Chapter 173 Trapped (Trapped)
Who is it!
Fang Mengyao frowned more and more, and her expression became more and more ugly. She didn't expect that someone would come here!
Could it be that her movements were too loud and alarmed others?
Fang Mengyao was shocked and confused. She hesitated whether to find a place to hide. Then she heard footsteps getting closer, and from the sound, they were coming in this direction!
She no longer hesitated, gritted her teeth, exchanged for a five-minute invisibility pill, and swallowed it.
She must not let anyone else know that she came to the Fang family this time!
After swallowing the pill, she turned on the invisibility effect, but this invisibility effect can only last for five minutes. After five minutes, it will expire and others will be able to see her.
After turning on the invisibility effect, Fang Mengyao breathed a sigh of relief. Then she suddenly realized that she had relaxed too early! She was now trapped in a strange formation, surrounded by nothing, nothing, nothing could be seen, what should she do?
Unfortunately, she didn't have time to think about it, because the footsteps were getting closer and closer. Judging from the sound, there were ten people in total.
Then, she heard someone talking.
A man said in panic: "What happened? Why is the door open? Did someone get in first?"
Then a relatively calm voice came out, and the speaker was still a man: "Don't be impatient! Take a closer look first!"
This is another person: "Boss, look! There is a lock here, it has been burned."
The one who spoke this time was the calmer man from before. He should be the leader. He said, "This mark... is obviously caused by electricity!"
"What? Damaged by electricity? Could it be that the person who came here has the power of lightning?"
"Boss, what should we do? Could it be Qiu Yiming? Doesn't he have lightning powers? I heard he's Fang Yuxin's fiancé. If it's him, we're in trouble!"
"Why are you panicking? It's definitely not him. Qiu Yiming is a military man. He must be outside fighting off zombies. He won't come here!"
"Who could it be? Is there someone else in the safe zone who has lightning powers?"
"Don't worry about it. There's no movement inside. Let's go in and take a look first!"
These people were talking at once, and Fang Mengyao's expression became uglier as she listened - these people were actually coming for the Fang family!
Then she heard the sound of the iron door being pushed open, and those people walked in, with their footsteps getting closer and closer.
Fang Mengyao subconsciously held her breath, wondering if these people would be trapped in the formation like her. Then, she saw ten people suddenly appear in this illusory space. These ten people were not very old, the youngest was seventeen or eighteen years old, and the oldest was about thirty-five or thirty-six years old.
The youngest one cried out in panic: "Ah! What's going on? Where is this place?"
The other people also looked unhappy and a little panicked. They obviously did not expect this situation to happen.
One of them swallowed, looked around vigilantly, and said, "Boss, what should we do? This place is too weird! Are we encountering the legendary ghost wall?"
The youngest person suddenly said at this time: "Could it be the formation described in novels? Qimen Bagua or something? Damn! Isn't the Fang family a business? How do they know this?"
After he said this, others also started talking about it.
"So what are we going to do? We're not going to be trapped here forever?"
"No! We must think of a solution as soon as possible! We have finally waited for such an opportunity, we can't be trapped here forever!"
"What should we do? If Fang Yuxin comes back and we haven't escaped yet, won't we be caught red-handed?"
"Yes, Boss, you better think of a solution!"
Fang Mengyao looked at these people coldly and laughed disdainfully.
Then, she saw one of the young men, who was about 27 or 28 years old, said with an unpleasant expression: "Shut up! What are you guys arguing about? If you have time for that, you might as well think about how to escape! What Xiao Li said just now is right, we must not be trapped here, and Fang Yuxin must not know about this!"
A doctor as powerful as Fang Yuxin is unique in the entire safe zone. Although he brought people to the Fang family to steal things this time, he had no intention of confronting the Fang family and offending Fang Yuxin!
He just wanted to take the things and leave. When Fang Yuxin came back, they would have already escaped. Could Fang Yuxin know that it was them who took the things?
But he never expected that there was someone in the Fang family who understood the Eight Trigrams and even set up a formation in the courtyard!
Damn! He had always thought that the strange gossips in the books were all lies, but he didn't know that they were actually true! And he even encountered it!
He suddenly felt anxious and regretful. If he had known this would happen, he would never have come to the Fang family!
