White Bone Monkey King

The scene where the old Taoist priest suddenly jumped down from the hanging coffin while sharpening the sword was something that no one expected, including Jin An, who subconsciously reached out to pull the sharp sword.

However, Jin An rushed to the hanging coffin and saw Xiejian jump off the hanging coffin and grab the iron chain, then use his arms to swing to the bottom of the hanging coffin. With the strength of his arms that was far beyond ordinary people, he grabbed Both edges of the bottom of the coffin.

Amidst the pitiful screams of the old Taoist priest, he let go of his sword and stepped on the coffin with both hands and feet, and jumped onto the hanging coffin again.

At this time, Chi Jian's expression was as usual, nothing unusual could be seen.

It’s just a bitter experience for the old Taoist priest.

After swinging on several swings in the abyss, his old face turned pale with fright, and his lips turned purple.

This shows that the soul is a beat slower than the body. When a person comes up, the soul has not yet caught up.

Seeing that the two of them had returned safely, Jin An hurriedly asked with concern: "Disciple, Old Taoist, it's great that you guys are back okay. Good disciple, you scared Master to death just now. Have you discovered anything?"

Jin An knew that sword-cutting was not the kind of reckless character.

As a thief, he must have found some clues here.

Chi Jian replied with a normal expression: "Master, there is also a human face under the hanging coffin. Every hanging coffin here is a bronze coffin with four sides."

"What?"

"Four-sided coffin?"

The rest of the people present were shocked.

They tried hard to hold up the divine treasures in their hands and use the light to see the hanging coffins above and around them. However, the rock walls of the pits would absorb the light, and the range of illumination was really limited. The coffins a few steps away became blurred and distorted, let alone hidden. Under the shadows on the bottom of the coffin were faces.

So everyone turned to look down at the bronze hanging coffin at their feet.

"Little, little brother, am I still alive? Isn't this... the underworld?" It was only then that the old Taoist priest's frightened soul finally caught up with his body, and he said with a trembling face and a mournful face.

Jin An was amused by the old Taoist priest. Seeing that the old Taoist priest was still a little frightened, he stopped joking with the old Taoist priest and said that everyone was still alive and no one died.

In order to divert the attention of the old Taoist priest, he told the discovery of sword sharpening again, intending to brainstorm ideas.

The old Taoist priest, who was still in shock, asked Chi Jian to put him down. He wanted to stand on the ground for a while. He had been swinging in the air several times in a row, which frightened him, who was afraid of heights.

The hanging coffin under their feet indeed has a male face carved on three sides. It is three identical male faces, with angry eyebrows and solemn look, just like the gods on the bronze vessels, which is awe-inspiring.

After being reminded of the sharpening of the sword, everyone discovered that the faces of the hanging coffins not only looked exactly the same, but also had the same position, lines, and size, as if they were carved from the same mold.

From the proportions of the facial features to every minute pattern on the coffin, all sides are surprisingly consistent.

This discovery suddenly made the already tense atmosphere become weird.

"No one can count how many hanging coffins there are here. If all these four-sided coffins have human faces and are exactly the same size, why do I always feel so horrified and my scalp is numb. There are so many four-sided hanging coffins locked here. , what did the immortals from thousands of years ago want to do?"

"Just now we were busy on our way and didn't pay close attention. Now that we know that the coffin under our feet is a four-sided coffin, we think about it carefully. Don't you think there are always eyes staring at us along the way? No matter how we walk, there is a coffin above us. Can’t your feet, front, back, left, and right escape the surveillance of your eyes?”

In the weird atmosphere, a few words from the Wu brothers made the atmosphere in the team more solemn and scared old man Qi. Miss Hongyu glanced at the Wu brothers and did not join in creating a panic atmosphere.

A group of seven people were trapped in a hanging coffin in the abyss, unable to move up or down for a while.

These brothers are also very courageous. They feel that everyone is trapped here anyway, so why not open the hanging coffin at their feet and see what is in the coffin?

Even if no clues are found, it will be worthwhile if you touch one or two immortal remains and get one or two treasures.

However, the two men tried hard for a long time and failed to open the lid of the coffin. Finally, they got frustrated and cursed: "These coffins have been watered to death with copper juice."

