Escorting the two of them, Situqian and the Guizhai people followed Xiaohong to move on.After rushing for more than an hour, everyone did not stop at all and moved forward at full speed all the way.

The old woman was terrified all the way. Once they found the dead person, she would have no chance of surviving.The old man in the inn hadn't shown up and hadn't seen Situ Xue, so he naturally didn't understand the key point.Seeing the terrified look on the old woman's face, she didn't know why, and said, "What are you afraid of, the worst is death. Besides, we are not dead yet, we haven't seen any big wind and waves, what is there to be afraid of?"

The old woman opened her mouth, but said nothing.She knew that if she spoke out, there would be no hope of survival.

When approaching the inn, Xiaohong quickly flew over, circling anxiously around the ruins.Looking at the big pit that had collapsed by the side of the road, everyone looked at the two being detained in horror, trying to see the flaws in their faces.

"Say, what the hell happened here?"

The old man smiled mockingly, stared at everyone fiercely, and said nothing.Seeing that the two of them have become lambs waiting to be slaughtered and still being so arrogant, and then thinking about the brother who died tragically just now, the young man next to him slapped him, stared at the old man and asked, "You old man, do you want to say it or not?" Said, throw you in the mountains to feed the wolves."

Although the young man was not very skilled, he slapped him so hard that the corners of the old man's mouth were full of blood. "Bah" spat out the blood in his mouth, and bumped his head into the little guy's body, almost hitting him.

"Hmph, let me see how long you can last?" A few people gathered around and started kicking.Fallen grass becomes bandits, whoever has few lives in their hands is a master who will not die, and he will naturally be merciless when beating people.

Situ Qian stood aside and tacitly accepted everyone's actions. Seeing that it was almost done, she was afraid of being killed, let alone asked, so she shouted: "Stop." The old man was almost dead.Situ Qian walked up to her and said, "If my predictions are correct, the inn you are in is a kind of formation. It was the most prosperous during the Warring States period. It was built on the border between the two countries and used to trap and kill the enemy."

Hearing what Situ Qian said, the old man was puzzled, wondering why Situ Qian knew this at such a young age.Knowing his doubts, Situ Qian went on to say: "My father is a general. I have been familiar with the art of war since I was a child, so I naturally understand this. Now you can tell me your purpose of triggering this formation."

"A little girl, you were still in your mother's womb when the old man was roaming the rivers and lakes. There is no way to make the old man submit." The old man's words were very disdainful.

"If you promise to let my husband and wife go, maybe I'll sue you as soon as I'm happy."

Xiaohong's unusual behavior made Situqian feel uneasy, not knowing what happened.Hearing what the old man said, I was a little shaken.

The old man is an old man, so he observed Situ Qian's wavering, and then said bewitchingly: "The purpose of mobilizing this formation is to kill people. I guarantee that it will never be someone from your ghost village. Why do you have to make things difficult for this old man."

"Okay, I promise you."

"That's right, I have a way for you to go down below, and you will understand after reading it."

As soon as the old man agreed, the old woman became anxious and gave the old man a wink.But the old man was so well-informed that he didn't pay any attention to it at all.Situ Qian was impatient and urged the old man to act.The old man smiled and said: "Now I am the fish and you are the knife. If you don't keep your promises, I can't do anything to you?"

The old man was so cunning, Situqian had no choice but to raise his hand and swear: "I, Situqian, swear to the sky, if what this man said is true, I will let him and his wife leave. If not, the sky will strike with thunder."

"The shopkeeper is satisfied now, but in order to prevent you from playing tricks, the lady will stay on top. If you act recklessly, you will take her life in an instant."

The old man led everyone to the side of a big tree in the inn, pointed to the east direction and said: "This is here, dig it up, and you can go down."

After digging out the soil above, a huge bluestone slab was exposed below, with an iron cable attached to it.Buried in the soil has been rusty.Dozens of people worked together to pull the bluestone slab apart, revealing a passage.

"Village Master, let me take someone down." Judge Pen said.

As soon as the passage opened, Xiaohong swooped in.Seeing that Xiao Hong was in such a hurry, Situ Qian said: "No need, you guard the outside, if we can't get out, then feed that old woman to the wolves."

Knowing that no one can change Situqian's decision, Yuan Kai cupped his fists and said, "Don't worry, the village master, if this old bastard dares to mess around, I'll kill his wife alive." He gave the old man a hard look.

Xiaohong was chattering and urging in the cave.In order to prevent hidden weapons, everyone pushed Yuan Kai forward, letting him lead the way, and everyone carefully followed behind with torches on.

Walking down the steps, an imperceptible cold smile appeared on the old man's face.The walking old man pretended to accidentally shake his body and fell forward.Situ Qian took a step forward subconsciously, reached out to grab it, and heard a 'click' under her feet, and stepped on the mechanism.The old man took advantage of the situation and lay down on the ground, clinging to the ground tightly.

As soon as the organ was moved, the crossbow inside the wall was triggered, and rain arrows shot out from inside with a 'swoosh'.Those who had no time to escape were turned into hedgehogs by sharp arrows.With Situ Qian's soft sword in hand, she could barely block the flying arrows. Xiao Hong flapped her wings to dodge the flying arrows in the narrow passage.

There were more and more flying arrows, and Situ Qian shouted behind her: "Get down." Not many people survived, looking at the dead companion's body, everyone looked at the old man in front with fire in their eyes.The arrow gradually weakened, one of them was furious, and he got up and prepared to go up and kill the old man.

Looking at the angry crowd, the old man turned his head and smiled sinisterly.Situ Qian secretly said: "It's not good." She pulled the person who had just stood up to the ground.Sure enough, he had already untied the rope on the old man, picked up a stone in his hand, and threw it out along the downhill passage. Immediately, there were flying arrows everywhere in the passage.

Everyone was suppressed by the flying arrows, and there was nothing they could do about the old man.The old man was obviously familiar with the passage. He climbed up to the wall and bumped it suddenly. A passage appeared on the wall.

Just as his feet left the hole, an iron fence with spikes fell down.If a person who doesn't know the mystery, hesitates for a moment, he will definitely be cut in half.

When the old man hid in, the arrows had stopped flying, and the walls on both sides were full of arrows.Everyone get up carefully.The old man stayed by the fence and was not in a hurry to leave, he waited for everyone to get up with a smile on his face.

"Why? Aren't you afraid that we will kill your wife?" Situ Qian said with a cold face.

The old man was on the other side of the fence, knowing that no one could do anything to him, he said proudly: "Humph, what a joke, the husband and wife are originally birds of the same forest, and when disaster strikes, they fly separately. Haven't you heard of it?"

"I have sworn to let you go, is it necessary for you?"

"Bah, I swear, I swore a lot back then. If it had been fulfilled, it would have been ashes long ago. How could I believe you? Besides, in the first half of my life, I burned, killed, looted, and killed people without blinking an eye. How many people in the Jianghu court want My life has allowed me to escape from death a few times, and it is based on my ruthlessness."

Hearing the old man's proud tone, Situ Qian sneered and said, "Really?"
