Chapter 411 The Lord, Dead (6)(1/2)
After Chen Baiqi accepted the mission, a human-high portal opened out of thin air on the ground in front of him. The door was rectangular in shape, with gorgeous gold-plated edges and a dazzling blue light shining inside.
She swallowed and looked inside the door, but she couldn't see anything. The inside was like a blue swirling black hole without any concrete scenery.
Will he disappear if he walks in? Chen Baiqi, who has never tried the "portal" function, is a little worried.
After hesitating for a moment, Chen Baiqi tentatively stepped in with one foot, only to see the person being sucked in without warning in the next second.
In a dizzying spin, her consciousness was extracted, and all the pictures in front of her were stagnant. She watched the transfer bar under the system interface fill up bit by bit. The next second, she suddenly opened her eyes, and people were already there.
Standing firmly in a strange place.
The temperature in this place was extremely low, like a cool air that penetrated directly from the soles of her feet into her limbs and bones. She couldn't help but shiver.
This should be a tunnel, with dark and narrow surroundings, a stone path with water channels on both sides, and shallow and rapid water flowing.
This semicircular tunnel made of stones is very shady, empty and quiet. Even the sound of kicking a stone can be heard far and loud. The wall near the water is covered with green thorns, which can also be seen on the top.
There are some patches of black stains, and it seems that this tunnel has a long history.
As soon as she reached the teleportation point, Chen Baiqi heard the sound of fighting not far away. She followed the sound and walked forward quickly. When she turned a corner, she saw the figure of Brother Gou Sheng.
He was in a bad state. He had been hit by several arrows, and the clothes on his chest were stained red with blood, but his face didn't change much, as if he was wearing a fake face. Only his lips were white, and his left hand was covered in blood.
Bound with a chain, his movements were restricted and he could only dodge within a certain range. He could only block the arrows shot from the mechanism in the wall by swinging his sword with one hand.
Seeing that he blocked the arrow from the barrel hole in front, but could not avoid a fast arrow from the right, she quickly took out a large shield from the "system package". This large shield was a system reward, but she had never used it.
, but because the recovery price in the system mall was also low, she didn't sell it for money, but now it comes in handy.
Name: Heavy Shield
Level:20
Equipment Requirements: Strength 47
Attributes: Physical defense 33, block rate 23%
She took out the heavy shield that was half a person's height with a clang. This heavy shield really lived up to its name of "heavy". She pressed her arms and her whole body against it, but she could barely hold it on without falling.
Chen Baiqi grimaced. After swallowing a bottle of "Hero Potion", she put it on her wrist and rushed to block "Brother Gou Sheng".
"Brother Gou Sheng" was naturally surprised. He was surprised when he saw someone else here. He was hit by another arrow in the thigh, but he was not stupid. The other person stepped forward with a heavy shield. He could naturally tell that the other person was
They came to save him, so the two of them squatted in the corner under the cover of the heavy shield, only listening to the sound of the arrows hitting the heavy shield, making a metallic impact.
With the "heavy shield" to block the arrows, the two of them huddled together. Brother "Gousheng" finally had time to take a breath. He was embarrassed by the underground mechanism. He turned his head to the side and licked the dryness.
lips, half grateful and half puzzled: "I wonder who this heroine is?"
Chen Baiqi had a heavy shield tied to her hand. Every arrow she shot and hit the shield made her arm numb. When she heard Brother Gou Sheng's question, she endured the painful feeling and said casually: "I am you."
sister."
Brother Gou Sheng was stunned for a moment, his face full of surprise, and he said: "But my sister doesn't look like this."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Baiqi spurted out a mouthful of blood.
Damn it, I was shocked and suffered internal injuries!
"Gou Sheng" brother's eyes widened and he thought, I was so seriously injured without vomiting blood, why did you vomit first?
Then he thought, this person is crazy for wanting to be my sister. He just questioned her and she became heartbroken and vomited blood. If he had objected directly just now, wouldn't she have died on the spot?!
He hurriedly said: "Don't be excited. If you say you are my sister, then you are my sister. If you save my life, I will consider you my god-sister from now on."
After hearing this, Chen Baiqi knew that he had misunderstood, and she calmly wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.
"I'm Mrs. Rong."
It took Brother Gou Sheng a long time to react: "...Sister-in-law Rong doesn't seem to be like this, right?" She is thin and dark, right?
"You're disguised, aren't you too?" Chen Baiqi squinted at him.
Seeing the calm and calm look in her eyes, brother "Gousheng" thought to himself, it seems that she has seen through my disguise a long time ago, and everyone is tacitly understanding it.
"You are much younger and prettier than before." He smiled.
Chen Baiqi said: "I have been honest with you, when will you take off your disguise and reveal your true face?"
"Gou Sheng" brother laughed: "It seems inappropriate to talk about this in such a crisis." He changed the subject dryly: "Where did you find such a tower shield? No, how did you get this imperial tomb?
Authentic?" He suddenly noticed the problem and looked surprised.
The entrance to the tunnel of the imperial mausoleum is very secret, and it cannot be opened without the special three-handled sun, moon, and star keys. Now that he has all three keys, how did she get in?
