Chapter 142: The Labyrinth of the Phantasmal Sun
Gu Feng saw that Yexin was about to explain, worried that Benzoin would feel humiliated, so he took the first step to explain: "Ah Xiang, this is called the phantom sun, and you will see it from time to time on the sea. ”
Benzoin wondered: "Is it a mirage?" ”
"It's not." Gu Feng shook his head and said, "In short, it is caused by light and clouds, and if people are not sheltered in the sea, they will also have an illusion if they are constantly irradiated. ”
Benzoin still didn't quite understand: "But this kind of phantom sun can't appear at any time, right?" ”
"As I said earlier, there are differences between feng shui labyrinths and ordinary labyrinths, and there are similarities, the similarity is that there is generally no commanding height around, and even if there is, it is surrounded by mountains, and it will not be particularly eye-catching." After Tang Anshu finished speaking, he pointed to the sky and said, "Because as long as someone stands on a high place to give instructions, then the people in the maze will definitely not have a wrong judgment on the direction." ”
As soon as Tang Anshu finished speaking, everyone looked at the eye-catching mountain to the south.
Tang Anshu said with a smile: "That mountain is the mastery of this feng shui labyrinth, deliberately give you a goal, without the premise of the compass, after people are sure that the mountain is located in the south, they will always go there, but in fact, the mountain is definitely not in the south, because at the beginning the compass was affected by a large number of magnets hidden in the maze." ”
Yexin suddenly realized: "No wonder I feel that no matter how we walk, it has not shortened the distance between us and that mountain. ”
"That mountain also has a role, to build this kind of labyrinth artificially, to set up psychological traps, there must be a commanding height, so there must be a high mountain around. You see, the high position above the small hill is the transverse mountain range, and the high position behind the mountain is the mountain. Tang Anshu's fingers gradually went up, "In feng shui, outside of this kind of mountains, there are mountains exposed, called probes, according to the experience of the rivers and lakes, this kind of place is often a place where thieves haunt, and the horizontal mountains below are mostly broken, which is an excellent place to kill people and goods, it stands to reason that on the other side of the mountain, where we can't see, there is also a tear point, also known as the tear hole." ”
Ye Xin frowned when she heard this: "What do you mean?" ”
"The bottom of the other side of the mountain must be surrounded by the left and right mountains, but the left and right mountains are not connected because of this, and at first glance it looks like a person who is covering his eyes and crying, so it is called the tear hole, which is the murder position. If the ancestors are buried in such a place, the descendants will surely suffer the disaster of death in a foreign land. Tang Anshu frowned, "These places are collectively known as the fierce sand position, which is an ominous place, but the world is so big, it is simply impossible to find three connected fierce sand positions, but the people of the Earth Master Association actually did it." ”
Gu Feng looked at the mountains in the distance: "What is the purpose of this?" ”
Tang Anshu sighed slightly: "In the early years, when the earth master did evil and harmed others, he would find tomb robbers to steal the bones of the enemy's ancestors and quietly bury them in the fierce sand position, and the earth master would call this move 'killing three', that is, the meaning of killing three generations, and if he was caught, he would be tortured to death, but to set this vicious trap on this island, I think it is undoubtedly a warning to those who want to come to find Mu Lingjian to turn back quickly, otherwise if he dies here, he will not only kill the corpse wilderness, but also harm his own descendants." ”
Ye Xin listened with a look of adoration, but her expression made Benzoin extremely disgusted.
Benzoin asked coldly: "Tang Anshu, you have been showing off for a long time, you have to talk about how you should get out, right?" ”
Gu Feng frowned and looked at Benzoin, and Yexin rolled her eyes at her.
"Wait a minute, give me some time, I'll have to do the math." Tang Anshu sat down and stared at the stone, his fingers flicking rhythmically.
Ye Xin leaned forward and asked in a low voice, "Brother Anshu, don't all earth masters have compasses?" Don't you use the earth? ”
Tang Anshu frowned slightly: "I said before that if you use a compass here, you will be tricked." ”
Yexin had to shut up and sit quietly and wait, but she deliberately looked next to Tang Anshu, and from time to time glanced at Benzoin, who was already dissatisfied and had been suppressing her anger.
Tang Anshu suddenly opened his eyes: "I know, it's still a psychological trap." ”
Gu Feng hurriedly asked: "What psychological trap?" ”
Tang Anshu looked at the road he came: "We are going the other way, we should not go to the south, we should go to the north in the direction indicated on the compass." ”
Yexin wondered: "Isn't that equivalent to going back?" ”
"We're not in the depths of the labyrinth, so it's still too late." Tang Anshu looked at the compass in his hand, "The further south this feng shui labyrinth goes, the deeper it sinks. ”
Benzoin was skeptical: "How did you find out?" ”
Tang Anshu pointed to the stone: "It was the stone that told me, and I can guarantee that the stone was not left by the Earth Master Association and the Lingjian Mansion back then, but was left by someone later, at first glance, every stone is the same, not a road sign, but like an object that confuses the line of sight, but if there are no stones, I can't make a mark on the spot, and I can't know that there are thirteen stones here, let alone that we are going around in circles." ”
Everyone looked at each other, but they still didn't understand what Tang Anshu was saying.
