Chapter 260: Bagua Diagram
I straightened up and touched the back of my head, at first glance I saw the metal thread, I couldn't help but have a sense of crossing, I didn't expect that there was this kind of smelting technology thousands of years ago, too, there are many strange things, and there is nothing unusual about the threaded cover.
This small furnace was very corroded very badly, similar to the one in the human skin workshop, the threads of the lid were rusted to death, and it took a lot of effort for Ah Chuan to turn it a little, and I could see a large mass of patina gathered there, and it was estimated that it was almost the same as pulling it out if it was opened.
The furnace in the human skin workshop also left a very bad impression on me, when Brother Shen and Nineteen tried to move it, but the two of them coincidentally stayed away, I never knew what was inside, and now I saw an identical one, and it could be opened, I couldn't suppress my curious hand.
But I still didn't dare, I turned my head to look at Ah Chuan, his curiosity was no less than mine, especially for this kind of strange things, he was always interested, he didn't see the one in the human skin workshop, this must be full of freshness for him.
Sure enough, Ah Chuan stretched out his hand to cover the lid and wanted to continue twisting, but Eleven, who was standing on the side, quickly reached out and pressed his hand, shaking his head at Ah Chuan: "We have seen similar ones, and that person thinks it is dangerous." ”
I don't know what to say, Eleven is very cautious, I thought he always didn't care about anything, the person he said must be Brother Shen, I didn't expect him to believe in Brother God so much, he has been paying attention to Brother God's words and deeds.
"Oh?"
Ah Chuan retracted his hand and looked at me thoughtfully, I was a little weak by him, curiosity trumped everything, I used to be so timid, but now it has indeed changed, no one knows what is in it, if you don't remind it, maybe it will really hurt Ah Chuan.
I regretted it a little, but Ah Chuan looked away, and his expression returned to normal, he didn't ask when we had seen a similar furnace, he just gave up on opening it.
We walked around the furnace and into the cavern, which was filled with steam, and it was not until I walked in that I noticed that the ground under my feet was also made of bronze, and I thought it was a rock that was originally black, but now I found that it was also carved with dense lines, although it had been corroded to the point that it was regular.
Ah Chuan They are also looking down, I circled around the huge furnace in the middle, only to see that there are eight exits around this cave, each exit has a small furnace, like the stars and the moon and the giant furnace in the middle of the opposite, the lines under the feet are indeed regular, I can't help but think of gossip graphics.
It's really similar, but I don't know anything about the gossip diagram, I just know the shape, I don't even know which gossip it is, I bent down slightly to look closely, only to see that there are not only strange lines on it, but also a lot of distorted characters, these words are very ancient at a glance, I have seen a few rubbings of oracle bones, and these characters are very similar, but slightly different, they seem to be more simplified.
Ah Chuan kept looking down, and I walked around the furnace, only to see that his face was excited and shocked, and he kicked his eyes, as if he wanted to engrave all the characters and lines on the ground in his mind.
"What is this? Gossip? I asked casually.
"Yes, gossip, ancient secret arts, very complete, this is a treasure," Ah Chuan's voice was loud, and his excited appearance was completely different from before, "Daze, do you know? The gossip that has been handed down from later generations is only a drop in the bucket, and the real secret art has long been lost, and I am sure that this is a complete record, but unfortunately we can't take it with us. ”
I was taken aback, but I still couldn't understand its purpose, and it didn't disturb Ah Chuan's interest, so I could only ask: "Can you understand what is written on it?" ”
Ah Chuan showed a wry smile and shook his head slightly, but he still couldn't hide his excited look: "I can only infer based on my previous understanding, this is the real immortal technique, if we can solve its mysteries, maybe we can also predict the future like the legendary immortals, the fur can still spy on the heavens, let alone complete, it's a pity, it's a pity, it's probably more important than that piece of jade, this is what we should be looking for." ”
I don't understand, so I can't interject, I've never seen Ah Chuan so excited, and nothing can make him say twice in a row It's a pity, although he is curious about abnormal things, but curiosity is not careful, he really can't hold back this time.
If you can really predict the future by unlocking its mystery, it can indeed be called a fairy art, looking at Ah Chuan's appearance, it seems that it is not only as simple as predicting the future, but unfortunately the bronze plate has suffered corrosion, and many places are mottled, this ancient text even Ah Chuan can't understand, and it is not a matter of a day or two to fully translate it.
Ah Chuan is still watching, as if he is fascinated, I don't dare to disturb, it is useless for me to predict the future, I want it to manifest and tell us the location of the jade and the way out.
