Tang Qianlin took out his phoenix tail ruler, rolled it into a compass, and buckled it upside down in the center of the bronze mirror, looking around and calculating there.

Li Yunfan asked Yi Mochen in a low voice beside him: "I'm almost forgetting all these things." ”

Yi Mochen said: "Have you really studied?" ”

Li Yunfan said: "I have learned, my master forced me to learn." ”

Yi Mochen smiled: "Then aren't you betraying your beliefs?" ”

Li Yunfan said: "Get out!" These are two different things. ”

An Ran approached Tang Qianlin and asked, "What does the symbol on this mean?" ”

Tang Qianlin explained: "This is a fusion of Qimen Dunjia and the star map, the upper and lower left and right sides of the bronze mirror and the center part represent the five evil stars, the north side above is the arm market, the south side below is the corner, the left west side is the heart, the right east side is the sun change, and the middle position is the ghost willow, this is the star map." ”

An Ran nodded: "What about Qimen Dunjia?" ”

Tang Qianlin said: "This explanation is a bit complicated, there are many small black dots in the ribbon area above, these are not the traces left by the years, but the location of the stars and the stars, which is the way to combine the five elements of yin and yang and the twenty-eight stars. ”

An Ran didn't understand at all, and asked again: "I'm asking about Qimen Dunjia?" ”

Tang Qianlin looked at her and said: "Don't worry, listen to me, the Qi Gate is divided into eight gates, namely the Door of Rest, the Gate of Life, the Gate of Injury, the Gate of Du, the Gate of Jing, the Gate of Death, the Gate of Surprise and the Door of Opening, the corresponding numbers are one, eight, three, four, five, two, seven, six, and the directions are completely different, and this mirror is divided into three layers, that is, there are three circles from the inside to the outside, the first circle is the Qi Gate, the second circle is the twenty-eight constellations, and the third circle is the outermost five evil stars, in fact, these things cannot be coherent together, that is, even if you understand one of them, you may not know everything, and you can't open it. ”

Ni Xiaowan on the side reacted quickly: "In other words, this bronze mirror is a three-layer mechanism, either from the outside to the inside, or from the inside to the outside, circle by circle, and then it will be activated?" ”

Tang Qianlin said: "Yes, that's what it means, but you have to calculate, you wait for me, be quiet for a while, don't speak." ”

Tang Qianlin sat there with a compass, carefully calculating.

Yi Mochen was so idle, he chatted with Li Yunfan for a while, and looked at it with his account book for a while, and when he walked up to An Ran to talk, he was glared at by An Ran: "Can't you be quiet?" ”

Yi Mochen immediately shut up, stood aside, watched An Ran sit patiently beside Tang Qianlin and watched, and handed Tang Qianlin water from time to time.

I think it's better for you to chase this girl yourself. Yi Mochen thought in his heart.

After a long time, Tang Qianlin raised his eyes and said, "Yunfan, you stick close to the bronze statue and walk fifteen steps to the west." ”

Li Yunfan nodded, distinguished the left and right, walked fifteen steps in the direction he came, and asked, "What now?" ”

Tang Qianlin said: "Look at what is under your feet?" ”

Li Yunfan lowered his head: "There is only soil." ”

Tang Qianlin said: "Then dig down, be careful." ”

Li Yunfan dug down carefully for a while, and found that there was indeed a moving stone slab underneath, and after prying it up, he saw that there was a pull ring in it: "There is a pull ring." ”

"Don't move." Tang Qianlin looked at Yi Mochen again, "Boss Yi, take three steps towards the north." ”

Yi Mochen followed the instructions and took three steps towards the left side of the bronze statue: "I'm going to dig too?" ”

Tang Qianlin nodded: "Dig up the soil on the cave wall." ”

Yi Mochen did so, and also found a pull ring there, and similarly, Tang Qianlin also asked him to stand still.

Subsequently, Ye Da and Ni Xiaowan also found two pull rings on the right side of the bronze statue and in front of the bronze statue under Tang Qianlin's instructions.

Tang Qianlin got up, looked at the bronze mirror and said, "The last one is the inner circle." ”

Tang Qianlin pressed the inner ring with his hand and said to the others: "When I said pull, you guys pulled the pull ring together, got it?" It has to be at the same time, and if there is a deviation, it may turn on something else, and then we will not die, but it will be difficult to find the switch again. ”

An Ran stood aside nervously and asked, "What can I do?" ”

Tang Qianlin said calmly: "You cheer us on." ”

Hearing this, An Ran almost laughed, but held back, looked at Tang Qianlin and nodded very seriously.

Tang Qianlin slowly twisted the inner circle, and just as he was about to finish twisting a circle, he shouted to the others: "Pull!" ”

While the other four people pulled the pull ring, Tang Qianlin also twisted the inner ring to its original position, and then heard the sound of the gate opening and water gushing out, and then the bronze statue in front of him shook for a moment, and the middle of the bronze statue revealed a gap that could reach into the wrist.

An Ran looked at the gap and said, "It turns out that the entrance is inside the bronze statue?" ”

Tang Qianlin wiped the sweat on his forehead and said: "Yes, it's the second lap now, and the second lap is simpler than the first lap, but you need to have a steady hand." ”

An Ran asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Tang Qianlin pointed to the bronze mirror and said, "Have you seen the inner circle?" ”

An Ran looked at the inner circle carefully: "The inner circle has been trapped." ”

"Yes." Tang Qianlin rolled up his sleeves, "I have to press down the middle ring now, and it must be kept in the same position as the inner ring, and it won't be the slightest difference." ”

An Ran asked, "Are you sure about it?" ”

Tang Qianlin shook his head: "It's really not big, my hands are not stable." ”

As he spoke, Tang Qianlin turned to look at the others: "Which of you has a more stable hand?" ”

Li Yunfan said: "I'll come, my hands are more stable." ”

Li Yunfan walked to the bronze mirror, also rolled up his sleeves, and everyone else gathered around to watch, Li Yunfan turned his head to look at the people around him: "You don't want to surround me, okay?" ”

Everyone dispersed again, Li Yunfan pressed down slowly according to the inner circle, and the people around him held their breath until his hand was released and the gap in the bronze statue opened again, and everyone exhaled the breath held in their chests.

