Chapter 278 Recorder

A severed hand and a tape recorder clearly showed me a trap.

Some "something" used this simple thing to attract Xian Hongye and me to this place.

And that thing, you have to have enough IQ to tinker with a tape recorder.

I can only think of one person!

Yin nineteen.

At this time, a cold "greeting" suddenly came from behind me: "Are you here?"

The man's voice made me feel a little strange and familiar, but I didn't have time to think about it carefully.

I reached out, picked up the radio in the ancient tripod, turned around and threw it at the place where the man was speaking.

The moment I turned around, I saw a black shadow flashing towards me out of the corner of my eye!

The speed of the shadow was too fast, I only vaguely felt him jumping in the air, and immediately smashed the tape recorder I threw at him.

Among the flying debris, I didn't have time to think about it, and took out the throwing knife in my hand, hoping to knock the black shadow down from midair.

But what I didn't expect at all was that I couldn't throw this knife out of my hand.

Because at this moment, a person suddenly rushed out from one end of the blue mist and slammed into my body fiercely. The figure had a strong smell of blood all over its body, and I saw stars in my eyes when it hit me directly, and it made me feel like I was in my hand. The dagger lost its aim.

I staggered and fell to the ground together with that person. At the same time, the flashlight in my mouth flew out. When I got up, there was already a cold dagger standing by my throat.

The owner of the dagger, that is, the black shadow, is now facing down on the face of the person who hit me, holding my head with one hand, and while pointing the dagger at my throat, "cluck "The laughter made me feel uncomfortable.

Xian Hongye looked at the man with a tense and deadlocked expression. She tightly held the dagger in her hands and shouted at the shadow: "Let Lao Tian and Lin Shaosong go."

Following Xian Hongye's words, I suddenly realized that the man who was "thrown" out and crawled on top of me was none other than Lin Shaosong with a bloody face and one missing arm.

Needless to say about Lin Shaosong's tragic situation, but at this moment, I think he is still awake, and he seems to have no fear of his life.

After taking a breath of relief, I braved up and questioned the black shadow: "Who are you? Why are you plotting against us?"

The black figure that suddenly appeared was behind me, so I couldn't see his figure, but based on the judgment of the fight just now, I feel that this guy should be the subordinate of the old nineteen who appeared next to us in the Yaowang Temple, that black man in clothes.

So I tentatively asked: "You are responsible for the movement in the underground of this ancient city, right? Who are you, and what do you have to do with Old Nineteen?"

Facing my doubts, the man answered me as expected: "It's easy to say, I just used people's money to eliminate disasters, and I kidnapped you, not for my life, but just to ask for something for my boss!"

I responded, "Is that the gourd in Yaowang's hand? We smashed it when we snatched it in the Yaowang Palace. There is only a note inside. If you want it, just take it."

While speaking, I asked Xian Hongye to take out the letter and hand it to this man.

But at this moment, the man made a stop gesture to Xian Hongye, and then snapped his fingers in the void.

At this moment, five or six people also wearing black night suits walked out of the blue mist.

After those people appeared, they quickly stood behind Xian Hongye.

After slightly controlling Xian Hongye, the man's knife was suddenly removed from my neck, and he walked around Lin Shaosong, who was lying on the ground and couldn't help moaning, and walked in front of me.

The man was still of medium height, wearing black clothes, but this time he didn't wrap his face with a black cloth, but only wore that metallic shiny iron mask.

I can't see his expression, but I can feel that the face behind that mask must be full of pride and conceit, otherwise he wouldn't be able to let me go so easily after defusing my offensive, let me squat down to help Lin Shaosong, let me Xian Hongye ran over and leaned against me.

He knows that with the strength of the three of us, we are no match for him and his subordinates.This has been proved in Yaowang Temple.

After I stabilized my mood, the man in black said to me word by word: "What our boss wants is not the torn piece of paper, but something in your mind!"

"Me?" I asked completely puzzled, "What can I give you?"

The man didn't answer me immediately, but turned around and walked towards the cauldron beside me.

He stretched out his hand, patted the big cauldron with his arm, pondered for a while, and then said to me: "Tian Buer, don't you find it strange? Why did only their husband and wife escape successfully when Zhao Gong entered this underground palace? , and in the following hundreds of years, the remaining people who dared to break into the underground palace all died here?"

These words, in fact, have been bothering me.

From the "strong soldier" American explorer Jonson to the knowledgeable literature and history master Xian Yundu, all these people were killed here, but only Zhao Gong, who was a cook, escaped with a kitchen knife.

This inevitably reminds me of something.

Facing the "reminder" from the man in black, I also walked a few steps closer with great interest, wanting to take a closer look at the tripod body.

Unfortunately, the amount of information I know is really limited, and I wonder if this guy has never read the so-called Notes of the Medicine King, how did he know these contents?

I don't know, so after I took a few glances, I could only continue to ask the man: "Zhao Gong is a general with great powers. It is natural for him to escape. How do I know why? Besides, even if there is someone on this tripod I'm not Xian Yundu, how could I know about ancient texts and illustrations?"

"Hey!" The man in black sneered, and then pointed to the cauldron and said, "Look at the things on the tripod yourself, and you will understand. If you don't understand, let your girlfriend read it with you. He is an expert in literature and history." , but much smarter than you."

While speaking, one of the men in black walked over, she reached out her hand to Xian Hongye's hair very rudely, trying to pull Hongye up and drag her towards Ding.

Seeing the rough actions of that subordinate, I felt a surge of anger from my heart, and then I threw out my only five-purpose saber, hitting that kid in the face.

The distance between me and that person was not far, so the knife hit that person in the eye without accident.

After the bone crack sound of "Beng", the man's eyes spattered a stream of blood, and then he took a few steps back and fell to the ground.

I didn't even need to look at it and said: "Keep your hands and feet clean, next time you are blind, it won't be your eyes!"

My action didn't irritate the overconfident man in black, but it made that reckless subordinate become ruthless, and this guy shouted: "Wean you! I want to offer a leather chicken!"

Then he pulled out a dagger and slashed at me.
