Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Bequest of Tu Lao
"Danding has opened three thousand laws, and there is no one for mercy and ruthlessness...... Could it be that this stone cave was once a place where ancient immortal cultivators retreated and retreated?"
Liang Chen shone it with a flashlight, and read out the couplets on both sides of the stone gate one by one, these fonts are crooked, and they have been sealed for too long, and many of the handwriting is not very clear. Turning around, Liang Chen saw that Wang Xuanming was tinkering with the mechanism on the other side of the stone door, which was a rusty heavy gear turntable, and on the turntable, there was also a hand to grab the handle, it seemed that as long as he turned the gear turntable, he could open the stone door.
Wang Xuanming nodded slightly: "Maybe it is the place where those worldly masters lived in seclusion in ancient times, but according to legend, those immortal mountains and blessed lands should not be among the famous mountains and rivers with beautiful mountains and rivers?
This is not difficult to explain, in ancient times, there were many wars, and the dynasties changed frequently, perhaps in order to avoid being affected, so they dug a hole to hide. As for whether this kind of place can cultivate immortals and cultivate the Dao, only the ghosts know!"
Liang Chen turned around and asked casually, "Lao Wang, can that mechanism still work?"
"The handle has been moved, presumably Tu Lao often came in before his death, Brother Liang, you get out of the way, I'll open this mechanism!"
"Wait!"
Without waiting for Wang Xuanming to touch the mechanism, Liang Chen hurriedly stepped forward and swept around Wang Xuanming with a flashlight, and finally his eyes fell on a relatively clean position: "Lao Wang, look at that position, it is extremely smooth, it seems that every time Tu Lao comes in, he stands behind the gear switch, what does this mean? This means that to open this mechanism, it must also be carried out in strict steps, in case there are other mechanisms on this stone door, but it will catch us off guard!"
"Makes sense!"
Wang Xuanming hurriedly took two steps back and stood where he should have been standing, and Liang Chen also quickly retreated behind Wang Xuanming, so, Wang Xuanming immediately grabbed the handle on the gear with both hands and turned it hard, but when he heard the sound of the gear "clicking", it was less than a circle, and he saw that among the inconspicuous holes on the stone door, rows of sharp dark arrows suddenly flew out, and rushed out...... "Huh?"
"Turn it around!"
Looking at those dark and sharp dark arrows, Liang Chen immediately stopped Wang Xuanming in a deep voice and asked him to reverse the mechanism.
Wang Xuanming reacted instantly, hurriedly grabbed the gear handle, and reversed it back little by little, sure enough, just returned the gear mechanism to its original position, those dark arrows stopped, and then, with the continuous rotation of the gear mechanism, only to hear the heavy stone door in front of him, and immediately came out with a heavy "boom", Wang Xuanming's eyes widened slightly, and quickly turned again, sure enough, the heavy stone door that was about a foot thick was staggered little by little, until it was completely opened.
"It's open!"
Wang Xuanming screamed in surprise, but just as he wanted to let go of his hand, he saw that the gear mechanism automatically retreated, and as the gear retreated round and round, the stone door automatically closed. Wang Xuanming grabbed the handle of the gear, and Shimen also stopped at the same time: "This, what's the matter with this mechanism?
"Hehe, you may not have a relationship with the treasure in the treasure vault!"
Liang Chen walked to the entrance of the treasure vault with a smile, but he didn't rush in, but turned his head to look at Wang Xuanming, who was depressed: "Why don't I go in and move everything out?"
"Brother Liang, how can I do that! It's hard to come here, so let me go into the treasure house and have a look! Otherwise, what a pity this must be? By the way, I still have a screwdriver on me, which can be embedded in the gear, so that the gear can't be rotated, as long as the gear can be fixed, the mechanism can no longer operate, hehe!"
Wang Xuanming immediately freed up a hand and found a screwdriver from his body, but the screwdriver had just been embedded in the gear, and as soon as his hand was released, he only heard a crisp sound of "bang", and the screwdriver was crushed and broken. Wang Xuanming was almost stunned: "This, this pressure is too great, right? The gears can't be fixed at all, this is trouble! If we don't fix the stone gate, once we go in and the stone gate closes, then we won't be able to get out?"
"You really want to go in?"
Liang Chen smiled.
"Of course you want to go in, Brother Liang, do you have a way?"
Wang Xuanming asked anxiously.
Liang Chen sighed lightly: "If my guess is correct, this mechanism is probably deliberately broken by Tu Lao, and this treasure house is probably in and out, so after we go in, we must not let the stone door be closed, otherwise we will probably never be able to get out!"
"The weight of this stone gate is at least about two thousand catties, you can imagine how much pressure this gear has, Brother Liang, is your dagger okay?"
