Wu Zhongyuan walked to the stone tablet in the north of the stone chamber in confusion, this stone tablet is about two meters high, about one meter two wide, densely engraved with text, the font is the end of the Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period of the common official script.

Lishu and modern traditional Chinese characters are seventy percent similar, even Wang Xinran can understand it, Wu Zhongyuan can naturally understand it, the first sentence of the inscription is: 'I know you are coming, the return gift has been prepared, go in and get it.' ’

After reading this sentence, Wu Zhongyuan frowned in confusion, he was puzzled not because he didn't understand what this sentence meant, but because he couldn't figure out why Zuo Ci used the word 'return gift', return gift usually refers to the return gift given after receiving other people's gifts, and they didn't give Zuo Ci a gift, which kind of gift did Zuo Ci return?

However, this sentence itself is very colloquial, which is also in line with Zuo Ci's bohemian character. Modern people generally have a misunderstanding of the language habits of the ancients, and they all think that the ancients speak all about the people, but in fact, they are not, and the people who speak are also official words, which are spoken by the upper class.

Looking further down, the inscription reads, 'Beauty doesn't know which one you are, but I know, but unfortunately I'm nearing the limit, can't wait for you to come, can't talk to you about the past and the present, extrapolating the warp and weft, it's a pity to be tight, fortunately, my mind is outstanding, and I came up with a good way to talk about the theory between the yin and yang, and you are separated from the yin and yang to talk about the theory, there are eight doors in front of you, each of which has a change in the mechanism, try your spiritual talent, test your mental virtue, win a game against me, there is a gift, I win a game, there is a small punishment. Uh, I almost forgot to describe my life, I am Mr. Wujiao Zuo Ci is also, known as Zuo Xianren, I am not a thing in the pool, but to understand the way of heaven, do not be confused to practice divine ability, observe the joys and sorrows of the world, feel the joys and sorrows of the people, set foot in *, travel the world in Kyushu, the wine kings and princes during the day, and linger in the boudoir at night......

The next words are all Zuo Ci bragging, saying that bragging doesn't seem to be accurate, it should be said that Wang Po sells melons, when did he drink wine with which emperor, when did he play chess with which immortal, and also said that Lu Bu once asked him to be a military advisor, Da Qiao once threw flattery at him, and said that Kong Ming asked him to consult Qimen Dunjia, Cao Cao asked him to deduce the national fortune and so on.

While Wu Zhongyuan was checking the words on the stele, Wang Xinran and the others were also doing the same thing, after reading the words on the stele, the expressions of the four were strikingly similar, and they were all frowning in embarrassment.

The four of them are actually not embarrassed, they are embarrassing for Zuo Ci, this has to be shameless to leave such a text.

Wang Xinran spoke first, "Hehe, I now know why so many people want to kill him." ”

Wu Zhongyuan also replied, Zuo Ci likes to tease people, the more he is in a high position, and the more serious and unsmiling a man on weekdays, the more he likes to make the other party ugly. The more he pretends to be a pure woman on weekdays, the more he likes to embarrass the other party, in today's words, this is a serious obsessive-compulsive disorder for error correction, and when he sees someone pretending to be forced, he runs over and slaps his face, just such an old angry young man who is not afraid of things.

Now there is a saying that if you have money, you will be willful, this old and angry young man is capricious, relying on his own magic, no king's law, unbridled profligacy, do whatever he wants, and this person is very curious, and he likes to observe others, sometimes it is a fair observation, sometimes it is a shameless peeping, the stone statue of the concubine outside is undoubtedly the scene recorded by this person secretly peeking.

Wang Xinran tried to contact the headquarters to get more historical information about the man, but he was in the underwater stone chamber and had no mobile phone signal.

In the next five minutes, none of the four of them spoke, thinking about the same question, that is, what kind of demon moth might Zuo Ci's character make in the subsequent eight passes, and what kind of experience Zhao Ying and the others would have when they went in first.

The silence was broken by Wang Xinran, who pointed to the stone tablet and asked Wu Zhongyuan, "Does the 'you' on this refer to you?"

"If the 'beauty' on the stele refers to the female warrior, then he is talking about me. Wu Zhongyuan said.

"Why did he say that the beauty doesn't know who you are, but he does?" Wang asked happily.

Wu Zhongyuan didn't answer, and this question was also bothering him.

Wang Xinran asked again, "Why does he want to talk to you about the past and the present, and to deduce the warp and weft? He seems to be very curious about you, and even if he dies, he wants to compete with you." ”

Wu Zhongyuan shook his head slowly.

"The person who came to you doesn't know who you are, but he knows who you are? What kind of logic is this?" Wang Xinran said to herself, the reason why she said it was talking to herself instead of asking questions, because she knew very well that Wu Zhongyuan would definitely not be able to answer this question.

