Chapter 683: The Divine Pill Appears (Part II)
"Brother Yi Yang, be careful, it's better not to mess with the things inside, so as not to touch the mechanism, that would be very dangerous!"
Seeing that Yi Yang stretched out his hand towards the strange black box on the pillow of Qin Shi Huang's head, Bai Wenchao hurriedly shouted.
Yi Yang shook his head casually and said, "Probably not, now that the coffin lid has been opened, if there is really any dangerous mechanism here, then there will be a response a long time ago." ”
Bai Wenchao said: "It's better to be careful, don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case, once you touch the dangerous organ, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”
Yi Yang smiled slightly, still not caring, he didn't think much about it at the moment, stretched out his hand, and directly picked up the black box that was placed with the crown.
The box is not very large, about five inches long, boxy, and square-shaped.
Although this box is not big, it looks heavy in the hand, as if it is full of treasures.
"I didn't really react!" Seeing that Yi Yang picked up the box safe and sound, Bai Wenchao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, it seemed that he was too worried, there was no hidden mechanism in the coffin, maybe Yi Yang would have seen through it a long time ago, otherwise he would not have taken it so lightly.
"Brother Yi Yang, open the box and see, what big treasure is inside." Bai Wenchao immediately said, he was very curious, and he couldn't wait to know the treasure contained in the box, maybe it was really the legendary elixir of immortality.
Yi Yang picked up the box with both hands, flipped through it, shook his head and said, "I can't open it." ”
"Can't open it?" Bai Wenchao was surprised, "Why? ”
Immediately, he leaned over and looked at the box that Yi Yang was holding.
Yi Yang nodded solemnly and said, "Yes." The box appears to be completely closed, without any locking holes, so it can't be opened, and it can't be opened with a key. ”
"How so?" Bai Wenchao was puzzled, "Isn't this a box for things, but just a quadrangular thing, except for the material, there is nothing special about it?" ”
Yi Yang shook his head without hesitation and said, "No, this must be a box with things inside, but it is definitely not easy to open it." ”
"I don't understand what you mean." Bai Wenchao looked at him puzzled, pondered for a moment and said, "You mean to say that this is a box in itself, but the opening is very hidden and not easy to open, isn't that the case?" ”
Yi Yang nodded and said, "Well, that's pretty much it." If you take a closer look, the material of this box is actually not special, it is wooden, but it should be made of relatively dense wood such as ebony, so it looks heavier. If you look at this side again, this should be the lid side, and the secret is on it! ”
Following the direction of his finger, Bai Wenchao took a closer look at what he called the "box lid", and it was obvious that there was an abnormality on it, there seemed to be a lot of small pieces of wood, and the wood chips were painted with fine patterns, which at first glance looked like pieces of small reliefs.
"There's wood chips on it." After seeing it clearly, Bai Wenchao blurted out.
Yi Yang nodded lightly and said, "Yes, there are wood chips." However, these pieces of wood are not fixed to them, they are arbitrary, their distribution can make a lot of sense, and each piece of wood can move. ”
"Why is that? Is this a jigsaw puzzle? Putting the wood chips together into a complete picture can open the box? Bai Wenchao asked repeatedly.
Yi Yang nodded vigorously and said with a smile: "You guessed it, the mystery on this is the mechanism puzzle, this is a mechanism puzzle box." There are a total of 9981 small pieces of wood on the lid of this box, and the 81 patterns on the pieces of wood are put together, and if they are put together, the box will be automatic, otherwise it will not be opened. ”
Bai Wenchao said indifferently: "Puzzles, isn't that a children's puzzle game?" It's easy to crack. I've been playing with this thing since I was very young, and it's supposed to be similar to a Rubik's Cube game item. ”
Yi Yang said: "Don't underestimate this puzzle mechanism, you must know that there are a total of ninety-nine eighty-one pieces of wood on it, and if you go wrong, you will lose everything, hehe, this is not something that children can play, but for adults to play, and those who don't understand the mechanism puzzle and I Ching gossip and other related knowledge are basically impossible to crack." If you don't believe me, try it and see if you can put the patterns on the wood chips together. ”
As he spoke, he handed the box to Bai Wenchao, and Bai Wenchao also took it, and then thought about it for a while and began to do it.
He tried to push the wood chips on top to make it a complete picture.
But after half an hour, he had no clue, and his mind was a mess.
"No more!" In the end, Bai Wenchao had no choice but to give up, and said with a wry smile, "Brother Yi Yang, you are right, this can't be put together, eighty-one pieces of wood are mutually restrictive, and if you take a wrong step, you can't do it, so you have to take the first step correctly, so that you can put together the desired pattern, activate the mechanism, and open the box." ”
Yi Yang smiled: "You can figure it out, if it's really that simple, then Qin Shi Huang won't use it to hide the secret treasure." The wisdom of the ancients is unfathomable and unfathomable. ”
"You're well-informed, it's better for you to get it, you'll definitely be able to crack this puzzle." Bai Wenchao said, and then handed the box back to Yi Yang.
