Chapter 414: Huangquan Slope
After He Changqing scolded Wei Chiran, Wei Chiran came back to his senses, and he reversed the order. First, someone designed the mechanism of the seven-star life-sustaining lamp, and then the iron-clad gate designed the Huizhou Town Evil Tower in the order of this mechanism, and in turn, the person who went to the Huizhou Town Evil Tower first could unlock the mechanism of the seven-star life-sustaining lamp in the torture cave in the order of the order.
So, if you don't find the people who came here in the right order, you have to stop there.
After thinking about it for a long time, Wei Chi Ran said again: "If this is the case, then in fact, from the square well to the stone gate, and then to the stone house, the suspension bridge, the poison swamp, and the seven-star life-sustaining lamp, the series of mechanisms are actually designed by the iron-clad gate?" Nothing to do with the Bone Hunter? Otherwise, how could the Tieyi Gate link the Torture Cave with the Huizhou Town Evil Tower? ”
He Changqing said: "It seems that it should be like this, but we guessed wrong before, and we didn't expect that the entrance was not below, but above." As the saying goes, the heavens and the earth break the demons. ”
Wei Chiran asked: "What does it mean to go to heaven and earth to break the heart demon?" ”
He Changqing explained: "The heaven and the earth here are just a metaphor, which means that when people are meditating and practicing, although their bodies are in place, their spirits should wander in all directions, so that they can not be controlled by their own demons. ”
When the two climbed to the top and stood with Hou Zhenbang, they found that they were facing a slope, a steep slope, covered with sharp gravel and bulging dirt bags.
The lieutenant shined his flashlight with a flashlight, but he could not see what was under the slope, and he did not understand what it meant.
Hou Zhenbang said: "This should be the legendary Huangquan Road." ”
Wei Chiran wondered: "Is Huangquan Road like this?" ”
He Changqing explained: "The so-called Huangquan Road is not straight up and down, but few people know what the beginning of Huangquan Road looks like, and some scattered records believe that Huangquan Road is a slope, and the slope is full of all the memories of your world, and your merits and deeds are also here, and you can also see your grave after death." ”
Wei Chiran asked, "So, those bulging earthen bags are graves?" ”
He Changqing looked at Wei Chiran: "You first score the difference between the tomb, the eye, the mound and the mausoleum. ”
Wei Chiran listened carefully, and He Changqing told him that the so-called tomb is "a tomb if the soil is built", which literally means that the coffin is buried underground, and a pile of cone-shaped loess is built on the ground. The earliest tombs that were piled up into a cone-shaped shape represent that the buried person died unjustly, and the soil was built to indicate injustice and grievances in the heart. Later, this statement was gradually forgotten and became a specific form of tomb.
The second is that "the cave is the tomb", the coffin is also buried in the ground, but the top is flat, there is no soil bag, the analysis of the comprehensive tomb, that is, the person did not die unjustly, but the leaves return to the roots. There were also monuments, the earliest wooden monuments, but the wood could not be kept for too long, and later it was replaced by stone monuments.
The second is "the tomb for the mound", the mound refers to the tomb that occupies a larger area, because the deceased is noble, and the tall and large tomb is not something that ordinary people can build, usually the prince and the general, and the person with a special identity or special contribution can be called a mound. Some of the people who died on the battlefield and could not find the corpses, so they could only be replaced by clothes, which were called clothes mounds.
Finally, there is the mausoleum, which refers to the tomb of the emperor's family, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, tall and majestic, and its investment is not something that others can afford.
After listening to this, Wei Chiran asked, "What is that torture point?" ”
He Changqing said: "Strictly speaking, the torture cave can only be regarded as a relic in today's words, in that year, it was not counted among the four at all, it could only be regarded as a prison for the dead, that is to say, once buried here, it will be locked up here forever." ”
Hou Zhenbang picked up a stone and threw it down the slope: "Are we going straight down?" ”
He Changqing said: "There is no drone pathfinder, and I can't see what is below, so there is no other way than to go down directly." ”
Wei Chi was about to throw a glow stick, but He Changqing stopped him: "Don't throw it, save it." ”
Although it was a slope, because of the steepness, the three of them had to lay a spike on the top, but the soil could not hold the spike in place at all, and with a little force, the spike would fall off.
After several failed attempts, the three of them knew that the people who designed this place deliberately did not let you fix the rope, so they had to walk carefully on foot.
He Changqing looked down: "Zhenbang, you take Tuxing Sun to the front, and I follow, Wei Chiran and I keep a distance of three meters." ”
All three of them had ropes tied around their waists, and each took out a pickaxe, but the ground on the slope was so soft that even a pickaxe might not be able to hold it in place when it was dangerous, and at best it could only serve as a slowdown and slide.
Although the three of them walked hard, Tu Xingsun was very relaxed because of the relationship between size and weight, and even ran up and down the slope, which made Wei Chiran angry.
Wei Chiran asked as he walked: "Is this Huangquan slope designed by Huangquan?" ”
He Changqing said: "Is there a wife in the wife's cake?" ”
Wei Chiran was speechless, looking at He Changqing's back and crying and laughing.
