Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Palace of Memory
I glanced at him and asked, "What about your own?" ”
The fat bear looked very anxious, reached out and snatched the flashlight from my hand, and hurriedly replied: "I lost it when I escaped just now." ”
The faint flashlight hit the huge wall sculpture again, the light point was extremely small, the wall sculpture was huge, and it could not illuminate the whole picture.
But even if there was only a little bit of light, the fat bear still looked very seriously, and he narrowed his eyes, and his mouth kept muttering something in small pieces.
When I saw him in such a serious way, I was a little uncomfortable, so I patted him and asked, "What did you find?" ”
The fat bear turned his head and made a "shhh" gesture, then closed his eyes, and pinched his fingers like a fortune teller, so he left me to dry out in extreme depression.
What is this fat man doing?
I pounded the fat bear's waist with my elbow, but unfortunately it happened to touch his wound, and he screamed in pain, and immediately yelled: "What the are you doing!" ”
I was in a bad mood, so I said loudly, "You haven't asked you what you're doing!" What the hell are you talking about all day long? ”
The fat bear pointed to his fat head angrily, and said angrily: "Fat master, I am opening the memory palace in my brain!" Who knew that as soon as the skill was halfway through, it was suddenly lost by your mountain cannon! ”
I was stunned for a moment, memory palace? I think I've heard of this thing somewhere, let me think about it...... It seems to be ...... Wipe! Could it be the memory palace used in the rotten country drama "Sherlock" when he was involved in the Fu detective case? Rather than believe that this dead fat man will do this, I would rather believe that the old sow will go up the tree!
So he mocked mercilessly: "I admit that your head is indeed bigger than mine, but it is estimated that it is full of fat, how can it accommodate any memory palace?" I think you're paranoid! ”
The fat bear was very unconvinced: "You know a fart!" Fat man, I once saw this wall sculpture in ancient books, and now I am recalling how this formation was broken! ”
"Breaking the formation? What kind of broken formation, isn't this just an ordinary wall carving, where is there any formation? "I don't understand what Fat Bear means, but I feel that it's really embarrassing for an uneducated person like him to read ancient books.
"Did your Uncle Dao not teach you anything other than to teach you to play cards? I can't even see this basic formation! ”
I was told by the fat bear as if he was useless, and I really couldn't get over my face, so I asked: "Then tell me, what kind of formation is here?" ”
The fat bear disdainfully "cut", pointed to the wall carving and said: "Look at this terrain, the mountain nest has been hollowed out, all around the cliffs, in the middle is a bottomless abyss, the ancient stone carving craftsman can not complete such a big thing unless he can fly." ”
"People have their own way of chiseling, but the pyramids of ancient Egypt are still difficult to build, and they are not built in the end? You don't say anything about it at all. I replied.
Fat Bear combed his big back exaggeratedly with both hands and said, "Fat master, let me tell you, this is really telling, showing that this is simply a formation given by the tomb builder!" You don't want to think about who would chisel a useless statue in this place for no reason, and the statue should be in the tomb. ”
There was some truth in Fat Bear's words, such a huge project was carved in a natural mountain far away from the tomb, which seemed indeed unusual back then, so he continued to listen to Fat Bear's next words.
Fat Bear continued: "The people who build the mausoleum know that no matter how elaborate the mechanism is, the tomb robbers will do everything they can to crack it. So they simply isolated the main burial chamber completely, using the abyss as a barrier so that the tomb robbers could not attack. In other words, the wall carving is actually the entrance to the main burial chamber! ”
This giant wall sculpture in front of you is the entrance to the main tomb? I was a little surprised when I heard this, but when I think about it, it is indeed very possible that the entrance to the main tomb will be built here, and those tomb robbers will not be able to overcome it even if they have all the ability.
"After going around for a long time, what does it have to do with the formation you said?" I then asked.
"Hey, are you really stupid or fake stupid? Fat man, I've talked about this step, you still don't understand! This formation is to trap the trespassers on the other side of the abyss forever, and then use the monsters flying up from the abyss to slowly kill them. And the so-called breaking formation, to put it bluntly, is to find a way to go to the other end! ”
I wasn't sure if what Fat Bear said was reliable, so I asked him what the name of this formation was, and if it was, then according to the name, I could find the relevant information in the "Secret Book of Heavenly Craft" that my grandfather gave me.
But the fat bear scratched his head and thought about it for a long time and didn't remember what this formation was called, and finally spread his hands: "What's the name to remember?" Anyway, it's all made up by people, and I'll make one up for it now, fat man, and it's called "can't get by", which means that no matter what, you can't get by. ”
I'm sure now that this fat bear wasn't reliable at all.
Seeing that I still didn't believe me, the fat bear didn't say much to me, closed his eyes again, and pretended to enter his so-called memory palace to find a way to crack it.
After about three minutes, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked at me, looking a little complicated.
Did he really figure out a way to get to the other side?
Who knew that before I could open my mouth to ask, the fat bear said with a lewd face: "Four-eyed boy, do you still have anything to eat?" I can't think of anything when I'm hungry. ”
A capital confusion suddenly appeared in my mind, so I had to reluctantly give him the only four slices of bread left in my backpack.
As soon as the fat bear got the food, he didn't even say thank you, and devoured it. His eating appearance is extremely ugly, and he feels that calling him a bear is an insult to the bear, like a pig eating with its mouth.
While eating, he asked me, "By the way, Four-Eyed Boy, where did you get that gun?" ”
I looked at Browning in my hand, and said: "When I woke up, I found that you were all gone, so I had to walk around the cave alone, and then I saw some small caves, in which there were many supplies and guns and ammunition for Japanese soldiers, and I got this gun from there. ”
The fat bear nodded and said, "Your kid is very lucky, you can still have such an unexpected harvest when you wander around." ”
I then talked to Fat Bear about the contents of the Japanese officer's diary, and emphasized the "flying monsters" mentioned above.
"Could that flying monster be the group of bats we just encountered?" The fat bear asked.
I shook my head to show that I didn't know, and then told him that I had met some dead Japanese soldiers on the stone path when I came, and that they had all died in a horrific state, most of them in an instant, and that they had met some extremely powerful opponents.
The fat bear said "um", didn't say anything, and ate to himself again. I wasn't in the mood to look any further, so I turned my attention to the direction of the wall carving, trying to use the flashlight to take care of the details and see if there were any new discoveries.
But just then, I suddenly saw something flying in front of me with a beam of light from a flashlight, accompanied by an unusually strange cry.
I was stunned, could it be the bat that attacked us just now?
