Chapter 33 Guess
033 Chapter 33 Guess

Wu Xie was shocked: "It only takes 5 minutes to go back and forth. Where have all these things gone?"

The guy next to me looked puzzled.

The fat man asked fearfully: "Isn't it Zongzi who did this?"

I smiled and said, "No, there are 8 large cylinders. Even the rice dumplings can't be taken away all at once."

The fat man said: "Either there is more than one rice dumpling, or else it's that little girl Aning. Let me tell you, this girl... ugh."

I said to him: "Then it's even more impossible. Zongzi also formed a group to steal equipment? That must be the Zongzi gang with so many thieves. Besides, with so many things, it's impossible for there to be no movement at all. As for Aning, let's see I followed her into the main tomb. She didn't have time to commit the crime. Stop thinking about it."

At this time, the three brothers were all stunned, and their expressions were not very good. Thinking about it, at the bottom of the sea, we can't go back without equipment, and we may all die here.

My little brother and I looked here and there. Wu Xie and Fatty tried to search everywhere, but found nothing.

I was confused before, and when I regained my composure, I went to look at the small footprints and jars. I didn’t pay much attention to the details of the previous tomb, but based on my feeling, there was something wrong with the current decoration layout, so I asked them: "You guys Have you noticed any difference between this place and before?"

They were stunned for a moment and looked around with flashlights.

After a while, the fat man suddenly said: "Damn it! This is not where we were just now!"

Wu Xie also suddenly realized: "This is a completely different tomb structure from just now."

"Yes, this seems to be another room. Look, the baby coffin in the corner over there is also missing. The burial objects are also very different. And, look at the top..." The little brother shined a flashlight above.

Wu Xie looked up and was shocked. The yin and yang star chart on the relief on the top of the treasure had turned into two giant snakes entwined with each other, coiling around the entire round beam. The carvings were lifelike, as if they were about to pounce down. Same.Wu Xie quickly asked: "What's going on? Did we enter the wrong door?"

The fat man said unhappily: "Impossible, this has been the same road in Huashan since ancient times. You don't even know who I am, Fat Master. You can write my character "王" upside down!"

I smiled, this fat man is still a "king" on the other hand, he really can't let himself suffer a disadvantage.I said to them: "It's true that we didn't go the wrong way. The changes in the ear chamber, the loss of things, the human power and the rice dumplings are not very likely. The most likely thing is the mechanism."

"The agency..." Wu Xie thought of what his third uncle had mentioned in his notes, that the same situation happened 20 years ago. He knew about it but didn't take precautions, and his expression suddenly felt a little self-blame.

The fat man was a little confused and asked: "Little comrade, aren't you southern faction very familiar with the mechanisms in the ancient tomb? Have you seen this before?"

Wu Xie said a little embarrassedly: "There are no outsiders here, so I'll tell you the truth. This is my second time entering the battle. Don't talk about the tricks. I don't even know the names of these bottles." Even if I’m called unlucky, don’t count on me.”

The fat man still didn't believe it and said, "Comrade, don't scare me. I really hope you can figure it out."

Wu Xie smiled bitterly and said to him: "The situation is so bizarre now. Even if I were really good at this, I probably wouldn't be able to do anything about it. Just look at what mechanism can change all the furnishings in a room in just a few minutes. Even the structure of the house has been changed? This is impossible, there must be other reasons."

I saw that the younger brother also nodded lightly to express his agreement. It seemed that the younger brother also had no clue.

I thought for a while and said: "Actually... the room has not changed. Rather than saying that the room has changed, it is more appropriate to say that the room has been changed. It is possible to use the mechanism to change the room."

Wu Xie asked me: "Replace it? Xiaoxun, do you know something?"

I said, "I just read some records. Many years ago, someone encountered this similar situation."

Needless to say, the fat man looked confused, the younger brother had been deep in thought, and Wu Xie was hesitating about something.

After a while, Wu Xie decided to pick out some of the confusing things about his third uncle that had nothing to do with the little brother. After all, he hadn't figured out the little brother's position yet and didn't dare to talk nonsense.

As he spoke, Fatty interrupted.At the end, the fat man actually yelled: "You brat, you knew so much and didn't say anything. It's so abominable. Look how good it is now. You've ended up in a semi-dead situation!"

I saw that the younger brother was listening very intently, and suddenly he asked Wu Xie: "What did the third uncle say when he was unconscious? Say it again!"

Wu Xie was startled and stammered: "He, he said 'elevator'."

The little brother said oh, suddenly smiled and said, "So that's it."

He got up and walked to the stone gate of the corridor, and I quickly followed him. He touched the door frame and said, "This is indeed a mechanism, and it is very simple. It can only deceive children, so your third uncle couldn't see it 20 years ago." , it will be discovered in 20 years." The fat man saw that he seemed to know something and said to him: "Brother, if you know it, tell him quickly, and don't keep it secret."

The little brother said: "Let me give you an example. You will understand as soon as you hear it. If there is a two-story building with a room on each floor, and you walk out of the room on the second floor, at this time, I will build another one under this floor. When you come back, the rooms on the second floor are already on the third floor, and the rooms on the first floor have become the second floor."

The fat man heard this incomprehensibly. He stretched out two fingers and thought about it: "One two, two one, one two one, something like one two three. The more you talk about it, the more confused I become! Be clear."

Seeing that the fat man really didn't understand, Wu Xie explained it to him again. Only then did he understand and suddenly said: "Oh! I understand. I thought it was so profound, but it turns out it's just that."

I shook my head and said, "It's still wrong."

