C362 Primordial Mechanism
Therefore, how could he not follow behind Zhao Yingying when he understood this point?
This world was still so beautiful. He still had a brother-in-law to worry about, so he couldn't just die without knowing why.
Besides, if he really died here, even if word of that got out, it wouldn't be pleasant! Otherwise, in a better legend, Ye Chen would be unable to beg a master teacher for help.
If he didn't listen carefully, he would turn into Ye Chen with inferior ability. He challenged the other party to a duel and died in the bamboo forest near the entrance before he could even enter...
Ye Chen felt embarrassed just thinking about it, but at this moment, Zhao Yingying had already started to move forward.
Ye Chen was anxious, so he directly followed her.
However, in this moment of anxiety, the pace of his feet changed. This change was definitely an accident!
Ye Chen stepped on an unknown object and his arm also touched a bamboo joint that could move at the side.
As soon as the bamboo joints and the mysterious item beneath her feet were touched, the entire bamboo forest was once again filled with crackling sounds. Zhao Yingying's expression immediately changed. "What did you do just now?"
Ye Chen's face also turned very serious: "If I knew what I was doing, I wouldn't be so flustered!"
With that, he pushed Zhao Yingying out.
Whatever it was, it was most likely some kind of secret organization news. In short, it could potentially lead to someone's death. Now that Zhao Yingying was by his side, what should she do if it involved her?
Zhao Yingying had just left the place where she was standing when she heard a whizzing sound. A bamboo tube with its head sharpened and polished directly flew towards Ye Chen.
Ye Chen quickly shouted, "Watch your side, don't worry about me!"
However, in just one or two seconds, the bamboo tube had already arrived in front of Ye Chen, along with the whistling sound of the wind.
With a flash of cold light, the saber was unsheathed and returned to its original position.
Zhao Yingying watched from the side and saw Ye Chen do it manually. Other than the saber light, she didn't even see the saber clearly. The sharp bamboo tube was cut into two halves and flew past Ye Chen's face.
With that, Zhao Yingying was dumbfounded.
Now she finally believed that Ye Chen had indeed comprehended 2 to 3 out of 10 of that blade technique.
This technique could be said to be superb. She finally understood why her father gave her the manual.
However, there was still one more problem that she couldn't figure out. According to her memories, this place didn't have any traps!
But now, when did Ye Chen trigger that trap?
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from below Ye Chen's feet.
He had to rely on his five senses, otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to detect this tiny sound.
The first thing Ye Chen noticed was that something was wrong. He immediately jumped up and flipped into the air. As he landed, he saw that they were all densely filled with bamboo tube tips!
If he hadn't gotten up in time, his feet would have been pierced through. However, if he had fallen down now, it would have been disastrous.
Ye Chen clenched his teeth, and the long blade in his hand directly straightened down.
His two legs coiled around a bamboo behind him, and he used his downward momentum to descend. The longsword in his hand stabbed into the tube on the ground, stopping only then did he stop.
Ye Chen also breathed a sigh of relief. The Mo family's mechanical arts were indeed well-deserved, but for some reason, the mechanisms here all looked simple and crude, giving people the feeling that they were installed on the spot.
However, this was a brilliant move. Even the simplest and most primitive mechanism would be impossible to guard against.
If it wasn't for Ye Chen, who relied on his sensitivity as an expert in the late stage of the Refinement Realm, he would have definitely suffered a little.2
However, the situation was still very complicated. It was clear that he had been deliberately schemed against. However, he had not offended anyone here!
"Yingying, you leave first. You're familiar with the situation here, you'll definitely be able to leave safely, don't worry about me!"
After saying that, Ye Chen moved out of the range of the trap and arrived in front of Zhao Yingying. However, Zhao Yingying shook her head with a pale face. "It's useless. The two traps you had here didn't exist!"
"Right now, there are many traps that I don't know about. If I act rashly, I'm afraid I will die here too."
Zhao Yingying's face was pale and helpless as she said this. She didn't even know why the place she had lived in for more than 20 years had become like this.
Ye Chen looked around. He didn't know why, but he felt that there was a pair of eyes staring at him.
Now, he realized that his sixth sense was getting more and more accurate, so he couldn't be wrong about this feeling.
Therefore, Ye Chen became increasingly suspicious of Zhao Weide's intentions. Previously, he had used the sword manual and treasured blade to tempt him to come here and then kill him.
However, Ye Chen couldn't figure out one thing, and that was that Zhao Yingying was also here.
It was understandable that Zhao Weide wanted to kill him because of what happened previously, but there was no need for him to harm his daughter, right? If this guy didn't care about his daughter, then there was no need to find trouble with him.
Right now, the situation was getting more and more complicated, but the most important thing was to escape from this forest.
Only with one's own life would one have the ability to talk about other things.
If you lose your life and say that the truth isn't true, then you're done for being a fool!
Thinking about this, Ye Chen quickly asked, "Zhao Yingying, when your family set up this bamboo forest, did you only set up this level of mechanism?"
The reason Ye Chen asked this question so quickly was to confirm if it was all these things that followed. If it was all these traps, Ye Chen felt that he could still fight against them.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Yingying shook her head decisively. "This bamboo forest has existed for many years. I heard from my father that it had already existed when my grandfather was young."
"Other than the Patriarch of the Zhao Family, no one knows what other arrangements are inside!"
Zhao Yingying suddenly paused and swallowed her saliva. "I told you just now that these two mechanisms were not present here before."
"The most important thing is, there's still one more serious problem. These are just the tip of the iceberg of the Mo family's mechanical arts!"
