Chapter 89 Mysterious Village
"Well, that's the subtlety of it." Kapok admired it.

"This thing simply exists against the sky." Qianye Xue sighed.

"Defying the sky? Almost! But the number is very small, and this is also the season." Why did you build a flint wall here for no reason, and make them into stone gates, isn't it more indestructible? " Tianzhu looked surprised.

"It's as safe as it is here. Haven't you noticed that we have nowhere to go?" Mu Mian raised his eyebrows, and when he mentioned the firewall, he became more talkative.

"So no matter what, we have to go through this wall!" Qianye Xue raised her eyebrows.

"En." Kapok nodded.Qianye Xue squinted her eyes, presumably this kapok not only participated in the mining of flint, but even the flint wall was also involved.

"Kapian, you haven't answered my question yet, why did you set up a flint wall here?" Tianzhu was a little curious.

"I don't know, I was very young and came with my father."

"Besides this flint wall, what else did you find?" "There was nothing here at that time, and Patriarch Locke just asked us to surround this large area with flint." Mu Mian instantly recalled the spectacular scene at that time. What a brilliance, what a pity!

"Wrap it up?" Qianye Xue looked surprised, "Does it mean it's not just this wall?"

"Well, there are five flint walls in total, enclosing a secret room in the city."

"The secret room? Apart from the four walls, there is also a roof?"

"That's right!"

"I see, Prince Locke's body must be sealed here!" Tianzhu said with affirmation.

"No!" Kapok shook her head.

"How do you know?" Tianzhu looked suspicious. "Didn't you say before that when you built the secret room, you didn't even know what was in it! Now you suddenly know what's inside, it's very suspicious."

Mu Mian looked calm, without any ups and downs on his face, and said lightly, "I really didn't know before, but yesterday I heard you said that you were going to cut off King Locke's arm, so I guessed that this is the arm you want to cut off."

"You only have fire vines?" Tianzhu realized instantly, and was shocked by Kapok's sensitivity.

"Ah."

"Why not Prince Locke?"

"Without the patriarch of the Locke family and those who participated in the construction of this secret room, no one else would even be able to find the entrance."

"So at that time Prince Locke was in a coma, and the man-eating tree naturally couldn't be opened. Since the man-eating tree said that Prince Locke had been put into the coffin, it means that the coffin of the ancestors of the Locke family is definitely not in this secret room." Qianye Xue smiled. .

"That's right!"

"Since you were lucky enough to witness the construction of the secret room back then, you must know how to open the secret room?" Qianyexue raised her eyebrows, "Please open it if you are troublesome." Mu Mian didn't refuse, and went forward directly. He is now in a hurry Back in town, naturally she would not reject Qianye Xue.

Qianye Xue also expected this, so she opened her mouth.I saw Kapok took out a fire pocket from his arms and threw it directly on the wall.

"Boom!" The entire wall quickly burst into flames, and the flint had just started to burn, so the flames were not high, only one palm.

"Where is the door?" Qianye Xue poked her head out from the stone doorway, observing the flint wall that was added for no reason.

"Front!" Kapok pointed to the front.Qianyexue looked in the direction kapok pointed, seeing a sea of ​​flames, there was no door, so she could only endure the heat and walk forward.As soon as she stepped into the stone gate, the heat that rushed towards her almost made her faint.

Originally, the temperature of the flint wall was extremely high, but now a wall of flames sprang out, it was really unbearable.When everyone saw Qianye Xue entered again, they also followed.

"It's really hot!" Gong Yueming tugged at the clothes on her body.The distance between the flint wall and the stone wall is only more than 1 meter, so everyone walks along the aisle close to the stone wall and walks forward quickly. If you stay here for a minute, it will catch fire.

After walking for about 10 minutes, Qianyexue noticed that there was a place on the wall not far in front that was not on fire, so she was sure that it was the door.Qianye Xue couldn't help feeling, "The Locke family is really smart."

"Ordinary people have to think about it when they are burned by the wall." Tianzhu wrinkled his nose.

"What's more, the way to find the door turned out to be to light a fire. Even if someone accidentally lit this wall, they would never expect a stone door inside, and most of them would be traps or blind spots." Qianye Xue smiled.There was no mechanism at the Shibi Gate, only a latch. Mu Mian stepped over Qianye Xue, took out a sword, and pried the latch open.

