Book 1: Chapter 209: Sad End to the Year

Black Glasses' theory was correct, but the architects at that time didn't consider aesthetics and just used the most barbaric method. The crevice on the opposite side mustve been a natural gap in the mountain, which the architects used to set up bronze reeds to conduct thunder and resonance. In order to ensure that these reeds would have enough resonance, they dug out this huge cavity and built a tower.

We could clearly see the statues on the opposite side now, and the decorative carvings in the crevice looked both exquisite and complicated. On our side, there were only the stone beams, which acted like a plank road.

But you could only choose our location if you wanted to go down further, because no matter how long their ropes were, they still needed a continuation point.

As the flare went out slowly, the air was filled with a strong smell of burning aluminum and magnesium powder. Then, an electroluminescent lamp fell down like a meteor. This was an expensive piece of equipment that was used for large-scale exploration. It was a modified miner's lamp that was connected to a braided line and dropped down from above. As more and more of these lamps appeared above us, almost the whole area was illuminated.

We were right below this lighting zone, so the shadow of the stone beams covered us. At this time, I couldnt worry about where Poker-Face had gone. I could only roll under my stone beam and shrink my body, hoping that the other party couldnt see us from above.Follow current novels on novelb((in).(com)

Then, we heard someone rapidly descending and a voice spoke into a walkie-talkie, "Its clear, let the goods go." We heard a lot of ropes being thrown down, and then countless packages were sent down the ropes.

I secretly took a look, but because I couldn't see clearly with the backlight, I only caught a glimpse of countless ropes and miner's lamps hanging in the air. It almost looked like they were creating a rest stop, because some people quickly started setting up safety nets and tents in mid-air.

They're wealthy. I admit defeat, I thought to myself. Ill never look down on money again. But Ive acquired Black Glasses bad habits, so I must at least live like Jin Wantang.

At this time, the blood-covered Xiao Hua was the only thing on my mind. My hands and feet were shaking, and a murderous intent rose up in my heart. On the one hand, I was extremely nervous because I didn't know whether Xiao Hua was alive or dead. On the other hand, all my pity and understanding for Boss Jiao completely disappeared.

I dont care what this man is here for. He'd better die here.

Black Glasses didn't answer me. I held my breath right as I saw someone rappelling past me. Men in black whom I had never seen before started rappelling down one by one. They mustve been the experts who were hiding in that tulou room with the door closed the whole time. All of these people were carrying 86s, which was a type of non-automatic gun that was very stable. When I entrapped the Wang family before, they used this type of gun. I took a deep breath, fully realizing where Boss Jiaos capital had gone.

He hired a group of Wang family members?

This is so fucking troublesome. We dont have anything. How are we supposed to fight?
