Chapter 176: The Catastrophe of the Giant Serpent
I was reminded of some of the things I had heard in prison before.
At that time, it was also time to let the wind go, and a few of our pretty good inmates bragged about it together.
At that time, some people said that they were bold or something, went up to the mountains to poach, killed snakes, and ate snake meat, saying that snakes were afraid when they saw him.
And a fellow inmate who looked a little old-fashioned said that it was because he just looked at a snake, or a few snakes, and sometimes the number determines the guts.
At that time, we all laughed at him for being timid.
But today, I really realized that this is really a philosophical saying.
It's true that the number determines the guts, and now the number of these things makes me feel a little frightened, which is no longer more than a sentence that can be described.
I felt my legs go a little weak, but I knew I couldn't go down now, everyone was waiting for me to speak.
"Don't panic just yet." At the critical moment, it was Brother Long, although that Xiaoqi was also the captain, but when she saw the snake, her whole body trembled.
Girls are naturally afraid of these things, and there is no way to do it.
Brother Long glanced at everyone and said, "They didn't come out in the dark, which means that the glass below here is still very strong, and I don't think they will come out." ”
Everyone nodded.
I really want to refute Brother Long, the reason why they didn't come out is completely because they are locked up in it now, but if we touch some mechanism, maybe we will let go of these things, and then, we will really die.
With so many snakes coming out, it is impossible for a person to fight them.
Brother Long glanced at me and said, "Captain Wen, you are the only person who can't waver in your heart now, you can see first, what kind of position we are in now, and what we are going to do next." ”
As he spoke, he walked over and patted me vigorously on the shoulder.
It hurts a little bit, but I have to say, it's a good way to feel a little more relaxed, and pain is sometimes the best medicine for fear.
I just glanced around.
The nine doors, and there are numbers on them, are in the form of that number, but not Arabic numerals, but one to nine with a capital Chinese character.
This room is also very special, if you look closely, it is a bit like an eye state, with a wall behind us, presenting a solitude, and the same is true in front.
Seeing this shape, I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and above it was the base of the tower composed of seventy-two gossip rooms.
If we look at the form of the tower, this floor should be smaller than the previous one, and we should be in a small corner near the edge of the tower.
Then this solitary degree, that is, it means that it is a circle.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but smile bitterly, to be honest, I have also seen some towers, hexagonal, octagonal, and even round towers.
But the top is octagonal, and the bottom is a round tower, which I really haven't seen before.
Unless the whole tower is made of a round tower, but the room above it is opened.
But it's not the main thing, it's mainly the nine doors in front of us, which is what we mean by choice.
"Xiaowen, what do you think?" Brother Long asked.
I shook my head, there were too many mechanisms to choose from in the nine gates, and if I chose to do so, it would be almost a stroke of luck, because I didn't know what would be in there.
Brother Long didn't speak, just looked around to see the situation.
I saw him walk up to the glass, and he didn't look scared at all.
And the snakes below obviously saw him, and some of them raised their heads and stared at his movements, but they didn't attack.
Okay, as long as the snakes don't come up, there's no problem.
The whole group eased up a bit, and the rest of the group followed and watched, except for the four women who sat in the middle with me, and no one moved.
I didn't move because I was afraid, but because I was wondering what the nine doors in front of me meant.
In my mind's eye, there are at least three of the Nine Gates that fit into such a large tower-like structure.
One is the Nine Doors and Nine Paths, which is simply a special clearance game, and the nine doors are actually living doors, and they are all dead doors.
Behind each door, there is a passage.
I don't know the size of the channel, but it's certain that there will be a lot of traps and stuff in the channel.
Entering the interior leads directly to the final destination, but only if you survive such a trap.
This is the most terrible situation, because if we all enter one gate, it is unrealistic, there are too many of us, and we will definitely have to be divided into groups at that time, so whether I can go over or not is unknown.
The other is called the Nine Curved Corridor, this kind of mechanism is the easiest, enter it, although it looks like a passage, but all the routes are intersecting, you can imagine, walking and walking, there will be an X road in front of you to choose which side to take.
Of course, there are no traps in it, and this kind of trap array is mainly used to confuse the route.
