Chapter 28:
The walls with iron spears on both sides continued to increase, and they began to close up bit by bit. The four of them hurriedly retreated, but halfway through, Old Hu suddenly felt that his feet were empty and his entire body fell down. The ground collapsed, and Old Hu did not have time to react. His hands helplessly tried to grab the ground beside him.
" Old Hu..." Chen Yuze saw Old Hu's condition at the critical moment. He leaped with all his might and grabbed Old Hu's arm. Chen Zeyu fell hard onto the ground, but how heavy was Chen Zeyu? In addition, he was lying on the ground and pulling Old Hu. Old Hu was much heavier than Chen Yuze. Coupled with the downward gravity, Chen Yuze was directly dragged into the pit by Old Hu.
"Little brother, let go. Otherwise, we'll all die. Let go quickly.”Old Hu also saw the situation clearly. Chen Yuze's body had been dragged out, and the walls on both sides were getting closer. If this continued, Chen Yuze would either be dragged down by him or be skewered by the mechanism. At that time, neither of them would be able to survive.
"Rumble…"
The walls on both sides were getting closer and closer. From Old Hu's position, he could clearly see that the iron spears on both sides were less than half a step away from Chen Yuze. If this continued, he could only watch Chen Yuze die in front of him.
Old Hu glanced at Chen Yuze and smiled.""Little brother, thank you very much. To be able to meet you before I die, this life of mine is worth it. If there's a chance in my next life, I'll definitely be your brother.”
Old Hu gritted his teeth and used both hands to pry Chen Zeyu's hands away. At this time, Old Hu could not drag them down. If he gave up on him, perhaps Little Brother and the others could still live. Old Hu wanted to live, but he could not live on the corpses of his brothers. He could not let the three of them accompany him with their lives to give him a chance.
"Old Hu, don't be silly…Yifei, Fatty!”Chen Yuze grabbed Old Hu's hand and shouted behind him.
" Coming..." Hu Yifei replied. Two ropes flew over. Old Hu's eyes lit up and he hurriedly grabbed the ropes.
Feeling that Old Hu had grabbed the rope, Fatty and Hu Yifei hurriedly pulled the rope up. Chen Yuze also freed his hands. He pulled out the sword on his back and slashed fiercely at the iron spears coming from both sides. In two moves, the iron spears beside him were all cut off, giving him a place to hide. Unfortunately, the walls on both sides continued to approach, and there was no sign of stopping.
At this time, Old Hu was about to climb up, but looking at the wall that was getting closer and closer, there was no other way. Hu Yifei and Fatty had already retreated back to the cave and were pulling the rope. However, because the space in the cave was not too big, they kept shrinking their bodies and could not use any strength at all.
"Fatty, hold on tight." Hu Yifei steeled her heart and got Fatty to grab the rope tightly. She jumped down from the bandit hole and held the sword in one hand. She charged towards Chen Zeyu and the others. It was Hu Yifei after all. The surrounding iron spears were almost ignored by Hu Yifei. Broken iron spears fell to the ground.
" Sister Yifei, be careful. Come back quickly..." Fatty looked anxiously at Hu Yifei who had run out. He wanted to chase after her, but now he still had to pull the rope. Fatty could not move at all.
Chen Yuze heard her shout. Chen Zeyu looked at Hu Yifei and said,""Sister Yifei, go back quickly."
"Bullshit." Hu Yifei came up to Chen Yuze and said,"We came out together. How can I have the face to return to the apartment if I leave you here? Zeng Xiaoxian, that b * tch, is going to make me laugh to death?”
The two of them leaned against each other to block the iron spears around them. The iron spears seemed to be endless. Although the two of them barely cleared a space for movement, the walls on both sides were getting closer and closer. Chen Yuze looked around anxiously. Old Hu had already climbed up half of his body, but if they did not escape, the three of them would still die.
At this moment, Chen Yuze discovered that at the end of the corridor was a door. However, there was a strange arm pattern carved on the door. Why was it strange? The arm looked normal, but each hand was holding a strange compass-like object. At the center of the compass was a strange eyeball pattern.
"Old Hu, cover Yifei." Chen Yuze shouted and rushed out. He wanted to take a gamble. This was not the time to hesitate. Chen Yuze rushed over with his sword and took the two circular plates. He waved the sword in his hand continuously and cleared the iron spears in his way. His agile body moved in the narrow space.
"Little brother, be careful." Old Hu climbed up and pulled out an iron spear from the wall with one hand. He placed it horizontally between the two walls that were constantly closing in. The walls seemed to be stuck and were not closing in like before. Hu Yifei thought it was a good idea. She imitated Old Hu and pulled out the iron spear and placed it horizontally in the middle of the wall.
Chen Yuze got closer to the patterns on the two discs. However, they were not carved at all. Instead, they were compasses made of stone. However, the pattern of the eyes in the middle was incomprehensible. Chen Yuze looked at the compass. There was indeed a pattern of an eye in the middle of the compass. The outer circle was the correct direction, but further out were rows of numbers.
This made him confused. He had never seen such a compass before. He also knew about the Eight Trigrams Abacus, but this thing was not that kind. There was no counting bead at all. It was more like a password lock. Moreover, there wasn't even a single number around. How was he supposed to guess?
"What are you thinking, you piece of trash? Hurry up and do it! Can the situation be worse than this?" Hu Yifei was a little anxious. The iron spears in front of them could not hold on any longer, okay? They were already making unpleasant creaking sounds. It would not be long before the iron spears became short, and they would become meat skewers. They could be roasted directly on the fire.
Chen Yuze turned around and looked at Hu Yifei and the others anxiously. He was right. The situation could not get any worse. It would not be long before the iron spears in front of them broke. At that time, there was nothing they could do.
"Wait? Iron spear…is this it?" Chen Yuze looked at the corridor and had a flash of inspiration. He felt that he was about to find the password.
"Iron what spear? Do I need you to remind me of this? Are you trying to kill me for money? Hurry up, or I'll kill you first.”Hu Yifei was so anxious that she stomped her feet. They were not blind. Of course, they could see the iron spears around them.
" Old Hu, look at the hole on the ground. Hurry up…" Chen Yuze found the key to breaking the situation.
Old Hu lowered his head to take a look and suddenly realized that something was wrong. The situation had begun to be resolved…
