Chapter 14: The Self-Healing City
The Gate of the Sun?
What Old Man Liu said was his imagination? It still existed in a certain book, but the name sounded too Western-style to the ears, and I had to suspect that it was just wishful thinking on his part.
With such a majestic and huge city gate standing in front of him, Rao is experienced inverted bucket people like Weizi and Old Man Liu are a little unsure of how to open it. The two of them, one old and one young, went back and forth to measure and grope for the hidden mechanisms or secret doors of the city gates, but unfortunately they still tried in vain and turned back.
Weizi said with emotion: "The things of the inverted bucket are here, and I don't feel that they are used at all." There is no grounding here, the method of finding the dragon point is completely an ornament, this city gate does not even have a little kit kat mechanism, it is impossible to use manpower to push it open, right? ”
The old man Liu, who was snorting and fanning, walked back and forth anxiously with beads of sweat on his face, and he agreed with Weizi's statement: "This may not have been built according to the design of the tomb, and it is very likely that this palace was indeed a popular city." ”
Long Wu turned his eyes and looked around and said, "Then the only way to do this is to blow up this city gate?" ”
Dong Bing, who had always been unhappy with Long Wu, said angrily: "Fried? You are really rich, such a golden gate will be blown up, not to mention donating to the country, increasing the amount of gold reserves, maybe you will also be given a pennant, it reads: Tomb robbery contribution award. ”
If you mock like this, Long Wu doesn't care, but it doesn't mean that others don't care.
Lei Hong spoke like Hong Zhong: "I heard that you are a two-five boy? I didn't expect you to speak so uncomfortable, you shouldn't have persuaded Long Wu just now, just broke the iron rope and fell to your death. ”
Dong Bing didn't like others to call him like this, but he also knew that he was definitely not the opponent of this strong man when he fought alone, so he pouted and said: "Then thank you very much, thank you for your eight generations of ancestors." ”
"A few big men are arguing like women here, and they don't look like gossip." Dina crossed her hands and looked at them disdainfully.
Dong Bing and Lei Hong glared at each other awkwardly, and turned their faces to the side.
"Blow it up, you can't open it with normal methods anyway, so use Long Wu's method to blow it up."
I looked at the huge gate and continued, "If you can, see if you can make a hole in the wall and blow a hole in the wall." ”
Long Wu nodded, and took a few people over to measure the city gate first, and then went to the root of the city wall to take a look, and said with a disappointed expression: "The explosion can be fried, the city wall is too thick, I am afraid that the amount of explosives used will be very large, and the stone fragments that will be blown up at that time may hurt people, but the city gate is much less, after all, the softness of gold is much higher than that of stone, and it is much easier." ”
Dong Bing gave him a blank look, "You still care about human life?" ”
"Erwuzai, do you want to have one?"
Lei Hong moved his wrist and said viciously: "If you speak so unceremoniously again, believe it or not, break your neck?" ”
Seeing this, Dabao shouted: "I'm so scared, Meng Ge, he wants to kill us." ”
Seeing that Meng Jian frowned, and faintly had the posture of putting down the sword box and was about to make a move, Lei Hong took a step back and said, "Just kidding, you don't count in Neiha." ”
Cut, Dong Bing rolled his eyes and said, "The body is bold and small." ”
Lei Hong blushed and retreated to Long Wu's side, making sure that he would no longer quarrel with Dong Bing, and he would not be able to take advantage of it at all. Unlike the commotion over there, Weizi, I and Long Wu discussed it together, and decided to do it like the simplest city gate. No matter how valuable it is, you have to take it out, the key is that this city gate is too much of a hindrance.
After the discussion, two of us, and a few people from Long Wu's side, used tools to dig a hole the size of a bowl in the gap in the middle of the city gate, and took out an arm's length of depth inward, stuffed a bag of explosives into it, and after pulling the lead, everyone retreated to a distance of more than ten meters.
Long Wu immediately lit the fuse, watching the fire burst out, but the sound was not that violent explosion, only muffled in the hole, and when he got closer, the hole with the big mouth of the bowl became the size of a water tank, but unfortunately it still didn't blow up.
"Looks like we need to do it again."
Smelling the choking smoke of gunpowder, I checked the situation and said, "Maybe it will be twice, according to the height of this gate, it is at least more than ten meters thick, and now it has only exploded into four or five meters." ”
Dabao and Dong Bing quietly hid behind, seeing that their backpacks were bulging, they were hiding behind to pick up gold fragments, in Dong Bing's words, they are all here, so they have to bring something with them.
Just as we were about to 'fire the cannon' for the second or even the third time, Weizi suddenly fell to the ground in shock, pointed to the city gate in surprise and said, "Damn, what the hell is it, there is such an evil gate here!" ”
Everyone looked at the reassuring people he pointed to, and they all closed their mouths in surprise. I saw that the hole that had been the size of a water tank and four or five meters deep had disappeared without a trace at this moment, and it had become golden and smooth again. It was exactly the same as before the bombing, and there was no trace of using explosives.
I had the audacity to reach out and touch the hole where it had been opened, and it felt like it was firm and solid, not like a fake. Winter Ice and Dabao were also surprised to open their backpacks and find that the gold fragments contained in them were gone.
"What did you just see?" Long Wu asked Weizi in a cold sweat.
Weizi breathed from the ground, shook his head and said, "In just a few seconds, I just turned my head, and when I turned back again, the city gate had already returned to its original state." ”
Dabao timidly hid beside the Dingfeng Monkey and said, "There won't really be any immortals here, right?" The city gate that will be repaired automatically, let alone seen, I haven't even heard of it. ”
At this point, Dinah made a proposal: "What about trying the city walls?" If the walls have not changed, then only that gate is strange. ”
"And what if the walls could be restored? How so? Weizi asked her rhetorically.
I groaned and said, "I have to try, Dinah's idea can be tried, after all, we don't have any other good way right now." ”
After that, he made a small hole in the city wall according to the previous method, planted explosives and detonated it. In the distance, we saw a large gap, and when we got closer, the miracle reappeared, and there was no sign of explosion on the wall, if it weren't for the black marks on the ground that had been smoked by explosives, we would all think we were in a dream.
"What the hell is this?"
Long Wu was angry and lost his temper in his own team. But no matter how much you make a fuss, it won't help, just a self-repairing gate and wall on the periphery stumped everyone, so isn't it even more difficult inside this cloud palace?
Looking at the golden Sun Gate in front of me, I couldn't help but feel a little deflated.
At this moment, Old Man Liu suddenly spoke: "We must find a way to pass through here now, there is no way back, you see!" ”
I saw that the clouds behind us began to rise thickly, rolling up in the air, slowly obscuring our vision, and the suspension bridge that we had seen was no longer visible.
Now it's really impossible to move forward and retreat.
Just when everyone had nothing to do, the clouds suddenly began to shine in mid-air, and everyone looked up, only to see countless golden things flickering there in the clouds, and only to see the sun rising outside, the sun shone down, and those things like stars began to glow with a scorching light and reflect on the golden city gate.
The golden city gate bloomed with a dazzling golden light at this moment, and all the people present had to squint their eyes and block the strong light with their hands, under the golden light, the sun relief in the middle of the city gate seemed to rotate, making a clicking sound, and everyone only heard a very heavy sound of moving heavy objects.
The door of the sun slowly opened under this golden light.
