Chapter Thirty-Nine: Vine Illusion
Yes, this is not a flower, but more like another plant, at this time the second son father also came, he looked at it and said: "Where did this ancient vine come from, this is a rare thing." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"Ancient vine? Is it rattan? "I'm a little curious.
So the second son father told us some knowledge of this vine.
Over the years, the second son's father has been collecting firewood, and he has had a lot of contact with vines, mainly to use them as ropes. Sometimes, after collecting firewood in the field, because the rope is not enough, they will pick it and tie it to the firewood. But this rattan and rattan are not the same, the most common in the countryside is the snake head winding, because this kind of rattan looks like a snake head, so it is called so, but this thing is also annoying, because it has a layer of barbs on the surface, if you are not careful, you will be scratched by it, and the wound will be painful and itchy, very painful, but rural people don't care, as long as it can be used, it can still be picked and used. But for the firewood people, it is useless except for the rope, one can not hit the furniture, the other can not be used as firewood, because it is too thin, and the water is too large, can not be burned as firewood, so some rural children also use them as toys to make a prank or something.
As soon as the second son father said it, I knew that the rattan he was talking about was the thinner rattan such as the snake's head and the winding one. The second son father said that the ancient rattan is what I only knew and saw in the furniture market many years later, especially in modern society, all kinds of pollution is too serious, so people put their eyes on the rattan, all kinds of furniture made of rattan are also various, especially the chair made of rattan, it is the best in winter and cool in summer, but at that time the second son father said that it was an ancient vine, my first feeling was that this flower was very old.
Grandma Tai looked at it carefully, and at this time, a trace of green smoke suddenly came out of the thing, and then everyone smelled a strange fragrance, which was different from ordinary incense, it was the kind of incense that made people a little dizzy.
As soon as the people smelled the incense, everyone began to dance as if they had lost their will, and looked at the rattan as if it were swaying from side to side.
Grandma and Grandma are still experienced, they have already blocked their noses with wet handkerchiefs, and immediately pulled everyone out of the fifth partition, it took a long time for everyone to come out of that state of coma, and what is even stranger is that when everyone gradually woke up, Xiao Wu and his team also came out of the fifth partition.
Everyone was startled at first, and then they stepped forward and asked what was going on? Xiao Wu and they sat on the ground retching for a while, and after they had some strength, Xiao Wu told everyone what had just happened.
It turned out that Xiao Wu didn't lead the team to play the front station, they were really dedicated, and lit candles at each corner of the third layer, and then began to explore whether there was a way out from each partition, and when they arrived at the fifth partition, they saw this ancient vine, and they were inexperienced, Xiao Wu stepped forward and touched it with his hand, this time it didn't matter, as the flower pot was touched, the entire wall of the fifth partition was reversed, and when they woke up, they found that they were already in another space, like a secret room. When they were inside, they could see the situation outside, and even everyone was fascinated by the vine incense, they could see it, and they shouted inside, but it was like two worlds, no matter how they shouted, the people outside couldn't hear it.
But as the aroma was consumed little by little, the wall of the secret room felt a little loose, and Xiao Wu used his mana to push the wall with everyone, and they pushed it away alive, so there was the previous scene.
Grandma Tai said: "That's right, there is only an entrance to the entire third floor, but there is no exit, which means that the exit is in another place, and the secret room that Xiao Wu said is likely to hide the real exit." ”
Everyone was a little stunned when they heard that Grandma Tai meant to enter the fifth partition again, after all, they had been delirious by the incense just now, and they had to go crazy if they went in again.
But if you don't go in and can't find the exit, it's better to give it a try than to be stuck here, and now that everyone has made up their minds, all that's left is action.
Grandma Tai instructed to let the four teams become one team, all enter the fifth partition, and act at the opportunity.
Everyone entered the fifth partition again, and this time they all had experience, and they all took out handkerchiefs to block their mouths and noses. Not to mention that it really works, this time when the vine released the incense again, no one was tricked, and after a while, the incense of the ancient vine was almost released, so under the leadership of Grandma Tai, everyone began to walk towards the vase of the vine.
Still let Xiao Wu take the lead, so Xiao Wu carefully turned the vase, only to hear the sound of "boom", the wall was like a revolving door to bring the whole team to another space.
When everyone came in, they found that it was a completely enclosed space, there was nothing around, and it was so quiet that everyone was so nervous that they could even hear the sound of breathing.
There are walls all around, and there is no door, neither entering nor retreating, at this time some people complained, this time it is good, let alone save people, I don't know who to save it.
