Chapter 996 The Dead Man
As Gu Zheng spoke, he waved the sleeve of his plain clothes, and the palm wind swept across the man's hand holding the knife. The man suddenly felt his wrist go limp, and the knife in his hand fell to the ground with a "bang".

Patriarch Xue strode forward and grabbed his neck.

"Do you want to say it? If you don't say it, I will let you taste the feeling that life is worse than death!"

But that man also seemed to be not afraid of death, his face was flushed from holding back, but he didn't speak.

Patriarch Yang quickly explained to Gu Zheng the characteristics of the secret channel mechanism here.

Patriarch Xue asked directly: "King of Nanyue, do you want to torture him?"

"If the time drags on, I'm afraid the people inside have already escaped."

He heard that the King of Nanyue and the Queen of Nanyue devoted themselves to doing good deeds and committed such evil things as torture, so he didn't know whether he liked it or not.

Unexpectedly, Gu Zheng nodded: "To deal with this kind of person, you don't need to talk about morals, just do what you want."

He has good hearing, and he heard everything that happened in the study just now.

The wicked will use evil to grind, the truth that has never changed through the ages.

Patriarch Xue was instantly happy. It turned out that the King of Nanyue was not a pedantic person, and his temperament was really to his liking.

But when the man heard that he was going to be tortured, he quickly confessed: "Let me... let me go... I am willing to open the secret channel for you!"

Patriarch Xue let go of the man cursing.

"Don't cry when you don't see the coffin! If you don't give you a little bit of suffering, you don't even know how to write the word dead!"

"Hmph, what tricks you dare to play, be careful I will cut off your head!"

The man ignored Patriarch Xue, and pushed aside the bookshelf full of books by himself, revealing a whole row of mechanism buttons hidden behind the bookshelf, a total of eight.

Which one is correct?
At this time the man spoke: "King of Nanyue, can you come over and help me, I don't have the strength to press these buttons."

Patriarch Yang and Patriarch Xue objected together: "You don't need to trouble the King of Nanyue with such trivial matters."

Gu Zheng said in a very calm tone: "It's okay."

He looked at Patriarch Yang and Patriarch Xue again:
"There may be hidden weapons at the entrance of the secret passage inside, you'd better go out first, lest you will be hurt in a while.

Patriarch Yang and Patriarch Xue looked at each other, and silently exited the study.

They have seen the ability of the King of Nanyue before, and they are afraid that there is nothing in this world that can hurt him.

Not only would they not be able to help him if they stayed in the study, but they would hinder him instead. This is an ironclad fact.

When the man heard Gu Zheng's words, his face turned as white as paper.

Gu Zheng laughed instead.

"Even if there is a hidden weapon mechanism, you don't know about it, right?"

Gu Zheng decided to give him one last chance.

If he still didn't tell the truth, then no wonder he sent him to heaven.

The man hesitated for a while, and said, "There must be no hidden weapon..."

He pressed his hand on the second button, twisted it hard, and an iron door slowly appeared on the wall.

The man's hand seemed to shake.

But he didn't stop there, but instead pressed his hand on the seventh button and twisted it hard.

As the iron door was slowly pushed open, countless hidden weapons flew out from inside.

"Sososo!" "Sososo!"

The man immediately lowered his body and wanted to roll into the secret passage.

Gu Zheng had already noticed at this moment that the first round of hidden weapons shot directly at the upper part, and it was relatively safe under the feet.

Therefore, this man knew how the hidden weapon would be launched early on.

He should be a dead man cultivated by the Chu family.

At the beginning, he pretended to delay time, because his ultimate goal was to kill Gu Zheng with a hidden weapon.
