Chapter Thirty-Seven: Embattled, Two Choices

"Get a hundred taels of gold, don't get me Ji Bu Yinuo!"

It was also an inexplicable shout, only to see the figure in the room at the other end of the passage in front of him shaking, the lights were bright, and a man riding a tall horse, holding a broad-bladed heavy sword, led a group of cavalry to block the passage entrance tightly.

As a result, all four of our directions were blocked.

This time it was really blocked, and even the cannons in the artillery room we had just passed by turned their heads and pointed their muzzles at us.

Li Chenglong, who was behind him, also discovered this problem, gently patted me on the shoulder and asked, "Classmate Yan, what's going on, have we touched any mechanism again?"

"I don't know, we haven't touched anything along the way. ”

"Does the mechanism have to touch something to activate? Will there be any automatic operation, I think all the mechanisms should have a pattern to follow. Mr. Yan, if you tell us what you know, let's study it together. ”

Hearing Li Chenglong's words, I slowly took a deep breath to calm myself down.

He's right, but all organs must have rules to follow, and if you want to get out, you have to find the rules in them, and then crack them.

With this in mind, I slowly crouched down and drew a half-chess board on the ground by the light of my phone's flashlight.

The chess board is centered on the Chu River and Han realms, with two sides of red and black, and each of the two positions has nine longitudinal roads and five horizontal lines.

Suppose that the longitudinal road is divided into one to nine roads from right to left, and the horizontal line is divided into one to five lines from the "general" chess to the Chu River Han boundary. The location where Li Chenglong and I are now is the intersection of the third line and the seventh road, referred to as "the third line and the seventh road".

The room where the dozen or so Shenwu cannons we passed by just now was the "Three Lines and Eight Roads", and the person who shouted "Those who win the king of the world will be prosperous" appeared in the "Three Lines and Six Roads", and there were originally nearly 100 infantry warriors lined up on the "Four Lines and Seven Roads", and at this moment, such a cavalry of unknown origin appeared on the "Two Lines and Seven Roads", which was really embattled.

I looked at the chessboard I drew and thought about countermeasures, and Li Chenglong, who was beside me, suddenly patted me on the shoulder and said, "Classmate Yan, look over there, I have seen the person blocking there, the same one that blocked me and Huang Futian in the dead end at the beginning." ”

"Oh, which one?"

"It's a carriage ride. The one who shouted in his mouth, 'The one who wins the king of the world, will be Pei Gongye'. ”

"Take a carriage. That should be a car. ”

"What dwelling?"

"The car inside the chess. ”

I waved my hand to signal Li Chenglong to squat down, pointed to the grid line drawn on the ground and said to him: "Officer Li, the layout of this dungeon is the same as a chess board, chess." Have you been?"

"I know chess. But how do you know the layout of this dungeon?"

"My teacher told me. ”

"What does your teacher do?"

"Oops. Leave this alone, let's find a way out. Come, look here. This is where we are now. ”

"The location...... Seven-way artillery forest line?"

"Yes, Officer Li, you are an expert, you understand one thing. ”

Seeing Li Chenglong's words break through the mystery, I couldn't help but admire, but the other party didn't hear my words in my heart, but stared at the road map I drew and talked to himself.

"This position is the seven-way artillery forest line, so on the left is the eight-way artillery, which corresponds to the large number of artillery just seen. Above were the Seven Road Pawns, and there happened to be a large group of soldiers with spears in front of them. Then the right...... No, there shouldn't be a chess piece on the right. ”

"Why shouldn't it, when you play chess, you can move the 'car' here. ”

"You mean the pieces here can move?"

"A must. Have you forgotten that just now Huang Futian stole a token with a sheep, and the pawns on the ninth road followed him?"

"Can you still do that? If so, there are people directing these things that surround us now?"

"Not necessarily, the mechanism in this dungeon itself can make the chess pieces move and deal with outsiders. ”

"Can you still move? How does that work?"

"I don't know. Hey, you don't care if it's unprincipled. Let's first figure out the current situation. We have a pawn above, a cannon on the left, and a car on the right......"

"Wait!"

"What's wrong?"

Before I could finish my sentence, Li Chenglong opened his mouth to interrupt me.

"Mr. Yan, how do you know that there is a car on the right?"

"The troika pulls a general, this is the most classic chariot configuration, not what the car is. ”

"Maybe it's another chess piece. ”

"No way, I've studied it carefully, the troika is the 'car'. ”

"Have you studied? Have you seen this thing anywhere else?"

"Of course. Hey, no, I said Officer Li, where are you getting so many problems, what we have to do now is to find a way to get out, and we'll talk about it later, OK?"

"Okay, listen to you, you can go on. ”

Li Chenglong spread his hands innocently, so that I didn't have any temper at all.

Returning my gaze to the chessboard drawn on the ground, my mind was clouded for a moment.

"Hey, where did I just go?"

"You say, car. ”

"Oh, yes, car. Officer Li, didn't you say that when you and Huang Fantian came in, you let that 'car' be blocked in a dead end? How did you meet me after the car left?"

"Go straight down the road. ”

"Follow a road from the position of the car and meet the nine-way pawn, that is to say, this car is a nine-way car, and the location where you come in is here!"

I stretched out my hand and pointed to the "Nine Roads" and drew a circle on it with my fingertips.

"Officer Li, since you know chess, then I'll talk about it briefly. According to my guess, the correct exit for this dungeon should be at the location of the 'shogi', which should also be the only exit. But I don't know why the area around the dungeon has been destroyed, and other channels for external communication have appeared, and the place where you and Huang Futian came in should be the destroyed passage.

Now there are two options. One, you can go out on the 'shogi' side, but I don't know where it leads, and you know that we are deep underground now, and walking out of the dungeon does not mean that we can see the light of day again. Two, you can go out from where you came in, which is the 'car' chess here, and from here you go out of the landfill you talked about, but I'm not sure if you'll run into those Japanese again.

Both paths are risky, which one are you going to choose?" )
