Chapter 811: Soul Hanging Ladder
"It's a shame that you're still a feng shui master, and you haven't even heard of the Soul Ladder. Li Sichen shook his head.
Jiang Jun's expression was very embarrassed, and he wanted to defend himself, but he didn't know what to say.
Fortunately, Li Sichen didn't hit him too much.
After complaining, he explained: "The Soul Ladder is a mechanism that has existed for thousands of years. The earliest instance of its discovery was in an ancient tomb where the owner of the tomb used as a trap to trap tomb robbers. And as soon as the Soul Ladder appeared, it immediately caused a sensation. Architects were fascinated by its peculiar construction, and mathematicians were fascinated by the numbers it contained. Even psychologists are studying it. Because of its various layouts, they are all designed to play a role, that is, hypnotizing and paralyzing the people who break into it. ”
"Such a powerful ......" Jiang Jun was really shocked.
"Of course it's amazing, it is said that the person who first invented the Soul Ladder was Mozi. Later, this soul ladder was learned by the public losers and improved. How can something that has been created by the painstaking efforts of the two major engineering schools and the organ school in ancient times not be powerful?"
"According to the records in the history books, the Soul Ladder was originally used in the defense of the city, and it played a very good effect. Once the besieging army gets caught in it, it will lose its way and go around inside without finding a way out, only to be killed by the defenders lurking in the shadows. In the classic masterpiece "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Zhuge Liang's gossip array that trapped Lu Xun was actually derived from the story of the Hanging Soul Ladder. ”
"The principle of the Soul Ladder is quite complicated, and it is impossible to explain it clearly in a few words. All you need to know is that it's like a kind of labyrinth, with clever changes in the width, length, and height of the stairs, as well as the surrounding environment, that people think they're constantly moving forward and up. But in reality, they are in the same place, constantly going up and down, going back and forth! In the end, people are either exhausted, starved to death, and thirsty, or driven crazy by a road that never ends!"
"Then what do you have to do to be able to get out of the Soul Ladder?" Jiang Jun hurriedly asked, he didn't want to die so aggrieved.
"Follow me. Li Sichen didn't tell the way to crack the Soul Ladder, firstly, because it was too complicated to explain a few words clearly, and secondly, because he didn't want to and didn't have the obligation to impart knowledge to Jiang Jun.
Jiang Jun also figured this out, was a little embarrassed, closed his mouth and stopped talking, and followed behind Li Sichen. However, his eyes widened and he wanted to record everything Li Sichen had done.
However, he soon discovered that even if he saw every step Li Sichen did, it was impossible for him to succeed in stealing the teacher.
Because what Li Sichen did was very simple, that is, he held a feng shui compass, measured the various data of the ladder with a seven-star ruler, and then calculated it quickly in his heart.
Every time he went up the ladder, he would have to do the math. The result of the calculation is obviously related to the position of the step. Because Jiang Jun found that every step of Li Sichen was in different positions on the ladder. Sometimes it's almost against the wall on the left, and sometimes it's almost on the right handrail.
Although he was very puzzled in his heart, Jiang Jun didn't dare to say more and didn't dare to question it, so he honestly followed behind Li Sichen and saw how he went.
Don't look at Li Sichen's every step is complicated, but in fact, it doesn't take much time. All of this is because Li Sichen's measurement movements are fast enough and his mental arithmetic ability is strong enough.
Two or three minutes later, Li Sichen and Jiang Jun came to the corner of the corridor again.
However, Li Sichen did not turn right and go up, but after some calculations, turned left and walked towards the corner where the two walls intersected.
"Be careful, it's going to crash!" Jiang Jun saw that Li Sichen was just looking down at the feng shui compass, and didn't seem to notice the wall that was close at all, so he hurriedly reminded him.
"Don't worry, you can't hit it. Li Sichen replied without raising his head, and at the same time, his pace did not slow down, and he continued to walk forward.
"Can't bump into it? You think you have a wall-piercing technique? This cow is too big and outrageous!" Jiang Jun rolled his eyes and complained in his heart.
He stopped talking, and was ready to wait for Li Sichen to hit the wall before snickering.
Li Sichen had already walked to the corner of the wall at this time, and he only needed to take one more step forward to hit the wall. His feet did not stop or slow down, and he continued to move forward.
"Hit the wall!" Jiang Jun thought gloating in his heart.
However, the expected scene of the man hitting the wall did not happen.
What Jiang Jun saw was that Li Sichen's body passed through the wall and disappeared all at once.
"What...... What's the situation?"
Jiang Jun's mouth opened wide in shock.
"Is he really good at piercing walls? Otherwise, how could he have passed through walls all at once? But isn't the technique of piercing walls made up by novelists? How can it be real?"
At this moment, Jiang Jun felt that his head was completely messed up.
And Li Sichen's voice floated out from behind the corner: "What are you still doing in a daze? Hurry up!"
Jiang Jun also wanted to get out of the Soul Ladder, but he glanced at the corner in front of him, and could only say with a bitter face: "But...... I don't know how to pierce walls. ”
"Wall piercing? haha...... It's not a wall-piercing technique. Li Sichen smiled, and then said: "You follow the way I walked just now, walk to the corner, and you will understand everything." ”
Jiang Jun was very confused, but he still followed Li Sichen's instructions, learned the way he had just taken, and approached the corner step by step.
Half a meter from the corner of the wall, nothing has changed.
Ten centimeters from the corner of the wall, there is still no change.
Jiang Jun's heart was horizontal, he gritted his teeth and continued to walk forward, at most it was just hitting the wall, what was the big deal.
However, just when his mind was about to touch the corner, the situation in front of him suddenly changed.
There was originally no road in the corner, but there was a gap!
Enough to accommodate a person through the gap!
Jiang Jun stepped over and saw Li Sichen smiling at him.
"What's going on?" Jiang Jun turned around and found that there was still a corner behind him, and he couldn't see the existence of a gap at all. It wasn't until he brought his head closer again to the point that he was about to hit the corner of the wall that he saw the gap again.
Li Sichen explained: "What is magical, it is just a kind of blinding method that comes with the Soul Suspension Ladder, through the surrounding environment, layout and structure, the gap is perfectly hidden in the blind spot of people's vision. Unless you get very close, you can't find it at all. Like many of the usual methods in magic, it is a principle. ”
Jiang Jun nodded, as if he understood.
Looking around, he realized that he had walked into a stairwell again. After looking at it, it was determined that this stairwell was only the second floor of the ghost building.
"We've only reached the second floor, so we've been spinning around in the Soul Ladder before?" Jiang Jun opened his mouth in surprise.
