Chapter 17 The sun rises in the east and sets in the valleys of mountains and rivers

"Maybe it's a swap of identities!" Lin Qi kicked the corpse under his feet away in disgust, "The poison of rats is less than that of snakes, but I have only recovered from being bitten by rats, and it is not poisonous after being bitten by snakes so many times, which is not logical." In addition, the nest of snakes and rats is strange, and snakes are still afraid of rats, so there should be some reason why the body size of the two has changed. What we have to do now is to find the cause and lift! ”

Qi Wuxian thought for a moment, and suggested going to their cave.

The group came to the entrance of the cave, which was a deep underground pit, and the bottom seemed to turn a corner, and the environment below could not be seen clearly.

"Let's go down and have a look, can you wrap this rat king, uh, snake?" Lin Qi proposed.

The duck egg tried, "No, I'll just take it, it's okay, it's not in the way!" ”

"Awesome!" Lin Qi admired.

After jumping into the cave one by one, they found that there was a cave inside, and there was an underground river flowing from here.

It was a giant nest, so to speak, with nothing special in it, except for a depression covered with dry leaves and grass branches. There is also a white round thing in the center, which is very bright in the slightly dim underground.

"This can't be a snake egg, right?" Ziyu was surprised.

Lin Qi stepped forward and prepared to pick it up.

"I'll go, this thing suddenly gets stronger!" The duck eggs suddenly spat out a fragrant mouth.

Lin Qi stared at the snake for a while, "This should be it!" Pointing to the white egg that was not moving in the nest, he said, "Look how much it reacts!" So saying, he took the white egg in his hand.

"It's pretty heavy!" sighed, looking at the snake struggling more and more powerful in the hands of the duck egg, "It's a pity that it can't speak, otherwise it can threaten!" ”

"Alright, stop playing, time is running out!" Qi Wuxian reminded the group of people watching the excitement, and then reached for the egg, bringing it close to the snake that kept writhing.

Slightly closer, a burst of white light flashed, and a black mouse appeared on the arm of the duck egg, and the tail was pink and white. Before everyone could react, they saw it snatch the egg from Qi Wuji's hand in the blink of an eye and run away without a trace.

At this time, the sound of the system sounds, prompting the clearance.

"Haha, this rat is too pitiful!" Rong Feng, who reacted, laughed.

Rice gave him a paw, "Okay, hurry up to the next level, this time is wasted!" ”

Walking in the direction of the underground river, there was no one along the way except the sound of water, the temperature under the ground was very wet and cold, and several people kept rubbing their hands to prevent freezing and not fighting for a while.

System: "Ding! Trigger [Repeat, Escape], please clear the level within 30 minutes, the timeout mission fails! ”

Hint: This is a decryption level, please press the button on the center pillar at the exact moment for a total of three chances.

In front of him is a large circular platform, with twelve square stones less than a cubic meter in size, and in the center is a pillar about one meter and a half high, and a red stone on it should be the so-called button.

Rong Feng walked around a few stones, "What does this mean, let's put up a stone formation?" ”

"You see, these stones will change, and they will be bright for a while, and they will be extinguished for a while!" Duck egg reminder.

"Each person is responsible for one stone, write down the time of change, and you and I are responsible for two pieces of milk tea!" Kai walked to one of the stones without a trace, ready to time.

Everyone was silent, staring at the stone in front of them.

"19 seconds!"

"23 or 24 seconds, I'm not sure."

“......”

"In this way, this piece is the shortest, and the transformation time should be about two seconds to increase this way." Lin Qi pointed to the piece in front of him, and then rotated it counterclockwise, "But it's not very difficult to find this rule, it should be that these stones are required to be bright and dark." ”

"No, do you want all the stones to light up?" Rice lamented.

"At this moment, let's see if there is any other information around, and when this stone is fully bright, it is better to return the copy directly!" There is no quarrel with the world, and he said quietly.

"Hahaha, I have learned to scare people without fighting, hahaha, our team is all cuties!" Rong Feng laughed out loud and patted Radish Chong's shoulder with a disgusted face.

The people around also chuckled, and the team was much more active.

Lin Qi walked around the wall and didn't notice anything unusual. Everyone else was looking around, but they didn't find anything.

"According to the urine nature of the game, it shouldn't be so easy to find clues, everyone is taking a serious look, don't miss it!" Kai Wuxian banged on the wall with his hands.

Lin Qi stood under the round platform, looking at the ever-changing stones, thinking, "The cycle repeats, the last stone takes 37 seconds to change, and the first stone has changed twice when he changes, 30 seconds ......" Lin Qi looked at the wall on the other side of the underground river, "Then here, try it!" ”

Fly forward and scrape off a layer of the wall with a gun, revealing the inside of it.

"I'll go, awesome!" Rong Feng couldn't help but praise when he saw the few words that appeared, "Milk tea, how do you know that there is a problem here?" Asked everyone's doubts.

Seeing that his guess was correct, Lin Qi turned to the walls on the other two sides, peeling off a layer.

They reveal "sunrise in the east", "sunset over mountains and rivers", and "sunset over river valleys".

Here's an explanation, {Think of the entire round table as a clock for the sake of explanation.} The block due east is 3, and it is arranged in this way.

Starting from 3, each stone counterclockwise needs to add two seconds to the previous stone's transformation time, so between 8 and 7 transformations, 3 has already started the second round of transformation, corresponding to the clues in between.

Continuing above, 4 requires a transformation time of 37 seconds, minus the initial 15 seconds, and then finds 22 on the clock between 11 and 12.

Add the final initial 15, which is the position of three, to make up the clue.

The cycle goes on and on, and that's the key. }

After listening to Lin Qi's words, Rong Feng said that he was ignorant, Lin Qi clapped his hands and said, "Actually, I am also blind, let's look at the clues first!" ”

"The sunrise in the east, it is not difficult to understand, that is, the stone is bright, and the sunset mountains and rivers valley should be the corresponding stone dark, but there is a question, which one of 7 and 8, 11 and 12 is it!" Qi Wuxian kept up with Lin Qi's train of thought and directly pointed out the problem, "It won't really be luck, just guess!" ”

"This suits a comrade, Prince of Luck!" Lin Qi smiled and teased.

A group of people still didn't dare to try it easily, but after looking for a few circles, they scraped several layers of surrounding walls like Lin Qi, and there were still no clues.

In the end, it was decided that a lucky prince would fight, press the button!

After waiting for 3 to be bright, 11 to be dark and 7 to be dark, "I pressed it!" ”
