Chapter 179 A mountain obstructs

"Walk through ten palaces in an instant...... How? "Fearless's jaw is almost dislocated.

"Don't be so surprised." I said slowly, "If you know the truth, you may want to scold me for throwing coins." ”

"Can I scold in advance?" Fearless.

"Don't worry, you have to eat the food one bite at a time, even flies should not be an exception." I said leisurely, "Next, let's start explaining the ......."

(It's a pity that Wan Wud'an wisely didn't answer this question.) οΌ‰

Sticking the big map to the wall, I took out a bamboo pole and pointed it.

"Look, guys, if we're in the Golden City right now, and our purpose is to go to this oasis in the middle of the desert, how should we go?" I ask questions.

"Walking on your feet? Camel riding? Riding a mule horse? Roll over? Carry it over? Fearless guessed quickly.

"Of course it's going straight away!" I announced the answer, "Will you first go around to Qizhou and then turn back?" ”

With that, I drew a straight line between the two locations.

"Between the two points, the straight line is the closest, this kind of problem that the private school will not teach you today." I happily said, "But what if the conditions were changed?" The conditions are changed - we set out from the Golden City, we don't have water and containers with us, but we will die of thirst if we don't drink water for a day, so we have to find a water replenishment point every day - assuming these rocky mountains are water replenishment points, then, how do we go to the oasis? ”

"In other words, every time we set off, the goal had to be a rehydration point within a day's foot......" Wan Wudaunt frowned, his eyes on the map, and seemed to be interested in the question.

"You're not really counting, are you?" I waved my bamboo pole, "The point is that under such restrictions, we will not be able to go in a straight line, and the final route will most likely spare a large circle and various turns." ”

As I spoke, I used a chalk pen to connect the rocky mountains on the map.

For each connection, choose the nearest rocky mountain.

The reason for this connection is that I have long figured out the law of excavation of underground tunnels - the principle of proximity.

Under the limitations of the mechanism's technology, it is really convenient to dig multiple short tunnels instead of digging an ultra-long tunnel.

Since this is the case, then the self-propelled demon palace guided by the underground tunnel will naturally follow the same rules.

Of course, there are multiple tunnels dug under each rocky mountain.

But based on the number of rocky mountains we passed, the previous direction of the Demon Palace, and the overall topography of the Great Desert, it should be like this......

Wow, whoa.

Soon, a complete self-propelled demon palace action route was connected.

As soon as the road map was drawn, Wang Ziyun's eyes immediately lit up: "So that's the case." ”

"How's that?" Don't be afraid to understand.

"Look here, here!" I tapped a certain point on the map with a bamboo pole.

"It's ...... Turn? Wan Wu said in confusion.

"That's right, and it's a big bend." I said, "At this point, the Demon Palace has to walk almost once around the entire rocky mountain before it can adjust its position to the next rocky mountain. ”

"So what?" Wan Wuwu still didn't understand.

"The bridge, the bridge I just talked about!" I emphasized.

"What do you mean...... Using the rocky mountain as a bridge and walking on the rocky hill is faster than walking on the outer wall of the Demon Palace? "But that's it, it won't be too fast." ”

"It's faster than you think." I laughed.

"How is that possible?" Wan Wuxing was unconvinced, "The rocky mountain we usually see is two or three hundred zhang long, even if it is flat and flying, it will take a lot of time, not to mention chasing the Demon Palace?" ”

"Of course, the length is two or three hundred zhang, but what about the width?" I asked slowly.

"Width?" Fearless was stunned.

"Let the king explain." Wang Ziyun stood up, "Speaking of rocky mountains, it always feels very large, but in fact it is just an illusion - due to the long-term erosion of northwest-trending wind and sand, all rocky mountains have become extremely thin and long, and the width is usually no more than thirty zhang; If you look down from the sky, you can see that the shape of the rocky mountain does not resemble a mountain, but rather a long, thin and narrow bridge. ”

Speaking of this, Wang Ziyun stopped.

He didn't have to say it anymore.

Because......

"I see!" Wan Wu stomped his feet, "So when the Demon Palace walked around the rocky mountain, all we saw were rocks, and it seemed to be blocked by the thick mountainβ€”in fact, we were only thirty zhang away from the temple hall at that time!" ”

"Yes, the truth is as simple as that." I spread my hands and said, "As long as the light work is not too bad, it is estimated that the time is more than enough to run a few times back and forth." ”

"This ......" Wan Wuxing was about to speak, but suddenly remembered something, took a few steps back, and fell to the ground.

"How about it, I explain this, I don't know if you are satisfied with Wan Daguan?" I looked at Wan Yushen with a smile.

"Satisfied, of course satisfied." Wan Yushen didn't show any surprise, "It's just that although I, Wan someone, have no fame, but I have also been given a jade medal by the emperor, and I don't kneel when I see the official, and I don't add to the punishment-you want to put such a big charge on me just by saying a few words?" Hehe, I'm afraid it's not that easy. ”

As he spoke, he showed a white jade plaque that was as clear as snow.

"It's the real thing." Wang Ziyun frowned.

"What's the use?" I asked.

"It's not of much use, you just can't torture to extract confessions." Wang Ziyun said, "There must be real evidence to ask for guilt." ”

"That's right! Right! Wan Wudang suddenly jumped up like a chicken blood, "Who wouldn't talk nonsense with their eyes closed?" You have the ability to come up with evidence! ”

"Evidence? It's in his belly. I frowned, "In his stomach, he must still be swallowing the corpse of Meng Yulong who has been disguised." ”

"But you can't torture you to extract confessions." Wang Ziyun reminded, "Unless he is willing to spit it out, we can't do anything." ”

"You're the regent, so you can't make an exception?" I said.

"What he has in his hand is a jade plate given by the emperor, which cannot be broken." Wang Ziyun shook his head.

"That's a bit difficult............ I crossed my arms and paced back and forth, muttering words in my mouth.

"Is there any evidence?" Wan Yushen stretched his waist and said, "There is no evidence, I have to go back to the room to rest." ”

"Wait!" I stretched out my hand to stop, "I have something to say." ”

"Let's talk, let's break up." Wan Yushen smiled and didn't seem to be worried.

"I've said so much before, and it's all about the modus operandi." I cleared my throat and said, "But have you ever thought about why Wan Daguan wanted to kill Meng Weisi, Chief Fei?" ”

yes, why?

This question was in everyone's eyes.
