Chapter 24 Puppet Stone Statue

Others were frightened, but Pi Yingxiong was in pain. He had spent countless efforts to tame the little monkey and the leopard, and they had lived together for many years. The two tamed animals were not only his great help, but also his closest relatives besides his daughter. In just a few days, they both died in this secret place. The pain can be imagined.

But since they were dead, it was useless to be in pain. The most urgent thing was to see if there was any danger in front of them. It was okay to die. He had paid so much for everyone, and it was time for others to take the lead. The next time there was danger, it would be time for others to go ahead.

The stone statue stepped on the little monkey and then retreated. It was not known whether they did not see Hu Zhensong and the others, or because of the task restrictions, they could only guard the gate.

Hu Zhensong observed for a long time, but couldn't think of any useful solution. He turned his head and asked, "Master Songhe, can you deal with this stone statue?"

Songhe Taoist shook his head and said, "If there are two people with equal strength, even if I can't beat them together, I have enough confidence to escape. If I can lead one away, I have enough confidence to defeat the rest, but I have no way to deal with these two stone statues."

The speed of the stone statue is not particularly fast, just like Du Chengjin and Qian Banxian. Masters like Hu Zhensong and Songhe Taoist can dodge the kick of the stone statue just now with precautions. If the two stone statues attack at the same time, they can't deal with it.

The stone statue is extremely powerful and extremely strong. Ordinary means can't hurt it at all. Facing the stone statue, you can only passively dodge, but you can't fight back. Moreover, the two stone statues guard the narrow area at the door. With mutual cooperation, it is even more difficult to deal with.

"Where is Master Kongji?" Hu Zhensong asked again.

Master Kongji thought for a moment and said, "My Kaishan Palm is known to be able to split a stone tablet, but that is when I hit a static stone tablet with all my strength, and one palm can make a crack, two palms can break the stone, and three palms can completely shatter it. I don't know what this stone statue is made of, and it can counterattack and dodge. I guess my Kaishan Palm is useless here."

If there were two people at the door, there would be at least four or five people with the same strength as them. Even if they were a little stronger, they could win by rushing up and beating them together. If it was a stone statue, they could only stare blankly. You can't hurt the other party, but the other party can hurt you. You can only be beaten and can't fight back. There is no more forcing to be more aggrieved. Moreover, the stone statue is guarding the narrow range at the door. It is useless if more people go up, but it will affect their performance.

These Tiger Zhensong also thought of them. Even the most powerful Taoist Songhe and Master Kongji couldn't do anything, not to mention the others. Even Qingyang, who performed relatively well in the front, couldn't think of any good ideas. Only after solving the two stone statues can we further find a way to open the stone door. Now that we can't even solve the two stone statues, there is no chance to open the stone door. Are we going to return empty-handed?

At this time, Du Chengjin said: "Boss Hu, I have thought of a way to deal with these two stone statues, but I haven't tried it yet, so I don't know if it will work."

"Really? You have a way? Tell me!" Hu Zhensong was already desperate, but he didn't expect that Du Chengjin, who was not strong and had a broken arm, said he had a way.

Du Chengjin said: "When we rob tombs, we often encounter excavation and blasting, such as sealed stone doors or fallen stone gates, so thunder bombs are also a must-have for us tomb robbers. My thunder bombs are carefully made by myself, and the effect is better than others. If the stone statue is made of ordinary stone, it should be able to blow it up. But these stone statues can move, and I only have three thunder bombs. I don't know if it will work."

That's right, the stone statue can't just stand there and wait to die. If you throw the thunder bomb over, if the stone statue dodges, wouldn't it be a waste of a thunder bomb? In such a secret place, you have to save everything, because there is no place to replenish it after it is used up.

"Hahaha, this is easy. I collected some special gum some time ago. After burning it, it has extremely strong stickiness. You can put some on your thunderbolt and stick it directly on the stone statue, right?" Songhe Taoist laughed.

"Yes, I think the stone statue is clumsy and the cooperation between them is not tacit. If you stick the thunderbolt on the back of the stone statue, they will definitely not be able to take it off." Qingyang said beside him.

Three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang. Everyone brainstormed and found a way to deal with the stone statue. Du Chengjin is an expert in tomb robbery, so he prepared thunderbolts, and Songhe Taoist wandered around the world, cheating and deceiving, so he had something unpopular like strong gum. Fortunately, Hu Zhensong found them all, otherwise he would be helpless.

After discussing the plan, everyone started to work. Du Chengjin took out two thunder bombs, and Taoist Songhe also took out a piece of gum. After melting the gum with a fire stick, he smeared it on the outside of the thunder bomb, and then opened the protective cover of the thunder bomb. The preparations were done.

The rest was much simpler. Taoist Songhe and Master Kongji each took one thunder bomb. They quietly came behind the stone statue, stuck the thunder bomb on the stone statue, and then used the light body technique to retreat quickly. The two of them had the highest skills, and they secretly performed it from behind. When the stone statue turned around, they had retreated two feet away.

At the same time, the two men each fired a stone, which hit the thunderbolt on the back of the stone statue. The protective cover of the thunderbolt had been opened, and it would explode with a slight vibration, not to mention being hit by two masters with stones. There were only two loud bangs, and the backs of the two stone statues exploded, and then fell to the ground with a plop.

When the smoke around them dissipated, everyone looked at the two stone statues on the ground. One of them had a bowl-sized hole on its back, and a cyan crystal fell out. The stone statue fell to the ground and could not move. The hole on the back of the other one was slightly smaller, but the cyan crystal inside was also exposed, but it did not fall out, and the stone statue was still struggling.

The people present were all veterans. Although they did not know what the cyan crystal was used for, they could judge that the function of the crystal should be to provide energy for the puppet stone statue.

To take advantage of his weakness, Hu Zhenhua immediately used two flying knives to slash the hole on the back of the stone statue, knocking the blue crystal stone to the ground. After that, the stone statue trembled twice and stopped moving completely.

Finally, the task was completed. Hu Zhenhua took two tentative steps forward and came to the side of the stone statue. After confirming that the two stone statues were really dead and would not come back to life, he bent down to pick up the two blue crystal stones on the ground and brought them back to Hu Zhensong.
