Chapter 308: The Hidden Mechanism

A question that he had never understood slowly became clear.

Why did the Yuan soldiers here disappear without a trace, it is likely that these Gu worms are causing chaos.

Gu worms can make them hallucinate and make them unable to move, these have already happened to them, but now that they have the protection of the Soul Suppression Bead, they don't have to worry too much.

Now there is a new problem, which makes Lu Yunfan confused and unable to figure it out.

The Yuan soldiers appeared here, and his first thought was that this was once the place where the Song soldiers of the Central Plains resisted the Yuan soldiers. The Song soldiers could not compete with the Yuan soldiers, so they turned to the witch king for help, which is the most reasonable explanation.

But after seeing the situation here, his previous guess was skewed, the Yuan soldiers occupied the absolute high ground, more like an ambush, and such an ambush was not in line with the style of the Mongols on horseback.

Unless they were fighting with their backs and were cornered, the Yuan soldiers had no way out, so they chose to open such a flat land on the top of the mountain to ambush the attacking side. And it is certain that the Witch King is already involved in the attacking side.

And which side this high monk is on, he is a little confused, if he is on the side of the Song people, but he uses Nagarjuna to suppress the Gu worms, but if he is on the side of the Mongols, he always feels that these organs of his are everywhere to defend against foreign invasions.

Seeing that Lu Yunfan didn't move, Tie Han realized that he also had a soul suppression bead on his body, so there was no need to make such a fuss, but Tang Yifei and Heizi had been hit by such a trick once before, and they were afraid in their hearts.

Lu Yunfan said to a few people: "You don't have to worry, I think I have understood, in the case of water shortage, these Gu worms are almost no threat to us, so you can rest assured, we can't take away these dragon tree wood, let's look for other valuable things." ”

Tang Yifei and Heizi cowered and walked around the dragon wood, presumably because they had been infiltrated by Gu worms before, and the hallucinations that made them painful were still affecting them.

Lu Yunfan smiled and said to Tie Han: "You and Heizi are in a group, and Fei Ge and I are in a group, we each have a bead on our bodies, so we don't have to worry about being entered by Gu worms." ”

After saying that, he beckoned to Tang Yifei, and Tang Yifei ran over happily.

Tie Han took out the bead from his pocket and looked at it thoughtfully, at this time the sunspot had already taken the initiative to lean over, and he was also looking at the bead with envy.

"Tie Man, how can this bead be so magical?" asked Kuroko, almost asking.

Tetsuhan shook his head, and suddenly put the bead on Kuroko's lips, Kuroko didn't know what he was going to do, but he knew that there was no harm in approaching this bead, so he pouted and looked at Tetsuko, waiting for the final result he wanted.

After waiting for a while, Tie Han took back the beads, rubbed them on his body and said: "What Xiao Fan said is really right, the Gu worms in this dragon wood will not come out to harm people at all, strange and strange, could it be that these witch kings can still call the wind and rain?" No, I understand, it's the water in this river!"

Tie Han walked to the edge and looked down, the river that should have been rushing was gone, but it was still clearly visible, if the Mongols camped here, they would have to settle for food and water, food could be carried, but for water, I am afraid they would have to rely on the river below.

The two armies are facing each other, how can they go down to fetch water at any time?

Could it be ......

"Xiao Fan, I seem to have thought of why these Mongols disappeared cleanly!"

Lu Yunfan had just caught a glimpse of him looking down, and guessed what he was thinking, so he asked, "Are you thinking that the Yuan soldiers here activated the Gu worms in the dragon wood with their own water?"

"That's what you think too?"

Lu Yunfan smiled and nodded, "But I don't think the water that activates the Gu worms in the dragon wood is the water in the river below. ”

"Oh? Where is that water?"

Lu Yunfan raised his hand and pointed to the top of his head, and the three of them looked up one after another, only to find that the clouds above their heads were thick, as if it would rain at any time.

"You may not have noticed that the climate here is very strange, and the last time we passed through here, we encountered strong air currents here, which not only made it rain every day over here, but also made it difficult for people to walk through here, so there were so few people and cars passing by on this road. ”

"Yes, why didn't I think of it!" Tie Han slapped his head, if there were a lot of people and cars passing here, how could there be secrets here, it had already been exposed for many years.

"But why did you build this road, didn't the department that built the road discover the secret here?"