"There is a mountain behind the village where Master lives in seclusion, and there is a stone on the mountain, and Master often says that the stone is like the Wangfu Stone he saw when he traveled, and every time he sees that stone, he will chant the Wangfu Stone by the Tang Dynasty poet Wang Jian." Tang Anshu said this, "There is a sentence in the poem that says, 'Turn into stone, don't look back', now that I think about it, it seems that the master hinted at something to me all the time. ”
Speaking of this, Tang Anshu suddenly had a headache, he held his head in pain, and countless broken pictures flashed in his mind, which was also mixed with Hu Shen's face, but the expression on Hu Shen's face was constantly changing, sometimes smiling, sometimes stern, and sometimes murderous.
Seeing this, Gu Feng and Ye Xin stepped forward to support Tang Anshu, Tang Anshu actually hit Gu Feng with a fist, knocked Gu Feng back, and pushed Ye Xin away with another palm, which seemed to be a completely different person.
Seeing this, Benzoin said, "Brother Gu, why is Anshu like this again?" ”
Yexin, who was pushed aside, hurriedly asked, "Did he do this before?" ”
"When we went to find Jinling Jane, he did the same." Gu Feng slowly circled around Tang Anshu, who was holding his head and moaning in pain, "Listen, go up and hold him down, no matter how he struggles, don't let go, he will naturally be fine later." ”
Ye Xin immediately waved his hand to signal his pirates to surround him, and after hearing Gu Feng's order, everyone pounced on them from all sides and firmly pressed Tang Anshu to the ground, even so, two of them were slightly injured.
But Tang Anshu struggled even more this time than last time, and at the same time, Yexin and Benzoin on the side clearly saw his hideous expression, which looked like Tang Anshu on weekdays.
"Big Brother Gu!" Benzoin was anxious, "What's wrong with Anshu?" ”
But at this time, Tang Anshu felt that his heart was extremely calm, he seemed to be unable to control his body, just like a bystander, watching Gu Feng and the other pirates desperately suppress him.
What the hell is wrong with me? Tang Anshu finally fell asleep with this question.
The helpless Gu Feng also raised his hand at the same time and stunned Tang Anshu with one palm.
At that moment, the sun was obscured by the clouds, and everyone tentatively let go, and after making sure that Tang Anshu was no longer crazy, they slowly got up from the shadow of the clouds.
●
The clouds were overwhelming, and the lightning bolts that were intertwined with each other could already be clearly seen in the rolling clouds.
Cai Qianqing stood on the city tower, looking at the dark clouds, and there was a bad premonition in his heart, but the strange thing was that he clearly knew that this premonition was not to tell him the outcome of the next battle, and it seemed to be warning about something else.
What is it exactly? Cai Qianqing's breathing became rapid, and he subconsciously reached into his pocket and took out the night pearl.
"What's wrong with you?" Qiu Gubo's voice rang out from behind.
Cai Qianqing trembled, the night pearl in his hand slipped down, and the moment he watched the night pearl fall to the ground, Qiu Gubo, who was quick-eyed, leaned over and grabbed the night pearl.
"Thank you." Cai Qianqing hurriedly stretched out her hand to return to the Night Pearl.
Qiu Gubo handed him the Night Pearl: "You sweated a lot. ”
"Really?" Cai Qianqing looked down at the Night Pearl, and after making sure that there was no damage, she raised her eyes to Qiu Gubo and thanked her, "Thank you." ”
"That...... Qiu Gubo looked at the night pearl in Cai Qianqing's hand, "This is the night pearl left to you by Xia Yulan?" ”
Cai Qianqing hurriedly put away the night pearl, as if he was afraid that Qiu Gubo would take another look, and at this time, in Qiu Gubo's eyes, he was like a child who had discovered his secret and was in a hurry to cover it up.
Cai Qianqing paused for a long time and asked, "Where is Chen Bozhong?" ”
Qiu Gubo looked out of the city: "Chating Village, ten miles outside the city, can be regarded as having already arrived in the city. ”
Cai Qianqing just nodded and said, "Okay, I know." ”
Qiu Gubo frowned: "Isn't the city still closed?" ”
Cai Qianqing shook her head, just shook her head.
Qiu Gubo asked, "There are many meanings to shaking your head, you can make it clear." ”
Cai Qianqing glanced at Qiu Gubo: "The city will be closed again tomorrow morning, and it will not move tonight for the time being." ”
Qiu Gubo worried: "What if they attack at night? ”
"The south of the city is mostly plains, and the city is full of swamps, even if Chen Bozhong does not have Hu Shen, he will definitely not choose to attack Yongcheng in the early morning, evening and night, and the south city is not their main point of attack." Cai Qianqing's uneasiness seemed to have eased a lot.
Qiu Gubo looked at the city: "Why? Is it because of the swamp? ”
"We are on the east and west on the right, and if we attack early in the morning, the sunrise is on the right side of the enemy, and in the evening on their left, no matter what, their line of sight will be disturbed by the light from the side, although we will also be disturbed, but we are the defenders, and we are condescending, plus natural environments such as swamps, taking advantage of it." Cai Qianqing looked into the distance again, "If I were Hu Shen, on the premise of not caring about the consequences, I would blow up the embankment of Qian Lake, even if I couldn't flood Yongcheng, I could block one of our retreats." ”
Qiu Gubo thought for a while: "According to what you say, Chen Bozhong will launch an attack outside Xicheng, and it will be in the evening?" ”
Cai Qianqing nodded and said: "Considering the environment, any battlefield commander will choose this way, because in the evening, we are facing the west, and the line of sight will be disturbed by the setting sun, and in good weather, we basically can't open our eyes, although it won't last long, but it is this minute and a half that is grabbed on the battlefield." ”
"West, the county river to the Fengjiang ......" Qiu Gubo muttered to himself, then raised his eyes to look at Cai Qianqing, "Waterway? ”
