It would be inaccurate to say that it was a city, because the houses in the city were all made of sun-dried adobe bricks, and the houses were built in a haphazard manner. When I walked in, I realized that this dungeon has no main road, not even lanes, which is willful in today's buzzwords. How capricious has it been? It is not uncommon for anyone's gate to be blocked, and the main entrance of the yard is available in all four directions. The objects in these houses are also too different from modern ones, and many of them are unknown and unknown objects. Every household is cleaned up very neatly, and there is still more or less water in the water tank in every house, which is very clear. All the phenomena seemed to tell the seven of them: all of them had gone out to work in the farms and would come back later.

Walking and watching like this, the group has unconsciously gone deep into the hinterland of the city. It wasn't until Feng Daring was hungry and said that he wanted to go up and eat something that he found that they couldn't get out.

How can you say that you can't get out? It turned out that a few of them walked around the chaotic alley for a long time, no matter how they walked, they finally returned to the place just now, and they looked like they had seen everywhere, and everything looked like the way they came. Did you encounter a ghost hitting the wall? Feng Qingguo muttered in his heart and motioned for everyone not to go first, and climbed to a roof to look around, due to the limited brightness of the flashlight and the close irradiation distance, he could only see a few nearby houses. I don't know if I don't look at it, but I know at a glance that these seemingly willful houses are actually deliberately produced, and these houses make use of the layout of the Nine Palaces Bagua Array of Qimen Dunjia Technique, which seems to be chaotic, but in fact it is not. The Nine Palaces Bagua Array began to rise in the Zhou Dynasty, and developed into a layout such as marching formations in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. After confirming the terrain, Feng Qingguo came down and said to everyone: "This underground earthen house seems to be built without rules, but it is actually the use of the layout of the Nine Palaces Bagua Array in the Qimen Dunjia technique, and this layout was used to arrange troops in ancient times, so it can be seen that the person who built these houses is also a military stranger, and he is particularly proficient in the Qimen Dunjia technique." The traditional layout of the Nine Palaces Bagua Array is square, the whole array is born, injured, rested, Du, Jing, dead, surprised, and open eight doors, the structure is three lines, three buckets and nine songs, the first bucket is set up in the labyrinth, the second bucket is set up in two, and the third bucket is set in three, so it goes all the way to the nine gates, and the labyrinth layout, less than nine doors, more than eighty-one doors, the layout loops back and forth, echoing back and forth, and we can't go out if we take a wrong step. ”

Zhang Qing asked a little nervously: "That means we can't get out?" What the hell did you invent? Did anyone crack it at the time? ”

"I don't know who came out of it, but Zhuge Liang is sure that this is going well, I also heard my grandfather say that this formation is from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, eight doors and eight directions, and the Shengmen belongs to the earth, which corresponds to the Gen Palace and the northeast in the hexagram, so we can try to go to the northeast!"

Zhang Qing said with a little envy: "When did you kid know so much?" It's also a shame that you are usually the most active when you oppose the four olds. ”

"I also listened to what my grandfather said, he used to have some books like this, and he read them blindly when he had nothing to do, which has nothing to do with the four olds, not superstition, this is particularly scientific."

"Is this still scientific? When we're stupid? As soon as the bombardment was fired, everything was gone. ”

"Don't say it's useless, you can try shelling it now? Qimen Dunjia is not only such a superficial layout, but if you continue to say it, you are superficial, the only thing we have to do now is to hope that we will be lucky, and we can go out of the life gate, otherwise we will die here! ”

After speaking, Feng Qingguo took out a compass from his satchel, and then said to everyone in a matter-of-fact manner: "Don't fall behind, follow me." ”

After saying that, he followed the instructions of the compass, avoided the houses one by one, and finally walked to the birth gate. But the Shengmen is the edge of the dungeon, backed by a thick stone wall, and is a small temple that enshrines the statues of evil spirits that cannot be named, and the Shengmen becomes the Gate of Death.