Yi Yang said: "I'm not too sure, so I can only give it a try." ”
"Is there any trick? There should be a pattern to follow, right? Bai Wenchao asked curiously.
Yi Yang replied 1510: "Our Chinese nation has a civilization of 5,000 years, which can be described as capable people and strange people, and there are endless ones. Among them, there are many kinds of puzzles, such as four-four puzzles, four-six puzzles, six-six puzzles, six-nine puzzles, and ninety-nine puzzles. I saw the game of the puzzle by chance in an ancient book, and if you want to crack the mechanism, the key is to find the 'picture eye' first. ”
"'Picture Eye'? What is a 'picture eye'? Bai Wen was puzzled.
Yi Yang said: "The so-called 'picture eye', which is the eye of the whole picture, is the most critical. Ninety-nine-eighty-one puzzle, there were originally eighty-one small pieces of wood, these small pieces of wood together, can be put together into a complete picture, but now in fact, there are only eighty pieces on it, one of which is missing, that piece of small piece of wood is missing, the pattern painted on it is gone, and the corresponding puzzle is missing that part. Find the eye and push the other pieces of wood, it will be easier to complete the puzzle, so the key now is to find out the eye and see where it is. ”
As he spoke, he fumbled around the lid of the box, but for a long time it seemed fruitless, or unsure.
Then he tried to put it together, but tried many times, and each time he got it wrong, and he had to start all over again.
"Brother Yi Yang, can't you spell it well?" After a long time, seeing that Yi Yang still didn't succeed, Bai Wenchao couldn't help but ask.
Yi Yang nodded and said, "Yes, I said it wasn't that easy. It's hard to find.,It looks like you can't open this trap box by relying on the two of us.。 ”
Bai Wenchao said: "Actually, it's easy to open it, don't we have a sword, that sword is so sharp, sharpening iron like clay, I think it's very simple to use it to cut open this box, just go down with a knife." ”
Yi Yang shook his head heavily and denied: "That's not going to work!" ”
"Why?" Bai Wenchao said suspiciously.
Yi Yang said: "That sword is very easy to split this box, but according to the relevant information I found from the ancient books, this method is very unwise, because if you use a strong technique to open the box, the self-destruct device inside it will be activated, even if it is not the explosion of the whole box, it will damage the treasure placed inside, so it is not advisable to do it, or take your time, I think sooner or later I will find the picture eye, and then it will not be far from opening the box." ”
"Well, then don't use brute force to open it, find the picture eye, follow the established rules, you are so smart, there must be no problem!" Bai Wenchao nodded in agreement.
After finishing speaking, Yi Yang continued to grope for the position of the figure eye on the lid of the box, I don't know how long it took, only to hear him cheer and shout: "Found it, finally found it!" ”
Bai Wenchao hurriedly asked, "Did you find the location of the picture eye?" ”
Yi Yang nodded and said, "Yes, I have found the picture eye, and it will be easy to do later." ”
After finding the location of the picture, he struck while the iron was hot, and busily pushed the small pieces of wood on it.
It didn't take long for him to exhale and smile, "It's already been put together." ”
"Really?" Bai Wenchao looked intently, and sure enough, those small pieces of wood had been put together.
The patterns drawn on the wood chips are also put together to form a complete picture.
The picture shows a dragon with teeth and claws, and the dragon pattern is very complete, but a small part is missing, and the missing part is the dragon's eyes.
"Brother Yi Yang, you are too powerful!" Bai Wenchao exclaimed, "You really spelled out the picture, and now what you spell out is a dragon, and that dragon doesn't have an eye, it must be what you called the picture eye, and this small part is indeed missing." ”
Yi Yang responded: "Yes, it should be like this." ”
Bai Wenchao said strangely: "But why is it spelled out, but there is no response?" Isn't that right, or is it not a puzzle at all? ”
Yi Yang smiled: "There is one last step. Now the movable piece of wood can be pushed towards the position of the eye. ”
He carefully placed the wooden box on the ground, and then pushed the small piece of wood that was still able to move as he said, so that it could be pushed to the position of the picture.
As soon as I pushed it to the position of the picture, I heard a crisp sound of "pop", and the mechanism seemed to pop open.
Later, Yi Yang gently pulled up, and the lid of the box opened.
After the lid of the box was opened, the contents of the box were undoubtedly revealed, and they met the eyes of Yi Yang and Bai Wenchao.
It was two black balls, like pills.
The elixir of life!
The moment the box was opened, Yi Yang and Bai Wenchao's minds jumped into such an idea at the same time.
