Chapter 0853: Hunter and Prey, Jiugong Bagua Psychedelic Array
Hearing Liu Shiba's question, Jing Se turned around as he answered. Unexpectedly, when he looked back, he found that there was nothing but darkness behind him...
Where are the shadows of Qin Da, Du Lan, Huang Zhong and those fifteen soldiers?
"What's going on? Are you falling behind?"
Jing Se held his chin and was stunned for a moment, standing in the middle of the corridor, a little at a loss.
His own strength is indeed good, but it is limited to the military formations and witchcraft inheritance passed down by his family. He still knows nothing about Feng Shui formations that are beyond his own understanding.
"What's going on?"
Jingse asked again and looked at the silent Hanbao Laojiu.
Lao Jiu looked at Jing Se with a gloomy face and said:
"I don't know, I just follow the master."
After saying that, Lao Jiu turned around and walked towards Liu Shiba, following closely behind him.
Liu Shiba frowned, gently put the metal rod back into the dimensional space, put a black engineer shovel in his hand, and said with a thought:
"Reincarnation! Kill those shadows, select ten more powerful ones, and release them..."
In the dark corridor, there was a faint sound of wind that could not be detected...
Liu Shiba quietly observed Jing Se and Hanbao Laojiu...
With a vague perception, Jingse subconsciously looked up and found nothing unusual.
He stretched out his hand and touched his forehead and found that the Sky Eye Talisman after dotting his forehead had long since expired.
Except for Liu Shiba, the shadows floating in front and behind the three of them could no longer be seen with the naked eye.
At this time, Jing Se was not as calm as the young Liu Shiba, and he was so nervous that his forehead was covered with sweat.
To use a more vivid metaphor, Jing Se is a typical example of talking on paper. His family background is his strong foundation, but practice is the continuation of his strength...
It just so happened that Jing Se, who was of the powerful Houqing bloodline, rarely walked around on weekdays. In addition, it was the first time that he followed Liu Shiba deep into the underground tomb, so it was inevitable to be nervous.
This situation was the same as when Liu Shiba went deep into the ancient tomb for the first time.
In the darkness, Jing Qiu finally felt the strangeness of the ancient tomb after Qin Da, Du Lan, Huang Zhong and fifteen soldiers disappeared, and he had the urge to escape from here immediately.
The weak flashlight light reflected Liu Shiba's resolute profile!
Jing Se watched silently, Liu Shiba and Lao Hei walking in the front, and sighed secretly!
As expected, every one of the gang of tomb robbers in the Old Liu family is not a mortal.
The dog raised by the old Liu family is also extraordinary, with golden eyes that are full of fierce light, and a pair of dog eyebrows on the golden eyes, exuding an unparalleled and domineering golden light...
"Don't panic, as I said before, this underground tunnel is an extremely clever maze.
If your guess is correct, Dulan who was following you may have taken a wrong step and turned to another hidden fork in the road. The people behind you didn't know, so they followed...
Although I am not as scholarly and sophisticated as my grandfather, I know that the more times like this, the more calm we must be."
Liu Shiba turned his head and glanced at Jing Se, comforting him with a smile.
"What kind of formation is this? Is it impossible to break it?"
Jing Se felt nervous and Liu Shiba saw through it. He blushed and asked.
"The authorities are obsessed with the beholder, and I don't know the specific formation. Let's take it one step at a time.
But I am certain that Qin Da and Du Lan are very close to us, so close that we cannot even notice their existence."
While Liu Shiba responded to Jingse, he squatted down and gently shoveled a lump on the wall of the corridor with an engineering shovel.
Putting the shoveled lump of earthy stuff to the tip of his nose and sniffing it for a few times, Liu Shiba raised his head solemnly and added:
"Dulan said before that the wall had changed color, but I didn't notice it, but now I understand.
Because I used to do measurements on construction sites, I know some special materials, but the wall we are in now actually contains sound-insulating paint, which is unbelievable."
