Chapter 167: One Hundred and Seventy-Five Steps

When I saw the hole that reappeared in my field of vision, my hair exploded.

This is the third time I've seen him, which means that we've gone around three times in the same place, and then we're going on the fourth turn, and I can't help but worry a little if I can't find the subtlety of this mechanism. I'm afraid we'll have to keep going.

until they are exhausted, hungry, and have a dry mouth, and finally wait for death on the spot.

"Eh, how do I feel that we have been going around in circles" The yellow mouse suddenly spoke, this nerd finally reacted, Daniel Zhang's face was gloomy, he also found the clue, this tomb road is definitely not so long,

"Xiao Lin, is this a ghost hitting the wall?" he asked.

I waved my hand and stared at the hollow in the wall in silence, it was so weird. How did we come here without knowing it?Could it be that when it was all dark just now, we went off the course because we didn't have a line of sight

The three of us are supporting each other and retreating, if we deviate from the direction, it is impossible for the three of us to not know or even feel it at all, but if it wasn't at that time, then when would it be

I felt like I had a splitting headache, I couldn't figure it out, it was basically against the laws of nature. Although we couldn't see far, it was clear, and we could be sure that we were moving forward without turning a corner.

"It's possible for ghosts to hit the wall, but it's not like that. We're walking in a straight line, but we're going around in circles."

There have been records of ghosts hitting the wall in the secret art of Luotu, which are roughly divided into several types, one is in the grave circle, which is also the easiest place to encounter ghosts hitting the wall, because there are stone tablets all around, and the markers are almost the same, thinking that they are walking in a straight line, but in fact, they are turning in circles.

There is also a staircase that cannot be walked up and down, this thing my father once told me, it happened in a Western Zhou tomb, it is a very subtle anti-theft technology of the ancients, it can also be said to be a mechanism.

The similarity with the grave circles is that they all have a sign, as if they are specially designed to tell you to go around in circles.

Then there is the gossip array that Mr. Zhuge once had. The subtlety of others is not something that my junior can study thoroughly.

But no matter how many of the above methods are, they are different from what we are encountering now, and we are going around in circles in a straight line when we can be sure of walking in a straight line, which is very weird.

"We're walking ahead and counting how many steps."

The three of them glanced at each other, and they all saw the uneasiness in each other's eyes, but fortunately, we were three people together, and we were bold, took a deep breath, and strode forward.

"One hundred seventy-three, one hundred seventy-four, one hundred seventy-five"

When the three of us said the number one hundred and seventy-five in unison, the scalp-numbing thing reappeared, and the swarthy hole that used to be plugged in the mermaid lamp reappeared in our field of vision

One hundred and seventy-five steps, what does this mean, and there has never been such a number in any poetry. Seeing this, the yellow squirrel couldn't help but scold.

"Oh grandma's, it's back"

I ignored his words, and still thought about the word one hundred and seventy-five. And Daniel Zhang looked at me in a daze, and then patted it, "Xiao Lin, what do you think"

I shook my head, "No, what does this one hundred and seventy-five mean In the current situation, as long as we take one hundred and seventy-five steps, we will be back to the same place, but"

It occurred to me that if I closed my eyes and didn't look at things, and the three of us walked backwards again when we lost our vision, would it have a different effect?

If it's a hundred and seventy-five steps back, then there's really a problem. Because of the forward and backward of a person, the size of the legs is not the same.

It is one hundred and seventy-five to go forward, and two hundred to go back

I'm glad to think of this

Overjoyed, it would be great if such an approach could reveal any clues.

"Brother Zhang, weasel, let's close our eyes and walk backwards to see how many steps there are"

The weasel was a little tired, and he collapsed on the ground and waved his hand, "Don't don't, you two go, I'll stay here to guard, I really can't do it." ”

This guy just fell into a fantasy world, and after such a toss, he finally became numb.

But I don't feel at ease with leaving him alone, we don't have the tools, not even the rope, and it's not enough to tear all the clothes into strips of cloth.

Just crouch down and say to him. "Brother, you are insisting on it, can you rest assured that Brother Zhang and I are here?"

The weasel grinned, "Hey, hey, what's the matter, you're afraid that a female ghost will come out of nowhere and eat me"

Daniel Zhang also made a rare joke, "No, we are afraid that you will kill this female ghost, so that Xiao Lin and I will not have the opportunity to experience human ghost love." ”

"Hahahaha."

Several people laughed, this way of relieving pressure is simply not too good, and the yellow squirrel also stood up again, "Forget it, lose the skin and flesh and don't fall behind, our team is invincible, don't you just retreat?"

With that, the guy took one arm in one hand, caught himself in the middle, and then we began to walk backwards with our eyes closed. I don't know how long we walked, but when we counted to one hundred and seventy-five steps, we opened our eyes again\

I saw that the hole in the wall did not reappear on the wall without any accident

This time we were completely confused. It's one hundred and seventy-five steps forward and backward, how can it be that when I went back, I deliberately reduced my pace, and even so, it was still one hundred and seventy-five steps back

"What's wrong, it's one hundred and seventy-five," the weasel opened his mouth in surprise, looking at the hollows in the wall, his eyes were about to fall.