Inside, there is only one door to go out, and when you walk inside, you will slowly turn around because there are too many forks in the road.
The reason why the nine-song corridor is simple is because when you go to the dead end, as long as you keep walking to the right, then it is very likely to go out, provided that there is no mechanism at the end of the dead end.
This kind of mechanism is arranged at the end, so relatively speaking, the danger factor will be lower.
There is also a situation where the nine eyes are on the ground.
When I thought about it, my whole scalp exploded.
It's it, the snake down here, it's for this mechanism, and it's a headache, and it's the last thing I want to encounter is a mechanism.
"Brother Wen, what's wrong? Your face is not pretty. Zhang Siqiao looked at me, and a voice of concern came.
I gritted my teeth and shook my head vigorously, this is not a good-looking situation, but we are now in a big problem.
"Xiaowen, what happened?" Brother Long walked over slowly at this time, probably hearing Zhang Siqiao's voice.
I looked at Brother Long, and said with a little difficulty: "Trouble Brother Long, we have encountered a special formation, which is the Nine Eyes into the ground." ”
"Nine eyes to the ground, what is that? I haven't heard of it. Zhang Shihong didn't know where to come from, and sat directly next to me.
Nine eyes into the ground, this kind of array is also known as the seventy-two earth evil gates.
Its composition principle is not difficult, there are nine doors here, eight of which are death doors, and if you enter it, you may be seriously injured if you don't die.
It's hard to come out alive anyway, and only one door is right.
But this correct door is not so simple, and even if we enter the right door, we will face nine such doors next.
Again, there is only one correct way, and in this way, you have to go eight times, and at the end of the correct door, it should be the passage that leads to the bottom.
The difficulty of this mechanism lies in the choice, eight, nine, seventy-two gates, you must go right every time, otherwise it is the door of mortality.
Of course, the so-called certain death is not something that can be seen as soon as you open the door, you have to walk a certain distance to know it.
In other words, you don't know if what you walked in was right or wrong, and when you were halfway there, even if you found out that it was wrong, you couldn't go back.
After saying this, Zhang Shihong frowned and said, "In other words, we have to choose the right one?" ”
I nodded, I had to choose the right one, it was a prerequisite, and there was no reason to talk about it.
As soon as she said this, Xiaoqi translated with those foreigners, and immediately one of them spoke a lot of foreign words to me.
I saw Brother Long and they all frowned, obviously a little unhappy.
And Xiao Qi's face was a little embarrassed, and then he said: "What he means is that we now have advanced equipment and so many people, so we shouldn't be so helpless, right?" Could it be that you're talking too pessimistically? ”
"I can tell him that I'm not pessimistic, and the current situation is like this, just like the array above, even if you have advanced technology, don't you have so many people dead?"
As soon as I said this, I saw that the foreigner's face immediately became unsightly, and he was a little angry, obviously he couldn't stand such words.
I wondered, I just said, how could he behave like this?
However, Xiao Qi immediately explained that there was a dead person on it, it was his younger brother, and the two of them came here together, and now that person is dead.
Well, I knew why he was so angry, so I didn't say anything.
Brother Long thought for a moment and said, "Xiaowen, if you say so, then we have no choice at all?" ”
"It's not completely impossible, I can calculate this array."
"Say it earlier." Lu Xiaodan slapped me directly on the back, I looked back at her, she immediately stuck out her tongue at me, and said, "I'm sorry, Brother Wen, but you should have said it earlier, you can figure it out, and then you still say so much to scare us." ”
"I'm not trying to scare you, I can figure it out, because I've calculated it before, but I'm going to say yes, I calculated it last time, and it was the wrong result."
At this time, everyone stopped talking, and it took a long time for Brother Long to say: "When did it count?" ”
"When I was in elementary school." I remember when I was in the fourth grade of elementary school, and my father was one of the few people who took care of me at home.
He asked me to do the math in exchange for a bicycle.
As a result, I counted seven or eight times in a row, and the final result was the same, but when I got to him, it was all wrong.
And at this time he was about to leave, so he left without buying me the bike.
That's one of the things I hated about him, and now that I think about it, when I miscalculated, he didn't give me a proper answer.
Damn, this is a headache, who would have thought that I would really encounter this formation.
