Chapter 2344: So many flying arrows, who will try it?
Gu Ning came to the door of the tomb, but he was not in a hurry to go in. Instead, he looked around first.
This tomb chamber is very large, about fifty or sixty square meters, and in front of the stone gate, there is a canal about two and a half meters long. There is no bridge, so if you want to get across, you have to jump over it yourself.
It is difficult for ordinary people to jump over a distance of two and a half or six meters. With the help of the five-meter-long ground in the tomb passage, Ma Shibiao should be able to pass it, but his subordinates may not be able to pass it.
Because two of them were injured, and the other one who was not injured didn't look very strong either.
However, this two-and-a-half-meter-wide canal was not a problem at all for Gu Ning, and the same was true for Nicholas Love.
It was unrealistic to swim across this canal because there were many strange things in the canal that came directly to the surface of the water, so they were strangled before they even had the idea of swimming across.
Looking at the canal, Ma Shibiao frowned in embarrassment: "Can we jump over it?"
Perhaps with his ability, he could jump over it, but he was also worried that he might not be able to.
And even if you jump over and get the things, how do you get them? If you just throw them away, it is not realistic at all, because the ancient objects are fragile and will be useless if they are broken.
"Looking at your skills, you should be quite capable, so you shouldn't be unable to jump over this point!" Gu Ning said with a hint of sarcasm.
Although Ma Shibiao was very unhappy about being ridiculed by Gu Ning, he would definitely be able to get over it after hearing what Gu Ning said, so if he refuted, it would just be a slap in the face.
"Little fox, you go first. There must be hidden weapons inside. Go and try it and come back. Don't stay to avoid getting hurt." Gu Ning said, and this time he let the fox demon go to test it.
The fox demon was very agile, so Gu Ning wasn't worried.
Upon hearing this, the fox demon flew over the canal easily and landed on the ground on the opposite side.
At the moment the fox demon landed on the ground, arrows were fired from all directions, attacking the area where the fox demon was standing. There were more arrows than the one Gu Ning had to deal with just now.
Ma Shibiao and his companions were frightened when they saw this. If they went over directly and couldn't handle it, they would probably become a hornet's nest.
Over there, the fox demon dodged a few times and immediately jumped back. After the fox demon jumped back, the flying arrows in the tomb stopped.
The mechanism in the tomb is sensitive. As long as any foreign object breaks in, the mechanism will be activated and the hidden weapon will be launched.
"How many hidden weapons are there?" Ma Shibiao asked. He was not asking Gu Ning, he just asked this question.
"We can only keep testing. When we stop launching, that will be the end." Gu Ning said.
"But with so many flying arrows, who will go to test it?" Ma Shibiao said. The meaning of his words was very clear. It was impossible for him to go, and he would not call his men to go.
Gu Ning could understand what Ma Shibiao meant! He sneered and said, "Then throw something in and try it!"
With so many arrows being launched, she certainly didn't want to go alone. If she wanted to go, she wanted to go with someone. Even though she could handle it, she couldn't stand Ma Shibiao and his men just sitting back and enjoying the fruits of their labor.
"Okay, then let's throw the things away." Upon hearing this, Ma Shibiao immediately agreed.
"Then throw it over! Take out the valuables first, and then throw the backpack over directly, one by one. One person's things, or things that are too light, are not enough to test." Gu Ning saw that Ma Shibiao agreed but had no intention of throwing things, so Gu Ning said coldly.
Gu Ning didn't know whether the weight of one person's things or the lightness was enough to test Gu Ning, but he said this in order to let them throw more things over.
Upon hearing this, Ma Shibiao did not hesitate any longer and let one of his men go first.
The subordinate did not dare to hesitate. There was nothing valuable in the backpack. They all had guns on them, so they just threw it out.
After the backpack landed, nothing happened.
"What's going on?" Ma Shibiao asked.
"But it's too light. Let's throw another person's bag over and see." Gu Ning said, thinking that he might have guessed right. The weight was too light and could not trigger the mechanism.
Then, another person's backpack was thrown over. There were some tools in the bag, so it was quite heavy.
The backpack fell to the ground and, as expected, the mechanism was triggered. Arrows were fired from all directions, and many of them hit the backpack.
They didn't stop until they had fired almost two hundred arrows.
After observation, Gu Ning guessed that each block of the ground was a mechanism for a hidden weapon. Once the mechanism on this block was triggered and the hidden weapon was fired, it would not fire again when it was triggered again.
It just so happens that the floor is arranged in a nine-square grid.
In order to verify his guess, Gu Ning asked the fox demon to jump again to the position it had just been to, and not touch any other frames except that one.
The fox demon took the order and leaped over again, landing where it had just landed.
Because the fox demon came back very quickly after it went over just now, and the original arrows had not been shot out yet, so this time when it went over, it caused more arrows to be shot out.
Although the fox demon was able to dodge them, it was still a bit thrilling and I was almost shot several times.
After all, there are many flying arrows, and the area they can stay in is only about two square meters, so the space for hiding is limited.
If you accidentally step on other sections, more arrows will fly towards you.
After firing hundreds of arrows this time, they stopped. Together with the last time, there were almost more than two hundred arrows.
So Gu Ning was sure that there were about two hundred flying arrows in each section.
After the fox demon came back, Gu Ning let the fox demon go again, but it could only step on the section it had just been to and the section with the bag.
Gu Ning's guess was indeed verified. After the fox demon landed, no more arrows flew around.
Ma Shibiao and his companions, who were unaware of the situation, thought that there were no more hidden weapons, and they were delighted: "No more hidden weapons..."
"No, after my guess and verification, there are no hidden weapons on the ground where the fox is standing and the ground with the backpack, but there are still some in other places. The underground over there is a nine-square grid. After verification with the fox and the backpack, I guess that each section is a mechanism for a hidden weapon. Only after the mechanism triggers the hidden weapon to be launched, there will be no hidden weapons launched again." Gu Ning said.
"ah!"
Hearing this, Ma Shibiao's face turned unhappy.
That being said, there are still seven sections left, and they don't have enough stuff to throw away! (End of this chapter)
