Chapter 23 Sneak Attack
The black boat drove to the middle of the lake. It was already foggy and white, with visibility of less than two feet, and it could not move forward at all. Guang Chengzi frowned. He had heard that the Golden Toad Island in Tangjiabao was very complicated before. Before he landed, he had encountered a second array. I don't know if there were any more powerful hidden weapons waiting for them.
The thin old man wrapped in a black cloak raised his head. Show a pair of empty eyes. He said, "Hahaha... Golden Toad Island, I'm back again."
Guang Chengzi was shocked. Listening to the old man's tone, he seemed to have been here before. He knows very well how difficult it is to go to Golden Toad Island. I don't know why he came here. Is it also entrusted by Meng Yunhe? Although he can't see how high his martial arts skills are, he is murderous and doesn't know what deep hatred he has with Tangmen. It seems that I don't need to worry too much about this battle.
As Guang Chengzi expected, the thin old man stretched out his palms, holding a few dry herbs in his hand, closed his hands, rubbed them twice, and listened to the sound of Xixi grinding. When it was opened again, it had become a pile of light green powder. Put the powder in the middle of a gaped broken porcelain bowl, and take out several red spiny red fruits, and are not afraid to prick your hands. Five fingers pinch deep into it and bleeding light red juice until the juice fills the small bowl half full. Finally, take out a few bottles of oily objects from the cabin and pour them into them, stir them evenly, and apply them to the torch that has already been wrapped in cloth.
Fold the fire and put the torch on the four directions of the ship. From time to time, the yellow-red flames were mixed with light green sparks, and the white fog around them disappeared as soon as they touched the flames. In a blink of an eye, a few feet of space has been opened up around the boat. The fog is thick, and the patrolling disciples are not allowed to approach the center of the lake. So several people are not afraid of being found. Guang Chengzi wondered, "Is this big array broken?"
The thin old man smiled strangely and said, "This mystery can be broken in such a simple way. Don't think that you can underestimate Tangmen through this periphery. There are 36 arrays in this array, but the eyes are in the poison garden on the island. If you want to break this array, you must break the eye from the island and destroy more than half of the 36 star array around the island. I just broke the fog first. It's not a broken array to find one of the arrays later. Among the steps, you just follow what I said.
Black Panthers don't know how to array. Seeing that the process is so complicated, they are also a little impressed. Meng Yunhe said, "You don't have to worry about breaking the battle. Take a break and get ready to do it." Guang Chengzi saw that the old man was extremely successful in breaking the array, so he watched it. The boat made another journey forward with the help of the firelight. Among them, the reefs are dense, and a little carelessness is the end of hitting the reef.
The black panthers carefully rowed their oars and changed their routes from time to time. The old man in black looks around and calculates the route from time to time. When he arrived at a shallow reef, the old man in black swept away. Suddenly, he was full of true anger and destroyed the reef, knowing that the reef was scattered by him. The fog gradually dissipated, showing a waterway directly leading to the distant islands. The old man in black stood in the bow with a completed posture, allowing the hunting sound of his clothes, and looked at the Golden Toad Island in the distance and was speechless.
Xue Ling and Mo Xianyun followed one after another, but picked up a big bargain. The old man in black was afraid that he would have to escape and did not recover the array for a while. Xue Ling didn't know the purpose of the other party. It was not until he saw the golden toad island standing in the middle of the lake in the distance that he knew that they were going to the island and said to himself, "Is there any treasure hidden on the island?" The woman's strength was originally small. Mo Xianyunhua, a small boat, was full of sweat, and she couldn't take a break to wipe off the sweat beads and chased her along the gradually clear waterway.
There is a three-legged bronze tripod in Tang Wenying's room, eight feet in diameter, shaped like a wine master, with a raised round cover upstream. The periphery of the tripod is painted with mountains and rivers, turtles, birds, snakes and other figures. There is a copper column in the center of the object, with eight passages next to the pillar, as well as the ingenious mechanism of spring. The outside of the tripod is arranged with eight faucets according to the eight directions of "east, south, west, north, southeast, northeast, southwest and northwest". Each faucet contains one of the same request, facing the faucet, and the eight golden toads below hold their heads and mouths are ready to receive the same ball. This is the eye of the whole array!
