29. Ming Yi to Jin (C)
Xiang You'er was startled, and hurriedly took a few steps back, he knew that gunpowder would not only explode when it encountered fire, but also explode when it was violently impacted, so he didn't know what was at stake, not only did he have fire in his hand, but he also kicked the gunpowder bag violently. If the gunpowder is provoked and he is blown up, his young master's heroic soul will return to the West, and I don't know how to conclude the sixteen-character comment after returning to the West!
He knew it was powerful at this time, so he carefully stepped back, lit the candle in the lamp on the wall, far away from the gunpowder bag, after placing the light source, he tiptoed forward and lit those gunpowder bags, and after counting, there were as many as 100 bags, Xiang Youer was surprised in his heart, and he already knew that this should be the "arsenal" in the last words of Prince Zhaoming in the stone room of the scriptures, and it seems that the "burying the dead crossbow" mentioned in the last words should not be false. Xiang You'er thought in her heart, thinking that twenty years ago, the armor here was excellent and the gunpowder was sufficient, if she wanted to rebel, she would be murderous when she thought about it, but she didn't want to be buried in the dust because of Prince Zhaoming's benevolence.
Xiang You'er is a ruffian, and he is also a brave and ruthless person, seeing so many weapons at this moment, his heart inevitably jumps a little, so he squatted in front of the gunpowder bag, grabbed a handful of gunpowder and rubbed it in his hand. It's also strange to say that when these gunpowders rubbed back and forth in their palms, the "innate fire" seemed to echo, and they began to move from the sea of qi, Xiang Youer was startled, threw down the gunpowder in his hand, and when he was paying attention to his dantian, he heard the "grunt" in his stomach.
He had been tossing in the ground for five or six hours since he fell into the cave last night, and counting the coma a few days ago, he should have eaten potion gruel, so he was already hungry at this time. Fortunately, he is used to the hard life of hunger and a full meal, and now it is not barrier-free to hold on, but the hunger is stirring, and he is irritable again, so he is looking for a mechanism to get out. Suddenly, he thought that the entrance was still open, and he couldn't help but feel that tonight's encounter was too bizarre, and when he came up, he forgot to pay attention to whether the entrance was closed, and then he turned around to look, but saw that the entrance was no different from when he entered, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. When I looked around the entrance, I found that there were uneven walls next to the entrance, and when I brushed away the dust, there were two small brackets on the top and bottom, and there were wishful grooves on them, which were obviously the same as the mechanisms I saw along the way.
Xiang You'er couldn't help but secretly scold herself for being stupid, generally speaking, the machine should be located in a place that is easy to control, there are so many weapons here, if it is located far away from the entrance of the cave, it is not convenient to transport! Xiang You'er no longer hesitated, put the Ruyi piece on the bracket below, pressed and turned, but saw that the entrance that had just come up slowly closed. Seeing this, Xiang Youer thought about it secretly, so he went to press the upper bracket again, but the wall in front of him slowly moved away, the dust was on his face, and an upward step appeared in front of him, Xiang Youer was already exhausted at this time, but he still paid attention, and walked up cautiously, and when he walked out of the road, he raised the candle and shone it around, but he couldn't help but be surprised, it turned out that the place he was in at this time turned out to be the same as the first stone room with a long table and wooden chairs that he climbed from the willow hole!
Did you go around in a big circle and come back again?
Xiang You'er was extremely depressed for a while, and secretly wondered if he had really encountered the legendary ghost hitting the wall, but at this time, he heard the creaking of his feet, and the passage when he came up was slowly closing, Xiang You'er hurriedly slapped the ground around the passage, but did not find the mechanism, but choked on the dust.
I only heard a heavy and muffled sound of "popping", the passage was completely closed, Xiang You'er sat on the ground with a candle beside him, at a loss, and suddenly, a glimmer of light flashed in his heart!
No, this stone chamber was quite different from the one he had been to!
Yes, it's dust!
He remembered that when he climbed into the first stone room from the earth cave, he saw that there was a wooden lantern in the stone room, and the long table was clean and dust-free, and now this stone room not only did not have a permanent lamp that could burn for several days, but even the table was covered with a thin layer of dust, although it was not as dusty as the scripture room and arsenal of Fang Cai, but it was also like no one had arrived for a long time, so ......