"The Imperial Tomb Tunnel here? Then what are you doing here? Is your mission related to the Imperial Tomb Tunnel?" Chen Baiqi asked back.
Brother Gou Sheng looked at her, and she looked at Brother Gou Sheng. From the look in each other's eyes, they understood that the other party obviously did not intend to answer their questions.
"You can't let me save you once in vain, right?" Chen Baiqi said dissatisfied.
This "dog leftover" brother is really cunning, and he keeps secret what he shouldn't reveal.
"Gou Sheng" the brother sighed, and supported the heavy shield with one hand to relieve her of part of the impact of the sharp weapon: "You shouldn't have come. I don't know if I can protect you for a while."
"What do you mean by this?"
Brother "Gou Sheng" saw that the attack of the traps had stopped, so he stood up with his shield: "There are hundreds of traps hidden in this tunnel, which is hard to guard against. I am seriously injured now, and I can't protect myself. Although I don't know how you used to enter."
We passed through the Imperial Tomb Tunnel and reached the middle section of the tunnel safely, but the road ahead will only become more difficult."
System: Main mission - authentic hero, help friendly troops reach their destination smoothly, accept/reject?
Mission reward: Portal*1/Concealment Pill*1/Disguise Pill*1 (choose one from three).
Portal: Select a teleport point in the downloaded "region map" to teleport to the destination. (Level: rare, one-time consumable)
Concealment pill: Taking this pill can disappear, dissolve when exposed to water, melt when exposed to smoke, and escape when exposed to soil. (Grade: rare, disposable consumable)
Disguise Pill: You can change your appearance at will, and it lasts for ten hours. (Grade: high-grade, one-time consumable)
The rewards for this mission were all special items, but these three were quite practical for Chen Baiqi, but in the end she could only choose one of the three, which made it difficult for her to make a choice.
Fish is what she wants, and bear paws are what she wants. If she can't have both, she takes... the portal.
After accepting the task, she responded to Brother Gou Sheng. She looked at him with a smile: "I can come here and I have my own support. How about you negotiate a deal with me?"
"Gousheng" brother looked at her twice and didn't agree at all. He only said: "What kind of deal is it?"
"I will help you clear the traps ahead and see you arrive safely. Then you tell me why you came to the Imperial Tomb Tunnel." Chen Baiqi said.
Brother "Gousheng" looked at her in surprise, as if he didn't believe she had such great ability, but he also felt that since she could stop talking nonsense, she couldn't just play with him.
His eyes were as bright as the sun, and he said seriously: "Why do you have to know this? I can tell you that this matter has nothing to do with your Qi State, and it has no harm to your Qi State. It is actually a private matter of our Wei State, and you don't need to get involved.
Come in."
"I guess this private matter is very important to Wei. Otherwise, at such a critical moment when the army is launching an attack, people like you will not be allowed to work in the army, but will be sent out to conduct detailed reconnaissance."
Brother Gou Sheng didn't reply for a long time. He just laughed and said, "I'm not an important person. You think highly of me."
Chen Baiqi didn't argue with him about the matter. Ordinary people didn't have the ability to sneak into the royal city without being noticed. Especially in the past few days, the royal city was even more heavily guarded. There was also a young master of the Yin family sitting in charge, and he
She could not believe that for such a wise and resourceful person who knew how to disguise himself and had superb martial arts skills, she could not believe that he was really an unknown person.
She said in a pyramid scheme tone: "You should also know your current situation. Even if you risk your life, you won't be able to get far. What do you think, do you want to trade with me?"
Brother Gou Sheng said, "Are you really the person who remonstrated with Chen Huanxian from Qi State?"
"nature."
He thought about it for a moment, a smile appeared on his face, and he said: "Okay, I'll tell you, I'm here to find someone."
Chen Baiqi immediately asked: "Who is it?"
"King Nanzhao."
Chen Baiqi was stunned and suspected that he had heard wrongly.
"King Nanzhao? Why is the leader of Nanzhao in the Royal City of Luoyang?"
Brother Gou Sheng pondered for a moment: "It's a long story."
Seeing how secretive he was, Chen Baiqi knew that he would not disclose any more details, so he guessed: "Is it related to the Wu clan?"
Brother Gou Sheng raised his eyes and was really surprised.
This sister-in-law is well-informed and even knows about such things!
"You tell me more, and I will crush this chain for you, and then give you some medicine." Chen Baiqi took out bottles and jars from his pocket, looked at him with bright eyes, waiting for his decision.
.
One of his hands is being restrained by an iron rope, and the other end is embedded in the wall. Pulling and pulling cannot be done now. His knife has curled up again, and it is even more careless. If he wants to escape, he must find a mechanism to automatically unlock it, or break it.
Survive by cutting off arms and tail.
Both of these are either dangerous or life-consuming, and neither is the best thing to do.
His difficulties are so obvious, and Chen Baiqi's taking advantage of him is also so obvious.
"Gousheng" brother's mouth twitched.
Very good, she has the style of a profiteer who makes money through misfortunes. Her Buddhist face that deceives the world is really blinded, but the inside is cut into black.
