Chapter 673: Chapter 655: Not Afraid of this Mountain Cave Collapsing_1
Upon developing such thoughts, Su Pan’er looked at the house again, this time with a more scrutinized gaze.
Upon scanning again, she did find something unusual.
"There!"
Su Pan’er’s eyes brightened, she stepped forward and suddenly grabbed a vase located directly above in the house, she tried to move it but was unable to pick it up. Subsequently, she twisted it, and the sound of mechanical clicking echoed from above.
Everyone quickly focused on the source of the noise, surprisingly they saw the statue of Guan Yu, standing against the wall in the house, moving!
With the clicking sound of the mechanism, the statue of Guan Yu gradually turned around, soon, a dark hole that could only accommodate one person appeared beneath the shrine.
"Madam, you’re truly amazing! How did you know there was a mechanism here?"
Everyone was curious and couldn’t resist asking.
"Stop talking nonsense, go quickly and check it out before he escapes!"
Su Pan’er didn’t intend to explain and took the lead crawling into the cave.
In fact, she wasn’t gifted with special sight, her ability to detect the flaw at first sight was the result of careful observation!
The house was luxurious, but there was a statue of Guan Yu placed oddly near the wall. A statue of Guan Yu was generally used to ward off evil, and its placement wasn’t peculiar, but it was cast in bronze, amidst the dazzling array of antiques, it seemed a bit out of place!
Especially near the statue of Guan Yu, it seemed to be traces left by rotation on the shrine.
After confirming the statue of Guan Yu was the issue, she scanned left and right, looking for control mechanisms. The only thing that caught Su Pan’er’s eye was the vase located directly above in the house!
The vase wasn’t anything special originally, and a few fallen azaleas were even artistically placed in it.
These azaleas, also known as rhododendrons, were blooming during this season. The owner of the house placed withered rhododendrons in an expensive vase, hence it can be inferred, he was not one who cherished flowers.
Not cherishing flowers yet placing them in the house, what could be the purpose of doing so?
Instantly linking it with the statue of Guan Yu, the answer naturally emerged!
However, all this was figured out based on her intuition, the moment she explained it to everyone, it lost its mystique, just like revealing a magic trick.
Su Pan’er was the first to descend into the cave. As soon as she entered, she pressed against the side of the entrance, carefully observing the surroundings. It was silent, and only after her eyes had adjusted to the darkness inside, did she point ahead to the two people who had followed her in.
The two people obeyed and hurried forward, each heading towards a forked path on the left and right.
Only after their figures disappeared completely, did Su Pan’er silently close her eyes and gradually extend her senses.
Her current sensory range wasn’t very far, just a few meters away. As she was considering which path to pursue, a strange noise suddenly emanated from the left fork! Followed by a short, suppressed groan.
This wasn’t good!
Without giving it a second thought, Su Pan’er pursued towards the left fork.
After rushing out not more than twenty meters, she saw a man lying on the floor, motionless.
Without hesitating, she hurriedly moved forward, bending down to turn the man over, and sure enough, it was the soldier who first went in. Unfortunately, there was a small streak of blood on his neck, his eyes wide open — he had clearly stopped breathing!
She couldn’t help but feel pity! What a waste, a vibrant life, gone in an instant!
At the same time, she was alerted inside, such a formidable opponent!
Before she could get up, a burst of strong wind suddenly came from behind!
Su Pan’er didn’t have time to stand up and instinctively rolled away from her original position. But in the next moment, a steel nail appeared from where she had stood and pierced straight into the ground, burying several inches deep, leaving only half of it shaking in place!
Su Pan’er broke out in cold sweat from the shock!
But even before she could turn her head, the sound of air being torn through echoed again.
She hurriedly cleared the way with several continuous rolls, while the steel nails formed a line on the ground, the shaking sound of their quivering only added to the eeriness!
With a bare stretch of cave ahead, there was nowhere to hide.
Su Pan’er didn’t hesitate to climb up, she grabbed a handful of bamboo sticks, she repeated her move without thinking twice, infusing the bamboo sticks with her Inner Strength and along the momentum of her roll, threw them out!
"Uh..."
A low hum suddenly came from the side, following which, the strong wind that was attacking her suddenly eased up. Su Pan’er finally found a chance to breathe, she got up with a flip, and threw out another handful of bamboo sticks...
Another suppressed hum!
The steel nails attacking relentlessly finally stopped.
Su Pan’er immediately leaned against the cave wall to minimize the area exposed to attacks, and turned to look in the direction of the steel nails.
There seemed to be a figure who was clutching his arm and was running rapidly towards the other end among the vagueness!
"Stop!"
Su Pan’er yelled, then quickly followed in pursuit.
The other party didn’t stop, but instead, ran even faster!
Unwilling to be left behind, Su Pan’er gave chase. One chased, the other fled, quickly starting a chase deep inside the tunnel.
The person running ahead kept looking back while running.
Suddenly they gritted their teeth and threw something back from their hand.
Su Pan’er instinctively dodged!
Unexpectedly, what the opponent threw was not a hidden weapon, but black gunpowder!
This realization came to Su Pan’er when she saw sparks emerging from the object, her face instantly turned pale, and she quickly retreated backwards by several meters! It was only after spotting the sudden burst of light in front of her, that she threw herself to the ground, covering her head and trying her best to reduce the area of attack.
Boom!
With an explosion, the earth shook and the mountains trembled!
A flaming snake suddenly shot out from the tunnel, the extremely hot flame licked Su Pan’er’s back.
Su Pan’er felt a burning pain on her back, and her ears buzzed with a mix of various noises! A warm liquid flowed out from her ear canal.
Damn!
This person is ruthless!
He actually used gunpowder to blow up the tunnel, not even caring if it would cause the tunnel to collapse, burying both him and her under the ground!
Bitter rage seethed in Su Pan’er’s heart!
But in the next moment, the sides of the tunnel couldn’t withstand the destruction and crumbled. Soil and stone started to fall from the ceiling, the part of the tunnel that had exploded directly collapsed and was sealed off.
Seeing the situation turn bad, Su Pan’er didn’t have the time to think twice, she shook off the soil all over her body, scrambled to her feet, and started running out of the tunnel!
Meanwhile in the house, everyone was anxiously waiting.
But suddenly, a loud noise came from the tunnel, following which, the ground started shaking! The tiles on the roof of the house began to fall, just like a hailstorm.
