Chapter 237 I stepped on the mechanism!

Looking at the crossbow arrow deeply embedded in the bluestone slab, Captain Zhao broke out in a cold sweat.

What happened just now was extremely dangerous.

If Wang Ye hadn't pulled it, he would have been shot through by the crossbow arrow!

"Captain Zhao..."

Just as Captain Zhao was feeling scared, Wang Ye's voice came from the side: "Are you still disappointed now?"

At this time, Wang Ye was extremely helpless.

Just now, Captain Zhao patted his chest loudly, and he pulled the spring and the tripwire for a long time, and people really thought he had something.

After all this time, this guy is just talking.

If you really encounter this fatal mechanism, you will be at a loss.

If I hadn't taken action just now, this guy would have probably been dead!

"I was just careless for a moment!"

As if he was a little embarrassed, Captain Zhao said, "This Tang Baichuan is indeed worthy of being from the Tang Sect. He is really quite capable. He actually went against the grain and deliberately exposed the mechanism to lure the enemy into a trap..."

"But I, Old Zhao, am not a vegetarian either!"

"After all, I have learned the art of mechanical engineering. With this previous experience, the mechanical engineering here will not be difficult for me!"

Having said that, Captain Zhao stood up and walked towards the window of the room.

Seeing the actions of Captain Zhao in front of him, Wang Ye was slightly stunned.

Immediately, he said, "Captain Zhao, what are you doing?"

"If it doesn't work, let's just evacuate. The things in here can't escape, so there's no need to risk our lives!"

Wang Ye's words were full of worry.

It’s not that Wang Ye is afraid.

Given his level of attainment, even though the crossbow arrow was powerful, it was unable to hurt him at all.

The only thing he was worried about now was Captain Zhao in front of him.

Captain Zhao had read a few books about mechanisms from somewhere before, but when he encountered this situation, he had to jump out and prove himself.

If something bad happens to him, it will be quite troublesome.

"Manager Wang, you don't have to worry!"

After hearing Wang Ye's words, Captain Zhao said, "It has been recorded that all the mechanisms in the house are often aimed at the front door!"

"At this point, as long as we bypass the main door and attack from the window, we will be safe!"

As he spoke, Captain Zhao came to the window.

After learning from the previous lesson, he first tried to see if there were any traps around the window.

After making sure it was safe, he pushed the window hard and fell to the ground.

He did this because he was afraid that if the window was opened, a crossbow arrow would injure someone again.

However, after Captain Zhao lowered his body, no one reacted.

Apparently, there was no mechanism behind the window.

"It's just as I expected!"

After seeing that there was no movement at the window, Captain Zhao laughed and said, "Tang Baichuan was in such a hurry to escape, there really is no trap set around this window!"

As he spoke, Captain Zhao looked towards the window and saw a crossbow resting on the table, with the arrow pointing at the door.

Anyone who pushes the door open will be shot to death by a crossbow in an instant!

"Manager Wang, come and see!"

Seeing this, Captain Zhao said to Wang Ye behind him: "It's just as I guessed. The mechanism in this room is aimed at the main door. Anyone who enters rashly will be shot to death by a crossbow..."

"But now it's good, I have seen through all these mechanisms."

"I just need to enter through the window and destroy the crossbow. Then the mechanism will be broken!"

As he said this, Captain Zhao planned to enter the room through the window.

"Captain Zhao, please be more careful!"

Seeing what Captain Zhao did, Wang Ye grabbed Captain Zhao's clothes and said, "That's what you said at the door just now. Do you dare to do this again?"

"If there's anything fishy going on here, you'll have to confess!"

"Hey, Shopkeeper Wang, don't worry!"

After hearing what Wang Ye said, Captain Zhao said, "I'm not a fool. How could I fail twice in the same thing?!"

"Tang Baichuan is just a traitor of the Tang Clan. He escaped in such a hurry. How could he really leave behind any ingenious traps for me?"

As he spoke, Captain Zhao moved and went straight into the house.

As he entered the house, Captain Zhao stomped his feet hard.

I felt relieved only after I found out there was no trap under my feet.

"Look, Shopkeeper Wang..."

At this time, Captain Zhao was walking around the house, and he said to Wang Ye at the window: "I told you, the mechanism here has been cracked."

"Look at me now, not everything..."

Having said this, Captain Zhao froze and stood there in a daze.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

The reason was simple, it was because he felt his feet suddenly sink, as if he had stepped on some mechanism.

"What's wrong, Captain Zhao?"

Seeing Captain Zhao standing there in a daze, Wang Ye asked, "Why did you stop talking halfway?"

"I stepped on a mechanism!"

At this time, Captain Zhao spoke.

"Okay, stop the bullshit!"

Looking at Captain Zhao in front of him, Wang Ye said, "This kind of trick can't scare me!"

"If you really stepped on the mechanism, you would have been lying on the ground cold by now. How could you still have the chance to talk to me about this!?"

"Hurry up and destroy the crossbow and let me in, so I can see what treasures are inside!"

Wang Ye's words were full of expectations.

"I really didn't lie to you!"

After hearing Wang Ye's words, Captain Zhao said, "This is the Tang Sect's unique spring mechanism. The activation mechanism is right under my feet!"

As he spoke, Captain Zhao looked very serious.

"You're okay, too?"

Hearing this, Wang Ye spoke.

"That's because I didn't lift my foot!"

At this time, Captain Zhao said: "As soon as I lift my foot, the spring inside will be activated immediately..."

"I've seen this mechanism in a book. It's based on saltpeter, sulfur, and charcoal. Once activated, it will explode violently, and anyone who gets hit will definitely die!"

As he spoke, sweat dripped down Captain Zhao's forehead and he was extremely nervous.

"What should I do then?"

After hearing what Captain Zhao said, Wang Ye frowned and said nervously, "If there is a violent explosion, won't we all die here?"

Seeing Wang Ye’s nervous expression, Captain Zhao felt warmed in his heart.

It turns out that there is true love in the world, and there are people who care about their own life and death.

"No..."

Thinking of this, Captain Zhao shook his head and said, "These are only aimed at the people who stepped on the mechanism, and should have nothing to do with others..."

Huh! As soon as he said this, Wang Ye slowly exhaled a breath of foul air.

He looked at Captain Zhao and said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? You've made me so nervous!"

"I thought this mechanism would implicate me!"

???

When these words came out, Captain Zhao was stunned.

After all this time, this old money-grubber was completely worried about his own safety.
