Du Jiajun searched Taiyi Mountain for seven days and seven nights, but found no trace of the three of them.
Du Jiajun also entered Taiyi Cave, because the environment inside was too complicated and it was impossible to find the whereabouts of the three of them.
Du Jiajun searched in the mountains for seven days and seven nights, and everyone was exhausted.
Even though Dewey issued a death order, they did not dare to stop. They searched day and night, taking turns to rest when they were tired. Day and night had already been reversed.
Jiulian and Chen Changxing also gained a general understanding of the Eight Formations in these seven days.
The next step, of course, is to introduce Du Jiajun into the cave and catch turtles in an urn.
Dewey was furious without his son. As long as he could find traces of Xu Xian, he would definitely take Xu Xian's life at all costs.
Therefore, it is actually very simple for Xu Xian to lure the Du family army over.
Xu Xian went up the mountain to catch a rabbit. After handling it, he started grilling it outside the cave.
"The smoke is not strong enough. I will go to the tree and cut some fresh branches."
Xu Xian and Jiulian were responsible for adding branches, while Chen Changxing was responsible for roasting rabbit meat.
I have to admire Chen Changxing's wild survival skills. In the raging fire with thick smoke, he roasted the rabbit until it was charred on the inside, tender on the outside, and fragrant. With a little salt, it was done.
The Du family army searched for seven days and seven nights in Taiyi Mountain. Suddenly they saw smoke and found that the enemy was missing. They were overjoyed and quickly surrounded them.
When I arrived at the entrance of the cave, I saw a pile of burning branches and a few bones next to them.
With a frown on his face, Dewey said:
"It has been seven days and seven nights, and Chen San has not shown up. But now that he shows up in such a high-profile manner, he must have laid a trap waiting for us to step on."
Master Sun nodded and said:
"There must be a trap, but they only have three people. No matter how perfect the trap is, it still needs people to set it up. They don't have enough manpower, so even if there is a trap, there is nothing to fear. We can use the human sea tactic to pile him up to death.
We can send people in to investigate first. Once we figure out the layout of the cave, they will have nothing to hide. "
If there are no eight formation diagrams in Taiyi Cave, Master Sun's speculation is completely reasonable.
There are eight mysterious formations in Taiyi Cave, and everything cannot be speculated according to common sense.
Dewey felt that Master Sun was right and said:
"Team Zhou, you take your team to explore the path first. Whether you catch Chen San or bring back Chen San's head, you will be heavily rewarded."
Captain Zhou was nine feet tall, with a rugged appearance, majestic appearance, and the strength to carry a cauldron. He was already 70% skilled in the Thirteen Taibao Kung Fu, and he did not pay attention to the trap set by a scholar who had no power to tie a chicken.
Hearing this, Captain Zhou patted his chest and said:
"Don't worry, Master Du. Since I know that Chen San is hiding in the cave, I will definitely capture him."
Captain Zhou is Dewey's right-hand man, and Dewey has great confidence in his ability.
In order to win people's hearts and motivate the generals, Dewey patted Captain Zhou on the shoulder and said:
“Xiao Zhou, Chen San’s strength is not scary, what’s scary about him is that his machinations are hard to guard against.
If you really can't do anything, you can avoid its sharp edges and protect yourself first, so that you can better serve the Du family. "
Captain Zhou is a rough man but also a sweet-tempered person. He is the kind of person who is willing to sacrifice his life for others who treat him well.
Dewey's concern moved Captain Zhou to tears. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed:
"Thank you Mr. Du for your concern. It is unlikely that Mr. Zhou will be able to repay Mr. Du's kindness even if his body is shattered into pieces.
Zhou must capture Chen San and let Mr. Du do whatever he wants. "
After the master and servant said goodbye for a while, Captain Zhou took out the sword from his waist, lit the torch, and led the ten team members into the cave.
Dujiazhuang is also at the foot of Taiyi Mountain. Captain Zhou and his team members have also visited Taiyi Cave and have a certain understanding of the layout of the cave.
As soon as Captain Zhou entered the Junkarst Cave, he found that the layout had changed. The surrounding area was more open, the space seemed to be larger, and the positions of some stalactites had also changed.
Xu Xian did this deliberately. He wanted to give Du Jiajun a little shock, tell Du Jiajun that he was very powerful, and make Du Jiajun act more cautiously, and only then would he have a chance.
The less powerful he is, the more powerful and mysterious he has to be to make the enemy suspicious and afraid to act freely, so that Xu Xian can eat hundreds of Du family troops bit by bit.
In fact, Dewey's wisest choice was to bring all the Du Jiajun into the formation. When the Du Jiajun were everywhere in the formation, whatever moves Xu Xian, Jiulian, and Chen Changxing wanted to make could not escape the eyes and ears of the Du Jiajun, and there would be no chance. .
There is no control center in the Eight Arrays of Taiyi Cave. All changes require moving the corresponding stones according to the rules.
If the Taiyi Cave is full of Du Jiajun, Xu Xian, Jiulian, and Chen Changxing will not be able to move the stones easily. If the Du Jiajun discovers the secret of the formation change, the three of them will be doomed.
Xu Xian wanted to make Dewey suspicious and not dare to make a desperate move.
Killing people can scare Dewey. Xu Xian's first goal is to kill Captain Zhou and his team members and give Dewey eleven heads as a meeting gift.
When Captain Zhou walked to the middle of the cave and saw passages in all directions and couldn't decide which one to choose, a "rolling" sound sounded and the cave space changed, leaving only a long and narrow passage with both sides blocked. .
"These stones were moved from other places, which means they can be moved. If we move the stones, the road will be clear."
Captain Zhou immediately found the key to breaking the formation.
If you don't understand the Eight Formation Diagram and don't move the stones according to the rules, you won't be able to trigger subsequent changes. However, the surrounding stones are stacked together randomly and are not inseparable.
Several team members tried it a few times and found that the stones could be moved.
One person said:
"These stones are too loose and can be moved without any effort. There must be a trap behind the stones and cannot be moved easily."
Captain Zhou also felt that there was something wrong with the stone, but they couldn't do nothing.
Captain Zhou hesitated for a moment, pointed to the largest stone blocking the entrance of the passage and said:
"You two try to lift the stone away. Slowly. If you find something is wrong, step back immediately."
The two of them lifted the stone as instructed and slowly stepped back.
Captain Zhou and others were also paying close attention, ready to deal with possible dangers at any time.
However, nothing happened until the stone was completely moved into the passage. Behind the stone was another stone.
"Poof! Poof!"
Two dull voices passed by, and two screams rang out.
"Everyone, be careful. Try to stand in the middle of the passage and don't move to the side to avoid being attacked."
Captain Zhou shouted loudly.
The two team members fell in a pool of blood. They were standing by the passage. Two knives protruded from the cracks in the rocks. One was stabbed in the abdomen, and the other was stabbed through the heart.
"Roll! Roll!..."
"Poof! Poof!"
"Everyone, get down!"
Captain Zhou's furious voice sounded again.
There were two cracks in the roof of the cave, and two knives stuck out. One person was beheaded, and a hole was broken in the head of another person. Red and white blood flowed all over the floor.
In just a few breaths, four people were reduced from the team, and a sense of fear rose from the bottom of their hearts. The few people squatting on the ground were trembling, their eyes were filled with fear, and they were covered in cold sweat, as if death would come at any time.
Captain Zhou looked calm on the surface, but felt uncertain in his heart. His forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and there was a hint of confusion in his eyes.