This stone chamber was not the first stone chamber he had ever experienced!
Thinking about this section, Xiang You'er no longer panicked, nor did she think about why there were two identical stone rooms, but just carried candles around to take care of them. He thought about it at this time, and remembered that he had crawled from the hole in the earth, and that there was a hole in the wall of the stone room before he could enter it, and that he was sitting at the long table, and threw a stone backwards, as if it had smashed into the bookshelf behind him, and only then did he see the mourning hall, so the mechanism should be on the bookshelf!
So Xiang Youer held a candle to the bookshelf, and looked for a long time without getting the essentials, but saw that there was a book on the bookshelf alone, Xiang Youer was bored, picked up the book and looked at it, only to see that it was covered with dust, but the paper was quite new. Xiang Youer took a closer look, and saw a few big words written on the cover, "Xuandu City"!
Xiang You'er was puzzled, opened it and took a look, only after reading a few pages, but she was so surprised that she almost didn't scream!
It turns out that this atlas is nothing else, it is the underground tunnel layout of the capital!
Hundreds of lines are densely packed on the map, and the distribution is very large, almost the whole capital is included, see Xiang Youer was surprised, the map uses triangles, squares and circles to represent the location of the stone chamber, there are only four squares, and there are many triangles and circles. And the four square signs are in the southeast and northwest of the capital, which should be the place where all parties respond, and all four places are named after the four divine beasts.
He took a closer look and identified the location of the Xie family's abandoned garden in the south of the city, but there was a location marked as Xuanwu, and he was in the place at the moment...... According to the picture, Xiang You'er looked at the specific sign on the side of the long table, and determined that this should be in the position of this white tiger, and it is also the core of one side, and this core is very connected, so the way to open the mechanism is also very different. Xiang You'er's scalp was numb when he saw it, and he knew that he had really hit a big luck today, and he saw this atlas here, if he accidentally pressed the wrong mechanism, he might have to wander in this dungeon for the rest of his life, and finally became an immortal ghost.
Thinking of the ghost, Xiang You'er shuddered, and no longer delayed, so she found the mechanism that went out according to the picture, turned the mechanism, put the atlas into her arms, and walked up with a long sword and candle. When I got out of the last passage, I saw that the sky above was bright, but it turned out to be in a dry well.
When Xiang Youer saw the light of day again, her heart suddenly brightened, and she saw a rope running vertically down the well, which seemed to have been used to hang buckets in the past, so Xiang Youer was not polite, and climbed up with the rope. When she arrived at the well, Xiang You'er first went out to look around, but she couldn't help but cry out bitterly in her heart - it turned out that this was actually the courtyard of a large family, and it seemed that she was still in the middle!
In the stone room of the scriptures, a thin old man with a lamp stood in front of Prince Zhaoming's bookcase, looking at the skeleton sitting obliquely, silently.
Zhaoming boy, you are kind and benevolent, and you intend to go to hell to replace others, but do you know that eighteen families, fifty or sixty thousand innocent people died in this battle for the throne!
Ten friends of Zhaoming? Twenty-three righteousness? How many people are left today? The white candle of this spiritual platform is empty, how much of the righteousness of the past remains? How much does the youthful ambition remain?
Twenty years, some people have escaped, some people have changed, some people have obeyed, some people have died, these are all what you Zhaoming kid is willing to see?
Twenty years have passed, and the Ming Yin has reappeared, but it was taken away by that little ruffian, is this also the mercy in your eyes......
But can that little ruffian really inherit your legacy?
The old man shook his head, turned around and walked slowly towards the mourning hall.
"Book of Qi": "In the autumn of the forty-second year of the founding of the Yuan Dynasty, Wuzong had lung disease, and he could not go away, when Sima Qiwu wanted to support Prince Zhaoming as the emperor, but on the contrary, trapped Wuzong in the West Palace on the 20th, King Yuzhang led his troops to quell the rebellion, and went to capture Sima Qiwu in three days. This is the Sima case of the three major cases of Jianyuan, this case involves a wide range, Zhaoming family, all 18 families, are punished for treason, more than 50,000 people sit together. ”