This voice immediately stopped the village chief, "Great, don't shout, don't be foolish, no, don't say slack words, there will always be a way." ”
If it wasn't the village chief, as soon as these words came out, someone said: "Yes, I will definitely be able to go out, the village chief is wise!" It seems that no matter what the moment is, there will be no shortage of sycophants, and some people are whispering happily on the side.
Whether it is sycophant or not, the encouragement of the village chief is worth recommending, a team's homework is inseparable from unity and self-confidence, if you don't believe that you can complete it, the goal will definitely not be achieved.
While the people were talking, the messenger Qu Dong pointed to the wall and said, "Look there, there's a picture there!" ”
Everyone looked up at the wall, and in the center of one of the walls, there was really a picture drawn, and Grandma Tai stepped forward to look carefully, but she couldn't see any doorway.
"Isn't this a game of backgammon?" I whispered.
But in this secret room, the smaller the voice, the more real it sounded, so everyone's eyes turned to me.
All of a sudden, I became a public figure again, I pointed to the painting and said, the two people in this painting are playing chess, and what kind of chess is playing, it is backgammon, because this chessboard is fifteen times fifteen, and the Go board is much larger, but this game of chess is so strange, a person is holding a black piece and preparing to throw, but look at this chess game, there are two choices for the place where the pieces are landed, one is extreme defense, the other is extreme offense, I don't know whether the person in this painting wants to defend or attack.
I made a long speech and made everyone stupid, because many people still can't play backgammon, so it's understandable that they can't understand it. But at present, the most important thing is how to get out, and what does this exit have to do with this painting?
"Let us choose the path, Ryoko is right, is it offensive or defensive, this chess is a wrong step, a wrong step, it depends on how it falls, maybe the answer is in the place where it falls!" Xiao Wu said as if he understood.
"Liangzi, do you see where the chess pieces on this painting are placed to be called defense, and where to put them are called offense?" Grandma asked me in the back.
I've been playing backgammon with my aunt since I was a child, not to mention being a master, but I still have my own ideas for simple chess games. This backgammon, it's really like life, five chess pieces are connected into a line to win, but how can this process be so simple, just like life, how is it a lifetime, but at every choice of intersection, what direction to choose indicates that the future life will be very different.
There are still principles of life in backgammon, such as leaving three and not rushing, that is, there must be room for speaking and doing things, and leaving a way back may lay the groundwork for victory.
And now this game is obviously in the late stage, and every drop may become the key to victory or defeat. In my opinion, if the black in the painting falls on the fifth node of the third line, it will press the white son step by step until it achieves a decisive victory, and if it falls on the third node of the fifth line, it will choose defense, which may make people feel less confident, but it is also a safe and prudent choice.
"You can only advance and not retreat!" Grandma said categorically.
Many years later, I still remember my grandmother's resounding words, "You can only advance and not retreat!" "This is the yearning for the goal, but also the ambition to fight against the water, everything is the same, you persevere, no matter how long the road is, you will always have a moment to reach the destination, and if you retreat, even if you are only one step away from the destination, but in the end because of retreat, and nothing.
"Just pick the fifth node in the third row!" Grandma gave the order again.
Xiao Wu is also a Lisuo person, and immediately used his hand to point at the fifth node of the third line.
As Xiao Wu's hand fell to the node of the painting, he only heard a "squeak", as if the wooden door in the past was out of oil, and the piercing sound of opening the door attracted everyone's attention to a corner.
As soon as Xiao Wu's hand fell, the two walls in that corner suddenly opened from the corner, and a secret passage that could allow a person to pass through was formed in front of him, and in the depths of the secret passage, there was even candlelight flickering.
Still led by Xiao Wu, my grandmother and I were in the second group, the village chief and the second son were in the third group, and the grandmother and the three messengers led the team to protect at the end, and they came out of the secret passage.
Because the secret room was too dark, a little candlelight could pierce people's eyes for a while, and when everyone came to their senses, they found that they were already standing on the fourth floor of the "Nine Heavens Xuanming" tower.
It seems that the structure of each floor of this tower is different, it seems that everyone's thinking is going to be changed, and they can't follow the old routine, who would have thought that the door to the fourth floor would come up from the secret room.
According to the experience of the first three layers, it is still up to the candle lit first and see the situation clearly.
Soon Xiao Wu led the first group to light candles on each windowsill on the fourth floor, and suddenly the fourth floor lit up, but this light was lit up, but when people looked closely, they were surprised to find that there was a row of such people on the other side.
