Chapter 41: Two Choices
"The other three directions of the gossip are Kun position, exchange position, and Kan position, corresponding to the three potentials of earth, ze, and water, and water are born of water, and water and gas are combined, and the secret passage will inevitably be opened, but this gold tripod weighs 10,000 catties, or maybe it weighs 1,000 catties, or even hundreds of catties, but no matter how many catties, it is not a person or two people who can move it, whether you can move it, it depends on your creation!" As the master spoke, he dodged to the side, put his hands behind his back, and quietly stared at the tall golden tripod in front of him.
For a while, I saw four police officers, including Kuizi and Song Bao, pouting their buttocks and holding Jin Ding, instantly exerting their strength and pushing desperately......
"Hey!"
"Hey!"
"Hey!"
But after shouting for a long time, and also exerting strength for a long time, I saw that the golden tripod was not moving, so tired that the four of them were sweating profusely, their legs were weak, and they sat on the ground.
"I said Zhang Zhenren, this golden tripod is too heavy, our brothers really can't move, why don't you two help us?" Kuiko gasped for breath and pleaded in fits and starts.
"If our master and apprentice have helped, then open the treasure, will it be yours or ours? Hehe! Master smiled strangely and stood still.
"This ...... Then don't bother Zhang Zhenren, brothers, let's work harder, we must push away this big gold tripod, I said that I see gold on weekdays than I see my own Lao Tzu, why do you see such a big piece of gold now, I don't have the strength? ! Kuizi yelled and shouted, rested for a while, and immediately encouraged a few people to continue to stand up and desperately push the golden tripod.
It's so difficult, but in order not to share the treasure and suddenly refuse our help, I can't help but laugh bitterly, greed can really make people go crazy and become crazy!
"Boom ......"
Suddenly, under the desperate push of Kuizi and others, the huge golden tripod really moved slowly, seeing this scene, several people tried their best, gritted their teeth and used the strength of milk, finally, the golden tripod was moved little by little, and the bottom of the golden tripod, two strands of golden powder, but like a graceful fairy, lightly floated down.
"Hahaha! It's really gold dust! Brothers, work harder, and you'll be done in no time! The faces of the sergeants were almost red with blood and sweat, and their faces were as red as pig's liver, but the moment they saw the gold dust, they worked even harder, as if they were using endless strength to urge them to turn things upside down.
"Buzz!"
Nearly half an hour passed, the position of the golden tripod, finally according to the master's requirements, placed correctly, at this moment, two strands of gold dust straight down, each into the yin and yang fish eyes, and then, the Taiji Bagua diagram suddenly made a trembling sound, everyone was shocked, and quickly retreated to the edge position, looking at the changes in the Taiji diagram with a shocked face.
Sure enough, as the master said, the Taiji diagram slowly opened and closed to both sides under the infusion of gold powder, and in the middle part, there was a circular dark passage, a touch of golden air waves, rippling in the wind, seeing the gold dust falling in the air, Kuizi and others reached out to catch up like crazy, some freed up their pockets to load, and some took it all in their arms, the appearance was weird and dazzling, and people couldn't help laughing.
"That's it! The gold dust is as fine as powder, and you collect it like this, when will you have to collect it? Now that the secret passage has been opened, let's go down and find out if there is any treasure, just look at it! The master waved impatiently to stop the dull movements of the crowd, and strode to the bottom of the golden tripod.
When everyone heard this, they all agreed, however, when all of us were on the edge of the Taiji diagram, when we looked down, we were suddenly scared into a cold sweat, only to see that the so-called secret passage at the moment was a suspended wooden ladder, in the dark passage, swaying, it seemed that a little force could be dragged in, if it went down like this, in case the wooden ladder broke, wouldn't it be in vain......
"I was busy for a long time, but this is the result, alas!" Kuizi wiped a handful of sweat, sighed deeply, and looked at the suspended wooden ladder below, his face was slightly pale.
"If you want to do something, how can it be so easy, there are currently two roads leading to the bottom, one is the stone ladder outside, and the other is the wooden ladder in this dark passage, ladies and gentlemen, do you choose a stone ladder or a wooden ladder, now is the time to choose!" Master frowned and said.
"Zhang Zhenren, you also saw it just now, a few of us have exhausted our strength in order to move the golden tripod, in case something happens to the wooden ladder, we have no room for regret at all......" Kuizi said slowly with a bitter face.
"So, you're planning to take the stone stairs?" Master asked suspiciously.
"Hmmm! A few of us decided to take the stone staircase, the stone staircase is safe, so we won't take too much risk, anyway, we can go to the bottom, let's take the stone staircase! This sentence was said by Song Bao, just because the leader beckoned everyone to work for a long time, but this was the result, and the rest of the people had lost trust in him, as soon as Song Bao spoke, the rest of the people nodded heavily and agreed.
"What about you?" The master looked at the quizi who bowed his head and said with a smile.
"I ...... I also chose to walk the stone ladder with Song Bao and others, Zhang Zhenren, what should you do with Master Xiaojiu? Do you take a wooden ladder or a stone ladder? Kuizi suddenly stared at the master, as if there was a hint of suspicion in his eyes.
"Although there are two roads, there is no guarantee that one of them will lead to the bottom, you choose to take the stone ladder, then I and Xiaojiu take the wooden ladder, this is not delayed, once we get to the bottom, we will meet again, so arranged, can you?" The master looked at everyone with a cautious face and asked seriously.
"I think what Zhang Zhenren said is very reasonable, then according to what Zhang Zhenren said, let's take the stone ladder, Zhang Zhenren and Xiaojiu Master take the wooden ladder, so that it is foolproof!" Song Bao suddenly pulled Kuizi's sleeve and whispered in Kuizi's ear: "The wooden ladder is dangerous and unpredictable, they may go down and never return, anyway, the stone ladder can also lead to the bottom, we don't need them to guide the way, after finding the treasure, we will leave this place immediately!" ”
Although Song Bao's voice was like a mosquito humming, I still listened to it word for word, but I didn't expect Song Bao to have a kind face, and his heart was also extremely selfish.
"Hmmm! In that case, let's split up and hope that we can all meet below safe and sound! Master said with a smile, gave me a look, and took the lead along the wooden ladder to the inside of the dark passageway, step by step.
"Then let's go too!" Kuizi showed a strange smile to Song Bao and the others, and the four of them hurriedly walked towards the stone stairs, and at this moment, I also carefully climbed down with the rhythm of the master......
Entering the interior of the dark passage, it is as if I am in a boundless dark world, front and back, left and right, are all dark colors that cannot be seen at a glance, coupled with the violent shaking of the wooden ladder in my hand, I can't help but feel slightly hairy in my heart, I really don't understand why the master took such a dangerous way, leaving the stone ladder and not walking, what a strange old man!
"Master, why do we want to go down this dark path?" I glanced down at Master and couldn't help asking.
"Silly boy, only this secret passage is the only way to get below, you imagine the ancients too simply, since they made such a secret passage, how could they be so idiotic to get another stone ladder out, if I expected it to be true, that stone ladder must be a dead end, they can't go down, they will stay where they are, or...... Go back to your own home! Hehe! The master smiled lightly.
