Chapter 208, Escape from Sorrow
There are a total of twenty-six doors around the square.
Li Mu muttered to himself, "What does this mean, let's choose a door?" If you choose the right one, you can go out, but if you choose the wrong one, you will go to death? ”
"That's what it means!" Hongsao said, "The probability of choosing the right one is only one in twenty-six, and this probability is not much stronger than the result of certain death!" ”
Lin Kun's injuries were relatively light, and he went to inspect those doors alone, and after seeing a few of them, he suddenly said, "Come here, there are cats on the doorknobs of these doors!" ”
Sister-in-law Hong said to Lin Wan: "You stay here with Xiaoyu, uncle, let's go over and have a look!" ”
The two hurriedly came to Lin Kun's side, and Sister-in-law Hong asked, "Xiao Kun, what did you find?" ”
Lin Kun pointed to the doorknob and said, "Sister Hong, there are patterns engraved on the doorknobs of these doors, there are two patterns in total, you can see it by looking at it." ”
Hongsao looked down and looked, sure enough, these doors looked exactly the same from a distance, in fact, there was a difference, and there was a pattern engraved on the doorknob of each door, if you didn't look closer, you couldn't see the clue at all.
The three of them circled around the square and looked at all those patterns, Lin Kun was not wrong, there were two patterns in total, some doorknobs were engraved with five stars, and others were engraved with triangles.
Sister-in-law Hong sneered: "I understand, this is a hexagram, and you can deduce the escape route through it." ”
Li Mu asked puzzledly: "Hexagram, is it Yin and Yang gossip, it should be eight doors, there are birth gates, there are death gates, how can there be twenty-six doors here?" ”
"Wuji gives birth to Taiji, Taiji gives birth to two instruments, two instruments give birth to four elephants, four elephants give birth to gossip, gossip determines good fortune and evil, good luck and evil give birth to great causes, gossip can play all things, gossip is superimposed on top of each other to give birth to sixty-four hexagrams, these twenty-six doors are each yin and yang, but there are two more doors, I don't know what mystery is hidden?"
Li Mu didn't understand these words, and Hongsao's sister-in-law didn't explain much, after memorizing the order of the patterns, she went back to discuss the hexagram with Lin Wan, and Lin Kun also went over to the staff, leaving only Brother Li to continue to wander around the square.
Li Mu circled around those doors over and over again, carefully observing their differences, and after turning for a long time, he found nothing new.
The hourglass was rustling, and the red lady still didn't discuss the result, the atmosphere in the square gradually became tense, and the expressions of several people gradually became solemn.
"I should have chosen a door to enter!" Li Mu thought silently, "It's just that there is not much difference between these doors, which door should you choose?" ”
I hesitated in my heart, and continued to circle around those doors, and the more I turned, the more I didn't know how to choose.
Slowly, his eyebrows began to furrow, his lips pursed tightly, and his emotions became more and more agitated.
I just feel that every door is optional, and every door cannot be selected, and I want to push open this door, and I feel that something is wrong, and I want to push open another door, and suddenly I think that it is better than the original one.
In this way, people became more and more worried, and they tossed for a long time, but they never made any choice except to circle around the square.
The argument over there gradually became louder, Lin Wan and the others couldn't convince each other, everyone's mood became more and more depressed, and they became more and more worried about the prospect of a smooth escape.
Li Mu was worried, sweat had already appeared on his head, and in a hurry, he suddenly had a hint of enlightenment, and hurriedly went to see the face of his companion, and touched his own face, and found that everyone's current expressions were extremely similar to the stone statue with a sad face.
I suddenly understood something in my heart, and I couldn't help but scolded loudly: "Cao, I know, it's worry, this guan's state of mind is worry, grandma's, do you want to use selective barriers to trap Lao Tzu alive?" ”
His voice startled the three people over there, and Lin Wan asked worriedly, "Husband, what's wrong with you?" ”
Li Mu waved his hand, signaling them not to speak, and to think according to their own thoughts.
At some point, it's easy to get anxious, and when it's time to make a decision, you become hesitant to look ahead and hesitate.
I seem to have such a problem, maybe I have been sick for a long time, and my worries have become my own heart disease, or rather, I have become my own heart demon.
He has such a problem, Lin Wan doesn't have such a problem, including Hongsao and Lin Kun, it is estimated that they all have such problems, whether light or serious.
It seems that this square wants to take advantage of the weakness of human nature to defeat the interloper, that is, to use seven different states of mind to make the interloper gradually lose themselves and thus succeed.
Thinking of this, Li Mu snorted contemptuously, turned his head to Lin Wan and said, "Wife, do you believe me?" ”
"Faith!" Lin Wan replied without hesitation.
"What about you, believe me or not?" Li Mu continued to ask.
Sister-in-law Hong and Lin Kun also nodded together, Li Mu smiled, walked over, picked He Xiaoyu on his back, and said to the others: "Don't ask more, follow me!" ”
After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, and the three of them followed closely behind him without saying a word.
Li Mu chose a door at random, and after pulling it open, he pulled the door panel directly off with a click with his arm, carrying the door panel with one hand and his junior sister with the other, and walked out without hesitation, and the others also followed in.
There was a white light in front of him, when the glare dissipated, the person returned to the corridor, the stone door behind him slowly closed, and the young lady pounced on him with tears on his face, hugging the eldest brother and crying!
