26. Genting Promenade
With that, the three of us began to walk towards the open stone door.
We're going to decide on the ghost hall or something.
Entering the stone gate, the stone steps stretch from behind the door to a very high place.
We began to walk towards the stone steps, on the stone steps with no end in sight, there was no pattern, the quaint stone steps were cut out of the hard rock wall, I don't know how long we walked, and finally saw that there were no steps, and two huge stone pillars appeared on both sides of the end of the stone steps. The two stone pillars are exactly the same.
Each has a bronze phoenix bird on the top. The phoenix bird with wings spread, the two phoenix birds present a primitive and simple intention wind, although it seems simple but very expressive. The tail feathers of the phoenix bird are coiled on the stone pillars, wrapping most of the stone pillars, but there is no place to wrap them, and a large area of moire is carved on the stone pillars, and the combination of the two materials complements each other perfectly.
We looked at these two stone pillars and were amazed, the wisdom of the ancients really made us immeasurable.
Ascending to the top of the stone steps, a pattern on the ground catches our eye, and a square is drawn in the outer circular pattern, and the whole circle is divided into five parts very evenly, and the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth are marked with oracle bone inscriptions.
I looked at this pattern, and suddenly remembered that I was very bored for a while, and I watched a news, and there was actually someone surnamed God, so I was bored and searched for strange surnames on the Internet, and there was a very special surname - ghost (wei), and the word ghost should be read wei when used in surnames. Their ancestors were called the Guiyu District according to the records of the "Historical Records - Feng Zen Book" and the "Historical Records - Xiaowu Benji", and it was he who assisted the emperor in inventing the Five Elements and One Theory. The people of this surname are a multi-origin and multi-ethnic clan. There is also a very important thing that this ethnic group has a deep connection with witchcraft.
"Looks like you've come to the right place." I said to Brother Neng and Mi Ye.
"Xiao Linzi, did you find anything?" Brother Neng asked.
I nodded and said, "This is not called the Ghost Palace, it should be called the Ghost (Wei) Palace, this is a clan that is very good at divination and witchcraft, this should be a divination and sacrifice palace, not a mausoleum." ”
In order to analyze my analysis and Nengge Miye, everyone thinks this statement is more reliable.
Since this is not a netherworld mansion, it is very correct with what Jian Hanyi said. It seems that the Sacrificial Tomb clan has been fooled by the Great Witch Zhu.
"Let's keep walking." I said.
We went behind the stone pillars, and a very long corridor appeared in front of us, and there were no guardrails on either side of the one-zhang-wide corridor. The rock wall above my head is also about two feet high from the ground, and I looked at the left and right, and I could feel the presence of moisture on one side, but it was very dry on the other.
"What the hell is this?" Brother Neng asked, looking at the bottomless darkness below the corridor.
"It should be the two caves we went into, the one on the left is where my brother got the snake knife, and the one on the right should be the cave where we went into a body of water before." Mi Ye analyzed.
After hearing this, Brother Neng chiseled a rock from the rock wall with a military shovel and threw it into the black abyss on the right.
Puff~
The sound of rocks entering the water could be heard in the cavern, and there was even a response in the empty cavern.
It seems that Mi Ye's analysis is very correct. The two caves we visited are now on either side of us.
"Wait, look, what's on top?" I said to Brother Neng and Mi Ye.
On the top of the two-zhang high rock, there are two rows, and the squares on one row are carved with five patterns: the green dragon, the white tiger, the vermilion bird, the Xuanwu and the phoenix bird that is very similar to the red bird. And the other row is really blank with five squares.
Brother Neng, they were attracted by my words and withdrew the foot they were about to take out.
"This can't be a mechanism, right? Take a wrong step and die without a place to be buried. Brother Neng withdrew his foot and asked with some fear.
"Looks like it should be, you see the blocks stretch all the way to the opposite side." I said.
"So how do we get there? Pick a favorite pattern? How do you get past that blank line? Brother Neng asked puzzled.
"Why do you want to add a phoenix bird to the four divine beasts? Isn't this the kind of Suzaku that? Mi Ye asked.
"I don't know, but if you take a closer look, these phoenix birds are all facing different directions." I looked at the phoenix bird on the square and said.
As I spoke, I took out my armor shovel, and learned from Brother Neng's previous example, and also chiseled five rocks, I threw a stone at the place corresponding to the first phoenix bird, and the stone fell steadily on it, and then I also threw a piece at the square corresponding to the green dragon, and the originally tightly knit ground suddenly appeared, leaking out some rotten and cut wooden stakes below. I tried the square corresponding to the white tiger again, and Dingshan instantly fired a flurry of arrows, shooting holes into the original ground. We felt a chill on our backs.
"This mechanism is too good, there is no connection between the top and bottom, how the hell did they do it?" Brother Neng looked at the square corresponding to the white tiger and asked.
"I don't know, but one thing I do know is that one wrong step here will kill you." I looked at the long corridor and said.
Now that the phoenix bird has shown us the way, it seems that it is not difficult to walk through.
I asked Brother Neng and Mi Ye, "Are you ready?" We're getting over. ”
Brother Neng and Mi Ye nodded, and followed my footsteps on the squares. Be careful with every step, for fear of stepping on the wrong piece and dying on the mechanism of the ancients.
"Wait~" I said to Brother Neng and Mi Ye while standing on a blank square.
"What's wrong? Why don't you go, stop here and be scared. Brother Neng said.
"The pattern on the front has changed." I looked at the same as the one behind me, pointing to the phoenix block I was on.
The phoenix bird in front is not pointing to the blank row of squares in front, but in the opposite direction, and the phoenix birds in each row are not pointing to the blank squares. We stopped there and didn't know how to go down.
"Xiao Linzi, you can try it with a stone again." Brother Neng said.
I nodded, fortunately the stone I took just now was not thrown by me, I threw the stone directly on the square corresponding to the phoenix bird, very good, no problem, but what about the blank one? The last stone in my hand, I thought about the phoenix bird pattern that was still outside the interval.
Puff~
The stone fell smoothly on it.
"It seems that the empty space cannot be stepped on." Mi Ye looked at the two stones and said.
I looked at the rocks in the distance and felt a little helpless. Although we know that the pattern of the phoenix bird corresponds to the way of life, how to cross it in the face of a two-meter square is the biggest problem we face. After all, there is still half of the promenade waiting for us to pass by.
