Chapter 69: The Hanging Soul Ladder
Ladder of Hanging Souls
The fat man grabbed my arm and said to me, "Old Hu, what if the rope breaks?" You have to be more careful, we still have a lot of money unspent, and now is not the time to be heroic, so if the situation is not right, run back quickly, don't do it. ”
I said to the fat man: "I told you about the same thing, you should be more careful if you stay on it, if the rope suddenly breaks in the middle of the way, you must not pull back, let the rope remain in its original state, otherwise you pull the rope away, I will not be able to touch it back." ”
I thought about it and was still a little uneasy, and then instructed the fat man: "Little fatty, you must not move if you stand here, I and the big gold tooth will go down from here, if you walk out of the stone steps raised by this son of a bitch, I will pull you out with a rope." ”
The fat man said, "No problem, you two can rest assured, if there is any danger, you can blow the whistle, and I can pull you both back with one arm." ”
As long as the rope connected between the three of them can exceed the distance of twenty-three steps, it should be able to crack the reciprocating ghost steps, thinking that the escape is imminent, the three of us can't hold back the excitement in our hearts, the fat man stays in place, and the big gold tooth and I pull the rope and go down.
Every time I descended a step, I looked back at the candle light where the fat man was, and when I went down to the sixth stone step, I asked the big gold tooth to stay, so that the big gold tooth could also stay in the fat man's sight, and how much could he take care of it, after all, the big gold tooth was usually pampered all day long, and he didn't go through many of these life-and-death tribulations, and if he couldn't see his companion, it was likely to cause him to be overly nervous and make some irrational moves.
It was the sixth step down from the fat man, and the big gold tooth lit the candle, checked the rope around his waist, and handed me the rest of the rope, leaving it at the sixth step to wait.
I said to the Great Golden Tooth, "I will go down all the way down the steps, and if I can get out of the twenty-three steps, I will pull the rope three times, and you will tell the fat man above, and after joining the fat man, I will go down the rope." ”
The big golden tooth said to me: "Although Master Hu can rest assured, although I am useless, I will not be careless in this life-threatening matter, I will stay here and wait for your good news." ”
Seeing that he was reliable, I nodded, and with a circle of rope in my hand, I continued down the stone steps, releasing a little rope with each step.
When I went down to the distance from the fat man's twelfth step, I looked at a large bundle of rope in my hand, although I knew that it was enough, I still subconsciously calculated the distance, twenty-three stone steps, twenty-three minus twelve, only a little half of the distance left, the rope was enough.
I silently counted the number of steps under my feet, as long as I exceeded the twenty-third steps, I could return to the Hades Temple, could I really return to the Hades Temple? At this point, it seems that I suddenly became uncertain again.
There was endless darkness in front of me, and the further down I went, the faster my heart beat because I was afraid that the greater the expectation and the greater the disappointment, but I had come to this point, and I had to continue to walk downward.
Twenty-one, twenty-two, twenty-three, the crescent-shaped mark appeared on the steps again, but the steps below were not endless, and it was a hell of a life, and I continued to walk hard, until there was no rope.
The rope in my hand was getting shorter and shorter, and I was about to go back, not wanting to go any further, when I suddenly saw a little light under the steps, and I walked down quickly, and the closer I got the closer I was, the more surprised I became, and there was a man standing below me, with a broad back facing away from me, and a candle was lit at my feet, and the light I saw above was the faint light of this candle.
That person is clearly the fat man who should be above me, he is holding his feet, constantly looking down, I can see clearly that it is indeed a fat man, and I am extremely discouraged for a moment, it seems that this method is not working, so I have to walk over and pat the fat man on the back: "Okay, don't look at it, I'm Hu Hansan back again." ”
The fat man was defenseless, even if he was bold, he was startled, and rolled down the stairs, and I hurriedly reached out to grab his arm, but he was so fat, and although I grabbed his sleeve, I did not hold him, and only tore off a sleeve.