But now that he was here, it was useless for him to regret it. The young man was able to survive the apocalypse and brought a group of people with him, so he was definitely not an ordinary person. He quickly calmed himself down and thought of a solution quickly.
The others were equally anxious. Someone suggested, "Why don't we find a way to attack? Isn't there something called the center of the formation in novels? As long as we find the center of the formation, we will definitely be able to get out!"
When he said this, the others' eyes lit up and they thought it was a solution.
But at this moment, the youngest boy said again: "But what if this formation bounces back all our attacks?"
As soon as this person said this, those who were eager to try immediately dared not to do it. Instead, they looked around in horror, fearing that something else might happen.
The leading young man hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's try first! We can't just sit here and wait for death, right? Lu Zi, you are the weakest. Even if it really rebounds, the lethality will definitely not be great. You go first!"
After he finished speaking, the youngest boy responded, then he pulled out a dagger, gestured with it, put it back, and clenched his fists, smashing into the void around him.
However, there was no response.
So, everyone else breathed a sigh of relief, and the young man in the lead said, "It looks like everything is fine, let's just attack in different directions!"
Fang Mengyao watched these people preparing to attack, and gradually began to get anxious. Her invisibility effect only lasted for five minutes! If she couldn't find a chance to get out, these people would find her!
She thought about it and started walking towards the door. She was just testing the waters, but as she walked, she found that the view ahead gradually became clearer.
Suddenly, a vague exit appeared in her field of vision, which was the open door. She looked at the door, hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed in her heart, gritted her teeth and walked out.
The further she walked, the more obvious the exit became. After only a few steps, she was already outside the door. As soon as she went out, she found that the mysterious feeling she had just had completely disappeared. She returned to the door and looked inside. The ten people were standing not far from the door, attacking all around.
This time, Fang Mengyao finally saw clearly.
She saw countless dandelion seeds flying in the courtyard, but because the light was too dim and the seeds were too small, they were not visible at all at the door. However, when those people attacked, the dandelion seeds emitted a faint light and disappeared in the attacked area.
Fang Mengyao instantly understood that these dandelion seeds could absorb the attack, but after that, they would be useless.
Obviously, this was a consumption-type formation. As long as she kept consuming it, she wouldn't be afraid of not being able to break it. So, she immediately had an idea.
It just so happens that she has come out now. She can just wait for these people to break the formation inside. By then, they will definitely be almost exhausted. Then she can go in, kill these people, and take away the supplies inside.
But then she discovered that when the dandelion seeds in one place were consumed, seeds in other places would make up for it. At the same time, there were many dandelions planted in the garden, and those dandelions would produce new seeds to make up for the consumed seeds.
Seeing this scene, she gnashed her teeth in hatred.
Fang Yuxin, you are really capable! It's just a small villa, but it's so well guarded!
At this time, her invisibility effect disappeared. Then, she heard footsteps coming from not far away. And judging from the sound, those people were actually heading in this direction!
Hearing the footsteps, her face first turned extremely ugly, and then she suddenly laughed. Then, she quickly walked to the green tree next to her and hid behind it.
Not long after, another group of people appeared. This time there were more people, eighteen in total. Moreover, they were also coming for the Fang family.
Fang Mengyao watched them walk to the door, and then they found the person trapped in the formation.
One of them was probably impatient and subconsciously said, "What's going on? These people actually went in first!"
The leader couldn't stand it anymore and shouted: "Shut up!"
Unfortunately, it's too late.
The people in the formation heard the sound, and then they subconsciously turned around and looked in the direction of the sound. Then they found that they were trapped in the formation and could only hear the sound but could not see it with their eyes.
Therefore, under the tension, some people subconsciously walked towards the courtyard, trying to distance themselves from the people at the door. However, this move only made him sink deeper and deeper, further away from the exit.
After he made this move, the other nine people hesitated for a moment and then followed him.
Fang Mengyao looked at this scene and laughed coldly again.
A bunch of trash!
The people at the door were confused. They had no idea that the people inside were trapped. When they saw those people walking inside, they were afraid that someone else would get to the good stuff first, so they rushed in without hesitation.
Then they discovered they were wrong.
Unfortunately, it’s too late to regret now.
Fang Mengyao saw all of this and smiled even more proudly. She was worried that no one would help her consume the formation inside, and now with the addition of these eighteen people, she didn't believe that this formation could last until Fang Yuxin came back!
But before going in, she could do something.