Wu Zhongyuan really didn't answer.

Wang Xinran looked at Wu Zhongyuan suspiciously, "Who are you?"

"I don't know," Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, "I will never know who I am if I don't go back." ”

Unable to think of why, Wang Xinran could only give up, put aside the diving equipment, and took out a pistol to check*, "Do you understand Qimen Dunjia?"

"I've heard Master say that he knows a little, but he can't be considered proficient. Wu Zhongyuan said.

"What kind of spell is Qimen Dunjia?" Wang Xinran asked.

Wu Zhongyuan recalled for a moment, and then said, "Qi Men Dun Jia is not a spell, but a method of divination and prediction, Qi refers to the three odds, that is, Bingyi Ding three days dry, the door refers to the eight gates of life and death, corresponding to the eight directions of southeast and northwest, northeast, northwest, northwest, southeast, and southwest. The meaning of Dunjia is to push the yin of Liujia and hide, to put it bluntly, it is to achieve the purpose of seeking good fortune and avoiding evil by predicting the future. ”

Although Wu Zhongyuan tried to be straightforward in his speech, Wang Xinran still seemed to understand. But Wu Zhongyuan didn't explain again, what he just said was already the most straightforward and simple, in fact, Qimen Dunjia is very complicated, more difficult to understand than calculus.

Wang Xinran didn't ask any more, bypassed the stone stele, came to the left side of the half-open stone door, and looked in.

Zhang Shukai and Lu Jiahui also walked over, separated on the left and right sides of the stone gate, both of them held pistols in their hands, although Lu Jiahui's specialty is underwater archaeology, but since she works in the 18th Branch, she will naturally use guns.

Through the gap in the stone door, you can see that inside is a stone room that is the same as the stone room where the four people are, and there is light inside, just like the outside, it is a miserable green light.

On the floor of the stone chamber, there seemed to be some metal artifacts scattered with strange shapes, not weapons or living utensils, but some fragments of armor.

There is also a stone door to the north of the stone chamber, but the stone door is closed at this time.

"Are they inside?" Wu Zhongyuan asked casually.

"It should be," Wang happily reloaded, "covering his ears." ”

"What do you want to do?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

"Tell her I'm coming. After Wang Xinran finished speaking, he fired a shot.

Wu Zhongyuan didn't expect her to shoot when she said to shoot, but before she had time to cover her ears, the stone room was relatively closed, and his head was stunned by the echo shock.

After the shooting, Wang happily pushed the stone door into the stone chamber inside, looked around to make sure that there was no one, and there was nothing else in the stone chamber except for the fragments of armor scattered on the ground.

Wu Zhongyuan was the second to enter, and after entering the door, he bent down and picked up a piece of metal, this thing is indeed like a part of the armor, and the color should be copper, it has been damp for a long time, and the surface is faintly green.

The main body of the armor is scattered in the lower right corner of the stone chamber, and if you look closely, you can see that it is not a set of armor, but a humanoid object covered with armor.

"Robots?!" Wu Zhongyuan's first thought was this thing.

Walking over with doubts and taking a closer look, it turned out to be a robot, there are a lot of metal parts in it, but compared with modern precision parts, these parts seem very crude, there is no watch, there are no complicated lines inside, only a lot of gears of different sizes, this thing should work like a clock, it is likely to be winded.

Seeing the internal structure of the robot, Wu Zhongyuan was not surprised, this robot is not a robot in the real sense, but a mechanical tool similar to a wooden ox and a flowing horse.

When Wu Zhongyuan inspected the crude robot, Wang Xinran and Zhang Shukai picked up some bullet casings from the ground of the stone room, and there were more than 20 bullet casings, which were of the same model.

These 20 or so shots were the cause of the robot's falling apart, and judging from the robot's internal structure and the fact that no weapons were found on the ground, it seems that the robot does not have the ability to attack.

"Have you seen anything like this before?" Wu Zhongyuan looked at Lu Jiahui.

Lu Jiahui was inspecting the bottom of the stone gate at this time to determine whether there was a dark stone at the top door, and when she heard Wu Zhongyuan's question, she raised her head and said, "Similar things are not uncommon in archaeological excavations, but there has never been a record of excavation of such a thing made entirely of metal." ”

"Can you determine the purpose of this thing?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

"I try. Lu Jiahui walked over and squatted down to examine it carefully.

At this time, Wang Xinran was trying to push open the second stone door, which was very heavy, but could barely be pushed.

"Don't rush forward, figure out the situation here. Wu Zhongyuan said.

"This place has been destroyed by them, is there still a need to stay?" Wang said happily.

"Yes," Wu Zhongyuan nodded, "This stone room should be the first gate of the Eight Gates, the Shengmen, and the Five Elements of the Shengmen belong to gold, and this happens to be a copper puppet, I want to find out the real purpose of this copper puppet......"
