After hearing the gunshots, the faces of the other four players turned extremely ugly.

At this moment, Zhou Fan held the body of the shotgun tightly with both hands.

Then he turned around and said awe-inspiring to everyone: "After I break off, you guys hurry up the mountain!!"

After hearing Zhou Fan's words, the black-faced guy was completely panicked.

He hurriedly grabbed the freckled woman beside him, and then stepped up the steps.

But at this moment, from a certain stone statue on the side of the mountain road, an arrow suddenly shot out, directly piercing the throat of the black-faced guy.

"Gollum Gollum "

The black-faced guy clutched his throat and rolled to the ground, he wanted to say something, but blood kept blistering from his throat.

Then at the screams of the freckled woman, he rolled his eyes and died of complete exhaustion.

Seeing this, the curly-haired man behind him was stunned.

He didn't expect that the mechanism on this path would be so powerful, and the black-faced guy would end up like this as soon as he took a step.

At this moment, the middle-aged teacher finally ran back.

After he saw that the black-faced guy was killed by an arrow, he sighed heavily and said, "It's still a step too late!"

He originally wanted to run back and tell the three about the "bamboo" portrait, but he didn't expect that under Zhou Fan's urging, the black-faced guy walked on the mountain road so recklessly.

"Wake up, wake up!" the freckled woman hugged the black-faced guy and cried heartbreakingly.

For a moment, the freckled woman's cry resounded throughout the square.

After hearing the woman's cry, the bearded man seemed to have expected what was happening, and he hurriedly shouted to Zhou Fan: "You misunderstood me, I'm not a bad person

!" Immediately after, he shouted to the other three people in the distance: "There is a mechanism on the mountain road! You must not rush up the mountain! I am the guardian of this mountain, since you are here to seal the ghosts, I can take you up the mountain!"

Later, in order to prove his innocence, the bearded man directly let go of the shotgun in his hand and gave it directly to Zhou Fan.

Then he took a few steps back and distanced himself from Zhou Fan.

Seeing this, everyone was stunned.

Zhou Fan was even more dumbfounded, he grabbed the shotgun with both hands, and muttered a little overwhelmed: "This person is not a gangster?"

Because many of the bandits and gangsters he saw in the film and television dramas before were bearded, Zhou Fan directly decided that this was a bad guy when he saw the other party for the first time just now.

Seeing Zhou Fan's stunned expression, the live broadcast room suddenly exploded.

"It's laughing at me, just now the bearded man heard the identity of the players as Taoist priests, and he had obviously lifted his hostility, but the puppeteer had to do something with others. Now it's okay, the bearded man is not an enemy at all, and he killed the black-faced guy for nothing

!" "I think things are a little strange! The puppeteer has always regarded other people as ants, and it is really strange that he wanted to cut off the rear himself and let the others go first

!" "What's incredible, this guy must have discovered the true identity of the bearded man!" Knowing that this person would not attack him, he deliberately acted in such a play!".

"Don't be deceived by the puppeteer's stupid expression! It's all his conspiracy! Just now he wanted to use the rest of the players to test the mountain trap, but the others refused to give in, so the puppeteer wanted to scare everyone with the sound of gunfire. And then the black-faced guy died

!" "Hearing you say that, I think Brother Fan can run for the next Oscar for Best Actor!"

After the bearded man took the initiative to hand over the shotgun to Zhou Fan, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, a middle-aged teacher and a curly-haired man walked over together.

The curly-haired man glanced at Zhou Fan coldly, with some annoyance in his eyes.

At Zhou Fan's urging just now, he almost ran up the mountain.

If it weren't for the fact that the black-faced guy was killed by an arrow first, I'm afraid he would have died.

The middle-aged teacher smiled at Zhou Fan slightly, and then asked the bearded man, "You just said that you are the guardian of this mountain?" The

bearded man nodded solemnly, and said, "I am the descendant of the Tianxuan Daoist!"

Hearing this, the middle-aged teacher instantly remembered the old Taoist priest he saw on the screen before the game.

So he continued to ask: "Tianxuan Daoist, is that the Taoist who sealed the powerful ghost in the Demon Suppression Palace?" The bearded man nodded and explained: "Since the old ancestor sealed the powerful ghost in the Demon Suppression Palace, he has instructed his descendants to guard this mountain for generations to prevent the Evil Ghost from breaking the seal!

At this moment, the freckled woman also walked to the crowd from the front of the mountain road.