Hou Zhenbang in front told Tuxing Sun to be careful, and then said: "Huangquan is evil-destroying, so they definitely won't design this kind of road, and it's still unclear what the mechanism in it is." ”
When Wei Chiran walked past the first small mound, he found that there was a stone tablet pressed on top of the mound, and the stone tablet was deeply sunk into the mound. Wei Chiran felt curious and stepped forward to look, and found that the stone plaque had the secret of the iron-clad door written on it, and as for what it meant, he didn't understand.
Wei Chiran originally wanted to ask He Changqing, but He Changqing urged him to move forward, and he gave up the idea of asking questions.
The soil under your feet is extremely soft, and with every step, your feet will sink in, and when you pull it out, the mud and sand will roll down, and the further you go, the less mud there will be, and finally it will turn directly into fine sand.
Hou Zhenbang in front of him stopped: "Something is wrong, why has it all turned into fine sand?" ”
He Changqing also stopped, then squatted down, stretched out his hand to touch the fine sand: "These sands are too fine, obviously sifted, there is not even a little impurity, and if we go down, it is estimated that we will all have to sink in." ”
Wei Chi said: "The smaller the contact area, the greater the pressure, should we put the backpack under our feet?" ”
He Changqing shook his head: "There is only one backpack per person, and the only way is for us to lie down and slide down." ”
Suddenly, the surrounding fine sand began to collapse, sliding down in batches, and He Changqing saw this and said, "Don't move! Don't move! Don't move! ”
Wei Chiran and Hou Zhenbang stopped and did not dare to pull their legs forward, because they found that once they moved slightly, the fine sand around them began to collapse.
However, even if they didn't move, they couldn't stop the sand around them from sliding down, and the sand where they were standing gradually decreased, revealing the stone slab below.
Wei Chi squatted down and touched it with his hand: "Master, it turns out that there are stone slabs underneath here." ”
He Changqing thought of something, quickly turned around, and shone a flashlight above: "Oh no! ”
Wei Chiran also immediately looked back, only to find that once the fine sand below decreased, it could not block the soft soil above, the upper half of the slope was composed of soft soil, and the lower half was all fine sand, which was made up of fine sand to block the soft mud above, and if there was no fine sand, the soft soil would roll down like a landslide.
Looking at the soft soil layer that was gradually crumbling, Hou Zhenbang scolded: "What kind of bastard who lacks virtue designed this kind of mechanism!" ”
He Changqing said: "But it's really smart, hurry up and run down, it's too late." ”
However, even if you run down, there is no way to do it now, because the fine sand is gradually disappearing, and the original position is replaced by the soft soil that has slid down, and the soft soil directly wraps the ankle position, making it difficult to lift your feet.
When the three of them increased their speed a little and walked down, they didn't notice that the three mounds of earth pressed with stone tablets in the back were also slowly crumbling, and human limbs were gradually emerging from the soft soil.
The mound of earth slid down, and the stone plaques were also brought down by the way, and one of them hit the back of Wei Chiran's ankle.
Wei Chi turned around, looked at the stone tablet, picked it up easily, and found that although the stone tablet looked big, the weight was very light, and he could pick it up with one hand, so he handed it to He Changqing: "Master, what is the secret written on this stone tablet?" ”
He Changqing looked sideways at the stone plaque, and immediately pulled out his dagger: "Zhenbang!" The Soul Suppression Seat has fallen! ”
Soul Suppression Position? Is this stone tablet called the Soul Suppression Position? Before Wei Chiran came back to his senses, he saw Hou Zhenbang in the distance in front of him turn around in surprise, and then shouted to himself with round eyes: "Wei Chiran! Get down! ”
Before Wei Chiran could react, he was thrown to the ground directly by someone, and then rolled down, and the man stepped on his body, his hands kept beating.
Wei Chiran was beaten by the man's fists so that he didn't have the strength to fight back at all, and the reason why he kept rolling, he finally rolled to the wall before stopping, raised his hand to block the man's next attack, and at the same time saw the face of the "person" in front of him clearly.
Is this a human!? The clothes on the body of the thing were already in tatters, and there was a strong smell of medicine on its body, its body had dried up, and the skin that clung to the bones had become as hard as copper skin, and every time Wei Chiran was hit hard by him, it felt like a hammer had been smashed.
The lieutenant leaned against the wall, and when he had a support point, he raised his foot and kicked the thing away.
The thing rolled down directly, Wei Chiran hurriedly pulled out his gun, and fired at the remaining two things that were scuffling with Hou Zhenbang and He Changqing, and hit his head with two consecutive shots, but the two things only deviated slightly because of the impact of the bullet, and then continued to wave his hands.
Wei Chiran shouted, "Master, what is this!?" ”
"Bronze Corpse!" He Changqing said, stabbing the chest of the copper-skinned corpse in front of him with a dagger, but the dagger was directly bent, he was stunned, and at the moment of being stunned, he was directly grabbed by the copper-skinned corpse and smashed into the wall.
What is a copper-skinned corpse? Wei Chiran couldn't care so much now, and carefully maintained his balance and walked towards He Changqing's position, during which he kept firing at the copper-skinned corpse that suppressed Hou Zhenbang.
Although the bullet was firmly hit into the body of the copper corpse, it could be clearly seen by the light of the headlamp that the bullet was only embedded in the surface of the skin, and the curved dagger that He Changqing took off next to him was enough to show that the copper corpse was almost invulnerable.