"No, that's it, that's it, it shouldn't be. Why is the birth gate blocked? If the door of life is blocked, what will happen to the door of death? Life, death, life, death, life and death reversed, life and death reversed? The door of life, the door of death? Death's door? Death's door! Right! Walk through the door of death! Go southwest and try again! ”

Another educated youth named Sun Aihua said: "Since we have seen the stone wall roots, why don't we try to watch the wall roots go to the edge, anyway, the exit must be on the very edge." ”

Zhang Qing also echoed and said: "That's right, let's try it from the outside, maybe we will go out." ”

There is no more convincing way, and everyone has no choice but to do so. But the seemingly simple and effective solution does not work there, and the facts tell everyone one truth: the fullness of ideals and the cruelty of reality. After a few steps, several houses appeared in front of them, blocking the path along the wall, and if they wanted to bypass these houses, they had to continue to walk in the middle, and as they walked, they became farther and farther away from the edge, and at last, the wall disappeared from everyone's sight.

As soon as he left, everyone began to spin in circles again, Feng Qingguo said firmly: "Don't go around blindly, bold, let me ask you, did that blind man say anything?" ”

Feng Dadao said: "It seems that there is no more, that is, you will not be confused if you close your eyes." ”

Feng Qingguo said to himself: "If you close your eyes, you won't be confused, that is, don't believe in your eyes, since you don't believe in your eyes, you will walk by feeling when you are dark?" This is also unreasonable, unscientific, close your eyes, don't believe in your eyes, that is, this layout misleads people's eyes, since it is misleading eyes, simply don't look at it, go! You turn off all the flashlights, don't look at the houses on both sides, follow me one by one, don't lose it, I probably know how to get out. ”

Feng Qingguo played a flashlight in one hand and a compass in the other, and according to the guidance of the pointer, he walked straight to the southwest. After walking like this for about ten minutes, Feng Qingguo stopped and asked the people behind him to turn on the flashlight, and at this time, there were only more than two meters left on the original six or seven meter-high stone top above his head, and in front of him was the small courtyard gate when they just came in! They're out!

"Why did it come out? What's going on? "The intellectuals are confused.

"The blind man who boldly mentioned it didn't say nonsense, but there was a problem with the way he expressed it, and he said that you can come out with your eyes closed, which means that the houses here are almost the same in shape, and we are easily misled by our eyes, and there is also paralysis of thoughts. Suppose we just started into the middle of the maze, is a circle, the first row of houses that surround us is a row and a bucket, there are eight exit options, no matter how to go, we can easily get to the second bucket, but the two buckets come out of two arrangements, the layout becomes two times eight, with sixteen directions to choose from, even if we hit out of the two buckets, to the three buckets, then divide the circle into three columns, the layout is three times eight, there are twenty-four directions to choose, and with the enlargement of the perimeter, The layout is not decent, and the mistakes in the three buckets and the two buckets echo each other, and it is easy for us to live in circles here; I assumed wrong before, I used habitual thinking, thinking that this gossip array is square, in fact this is rectangular, I have been staring at the compass when I came out of the birth gate, when I went around in circles, I found that the distance between the north and south was obviously much longer, so I decided that this layout is the first three doors and the last three doors, one door on the left and right, and the three doors before and after are one door to press one door, one door to buckle one door, that is to say, all can't go, why can I be sure that this door presses one door, one door buckles one door, is when we go around in circles, We can't follow the edge at all, we can't get close to the edge, we can only go further and further in, so I conclude, but this explanation may be wrong, and I don't understand it if it's too profound; No matter how we go, we will eventually enter a dead end or return, the seemingly chaotic houses here are actually carefully calculated, their location and orientation are misleading, the real exit should be the left and right two doors, that is, the northeast and southwest two directions, four mouths, we go to the door of life, that is, the northeast entrance is blocked, and around the root of the wall is due east, but also cut off by the house, the door should be the exit, if the door is closed, it is life and death reversed, of course we can only choose the door of death, That is, to the southwest. The Nine Palaces Bagua Array is only used in this foundation, we should be grateful to the designer, the three lines are one of the inner lines of the design is more confusing, and the periphery is relatively more regular, if it is a troop formation, at that time, this is definitely a trick to lure the enemy into the depths, unconsciously into the pocket, Zhuge Liang has laid out the stone henge, but it is much more complicated than this, those soldiers are alive and want to move, and this house is dead and will not move. ”