"Aren't you a fist fighter?" Qianye Xue looked surprised.

"Ah."

"How can there be a sword?"

"Aren't you also an archer, and still holding a dagger?" Mu Mian raised his eyebrows.

"Uh..." Qianye Xue choked and touched her nose in embarrassment.Immediately afterwards, Kapok took out a pair of gloves from the package, put them on his hands, and then put his hands on the stone door, ready to push the door.

"Don't touch this stone gate. Although this stone gate will not catch fire, the temperature is very high."

"Your gloves are for burns?" Qianye Xue's eyes were shining, and she looked at Kapok enthusiastically.

"En. Don't be envious, the small town also has this material." Mu Mian pouted, a little unable to stand Qianye Xue's over-enthusiasm.

"Still going through special procedures?" Qianye Xue teased.

"Well, this technology is also in the hands of the indigenous townspeople." The corners of Mu Mian's mouth curled up.Hmph, Qianye Xue snorted coldly, this Lord God really takes care of his people.

"Get ready, be careful of the fire vines inside."

"Don't worry, they don't dare to approach here." Mu Mian directly pushed the stone door open.

"I'm going, this is Xanadu!" Gong Yueming looked surprised, she couldn't believe that there was a village inside the flint wall.

Everyone was stupefied, even Chi Baijin's eyes flashed surprise, apparently he didn't expect the inside to be so big that it can accommodate a village, the only difference is that the other villages are open-air, here there are dark The top layer wraps the village.Everyone stepped into the stone gate blankly, and Kapok closed the stone gate.

Hearing the sound of closing the door, Qianye Xue woke up instantly, and looked at Mu Mian in surprise. This guy really has the strength to maintain a paralyzed face in such a mysterious village.

"Huoteng Village, the name is really straightforward." Qianye Xue smiled.She never thought that it would look like this when she came in. She was already prepared for a fierce battle, but she didn't want to. It's really surprising.Qianye Xue took a rough look at the village, and it was basically built with stones.

Stone walls, houses, lighthouses, etc., and even the word "Huoteng Village" standing at the entrance of the village are all made of stone.The whole village is surrounded by stones, about ten meters away from the flint wall, obviously to prevent the fire wall from burning people.

Strange, is this village surrounded by flint, where does the ventilation come from?Where is the water source?Qianye Xue couldn't help but lift up, air hole?I saw that the flint above the village was not built one by one, but inlaid into a honeycomb shape, so that there was no need to worry about ventilation. The stone wall behind the flint wall should have ventilation holes.

This workmanship is so ingenious, how can it be done?
"Curious about the top?" Kapok suddenly said.

"Well, without support, how did you get the flint wall on the roof? And this honeycomb-shaped brickwork, normal people can't do it at all." Qianye Xue squinted her eyes.

"The town is full of talents, don't doubt that. After all, they are all people who have made contributions to the God of Creation. If they really don't have these skills, they will be laughed at. There are a group of craftsmen in the town, especially the masters of these craftsmen. The craftsmanship is very good and superb, and the townspeople call him a master craftsman, but he disappeared a long time ago, together with those craftsmen."

"Missing?" A trace of surprise flashed in Qianye Xue's eyes, and then a flash of understanding, "I'm afraid it's not just as simple as missing."

"Well, I suddenly saw this patchwork village today, and I probably guessed where they are."

"Go in and have a look!" Chi Baijin's eyes flashed, and he went in first, and everyone immediately followed, thinking that those people were locked here.

"Crack!" A small ball made of fine rattan rolled to Chi Baijin's feet, and a four or five-year-old boy ran over immediately.The little boy picked up the ball, suddenly found a pair of big feet, raised his head immediately, screamed violently, and ran away immediately.

"Pfft..." Qianye Xue couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing.Chi Baijin looked at Qianye Xue with deep eyes, Qianye Xue immediately stopped laughing and looked away with a guilty face.Hey, what's she afraid of? Obviously he scared the child away, so it's none of her business.

Thinking of this, Qianye Xue puffed out her chest and gave Chi Baijin a provocative look.The corners of Chi Baijin's mouth curled up, and a faint smile appeared in his eyes.Uh, Qianye Xue rolled her eyes, feeling agitated in her heart.Qianye Xue and the others hadn't walked a few steps when they heard footsteps.

