C54 (1/2)
He suddenly saw a faint light appear in front of his eyes, and after walking for another ten feet, the scene became clear and bright. He saw that there was a staircase that led to a depth of fifty feet below the ground, and inside, there was actually a large meeting hall. Around it, there were two rows of tables and chairs, and in the middle of the hall, there was a large cloud bed. Under the dim light, Xiao Li looked at his surroundings and saw that there were three doors on his left and right. As for what exactly was inside, no one knew.
Xiao Li inspected his surroundings but didn't find anyone. Thus, he carefully descended the stone steps and arrived at the main hall. He checked the lobby a few times, but didn't find any hidden traps, so he went to the first door on the left. The door was so sealed that he couldn't see what was going on inside.
Xiao Li thought, ”If Xiao Ying is locked up here, it would be too scary. You have to know that she is a little girl.” If he were to be locked in this dark place all day, even he would be scared and go crazy.
Xiao Li carefully examined the surroundings of the door, but didn't find any mechanism to open it. He raised his hand and pushed against the door. There was no reaction from the door at all. Xiao Li immediately channeled his inner force into his palm and pushed on the door again, but there was no response. Xiao Li scratched his head. The little monkey said that the control mechanism must have a control mechanism. He thought that it must be hidden in a dark room, so after entering it, he must first destroy the control mechanism so that he wouldn't be trapped or killed by powerful mechanisms. Xiao Li believed that the central hub would be these stone chambers. Therefore, he wanted to destroy them before searching properly to see if he could find the little red light.
Seeing that he was unable to open the stone door, Xiao Li tried the other stone doors but the result was the same. When Xiao Li saw this, he thought, ”Maybe I was wrong, or there is a mechanism in the hall that controls the stone door.” He looked around carefully, but he still couldn't find anything. He couldn't help but feel anxious.
Even though he had entered the secret chamber, he realized that his power was so weak that it was blocked by a small stone door. How could he save Ying? Xiao Li was shocked as he thought about this. He had to calm down and think carefully about what to do.
Xiao Li walked back and forth in the main hall until he suddenly saw the bed in the middle, and unconsciously sat down on it. Holding his chin in his hand, he thought hard for a while, and finally came up with a few strategies: Firstly, if someone were to use brute force to break open the stone door, it might not be a big success, and it might even cause a commotion, so it would be undesirable; secondly, if he were to find a place to hide and eavesdrop a few words on the Master and the other elders, it would be convenient for him to do things in the future. When he thought of killing someone, he couldn't help but feel a little strange. Thus, no matter how he thought about it, the second method was still possible.
Thinking of this, he patted the armrest on the bed and decided that he would get up and find a place to hide. Suddenly, he felt a strong slap on the armrest of his bed. His hand felt that one of the armrests was not reliable so he lowered his head to check it.
Unknowingly, he was overjoyed and cheered in a low voice, ”So the secret mechanism was actually hidden here. No wonder we couldn't find it even after searching the hall.”
Surprisingly, Xiao Li found a mechanism button on the bed. He pressed it lightly and the third door on the right opened. As Xiao Li flew over, he used the dim light to faintly see the rows of objects inside the room. Because they were too far away, he couldn't see them clearly.
Immediately, Xiao Li walked into the stone room. Upon closer inspection, it turned out that the weapons were placed on the shelves. There were a total of three weapons racks. On the racks, there weren't many weapons. Each rack only had three blades. There were three swords on the first rack. One of them was shaped like a bronze scabbard with seven emeralds embedded in it. From its earliest to most, it was a Big Dipper. This seemed to be the sword of the seventh brother of the 'Star Gazing Seven', 'Moon Splitting Star'. How could it appear here? When Xiao Li saw the sword, suspicion arose in his heart. He immediately stretched his hand out to pick up the sword to examine it.
When Xiao Li picked up the treasured sword, there was suddenly a crisp sound in the hall, causing him to turn around in shock. He saw the stone door of the stone room quickly closing, and he was greatly alarmed. He reached out to place the sword in his hand on the rack, and the stone door's closing slowed down. At this moment, his upper body had already left the stone door. With a boom, the stone door closed.