Yi Mochen looked at the gap and said, "Now people can squeeze in, and there is no need to open the last mechanism, right?" ”

Tang Qianlin said: "Where is there such a simple thing. ”

An Ran asked, "How to open the last mechanism?" ”

Tang Qianlin pointed to the outer ring and said: "After the inner ring and the middle ring are pressed, the outer ring is exposed, do you see the holes on the inside of the outer ring?" It needs to be stuck in the small hole and dragged out. ”

"To what extent?" Li Yunfan asked, and the others also looked at Tang Qianlin.

Tang Qianlin shook his head: "I don't know, the first and second circles before, I relied on calculations and past understanding of sewing thousands of corpses, the third circle, I only know how to pull out, as for the extent of pulling, I don't know, I didn't know too much about this kind of thing." ”

Ni Xiaowan looked at the small hole in the outer ring: "But, we don't have any tools?" ”

Tang Qianlin stretched out his hand and said, "Just pick it with your fingers." ”

As he spoke, Tang Qianlin picked at the small hole inside with one hand: "You all get out of the way, I don't know what will happen, it would be strange if the entrance was opened so simply." ”

After the others got out of the way, Tang Qianlin began to pull the outer ring outward, and while dragging, the gap in the bronze statue gradually widened, until finally opened the gap that was enough for one person to enter, An Ran immediately said: "It's okay!" It's opened! ”

Tang Qianlin breathed a sigh of relief, and as soon as he let go, who knew that the outer ring was immediately reset, and the gap gradually began to close.

Tang Qianlin hurriedly went up and grabbed it again and pulled it out: "It seems that you have to keep pulling." ”

Yi Mochen looked at the gap and said, "Why don't we go in first, there will be some time for the gap to be reset, and you will wait for us to all go in before rushing in?" ”

Tang Qianlin thought for a while and said, "I can't go in, I don't think it's that simple." ”

Ni Xiaowan frowned and said, "Uncle Shi, are you too suspicious?" It's complicated enough. ”

"I told you not to move! Don't move! Tang Qianlin struggled to continue dragging the outer ring outward, who knew that while the outer ring was opening further and further, the gap was getting bigger and bigger, and the bronze statue was directly divided into two halves, and at the same time, a secret door on the cave wall three meters away in front of the bronze statue was also opened, and the moat inside gushed out directly.

Seeing this, everyone immediately asked Tang Qianlin to let go, Tang Qianlin also immediately let go, Yi Mochen said that he was about to rush into the bronze statue, but was pushed away by Tang Qianlin.

Because the ground was full of water, Yi Mochen fell directly, got up and pointed at Tang Qianlin and said, "There's something wrong with you, right?" ”

Tang Qianlin looked at the gap: "You can't go in, it's not that simple, the so-called organ is a bureau within a bureau, and it's so easy to unravel, and many people can go in." ”

As he spoke, Tang Qianlin shone a flashlight into the cave below the bronze statue: "Look, there are all corpses down here!" ”

Everyone stepped forward to take a look, and if this was the case, Yi Mochen stopped talking, and said after a while: "I'm sorry." ”

At this time, the water that poured in had already reached the thighs of everyone, and Li Yunfan looked down and said, "Then where is the entrance?" If this continues, the hole will be flooded! ”

An Ran stepped forward and tried to press the outer ring back again, but no matter how hard he tried, the outer ring did not move.

An Ran shook his head and said, "No way!" I can't reset, what should I do? ”

Tang Qianlin looked around, and the others began to look aimlessly. Seeing that the water was submerging to his waist, Tang Qianlin's body suddenly lowered, swam towards the secret door, looked at the water that kept gushing out, turned his head and said, "If the water doesn't stop yet, you guys should hurry back!" ”

After speaking, Tang Qianlin grabbed the side of the secret door and drilled into the secret door against the gushing water, but he was soon rushed out again, he did not give up, and struggled to get in again.

"What are you going to do?" Yi Mochen shouted in the water, "Are you looking for death!?" Come back to me! ”

Everyone shouted for Tang Qianlin, but he didn't seem to hear it at all when he had already entered, so everyone floated in the water and waited, and Tang Qianlin didn't come back for a long time.

The water finally flooded the position above everyone's heads, and Li Yunfan said to the people around him: "We have to go back, otherwise we will all drown here." ”

"No way!" An Ran refused, "We have to wait for him!" ”

Ni Xiaowan also said: "You can't leave Uncle Shi alone!" ”

Li Yunfan said: "It's not to leave him, anyway, you two girls will go back to me first, and I'll go in to find Tang Qianlin!" ”

Yi Mochen gritted his teeth: "I'll go too!" ”

While the two were talking, Ye Da had already swam towards the location of the secret door, and after diving, he tried to get in, but because he was underwater, because of various factors such as pressure and buoyancy, he couldn't break through the current at all.

Li Yunfan looked at An Ran and Ni Xiaowan who were still stunned, and was anxious: "Don't leave yet!" Hurry up! Don't grind! ”

At this moment, there was a rumbling sound under the water, and at the same time, Ye Da near the secret door also found that the water was no longer gushing out, and the water level was also dropping rapidly.

Ye Da surfaced and watched as the water level continued to drop.

An Ran finally smiled: "Okay! Tang Qianlin succeeded! The trap is in the secret door! ”
