Chapter 281 Tom’s self-rescue!
Tom took a deep breath, his eyes became determined, and he said: "No matter what, let's take a gamble. The longer time passes, the greater the loss of my physical strength. Taotie you and Hummingbird, take me with you. Her Royal Highness the Princess leaves and goes to find a safe place to wait in front. Me."
"If I die, you must protect Her Royal Highness and take her out of the tomb safely."
Taotie nodded: "Don't worry, I will do it!"
"Tom..."
Fang Xiaocao looked at Tom and opened her mouth to say something, but as soon as she opened her mouth, Tom glanced at Taotie. Taotie understood, nodded, and walked to Fang Xiaocao.
Next second!
Taotie hugged Fang Xiaocao fiercely, carried her on his shoulders, and strode forward along the tomb passage.
Seeing this scene, the hummingbird immediately followed.
“Yeah~”
"Taotie, let me go..."
Being carried by Taotie on his shoulders, Fang Xiaocao was ashamed and angry, and let out a series of exclamations.
“Your Highness Princess, just bear with it.”
Taotie ignored Fang Xiaocao’s struggle.
After struggling for a while, Taotie remained unmoved.
I can only give up the struggle.
I obediently let Taotie carry me away.
Watching Taotie carry Fang Xiaocao away.
Tom took a deep breath, took out the flying claw launcher that Taotie had just given him, and looked up at the beams above his head that supported the tomb passage.
Life or death is up to God.
Tom's backpack was still taken away by Hummingbird.
If he died here.
Then he won't be able to use the equipment in his backpack.
It is better to let Fang Xiaocao and the others take it away and get them an extra share of the guarantee of leaving the ancient tomb safely.
Tom took another deep breath.
After calming down, he pressed the flying claw launcher.
There was a soft sound of "whoosh".
The flying claw was ejected from the launcher.
There was a "clang" sound and sparks flew everywhere.
The flying claws firmly grasped the beam above the head.
With a "click", the flying claw locked.
Tom did not dare to pull the rope connecting the flying claws.
Tom was afraid of the beam above his head, which, as Taotie said, had been tampered with.
As soon as it withstands the falling force from below, it will collapse instantly. If the beam collapses, not only will he die, but Fang Xiaocao and the other three who have not reached a safe place will also be harmed by the activated mechanism. die.
Tom was waiting, waiting for Taotie and the others to reach a safe enough place to send him a signal.
That's when he took action.
This is also the time for him to gamble his life!
Taotie carried Fang Xiaocao and walked for ten meters. His speed began to slow down and his steps became cautious: "Hummingbird, from now on, you step on the floor tiles I stepped on. Don't Wandering around. "
The hummingbird nodded: "Okay!"
The hummingbird responded, staring at Taotie's footsteps. He followed Taotie's instructions step by step, stepping on the floor tiles that Taotie had stepped on. Walk.
Ten meters is still far enough.
The average pit is only this big at most.
No matter how big it is, construction will be too difficult.
Just digging such a big hole would have consumed a huge amount of manpower and material resources in ancient times.
Generally, this kind of pit is up to five meters long.
Ten meters is the longest pit the old tomb robber has ever seen.
Actually, Taotie did not think that the trap in this ancient tomb would be so big.
But for Fang Xiaocao’s safety, Taotie didn’t dare to take the risk and decided to follow the maximum record.
Taotie doesn’t feel safe even ten meters away.
Decided to carry Fang Xiaocao and take Hummingbird a little further to ensure a sufficient safe distance.
Taotie carried Fang Xiaocao and walked another ten meters.
A full twenty meters away.
Not to mention a general’s tomb.
Even the imperial tombs of a powerful dynasty would not be able to undertake such a large project just for a single institution.
Not worth it and unnecessary.
Not to mention twenty meters.
Ten meters is enough to make you crazy.
For this kind of mechanism, five meters is enough to kill people. How far can an ordinary person jump in the standing long jump?
The standing long jump world record is about three meters.
Standing long jump triple jump, a few ten meters.
That is still a full jump from a top athlete.
A top killer like Tom is only at this level.
It’s not too far away, no more than one meter.
But don’t forget!
There is also a trigger mechanism under Tom's feet.
If Tom jumps with all his strength.
The second when his legs exerted force and pressed the mechanism.
The ground beneath Tom's feet will begin to collapse.
At that moment, Tom had no leverage.
Jump five meters?
If he doesn’t fall directly, even if he reacts quickly.
So, five meters seems not far away.
But for top killers, there is also a gap.
Five meters is the distance to the gate of hell.
Isn’t ten meters crazy?
Twenty meters...
Not only is the project volume huge, it is also a waste of time and money.
Even a foolish king can't do it. He does this in his own tomb for a single mechanism.
The faint king is still like this...
What's more, a general?
Without Fang Xiaocao, Taotie can only walk ten meters at most.
An extra meter is disrespectful to Hunjun.
Taotie put Xiaocao down below: "Your Highness, please don't move. There may be agencies nearby."
After hearing Taotie's words, Fang Xiaocao, who originally wanted to move his hands and feet, He immediately froze in place, obediently not daring to move.
"Hummingbird, send a signal to Tom."
Taotie said to Hummingbird.
“Okay!”
The hummingbird nodded and responded.
Hummingbird pulled out his gun and fired at the depths of the tomb passage ahead.
There was a "bang" gunshot.
Fang Xiaocao was shaken, and his ears were buzzing.
In the wide area, the sound of gunfire was very loud.
Not to mention in such a small space.
After one shot, Hummingbird put away the gun.
Three people, three pairs of eyes, all pricked up their ears, waiting for the sound of Tom taking action and the ground beginning to collapse.
Taotie and the others can’t see Tom here.
Because this tomb passage seems to be straight.
In fact, it is a visual illusion. When designing the tomb passage, the designer secretly made some tricks to make people walking in the tomb passage take detours without knowing it.
The other side!
A loud gunshot was heard from ahead.
Tom took a deep breath and let it out again.
Grabbing the rope of Flying Claw with his hands, Tom gritted his teeth and pulled hard.
The beam did not collapse!
Tom was overjoyed!
The first fatal point was safely passed.
"Hahaha..."
"A good start, a good sign!"
Tom beamed with joy and laughed.
Maintaining an awkward standing posture, Tom felt that his legs were starting to get sore.
If he stayed a little longer, he couldn't hold on any longer.
Tom immediately sprang into action.
Tom quickly put the rope of the flying claw through the buckle of his tactical belt, locked the buckle, and pressed the button on the flying claw launcher to tighten the rope.
As the flying claw rope was jumped straight, Tom took a few deep breaths to adjust his mentality.
Next second!
Grab the flying claw rope and lift your feet off the ground.
There was a "click", and the floor tiles stepped on by Tom rebounded fiercely...