Xiajian looked up at the coffins hanging above his head, and said in a dull voice without any nervousness at all: "Master, this seems to be a trance formation."

Jin An: "Ecstasy array?"

The sword-sharpening voice replied calmly: "Every hanging coffin here has four faces. The size, pattern details, and even the marks of the craftsmen's intentional carvings on each coffin are exactly the same. The layout of these hanging coffins is like It’s deliberately guiding us so that we can’t tell the up and down directions.”

Because Chi Jian is usually taciturn, his language organization ability is a bit weak, but Jin An still understood what Chi Jian wanted to express. He looked stunned: "Hypnosis! Psychological suggestion!"

Hypnosis?

Psychological suggestion?

After failing to lift the coffin lid, the Wu brothers, who were getting discouraged, turned to look at Jin An in confusion.

Jin'an Organization Language explained: "In the small details of our lives, there are hypnosis and psychological suggestions everywhere. Some seemingly inadvertent small details often bring strong self-hypnosis to people's subconscious. For example, The first time we see red cloth, we think of celebration; the first time we see white cloth, we think of a deceased person attending a funeral; the first time we see Taoist monks, we think of compassion..."

"For another example, if you write the same word repeatedly, you will find that the word becomes more and more unfamiliar, your memory deteriorates, and some of you do not recognize it. The more you write the word, the more distorted it becomes. This is also a kind of hypnosis. People will find it easier to repeat the same thing. Fatigue, slow reaction, and automatically ignoring some details around me.”

"In this pit, there are countless coffins hanging on four sides, and the surrounding rock walls absorb light and cannot be seen very far. It is easy to lose the sense of direction, so when we inadvertently started to use the man's face on the hanging coffin as a guide to move forward, When I tell you that we are actually going backwards instead of forwards, you will certainly object to me."

The Wu brothers immediately stood up and retorted: "This is impossible!"

"Whether we are walking up or down, we two brothers can still tell clearly. After all, the feeling of climbing up and down the chain is completely different. One has his head and feet, and the other has his head and feet!"

Jin An also knew that his conjecture was a bit fanciful. As the Wu brothers said, walking on the head and feet and walking on the head and feet are completely different experiences. This alone is difficult to explain.

"I also said that when a person repeatedly does one thing or stares at the same thing repeatedly, and is immersed in hypnosis, the person's reaction will become slower and the brain's thinking ability will decrease. During this period, we will miss any important details or things. Subtle changes in the body are subconsciously ignored by us."

"Of course, it would be a bit far-fetched to simply explain the completely different feelings on the head and feet and on the head and feet, so I think there must be more than one bronze coffin lock array in this pit, and there must be something else. Maybe the huge black shadow on the fifth mural is also a part of it."

"The hypnosis and psychological suggestion I mentioned is just one of the possible conjectures. If you have other conjectures, you can discuss them together and brainstorm a way out."

At this time, Jin An came to the hanging coffin and kept looking at the upper and lower spaces, wondering in his heart, could it be that this mountain god's heaven and earth bone is really an abandoned place, and they are in a chaotic space above and below?

"Little brother, I listen to what you mean. Why does it mean something like the 'Escape' technique in Qimen Dunjia?" The old Taoist priest who was down to earth in the hanging coffin said with a somewhat surprised look on his face after he recovered a little.

The old Taoist priest tried his best not to make any big movements, and tried to keep his center of gravity balanced on the hanging coffin, and continued: "This Qimen Dunjia is profound and profound, including endless Yi techniques and calculations. It is based on the Eight Diagrams of the Yi Jing and combined with astrology. Calendar, astronomy and geography, eight gates and nine stars, yin and yang and five elements, three wonders and six rituals and other elements.”

"For example, just talking about the 'Escape' technique in Qimen Dunjia, it can be divided into two categories, namely 'Yang Escape' for tangible things and 'Yin Escape' for intangible things. This tangible thing, For example, the Yanshi Mechanism; as for intangible things, mountains, rivers, fengshui, sun, moon, stars, and the power of ghosts and gods can all be summarized here. Little brother, the hypnosis, psychological suggestion, and murderous heart-breaking techniques you just mentioned also belong to the 'Yin Escape' within the category.”