At this time, with a soft "collapse", the copper ball in the mouth of the northwest dragon head fell down and fell impartially into the mouth of the toad below. The toad was stationary and was under the gravity of the copper ball. It sank down a little, and then turned to the right. It just touches the gasket of the base. Driving a series of gears to stir the sound, like a sleeping and hungry monster suddenly came to life.
"Dong, Dong, Dong..." A big bell at the top of the mountain rang without wind, and the sound quickly spread across the lake. Meng Yunhe's face changed and said, "It was discovered so quickly that this formation is really not simple. Inform the young master that it's time to do it."
The black bear took out a bamboo tube with a thin arm from the cabin and lit the lead. With a muffled sound, an arrow shot from the bamboo tube, bursting out dense fireworks in the air. The whole lake of forgetfulness is illuminated. Although Tangjiabao also has fireworks, it is far less eye-catching than this one. Many people in the city found it and discussed it in private. When the children at the door saw the strange situation in the direction of Wangqing Lake, they could not care about their compatriots and risked punishment. They directly broke into the middle hall and were stopped by a high-level disciple. Daoming did not dare to stop them and reported it directly.
Tang Wentian's birthday was in high spirits. When he saw his disciples break in without even giving a notice, he scolded angrily, "What's going on? Don't you even know about the notice?" Everyone didn't know what had happened, but they all looked at the disciple.
Tang Wuya felt something, but calmed down: "It's time to come."
The disciple whispered a few words in Tang Wentian's ear and hurriedly retreated. Tang Wentian's face changed greatly and said secretly, "Which way can you find Wan Poison Garden? Is the news leaking? Impossible, only a few people know it at this time. No one among them can reveal the news. Where did they get the news?
After the storm, Tang Wentian immediately calmed down and said in a low voice, "I have something urgent need to deal with. Today's birthday banquet is over, and he will set up a big banquet one by one to apologize."
Jun Shuoyang, Pei Yufeng, He Qiliang and others immediately realized that the atmosphere was wrong. It was absolutely not a small thing that could make Tang Wentian not even move his hands and eyes. As soon as Tang Wentian's words fell to the ground, there was already a discordant voice: "The main shelf of Tang Laomen is getting bigger and bigger. Although we are small people, we can't stand on the stage. But I can't help saying some words. If you ask us to come, we have to spare thousands of miles to come, and now we want to send people away in one sentence. I'm afraid it doesn't make sense if I don't give a reason. Some people also feel that this is reasonable and wait and see what happens. No one spoke, and the inside was silent.
Tang Wuya said, "The mastermind is finally coming out. I don't know why my father's face has changed greatly. Such roles should not be possible."
When everyone looked at it, the guests automatically gave way. The speaker is a green-shirted Confucian with a folding fan. At the age of 40, he looked calm and could not see any fear.
Tang Wentian frowned slightly and said, "Oh? I don't know which gang you are from. The tone is not small. Can it represent everyone?
The green-shirted Confucian said, "Small gangs are not worth mentioning. Don't be bold, just stand up and say a fair word.
A big man with a tiger's back and bear waist suddenly stood up and said, "What kind of bird egg are you? You also deserve to stand up and reason with Mr. Tang. If you want to fight, I will accompany Fan Luo to the end." Fan Luo's fists creaked, and the blue veins of his arms burst out, and he seemed to fight without saying a word.
The green-shirted Confucian student seemed to be confident and laughed out loud: "When did the "King Kong hand" Fan Luo also come so close to Tangmen? Although your King Kong hand is powerful, it is not worthy of me to take action."
Tang Wentian didn't care about the immediate conflict and said to Tang Wuya, "It's up to you."
The guests didn't understand why this green-shirted Confucian student dared to make a scene at Tang Wentian's birthday banquet alone. Not to mention Tang Wentian, one or two people stood up casually enough for him to drink a pot. Is there something wrong with this man's brain? The green-shirted Confucian student didn't know what body method he used. He only saw a few shadows passing by, and everyone was dazzled. Only Jun Shuoyang and a few others could barely keep up with him. He was shocked and said, "This man's martial arts are really good. No wonder he dares to speak amplify."
