Of course, even if He Fei didn't remind him, Ives was also about to talk about it. As the only wise person of the Arab team, her thinking level, even if it wasn't very good, was actually basically at the level of Zhao Ping, and she could do it at any time. Remaining calm and calm, she can think and analyze a large number of problems before danger comes, which naturally includes the Shimen problem.

"Well, I agree with Mr. He Fei's concern. We passed through two stone gates when we were traveling through Diling earlier. No matter which side, there are hidden deadly traps. Although the stone gate in front of us is small in size, we still can't be careless." Nodding, this time without He Fei speaking, Avis took the lead in agreeing with He Fei's concerns. After saying that, seeing Abdullah nodding slightly, Avis immediately said to He Fei: "We were opening the first stone gate. At that time, a large number of crossbows and arrows were fired from the door, and the second side of the previous path was an unexpected dense mass of spears. Then this side..."

In order to leave the hall while ensuring the safety of everyone, Ives planned to discuss agency issues with He Fei. However, before Ives could finish speaking, Gao Chengliang, who was looking around because he was too nervous, For a moment, his eyes widened as if he had discovered an extremely terrifying scene, and then he pointed his finger at the other side and shouted loudly: "Ah! Then, what is that!?"

Gao Chengliang's sudden voice made the atmosphere that had eased just now become tense again. However, this time it was no longer the conflict and tension between the team, but the tension brought by the outside world. Everyone looked along Gao Chengliang's fingers and saw the opposite side. Branches appeared, and the seven locust trees in the center of the hall were abnormal. The dense branches and leaves began to extend and grow at a speed visible to the naked eye. Finally, they turned in a unified direction and swept towards the north side of the hall like tentacles. Although the speed was Slowly, but in huge numbers, too numerous to count. At this moment, the branches are spreading and growing, reaching straight towards the people in front of the stone gate!

"ah!"

Such a rare scene frightened everyone including He Fei to their core. This time, not only Gao Chengliang screamed, but almost everyone screamed out uncontrollably. Peng Hu's only eye widened. He shouted: "***! The tree is alive!?"

"How could this happen? Aren't these plants? Why..."

"Ah! The branches are reaching towards us!"

In front of the door, they watched the branches, leaves and vines sweeping in. Except for He Fei and a few other members who had personally experienced attacks by branches, the others were all horrified. This was the first time they had seen plants move, and the shock was beyond words. The language described it, so everyone's hair stood on end and they were dumbfounded. Although the above was true, He Fei vaguely saw Ni Duan in shock. Yes, while others were immersed in the shock of fear, He Fei subconsciously looked at the corpse. Just as he had seen with his own eyes not long ago, although the corpse underground had rotted, it had not turned into bones after all. Moreover, no matter which corpse was said, the corpse was covered with a layer of vegetation rhizomes, and the rhizomes were wrapped in a mesh. The rhizomes are attached to the corpse, and the tail end is without exception attached to the corpse. As expected, these rhizomes most likely belong to those few locust trees. Through the rhizomes as a medium, the locust tree uses the corpse as nourishment, or in other words, these thousands of locust trees The corpse is food and nutrients specially prepared for the locust tree, and the way the locust tree obtains nutrients is by direct absorption! Insert the rhizomes into the corpse and then suck the blood from the corpse!

The evidence was the vine branches that He Fei had cut with his own hands before. After being cut with a dagger, the branches that were originally plants actually leaked out red blood similar to that of human beings. Thinking of this, He Fei understood, and his initial doubts were solved. No wonder these locust trees can grow so big without sunlight. It turns out that these locust trees don't grow by photosynthesis at all, but by sucking the blood of dead people! Due to absorbing the blood of dead people for so long, these locust trees mutated and became completely different from ordinary trees. They even turned into some kind of carnivorous plants similar to piranha. Although they may not have self-awareness , but their instinct to absorb nutrients prompted them to develop a sense of hunting after discovering humans nearby, so they controlled the branches and leaves in incredible ways to catch humans. This...

What kind of locust tree is here? They are clearly ghost trees, a group of ghost trees that can kill people! ! !

And what’s even more terrifying is…

These ghost trees are not natural, but man-made. If nothing else, the thousands of corpses covering the hall are evidence. These ghost trees must have been killed during their lives, and the corpses left behind after death were deliberately buried. it's here,

Then several locust trees were planted. Locust trees are yin and are one of the few plants that can absorb yin. The hall full of corpses just formed a yin-gathering environment, which is the so-called corpse raising ground. The locust tree that can continue to grow and cannot get sunlight can only use the corpses as nutrients. The absorption over the years gradually alienates the locust tree, and finally forms a horrifying ecosystem, and the initiator of this horrifying ecosystem is It is undoubtedly Yuan Tiangang!

