Douluo 2: Miss Noumenon wants to be the ultimate villain
Chapter 294 Mechanism
To be honest, even Qingli, who was sober, was not quite clear about this.
These courtesans were too cautious. Not only did they put soul power sealing rings on everyone, they also covered their faces.
As they were being so careful, Qingli didn't dare to make too many moves to leave a mark.
If it was a carriage or something, Qingli would definitely be able to remember the route, but they were using a flying soul guide.
According to Qingli's feeling, they kept changing directions and flew for half an hour before landing. During this time, they were so efficient that there was no communication at all, so she couldn't be sure where this place was.
"Miss Dugu, you are really amazing." Seeing Qingli being able to release her martial spirit in this situation, Xu Tianyin was surprised and a little envious.
"Just barely. I can't use any spirit skills."
With the light, people were not so afraid anymore.
Except for the two princes who did not take any action, the rest of the people were all looking for ways to leave here.
The worst situation here is that no one knows the purpose of those who have locked them up here.
Even though they could see their surroundings, their situation did not change at all, as everyone's soul guides had been taken away.
Without any tools, unable to use soul power, and unable to find an exit, everyone lost their direction.
And after counting the number of people, everyone discovered that in addition to the people who were kidnapped in Qingshui Pavilion, there were five more people here!
For a moment, there was panic in this secret room.
They were all kidnapped from Qingshui Pavilion, had the same experience, and could barely trust each other, but who were those other people?
Was he also kidnapped? How is that possible!
Fear and anxiety drove human nature to become evil. The spectators in Qingshui Pavilion took advantage of their numbers and surrounded the strangers.
A moment later, there was the sound of punches and kicks. "Tell me or not! Who kidnapped us?"
One of the men had been protecting a little girl under him. "Boss, we really don't know. We came here as soon as we opened our eyes. I used to be a farmer."
Several other people followed suit.
These people were indeed dressed very simply and looked like ordinary poor people.
But the wealthy nobles obviously didn't believe it. One of the middle-aged men, who looked a bit sinister, spat and said, "Keep beating. I don't believe we can't get the answer!"
After a while, they were out of breath.
Some people were worried and said, "We'd better not make any big moves. This sealed box doesn't even have a vent. If we continue like this, we might suffocate to death."
The people around were at a loss for a moment, and they all looked at Xu Tianyuan, "Third Prince, what do you say we should do?"
Several of them came to Qingshui Pavilion with Xu Tianyuan. As the most distinguished person among them, they naturally had to ask for his opinion.
To Qingli, their worries just now were completely groundless. They had already been here for two hours. If this place was really airtight, they would have suffocated to death in their sleep and there would be no way they would wake up.
The reason why they felt out of breath and had difficulty breathing after moving for a while was obviously because they lived a life of luxury in their daily lives, and this little amount of exercise made them physically exhausted.
Xu Tianyuan looked at the strangers, then turned his gaze to his sixth brother Xu Tianyin, "Continue, they are the most suspicious ones now!"
After saying this, he fixed his eyes on Xu Tianyin, "Xu Tianyin, was this incident today done by my good seventh brother? It's a good deal to exchange you for me."
Even Xu Tianyuan looked down on Xu Tianyin, so it was no wonder that Juzi thought so too. This had become a fact recognized by everyone in Mingdu.
The two of them belong to two different camps, and the current approach is too extreme. No one will benefit from mutual destruction, which is not something that can be achieved in party struggles.
Xu Tianyin looked at his third brother with his innocent eyes, "Third brother, why do you think so? We are brothers after all, how could my seventh brother kill you?"
Xu Tianyuan sneered, "You are so ridiculous. What kind of family affection do you want when you are born in a royal family? Xu Tianyang will not attack his brothers? Then how did the second brother die!"
"Didn't Brother Huang fall off the cliff accidentally?" Xu Tianyin looked as if he had never doubted this matter.
"Xu Tianyin, I can only believe that this matter has nothing to do with you." Xu Tianyuan said viciously, "Second brother has the same martial spirit as you. He is the most talented one among us. He has practiced martial arts since he was a child and is a more talented general than fifth brother. How could someone like him fall off a cliff?"
The private conversation between the two of them became increasingly serious. "But this doesn't prove that it was Seventh Brother who did it, right?"
