Chapter 1831: Trap

"Bang"

A strong stream of water shot out from the high-pressure water cannon again, accurately hitting the east wall of the corridor, instantly sending a piece of moss attached to the wall flying, revealing the wall below.

It can be seen that on the newly exposed wall, there is a mysterious symbol unique to the Knights Templar, and it is not known what it means.

Since this arched corridor has a slight upward slope, and Ye Tian is washed diagonally from the side, there is no need to worry about stagnant water flowing into the depths of the tunnel and soaking what is hidden inside.

After the high-velocity water shot from the high-pressure water gun hits the wall and washes away the moss and dust from the wall, it will flow down the wall, and then flow out along the corridor to the basement where Ye Tian and the others are!

Immediately afterward, the dirty water is pumped up to the ground by a pumping machine, filtered and then stored in the two fire trucks on the ground for recycling!

In this way, you don't have to worry about not having enough water in the fire truck, so you can use it freely, and you don't have to worry about too much water in the basement that will affect the exploration operation!

As he spoke, the high-speed water flow controlled by Ye Tian pushed inward along the Yongdao by about one meter, clearing out all the one meter in front of the wall on the east side of the Yongdao.

On the cleared wall, there were several mysterious symbols unique to the Knights Templar, one on a piece of granite, which seemed to imply or imply something.

In addition to Ye Tian, several guys on the west side of the door of the secret room also saw those mysterious characters, and were guessing and discussing the meaning of those mysterious characters.

Before they could discuss the results, Ye Tian used the high-pressure water gun in his hand to reveal the answer in person.

The powerful water from the high-pressure water cannon continued to stretch forward, and then broke through a thick patch of moss, revealing the granite carved with mysterious symbols below.

At this moment, a mutation suddenly occurred.

"Smack"

With a crunch, the piece of granite that had been hit by the high-speed current, as if slowing down, flipped inward about thirty degrees with difficulty, and then stopped.

Seeing this scene, Ye Tian immediately pretended to be surprised and let out a 'huh', and then quickly closed the valve of the high-pressure water gun and looked at the piece of granite where the mutation occurred.

The same goes for the guys standing behind him, all looking at the granite that suddenly turned thirty degrees, their eyes full of curiosity, all of them excited, and a little afraid!

As long as you are not a fool, you can see at this time that it is a trap, although it is not triggered, but it is enough to make people's hearts beat!

"Wow! There are traps in this corridor, but luckily we didn't venture into it, otherwise it would be a big problem!"

"I don't know what is hidden behind that granite, crossbow arrows or javelins? Why hasn't it been fired? The launcher is probably rusted to death!"

While there was a lot of discussion, everyone looked at the upturned granite with palpitations.

The granite strip stone was not too big, about 80 centimeters high and about 50 centimeters wide, and when viewed from the side of the opening, it was only 15 centimeters thick, and it should have been deliberately thinned to set traps!

It can be seen that behind the granite, there is a swarthy hole, and what is hidden in it, everyone does not know.

The reason is simple, there are no lethal weapons coming out of that hole, such as crossbow arrows, javelins, and nothing else!

Pretending to observe the granite carefully, Ye Tian said aloud:

"Sure enough, there are traps in this corridor, and they are set up quite cleverly, and only in this way can it be considered a normal situation, otherwise I would really doubt that there is nothing at the end of the corridor!

The trigger point of this trap is not the granite, the granite is just a trap door, which happened to be forced open by me with a high-pressure water gun, and the real trigger point should be on the floor of the corridor!

I guess the real trigger point is on the floor parallel to that granite, and I believe it is not difficult to find, I wonder if that trigger point is still effective now, and whether it can trigger this trap!"

As he spoke, Ye Tian had opened the valve of the high-pressure water gun again, and began to hit the ground of the tunnel with a high-speed flow of water, looking for the point to trigger the trap of this trap.

As the high-speed water rushed to the ground, the patches of moss attached to the floor of the corridor were immediately washed out, revealing the floor that covered the floor!

As is the case on the walls of the corridors, the granite used to lay the floors of the corridors is also engraved with many mysterious symbols of the Knights Templar, one on each floor!

In the blink of an eye, an area of about one meter in front of the tunnel has been washed away, revealing its original appearance.

The anomaly occurred again when the high-velocity water advanced to the ground parallel to the granite on the wall, hitting a piece of floor on the right side of the corridor.

"Click......"

There was a sudden sound of metal grinding in the corridor, which was extremely harsh.

The sound came from behind the thirty-degree turned granite on the wall, and it only rang three or four times before there was no movement.

From the black hole behind that piece of granite on the wall, nothing was shot, crossbow arrows, javelins or anything!

Seeing this scene, there was a small commotion at the scene again, and everyone started to talk about it with great interest.

Ye Tian closed the valve of the high-pressure water gun again, and then said with a smile:

"Obviously, the granite on the floor of the corridor is the trigger point for this trap, but unfortunately, due to its long existence, this trap has been completely scrapped and no longer threatening!

Just like the mechanism that opened the door of the secret room, the various metal components that maintain the operation of the mechanism are estimated to have been corroded, and even if they are specially treated with anti-rust, they can't resist the erosion of time!

Coupled with the dark and damp environment here, the speed of scrapping of various metal traps has accelerated, and according to my estimate, most of the traps in this corridor have been scrapped, just like this one!

But we still have to be cautious, there may be flip traps and so on in this arched corridor, although the trap looks simple, but it is also very deadly, and it will almost never fail!"

Hearing this, Bishop Kent and Jason both nodded slightly.

After a pause, Ye Tian continued:

"Another point is that the mysterious characters carved into the floor and walls of the corridor must conceal the way through this arched corridor, some of which represent safety, others of danger.

However, this character is only known to former high-ranking members of the Knights Templar, and it has been lost for more than 700 years, so none of us know it, so we can't find a safe passage through these characters.

Besides, our time is quite limited, and we simply don't have time to study these mysterious characters, find out their patterns, and how they relate to each other, and then decipher their meanings.

For now, we have only one way, and the most effective way! That is to use a high-pressure water cannon to open the way, thoroughly clean the road, and find every trap!

As long as I can determine the location of those traps, whether they fail or not, I can make my way through this arched passage and destroy all the traps to make a safe path for everyone!"

"So what are you waiting for? Steven, let's get started, we can't wait to get through this corridor and take a look at the end of the tunnel to see what secrets are hidden there!"

Jason continued, his eyes lit up with excitement.

Everyone else at the scene was the same, all staring at Ye Tian one by one, their eyes full of expectation.

"Okay, let's start now, at the end of this road, I believe there must be a huge surprise waiting for us, maybe another major discovery that shocks the world!"

Ye Tian smiled and nodded, his words full of confidence.

Before he could finish speaking, he had opened the valve of the high-pressure water cannon again and began to scour the arched corridor.
