Chapter 371 Chopping Hands and Bookshelves Maze

Is this hairy?

Looking at the staircase door that suddenly closed, I was speechless for a long time.

It's not that simple!

I was back next to the three monkey statues.

The staircase door opened again, as if to mock my ignorance.

It's really weird, what the hell should be done?

I looked at the three statues again.

Three wooden monkeys, one covering their eyes, one covering their mouth, and one covering their ears.

What do they have in common?

Yes!

That's ...... You have to cover it with your hands.

But what does this mean?

I took a closer look.

Belch!

If you don't look at some things closely, you really can't see the clue - it turns out that the hands of these monkeys have gaps, and through the gaps, you can vaguely see the part of the carving that is covered by the hands.

I was shocked.

It turns out that this is not the three non-monkeys (do not see, do not smell, do not speak), but the three stealing monkeys.

Indecent peek!

Indecent eavesdropping!

Indecent and secret!

Wow, but how can I clean you up, master......

I deliberately stepped on the floor of the trap and caught the three flying knives that shot at me with a thunderbolt.

Then I stabbed the knife hard in the hands of the three monkey statues.

The beautiful name is called: chopping hands.

After chopping my hands, I yawned and prepared to wait for the new monkey statue to appear and study the hidden secrets......

Well?

These three statues of chopping monkeys were not taken away.

Could it be ...... This mechanism has prepared a set of spare statues, and there are no new ones to replace?

Or is it ......

I walked to the staircase door.

Three steps away.

Two steps away.

One step away......

The staircase door did not close.

Got me right?

I circled the back of my head and made my way up the stairs to the seventh floor.

Eagle Claw Scripture Pavilion, seventh floor.

On this last floor, the bookshelves are densely packed to form a small labyrinth of bookshelves.

And in the deepest part of the labyrinth, there is an iron treasure chest.

My heart fluttered - still guess? What you want to give me, it must be in the treasure chest.

I walked through the labyrinth of bookshelves towards the iron treasure chest.

Of course, it is said that it is a labyrinth, after all, it is just a few bookshelves, and it is impossible to set up a large array of eight golden locks.

I turned left and right, and I was immediately in front of the treasure chest.

Although the treasure chest was covered, it was not tightly covered, and there was a slight gap.

I reached out and lifted the lid.

"Lai Yiping again!" I recited the Vajra Mantra (false) and struggled to lift it up.

Belch?

The lid of the box did not move.

"Lai Yi Xiang again!" I'll lift it again.

The lid still doesn't move.

I was depressed.

It's obviously not tightly covered, why can't it be opened?

But as the old saying goes, when you have no way forward, take a few steps back.

I stepped back.

This......

I was amazed to find that as I regressed, the gap in the lid was gradually closing!

As I walked forward, the lid gradually lifted.

Step back and slowly close the lid.

So that's it!

I came to my senses in an instant.

No wonder before the treasure chest, a small labyrinth with bookshelves that has no obstruction effect is arranged.

This labyrinth is not meant to be a barrier.

The reason for its existence is to make us take a detour.

The farther you go around the labyrinth, the higher the lid of the chest lifts.

If I could go around all the bends in this little labyrinth, I guess the chest lid would be completely open.

Of course, it's not just random, at least there's one rule - there's no turning back.

Because every time you take a step back (take a step back), the chest lid closes a little bit, so that the lid never opens.

Figured out the crux of the puzzle, I couldn't help but yawn.

Then, he took out the jump gold coin.

The treasure chest is close at hand, who has the heart to solve any mystery?

"Are you sure you want to use this Gold Jump Coin?" An old voice sounded leisurely overhead.

"Sure." I said calmly.

"Good." The old voice said.

I felt a flower in front of me, and an old man with a white beard stood in front of me.

"Is that you?" I was a little surprised.

This is also an old acquaintance.

That's right, it's him - the white-bearded old man judge of the food conference.

"Why, it can't be me?" The white-bearded old man glared.

"It's just that I didn't expect that you turned out to be from the Eagle Claw Gate." I laughed.

"Although my usual identity is the chairman of the Qizhou City Eat, Drink and Fun Committee...... "The white-bearded old man touched his beard and said, "But my real identity is the Supreme Elder of the Eagle Claw Gate, Zheng Ying's senior uncle and ancestor!" ”

It's a high seniority.

It's a pity that the martial arts cultivation doesn't seem to be very high.

"Children, don't use force to win people." The white-bearded old man said, "In this world, not everything has to be won by martial arts-old man, what I am good at is the number of tricks. ”

Hearing his words, I immediately remembered the last Tibetan Taoist master Li Shangen, and couldn't help but nod vigorously.

"The children can be taught." The white-bearded old man smiled, "Let me tell you the truth, the six organs of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion actually have their own meanings: the first mechanism reminds you to know how to be flexible; The second mechanism reminds you to pay attention to the details of being a person (don't miss too many mung beans); The third organ reminds you that the rivers and lakes are dangerous, don't eat indiscriminately; The fourth mechanism reminds you to be good at discovering the essence of the problem and not to be confused by appearances; The fifth organ reminds you to let go of your hands, see more, listen more, and ask more questions (is that what it means); As for this sixth organ, it naturally reminds you of a truth - it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read 10,000 books, and you have to go out and walk more. ”

"This is the Dao Heart Puzzle you always came up with?" I said tentatively.

"Dao Heart Puzzle?" The white-bearded old man laughed and said, "That's right, it was set up by the old man himself, specially used to warn you juniors......"

You can figure it out!

I kept slandering in my heart, but my face was full of reverence: "Then ...... in this treasure chest"

"Inside the treasure chest, it is naturally the most important treasure of the Eagle Claw Gate." The white-bearded old man said leisurely.

When he said that, I immediately chuckled in my heart.

I've heard a lot of storytelling, and similar scenes are familiar - the so-called 'baby' is usually not a treasure in the real sense, often either a rotten stone, a few broken books, or even a few dead branches......

In short, it is something that is more symbolic than practical.

So, what is hidden in the treasure chest is also like this?

Just as I was full of disappointment, the old man with the white beard had gently lifted the lid of the box.

Inside the treasure chest, there is also a chest.

This chest is only slightly smaller than the chest, and its purpose is to prevent someone from stealing the treasure through the cracks before the chest lid is fully opened.

The old man with the white beard opened the box.

There's also a small box inside!

I wiped a cold sweat.

Inside the small box, there should be a smaller box, right?

Thankfully not.

When the white-bearded old man opened the small box, he saw a ...... lying quietly inside. Bag?
