Chapter 324: The Eight Paths of Ascension
I think there is only such an explanation, on the ancient battlefield, although there will be captures, but the average general-level person, if you want to die, it is still very simple.
Even a character like the overlord Xiang Yu would kill himself, let alone a Wen Tianxiang, and Wen Tianxiang has been fighting on the front line, it is impossible not to guard against being captured.
Then there is only one possibility, that is, Wen Tianxiang and Zhang Hongfan should have done something secretly, or for the future arrangement, then the current arrangement is the best result that can be selected at that time.
If Wen Tianxiang was captured, he would have already become a prisoner at that time, so it would be too simple to take his blood, I think those people in the Yuan Dynasty were not stupid, they would definitely think of this.
But even if it is blood, it is useless, those officials of the Yuan Dynasty, although they have not come here to try, they should know that Wen Tianxiang does not say where this place is, and they can't find it.
So in the end, Wen Tianxiang was courteous, and he continued to persuade him to surrender until he could not persuade him to surrender, all of this from the beginning, it was the three heroes of the late Song Dynasty, or rather, it was a trap set by Wen Tianxiang and Zhang Hongfan, and countless people were tricked.
"It does make sense, Shihong, you come." After listening to this, Brother Long immediately changed his strategy.
Zhang Shihong nodded, took the needle from my hand, pricked his finger, and dripped blood on it.
Sure enough, as soon as the blood entered the hole, there was a rumbling sound from the stone.
It was about to be opened, and a few of us immediately took a few steps back, and no one knew how this mechanism was going to be opened in the end.
After waiting for a while, I saw that the stone actually slowly rotated, and the stone was semicircular, and this rotation immediately revealed a space below.
The height of this space is not high, only about one meter high, and if we want to get in, we have to climb in.
I glanced at Brother Long, and looked in through the hollow, it was pitch black, and I couldn't see anything inside, and the passage was very long, and I was afraid that if we climbed halfway up and closed this place, it would squeeze us all inside.
"To get in?" Brother Long glanced at me, and I also shone a flashlight into it at this time, as if it was getting wider and wider the further I went.
"In pairs, in." After thinking about it for a while, after all, we are here for this, and it is a pity not to enter.
Brother Long nodded and said, "Come in." ”
After speaking, he directly took Zhang Shihong's first group and crawled inside.
The people in the back immediately followed, I was in a group with Lu Xiaodan, and then Zhang Siqiao and Liya, and several other people in the back cooperated, and the last to enter was Brother Tiger and Bill.
Brother Long put them behind, which can be regarded as a monitoring role, I believe that with Brother Tiger's strength, even if there is something wrong with that Bill, he can stop it at the first time.
After crawling down the passage for about ten minutes, I felt that the area above me seemed to be much more empty.
Brother Long and Zhang Shihong in front had actually stood up, although they were still bent over, but it was obvious that there was already some height here.
They continue to move forward, and the further they go, the more space there becomes, and finally they can stand up and walk.
And the distance between the two sides is getting wider and wider, at first it was only the width of two people walking side by side, but now it is estimated that we are all side by side, and there is no problem.
"Spread out a little so you don't get caught in the net." Brother Long and Zhang Shihong separated a little, and at the same time asked the people behind to speed up their pace and form a group of three or three, but each group asked to disperse.
Naturally, I was in a group with Lu Xiaodan and Zhang Siqiao, but our group walked in the middle of the entire team, because we had already entered here, so next, it was possible that we were facing the mechanism.
So my group must be at the forefront and ready to command them at any time, and Brother Long, Zhang Shihong and Xiaoqi form a group, and their group can be regarded as a command group.
Brother Tiger is in a group with that Bill and Leah, and they go a little further back, and they still exist after breaking.
On the other side was the one, two, and three, and they formed a group, and I could see that they were walking very casually, as if they did not think of this place as a dangerous place in the slightest.
"Xiaowen, what should I do next?" Brother Long motioned for all the teams to stop, and then took the flashlight and shone forward, there was actually a dead end in front, the entire passage was blocked, and only one wall could be seen.
The wall was still about 100 meters away from us, but the flashlight shone through and we could see it very clearly.
I glanced at the map in my hand and frowned, this map is not a cross-sectional map, from the map, I can only see that the mechanism here should have eight passages, but the passages are overhead.
At this time, if the flashlight shines upwards, the top of the head is about ten meters away from us, and it is difficult for us to go up to this height.