Xiao Li was so shocked that cold sweat broke out all over his body. If he had been that slow just now, he would have been strangled to death in the stone door. He didn't dare to tarry any longer. He was afraid that he would alert the people in the inner hall with the mechanism, so he immediately flew to the bedside of the bed to find the other mechanisms to open the other stone doors to check if Ying was trapped here.
He had discovered six identical mechanisms on the armrest of the bed, one on each side. At that time, he didn't dare to open them one by one. He only wanted to open one to check the situation. Now, he discovered that there was no danger and immediately activated all the other mechanisms. He wanted to check them one by one, but just as he opened the stone door, a black shadow suddenly shot towards him.
Startled, Xiao Li jumped to the left to dodge the attack. The black shadow saw that he had avoided the attack, so it ignored him and turned to the stone room on the right. He quickly circled the three stone rooms to the right, and only then did Xiao Li come back to his senses.
Seeing how fast the other party was moving and how he seemed to be looking for something, he realized that the other party had probably been following behind him the entire time, trying to find something through him. However, no matter how much he thought about it, Xiao Li still didn't know how he could help Fang Xingjian find what he needed. However, Xiao Li didn't have the time to think about it right now.
When Xiao Li saw that he had finished inspecting the stone room on the right, he immediately went forward to stop him and prevent him from entering the stone room on the left. When that person saw Xiao Li flying towards him and blocking his path, he immediately struck out with his palm without saying a word. His palm carried a strong wind and actually struck out, attracting the enemy's life.
At this moment, Xiao Li completely lost all of his worries and immediately launched a fierce counterattack. He originally didn't know whether to keep his hands together or not as he put his hands together and pointed out with his index and index fingers. It was a venomous snake spitting out a tongue, aiming at the acupoints on the opponent's palm.
If Xiao Li were to strike, then that person's palm would be instantly crippled. When that person saw Xiao Li's fierce counterattack, he did not dare to take it head on. Instead, he moved his body to dodge Xiao Li's finger attack while simultaneously striking Xiao Li's chest and lower abdomen with his two palms. Xiao Li, on the other hand, swung his body as though he had suddenly turned into a weak and boneless body. He placed his legs together on the ground and shot his body to the left side of the other party, still standing in the same position without moving.
That black-clothed man didn't expect Xiao Li's martial arts to be so strange. With a snort, he arrived at his left side and caught Xiao Li off guard. He quickly sent a palm strike towards Xiao Li's head, hoping to surround Wei Li and save Zhao.
Xiao Li twisted his body, his legs once again pulling on the ground. He suddenly appeared behind the black clothed man again, and attacked his back with the same move.
The black clothed man was restrained by Xiao Li's strange movement technique. He actually had nowhere to use his abilities to do so. Being forced into a state of chaos, he could only use his defensive capabilities. He was completely in a passive position. Xiao Li was flying up and down around him, but his technique was still the same as before. The left, the right, the right, the front, the strange and unpredictable.
The black clothed man was abnormally angry. An expert like him had never been killed in a single move by a single person. He had no way of fighting back, unless the opponent was much stronger than him and was playing a trick on him. However, it was obvious that Xiao Li's movement technique was strange and there was nothing special about his moves. Yet, he couldn't keep up with the speed of Xiao Li's strange movements. How could this not make him upset?
From the time he had been in charge until now, the black clothed man had already received more than thirty strikes from Xiao Li, each of them aimed at attacking where he had to be saved before he could catch his breath. After over thirty moves, the black clothed man unleashed his true flames. Seeing Xiao Li point at him, he didn't even bother to point at him and just used his two fingers to clash head on with Xiao Li's.
Seeing that his opponent was no longer able to win with a surprise move, Xiao Li did not try to dodge and instead used both of his fingers to increase his strength to meet the blow. With a ”chi” sound, the two of them faced off against each other. This was their first move since the beginning of the fight.
The man in black retreated quickly and shouted angrily, ”It's you!”
When Xiao Li heard the voice of the black clothed person, he immediately realized who it was. The man in black turned out to be Old Zhao. Xiao Li was speechless and nodded his head. He knew that Old Zhao had found out from his inner force that he was the one who saved Little Monkey that day.
