The one who spoke was Miss Hong.
She had followed the Chen family to steal coffins countless times over the years, and she was also in charge of traps and the like.
His eyesight and natural science skills also improved.
Looking at the wooden puppets walking back and forth in the arrow tower, she immediately revealed their origins.
In the Republic of China era, there were countless strange things from overseas, such as clocks and watches, which involved mechanical principles.
However, in the Pre-Qin Era more than 2,000 years ago, the Art of Traps had already reached its peak.
Among them, the most outstanding ones were Lu Ban and the Mo Clan.
The Mohist Art of Traps was also used in large numbers in ancient tombs as a trap to prevent grave robbers from entering.
However, Miss Hong was also amazed at this moment.
A strange light flashed in her beautiful eyes.
It made her look even more beautiful and moving.
After so many years of fighting, this was the first time she had seen such a clever wooden puppet. It had almost reached the point where it could pass off as real.
If it wasn't for the fact that they didn't have the slightest bit of activity, one would even think that they were real people at first glance.
"You can break this thing?"
Chen Yulou was also amazed.
He had seen a lot of strange objects, and he had also heard of the mechanism techniques of the pre-Qin period.
There were seventy-two mountains in the world, and Honeycomb Mountain was famous for its craftsmanship. There was a strange person called Li Shuguo, who was known in the martial arts world as the Tool Keeper Li.
His craftsmanship was extremely superb. He had once created the Vajra Umbrella according to a secret recipe left behind by the disciple of the late Qing thief, Master Zhang.
Chen Yulou had gone to Honeycomb Mountain to put him down.
There was a wooden bird in front of the door all year round. When someone came to the door, it would fly up and chirp.
At that time, he was also greatly amazed.
Later, he heard from Xiaoqi Li that he made it by imitating the Luban bird.
Chen Yulou secretly compared the wooden bird to the wooden puppet in front of him. He still felt that the golem in the arrow tower was more exquisite.
Without anyone controlling it, not only could it operate on its own, but it could also control such a complicated crossbow.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed it.
Chen Yulou looked at Miss Hong and asked.
"This kind of mechanism should be made of mercury. As long as we find the hidden well where the mercury is hidden, we can break it.”
The hidden well she was talking about.
Actually, it was a term used in the art of traps.
It was the core area.
"Be careful."
Chen Yulou nodded and said softly.
Miss Hong wasn't very confident, but she was still eager to try.
"I'll go with you."
Seeing that Miss Hong was about to walk towards the Arrow Tower, Feng Bai followed.
Firstly, he was worried about her safety.
On the other hand, he was extremely interested in this mechanical puppet. He could not imagine how such a flexible wooden puppet was created hundreds of years ago. It was almost comparable to the robots of the future.
Miss Hong was naturally delighted.
The two of them walked past the gate of the watchtower and entered.
At first, Feng Bai was worried that the wooden puppets would turn around and deal with him, the intruder, but he soon realized that was not the case.
The wooden puppet seemed to have received a simple command.
Each of them had their own duties.
Moreover, their routes were specially designed. Although the place was narrow and crowded, they would not bump into each other.
He didn't notice any intruders like them and continued to do his own thing mechanically.
"Let's go!"
In order to ensure that the tomb owner did not leave any backup plans, Feng Bai specially observed for a long time.
He passed through the wooden puppets.
The two of them were very careful and tense to prevent any unexpected situations.
"Found it."
All of a sudden, Miss Hong's eyes lit up as she stretched out her hand.
Feng Bai turned his head and saw a deep well in the middle of the watchtower. He held the lamp and went closer to take a look. Bright silver liquid flowed inside.
"This is the mercury that drives the mechanism. As long as we scoop it out, the entire crossbow mechanism will naturally break.”
Miss Hong took a closer look and then turned around to say to Feng Bai.
"Scoop it out?"
Feng Bai was in a difficult position.
There were no pots and pans around, and mercury was a highly toxic substance. In addition, the fire in the ancient city was raging, and the poisonous gas that evaporated from mercury was extremely dense.
"Then I'll go back and get the items."
Miss Hong stood up and was about to leave.
However, just as she was about to take a step forward, Feng Bai suddenly pressed down on her shoulder. She turned around in confusion, only to realize that the latter was not looking at her, but was staring at the ground under her feet.
"What's wrong?"
Miss Hong's heart sank when she saw Feng Bai's solemn expression.
"Something's wrong down here!"
"Below?"
Following the direction of his finger, Miss Hong also lowered her head, but she did not notice anything unusual.
All the tiles in the arrow tower were almost identical in size, structure, and style. There was almost no difference.
Feng Bai didn't explain too much.
The moment Miss Hong took a step forward, he clearly heard an extremely subtle movement by his ear. It was not much louder than the sound of a mosquito.
But he still heard it.
He was very familiar with that sound…it was the same sound as when the crossbow mechanism was triggered.
"Hug me."
"Ah?"
Upon hearing this, Miss Hong's beautiful face instantly turned red.
Feng Bai repeated," There's a trap under that tile. Hug me."”
Upon hearing this, Miss Hong finally understood and stopped being bashful. She hugged Feng Bai with both hands and pressed her face against his chest.
Feng Bai didn't have any other thoughts at the moment. He took out a soft rope hook and aimed it at the hanging beam on the wooden door that he had entered from. With a whoosh, he hooked it directly.
"I'll count to three and we'll go over there together.”
Miss Hong's heart was in her throat, but she nodded.
"One, two, three…jump!"
Feng Bai shouted.
Then, with Miss Hong in his arms, he jumped out with the strength of the hook.
The moment he rose into the air.
The floor around the well suddenly sank down, revealing a deep pit that was more than ten meters wide.
At the bottom of the deep pit, there were countless spears buried. After hundreds of years, they were still flickering with cold light!