In order to deal with the outsiders who invaded Diling in later generations, Yuan Tiangang took great pains and did everything possible, even using Xuanmen magic that violated Tianhe. The purpose was to prevent Wu Zetian from being disturbed by outsiders. He wanted to Let Wu Zetian be trapped in the earth mausoleum forever, and his soul will never be reincarnated. Everything he did came from his overwhelming hatred for the queen!

That's true, but the executor who is now in Diling is miserable! ! !

"Ah! Come here, come here ahhhhh!"

The scene returned to reality, and just when He Fei analyzed the terrifying truth on his own, the branches approaching like a curtain from the opposite side gradually got closer and were about to cover them! Seeing the dense branches getting closer and closer, and there were too many branches to hide from, the crowd screamed in collapse at this moment. In fact, it was not only He Fei who was the first to see Ni Duan, but also other executors who had witnessed the corpses covered with roots. They also guessed the answers one after another. If the guess is correct, once they are entangled and caught by branches, they will only die. They will be penetrated by the branches and suck their blood. They will first die slowly in extreme pain, and finally become a body and feet. The rotting corpse looks exactly like a pathetic corpse!

"Help! Help!" Facing the dense branches that were unavoidable due to too many numbers, everyone collapsed as they had a premonition of the final outcome. At this moment, except for a few senior people such as He Fei, most people suffered from liver and gallbladder splitting and started to panic. After seeing the tree branches getting closer and closer, she screamed. Under the pressure of death, Tao Mei was holding Peng Hu and crying and shouting. Next to her, Gao Chengliang, Chen Shuihong, Osborne, and even Peng Hu and Abdullah all instinctively screamed. He screamed in fear. In fear, Abdullah shouted in panic: "Quick, think of a way, think of a way quickly!"

"What can we do? We are finished, dead!"

"No, I don't want to die, I don't want to die!"

Faced with Abdullah's panicked inquiry, Peng Hu responded instinctively. Upon hearing this, Chen Shuihong collapsed instantly, leaving aside what happened to Abdullah. He screamed at the top of his lungs. It is true that the fat man is indeed very I don’t want to die, but the reality is before me. Facing an extremely large number of branches, leaves and vines, the executor is helpless. There is absolutely no way. There is no self-rescue method to resist the response. As for the supernatural props? No need to think about it, after all, all idiots can see that what is attacking them is not a ghost, but a tree. If it is a ghost, they can use the props to fight to the death, but in front of a group of big trees, the props are just useless decorations Well, maybe as Peng Hu said, they are dead. They are now in a desperate situation. If they don't want to be tied up by branches and slowly drained of blood and die in pain, there is actually only one way, and that is to commit suicide immediately. Kill yourself before being tied up by branches, so that you can die easily without experiencing pain and torture!

brush!

Thinking of this, he ignored Chen Shuihong's cry of collapse. In the crowd, Tang Meng resolutely drew out his dagger. Ives, who had similar thoughts, also pulled out the sharp blade from his waist. Haller, who also believed that there was no hope of survival, immediately put his hand into his arms. Finally, he took out a bag of something that looked like medicinal powder and made it clear that he was going to commit suicide by taking poison! Although the above description is true, He Fei was shocked when he saw the actions of Tang Meng and others. He grabbed Tang Meng's wrist and said, "Wait a minute, Sister Tang Meng! Don't worry, we still have a way, at least we can still..." Take a gamble!"

Everyone knew exactly what gambling He Fei meant. Sure enough, as He Fei issued a reminder, everyone, including He Fei himself, turned to look at Shimen!

Yes, because we have experienced too many traps before, when we discovered the stone door in this hall, everyone, whether it was the Chinese team or the Arabian team, unanimously believed that the stone door was dangerous, and there was almost a 99% chance that there was a trap hidden there. The Shimen was dangerous and hidden with traps, so when they discovered the Shimen, no one dared to open the door easily. He Fei even suggested to give priority to the inspection. That was true, but who would have thought that before they could conduct the inspection, the danger would suddenly arise? Out of nowhere, several scary ghost trees that feed on humans extend their branches.

Catch them, and everyone will be doomed!

Being killed by a trap is death, and being caught by a ghost tree is also death. Since you are going to die anyway, it is better to block it. Yes, compared to being caught by a tree, you will definitely die, and there may be a slim chance of opening the door. Life, what if there are no traps in Shimen?

This is He Fei's true thoughts at the moment, and it is also the only way he can think of to survive in a desperate situation. What is the way? Then bet that there are no hidden traps in Shimen!

so……

Staring at the overwhelming tree branches that were still 5 meters away from covering everyone, He Fei's face was pale, the corners of his mouth twitched, and the veins on his forehead bulged. He gritted his teeth. Finally, He Fei made a decision and walked toward Cheng Ying by the door. Shouting loudly: "Open the door!"