Sister-in-law Hong suddenly realized, clapped her hands and said: "I understand, those patterns are deliberately left by the Shen family, in fact, you can come out by choosing a random door, to put it bluntly, the victims of this level are all trapped to death by themselves!" ”
Lin Wan comforted the little sister for a few words, and whispered to Li Mu: "Why did you want to tear down that door, does it have any special meaning?" ”
Seeing that several people were looking at him, Li Mu smiled bitterly: "You guys always like to think about complicated problems, what is the special meaning, I dismantled the door to make a splint and fix the injuries of Xiaoyu and Lin Kun, it's as simple as that!" ”
Sister-in-law Hong smiled, took the door panel from Li Mu's hand, and said to everyone: "This mechanism has been completely destroyed by my uncle, as long as you are not a fool, you should know how to leave!" ”
"That's, such a big hole, if you still can't understand it, you deserve to be trapped to death!" Li Mu said proudly.
Then he remembered something, and commanded the people: "Let us get out of here quickly, get away from this square quickly, and get as far away from that duck egg as possible!" ”
Before the matter was clarified, everyone didn't dare to easily drill into the thief hole, so they could only choose to escape from the square far away, and after pulling away for a distance, they stopped and made three sets of splints to fix the broken bones for He Xiaoyu and Lin Kun.
He Xiaoyu was still sleeping, Lin Wan fed her some water, and said with a sad face: "Xiaoyu and Lin Kun are both injured, what should we do next?" ”
Shen Zixing choked up and said, "They all blame us, it was us who hurt Sister Xiaoyu!" ”
Li Mu rubbed her head and comforted her: "Nonsense, it has nothing to do with you, no matter who blows up the stone statue, the result is the same, we have to break through this level, and it won't work if you want to take a shortcut." ”
"Actually, there's a big difference!" Sister-in-law Hong said on the side.
"Oh, what does Sister Hong have to say?" Li Mu asked.
"Choosing to let the Purple Star blow up the stone statue should be the most correct decision, if it were someone else, he might have to face those challenges alone, and it would definitely be even more dangerous!"
Seeing that everyone seemed to understand, Hongsao explained: "Zixing, they are the Shen family, after they destroyed the stone statue, the cause and effect fell on outsiders, so we were ingested, if we touch the stone statue alone, the cause and effect can only fall on the individual, and we are destined to face the predicament alone, and it is bound to be difficult to pass." ”
Only then did everyone understand, and Lin Kun asked, "Sister Hong, do we need to go through all the states of mind once in order to leave here smoothly?" ”
"Yes, this is the second benefit of Zixing and their hands, after they touch the mechanism, we can go through seven states of mind together, otherwise, everyone will have to go through seven states of mind, I'm afraid it will be difficult to ensure that all of them pass the level."
Lin Wan didn't say anything, and said to Sister-in-law Hong at this moment: "Sister-in-law Hong, we have found the thief hole, just leave from there, there is no need to continue to break through!" ”
Sister-in-law Hong shook her head.
"It definitely won't work, except for Zixing and the others, the rest of the people can only leave here safely after they succeed in breaking through, and if they leave forcibly, I'm afraid they will encounter accidents."
Li Mu frowned and said, "Xiaoyu and Lin Kun are both injured, especially Xiaoyu, how can they continue to break through with such a serious injury?" ”
Lin Wan comforted him and said, "Husband, don't worry, let's find a way slowly!" ”
Li Mu glanced at He Xiaoyu with a complicated expression.
"Wake her up first, don't let her sleep again, after sleeping for a long time, I'm worried that she won't wake up."
Lin Wan woke He Xiaoyu up, helped her sit up, and let her lean into her arms.
Li Mu sighed and said to Lin Wan: "Don't be reckless, your body is heavy, your movement is inconvenient, that force is very strong, I'm worried..."
"I know, but there's no way, everyone has to get through it, unless he's dead!"
Dead, Li Mu's eyes lit up, and he muttered these two words repeatedly in his mouth.
Sister-in-law Hong asked on the side, "Uncle, have you thought of any way?" ”
"Sister Hong, in this environment, how long will it take for a person to be in a coma before it is dangerous?"
"It's hard to say, it's related to the person's mental power, the stronger the mental power, the easier it is to wake up, for example, Xiaoyu, others may not wake up again when they sleep, and she may sleep in the past."
"In other words, I don't have to stab her, Xiaoyu can wake up by herself!"
"Well, that's right!"
He Xiaoyu shook his fingers and said aggrievedly: "Brother-in-law, it still hurts!" ”
Everyone laughed, and the tense and oppressive atmosphere eased a lot.
"Uncle, you haven't answered my question yet, have you thought of any way?"
"Fake your death!"
"Fake death?"
"That's right, it's fake death, and then let the Purple Star take us out!"
"This is a way, that thief cave can lead to the outside world, we pretend to be dead corpses, let Zixing and them take us out, I think it is feasible, Xiaowan, what do you say?"
Lin Wan thought about it for a while, nodded and said, "I also think it's feasible, so let's do it!" ”
"Xiao Kun takes the lead!" Hongsao suggested, "We need to make sure that the exit over there is not dangerous, and let Xiao Kun explore the road first!" ”
