Chapter 374: Building Block Passage
While Wei Chiran climbed in, He Changqing explained the Huizhou Tower to Zhou Xianwei on it. This Huizhou tower is generally five or seven floors, the tower is divided into solid and hollow two, the hollow tower is an empty to the top, that is to say, the whole inside is empty, and the solid is that each floor has an attic, but the current evil tower is different, it is full of organs, and it is a pure wooden structure, which can be completely turned into a filled solid, and can also be expanded to restore the original attic.
In the past, there were three functions of Huizhou Tower, one was the pagoda, the purpose was to place Buddha statues and Buddhist materials, this kind of pagoda was generally built in the temple; the second is to suppress demons and suppress evil, also known as feng shui tower, which is used to make up for the shortcomings of mountains and rivers; The third is to revitalize the Wenfeng Tower of Wenyun, with the purpose of prospering and gathering talents.
The Huizhou Tower built by the imitation of the Iron Clothes Gate is only to suppress demons and suppress evil spirits, and legend has it that all the monsters and ghosts they caught are stuffed with organs.
Zhou Xianwei looked down and asked, "Old man, how tall is this tower?" No, how deep? ”
He Changqing said: "According to common sense, there should be seven floors, as for the height, I can't say for sure, after all, there must be a difference between the Tieyi Gate and the original Huizhou Tower." ”
Zhou Xianwei asked again: "What's in there?" Are there really demons and monsters? ”
He Changqing smiled: "Let me ask you, do you think there are really ghosts in this world?" ”
Zhou Xianwei shook his head and said, "I didn't think there was any, but after seeing the porcelain box, I was a little shaken." ”
He Changqing said: "Why shake it? Just because you can't explain that phenomenon, right? Nowadays, the Internet is developed, there are cameras everywhere, and people's mobile phones can also be high-definition cameras, but you find that no, all the videos taken about ghosts are very blurry, and it feels like they were taken with a telephone landline. ”
Zhou Xianwei asked, "You mean, those are all artificial?" ”
"I've seen a lot of videos of ghosts like this before, full of loopholes, obviously fake, but ......" He Changqing said this pause, took a sip of freshly brewed tea, and showed a satisfied expression, "However, I have also seen relatively clear videos, but I think those are not so-called ghosts, but another kind of thing, this kind of thing is because it cannot be explained in the past and now, so people put it on ghosts." ”
Zhou Xianwei shook his head slowly: "I still don't understand." ”
He Changqing looked at Zhou Xianwei: "You can become someone else's appearance, right?" ”
Zhou Xianwei nodded.
He Changqing asked again: "Then do you think you have a spell?" Seventy-two changes? Same as Monkey King. ”
Zhou Xianwei hurriedly shook his head: "Of course not." ”
He Changqing said with a smile: "That's right, in ancient times, if someone had this ability like you, everyone would naturally think that it was a spell of seventy-two changes, so explain, do you understand?" ”
Zhou Xianwei said: "I understand a little bit, so in this case, why is there a different way?" ”
He Changqing said: "How can I explain it to you, the various sects and sects of different sects are like scientific groups with different research directions in ancient times, but they have continued from that era to the present, and everyone thinks that they are the proof of the existence of the so-called gods and ghosts, but in fact, it is the opposite." ”
At the same time, Wei Chi, who had already drilled into the tower, found that there were two passages on the left and right of the bottom, but they could only be drilled into it on their stomachs, which made people very uncomfortable, the small space, coupled with the pitch black environment, if there were claustrophobic people, they would have completely collapsed.
Although Wei Chiran felt very uncomfortable and had some difficulty breathing, after all, he had this kind of experience, and after adjusting his breathing and mentality, he chose the passage on the left side, and climbed forward with a headlamp.
In the process of crawling, Wei Chi observed the left and right, and found that the passage was really as He Changqing said, they were all patched together, and there were gaps in them.
"I crawled into the depths, and then what?" The lieutenant stopped and pressed the walkie-talkie and asked.
He Changqing outside replied: "You have to keep going forward and come to the end." ”
Wei Chiran said angrily: "I'm crawling now." ”
He Changqing said: "Then climb to the end." ”
After crawling forward for a while, he found that the place where the flashlight shone was shining with gold, and he climbed up and saw that the left and right sides of the front were inlaid with gold nuggets, and when he reached out and touched it, it seemed to be loose.
Wei Chiran told He Changqing about this discovery: "There are gold nuggets on both sides of the passage in front of me, and my eyes are shining. ”
He Changqing immediately said: "If you don't want to die, don't touch those gold nuggets." ”
Wei Chiran asked, "Is this a trap?" ”
He Changqing looked at Zhou Xianwei on the opposite side and said: "That's right, it's a trap, if you pick off these gold nuggets and take them away, even if it's just one piece, the passage will begin to tighten, squeezing you into a pulp, and then you will become a ghost in the evil suppression tower." ”
Wei Chiran heard the words and continued to crawl forward, but what he didn't expect was that there were gold nuggets on both sides of the passage in front of him, and he also smelled a fragrance, which made him extremely excited, and all the previous fears were forgotten, as he climbed faster and faster, his thinking became more and more active, and the gold in front of him became more and more dazzling.