Wang Xuanming scanned Liang Chen's dagger with suspicion, and finally increased his strength and turned the gears to the end, and the stone gate was completely contained in the stone crack. At this time, Liang Chen forcefully embedded the M9 saber into the gear, seeing this, the two glanced at each other, Wang Xuanming let go of his hand little by little, but saw that the gear turned back suddenly, but it was stuck by the M9 saber, and he could no longer move.
"I don't know how long this M9 saber can last, time waits for no one, let's hurry up and get in!"
Liang Chen frowned, and immediately turned around and rushed into the treasure house, and Wang Xuanming didn't dare to hesitate for a moment, and followed Liang Chen's footsteps and walked in.
Wang Xuanming had not yet stood still in the dark treasure house, and the flashlight in his hand inadvertently shone on a reflective object, only to see a strong light refracted from it, only to stab Liang Chen and Wang Xuanming's eyes and hurriedly close them, and then Liang Chen found that it was actually a gossip mirror, and the mirror surface of the mirror was impartially facing the exit direction of the stone gate, and the position where Wang Xuanming was standing just now was just opposite the gossip mirror, so there was an embarrassing scene just now.
"There's not a lot of space here, it's like a sparrow's five organs, it's very complete!"
Liang Chen glanced at this legendary treasure house, there were bookshelves and chaise longues on the left, which were so life-like and emotional, and on the right was also a wooden shelf, but on it, there were some feng shui magic tools that could only be heard of in rumors!
There is also a stone table in the middle, there are a bunch of small feng shui instruments, the most central gossip mirror, as well as ancient money, jade rulers, dragon turtles, pixiu, copper gourds, etc., almost all the feng shui tools that can be thought of are here, and those that are unthinkable are also here. Liang Chen suddenly found that there was a candlestick on the side of the recliner, and immediately lit the candle, and the light instantly filled the entire treasure house. In particular, the candlelight is reflected on those various feng shui ritual vessels, reflecting a dazzling light of all colors, which is almost dazzling.
"Haha! Tu Lao is really interesting, he actually left so many good treasures for us, he really made a great contribution to the feng shui world!"
Wang Xuanming was carefully stroking those feng shui magic weapons, and he was so excited that he couldn't help laughing.
"There's a letter on that recliner, Lao Wang, come and see!"
Liang Chen walked slowly to the recliner, reached out and picked up the blank envelope, took out a piece of stationery inside, opened it and saw that it was indeed Tu Lao's lettering. However, at this moment, Wang Xuanming was concentrating on admiring the treasures of Tu Lao, how could he have any spare time to read the letters, Liang Chen saw that Wang Xuanming didn't seem to have any interest in the letters he was holding, so he had to smile bitterly and shake his head, and read it by himself......
"The secret technique of feng shui, according to the mountains and rivers, the secret in the sleeve, it is still easy!"
Tu Lao is worthy of a generation of feng shui masters, such a big breath, the first four lines of the poem, can show how far-reaching and vast Tu Lao's state of mind is, Liang Chen smiled, continue to look down...... "I can see this letter, it means that you have broken through the obstacles I have laid down, and you can inherit what I have learned all my life, why should we have known each other when we meet, although you and I have not been able to have a one-sided relationship, but I also hope that you can carry forward the hard work I have accumulated all my life, continue to learn for the past life, and open peace for all generations!"
"Tu Lao's mind is vast, and his realm is profound, which is really worthy of admiration!"
Liang Chen read the whole book, sighed deeply, raised his head slightly, but saw the ancient secret books neatly placed on the bookshelf, these must be the life's work that Tu Lao said in the book. Moreover, this letter is placed next to the bookshelf, in fact, it is a hint that the people who come in can inherit Tu Lao's mastery, rather than coveting those feng shui magic tools and antique literary toys. The real treasure is these Feng Shui secret techniques!
Understanding Tu Lao's good intentions, Liang Chen slowly put away the envelope, put it in his pocket, and turned around, but saw that Wang Xuanming was concentrating on studying a very strange Nine Palace Plate, Liang Chen smiled and said: "Lao Wang, we don't have much time, we have to go back to it as soon as possible and leave this Huwan Villa, so there is no need to delay any longer, divide these things as soon as possible, and then leave here!"
"Okay, okay! I'll wait for Brother Liang's words, you see so many good treasures, how should we divide them? By the way, I remember promising Brother Liang, once we can enter this treasure house, let you choose three things first, no matter what it is, you can pick whatever you want, and we will divide the rest equally, my old Wang has always been a talker, a spit and a nail, you pick first!"
Wang Xuanming really kept his promise, and without waiting for Liang Chen to bring it up first, he fulfilled his promise first.