After she glanced at Zhou Fan coldly, she didn't react.

After Zhou Fan saw her attitude towards herself, her heart was full of guilt and self-blame.

Just now, he had already seen the body of the black-faced guy from a distance, and he had already thought about the whole thing.

If he hadn't been too reckless in urging everyone to flee just now, this kind of tragedy would not have happened.

After listening to the bearded man's words, the curly-haired man next to him frowned and said, "You said that you saw something unusual in the Demon Suppression Palace, which means that you have personally gone up!

At this time, the bearded man walked up to everyone and chuckled: "Actually, the way to clear the mountain road is at our feet!"

After speaking, he pointed to the "bamboo" picture under everyone's feet.

Hearing this, the middle-aged teacher showed an expression that was indeed so, but the rest of the people hurriedly observed the picture under their feet.

The bearded man pointed to the bamboo picture and explained: "You see, a slender figure is the mountain road, and the mountain road is cut into several sections by horizontal lines, and each section is marked with words next to

it!" "For example, the 'five lefts' at the bottom of this road mean that the bottom five steps should go from the left! The 'three rights' in the second section means that the next three steps should go from the far right

!" Hearing this, Zhou Fan suddenly clapped his hands excitedly and smiled: "I understand!" 'Seven', that is, the seven steps behind go from the middle, and so on

!" After saying this, Zhou Fan touched the back of his head, and said to everyone with great emotion: "I can't hide it, after seeing this picture just now, I thought it was a bamboo! I didn't even find out that it was a path clearance map after looking at it for a long time, I was so stupid!"

After listening to his words, the freckled girl seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world, and immediately burst into laughter.

Seeing this situation, Zhou Fan glanced at the woman with some concern, and then comforted: "Your boyfriend has an accident, no one wants to see it, you have to mourn

!" He also thought that the freckled woman was mentally ill because she was too sad.

Hearing this, the freckled girl suddenly stopped laughing.

She looked at Zhou Fan and said sarcastically: "Just now, I saw that you have been standing in this position for a long time and refused to leave, it turned out that you were admiring a clumsy bamboo painting!"

Her words suddenly alerted the curly-haired male god next to her.

After thinking about it for a while, he said coldly to Zhou Fan: "What this girl said is not bad at all! If this painting is regarded as bamboo, it has no appreciation value at all, and normal people will definitely look at it and leave! But if it is regarded as the trick to clear the mountain road, it will indeed take a lot of time to recite the marks on it!"

Hearing him say this, the audience in the live broadcast room suddenly boiled.

"Haha, I just saw Brother Fan wandering around in front of this painting, I thought his appreciation level was very low, but I didn't expect that he was studying the way to go up the mountain!"

"Actually, when I saw this painting just now, I felt that there was a problem. It's just that I didn't connect it with the

mountain road!" "Originally, I thought that Zhou Fan wanted to use other people to test the trap of the mountain road, but now I feel that I am still too young. Unexpectedly, he had already found a way to go up the mountain, but he deliberately covered it and didn't say anything, and let the others die in vain

!" "This person is really vicious! Teammates should unite and help each other, he saw through the secret of the painting but kept silent, it was really vicious!"

Escape in-game.

Under the questioning of the curly-haired man, Zhou Fan spread his hands a little innocently.

He wanted to quibble about something, but he felt that everything he said was a little weak, because the other party had already decided that he was hiding the truth.

Looking at his appearance, the freckled girl suddenly sneered unforgivingly: "Don't pretend to be innocent! Judging from the way you did just now, you are the notorious puppeteer! What kind of criticism is the puppeteer, I think everyone who has just entered the game should know very well! If we get involved with this guy again, we will definitely be like my boyfriend, and he will be killed unconsciously!".

was instigated by the freckled woman like this, the curly-haired man looked at Zhou Fan with strange eyes, and the middle-aged teacher was also full of complicated expressions.

The bearded man on the side also sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere, so he hurriedly took a few steps back, ready to watch coldly.

Zhou Fan looked at his three teammates and felt that everyone's eyes were extremely unkind when they looked at him.

This situation made Zhou Fan a little overwhelmed.

So when he was at a loss, he subconsciously touched the shotgun in his hand.

This action made everyone see it.

The three players suddenly "groaned" in their hearts, and then they all took a few steps back one after another with a wary face, and then looked at Zhou Fan cautiously.

