Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

Chapter 387 It’s not difficult for those who know

It is not difficult to know. After being reminded by Zhou Banxia and seeing that it was getting late, Gu Erzhu was too lazy to embarrass his old son anymore, so a trap stone door in the underground cave was quickly opened.

The opening is about half a foot wide. In modern terms, it would be about 1.5 meters wide. It is almost half the width of a warehouse and can accommodate a cart.

It was pitch black inside.

Gu Erzhu, who was leading the way, quickly took out the fire certificate from the black cloth bag he brought and instantly lit the oil lamp on the stone wall on the right side of the door.

Taking advantage of the brightness of the oil lamp, Gu Wenxuan, who was second in line, blinked in discomfort and saw that the oil lamp was placed just in the recess of the stone wall.

At this time, Zhou Banxia, ​​who was walking behind him, could also see with the naked eye that the inside of the door was wider than the entrance. Visual inspection showed that the width inside was at least twice as wide.

This is already close to the width of a warehouse. When we walk two steps further in, we will see that the depth is also long enough, about seven or eight meters.

The height is not bad either.

It has obviously been renovated and cleaned up.

Zhou Banxia estimated by himself that the space in front of him was about twenty or thirty square meters, which was quite large.

Then he followed the father and son in front and walked a few steps further in, and it became wider.

It's just that this cave has existed for an unknown number of years. The walls and roof of the cave are made of hard rock, and there are also many sharp spots here.

If they were over 1.7 meters tall, like the father and son in front, they would have to bend down carelessly as they walked further in, otherwise they would easily bump into each other.

Thinking about it, time was too short, so Gu Dayou and her husband dug out the cave wall and the top of the cave in the front space, so her father-in-law had to give up temporarily.

really.

As soon as Zhou Banxia thought of this, she heard that Gu Erzhu had already started talking to Gu Wenxuan, or to her, about the situation of entering the cave.

"...The front section behind us is easy to clean up. The ground is full of rotten leaves, mud and the like. After we shoveled it out, we stood up straight."

This refers to what Xuanzi said before that he climbed in through the entrance of the cave when he was a child. After cleaning it, the entrance of the cave was different from what Xuanzi said before. It seemed to be quite big inside.

Zhou Banxia understood it and solved the first mystery in his heart about this cave.

“It’s really not small inside. This section of the road is not too high, but the sharp points above the head still need to be carved out.

Dayou and his wife were very sincere, and they wanted to stay up late and cut these out by themselves, but that wouldn't work, as long as they died of exhaustion.

If the three of us go further inside, you will soon understand why dad asked them to stop first. There is a mountain crevice there.

When he saw the crack, Master Wang gave his father a suggestion. First, install a machine door on this side of the crack. Looking back, he thought that he could cut the crack open with multiple exits.

In order to have an extra exit in the future, my father and Master Wang even climbed the mountain and went around looking for it for two days. After checking it, they didn't let Master Wang draw it on paper.

As long as you two are well aware of this matter, the front and back doors have all been locked. When you turn around and open the gap, you will be able to escape.

Remember, if something unavoidable happens and you are surrounded in front, you can run to the mountains or to the ancestral graves of our Gu family if you leave here.

Later, dad will ask your uncle to find out if there are other places besides the hiding place opposite the Gu family's ancestral grave. If dad guessed correctly, there should be other places.

For example, when we renovated the ancestral hall this time, my father tested your uncle and his son and asked them if they wanted to dig two cellars in the ancestral hall that could hide people. Your uncle revealed the truth. He said that we are right next to the mountains, and there is no place where hiding people can make people feel more at ease than the places in the back mountains. Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by your uncle.

Don't rush to inquire about this matter. Your uncle is easy to talk about anything, but when it comes to where the clan members are hiding, he gets so confused that he doesn't even utter a single word.

So I thought about it for a while. Anyway, when you come back and take a look at this, you will know exactly what you want to change, so you can just install the two machines and close the door.

Also, if you want to change the mechanism of these two gates, move them further apart, etc., Master Wang also gave me a lesson. I didn’t write this down on paper. I’ll talk to you later. "

While they were talking, the three of them started walking from the more spacious cave and went further inside, getting narrower and narrower.

From the original width that was enough for three people to walk in a row, it could only accommodate two people walking side by side, and finally only one person could pass.

As for the ground, there are no rotten leaves, mud or dust, and the scent of realgar mugwort can still be smelled in the nose.

It was obvious that the ground had been cleaned beforehand, and herbs used to prevent insects and snakes were smoked.

At the same time, the front has reached the end, there is no way to go, and gravel and adobe bricks are piled up in one place.

Is the door in front?
The switch that is turned on is also in the right corner of the debris?

Zhou Banxia, ​​who was ranked third, bent over and stretched his head to look forward from Gu Wenxuan's armpit, and finally saw Gu Erzhu starting to operate.

Gu Erzhu's posture at this moment was not much more elegant than his old daughter-in-law, so he turned sideways and half-crouched so that his old son and old daughter-in-law behind him could see more clearly.

Just as he was saying that he had taken a look, he started to move a few pieces away and turned around, he saw the old son deliberately lowering his arms to cover the old daughter-in-law behind him.

This bastard is teasing my wife again.

Gu Erzhu stared at his old son dumbfounded, "I wonder if Sanya is covered by his tallness? Help me give him a fist!"

"Okay." Zhou Banxia agreed happily, clenched his two fists and took a look, "Dad, if I hit him, I guess it won't hurt him. My hands hurt first."

Gu Erzhu laughed and nodded, "Okay, wait until Qian Ming'er has finished practicing before giving him a fist. Here, we also turn left three times, then right twice, press in, turn right again, and then break off this end. It's very It's about to open.

Did you hear that? There was a clicking sound. Just like before, the place was empty and the echo was loud. Once the things were placed, the sound would not be obvious.

Of course, if you want to put it back in a cabinet or use other methods to cover up this movement, that's fine, just don't spend money on me.

Sanya, please keep an eye on this and don't listen to him on anything else. If you continue to rely on him, it’s not because dad is trying to scare you. Even if you spend three thousand taels of silver, it won’t be enough for him to do what you want. "

Zhou Banxia hurriedly nodded obediently, realizing that she might have been obscured by the tall man in front of her, and her father-in-law could not see that she was sincere.

hurry up.

"Okay, dad, I listen to you, but Brother Liulang is still very reliable. He is so good at Jiuzhan arithmetic. He really didn't spend half a penny in vain."

Listen!

Old son, are you sorry?
Gu Erzhu glanced at his old son and didn't want to speak anymore. He couldn't teach anyone who was willing to fight and suffer, so it was better to finish the matter in front of him quickly.

Gu Wenxuan blinked innocently, his daughter-in-law said so well and was telling the truth, but his father still didn't believe it, so he could maximize the benefits by leaving the money in his hands.

"Come on, let's try it."