And there are eight passages, this is called the Eight Paths of Ascension, and the passages that go up are all called by this method, but the general Ascension Path, there are stone ladders and the like below, but this one is obviously not.
"Let's go over there first, and be careful of what other mechanisms are here." I shone it with a flashlight, but I couldn't see the situation in front of me, nor could I see the Eight Paths of Ascension.
Brother Long nodded at this time, signaled everyone to pay attention, and then walked forward, I took Xiao Dan and Siqiao and immediately followed, there is no sense of danger here, so don't worry too much.
Soon I went to the wall of more than 100 meters, and looking at the wall, I felt a little depressed, because the wall was very smooth, not to mention the stone staircase, and there was no place to hold a hand.
Reaching out and touching the wall, I realized that it might be a mechanism, because on the wall, I could feel some small cracks, and I felt along the thin cracks, and the length and width of these small cracks were about the size of a brick.
This size is just right for hand grips and foot pedaling.
I groped up and down again, there were more and more such cracks, and I was sure that these places should be controlled by organs, and then I shone a flashlight on them.
There are indeed eight openings in it, and it can be seen that those openings are attached to the wall, and there are also protruding stone brick-sized things inside.
In other words, if we open this mechanism, then we can directly climb up and follow this eight paths of ascension, and finally reach the top, as for what is at the top, it is difficult to say.
"There should be a mechanism here, a mechanism for the Eight Realms of Ascension." I explained what I found to them.
"In a group of three, search around, if you encounter a mechanism, don't move around first, and wait for Captain Wen to see it." At this time, I am the main leader, and I am naturally the captain.
Brother Long's order is only for the team, and if it encounters a mechanism, it will definitely be up to me, the deputy captain, to take a look at it.
We quickly separated, and I didn't move, just studying the stone bricks on the wall.
"Brother Wen, do we have to look around too, I feel that those people seem to be a little disobedient." Lu Xiaodan came to me and said softly.
Of course, they were disobedient, and it can be seen from the way they looked for the mechanism that they did not look for it with their eyes at all, but constantly touched it with their hands, kicked it with their feet, and even took out a sapper shovel, and in some places, they even knocked and beat.
If this really encounters the mechanism, they will definitely be the first to die in such a rude way, I didn't pay attention to it, and went with them, but Brother Long's group is not a big problem, although Brother Tiger's group is also a little rude, but Brother Tiger follows, I don't think the problem will be too big.
"Don't worry about them for now, I'll just take a look at the eight paths of this ascension, after I go up, I don't know what will happen." As I spoke, I glanced up.
Damn, I was so frightened that my hair stood on end, because at this moment, in the passage above my head, I saw a man.
No, it should be said, it seems to be a person, and that person's face looks like a human being, and he is also staring at me, but just for a moment, he turned around and walked towards it.
His lower body is actually in the shape of a fish, I've seen this, isn't this the last deputy god I saw in the ancient city of Yinshan?
How did it come out here.
"Brother Wen, what's wrong with you?" Zhang Siqiao's voice came, which woke me up, and when I looked up again, I couldn't see anything, and the person was gone.
Is it a hallucination? No, it shouldn't be an illusion, there was indeed a humanoid monster just now, or a deputy god, I still remember, in the ancient city, the deputy god we faced at the end was not an opponent at all.
"Everyone, pay attention, don't mess around." I shouted loudly, if these people accidentally get that fish-man down, then we will be miserable, our current weapons and equipment are not necessarily better than then, so we are not opponents.
"Roger." Brother Long answered.
"Roger." This is Brother Tiger's voice, and then there is no response, damn it, these guys, they really don't take me seriously, just four groups, and one group, they don't respond.
I looked to the side in hatred, and then the whole person was dumbfounded, no, there are fewer of us.
"Stop, what about the fourth group?" I yelled.
Brother Long, they probably only discovered the problem at this time, so they came closer, and shone a flashlight on it all around, and there was indeed no fourth group, and the three guys on No. 1, 2, and 3 actually disappeared.
When did it happen? There's not even a sound, it's impossible.
Bill also ran over at this time, his face was also pale, obviously he didn't expect such a thing to happen.
"They're gone?" Xiaoqi asked.
I nodded: "It should be that they have found the mechanism, but they are too anxious, gather our people, I will personally lead the team to find the mechanism, you just follow it." ”
