Urban Martial Arts System - Chapter 233
Chapter 233: Behind the Bronze Door
Zhou Ping sighed.
If it was used to kill people instead of being used as a speed stick, that kind of sword would not be damaged. After all, it was a real peerless sword.
Zhou Ping didn’t bother with the mechanisms. It was obvious that the level of those who arranged the mechanism did not reach the master level. Zhou Ping easily discerned the way that would not trigger the mechanisms and walked forward with Wu Jingxian.
“Seven steps forward, two steps horizontally, one step back, one step jump…”
As Zhou Ping dictated, he moved forward. Wu Jingxian followed Zhou Ping’s footsteps step by step.
The passage was not long. It was only two to three hundred meters. At the end of the passage was a bronze door.
As soon as Zhou Ping and Wu Jingxian reached the bronze door, they heard the sound of heavy objects falling. Looking back, it was probably the monster beast that had chased them.
The eyes of the monster beast were red and hideous. Seeing the two, the monster roared fiercely.
Powerful pressure rushed toward his face. Zhou Ping also let out his aura to resist, but he was not the opponent of the monster beast. Zhou Ping and Wu Jingxian half kneeled on the ground with a “puff”.
Fortunately, with Zhou Ping’s imposing resistance, Wu Jingxian did not faint this time around. The monster roared again and rushed towards Zhou Ping. The speed of the monster beast was faster than lightning.
But it was the mechanisms on both sides that were faster than the monster beast.
Swish…
Several sharp, unmatched sword auras shot out from both sides of the passage, and the originally aggressive monster was cut into several pieces.
Zhou Ping’s cold sweat broke down instantly.
“Who is living here?” Seeing the monster get beheaded, Zhou Ping’s first reaction was not to relax, but to become even more nervous.
How powerful is the monster? Zhou Ping, who was suppressed only by its aura, couldn’t move.
But such a powerful monster couldn’t resist a few sword auras, and it was the sword aura shot from a mechanism.
Zhou Ping almost wanted to go back the same way, but after thinking about it, he didn’t.
It was obvious that no one had lived here for a long time, and it was so secretive that it must be no ordinary place.
As long as there was no one, Zhou Ping was not afraid. It was not that Zhou Ping was stupid and reckless, but Zhou Ping had confidence in his own mechanical skills.
“There must be a chance in this tyrannical place for me to make a breakthrough.” This was a decision made by Zhou Ping deliberately. As a warrior, he would run when he saw danger and would never make progress.
Zhou Ping told Wu Jingxian of his decision. Unsurprisingly, Wu Jingxian was even more excited than Zhou Ping.
“What are you waiting for, let’s go!” Wu Jingxian said excitedly.
In this girl’s mind, life and death had never been a problem, but strength was the problem.
Now that a decision was made, Zhou Ping would not shrink back. However, after seeing the power of the mechanism, Zhou Ping became more cautious.
After all, no matter how tyrannical his body was, it was not as strong as that of the monster beast.
After carefully observing the two bronze gates in front of him, Zhou Ping looked at it several times over and over again.
There was no warning. Zhou Ping still felt uneasy and asked Wu Jingxian if she felt dangerous.
Wu Jingxian’s perception was simply a BUG-like ability. After Wu Jingxian said a no-dangerous answer, Zhou Ping began to push the bronze door.
After pushing it for the first time, the bronze door did not move.
Zhou Ping was a little surprised. The weight of the bronze door exceeded his imagination.
Standing firmly in front of the bronze door, Zhou Ping exhaled.
His muscles seemed to explode. Zhou Ping used all his strength to push the bronze door, but the bronze door remained motionless.
“What’s the matter? Is it locked inside?” Zhou Ping wiped the sweat from his forehead.
“What’s wrong? Is this bronze door heavy?” Wu Jingxian walked over and asked Zhou Ping.
“Maybe it’s locked inside. I can’t push it away.” Zhou Ping smiled bitterly. “It seems that we have no way of getting inside.”
“No way?” Wu Jingxian walked to the bronze gate depressed.
“Could it not be pushed but…” Wu Jingxian grabbed the buckle on the bronze door and pulled. The bronze door opened.
If there was a seam on the ground, Zhou Ping was absolutely willing to go in. A mechanical master unexpectedly did not figure out whether the door needed to be pushed in or pulled out. That alone would make countless people laugh.
Wu Jingxian was also holding back a smile, but her shaking shoulders couldn’t stop.
“Let’s go and see what’s inside.” Zhou Ping walked in first with a black face.
Inside the bronze door was a vast square, and there was no other room besides it. In the middle of the square, there was a person sitting cross-legged.
“Senior! We entered this place by mistake. We don’t want to intentionally offend you. Please forgive us.” The scared hearts of Zhou Ping and Wu Jingxian suddenly jumped out. The monster corpse outside was still cold, and they didn’t want to be like that. Hurryingly, they bowed and saluted.
However, the person didn’t respond.
“‘Senior?” Zhou Ping raised his head boldly and called again.
Still, nothing happened.
Zhou Ping took two steps forward, but the man remained motionless. Zhou Ping’s courage grew, and he took a few steps forward and looked at the man carefully.
The man had his eyes closed, sitting cross-legged on the ground. He had a fairy-like face, white hair and a ruddy complexion.
“Senior, these juniors were chased by monsters and went here by mistake.” Zhou Ping increased his voice again.
However, the man still did not respond.
“Could it be…” Zhou Ping looked around. There was a thick layer of dust. Upon closer observation, Zhou Ping discovered that even the senior with the fairy wind and the bones had a layer of dust on his shoulders.
Zhou Ping had guessed and strode towards the man.
“Aping, what are you doing?” Seeing Zhou Ping’s reckless behavior, Wu Jingxian was so frightened that she grabbed Zhou Ping’s hand.
“It’s okay. I just want to confirm my guess.” Zhou Ping shook her head at Wu Jingxian. Wu Jingxian looked at Zhou Ping’s eyes and released her hand.
When Zhou Ping walked in front of the man, Zhou Ping circled him a few times, but the man still did not respond. Zhou Ping lowered his head and thought. He gritted his teeth, stretched out his hand, and patted the man’s shoulder.
The place where he touched was stiff and cold, and the person still didn’t respond.
Zhou Ping breathed a sigh of relief immediately, and he stretched out his hand to poke around. He touched the person’s neck, and even put his hand on the person’s chest to feel it for a while.
Wu Jingxian almost went crazy. What Zhou Ping did was disrespectful to anyone. Wu Jingxian’s body was stretched tightly, and the palm of her hand was full of sweat.
“If the senior wakes up, I will fight for my life and let Aping leave first.” Staring at Zhou Ping and the ancestor who sat cross-legged, Wu Jingxian’s back was wet with sweat.
However, Zhou Ping completely relaxed instead.
“Hahaha, don’t be so nervous.” Seeing Wu Jingxian on guard, Zhou Ping laughed.

I laughed my ass off when Zhou Ping fell victim to the classic situation of mistaking a pull door for a push door (or vice verse in other cases).