Brother Wu Xie looked at me, and Wu Xie asked: "What's wrong? Is it wrong? Tell me."

"I..." I hesitated for a moment and closed my eyes, and gestured with my little hands to tell them something: "The little brother said that there should be lifting and lowering, but I always feel that it is not a simple vertical lifting... I think... ...There may also be a rotating mechanism. The two are matched together, and the tunnel is fixed. Several ear chambers form a group, staggered up and down, and have a central axis. These ear chambers are staggered and can both rotate and rise. If If you have time, you can find the pattern by waiting in the corridor, but we don’t have that much time.” At this point, I opened my eyes and saw them both looking at me seriously. I continued, “I can only think of so much for the time being. , you know better than me in this regard, so let me give you a reference. In addition to this, there is another point, which is what the third uncle said... I think there seems to be something wrong. "

Speaking of this, the little brother suddenly carefully checked the door frame again, and then walked over to look at the water in the spring. Seeing his behavior, Wu Xie seemed to have something that he had not figured out, so he asked him: "The oil bottle is stuffy" , what’s wrong, do you still have questions?”

The younger brother nodded and said to Wu Xie: "Indeed, there is a big contradiction between what your third uncle said and our experience. I wonder if you have noticed it. He said that he was lying in this room and did not walk out. Ningdao, then no matter how the room is raised or lowered, he sees that it should still be this room, how could there be any change?"

After Wu Xie heard what the little brother said, he looked at me and I nodded to him: "I also feel that something is not right about this. Either your third uncle lied, or someone gave it to him while he was sleeping. Change the room, otherwise what he said won’t make sense at all.”

At this time, the fat man was already a little impatient. He yawned and said, "You three, don't worry about the ear room or the truth. We haven't found the way out yet. What's the use of knowing what's going on?" If you can get out alive, you can study it slowly."

The little brother said to us: "The ear chambers in ancient tombs are always symmetrical. There can't be only one room. Logically speaking, there should be another room opposite us." We followed the little brother to the corridor. .

We walked into the corridor and saw that there was only a white jade brick wall with no door on the opposite side. The boy put his ear against the wall, pressed two fingers on the cracks of the bricks, and touched it bit by bit. After touching it for more than ten minutes, we left. He came over and shook his head. It looked like a real brick wall.

Wu Xie sighed, thinking that his third uncle was an old man and there must be something he didn't say. He was really going to trick him to death this time.

After being stunned for a while, Wu Xie suddenly came up with a very bold plan. He said to us excitedly: "Actually, we don't need to be afraid. I estimate that we are only ten meters away from the sea. In order to accommodate the mechanism of the elevator, this tomb must be It needs to be built very high, and the top of the tomb should not be too far from the bottom of the sea. If that doesn't work, you can dig directly up. The water above the sea bucket is not very deep. If it is done at low tide, I estimate that as long as the sand above is not If it collapses, there is still a chance to get out."

The fat man waved his hand and said lazily: "Stop making trouble. We didn't bring any tools when we came in. They were all made of solid stone bricks. What should we use to dig them with our hands?"

Wu Xie said: "You don't understand this. Most of the bricks in the underwater tombs of sunken ships are hollow and can be pressed but not broken. As long as we can find a few metal objects and knock them hard a few times, we will definitely be able to make them." Come to a hole."

When the fat man heard this, he cheered up and said, "This method sounds like it might work, so let's not do any fighting, just dig out some tools. This tomb is so big, so there must be something in the main tomb chamber." There are bronze vessels for burial."

At this time, the little brother next to me said: "There is still a long time before the tide recedes. I don't know if the air here can last until then. Everything depends on God's will."

We packed up our things and walked to the corridor. As soon as we came out of the stone gate, the fat man cursed: "This place is so damn evil."

Where there was a brick wall in front of us, a door appeared. Inside the door was a golden nanmu coffin.

I pulled the little brother and said to him: "Brother, this is the big coffin that the third uncle mentioned." The little brother looked at me and nodded lightly.

The fat man's eyes lit up when he looked at it: "This coffin is made of golden nanmu. The head is huge. It must be about the same thickness as the 32 golden nanmu used to make giant pillars in Changling Tomb of the Ming Dynasty. This thing may be bigger than a human body. The silver is even more valuable."

Wu Xie said with doubts in his mind: "It's too weird to put such an expensive coffin in the ear chamber. The main tomb chamber should at least be a gold coffin. The owner of this tomb has no rules at all. The Feng Shui position It's all done in a chaotic manner, setting clever traps everywhere, but not taking anyone's life. I really don't know what they want to do."

The fat man smiled and said: "What are we thinking about here? We'll find out if we go in and take a look. You, Fatty, my main task now is to find tools to penetrate the roof of this stupid tomb. Don't give me a chance. Wait for us." Now that I’ve got this guy, it’s not too late to come back and get a few more!” "

Wu Xie sighed and said, "When you come back, who knows if this door will still be there."

The little brother suddenly waved his hand and said softly: "Don't talk." I saw his expression was serious, and I didn't know what was going on. He pulled out the air gun and said, "This is not an ordinary coffin, this is a corpse coffin."

He looked at me and whispered to me: "Don't be afraid, follow me." After saying that, he walked into the ear room where the coffin was placed, and I quickly followed.

The fat man originally wanted to maintain his image of having a high level of consciousness, but when he saw that the honest man was not polite, he immediately returned to his low-awareness nature and hurriedly followed in.

Wu Xie saw the darkness in the corridor, it was too scary to stay outside by himself, so he didn't dare to neglect, so he also ran in.