"That is the territory of Lord Glory, a branch of the Sun Clan. How could it have nothing to do with Xu Tianyang?" Xu Tianyuan tapped Xu Tianyin's shoulder. "So, anyone can ascend to the throne, except Xu Tianyang!"
Qingli had heard from Juzi about this matter. The death of the second prince was the beginning of their party struggle. It was also because of this that Xu Tianyuan stood on the side of the eldest prince.
While the two princes were still arguing, a scream suddenly came from the other side, "Don't move that chain!"
It turned out that the group of wealthy businessmen strangled one of the men by the neck with the chain in their hands, which was obviously a more labor-saving way of torture.
Naturally, no one believed the words of these suspicious poor people, but the next second, as the two sides tore at each other, a rustling sound of breaking through the air was heard!
Qing Li frowned. This sound was lighter than that of an arrow. It should be a hidden weapon like a bone-piercing needle.
The man who was being strangled by the chains was prepared. When he felt the force weakening, he immediately fell to the ground.
The middle-aged man who was strangling someone with a chain fell to the ground the next second.
His face was revealed in front of everyone. The man's face was covered in blood, and long needles were all over his body!
His terrifying appearance frightened everyone. Qing Li shouted, "There are still more! Disperse!"
As she spoke, she rushed forward, but the chains on her feet slowed her movements.
Qingli rolled up the iron chain in his hand and blocked most of the dense hidden weapons, and everyone dispersed to both sides.
Only Xu Tianyin looked a little depressed because of the previous conversation, and when Juzi behind him reminded him, it was already too late.
Xu Tianyin, a prince, immediately pushed away Juzi beside him, and then himself.
Although they dodged most of them, three thin needles still pierced Xu Tianyin's face, and one directly pierced his left eye!
After the crisis was over, Juzi stood up again and went to help Xu Tianyin up from the ground. "Your Highness, how could you get hurt just to save me?"
Xu Tianyin's expression was clearly a bit painful. He immediately pulled out the long needles from his face. Each one was stained with his blood. "I'm fine. If I hadn't insisted on taking you to Penglai Island, you wouldn't have been implicated by me."
Servants were not allowed to go along with the guests on this island, and the beauty of the courtesan was only for the guests to admire.
This was the reason why Qingli did not bring Fengyue Wushuang, and Xu Tianyin did not seem to have much of a master-servant relationship with Juzi, so his willful and indulgent look came up again. He insisted that Juzi was his sister and forcibly brought her along.
I didn't expect that such a thing would happen later. Looking at Orange's appearance, she should be completely unaware of this matter, so it's hard to say who is the mastermind behind it.
Qing Li carefully examined the needles and the people who were hit. The penetrating ability of these needles was not strong. The reason why he died instantly was because they were poisoned.
This person died on the spot, and Qingli could do nothing about it.
All she could do was take off her loose coat and cover his body.
Qing Li moved closer to the wall and observed it carefully. The needles just now were shot out from the wall at the corresponding position of the dead man.
In other words, this was specifically aimed at him, or because he moved the chain.
Qingli already knew there was a mechanism on this metal wall because there is ventilation here.
But she thought these agencies should be related to exports, so how could they be this kind of agencies?
While Qingli was observing, the rest of the people became even more panicked because of the death of a life.
They surrounded the poor people and asked viciously, "What on earth is going on!"
One of them pointed at a companion who was lying down and sleeping next to him, and said, "We reminded you a long time ago that the chain cannot be moved. We tried to break the chain and escape before, but he triggered the same mechanism and died!"
"Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?"
"How dare we? You all think we are bad people. If I say this, you will doubt us even more."
While they were interrogating him, Qing Li had already returned to Xu Tianyin's side. She took a quick look at Xu Tianyin's condition and said, "Sixth Prince, the poison you were poisoned with was not serious. It is not life-threatening at the moment. But if you continue to delay like this, you may go blind."
Xu Tianyin smiled bitterly, but before he could say anything, another thing happened that made everyone nervous!
Water began to flow into this secret room!
And it was moving very fast, and in a short while it was above everyone's feet. After all, the room was not very large.
If this continues, this place will be filled with water before anyone comes to rescue them!
