Chapter 58 Six-person deadlock
The blood was dark red, and the eyes of the three heads were wide open. They looked very frightened. It seemed that they had seen something incredible before they died.
There is only a head on the bronze tripod, and there is no body in sight. This is not a murder scene.
"The blood has solidified, and there is a peculiar smell on the head. He has been dead for a while. His lips are blue and purple, and there are traces of blood on his seven orifices. He must have been poisoned before his death."
"The wound shows no signs of healing. The person was killed first, then the head was cut off, brought up and placed here."
Liu Huang stepped forward, circled around the head, then picked up a human head as if no one else was watching, and took a closer look at the wound.
Zhou Zhao and Liu Huang agreed. She nodded and continued:
"The murderer should be the same person, and the cutting method is the same. The three people have similar faces and should be blood relatives. If they are the owners here, they may have been exterminated by this situation."
Zhou Zhao said, turning around and looking at Xu Qifang, who was the last one to enter.
Her scorpion whip hung on her chest, and the long green whip was already in her hand. She stared at the head in Liu Huang's hand, frowned and said, "The mission continues, everyone should be at your best. Since The blood has dried, and the murderer has most likely left.”
"Don't forget, we are not here to kill people, but to get things. As long as the things are still there, it will save trouble if someone does it for us."
Xu Qifang said, looking at the Confucian scholar who fell on the ground with disgust, "What's wrong with you? Have you never killed anyone? You are still afraid of corpses."
The Confucian scholar didn't look at her, but stared at Liu Huang, who was holding his head up for close observation. His pale and green face looked like a corpse that had been dead for several days. The head was not scary, but holding the corpse felt like holding someone in his arms. A big living person who is as beautiful as a beauty is very scary.
Zhou Zhao raised his eyebrows when he heard this, but did not refute Xu Qifang's order. Although the others had different expressions, they remained silent like Zhou Zhao.
Seeing that the Confucian scholar was still motionless, the tiger-tooth boy stuck out his tongue, stepped forward to help him up, and patted his arm comfortingly.
"Then keep going, everyone, watch my steps and try not to trigger the mechanism."
Xu Qifang said, jumped lightly, and galloped forward.
She was like a nimble cat, hopping left and right, with extremely complicated steps.
Zhou Zhao waved to Liu Huang, indicating that he should go first, and he followed behind. Liu Huang followed with a swaying manner, as if he was drunk.
The smell of blood was getting stronger and stronger, so strong that Zhou Zhao felt as if he was being soaked in a pool of blood. It was obviously the summer of July, but this house made people feel cold all over.
Suddenly, Zhou Zhao turned his head sharply and looked to the west. At the end of the long corridor, there was also a bronze tripod, with three neat heads resting on the tripod. Because her back was turned, she could only see the deceased's black hair that almost blended into the night.
Zhou Zhao pursed his lips and stopped.
There were waves of exclamations behind her. She slowly withdrew her sight and looked forward. She saw twelve headless corpses lying around in the open martial arts field, their hands and feet twisted. It became a weird posture, just spread out like pickles in a dustpan ready to be dried.
The smell of blood mixed with the smell of corpses hit his face, making people feel nauseous.
"This...the murderer is too cruel, it is really a tragedy of annihilation..."
The Huya boy couldn't bear to turn his head away and looked around the martial arts arena.
On the north and south sides of the martial arts arena, there were three large stone pillars on each side. He remembered what Xu Qifang said in the cave before, and his attention was suddenly diverted, "Sister Xu, you said that the six pillars should be triggered at the same time. The mechanism, shouldn’t it be these six big pillars?”
"That's right, each of you choose one. There will be a pattern on the pillar that is out of tune with the rest of the place. You can see it if you look closely. Tell me when you find it, and then watch my gestures and press them together. I will go to the center of the martial arts field. ! ”
Xu Qifang said, and jumped up, like a crane spreading its wings, and landed gracefully in the center of the martial arts field. Zhou Zhao gave Liu Huang a look, and the two chose the two stone pillars on the left side of the south. Seeing this, the tiger-tooth boy cleverly grabbed the pillar on Zhou Zhao's right side.