As soon as He Fei finished speaking, Cheng Ying turned around and pressed the switch, pressing the brick representing the switch hard!

As the bricks were deeply embedded in the wall, at this moment, Cheng Ying's heart was in his throat, He Fei's heart was in his throat, Zhao Ping, Peng Hu, Kong Ling, Tang Meng, Chen Shuihong, Tao Mei, Gao Chengliang, Hui Jue As well as the Arab team and others, without exception, their hearts were high, fearing that they would be killed instantly if the mechanism was triggered. However, what everyone did not expect was...

Although the brick representing the switch was pressed by Cheng Ying personally, the scene was quiet and nothing happened. Although the murder mechanism that the executioner was most afraid of did not appear, the stone door was not opened. In the impression, as long as it was pressed, it was destined to go straight. The opened stone door did not open. At this moment, the stone door was still closed and there was no response from the beginning to the end!

"What's going on? The switch is pressed, but the door doesn't open. Why doesn't it open!?"

Seeing that there was no response from Shimen, everyone in front of the door who had been looking forward to it just now was collectively dumbfounded. In their pre-expectations, there were only two results of pressing the switch, either triggering the mechanism and then being attacked instantly by the life-threatening mechanism. Killed, or there is no mechanism that allows everyone to escape smoothly and ascend to heaven. But what they never imagined in their dreams is that the reality has a third result. It is obvious that the switch has been pressed, but the mechanism has not been triggered. The same goes for Shimen. Not opened! .

Why?

What exactly is going on! ?

The executor couldn't think of what exactly happened for the time being, because before He Fei and the others could find out the reason, with the sound of shaking leaves, the dense branches approached them and officially came to everyone, and soon they were like countless winding trees. Wrapping around everyone like a venomous snake!

"Get out of the way!"

As the saying goes, no one wants to die immediately if they can live a little longer. Sure enough, seeing the dense branches coming in front of him, He Fei stopped thinking about the stone door. He Fei yelled to remind him to dodge. At the same time, he jumped to the side. , He Fei was like this, Peng Hu and others who also didn't want to die now also screamed and jumped to both sides, and hurriedly got out of the only gaps on both sides of the stone door, but they also avoided the entanglement of branches in time, but unfortunately yes……

As described before, the branches and leaves of the locust tree are too dense and extend continuously. In fact, even if it avoids the nearest pile of dense branches, the branches are still extending, and now it basically covers half of the hall! So strictly speaking, escaping is useless. Unless they can return to the exit channel immediately, sooner or later they will die.

"Go back, go back the way you came from!" Everyone knows this truth, so as soon as he avoided the dense branches, Peng Hu rolled and crawled into action quickly, shouting to remind everyone while running towards the muddy passage from where he came. , while running wildly, Peng Hu thought he was fast enough, but unexpectedly there was someone faster than him. Just as the bald man rolled and crawled towards the passage, a certain man with glasses ran up from behind and overtook him. He ran ahead of everyone at an incredible speed, and his speed even broke the world record!

As expected of a man with glasses who has always been timid and afraid of death, in times of crisis, Zhao Ping abandoned his teammates and ran away alone. In order to survive, the man fell into madness and ran away under the increasingly fierce will of death. Because he was too fast, he not only Leaving the others far behind, he is now the first executor to approach the passage!

If there were no accidents during this period, Zhao Ping would definitely be able to sneak in before the tree branches chased him. At the last moment when I was about to rush into the passage 10 meters away, an accident happened.

The mutation that caused Zhao Ping and even all the executors running towards the passage to collapse collectively happened:

Hooray! bump!

Ahead, the entrance passage that had been empty due to the decay and collapse of the wooden door was closed. Just when Zhao Ping was about to rush into the passage with 10 meters to go, a brand new stone door appeared from the roof of the passage in an instant. Immediately, it fell from the top to the ground, blocking the only exit, completely sealing this passage that everyone regarded as the last chance of life! ! !

This scene was seen by Zhao Ping, by Peng Hu, and by all the executors rushing to the exit!

Staring at the heavy stone door that suddenly fell down in the passage, Zhao Ping understood in a daze, He Fei understood, Cheng Ying, Tang Meng, Ives and other quick-thinking executors instantly understood the cause and effect, and knew what was going on. It's over.

The brick that Cheng Ying just pressed was not the button to open the stone door, but the button to open the trap. However, the trap was not placed near the stone door as before, but was placed in the passage from where it came. To put it simply, the trap was not placed near the stone door as before. It can be understood that there is a stone door hidden in advance in the roof of the entrance, and the button to activate the stone door is deliberately placed next to the stone door opposite the hall. Once someone presses the wall button that is theoretically equivalent to opening the door, the mechanism will It will be activated, causing the stone door that was previously hidden on the roof of the passage to suddenly fall, and finally completely seal the intruder, trapping him in the hall!

