"Well, it's not bad." After completing the inspection, Guan Heng raised his head and said, "This puppet soldier obviously rusts and decays much slower than other similar soldiers, so it can be completely preserved."
"Strange." Pu Xing said with some confusion: "We are all puppet soldiers, so why is this guy different from his companions? What's the reason?"
"The key is that this guy's ancient gold shell is coated with some 'special substance', which has an anti-rust and anti-corrosion effect."
He rubbed the shell and the inside of the puppet soldier with his fingers, and Guan Heng continued: "It's very magical. I can't tell what it is specifically. The method of preparing this thing should be rare within the Yanling Ancient Clan. It is probably someone
It is a private invention that has not yet been popularized within the clan.”
After hearing his inference, Pu Xing nodded slightly: "Oh, so that's it."
Guan Heng continued: "And according to my inference, even the Yanling ancient people who invented this anti-corruption method are only in the experimental stage, because only one puppet soldier can enjoy the treatment of smearing this thing.
Or it’s because the production method is difficult and the quantity is scarce.”
As he spoke, Guan Heng stretched out his hand to gather a stream of fire spirit aura, causing it to spin into a sphere in the air and slowly fly into the power source area located at the heart of the puppet soldier. "Chi yo yo -" the next moment, the aura
It has already been filled up.
"Grrrr..." After a few breaths, the puppet soldier shook its body, making harsh friction sounds all over its joints. Then it slowly stood up and stood in front of Guan Heng.
"Can you take us around the area?" Guan Heng asked the puppet soldier first, but the other party didn't seem to hear him and stood there motionless.
"There is no response to the sound. Could it be that..." A flash of inspiration flashed through his mind, and Guan Heng suddenly snapped his fingers: "There is a way."
"Whoa!" He suddenly stretched out his hand, causing a ball of fire aura to quickly emerge. After seeing this object, the puppet soldier's body suddenly trembled a few times, and then took a step forward.
"That's right, get up!" The next moment, Guan Heng let the fire spirit sphere float above the puppet soldier's head. The guy immediately became energetic and even turned around twice in front of Guan Heng, and then bowed respectfully.
.
"Brother, what's the reason for this? At first, its attitude wasn't so good."
Upon hearing Pu Xing's question, Guan Heng said: "According to my guess, the original old owner left a deep impression on this guy, so even if I provide it with a source of spiritual energy, this guy may not immediately help me.
Used.”
"But I once again released another ball of fire aura that lingered outside its body and attracted each other to the power source in the puppet soldier's body. This will make it accustomed to absorbing my aura, and it will naturally develop a strong sense of dependence."
"So that's it, Mr. Guan is so smart." The ancient cloud-patterned tiger next to him kept praising him. He probably still hasn't forgotten the ancient golden claws that Guan Heng promised him.
"Puppet soldier, take us around this space immediately." Guan Heng waved to the other party to give instructions. The puppet soldier immediately nodded and walked forward.
Just like that, Guan Heng, Gu Hu and Puxing followed it around in the wormwood bushes ahead for more than ten breaths. Suddenly, the puppet soldiers came to a cave whose entrance was covered by weeds and gravel.
"Is this right here?" Hearing Guan Heng's question, the puppet soldier paused for a moment, and then nodded heavily.
"Master Guan, do you think there are any traps or ambush here?"
At this time, the cloud-patterned ancient tiger showed caution. Guan Heng smiled and thought to himself: "This guy was probably frightened by the experience of letting the puppet soldiers capture the prisoners just now. Now he has become more cautious."
Thinking of this, Guan Heng said deliberately: "That's right. Since you brought it up, you should go in and investigate first."
"Uh, let me go?!" After hearing this, the ancient cloud pattern tiger's face turned a little pale. Logically speaking, it is not so timid in normal times, but just as Guan Heng thought, because of what happened just now,
This guy was still frightened, so he was a little hesitant.
"Why are you hesitating? Go quickly!"
"Pa!" Guan Heng smiled and raised his foot, hitting the tiger king in the back. The guy immediately jumped forward and rolled towards the bones in the cave...
"Oops -" In an instant, the screams of the cloud-patterned ancient tiger came one after another. Guan Heng waved to Pu Xing: "Let's go, just follow it."
"Brother, King Tiger will be punished by you this time."
"It's okay. Depending on the situation, there won't be any danger in the cave. I'm just teasing it."
Guan Heng said: "The majestic tiger king cannot be frightened by trivial things. It will be in trouble if it fails to recover in the future. I scare it like this to restore some confidence to this guy and regain the momentum of a fearless king."
"Uh, that's what the eldest brother said." After hearing Guan Heng's words, Puxing thought carefully and found that this was indeed the truth. At this moment, the two of them followed the puppet soldiers into the cave, only to find that it stretched downwards, winding
Winding stone steps.
Guan Heng and Pu Xing looked at each other and almost laughed out loud, because Gu Hu must have rolled down the stone ladder just now, and this time he must have fallen hard.
"Hey, Gu Hu, are you okay?"
"Master Guan, I'm fine." After hearing Guan Heng's inquiry, the cloud pattern ancient tiger climbed up at the end of the stairs and shouted: "This place is full of soft soil and fur-like things, and I didn't fall at all."
oh."
When they heard this, Guan Heng, Puppet Soldier and Pu Xing had already arrived at the end of the stairs. They took a closer look. Just as Yun Wenguhu said, the ground here is all soft earth, and there is also a layer of paved ground.
Thick animal hide.
"Hey, it's quite comfortable to step on. It seems that the owner who arranged this place is really enjoying it." Guan Heng said, looking around and found that the cave was relatively dark. At this moment, the puppet soldier next to him
He walked nearby very knowingly and gently touched the wall.
"Shua, shua... Huhuhu!" It was too late to say, but soon, the nearby rock wall suddenly flashed with fire, and it immediately became a lot brighter. It turned out that there were many torches embedded in the cover of the rock wall.
, once activated, it will be ignited immediately.
"Well, the self-igniting torch is very cleverly designed."
Seeing that the surrounding environment was as bright as day, Guan Heng nodded with satisfaction. At this moment, the cloud-patterned ancient tiger walked around the nearby area, and then said with some confusion: "The surrounding area is empty, why?
Nothing?"
"It's not that there isn't anything, it's just that your eyes can't detect it now." Guan Heng paused for a moment before continuing: "Puxing, go look around, there must be something to activate the mechanism.
place."
"Okay, brother." After hearing what he said, Puxing immediately started to look left and right, paying careful attention.
