Gu Ning walked to the door of the tomb, but she wasn't in a hurry to walk inside. Instead, she observed it from head to toe.
This tomb was very large, about 50 square meters. In front of the stone door, there was a 2.5-meter-long canal. There was no bridge, so they had to jump over it by themselves.
It was very difficult for ordinary people to jump over that distance. Ma Shibiao might be able to jump over it with the help of the five-meter-long run-up, but his subordinates probably couldn't.
Two of them were injured, and the one who wasn't injured didn't seem to be very strong.
However, it wasn't difficult for Gu Ning and Nicholas Le Fu to jump over the 2.5-meter-long canal.
It was unrealistic for them to swim over the canal, because there were many strange things in the canal that directly came out of the water. Therefore, before they had the idea to swim over, they gave up.
Looking at the canal, Ma Shibiao frowned with embarrassment. "Can I jump over it?"
He might be able to jump over it with his ability, but he was a little worried that he might fail.
Even if he could jump over it, he wouldn't be able to get the things he wanted.
It was unrealistic for him to throw them away, because antiques were fragile. If they were broken, they would be destroyed.
"I think you're pretty good at it. Can't you jump over it?" Gu Ning said with slight sarcasm.
Although Ma Shibiao was displeased by Gu Ning's sarcasm, he believed that she could jump over it. Therefore, if he argued with her, it would be a slap in the face.
"Fox, you can go over there first. There must be hidden weapons inside. Try it and come back right away. Don't stay too long in case you're injured," Gu Ning said.
The monster fox was very agile, so Gu Ning wasn't worried at all.
Hearing that, the monster fox jumped over the canal easily and landed on the ground on the opposite side.
The moment the fox monster landed on the ground, arrows were shot from all directions, aiming at the area where the fox monster was standing. There were even more arrows than the ones Gu Ning dealt with earlier.
When Ma Shibiao and the others saw this, they were all shocked. If they went directly and couldn't handle it, they would become a hornet's nest.
On the other side, the fox monster dodged a few arrows and immediately jumped back. After the fox monster jumped back, the flying arrows in the tomb stopped.
The mechanism in the tomb was sensitive. As long as there was an intruder, it would activate the mechanism and shoot out the hidden weapons.
"How many hidden weapons are there?" Ma Shibiao asked. He wasn't asking Gu Ning, he just wanted to know.
"We can only continue probing. The moment it stops firing, it'll be over," Gu Ning said.
"But with so many flying arrows, who's going to test it?!" Ma Shibiao said. The meaning of his words was very obvious. It was impossible for him to go, nor would he ask his subordinates to go.
Gu Ning understood Ma Shibiao's meaning of course. She sneered and said, "Then let's throw something inside to have a try!"
With so many flying arrows shooting at the tomb, she was unwilling to go alone. If she wanted to go, she would go with them. Although she could deal with it, she didn't want Ma Shibiao and the others to enjoy the fruits of her labor.
"Great, let's throw something inside." Ma Shibiao agreed at once.
"Then throw it! Take out the valuable things first, then throw your backpack inside. One by one, it's not enough to test the tomb, "Gu Ning saw that Ma Shibiao agreed, but had no intention to throw anything inside. Gu Ning said in a cold voice.
Gu Ning didn't know whether it was enough to test the tomb or not, but she said that in order to make them throw more things inside.
Hearing that, Ma Shibiao didn't hesitate and told one of his subordinates to throw his backpack first.
The subordinate didn't dare to hesitate. There was nothing too valuable in his backpack. They all had guns, so he directly threw it out.
After the backpack landed on the ground, there was no reaction.
"What's wrong?" Ma Shibiao asked.
"It's too light. Throw another person's backpack inside to have a look," Gu Ning said. She thought that she might be right. The backpack was too light to trigger the mechanism.
Therefore, she threw another person's backpack over. There were some tools in the backpack, so it was a little heavier.
When the backpack landed on the ground, it indeed triggered the mechanism. Flying arrows were shot from all directions, and many of them hit the backpack.
It wasn't until almost two hundred arrows had been fired that they finally stopped.
After careful observation, Gu Ning guessed that every section on the ground was a mechanism for hidden weapons. Once the mechanism of a section was triggered, the hidden weapons wouldn't be shot again when they were supposed to be triggered again.
Luckily, the ground was a nine-square section.
In order to verify her guess, Gu Ning told the monster fox to jump to the place where it had just been. Except for the frame, it couldn't touch the other frames.
The monster fox followed her order, then jumped over again and landed on the place where it had just been.
Because the monster fox came back very soon, the flying arrows weren't finished yet, so it caused more flying arrows to be shot this time.
Although the monster fox could dodge them all, it was still a little dangerous. It was almost shot several times.
After all, there were many flying arrows, and the section where it could be was only about two square meters, so there was limited space for it to dodge.
If he accidentally stepped on the other sections, it would trigger even more arrows to shoot at him.
After shooting over a hundred flying arrows this time, the monster fox stopped. In addition to the last time, there were almost two hundred flying arrows.
Therefore, Gu Ning was sure that there were about two hundred flying arrows in each section.
When the monster fox came back, Gu Ning told it to go over again. It could only step on the section where it had been and the section where there was a backpack.
It proved Gu Ning's guess right. After the monster fox landed on the ground, there were no more flying arrows.
Ma Shibiao and the others who didn't know what had happened thought that there were no more hidden weapons, so they were excited. "There are no more hidden weapons?"
"No, according to my guess and verification, only the section where the monster fox stood and the section where there was a backpack didn't have any hidden weapons. There are still hidden weapons in other places. The underground section over there is a nine-square section. After the monster fox and the backpack's verification, I guess that every section is a mechanism for hidden weapons. Only when the mechanism is triggered and the hidden weapons are shot out will there be no more hidden weapons, "said Gu Ning.
"What?"
Hearing that, Ma Shibiao was displeased.