I was a little bored, and looked at the giant furnace in front of me again, and when I got closer, I only felt that it was bigger, and the demons on the furnace were densely patterned, and I was dizzy to see it, and I lowered my head slightly, and focused on the flames under the furnace, I cared more about where these flames came from than the ethereal things.
The flame burned too vigorously, I couldn't get close, but I could faintly see that more than a meter away from the outer perimeter of the furnace was sunken, there seemed to be something inside, white flowers, and there was also a black thing in the center of the belly of the furnace, but unfortunately I couldn't see it clearly through the flames, I only knew that it was not small, about cylindrical, with a diameter of about two meters.
Two meters is still much smaller than ten meters, it is hidden in the center of the furnace, it seems to be connected to the furnace, if you want to see clearly, you can only extinguish the fire outside, but there is no way to get water here, even if there is water, it is difficult to say whether this flame can be extinguished.
It was so hot, I didn't expect to sweat on this island, the steam brought a lot of moisture, I felt the strange smell all over my body, I moved a little away from it, I wanted to see if there was any place where I could see the top of the furnace, this furnace was so huge, I had to stand on a high place to put something in it, but there was nothing here, the rock in the cave was fairly flat, there was no hole above, and there was nothing to climb up.
Could that person really not be able to fly? I got used to the smell and was so curious that I wanted to see what was going on in this stove.
I turned around, not only did I not have a place to stand on a high place, I didn't even see the mechanism to open the lid, it may be hidden in the eight passages around, I held up the flashlight and looked at it one by one, I could only see more than ten meters, and then it was dark inside.
Ah Chuan didn't look at the ground again, his eyes also fell on the furnace, with a bit of indescribable meaning in his eyes, he must have wanted to open it more than I did.
I turned my head to look at Eleven, who had been standing at the crack in the rock where we had entered, seemingly uncurious about everything here, and Ah Chuan had also noticed something under the furnace, and he looked puzzled.
"Osawa, do you want to see what's in here?" Achuan's voice was full of temptation.
I just wanted to say "of course", but I held it back, but forget it, there are too many strange things here, it's hard to say if there will be danger hidden inside, those little furnaces are enough to make people tremble.
"Don't be, can you see where to go, let's hurry up and find the jade, let's go quickly." My voice is a little astringent, it's too hot in here.
Ah Chuan frowned slightly, and the corners of his mouth were raised: "I really don't want to?" ”
I didn't answer, and he didn't continue, just pointed to one of the rock crevices and said, "This is Shengmen." ”
I turned around and looked, this rock crack is no different from others, I don't know about gossip, but I've heard a little about the gossip array, since Ah Chuan is commensurate with Shengmen, it means that there is a formation here.
"Don't have that expression, if I say hexagram, can you understand it?" Ah Chuan came over and stood side by side with me, "Actually, I have long suspected that there is a formation, not here, but the whole island, it takes this place as the core, laying a maze, this island is obviously not big, don't you think we have been turning for too long?" If it's a formation interference, maybe it makes sense, and those strange monsters, maybe they're all fake. ”
Ah Chuan said, I also think that this island may be a maze, the road we walked is too mismatched with the size of the island itself, just like Eleven, he has already fallen, but he has been in this area, and he is very sure that he is not going around, which is enough to explain a lot of problems, but I feel that those monsters should be real, Ah Chuan fell early, and only knows those white-haired monsters hidden in the dark, the real danger is above.
Ah Chuan definitely can't solve the formation here, he can only rely on guessing and inference on this gossip map, this is indeed a master, we have been in a deep maze since the moment we entered the floating island.
"Jade is in the birth gate?" I turned my head and spoke.
The surprise on Ah Chuan's face flashed, and he raised his eyebrows: "Daze, I didn't expect you to think so highly of me, I'm really flattered." ”
I pouted, if he knew where the jade was, how could we have to turn it around for so long, and my IQ would not be enough to be with him.
"I think the door of life is enough, but the door of death is possible."
Ah Chuan's eyes were on another rock crevice, and I followed him to see that it was just an ordinary rock crevice, black and oppressive, and I didn't know where it leads, but I was still a little uneasy by him, as if something would come out of it at any time.
"So...... Which one to take? I spoke softly, my heart heavy.
"Wait for someone," Ah Chuan turned to Lu Ding, "I can't tell, if the jade is really at the door of death, I am afraid that we will not be able to get it." ”
