The lair of the Qilin Society was buried by the collapsing mountain in a violent explosion. There were more than 2,000 imperial nets and troops led by Tian Meng. Except for the 30% who were stationed outside at the beginning, there were no remaining 70% of the troops who participated in the attack.
one.
Tian Meng had already woken up. He briefly understood what had happened and stood up despite his injuries.
The uninjured soldiers outside were clearing the rubble in an orderly manner, trying their best to rescue their comrades who were buried and trapped under the rubble. Although it goes without saying that when a building collapses or a mountain collapses like that, the probability of survival is extremely low.
Bang ~ boom ~
Suddenly, a huge broken beam flew out of the ruins, and a terrifying scarlet and turbid sword energy rushed into the sky.
"This kind of sword energy is the Suiyang Sword, and Master Sect is still alive."
"Someone come quickly~"
"This way, this way!"
"Ah~ this is?!"
The sword energy of Suiyang Sword attracted a wave of people, and they rushed over quickly, trying to save people, but unexpectedly discovered that Men himself was not in danger of life.
A box about three feet long and wide appeared in front of everyone. It was completely iron-blue. In such a terrible explosion and collapse, this box was almost intact.
Thanks to this box, Men had room to survive. When the bustling sounds outside penetrated in, he immediately used all his skills and used a huge slash.
When the light from the outside shone in, he knew he was saved. The big sword in his hand fell to the ground with a "bang", and the jaws of the sword had already cracked due to the grip of the sword handle with both hands.
"Ahem, cough, cough, it seems that I am not bad luck."
"Master Men!"
"Quickly, dig up here, from this side."
Men was successfully rescued and was carried on a stretcher, ready to be sent for treatment.
"Master Men, your sword." A Snare Killer held the Suiyang Sword and placed it next to Men's hand.
"Wait a minute, please go ahead and ask someone to carefully inspect that strange box."
"Uh, yes, sir."
Tian Meng took a deep look at the door that was being carried away, and then his eyes fell on the strange box.
What kind of material can keep this box in such good condition? It is very likely that there are important things in the Qilin Society, and they didn't have time to be transported away.
Tian Meng walked to the left, looked around, and pointed with his hand: "You, you, you, search the ruins carefully."
"Yes, Lord Tian Meng."
"Ah, there are people here!"
Sure enough, soldiers soon shouted loudly near the ruins where the box was found.
"Someone come quickly and lift this place up."
"Come on, one or two together~one or two together~"
"This is the body of the Qilin Society."
"I also found Qilin Hui's body here."
"There are some here too."
One after another, soldiers discovered mutilated corpses belonging to the Qilin Society, and later found the corpses of Luowang killing masters. Such a high density of deaths in the same ruins showed that there had been fierce fighting here before the explosion.
Only the corpses of the Qilin Society excavated nearby far outnumbered Luo Net. It seems that Luo Net won the battle here, so there was such an important box left behind.
Li Jing rushed to the scene panting, unkempt, and the black clothes that represented the image of a snare were dyed earth-colored by mud.
"The Qilin Society is so treacherous that they would not hesitate to blow up their nest and bury me with them. This time the seven of us go back and we will definitely be punished by the Prime Minister."
"Huh?" Tian Meng was stunned when he heard this. I'm waiting for seven people, doesn't this mean...
At that time, Li Jing realized that something was wrong and used his own emergency flare. In order to maximize the effect of Nong Yu and Kuang Xiu's piano sounds, the Qilin Society left sound transmission channels inside the base. The sound of Tianzi Yiyi's unique flare passed through these.
channel spreads out.
Everyone can do a great job in the net, and suddenly discover the retreat signal of their colleagues. Unless their heads are burning, how can they calmly think about why someone would send a retreat signal during wartime.
Li Jing's actions saved the Seven Fierce Swords. After being reminded, the other people also discovered that something was strange and evacuated in time to avoid being buried.
Of course, there was an exception - Shu Ming Sword. Bian Sheng and Jie Sha were furious at the time. It wasn't until Jie gave up the fight and ran away that he realized that the Qilin would move abnormally.
Fortunately among the misfortunes, although this guy was seriously injured and lost the physical strength to save himself, he was dug out by Li Jing's men without being buried alive for long. He has been sent to the hospital for treatment, and he probably won't die.
Tian Meng listened to Li Jing briefly describe the process before the explosion, and suddenly held Li Jing's shoulders, looking excited, "I feel guilty. If you hadn't judged correctly and acted decisively, I'm afraid the survivors of the trap would not be as good as they are now."
quantity."
"Um, Lord Tian Meng, what are you..."
"Report~Two adults, take a look!"
The voice came from the soldier responsible for checking the strange box. Li Jing got rid of Tian Meng and walked over quickly, "What's wrong? I found something."
"Two adults, please take a look. I have never seen this thing before." The soldier stepped aside and pointed to the center line of the box.
"It feels familiar. This is..." Li Jing leaned down and looked at it thoughtfully.
"This style is a Jiazi lock." Tian Meng walked closer, stretched out his hand and gently wiped the dust on the box, his expression serious.
Li Jing asked: "Jia Zisuo, what is that?"
"As the name suggests, it is a special kind of lock. The origin of the name Jiazi is unclear. Some say it comes from ancient times, while others say it comes from the Book of Changes."
Tian Meng blew away the dust on the lock, and after taking a closer look, his thick eyebrows furrowed, "There is a Jiazi lock in the farmhouse, and the key to deciphering it lies in the calendar and seasons. This Jiazi lock should be from the master of the Mohist class.
hand, the key to deciphering it is unknown."
"Tricky?"
"That's right. There may be tens of millions of Jiazi locks arranged, and it is impossible to solve them without knowing anything about them. Although there are some people from the Mohist family in the empire, they are far inferior to Master Ban in terms of mechanical skills."
Li Jing stood up and shook his head at the box, "It's troublesome. I don't know what's inside, and I don't dare to use violence to destroy it."
"Well, let's seal it up first." Tian Meng waved his hand and summoned someone and said, "Report this matter to the Prime Minister quickly and ask him to write to Gongshu Qiu and Master Xu. If even these two people can't decrypt it, we will consider using violence to decrypt it."
Open it."
"Yes." After receiving the order, the subordinate immediately went to select horses and prepare to set off.
Tian Meng stood there and looked around. After being silent for a while, he gave the order: "Everyone is divided into four batches. They will work non-stop for twelve hours, day and night, and dig three feet into the ground. No information can be missed."
You can't be wrong. With the strength that Qilin will show in this battle, if we hold on with all our strength, it is impossible for the two thousand or so people like me to capture their lair. Nong Yu is by no means a short-witted person, and he will win if he can
They would rather destroy the base in the fight against the enemy. There must be something fishy about it. What is hidden in the Mo Family Jiazi Lock?