He took out a fire stick from his arms, blew it brighter, looked at the big stone pillar, and exclaimed, "I found it! There is a place as big as a palm, and the patterns are the same as those on the side. It’s different, like it’s been chopped off!”
He said, turning to look at Zhou Zhao with a smile, "Do you want to borrow my fire certificate?"
Zhou Zhao shook his head, "No, I've found it."
After a while, others also found it. The Confucian scholar calmed down and couldn't help but said, "This task is so easy. We have done almost nothing. Do we still have a chance to enter the Seventh Hall?"
Without waiting for anyone to answer, Xu Qifang's voice sounded again, "When I count to three, I will raise my hands and everyone will press them together. You must be careful. I led everyone to avoid the mechanism in front, but after pressing this one, there will be What kind of crisis, I don’t know.”
"One, two, three!"
There was only a click, and everyone stared intently at the center of the martial arts arena. At Xu Qifang's feet, the seventh stone pillar rose up at some unknown time.
"It's done..." The Confucian scholar standing on the stone pillar opposite Zhou Zhao shouted happily. Before he could say the third word, he let out a sharp scream. Everyone looked towards the other side, and their pupils couldn't help but sharpen. shrunk.
I saw that the Confucian scholar's hand pressing against the stone wall instantly burst into flames, and his whole body was on fire.

Immediately afterwards, screams came one after another. The girl in red on his left was directly pierced by a sharp iron thorn protruding from the ground, while the person on his right had turned green all over without knowing it, and the blood from her seven orifices had obviously stopped. Death from poison.
The tiger-tooth boy was strangled by a rope and hung on the stone pillar. His feet were struggling desperately, and his face was turning purple. Zhou Zhao moved his wrist, and two coffin nails were shot out instantly, heading towards Flying in different directions.
The stone pillar in the center of the north had collapsed, hitting Liu Huang hard. His bamboo hat fell to the ground, revealing a face that was paler than a dead ghost. The weight of the stone pillar bent his waist. Although Liu Huang used his arms to hold it up, his body became lower and lower, and it was obvious that he would be crushed into a pulp in a short time.
Xu Qifang put her hands behind her back, and her eyes finally fell on the stone pillar where Zhou Zhao was standing. A huge pothole had appeared where she had been standing.
Apparently Zhou Zhao had already fallen in and was turned into a hedgehog. Xu Qifang looked at it and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"Hey! Just press it if you say it. I'm going to lose face!"
Zhou Zhao said, looking at Liu Huang dissatisfied, "Ah Huang! Didn't I tell you not to press it?"
Liu Huang said in a muffled voice, "I wanted to see where the fatal wound was on the corpse on the ground, but I was so absorbed that I accidentally touched it!"
Xu Qifang's face changed drastically. She felt the cool air blowing from Zhou Zhao behind her. She was instantly excited and her scalp was numb. She wanted to turn around, but she only felt a tightening around her neck. Zhou Zhao's hands were wrapped around her from behind. , a green dagger was pressed directly into her throat.
Zhou Zhao's martial arts was far stronger than she expected!
"Your brother is about to be smashed into a pulp. Let me go. I know how to break the mechanism and save him!"
Hearing her words, the tiger-tooth boy who had already started to roll his eyes started to struggle!
"Hmm..."
Zhou Zhao clicked his tongue twice and said helplessly, "Ah Huang, don't try it! The kid next to you is going to be hanged!"
Liu Huang said "Oh" and stood up straight in an instant. His almost unbearable look disappeared instantly. He stretched out his hand and pushed it gently, as if pushing a piece of bamboo, and turned the piece that was originally facing him. The big stone pillar that collapsed here was pushed towards the tiger-toothed boy next to him.