I saw the little boy dragging a middle-aged woman and running towards them, "Mother, mother, look, outsiders, outsiders!"

"Xiaoxi, run slowly. Hey, it's really an outsider! Ah!" The middle-aged woman exclaimed when she saw Qianyexue and the others, and then she was full of joy, "Xiaoxi, hurry... hurry up and inform the village chief, I will Go inform others." After the middle-aged woman explained, she turned and ran.

"Should we continue to move forward? Or wait for people to watch?" Gong Yueming's mouth curled up, with a playful smile on his face.

"I think you want to scare people!" Qianye Xue narrowed her eyes. "That's exactly what I mean." Gong Yueming smiled sinisterly.

"Come here!" Chi Baijin said lightly.

"What a pity!" Gong Yueming looked regretful.

"There are quite a lot of people in this village." Tianzhu saw the darkness not far away, and they were surrounded in just a moment, and let these people look at them.Most of these people are old and weak, women and children, and few are grown men.Qianye Xue's eyes flashed, and she understood a little.

"Hey, what an outsider!"

"Outsiders, outsiders!"

"Finally an outsider has come!"

"This old bone of mine finally sees outsiders again."

"It's the first time I've seen someone outside!"

"Great, can we go out now?"

"No, who can know if they are good people?"

"That's right, didn't the older generation say that those people would help us, but ended up imprisoning us here."

"Yes, they are not necessarily good people."

"Let's not leave, we have finally settled down for more than 100 years, just in case... just in case..."

"Wait, do you think they are those..." Everyone said this, and all stepped back a few steps, looking at Qianye Xue and the others in horror.

"What is it?" Tianzhu looked surprised and took a step forward.

"No...don't...you don't come here!" A young woman screamed, Tianzhu had no choice but to stop her steps so as not to startle them.

"Where...is there an outsider there!" A silver-haired but very energetic old man ran over.

"Grandpa, take it easy, you are already hundreds of years old, why do you still look like a child." The old man was accompanied by a young woman, who had always complained.

"It's okay, it's okay!" The old man waved his hand and continued to run forward.

"Village Chief, you have to be careful."

"Yes, slow down!"

"This village depends entirely on you, the old man. You can't have anything to do."

"That's right!"... Everyone immediately shouted at each other.

"I get it, I get it, how can there be outsiders, are there really outsiders?"

"You'll know it when you look at it."

"Oh." The old man nodded and stepped forward, "It's really an outsider, and it's... the acting mayor?" The village chief grabbed Qianye Xue's hand with an excited expression on his face.Huh?Qianyexue looked surprised. This is King Locke, and so is the village chief. She obviously hasn't contacted them before. Could it be that she has a sticker of the acting mayor on her body?
In fact, it is similar to a post. She accepts this task, and the npcs related to the task will naturally know about it. Coincidentally, this village chief is one of them.

"Let go!" Chi Baijin grabbed the back of the old man's neck and let it go, yes, put it aside instead of throwing it aside, at least the old man didn't fall down.Qianyexue's face was full of black lines, and then she shook her head, Chi Baijin's ability to do this was enough for his subordinates to be merciful.

"You...how can you...move...move...to the old man..." The woman met Chi Baijin's stern eyes, and said a word very uncomfortably.

"No...it's nothing!" The old man kept smirking nonchalantly.

"Grandpa!" The woman frowned disapprovingly, "One look at this person, he is not good, could they be..." The woman hesitated to speak.

"No... no, that little girl is the mayor of our new town, definitely not from those bastards." The old man was angry when he mentioned those people.

"Asshole? Do you mean the person who locked you up?" Qianye Xue raised her eyebrows.

"That's right, it's those people." The man looked resentful, "It's that group of ungrateful things from the Locke family."

"Can you explain it to us?"

"Go back to my house first, and I will tell you slowly."

"En." Qianye Xue and the others went to the village chief's house while observing the village along the way.

"There are a lot of paving stones here?" Qianye Xue was surprised.

"Of course, everyone in our village can hit rocks." The woman next to the old man said proudly, "Although we are not good at other skills, this skill is first-class."

"Oh? Then there must be some expert advice?" Qianye Xue raised her eyebrows.
