Chapter 10: Traces of Seventeen Years Ago
"Shut up for me! You've made a noise to me, I'm going to think about it! I said. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Oops! It's shameless to say this kind of big talk! ”
I didn't pay any attention to Fat Bao, and I walked to the place where the mechanism had touched. This was the end of the road, and I listened to the sounds of the outside for fear that the monster was still outside. I didn't hear any movement, and then I tapped lightly on the wall, which made a heavy sound. The wall must be so thick that even if the monster was still outside, I guess I wouldn't be able to hear it.
"How do you find the switch for the mechanism?" Fei Bao asked.
"It's not a problem!" I said, "In this cave that no one haunts all year round, if there is a place that is touched regularly, there will definitely be traces!" "I shone my flashlight around the wall and saw a mark on the right side of the wall that was more than a meter above the ground, which was clearly rubbed. This is probably due to the traces left by the mountain ghosts who often activate the mechanism, "The switch is here!" ”
"The switch has been found, why don't you leave quickly?" Fei Bao asked.
"I don't know if the mountain ghost has gone far!" I said, "If it doesn't go far, it might come back when it hears us open the mechanism." Or maybe it's near the trap and might pounce on us when it sees us coming out! But it's very contradictory, because we don't get out of here quickly, and if another mountain ghost comes in, we will be in more trouble! ”
Fat Bao took a deep breath, "Then what do you want?" Just say no! ”
"Wait another ten minutes!"
"Okay!"
Ten minutes later, I motioned for Fat Treasure to take out the fighting saber, and I went to open the mechanism. I fumbled around with the switch for a while, but I couldn't turn it on. The place that was rubbed a lot was one with the wall, nothing special, I couldn't press it hard nearby, and I couldn't turn left and right with my hand.
"Your boss's!" Fei Bao said dissatisfiedly, "Have you found the right place?" What else is it not difficult to find a switch! ”
"I guess I'm right!" I say.
"What if your reasoning is wrong?"
"Then you can only be wrong!"
"Na!" Fat Bao raised his index finger at me.
"I'll take a look!" Hotaru walked over, and she carefully observed the place where it had been rubbed.
Hotaru-chan's carefulness has brought us life. She found the place where she had been rubbed was special. If you look closely, there are actually two places that have been rubbed badly. On the two palm-sized places, the top and bottom were rubbed very badly, but the middle was not rubbed much. I just took a casual look at it, so I didn't notice the details. The top and bottom are rubbed separately, so you can tell that the mechanism is opened in at least two steps.
Hotaru rubbed the part underneath and pressed hard, and the part that was rubbed on top suddenly bulged. I am very impressed by the construction techniques of the ancients, which are simply miraculous. I saw that there were no gaps in the wall just now, and the walls looked like a whole, but it would take a lot of skill to be able to jut out a stone and make a mechanism that couldn't even be seen through the cracks.
I pressed the protruding stone, but it didn't respond. I spun it a few times, but it didn't happen.
"It doesn't make sense! Watching TV, those mechanisms are either pressed down or rotated. Is there any other way? I said.
"Your boss, you're going to say watch TV! It's all a lie on TV! Fei Bao said.
"Who said that! Don't slander people! I said.
I saw Hotaru grabbing a fist-sized stone and pulling it back. The stone door opened.
Fat Bao and I both admired this little sister very much. Even I couldn't handle it, but she was able to do it.
"Look at you! Not even a little girl! Fat Bao said, "Hotaru is amazing!" ”
"No more!" Hotaru smiled and said, "Actually, I was thinking, since the normal opening method is not good, why not try the unusual opening method?" Then as soon as I pulled, the door opened! ”
I give Hotaru a thumbs up!
"This story is a good lesson for those who think they are geniuses not to follow the rules and follow the rules! Be eye-catching next time! Fat Bao is still teaching me, "Look, look, look at other people's little fireflies, how smart!" ”
I think Fei Bao has been waiting for this time for a long time. Because we used to be in the threesome bad things squad, I was always the military advisor, and my reasoning was rarely wrong. And I often object to Fat Bao's conjecture that doesn't think through the brain, like a pig. So Fat Bao "held a grudge" against me, and as soon as he caught me wrong, he stepped on me endlessly.
"Yes, yes! You're so annoying! ”
"Since entering the underground ruins, I feel like I've been holding you back!" Hotaru said, "I'm so happy to be able to help you now!" ”
"No more! We are all for Amin! Fei Bao said.
We walked out of the cave, and the stone door closed automatically at the back. The scene ahead is a big surprise. In front of us is a cavern that has been processed and seems to have no edge, and in the cave stands one by one crudely carved stone pillars, and a layer of mist floats around, greatly obstructing our view.
We actually went back to Tai Chi Sen Luo.
"His boss's! We've come full circle and come back! Fei Bao said.
I raised my torch and looked around, and suddenly I noticed something carved into the wall not far to the left. I walked over and blew away the dust from it and found a line of crooked text.
"How can there be words engraved here?" Fei Bao came over and said, "These words are so weird, what do they mean?" ”
"Whoever dares to step in, I will take your flesh!" I say.
"How do you know that's what it means!" Fei Bao said.
"It's written in the diary!"
"Don't think that if you can't understand these words, you can talk nonsense. Don't sit in the right seat, okay! The place where the archaeological team came in was different from ours, and maybe not only the place where the archaeological team came in was engraved with these strange words! Didn't the diary say that there were also some strange words engraved in the place where the dragon vein in Guangzhou was found? Perhaps these texts are common here. ”
"Brother Jinke doesn't seem to be wrong!" Hotaru said, "Look at the ground! She pointed to a pile of black objects not far away, "The diary records that the archaeological team used to rest and cook in this neighborhood!" The pile of black stuff is supposed to be the traces left by the archaeological team when they used fuel to make a fire. ”
"Hotaru-chan seems to have a point!" Fat Bao said with a grin.
I was frowning and staring in the direction of the black stuff.
"What's that look on your face!" "The diary says there's a curse here, don't you believe it?" ”
I leaned into the dim light and noticed that something was wrong with the black stuff. I walked slowly with a torch. I crouched down to examine it closely. Only then did I realize that the large pile of black stuff turned out to be a rusty burning furnace that was about to turn into pieces, and it looked like it had been around for a certain period of time. Presumably because the fuel ran out, the archaeological team left it behind in order to reduce the burden. But what surprised me was that there was also a small pile of black stuff next to it. Upon closer inspection, it was a solid fuel that had not burned out. It looks very new, and it should have been left recently.
I told Fat Treasure and Hotaru about my speculation. They were amazed.
