Thinking of this, Wen Xiaoyun's eyes suddenly lit up. She picked up a branch beside her, snapped it out of it, and added it to the roaring bonfire. Her eyes were burning and she said thoughtfully: "Can these two doubts be solved?"
There is only one conjecture that has been explained clearly."
This time it was She Pi's turn to look at Wen Xiaoyun, "What speculation?"
Wen Xiaoyun picked up another wooden stick and fiddled with the half-burned firewood, "The mechanism that can instantly split a wooden boat into two is not a new one. It should have been set up by Wen Xiangjiao to prepare for Senior She's ambush.
Since they can ask Senior She to devise various murderous plots, they must value Senior She's abilities very much.
As for people's hearts, sometimes the more they value something, the more they fear it.
Perhaps they were afraid that Senior She would regret it midway, or maybe they were afraid that at some point they would no longer be able to control Senior She from working for them. In short, in order for that day to never come, they also reserved a back-up move and a killing move for Senior She.
This killing move is a killing mechanism in the Jiaodao River.
The so-called Jiao Road is bound to be flooded frequently. In addition, this is a geomantic treasure land that Senior She values especially, and he often goes in and out of the river to hunt for water snakes. Based on Senior She's temper and the legend of stealing households' private land, I guess it is not possible at ordinary times.
No ordinary people dare to set foot in this place.
Therefore, as long as it is set up concealed enough, the mechanism used to deal with Senior She can be maintained for a long time."
She Pi couldn't help stroking his beard again, and asked thoughtfully: "The little girl said that the people from Wenxiang Cult followed Bai Wazi all the way, and while Bai Socks entered the ship to chat with us, they directly opened the ready-made mechanism, okay?
To avoid Bai Wazi’s eyes and ears?”
Wen Xiaoyun pursed her lips and continued to enjoy the warmth of the bonfire for a while before saying in a leisurely manner: "Not necessarily, all the officers around Brother Bai are not jealous. At that time, we entered the ambush, not far from them,
It will definitely be discovered.”
She Pi tilted his head, "How can I start an ambush without reaching the ambush site?"
Wen Xiaoyun stared at the orange fire with a slightly cold gaze, "There should have been people stationed around the ambush. Maybe Yin Nuo and I were discovered by them when we first entered here, or maybe they were instructed by the signals from the cultists who followed Brother Bai.
Only then can we activate the mechanism in time when we return.
This is also how they can wait and attack the newly arrived officers suddenly, catching them off guard."
Hearing this, Bai Yao's face turned a little pale. He asked in disbelief, "What kind of mechanism can be used to cause the roof of such a large wooden ship to be cut off in an instant?"
Upon hearing Bai Yu's question, a picture suddenly flashed in Wen Xiaoyun's mind.
That was the weird dream in which she suddenly fell into a black river of oil.
A flash of silvery cold light suddenly flashed in the dream, and half of the dark ship's shadow was cut away.
This image was like a thunderbolt, instantly breaking through all of Wen Xiaoyun's blocked thoughts.
Her brows suddenly jumped, and she thought that she should understand what mechanism the other party used.
She paused unconsciously, then applied force in her hands unconsciously, and the branch snapped with a snap.
She finally spoke and said in a deep voice: "I have never been able to break through this mechanism before. It wasn't until Senior She told me about the topography of the place where the incident occurred that I had some ideas in my mind."
After saying that, Wen Xiaoyun lowered her head and picked up a palm-sized yellow maple leaf from beside her, turned to hand it to Bai Yao, "Brother Bai, help me get it."
Turning around, she pulled out a thin thread from her sleeve.
"Little girl, what are you doing?" She Pi looked at the leaves and thin threads in their hands, looking confused.
Wen Xiaoyun turned to Bai Yao, stretched the thin thread with both hands, and said, "Brother Bai, you are good at martial arts and have strong hands. Can you throw leaves at this thread quickly?"
Bai Yao's eyebrows moved slightly, he was startled for a moment, and then he softly said "Okay".
However, he did not act immediately. Instead, he raised his other hand, held Wen Xiaojun's hand holding the thread and moved it a little away, asking her to move the thread that was originally on her chest out to the open space aside.
Wen Xiaoyun immediately understood Bai Yao's caution and consideration.
Even if it is a leaf, he is afraid of accidentally hurting himself.
Thinking of this, Wen Xiaoyun's heart felt warm.
After traveling to this world, although she also experienced many twists and turns and misunderstandings, she was finally able to meet Yin Nuo and Bai Ya, two friends who took great care of her. She was really lucky.
Although the title of this time travel is to save yourself and don't ask for help, hey, just don't ask for help. But as long as the two of them are around, her heart will be extremely at ease.
Wen Xiaojun's thoughts were still wandering here, but a cold light suddenly flashed in the white owl's eyes over there, and the maple leaf in his finger flew towards the thin arrow.
In the blink of an eye, the bright yellow maple leaf was split into two pieces by silk thread, rolled into the bonfire in front of it, curled up, and was instantly licked by the tongues of fire.
She Pi was so excited that she almost jumped up. Looking at the thin string in Wen Xiaoyun's hand, she patted her thigh and exclaimed: "Oh my, this mechanism is so simple!"
