Chapter 44: The Labyrinth
When I saw that everyone was still discussing something in front of the fork, I looked at the backs of everyone, and suddenly felt a strangeness, and when I looked closely, I found that there was an extra figure!
1 Cai Changsheng, 2 Wen Chengyu, 3 Huang Shaoze, 4 Monkey, 5 Lao Wang, 6 Li Da Shallot, 7 ...... This seventh dark shadow...... Who is it?
I saw that this black figure was emaciated, wearing a black robe with a long shirt, and the hat on the robe was worn on his head, and he was standing behind everyone and staring at the backs of everyone!
"Who are you?" I couldn't help but suddenly ask at the dark shadow.
When everyone heard this, they immediately noticed it, and they all turned back to me, and the black shadow seemed to be very calm, still standing there motionless.
As soon as everyone turned around, they immediately found the black shadow standing in front of them, and they were so shocked that they took two steps back at the same time!
"Holy! There are zongzi! Li Da Green shouted and was so frightened that he immediately retreated behind everyone!
When the monkey saw it, he hurriedly took off his flamethrower from his back, and was about to aim at the black shadow, but was stopped by Cai Changsheng loudly: "Don't panic! See it clearly! ”
"It's me, it's me!" I heard the dark shadow suddenly speak.
Everyone was shocked when they heard it, damn it, it was still a woman's voice!
After the black shadow finished speaking, he lifted the hoodie off his head, and then a long black and beautiful hair fell down his shoulder, and at the same time, the smell of perfume suddenly spread!
I was behind her at this time, and I could only see her back, but I already knew her identity from her voice...... Liu Yuan!
As soon as the monkey saw the first one, he shouted: "Oh, damn it, I'm not mistaken!" How is Comrade Liu Yuan'er! After the monkey finished speaking, he immediately stepped forward and circled around Liu Yuan, and stared at her up and down.
"I didn't admit my mistake, I didn't admit my mistake! That's me! Liu Yuan immediately responded as soon as he heard this, and after speaking, he looked at his brother Cai Changsheng.
"Nonsense! What are you doing here! Cai Changsheng didn't wait for Liu Yuan to greet everyone and scolded: "How did you come here, this is just nonsense!" ”
Liu Yuan immediately walked up to Cai Changsheng and said, "It's really boring for me to stay at Uncle Zhang's house alone, so when you set off, I kept ...... Follow you! Liu Yuan began to dare not look directly at her brother Cai Changsheng as she spoke, and her tone of voice became weaker and weaker, obviously she also knew that she would inevitably be scolded by his brother if she did this.
"You don't want to die? Don't take my words seriously......" Cai Changsheng's face changed even more after hearing this, and he yelled and scolded Liu Yuan, Liu Yuan could only listen with his head down on the side, and did not dare to have another word of defense.
The monkey saw that Liu Yuan was scolded by her brother and didn't dare to make a sound, so he immediately went up to help him break the siege: "Oh, Lao Cai, don't scold anymore, anyway, you can still be scolded by you?" Besides, she dares to enter the ancient tomb, this is a heroine among women, you should be proud to have such a sister! ”
Seeing this, the others immediately spoke for Liu Yuan. I only heard Huang Shaoze say: "I said Lao Cai, you scolded and scolded, don't chase this matter, there are so many of us here, I'm afraid I can't protect your sister?" Besides, this Liu Yuan'er sister is smart by nature, and her brain is much stronger than a few of us, maybe she can help a little! ”
Cai Changsheng had no intention of scolding Liu Yuan, he was just out of concern, and now that everyone came to speak for Liu Yuan, he couldn't bear to scold anymore, so he changed his harsh tone just now, and asked gently: "How about it, what happened to you not being born on the road, tell everyone about the things along the way!" ”
Liu Yuan immediately burst into laughter when he heard this, knowing that he had finally passed his brother's level, so he no longer had any fears. Then he told us all the things she had been following us all the way.
Soon after we set off from Uncle Zhang's house, Liu Yuan set off to follow us, following us over the mountains and mountains until we reached the top of the cliff where we descended.
When Liu Yuan reached the top of the mountain, we had already gone down the cliff into the stone chamber, and it was raining heavily outside, so Liu Yuan found a place to hide from the rain for a while, and it was not until the rain stopped that she began to look for the entrance to the tomb. Since our rope had been cut by the time she reached the top, she didn't know that we were descending from the cliff.
She also found the robbery cave on the slope of the top of the mountain, so she entered the stone chamber from the robbery hole, she also saw the bodies of Zhou Yonggui and Xiao Wu in the stone chamber, and deduced that we must have entered the Yongdao where Xiao Wu's body was, and then went deep into the Yongdao alone, and as a result, at this fork in the road, we met us who went around in a big circle and turned back.
After listening to Liu Yuan's narration, everyone probably knew what was going on for a while, but this Liu Yuan's courage really made me admire a little, she was a girl in her twenties, and she dared to come here from such a far away place alone, if it were me, she might not be able to do it.
Next, we briefly told Liu Yuan about some of the situations we encountered here, and when we told her that we went around and around these three forks and turned back again, she seemed to be immediately interested, and said that the qiē we experienced sounded like a brain teaser.
However, when my mind returned to the problem I was encountering, I suddenly had the same feeling as Liu Yuan, this qiē really looked like a brain teaser, we were following the marks left by our predecessors, but we were confused and came back.
Liu Yuan saw that we could not understand the mystery inside, so she herself went to carefully observe the three-way junction here, and after a while she suddenly asked, "Is every three-way junction you encounter similar to this one?" ”
When the monkey heard, "Huh? After a while, he continued: "Aren't there three directions for these three forks, and of course they are all about the same!" ”
Liu Yuan shook his head when he heard this, and then said: "I mean whether the angle between any two Yongdao in the three forks is the same size!" For example, the three-way intersection in front of us is 120 degrees between any two roads! ”
"That's right! It's all 120 degrees, and it's all about dividing a circle into thirds! Cai Changsheng immediately replied when he heard this, he seemed to understand something.
Liu Yuan continued: "Then let me ask you another question, every time you enter a three-way crossing, do you end up entering the Yongdao on the left-hand side?" ”
When everyone heard this, they all began to talk about each other.
"Yes, they all entered the corridor on the left-hand side, I remember this!" When Li Da Green Ion heard this, he suddenly said: "Because I am left-handed, I have a deeper sense of the position!" ”
"That's right!" Liu Yuan nodded when he heard this: "I already know the layout of the terrain here, this is a labyrinth composed of countless regular hexagons!" Each of these three forks is the intersection of three adjacent regular hexagons! If you want to go further, the shortest route is to take the right side of the road at the 4th fork! ”
Listening to Liu Yuan say this, I suddenly remembered the walkie-talkie in the fourth three-way opening, is this the real meaning of the walkie-talkie in the fork we didn't choose?