Fortunately, he was also agile, and he only rolled down two stone steps, then stopped, looked up, and saw that I had come out from behind, and was also surprised, and asked, "Old Hu, why the hell did you come down from above?" Feeding a child is not called feeding a child, it is called scary, oh my mother, it is so scared to death, you are a word. ”
I said to the fat man, "Don't be surprised, you're not a big girl or a child, you have rough skin and thick flesh, you can be frightened if you are scared." ”
I sat on the steps, untied the rope around my waist and said to the fat man: "It's no fun, it seems that we are right in our judgment, this step is the chaotic area on the edge of the ghost mound, and the space theorem does not exist on this step, hurry up and pull Lao Jin up, let's make another plan." ”
The fat man pulled the rope, pulled the big gold tooth up, and told him the cause and effect, the big gold tooth was also depressed when he heard it, and I said to the fat man and the big gold tooth: "Although the saying goes, one is vigorous, and then it declines, and three is exhausted, but we have not yet reached the time of depression, while we are not hungry and unable to move, hurry up and think about it again to see if there is any folding, if in a few hours, hungry and unable to move, we really have to close our eyes and wait for death." ”
At the mention of the word hunger, the fat man was so hungry that he grabbed the neck of a big goose on the ground and said: "That's not enough, if there is really no curse, we still have two roast geese to eat, since you and Lao Jin said that you can't kill geese on this staircase, we can eat one first, and leave one to wait until we go to the temple of Hades to kill it." ”
I said to the fat man, "We don't have firewood, how can we eat here?" Can't you eat it raw? ”
The fat man wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and said, "What's wrong with eating it raw?" Didn't the ancient people just eat raw meat, and when they were really hungry, they didn't care whether they were raw or cooked. ”
I said: "The primitive people eat raw meat, Ru Mao drinks blood, you are still gritting your teeth and insisting on insisting, if we can't do without it, it is not too late for you to eat again, in fact, it is less than six or seven hours away from the meal you ate in the fishbone temple." ”
The big golden tooth on the side said to me with a sad face: "Master Hu, are we really going to finish the game this time?" I've thought about all the ways to go to heaven and earth, but I can't do without the more than 20 steps of this ghost hitting the wall, which is really bad luck. ”
I want to comfort the fat man and the big gold tooth a few words, but the words come to my mouth, but I can't say it, in fact, I am also upset now, and I really need others to say a few words of relief, the twenty-three steps of the donkey day, it is really fatal.
"Twenty-three, twenty-three." I reached out and touched the crescent crescent groove on the stone steps, as if I was struggling alone in the vast sea, and suddenly grabbed a floating plank.
The fat man wanted to discuss with me how to eat the two geese, but I was afraid that he would interrupt my train of thought, so I made a silent gesture to him without waiting for him to speak, and continued to rack my brains to search for the information in my memory.
After I figured it out, I slapped my thigh, startling the big gold tooth and the fat man, and I said to the two of them: "him***, let's let this ghost step be blinded, this is not a ghost hitting the wall at all, nor is it a chaotic area on the edge of the ghost mound." This is a fucking trap in the ancient tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty, a strange trap designed in an easy number. ”
At the beginning of my time in the army, I have been studying Zhou Yi in combination with the fragments of the family secretary. Therefore, the division of the east and the west is the theory of the two instruments, the division of the east and the west is the theory of the four elephants, and the theory of dividing the dry, kan, gen, zhen, xun, li, kun, and dui is the gossip is the principle of the creation of nature by the avenue of heaven and earth.
At that time, I just used these to kill the monotonous time in the barracks, because one of the words in the "Sixteen Characters Yin Yang Feng Shui Secret Technique" is the word "escape", the word "escape" in a volume, are all traps in the ancient tombs, China has admired easy numbers since ancient times, so the layout of the ancient tombs are inseparable from this way, I have studied in detail, and now in retrospect, this kind of twenty-three layers of stone steps, the scientific name should be called "Hanging Soul Ladder", this design principle has been lost for thousands of years, many mathematicians and scientists are obsessed with this way, Some people believe that this is a digital hypnosis method, deliberately leaving a mark or digital information to confuse the walker, while mathematicians believe that this is a complex structure of the digital model, in which there is only one staircase, in fact, it extends in all directions, the crescent-shaped mark is a trap, the mark is actually gradually deviating on the steps, plus these steps and stone walls, may be smeared with a kind of ancient secret recipe, absorbing light, it is more difficult to identify the direction, once you pay attention to this information, It will make people make mistakes in logical judgment, thinking that they are walking in a straight line, but in fact they will unconsciously embark on a fork in the road, go around in a big circle on the fork road, and finally completely lose their sense of direction, and the drop of the steps is very small, which may be designed to make people have the illusion of high and low drops.
Just like the eight arrays of the Three Kingdoms, a few stones can trap people in the sky without a way, into the ground without a door, at that time there were only eight characters left, it was already so complex and mysterious, not to mention the Western Zhou Dynasty, there were still sixteen characters in the world, that is even more unpredictable.
As early as the Western Zhou Dynasty, when the most popular era of hexagram deduction, the ruling class completely controlled and mastered these secrets, no less than the current top state secrets.
The Hanging Soul Ladder may not all be twenty-three steps, but the number of steps to go out can be deduced according to this number, I can't imagine that there is such a powerful trap in this ghost tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty, if the tomb robbers do not understand this way, and mistakenly enter this stone steps, they will be trapped to death, but this time it is scratching my itch, and today I will look at my old Hu's means.
