Chapter 278 Oops, I stepped on a mechanism

After making sure that he had landed safely, Fang Xiaocao slowly opened his eyes. Taotie’s playful and ugly face came into Fang Xiaocao’s eyes, and Fang Xiaocao Later, I realized that the smelly embrace that caught him belonged to none other than Taotie.

Fang Xiaocao glared at Taotie, jumped out of Taotie's arms, and turned to look for the hummingbird.

Fang Xiaocao did not forget that just now in the air, the hummingbird suddenly let go of itself.

Fang Xiaocao was frightened at that moment.

Fang Xiaocao thought it was the hummingbird that fell.

However, fortunately, when Fang Xiaocao turned around, he saw the hummingbird, standing beside him in a pretty way.

All beards and tails, unscathed.

“Huh~”

Fang Xiaocao let out a breath.

Just be fine!

If the hummingbird fell into the quicksand pit and died here because he helped her cross the quicksand pit, Fang Xiaocao would die of guilt.

Tom on the other side was nervous the whole time. Now that the square grass and the hummingbird have landed safely, Tom also breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's good to be safe!"

Tom muttered, and without waiting for Taotie, he threw back the rope of the flying claws, picked up the set of flying claws from the grass above the ground, and pressed Press the button and shoot the flying claw.

The flying claw firmly grasped the beam of the tomb passage with a clang, and tugged hard. After making sure it was firm enough, he took a few steps, jumped up, and flew to the other side while swinging the rope of the flying claw.

Taotie and Tom, each holding a rope.

Pressing the button in his hand, he only heard a "click" sound. The flying claws that were originally holding the two people down, both of which were very strong, were automatically released in an instant, and returned to the two of them with a "swish" sound. in hand.

Taotie and Tom put away their flying claws.

Stuffed into backpack.

Seeing this scene, Fang Xiaocao blinked.

Curiosity asked: "What are you doing with the flying claws?"

"Shouldn't we use it?"

Hearing Fang Xiaocao's words, Tom smiled slightly.

“Of course we have to put it away.”

"First, you may still need to use the Flying Claw on the road ahead. If you don't use it here, what if you still need to use it?"

"Secondly, when entering ancient tombs, there is rarely the original route. If you return, it will be useless if you stay here.”

"Third, there may be pursuers behind us. If the pursuers come, if they see the flying claws, they will know that there is something strange in the quicksand pit, so follow the flying claws and come here."

Tom said deliberately It's very straightforward, just to increase Fang Xiaocao's knowledge.

After listening to Tom’s words, Fang Xiaocao nodded thoughtfully: “I understand!”

After packing up the flying claws, Fang Xiaocao and the others continued to move forward. With the experience of the quicksand trap, Fang Xiaocao and the others also understood that the owner of the tomb was not as kind as they thought, and was an old yin critic.

Harming people, one after another.

The design of the quicksand pit was extremely cunning, with iron thorns and blades sprinkled in it, making the incoming tomb robbers think it was a trap.

If someone is fooled and chooses to ignore the iron thorns and blades and walk directly over, then...

How many people will die.

Even a knowledgeable tomb robber can be fooled and fall into a pit of quicksand if he is confused for a moment.

It can be said that as long as the tomb robbers are not careful enough, as many as they come will die in this quicksand trap.

Can someone who can lay out such a sinister trap be a kind person?

The answer is obviously, no!

So, Fang Xiaocao and the other two became more careful.

Tom still leads the way, with Fang Xiaocao walking in the middle. Taotie and Hummingbird are responsible for cutting off the rear and protecting Fang Xiaocao, and are ready to rescue Fang Xiaocao at any time.

On the stone walls on both sides of this section of the tomb passage, there are still those lamps, and there is also shark oil in the lamps.

This time, Fang Xiaocao did not dare to move.

Since knowing the horror of quicksand pits, Fang Xiaocao felt that there must be something wrong with these shark lamp oils.

Perhaps just as Tom worried, there must be something weird hidden in these shark lamp oils. It's either poison or intoxicating drugs.

If it weren’t for the lamp being connected to some mechanism.

Once someone is greedy, or is curious about the shark lamp oil like Fang Xiaocao, and touches the lamp or lights the lamp, it will lead to death.

Thinking of this, Fang Xiaocao no longer had any curiosity about these lamps and the shark oil in them.

I chose it directly and stayed away.

He even gave up his plan to bring some shark oil and go back to study.

She is so beautiful that she cannot die.

Suddenly!

Tom, who was walking in front, froze in place.

Next second!

There was a "click" sound under Tom's feet, and a stone slab under Tom's feet sunk a few centimeters visibly.

Seeing this scene, Fang Xiaocao was shocked.

She knew that Tom had stepped on a trap.

The anti-theft mechanism in the ancient tomb.

Fang Xiaocao's eyes quickly scanned the top of his head and the stone walls on both sides of the tomb passage, fearing that there would be some arrow holes, some flying stone giant axe, or some deadly hidden weapon.

The Taotie and Hummingbird on the side were also shocked.

With very quick movements, Hummingbird flashed in front of Fang Xiaocao and protected Fang Xiaocao behind him. He held the dagger in his hand and scanned the surroundings with vigilant eyes.

Taotie quickly rushed to Tom's side.

"Old Tom, don't move!"

"Let me see what mechanism it is!"

Taotie shouted anxiously.

As he said that, he squatted at Tom's feet and stared at Tom's feet carefully with his tiger eyes.

Among the four Fang Xiaocao, Taotie went to the tomb.

I also studied with an old tomb robber for a while.

Among the four people, he is the one who knows the mechanism of the ancient tomb the best. The others are really not as knowledgeable as Taotie.

As Taotie began to check, Fang Xiaocao and the other three subconsciously held their breath, fearing that their breathing would be too loud and affect Taotie's judgment.

Tom, who was stepping on the mechanism, had a handsome face that turned pale. If it was a landmine or something, Tom wouldn't be afraid, because he just plays with those things and knows everything about them.

Even if he stepped on it, Tom was confident enough to defuse the mine under his feet.

But this is the first time Tom has encountered the anti-theft mechanism in the ancient tomb. He has no idea what terrible mechanism it will trigger. Human beings have awe and fear for unknown things.

Although Tom is a top killer, he is also a human being, and it is normal to be afraid.

This does not mean that Tom is timid.

It’s just an instinctive physiological reaction of human beings.

Tom: Call me timid, but I won’t accept it!

Whoever says I am timid can say no more to me than whoever walks around in a minefield full of landmines and comes back alive.

“It’s a bit troublesome!”

Taotie said with a serious expression.

Hearing Taotie's words, the hearts of Fang Xiaocao and the other two people lifted up at the same time. Three pairs of eyes were all focused on Taotie, waiting for Taotie's next words.

But Taotie just frowned and squatted at Tom's feet without saying a word.

This made Fang Xiaocao anxious.

But he didn’t dare to speak up to urge Taotie, for fear of affecting Taotie. After all, Taotie’s judgment was related to Tom’s life.

At Baozi's request, the author worked hard and added more~
