Chapter 47 Fire Can Give Birth To Earth (2)

  "What the hell, who would waste their time building such a crappy toilet!" Yan Shou said "toilet" and then felt it wasn't suitable, so he quickly changed his words: "What crappy toilet, it's a stinky hole, no, damn it, a rotten hole..."

  Yan Jing Tian interrupted Yan Shou Zhen's words, saying: "No need to say more, this pit is probably left by the people of the Pudi Dragon clan who flowed north ten years ago. I think the owner of this Luma Inn must have a very deep connection with the Pudi Dragon, and he must have known something before activating the giant pit array, trapping us in the pit and waiting for someone to come and capture us!"

  Yan Rong also came over and said, "Master Yan, we can't just wait down here for people to come and catch us, right? We can't dig through the wall, but we can try to see if we can pry open the iron bars!"

  Yan Jing Tian said: "Shou Zhen, Shou Ren, you two, quickly search this room and see if there are any weaknesses! Now the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, I don't know what other tricks they have!"

  Yan Shouzhēn and Yan Shourén were about to leave when Yan Shouzhēn suddenly thought of Huǒ Xiǎo Xié and Shuǐ Yāoér, turned around and said: "I wonder how Shuǐ Yāoér and that little scoundrel Huǒ Xiǎo Xié are doing now?"

  Yan Jing Tian said, "As long as Shui Yao'er doesn't fall into the pit, with her skills, escaping from this area shouldn't be a problem. Fire Xiao Xie is tied up in the house, probably just like us!"

  Yan Song disapprovingly said: "Originally we could have gone quickly and returned quickly, but instead we encountered this strange water demon, stealing what wasn't good, insisting on stealing Zhang Si's things, and even bringing her along to hurry on the road, leaving behind a whole heap of trouble!"

  Yan Jing Tian angrily said: "Shou Zhen, I'm warning you for the last time. If you say such nonsense again, the Fire Family's law will cut out your tongue!"

  Yan Shou shook his head hastily and said, "I don't dare! I don't dare..." As he spoke, he jumped back and felt his way along the wall. At this time, the dust had settled, and the light shining in from the pit was sufficient, making the room fairly bright.

  Yan Jing Tian let out a soft sigh and didn't idle around, climbing up onto the rooftop to inspect it.

  The three of them carefully searched for a moment, and then they heard someone shouting loudly on the roof. The voice was transmitted: "Several brothers of Yan's family! Are you still alive?" This sound buzzed in the pit, echoing endlessly.

  Yan Jing Tian and the others all tensed up when they heard this, immediately stopping their work and gathering together.

  Yan Song shouted in a low voice: "Master Yan Tang! Someone's coming!"

  "What to do? I'll go up and use a shotgun to shoot them down!"

  "Stay still! We are now in a precarious situation, with an uncertain future ahead. Let's stabilize them first."

  Someone outside the house shouted again: "Yan brothers, I know you're still alive! With your skills, this matter won't kill you! Don't pretend to be dead! Respond!" The person who shouted seemed to have a tone similar to Zhao Smoke Gun's.

  Yan Shou clenched his fists and said in a low, angry voice: "It was your ancestors who pretended to be dead!"

  Yan Jing Tian said: "You shut up, I'll handle this!"

  Yan Jing Tian raised his head and shouted loudly: "Brothers outside! What you said is right, we are still alive!"

  Zhao Yanguan lay on the edge of the cave, poking his head down to look inside. He could clearly see the roof now. Zhao Yanguan heard Yan Jingtian's response and turned his head to say to Zheng Dakuan and Qian Zhanggui behind him: "They're still alive!"

  "Keep shouting," said Zheng Daquan, "as we just said, tell them to stay put!"

  Zhao Yanguo lowered his head and continued to shout loudly into the pit: "Yan family brothers! I'm the friend who fought with you earlier! The one who ran the errand! You won't have forgotten, will you?!"

  "No! I remember it clearly!" Yan Jing Tian replied from the pit.

  "A few of you brothers! Stay inside, don't move around, and don't think about any way to escape! You absolutely can't escape! We don't have any grudges against you, it's just that you are the people Zhang Siye wants to catch. Wait until Zhang Siye arrives, everything will be decided by him! As long as you stay obediently inside, we guarantee not to harm your lives!" Zhao Yan's words were swift and clear, like a string of pearls.

