Chapter 70: A Choice Between Life and Death
"Qimen Dunjia!" Wang Ling, who sat on the ground and pondered for a long time, has been looking at the tables in the center, these tables are centered on the statue in the center, that is to say, it is the key to the whole game, the most famous story about the use of ghosts hitting the wall in China is that Zhuge Liang trapped Lu Xun's tens of thousands of troops with a pile of stones, and its principle is to put it bluntly, it is a high-level trick to deceive people's eyes.
"You know this?" Li Xin knew that this thing belonged to a kind of metaphysics, and it was difficult for ordinary people to comprehend the mystery.
"I've just seen some fur," Wang Ling said: "The real Qimen Dunjia originally had four thousand and ninety-six games, and later after generations of reforms, a total of nine games of Yin Dun and nine games of Yang Dun, a total of 18 games. It has six yi, three odd, eight gates, nine stars and a special Qi Men Dunjia pattern, and can evolve a variety of different side games, I conclude that this thing foreigners should not be, this is our Chinese unique skill, I think we may have made a fatal mistake at the beginning, the appearance of fallen gold coins makes us simply think that what we encounter is just an unknown treasure left by the Assyrian dynasty.
For the same purpose as we do today, if the treasure is real, how many people are trying to find it? You must know that before the history of Western navigation was written, it was the Chinese who really crisscrossed the ocean, so it is entirely possible that they appeared on the road we walk today. ”
To say that there is no Chinese pass in Western history, but Qimen Dunjia is really not something that foreigners can figure out, one is that it does not belong to the popular culture, and the other is that unless this thing is a very talented person, most of them are apprentices in the sect, and it is difficult to get started without ten years or eight years.
"It reminds me of that person," Li Xin said, "Mao Ruxian! ”
Wang Ling also nodded and said, "You think the same as I think, Mao Ruxian, if this place was built by him, or has something to do with him, then it means that we are one step closer to Wang Zhi's treasure." ”
"Can you crack it?" Li Xin is more concerned about how they should get out, although as a pure believer in science, I believe that we are trapped only temporarily, and any man-made structure will not be separated from the existing science of understanding, because no matter what, these stones will not have wisdom and consciousness, and the real trapped can only be ourselves. ”
"I'll try," Wang Ling got up and stretched out his hand to Li Xin and said: "From now on, I want you to close your eyes, don't care about those steps and tables, you listen to my orders, follow me, if I really bump into it, I will remind you, you must listen to my slogan before you take a step." ”
"Okay, fourth brother, I believe in you!"
"Listen, no matter what kind of ghost hits the wall, after all, it can't be separated from Qimen Dunjia, as long as you enter from the door of death and find the door of life, you can naturally do it. There are exactly eight sets of tables here, representing eight doors, and the arrangement of these eight doors is not static, I guess they are constantly moving, and the principle may have something to do with the pool at the back. So when we came in smoothly and tried to go back the same way, we found that the road was gone, but in fact the road was still there, but our eyes could not see it and were confused. ”
Wang Ling took a step out of his left foot and tested it, and then said, "Left forward, one backward, three." ”
Then he pulled Li Xin with his sense of orientation, and after four steps, he thought about the next year and said: "Right in, three out, one back," "Stop, turn around, turn around on the spot." ”
At this time, it became Li Xin in front of Wang Ling in the back, Wang Ling put his arm on her shoulder and whispered: "Don't be afraid, I will be behind you, now I need you to guide me." ”
"Okay," Li Xin's voice trembled a little, but then she could feel the encouragement given to her behind her, so she took a deep breath and said, "Tell me, which way to go?" ”
"I have two answers." Wang Ling said: "One is left to advance and four to retreat to two, and one right to enter three and then turn sideways to enter three." Both of these will take six steps, but most likely they will be two very different results, and I can't be sure enough, so I want to leave this choice to you. “
"Me?" Li Xin was surprised: "How can I, I don't understand Qimen Dunjia!" “
"Often those who drown are water-savvy, and it's because I know a little bit of fur that I'm eager to try, and at this kind of critical crossing, if I were the one who went into battle, I would definitely make a trap, just waiting for you to fall in. It's a fantasy to think that with my ability, I want to fight those people who set up the formation, so I need you to help me make a choice, don't think about anything, I'll give you these two answers, feel it with your heart, you can go wherever you want. ”
"But......" Li Xin was so anxious that she wanted to jump on the spot, but she scolded the royal tomb in her heart, you actually picked on it at this critical time, and you are still not a gentleman in the end. But that guy was still instigating behind his back: "You don't have much time to think about it, I estimate that the position of the door of death will change again in a few minutes, and then everything will be wasted, you must be fast!" ”
"Okay, you forced me!" She gritted her teeth and said: "I've never liked to retreat when I do things, since I'm going to die, then straighten my chest and die, I choose the right side!" When she said this, her tone was indeed a little bit of a woman's style, but the moment she really wanted to open her legs, Li Xin felt that her legs and stomach didn't listen to her, and said with a little crying: "I really can't walk......
"Okay," Wang Ling stepped forward and suddenly picked her up from behind, and Li Xin struggled in his arms shyly: "Oh, what are you going to do......"
"Since you can't walk, then I'll walk with you, the road is your choice, I don't regret it!"
"One, two, three!" After three steps, Wang Ling stopped, then turned sideways forty-five degrees, took a deep breath and opened his legs again: "One, two, three!" After three steps, he opened his eyes decisively, the palace was still the palace, but the moment he turned around, he found that behind him was the small door that had just entered.
"Alright?" Li Xin never dared to open his eyes in his arms, she was afraid, this choice was made by her, and she didn't know if it would bring them disastrous consequences.
"Alright," Wang Ling said, "you can open your eyes." ”
When Li Xin opened her eyes, she found that the whole hall was pitch black, only the candlesticks on both sides of the door were lit, and the rest of the place was completely dark, neither the tables nor the exquisite statues in the middle could be seen. She looked at the man who was holding her in her arms, he was contemplating at this time, she liked to see Wang Ling thinking, she often said that serious men are the most tasteful.
The current posture of the two is a little ambiguous, it has been about a long time, Wang Ling finally noticed that his wrist was a little sore, and inadvertently Li Xin's body sank down, and the two of them realized that the atmosphere was really a little embarrassing.
"Put me down!" Li Xin broke free from his arms and tidied up his clothes, in order to alleviate the embarrassment, she deliberately asked, "Why are those candlesticks not lit up now?" ”
"Because we haven't lit them at all, we've been repeating these sticks," Wang Ling replied, "Actually, we've been going around this gate all the time, and this moment can be regarded as really entering this hall, I guess no one has been here for a long time." After that, he was about to go inside, and Li Xin shouted behind him: "Are you still going?" Isn't that enough? ”
Wang Ling turned around and smiled at her: "Don't worry, it's really safe now, the door has been opened by you." He paused and said, "If I had to choose, I would choose to go to the left." ”
"Why?" Li Xin thought to himself that this person should be deliberately currying favor with me, he was really just guessing.
"Because the left yang and the right yin, in ancient philosophy, the human body faces south, east is yang, and left is the place where the sun rises, symbolizing vitality. On the right is the west, which is yin, where the sun sets, and is a symbol of death. Wang Ling said: "This is the trap I am talking about, it can deceive me, but it can't deceive you, because you follow your own heart!" ”