What a vicious mechanism, what a vicious strategy. This kind of mechanism has completely exceeded the limit that ordinary people can imagine. Its viciousness is even higher than the previous spear mechanism, and its control over people's hearts has reached an unbelievable level. It's a terrible situation! ! !

I didn't expect that Yuan Tiangang would be so vicious and understand people's hearts so well. In order to destroy the outsiders who broke into Diling, he actually designed such a series of interlocking traps, each one more vicious than the last, and each one more unexpected than the last. In fact, when the executors passed the first stone gate of Diling, they had already fallen into Yuan Tiangang's plan. Those crossbow arrows were just to make them paralyzed, so that they thought that there were always arrows behind the stone gate, but in fact Woolen cloth? In fact, when encountering the second stone gate, the mechanism quietly changed. After opening, it was no longer a rain of arrows, but a spear thrust directly at the head. It took full advantage of the inertia of thinking, but it was not over yet! As the saying goes, don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst. If the trap on the second side of the stone gate is discovered by an outsider, there will still be a trap behind it, and there will still be a more vicious and unsolvable fatal move. At this moment, this side suddenly disappeared. The stone gate that blocks the passage in the future is a killer move, a sure-fire trap that can catch all outsiders!

It turns out that the brick next to the stone door is not the button that can actually open the stone door, but the button that activates the trap. The purpose is to trap them in the hall. Since they cannot escape from the hall, they can only face death and welcome Those life-threatening ghost trees specially cultivated for killing people!

Everything that happened now was within Yuan Tiangang's expectation. Even though he had died a long time ago, this Xuanmen master who knew Yin and Yang clearly predicted this outcome and designed such an unsolvable killing for them thousands of years ago. Game! ! !

"No!"

Watching the heavy stone door suddenly fall, in front of him, Zhao Ping's flaw was about to burst, and he screamed unwillingly on the spot. Peng Hu and others who also witnessed the passage being blocked by the door also changed their expressions and wailed. Yes, there is no need to continue to explain. , they were plotted, by Yuan Tiangang, who was proficient in yin and yang and even understood the human heart. No matter what they did, the whole process was expected by the master of metaphysics, so they were finished and it was impossible to escape from the hall. In the end, only death awaits them!

"He's from the Gobi! Such a vicious mechanism actually allows us to turn on our own mechanisms to surround ourselves. Is this the so-called digging our own graves? Yuan Tiangang, you old bastard! Even if you die, *** Going to hell!"

In despair, Peng Hu roared to the sky, exploded by the viciousness of the agency, and cursed Yuan Tiangang crazily. Cheng Ying and other executors who witnessed this scene mostly had white faces and cold bodies! But just when everyone was frightened, the crashing sound behind them came again. Looking back, they saw that the dense branches had already turned around. At this moment, they were extending in a fan shape and continued to spread, still approaching at a leisurely speed. Everyone, the recent ones have even faintly touched everyone's body!

"Ah! Back off

, back up quickly! "

Seeing that the dense branches were coming again, and the area was larger and there were no blind spots, at this moment, everyone in the crowd, including He Fei, was stunned. Chen Shuihong, who had been shouting, simply peed his crotch, and was immediately forced to retreat under the leadership of He Fei, and they were all The spreading branches forced him to escape, and he kept retreating. Unfortunately, there was no point in retreating because this place was closed and there was no exit. Even if the hall was wide, there was still about a hundred meters behind, but the problem was one hundred meters. What next? Once they retreat to the blind corner of the wall, they will have no way to retreat. At that time, everyone's outcome can be imagined.

"Brother He Fei, there is almost no way back!" That is true, and it is also true. As everyone retreated one after another, they gradually got closer and closer to the wall. Seeing this, they knew that they could not go around sideways like they just did. Everyone was frightened. In the fear, Kong Ling spoke out to remind He Fei. The other frightened executioners also turned their heads to look at the young man. At this moment, except for the pale-faced Zhao Ping and Abdullah and several other Arabs, In addition to the team members, Kong Ling, Cheng Ying, Peng Hu, Tang Meng, and Chen Shuihong, who had a wet crotch, all looked at He Fei without exception. Yes, when they couldn't find a way to deal with it, out of instinct, they subconsciously pinned their hopes on For this team leader, after all, in their past impressions, no matter what kind of desperate situation they faced, He Fei always had a way and could always create miracles to solve the threat. This is what they thought, but the problem was...

He Fei can't think of a way! There is no escape method that can solve the crisis at hand!

Death is inevitable, and group destruction is basically doomed.

Is this what will happen to us? Could this be the final outcome of our seventh team! ?
