridge, and his heart trembled, knowing that the stone arch bridge
There was an enemy hiding on the ground, so he picked up the short arrows that fell on the ground and used them as hidden weapons to sneak attack on his group. In the flash of lightning, he could avoid these two short arrows like Situ Qiao. But in this way, with
Chu Danyang behind him was completely defenseless, fearing that he would be injured by the short arrows. At this time, Liu Yong could no longer think too much, and saw him draw his sword with his backhand, and with two "ding ding" sounds, the two short arrows had been hit by
He knocked away with his long sword and fell into the bottomless abyss.
Just as Liu Yong knocked the short arrow away, he heard several more sharp sounds, but four short arrows flew over at the same time.
Situ Qiao cursed in his mouth and did not dare to stand up, squatting on the stone beam. The four short arrows flew over his head and attacked Liu Yong. Liu Yong waved his long sword and hit the four short arrows.
Flying. It's just that he just shot down the short arrow, and then four more short arrows flew over.
Liu Yong knew that the enemy was hiding at the top of the stone arch bridge. With the light of everyone's torches, he could see their positions clearly. While waving his long sword to block the short arrows, he shouted loudly: "Everyone, put out the torches quickly to avoid being exposed."
The position is taken advantage of by the enemy."
Situ Qiao was already lying on the stone beam. When he heard Liu Yong shouting, he turned the torch upside down in desperation and pushed his head towards the flames. He only heard the sound of "chichi", and then there was a sharp pain in the top of his head.
He also smelled a burning smell in his nose, thinking that his hair had been ignited by the torch. He rubbed his head against the stone beam a few times, and then extinguished the flames on his hair. Although he was very embarrassed, he finally managed to get rid of the torch.
It went out.