Lu Yunfan continued: "This question, Lao Sun has already told me before, this road is not built by the government, and the Buddha statue is not a secret at all, many people in the town under the mountain know that there is a huge Buddha statue here, Lao Sun said that when he was young, he often came here to play in the water, but then the pool dried up, they rarely came, plus the special weather here, basically no one wants to come here." ”

"When we first came into contact with the Buddha statue, we found a line of Chinese characters behind the bottom of the Buddha statue, and I suspect that the people who built this road had the same purpose as us at the time, but they didn't seem to have succeeded, otherwise they wouldn't have been obscure until now, and this rare wood like dragon wood would not still be unknown. ”

"Then do you think those Mongols at that time discovered the value of this wood?"

"Mongols?" Lu Yunfan smiled, "During the war years, only metal was the most valuable to them, and I am afraid that there would be no wood products among all their war trophies!

Speaking of which, when he returned here, Lu Yunfan looked far away, only the jet-black dragon wood under their feet was the most conspicuous, so he lay down again, looking for suspicious existences around.

Kuroko bumped Tie Han's shoulder, "Tie Man, what are you looking for, Boss Lu?" I was a little confused at the beginning, let's climb to such a high place, just to see what it's like on it?"

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, hurry up and find it, if Xiaofan is satisfied, maybe I can give you a salary increase when I go back." ”

Kuroko had no choice but to follow behind the iron man, holding the broken spear head and continuing to bump and bump on the edge of the dragon wood, but his mouth was muttering, "There is nothing here at all, this wood is so hard, it is almost catching up with the weapons in our hands, I estimate that in the end it will be empty-handed, it is better to go back to a hotel to rest and rest, find a chick to step on the back, how comfortable!"

The iron man lazily talked to him about vulgar topics, buried his head in the connection between the stone and the dragon wood and dug deep, digging and digging, but the stone was dug up little by little, but the dragon wood was not damaged at all.

"How is this done, why is the dragon wood and stone so complete, is there still such a skilled architect among the Mongols?"

Tie Han shook his head, this shouldn't be the problem he was thinking, he was just a follower, he did whatever Lu Yunfan asked him to do, wasting so many brain cells, he felt that all the brain damage in his life was caused by this.

Inserting the broken scimitar into the gap dug out, he still wanted to try to see if he could pry a little, but this time it seemed that he had pried some mechanism, and before the blade broke, there was a clicking sound inside the dragon wood.

Lu Yunfan suddenly heard the voice, pulled Tang Yifei and quickly got up and stepped back, Long Mu began to tremble, as if there was some huge gear mechanism running below.

"Iron man, what did you pestle?" Kuroko asked.

"How the hell do I know?" said the iron man Canglang pulled out the half of the broken knife, but the clicking sound did not stop because he drew the knife.

"What the hell did you move?" the clicking sound continued, and their feet continued to tremble, like an earthquake, and Kuroko thought that there was another landslide again, and hurriedly scolded the iron man.

"Can you shut me up?"

"I'm still in the mood to shut up, if I die, I have to pull you back!"

Tie Han was so angry that he simply ignored him, stepped over the trembling dragon wood, and went straight to Lu Yunfan, no matter when, he did not forget his duty as a bodyguard, and protecting Lu Yunfan was always his most important responsibility.

When Kuroko saw that Tie Han had run away, he felt numb and itchy all over his body when he thought about those insects, and he also ran over.

The four of them gathered together, retreated a few meters, and waited quietly to see what would happen after the bracket.

After all, not long ago, there was a landslide here, although the reason has now been clarified, but they are still afraid of a second occurrence, afraid of making up for the catastrophe they were lucky enough to escape.

The clicking sound gradually became smaller, but nothing changed, the stone platform was still the same stone platform, and the dragon wood was still the same dragon wood.

Several people went from being frightened to being dumbfounded.

"Tie Han, where did you move just now, go and move again!" After waiting for a while, Lu Yunfan saw that there was no longer movement, so he pushed the iron man beside him.

"I didn't know where I had just moved, I just stuck a broken knife into a crack in the stone. ”

"Then go and plug it in again, go quickly!" Lu Yunfan urged, and Tie Han had no choice but to return to his original position, picked up the scimitar he had just thrown away, and inserted it again according to the place where he had just inserted it, but this time there was no reaction.

Lu Yunfan asked from afar, "Did you insert it?"

The iron man nodded.

Lu Yunfan wondered, "How could there be no response?

Ignorance is terrible, Lu Yunfan now feels his sense of powerlessness that he has no clue about this kind of mechanism, without logic, it is difficult to analyze how to start, I don't know how to start, just by luck, how good luck does it have to be to find the mechanism one after another?

Just like when they enter the cave in the stone pit, if it weren't for the small stone that takes them out at the end of the cave, they probably have to go back the way they came.