"What a pity..." When he said this, the old Taoist priest suddenly let out a long sigh of despair.

"What's the old Taoist regret about?"

"You should tell us quickly, did you think of something?"

Several people quickly asked the old Taoist priest.

The old Taoist priest did not answer immediately, but walked carefully on the hanging coffin with a compass in his hand. After a few steps, he would shake his head and sigh, then change the direction, shake his head and sigh again.

This scene made the pair of Wu brothers extremely anxious. They were now trapped in this abyss, which was invisible to the heavens and the underworld, and they couldn't get out. Why do you still keep it here to satisfy people's appetite? They hurriedly asked: "Old Taoist Please think of us as brothers begging you. We know that you are very capable and that you know Feng Shui and magic. Now that we are all trapped here and cannot get out, we are just grasshoppers on a rope. What have you discovered? You should tell me quickly and stop playing charades with us."

At this time, the old Taoist priest put away the compass, then glanced at the Wu brothers, and said: "Old Taoist, I said it at the beginning, the rock walls here will absorb light, and it will be pitch black. There are a thousand Qimen Dunjia There are multiple rounds, and you can’t even tell what kind of round this is, so how can we break it?”

When people are trapped in a desperate situation, they are easily agitated. The Wu brothers were so angry that they were so angry that they were almost crooked when they were reprimanded by the old Taoist priest. Just when the brothers were about to quarrel with the old Taoist priest, the Hongyu girl on the other side came in time Breaking the tense atmosphere: "I agree with the two theories of subtle hypnosis and Qimen Dunjia's Yin Dun. If you go to tombs a lot, you will encounter some cleverly designed tombs. I have also encountered them. By using the illusion of the human eye and deliberately leaving clues and marks, we always think that it is a Yin Palace design that is moving forward but cannot get out."

"But we were much luckier that time, and the size of the mausoleum was not as big as this underground palace. We blew it out directly. Only afterwards did we discover that it was a Hui-zi tomb chamber, which was created using hypnosis and the mausoleum designer. The clue marks deliberately left for us mislead us into taking the marks as a sense of direction, and a simple tomb chamber design with the word "Hui" trapped us for most of the day."

Having said this, the Hongyu girl turned around and looked around: "The terrain here is more complex and harder to crack."

The underlying meaning of her words was that they were in a hanging coffin in the abyss, and even if they had explosives, they couldn't use it unless they wanted to fall off the cliff and lose their bones.

The current situation is that they have clearly discovered the clever design of the coffin hanging on all sides, but they just can't find a way out.

In addition to hanging coffins on all sides, there were other details that they ignored in this pit, forming an interlocking Qimen Dunjia game.

How could the Qimen Dunjia deployed by the Taoist Immortal thousands of years ago be cracked so easily?

Everyone talked to each other and discussed countermeasures. The only way that finally came to mind was that everyone covered their eyes and did not look at the same faces on the hanging coffins that could hypnotize people. Maybe we could find a glimmer of hope.

But there are pros and cons to this approach.

No one can guarantee that they will not miss the mark if they close their eyes.

And if you make a wrong step on these dangerous and dangerous hanging coffins, you will be doomed.

At this time, the prophecy on the fifth mural was like a big stone weighing on my heart. In the end, only a few people managed to get out alive. Is it because most of them fell into the air and died?

For a while.

The atmosphere became oppressive and silent.

There is despair in this silence.

"Old Taoist, sharpen your sword. Let's try climbing up again. This time we try not to pay attention to the men's faces on the hanging coffin."

"As for climbing the hanging coffin blindfolded, it can only be considered as the last resort when you are desperate. I believe that such a clever Qimen Dunjia game cannot be walked out casually while blindfolded."

"There must be some details we missed."

Jin An did not wait for Old Man Qi and the others. He was not discussing with others. There was no panic on his face. He was far from giving up and getting discouraged.

Seeing Jin An and the others starting to look for a way out again, the other four followed them silently.

However, this time I climbed a hundred feet and still couldn't find the exit.

Even if they returned the same way, they still couldn't get out. They couldn't even find the crack in the cliff through which they entered in the first place.

The atmosphere in the team became increasingly dull.