Daniel Zhang also looked puzzled, this phenomenon is no longer in line with the rules of nature, I broke open the sleeves of the yellow squirrel and beckoned the three to sit down, this matter has to be discussed carefully, it is not okay to go like this.

When the two of them saw me sitting on the ground, they did the same, especially the weasel, and he wished he could rest a little longer.

"Let's take a look at the various possibilities, Brother Zhang, what do you think about this?"

Daniel Zhang groaned, "Well, Xiaolin, you see that this is not like what those fortune tellers said, space folding, is this a place where Taoists soar?"

In the current situation, anything is possible. Because we are in a space that should not be there at all, there is nothing wrong with Daniel Zhang's speech. The weasel also said,

"I said Lao Zhang, you have so many professional terms, and the space is folded, don't you just say that the ghost hits the wall?"

I waved my hand, "No, what Brother Zhang said makes sense, the so-called space folding is actually the mirror principle, when we walk to one hundred and seventy-five steps, we will pass through the mirror and return to the original point, that is to say, what we see is an illusion, thinking that we have walked one hundred and seventy-five steps, but in fact it is the same as standing still, right, Brother Zhang."

Daniel Zhang listened to my explanation and nodded slightly, the mirror principle is also talked about in the secret technique of Lotu, that is, within a certain spatial range, suppose there is a huge and transparent mirror, and at this time it is impossible to tell whether we are in reality or in the mirror.

If it's in the mirror, how do we get out?

The most terrifying thing is that this mirror is traversable and transparent, we can't see or touch it.

It's just an analogy, but it's apt, Daniel Zhang continued.

"There is another possibility, this is an ancient anti-theft mechanism, but we haven't found the inflection point of the mechanism, so we can't get out here."

The yellow rat and I both nodded repeatedly, this Daniel Zhang is calm-headed, and his thoughts are not chaotic,

When it comes to talking, it's the first thing. Especially in such a situation, it's really admirable.

As for the mechanism, I think I have mastered enough, but this is obviously not the mechanism, because the important thing about the mechanism is a machine, and if there is no operation of the machine, it is absolutely impossible for such a large organ to fulfill its original role.

In other words, from the beginning to the present, we have seen nothing except the mermaid wall lamp, only endless darkness and endless corridors. If we want to talk about organs, it has to be something we touched.

Sizzle

Could it be that this mermaid lamp in my hand shouldn't be, there are so many lamps here, how can the designer know that I have the ability to take this kind of unpredictable prophet, and it is estimated that Zhang Daoling does not have it.

"Probably not, I think it might be some kind of ancient illusion, or something that tempts our eyes, judging from the fact that it was one hundred and seventy-five steps before and after, which means that every hundred and seventy-five steps there will be a hole in the wall,

This recess is our marker, and if the designer advances that we will take the lamp, we can remove one every 175 steps, so that every 175 steps we will think that we are back to square one.

Coupled with the length of the road and the slight bend, walking through the four signs, you will really return to the original point, because here we can't discern the direction at all, so it's normal to go slightly crooked, right?"

After hearing this, Huang Rat and Daniel Zhang both suddenly realized and looked at me with admiration. "Xiaolin, I didn't see it, you're still an expert in solving crimes."

The yellow squirrel teased, I was also proud of my own cleverness.

However, it is one thing to know the principle, and it is another thing to crack it. I smiled slightly and waved my hand, "Don't be too happy too soon, even if you know to stay away, you won't be able to get out." Because we can't calculate the length at all. ”

Daniel Zhang also suddenly remembered something, "Eh can't calculate the length, but we can calculate the width, the three of us stretch our arms flat and walk by the wall, it should have an effect"

My eyes lit up, this is probably the most effective way to do it at the moment, and if you find any bends or tricks when you touch the wall, then the chances of going out are much greater

Just do it, the three of them stood up, still I walked on the right Daniel Zhang walked on the left, the yellow rat was in the middle, we wrist to wrist, and walked forward together.

But after walking nearly three hundred and seventy-five steps, it was hard to find that no wall was polished, and it was extremely smooth, not to mention the mechanism, not even a pothole

We've been tossing and turning here for nearly an hour, tired and hungry, and I hurriedly beckoned the three of us to sit down again, gasping for air.

"No, it's not right, what a few steps just now" We didn't even have water, and our mouths were dry and exhausted. Daniel Zhang listened to me and said.

"Whew, whew, one hundred, one hundred and seventy-one."

I nodded and continued, "No, this is definitely not a mechanism, and it won't be what we just imagined, Brother Zhang, what is the first possibility you said?"

"Space folding."

I cocked up my index finger and exclaimed, "For space for example, we're four steps away from the point, and if it's a mirror effect, what happens when we stop at one hundred and seventy-four steps?"

The yellow squirrel was so tired that he couldn't even speak, and he didn't dare to be interested in the two of us' questions and answers, and Daniel Zhang continued, "If it is really a mirror effect, we stop at the mirror mouth, and it is estimated that we will be torn in half."

My eyes narrowed, and I said mysteriously.

"What happens if we stop and don't tear it off, then we look back"

After hearing this, the yellow squirrel suddenly sat up with great interest,

"Will see two of us"
