Chapter 960 Instant Ignition
Looking at the hanging corpses, Jiang Jiyun said with a solemn expression, "This underground boxing ring is obviously not a place that ordinary people can enter. This money probably belongs to those wealthy merchants and high-ranking officials. However, in the end, it is nothing more than the people's hard-earned money."
Sun Jiaguo, standing behind them, lowered his voice and said, "This is indeed not a place for ordinary people."
He looked at the pool of blood and said, "We heard some things when we were here before. Many wealthy businessmen lost everything overnight here, and some even disappeared. Now it seems that they may all be like these corpses, hanging here and drained of their blood."
Jiang Jiyun and his companions had never heard of such a thing before, and a chill ran down their spines.
It turns out that these places specifically targeted not the poor, but the wealthy merchants and high-ranking officials.
Oh! Of course, those simple-minded, poor martial artists might be an exception.
Oda kept a close eye on the Japanese Onmyoji, his gun never leaving them for a moment.
He was secretly surprised that Xiaoyun had made such a powerful poison without their knowledge, while the Onmyoji and the Japanese soldiers were still staring blankly at the spot where they had been standing.
Oda's voice was filled with excitement as he asked, his face flushed, "If we could make more of this poison and use it on the battlefield, wouldn't those Japanese soldiers start killing each other?"
Hearing Xiao Tian's words, Jiang Jiyun rolled her eyes dismissively and said irritably, "You wish! A poison like Ru Zui isn't easy to make. It requires a lot of time and effort. How could it possibly be mass-produced?"
As Jiang Jiyun spoke, he pinched his thigh again and immediately perked up, continuing, "Do you know how many years it took me to gather all the ingredients and poisons needed to make the Intoxicating Delight? A whole few years! It was only with great difficulty that I managed to put together this one."
"If it weren't for the special circumstances today, I wouldn't have been willing to use half of it all at once. Besides, this is really not suitable for use on the battlefield. It would be better to use 'Instant Ignition,' which is fatal upon contact."
Jiang Wenming stood aside, watching the poisoned Onmyoji. They warily looked at the spot where Jiang Jiyun had just been, as if their group were still there.
Looking at the Japanese soldiers lying on the ground beside him, wretched and miserable from the wild boars and dogs, a sense of satisfaction welled up inside him.
"Quick! Detonate the bomb!" a Japanese soldier on the ground suddenly shouted to his comrade.
"What are they doing? What are they spacing out for? Hurry up and get to work!" another Japanese soldier urged anxiously.
"Hurry up and self-destruct! It'll be too late if we wait any longer, they're going to escape!" Another Japanese soldier's voice rang out.
……
Jiang Wenming and his men aimed their guns at the heads of those people. They wanted to fire, but they were worried that the gunshots would awaken the Onmyoji trapped in the illusion.
Jiang Jiyun smiled as she watched the Japanese soldiers scream. She said to the tense people around her, "Forget it. Your shooting is actually a relief for them. Apart from their mouths, their bodies are already useless. They are just struggling before they die. Their internal injuries are not light. They don't even have the ability to commit suicide."
"Then let them experience the fear of impending death and the remorse in their hearts here!" Sun Jiaguo said coldly.
He then quickened his pace, wanting to get Jiang Jiyun and the others away from this place as soon as possible.
As they climbed the steps to mid-air, they saw a person lying face down at the entrance of each small cave, each one dying in an exceptionally gruesome manner.
Sun Jiaguo was shocked and astonished. Only then did he realize that the snakes and insects in the jars that Jiang Jiyun raised were so powerful that they could kill these people.
Jiang Wenming's eyes widened as he saw the sniper rifle at the entrance of the hole, and a wave of fear washed over him.
He said to Jiang Jiyun, "These people must be the Japanese soldiers who were lying here sniping at us. It's just a pity that they were too confident and didn't blow our heads off. They only broke my two legs."
Recalling the scene at that time, Jiang Wenming still felt lingering fear.
Those Japanese soldiers were incredibly accurate with their guns. If they hadn't been so arrogant and wanted to capture my niece alive, I and Jiang Jiyun would probably have been dead long ago.
It was precisely because these Japanese soldiers underestimated them that he and Jiang Jiyun had a sliver of hope and were able to escape from their guns.
Jiang Wenming turned to the two people beside him and solemnly instructed them, "Xiaoyun once said that villains die from talking too much, and that's absolutely true. From now on, if we can take action, let's not waste words, so as not to give the enemy an opportunity."
His tone was serious and earnest, a warning to himself and a reminder to his companions to remain vigilant at all times.
Jiang Jiyun held her uncle's hand tightly and said, "They're not here to arrest me, they say they're here to arrest my master!"
Jiang Wenming looked puzzled and frowned as he asked, "Old Master Dong? What's going on? Why are they arresting Old Master Dong? Have they found out something that's related to him and the others? Did Sixth Uncle and the others conspire to cause trouble?"
Jiang Jiyun shook his head, pointed at Jiang Wenming with his other finger, and said with a smile, "They're not looking for Master Dong, they're looking for you!"
Jiang Wenming gaped in astonishment, asking incredulously, "Ah! When did I become your master? Where did they get this information?"
Before Jiang Jiyun could answer, her gaze was suddenly drawn to a hole above her.
Something golden seemed to flicker in the hole, and Jiang Jiyun's eyes lit up immediately.
Jiang Jiyun didn't have time to explain to her uncle. She turned around and ran towards the cave entrance, shouting as she ran, "I'll tell you about this after we get out. We need to get moving now!"
Xiao Tian and his friends saw a half-open stone door, and something seemed to be glittering at the entrance.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a gold bar!
Could it be that the gold bar Xiao Cui brought back came from this place?
Jiang Jiyun cautiously approached the stone door and peered through the crack. He discovered four blackened corpses lying near the entrance.
Upon seeing this, Oda raised his gun and went inside first.
He cautiously examined the people on the ground, and only after confirming that they were indeed no longer breathing did he get a clear look at the situation inside.
He exclaimed in surprise to the people outside the door, "Come in quickly, there are so many books inside!"
Hearing Xiaotian's shouts, Sun Jiaguo ran inside.
He looked at the large bookshelves filled with books, reached out and picked up a book at random, flipped through a few pages and started reading.
Sun Jiaguo exclaimed in surprise, "This really seems to be the legendary kung fu manual! This is Wu Family Fist!"
Xiao Tian remembered what his senior brother had said before: as long as he could win the competition, he could obtain the secret manual here.
He originally thought it was just bait used by the Japanese to lure those people into a trap, but he never expected that the secret manual actually existed!
