Chapter 20: Three-dimensional diagram of the Yi hexagram
The few grooves that the master is holding in his hand seem to be in order, I take a closer look, there are a total of six grooves, and the middle four grooves obviously have a gap in the middle, protruding to block the connection between the grooves, that is, eight, and the upper and lower two are directly connected together. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"What is this pattern? Why is it still so three-dimensional? I shone my flashlight at the cracks and was surprised.
"What? Pattern? The second uncle asked puzzled.
When he heard that we were discussing those gaps, he looked up at his hands, and then he used his hand to stand directly on the top of the stone slab, which turned out to be the top of the stone slab not far from the top of these grooves.
Immediately, the young master squatted down again and observed those recesses for a moment, and said coldly: "It's not a pattern, this is a three-dimensional diagram of Yi hexagram." ”
"Three-dimensional diagram of Yi hexagram?" I wondered, "Is it related to the sixty-four hexagrams again?" ”
The second uncle heard what the master said, and carefully observed, seemed to know something, and hurriedly said: "It is indeed a hexagram." ”
"Is there any clue or method here that can get us out of this labyrinth?" Then I asked again.
The master only cared about observing the mystery of the three-dimensional diagram of the Yi hexagram on this, and didn't have time to pay attention to us, so the second uncle thought for a moment and explained: "This Yi hexagram is the twenty-seventh hexagram in the sixty-four hexagrams, the top one is the long groove and the four short seams in the middle are the Gen hexagrams, and the four short grooves below plus the long grooves below are the shock hexagrams, so it is the Yi hexagram figure." ”
"But how is this hexagram three-dimensional?" I sighed, saying that it is already difficult to make these huge stone slabs erect, and besides, these stone slabs can still move to form a labyrinth building, and with the addition of the three-dimensional drawings on the stone slabs, I dare not imagine how this ancient man did it, and this kind of engineering may not be able to come up with such a clever way to make such a moving maze even if modern scientists and engineers cooperate with each other.
"This pattern is carved into three dimensions, it should be some kind of mechanism, this hexagram is composed of Gen hexagram and earthquake hexagram, Gen is the mountain, the earthquake is thunder, the mountain stops at the top, the thunder moves down, the thunder can shake the mountain, not to mention just a stone slab, I don't know who came up with the method, can design such a magical mechanism." The second uncle's face was full of shock, as if he had never seen the scene in front of him, so he was so surprised.
"So how do you solve this labyrinth? I can't stay in this place anymore. Abu said dissatisfied.
"We can't stay any longer, we have to break the mystery of this three-dimensional diagram to find a way." I said calmly. Then I kept remembering the divination signs of the Yi hexagram in the sixty-four hexagrams, and combined with some tomb solving methods in the ancestral "Four Books of Yin and Yang".
But when you think about it, when the things in your head are crossed, it will be a mess, and it will be impossible to come up with anything.
Just when I was rubbing my head and feeling a little anxious, the young master seemed to think of something on it, and said to us: "There is, upside down." ”
"Uphill?" I don't know how to figure it out again, I remember that it was just a hexagram in the 64th hexagram, how could it be related to this method of cracking.
The explanation is to use the appearance of inversion and confusion to confuse people's hearts, to avoid the enemy who is eyeing the enemy, to prevent the strong enemy from attacking themselves, so as to avoid the disaster, this method of using the appearance to avoid the evil and seek good fortune is the perfect plan for the tomb owner to show wisdom with hidden strength.
When I thought of this, it suddenly dawned on me, and I said to the second uncle and Abu, "I understand. "And at this time, what I think may be exactly what the master thinks in his heart.
"How?" The second uncle didn't even understand at this time, and looked at me with a confused face and asked.
I felt that I had found a way to crack it, and I couldn't wait to explain: "In the art of war, it is often said that it is impossible to show that it is impossible to deceive the enemy with appearances, and this kind of maze we only need to subvert the principle and solve it with the method of going against the trend. ”
After all, he must know more about these things than me, but he may not be able to figure it out all at once, but as soon as I say this, he will be able to understand.
The second uncle said with a look of surprise: "It means that we might as well use the contrarian operation, there are stone slabs all around, we must not go forward senselessly, since the three-dimensional diagram of the Yi hexagram is positive, we only need to turn it over to prevent the movement and change of the maze." ”
"I think it should be." I replied, I don't know how I could have thought of such a thing, only that my head suddenly spun so fast after my father disappeared from this tomb.
"What are you talking about? Why didn't I understand a word? Abu looked puzzled, as if he was completely at a loss.
I replied helplessly: "Who told you that you don't know about these sixty-four hexagrams, how to say a book like "I Ching" has to read it again, even if you can't use it in life, you can learn some knowledge, and I found that many ancient tombs in the Central Plains use these things, which I saw from books when I was idle in the antique store. ”
But Abu was still like that, he glanced at me, and said indifferently, "Tut, Ji Ming, what's wrong?" Still swollen? ”
I thought to myself, "I'm going to be able to solve this maze." "But I can't think about it, so I didn't say it, lest I don't think about it when I say it, that's the day the dog is not responsible.
I shifted my gaze to the master, without saying a word, just watching the movements of the master's hands, Abu saw that I ignored him, and raised his head to look at the master.
I saw the master put his feet on the edge of the top of the stone slab, and instantly fell down with his head down and his whole body down, and then I was directly shocked into a cold sweat, I thought that the master was going to fall, but I almost didn't close my eyes.
The tip of the master's toe hooked directly on the edge of the slate, although the process was a little thrilling, but it did not affect its next operation at all, the master's hand happened to be at the three-dimensional diagram of the hexagram, and then the master inserted his fingers into the two long grooves.
When the three-dimensional diagram of the Yi hexagram was inserted into the fingers of the master, it made a gurgling sound, and I saw that as soon as the two hands of the master were forced, the three-dimensional diagram rotated slowly on the stone slab, and it was only stopped from the Gen position to the earthquake position, and the positions of Gen and Zhen were completely reversed, but this was only a matter of a few seconds.
When the three-dimensional diagram of the hexagram was reversed, the other stone slabs that were still moving around slowly stopped, and the stone slab wall where the master was suddenly shook, and the master quickly shrank up at this time, and stood on the top of the stone slab with a somersault, and then slid down the edge of the side of the stone slab.
Suddenly, the stone slabs around us began to shake when the stone slabs in front of us shook, and we even couldn't stand on our feet, and Abu shouted, "Damn, this tomb is not going to collapse, is it?" ”
The master calmly replied: "No! ”
When we looked at the slabs again, we saw that the slabs began to sink into the ground, and the top of the slabs was getting closer and closer to us, and after a while they were directly retracted to the ground, keeping parallel to the ground.
Just as all the stone slabs were retracted to the ground, a flashlight shot in front of us not far away.