For a long time, He Changqing didn't hear Wei Chiran's voice, picked up the walkie-talkie and asked, "What did you see again?" ”
The lieutenant replied slowly: "I feel full of strength now, I should almost reach the end, it's time to come." ”
The lieutenant climbed to the end and found a gold ingot on the wall in the center of the end, and the gold ingot was embedded there, far more attractive than the surrounding gold nuggets.
He Changqing said: "You directly reach out and take off the gold ingot, and return the same way." ”
Wei Chiran took off the gold ingot as He Changqing said, but then it was troublesome, because there was not enough space for him to turn his body, he could only climb backwards, and at the same time, the previous excitement gradually disappeared, he climbed very difficult, and his heart was extremely irritable.
Suddenly, Wei Chi felt that his feet had touched something, and he stretched out his feet to probe, only to find that the rear was sealed.
What's going on? When I came here just now, it was still a passage, how could it be blocked now?
Wei Chiran told He Changqing about the situation, but He Changqing asked him to climb back to the previous end and return the gold ingot.
Wei Chi, who was extremely irritable in his heart, asked, "What do you mean?" ”
"It's also a trap." He Changqing's tone was very calm, "Take it down, and then return it, this kind of mechanism is to cause chaos, you have to remember, this kind of place, there must be a way to live, different from the ancient tombs, the ancient tombs of princes and generals, once closed, can no longer be opened, the so-called organs are also dead ends, unless they are destroyed, don't try to find a way to open them again, do you understand what I mean?" Don't panic. ”
Wei Chiran took a deep breath, climbed back to the previous position, loaded the gold ingot back, and climbed back backwards, this time the way back was not blocked, and he heard the sound of the mechanism turning, but when he smelled the fragrance before passing by the way, Wei Chiran was as excited as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, thinking that since he was leaving, it would be better to deduct a gold nugget as a souvenir.
At the moment when Wei Chi went to pick the gold nuggets, He Changqing's voice came from the earphones again: "Where did you climb to?" ”
Wei Chiran said: "I plan to pick out a piece of gold and bring it back, even if it is a souvenir." ”
"Captain Chiran, are you crazy!?" He Changqing suddenly yelled at the walkie-talkie, "Once you pick off that gold nugget and touch the mechanism, you will die!" You're going to be crushed into a pate! You think I'm kidding you! It's all a trap! Don't move! ”
Wei Chiran was frightened by He Changqing's voice and immediately stopped, but the excitement in his heart still did not stop, and the intensification of the excitement made him feel that he was no longer terrible, but argued with He Changqing there, and it was all crooked, intending to persuade He Changqing to agree to take down the gold nugget himself.
Zhou Xianwei listened to Wei Chiran's quibbles, and felt very strange, although they had only known each other for a few days, he also felt that it should not be something that Wei Chiran could say, he immediately looked at He Changqing and asked, "What's wrong with him?" ”
He Changqing thought for a while, took the walkie-talkie and said: "Wei Chiran, I agree with you to take the gold nuggets, but there will probably be a mechanism behind the gold nuggets, you put on a gas mask for me first, rest for a while, and then take it off." ”
When the lieutenant heard this, he immediately put on the gas mask that he had taken off because he was afraid of affecting his vision, and then lay there to rest, but after resting for less than a minute, the fatigue came up again, and he felt that it was a little difficult to breathe.
Wei Chiran pressed the walkie-talkie and said, "I feel so tired now." ”
"It's right to be tired, it's sure to be uncomfortable, silly boy, did you know that you were poisoned just now?" He Changqing breathed a sigh of relief and began to explain to Wei Chiran, "You seemed too excited before, and your speech was slurred, and what you said was all crooked, it must be some kind of poison that can make people excited, although it will not directly kill you, but it will damage your nervous system and make you make wrong judgments." ”
Although Wei Chiran was extremely tired now, his consciousness was much more awake than before, and the previous lucidity was just an illusion, a chemical effect of a poison. After He Changqing judged this, he knew that it was not feasible to stop him directly, so he could only find a way to let him wear a gas mask first to avoid the poison in it.
At this moment, the lieutenant came back to his senses, his whole body was soaked with sweat, he swallowed his saliva, his breathing became rapid, and after a while, he gritted his teeth and crawled backwards, and in the process of crawling, he finally heard the sound of the mechanism turning around him, and it became louder and louder, giving him the illusion that it seemed to squeeze him flat.
As the sound got louder and louder, the speed at which Wei climbed backwards became slower and slower, not only because he was tired, but also because he was too flustered, and in this narrow environment, people would also become more and more panicked with the noise of the machine sound.
Finally, when Wei Chiran crawled back to his original position and was about to escape through the exit, the passage below slowly dispersed, and at the same time, Wei Chiran also fell directly and fell heavily to the ground.
It took a long time for Wei Chi Ran to get up, and he used his headlamp to shine in all directions, and found that the surrounding objects began to return to their original positions, forming tables, chairs, floors, and tribute platforms where objects were placed.
The previous narrow passages were all made up of deformed objects in the tower, which were made up of different shapes of wood. Before the mechanism is opened, these objects will fall apart, and the wooden blocks will be reintegrated into a narrow passage, gathered in the center of the tower, and when the mechanism is opened, it will gradually disperse and return to the original form of furniture.
