Chapter 178 Warehouse
Chapter 178 Warehouse
Looking at Li Guanqiu's furious expression.
This should have been a very serious occasion, but considering his thin, stick-like physique...
The scene became somewhat comical.
But Li Guanqiu quickly calmed down.
"What do you want? If you've got your eye on that piece of oilstone, there's no need to go to such lengths."
"I can give it to you directly."
Li Guanqiu spoke calmly.
The only thing he could think of that could get the other side to capture their entire base.
That was the only place where oilstones were gathered.
After all, oilstones are considered hard currency within the Empire.
In the end times, it can serve as both fuel and currency.
For all the survivors.
Oilstones are a rare and valuable resource.
Presumably, the other side went to such lengths for that oilstone deposit.
Aside from this reason, Li Guanqiu could think of almost no other factors.
Regardless of what happens next, saving your own life is the priority.
Even if we give that oilstone settlement to them, as long as they live, there will always be a chance to get it back later.
Thinking of this.
Li Guanqiu couldn't help but clench his fist tightly.
There are still two groups of people outside their base.
The group consisted of a few people, led by Li Hao, who were guarding the oil and stone gathering place in the east of the city.
There's another batch.
They should already be on their way back from the giant whale base.
I just hope so.
They shouldn't run directly into these people's faces.
"That's interesting."
Guo Yong raised an eyebrow in surprise when he heard Li Guanqiu say that he would give them the oilstone settlement directly.
That's a smart person, actually.
They know they're using sending things to buy time.
As long as you're alive, you'll get back what you've given away sooner or later.
"Take us to the warehouse where you store your things."
Guo Yong spoke calmly.
Li Guanqiu was taken aback upon hearing this.
Clearly, they hadn't expected that the other party would immediately ask to go to the important warehouse area.
To know.
Their weapons and food were stored in the warehouse.
The opponent's move was very skillful.
He's obviously a repeat offender.
For a time, Li Guanqiu formed an impression of Guo Yong and others.
He quickly became one of those survivors who frequently robbed and plundered others; otherwise, he wouldn't be so familiar with the process.
Despite thinking this way, Li Guanqiu still nodded.
He agreed to take Guo Yong and the others to the warehouse.
There was no other way; after all, his life was in the other party's hands.
Did you see those guys holding those gleaming guns?
If I don't agree, what if the other party shoots me and I'm killed?
Following Li Guanqiu, they arrived at the warehouse outside the Baihong base.
"This is the warehouse."
With his hands tied behind his back, Li Guanqiu spoke to Su Yang.
Seeing this, Su Yang did not open the door immediately.
Instead, he stared at Li Guanqiu for a long time.
"Are there any traps?"
Upon hearing this, Li Guanqiu's mind went blank for a moment.
He didn't expect it.
The other party can easily make that connection.
Li Guanqiu had initially hoped that the traps in the warehouse might kill a few people.
My heart sank instantly.
If I say I don't have it, the other party definitely won't believe me, and might even use me as a shield to test the waters.
After all, they had already considered the possibility of a trap.
Taking a deep breath, Li Guanqiu nodded resignedly.
"The real intersection isn't this door in front of you, but the stone wall next to it. Press the switch and the hidden door will open."
"Goodness."
Upon hearing Li Guanqiu's words, Han Bei's eyes widened in surprise.
He hadn't even thought about it that way.
If Su Yang hadn't brought it up, he probably wouldn't have thought of it as a trap in the short term.
"Is this the difference between geniuses and ordinary people?"
Han Bei murmured to himself.
However, Han Bei quickly cheered up.
No matter how intelligent Su Yang is, there is one thing he cannot do.
That was the portal.
He was the only one in the entire Great Xia Dynasty who could open the teleportation portal, and that was the only reason.
His role can be described as unprecedented and unparalleled.
Therefore, although Su Yang and Guo Yong, among others, each have their own strengths.
Han Bei will no longer underestimate himself like before.
After all, his strengths are undeniable.
"lead the way."
Upon hearing this, Su Yang's gaze darkened.
He looked at Li Guanqiu.
If he hadn't been suspicious, the other party would have honestly told them that they hadn't used any tricks.
It is very likely that we have fallen into their trap.
Seeing this, Li Guanqiu had no choice but to explain all the steps.
Guo Yong followed Li Guanqiu's steps one by one and finally pressed a raised button.
The stone wall, which had seemed to be perfectly sealed, was now open, revealing an extremely spacious interior room.
Upon witnessing this scene.
Li Guanqiu finally breathed a sigh of relief, thankful that he hadn't lied.
He had personally witnessed the traps in the warehouse, and he could say that once triggered, killing two or three people would be no problem at all.
Those who react more slowly may even die.
"Go in."
Guo Yong pushed Li Guanqiu directly into the warehouse, and only went in after confirming that there were no problems.
After entering the warehouse, I took a quick look around.
Guo Yong spotted the crossbow mechanism in the corner of the ceiling at a glance.
His gaze turned cold.
He knew that Li Guanqiu couldn't possibly be so kind as to bring them here.
"You son of a bitch, didn't you tell me there was a trap?"
Yang Bowen felt a surge of anger when he saw the several gleaming crossbows.
He slapped Li Guanqiu across the face.
Feeling unsatisfied, he struck several more times.
There were several slapping sounds.
Several handprints also appeared on Li Guanqiu's face.
"I really didn't expect that. Everyone in the base knows about this."
Li Guanqiu was so badly slapped that he wanted to cry but couldn't.
Within the entire base, who doesn't know there's a trap in this warehouse?
There have been instances before where people tried to steal supplies and escape, only to be caught red-handed the moment they opened the warehouse.
He was riddled with crossbow bolts.
Moreover.
You didn't ask either.
Upon hearing this, Yang Bowen couldn't help but slap him again.
That made me feel a little better.
He now finds slapping people to be a wonderful feeling.
Especially the feeling of helplessness when the other person wants to dodge but can't, and can only let the slap land on their face.
"Damn, I almost got a good time."
Yang Bowen shook his slightly numb hand and couldn't help but glare at Li Guanqiu.
If it weren't for the fact that my hand was numb from pulling it out.
I need to hit myself a couple more times to vent my anger.
When Li Guanqiu saw Yang Bowen raise his hand, he involuntarily shrank his neck.
"Alright."
Seeing this, Guo Yong spoke up to stop him.
Although he did not object to Yang Bowen's actions, the sound of the slaps was too loud, and Guo Yong found it annoying.
After stopping Yang Bowen.
Guo Yong's gaze then fell upon the various supplies scattered throughout the warehouse.
He couldn't help but smack his lips.
This quantity of supplies was the largest they had seen in recent days.