At this moment, the freckled woman sneered and said, "After being exposed to the conspiracy, you want to kill someone?"

Hearing this, Zhou Fan suddenly became anxious.

He said with an innocent face: "I, Zhou Fan, have always been frank in doing things, how can there be any conspiracy?"

The freckled woman wanted to say something, but the middle-aged teacher stood up at this time and began to play a round and said: "I don't think now is the time for us to quarrel, the first thing now is to walk safely to the top of the mountain!"

Hearing him say this, the curly-haired man also woke up suddenly.

Now that the other party has a gun in his hand, it is obvious that it is not appropriate to make a feud with this person.

So he opened his mouth and said to Zhou Fan and the freckled girl: "I am not interested in participating in the grievances between you! As long as you can clear the customs safely!"

Seeing these two people express their positions one after another, the freckle girl was immediately speechless.

Zhou Fan immediately put his mind at ease.

Seeing that the atmosphere had eased down, the bearded man in the distance suddenly spoke: "This painting on the ground has been copied by me, let's set off immediately!"

Hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

So the next moment, the bearded man took out a drawing from his waist.

When I opened it, there was a painting on it that looked exactly like the one on the ground.

Next, led by the bearded man, the crowd formed a long line according to the steps marked next to the picture.

The group walked up the mountain road, and sure enough, no mechanism was triggered.

However, just as everyone was approaching the end of the road with only five or six steps left, the whole mountain suddenly began to shake violently.

"It's not good, it's an earthquake, everyone lie down on the spot!" the middle-aged teacher reminded loudly.

When everyone heard this, they hurriedly lay down on the stone steps.

It took a while for the earthquake to finally end.

The bearded man who had walked in front stood up and prepared to continue on his way.

But as soon as he had walked up a step according to the drawings in his hand, an arrow suddenly erupted from a stone statue on the side of the road, and shot straight at the bearded man's chest.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Fan and the others were immediately shocked.

But the next moment, when the arrow hit the bearded man's chest, something surprising happened.

With a "clang", the arrow seemed to hit the metal, and then it was bounced off the ground and finally fell to the ground.

At this time, the bearded man turned his head and explained to everyone, "In order to avoid being shot by arrows, I will put on my goggles in advance every time I go up the mountain!"

After saying that, he lifted his clothes and showed them off.

I saw that inside his clothes, there was an octagonal bronze mirror full of strange patterns.

Seeing this, everyone suddenly realized.

The middle-aged teacher said with a fiery look in his eyes: "This bronze mirror should be an ancient cultural relic, it looks extremely precious! Can you take it off and show me?"

When the bearded man heard this, he hurriedly covered the bronze mirror with his clothes, and then frowned and said: "Let's talk about this later! Now we are in big trouble!"

Then he pointed to the few steps left in front of him, and said with a worried face: " After the earthquake, the trick on the drawings seems to have failed, and the location where the trap is now triggered has completely changed. Now we have to find a way to finish the last stretch!"

Hearing this, everyone's hearts suddenly cooled.

The drawings failed, meaning that it was impossible for them to descend the mountain according to their original route, at which point they were completely stuck in place.

At this moment, Zhou Fan suddenly chuckled and said, "I have a way!"

Hearing this, everyone turned their eyes over.

Seeing this, Zhou Fan said confidently: "As long as you find a wooden plank, then put the wooden plank on the steps in front of you, and then step on the wooden plank to go up! This way you can avoid stepping on the stone steps and accidentally touching the mechanism!"

Hearing this idea, the people present were dumbfounded.

The freckled woman sneered and said, "Where to find the plank now, are you deliberately teasing us?"

Hearing this, Zhou Fan glanced at the woman with some dissatisfaction.

The freckled woman was standing at the left edge of the stone path at this time, and at this moment, Zhou Fan suddenly saw the grass on the left side of the woman shaking, and a small part of the earthy yellow snake body flashed away.

Seeing this, he hurriedly reminded the woman: "There is a snake in the grass next to you!"

Hearing this, the freckled woman's face changed greatly.

She subconsciously took two quick steps to the right and looked down into the grass.

But at this moment, an arrow suddenly came and hit the woman in the chest.

The woman was in pain, and at the same time saw something in the grass.

There was no snake in the grass, just an earthy yellow toad.

Seeing this situation, this woman was in a plan.

After glancing at Zhou Fan with resentment in her eyes, she slowly fell down.