  Yan Jing Tian was silent for a moment before looking up and shouting, "May I ask, did the half-grown kid and woman who came with us also fall into your hands?"

  "Haha, thanks to you two, they're also resting in the pit! Don't worry, as long as you don't move, we promise not to touch a single hair on their heads! Everything will wait until Zhang Siye arrives!" Zhao Yanguo spoke nonsense without any shame, with an air of righteousness.

  Yan Zhen was extremely annoyed beside Yan Jing Tian, and said in a low voice: "Master Yan! I can't bear it anymore! Don't listen to them, let's cut the iron bars open, I'll go up and kill them! Rescue Shui Yao and the others!"

  Yan Jing Tian did not heed Yan Shou Zhen's words and instead raised his head and shouted: "Then listen to you!"

  I speak not

  "Don't even think about calming us down, or coming up with any more tricks! If you dare to dig a hole, cut the iron bars or do anything else, I'll throw a fire and you'll be burned to ashes! Moreover, that girl and boy are in our hands, if you make a move, we'll kill them first!"

  "Don't worry, brothers on the pit! Since I said it, I absolutely won't mess around!"

  "That's good! You can think it over carefully yourselves!"

  Zhao Yanqiang finished speaking, got up from the ground, wiped his sweat and said to Zheng Dachuan and Qian Zhanggui: "I've said what I should say! I think they should be honest now."

  Zheng Dakuan hummed at Qian Zhanggui: "You sly mouse, when did you inform Master Zhang Si?"

  Qian Zhanggui smiled slightly and said, "Zheng Dakuan, you'd better call me Qian Zhanggui or Old Man Qian. It's been ten years since I've heard that nickname 'Underground Mouse', it sounds awkward."

  Qian Zhanggui turned around and picked up a birdcage from the ground, pulled out the carrier pigeon inside, tied a note to its ankle, stroked the pigeon's feathers, raised his hands to the sky, and the pigeon flapped its wings and flew high into the air. In the blink of an eye, it flew far away, shrinking into a black dot before disappearing into the sky.

  Qian Zhanggu looked up at the sky and said leisurely: "No later than tomorrow noon, Old Man Zhang will definitely arrive!"

  Zheng Daquan hummed: "Zhang Siye's leg strength is probably faster than this!"

  Qian Zhanggui said: "Zheng Dakuan, we will cooperate sincerely for this period of time, and keep a close eye on here. We must not let them escape!"

  "Of course! Do you think I, Zheng Dakuai, am a man who doesn't keep his word?"

  The two of them walked a few steps away, and people came running over from both sides. One was Jia Chunzi, and the other was Zheng Daquan's subordinate.

  Jia Chunzi said: "There's no one in the house where they live!"

  Zheng Daquan's subordinate reported: "There is no one in other pits either."

  Qian Zhanggui's eyebrows tightened and he said: "Investigate thoroughly! If two of them escape, it will be very troublesome! I'm afraid something bad will happen!"

  Jia Chunzi responded with a sound and turned around to run again. Zheng Daquan's men did not listen to Qian Zhanggui's orders and stood still, unmoving.

  Zheng Daquan said, "Money Old Thief, listening to your description, a little girl and an incompetent little ghost, what can they stir up? What Zhang Siye wants must be those four formidable guys in the pit."

  Qian Zhanggui hummed softly and said: "If it's really as you wish, then that's good!"

  Zheng Daquan was taken aback and said, "What? Zhang Siye still has his eyes on that little girl? Thinking of marrying her as a concubine? A young girl like that isn't worth Zhang Siye using so much energy!"

  Qian Zhanggui said: "We are not afraid of ten thousand, but we fear one in ten thousand. You say, isn't that right?"

  "Alright! Continue searching with the men! Don't just shout downwards, we need to see people alive and bodies dead! If not, then hang down on a rope to take a look!"

  His men hastily responded and ran away quickly. Zheng Daquan thought to himself, "Old thief Qian, whether or not you find them, I will definitely kill you before Zhang Siye arrives!"

  Zheng Daquan said: "Zhao Yanguo, you go too! Keep an eye on him for me!"

  Zhao Yanqiang also hastily responded and ran to one side.

  "Good! Then we two will sit at the edge of this pit and guard the four treasures inside."

  Zheng Daquan smiled and said: "Alright!"