Jing Se looked at Liu Shiba blankly and said strangely:
"The Tang Dynasty had soundproofing paint, can you believe it..."
Liu Shiba waved his engineering shovel, stood up lightly, and said to Lao Jiu, who was silent in black:
"Laojiu Palace Queen, you must be careful."
After saying that, Liu Shiba looked at Jing Se, handed him the engineering shovel in his hand, and chuckled:
"We don't have many engineering shovels like this in Baofeng. They are made of black metal. You can use one and put away the crutches."
Hearing this, Jing Se tightened the black staff in his hand and said angrily:
"No shovel! I'm used to using my own weapon."
Liu Shiba was too lazy to explain and added:
"It's up to you! I hope your staff can help you escape when you fall into pits and quicksand caves."
Finally, Jingse grabbed the engineer's shovel and hugged him tightly, saying:
"Did you tell me earlier..."
…………
Liu Shiba, Jing Se, Lao Jiu, Lao Hei, three people and one dog continued to move forward in the dark corridor.
Liu Shiba squatted down from time to time and left marks on the corners he passed. Lao Hei informed Liu Shiba of the other smells he discovered.
After about two or three hours of measurement and evaluation, comparing Liu Shiba's own drawings with what he had learned in the past, and then comparing the notes left by his grandfather, Liu Shiba finally understood what kind of formation this was.
On the surface, this is just a simple Nine Palaces and Bagua array, but the subtleties are different.
The palace gate and the main gate of the Nine Palaces correspond to the gate of death in the Bagua. In this way, life is death, death is life, and there is an infinite return of life, death, and death.
No matter how you turn, no matter how slow or fast your steps are, this weird Nine Palaces and Bagua array is always changing slowly.
Maybe a few breaths ago, the position you were standing in was different from the previous moment.
"Hmph! This place is really interesting. In addition to ordinary formations, there are also magic formations.
A few hours ago, when we discovered that Qin Da and others disappeared behind us, they might have been not far behind us.
It's just that some small magic arrays and soundproof materials have blocked most of the sound waves and light, so even if we are close together, we can't find each other."
Standing up, Liu Shiba shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Eighteen, don't you have any sense at all? By the way, you ingested all the poisonous insects in those soldiers, so it's normal to lose your sense of them."
In the darkness, Jing Se followed closely behind Liu Shiba, and couldn't help but interrupt and ask.
Liu Shiba turned to look at Jing Se and said with a strange smile:
"Who says I don't have feelings? I know where they are better than anyone else.
Don’t forget that besides Du Lan and the fifteen soldiers, Huang Zhong and Qin Da still have poisonous insects in their bodies, and they are silver-white high-grade poisonous insects."
Jingse grinned and said:
"Then what are you writing about? Find them quickly, why don't we act together? The safety factor will be higher."
Liu Shiba shook his head and said:
"Don't panic! Here and now, except for the hunter, there is the prey, plus the masters who built and designed this tomb thousands of years ago.
I want to see who designed and built this tomb, and I want to see what kind of trouble the Fifth Army encountered and looked so embarrassed."
Having said this, Liu Shiba straightened his back very calmly, looked into the depths of the dark corridor, and added with a smile:
"Also! I want to see who the leader of the fifth unit who has always known our team well is?
Ning Haidong's order to the fifth unit must be to kill me.
That big brother who takes the lead is most likely in our team, and he is right next to me...
He has countless opportunities to attack me, but! Why has he remained unmoved and tolerated it until now? "
Jing Se listened quietly to Liu Shiba's explanation, the expression on his face became more and more exciting, and after a long time he gritted his teeth and said:
"You must not tell me that Qin Da, Huang Zhong, Dulan and the dozen or so others were thrown away intentionally by you?"
Liu Shiba grinned, looked back at Jing Se and smiled mysteriously:
"Congratulations, Mr. Jing, perfect score for the correct answer."
