Chapter 373: Thousand Machine Towers (3)
My uncle used his profound knowledge to answer all my questions for me, and it was great to have my uncle by his side.
"Uncle, what is the purpose of those lamps and bells?" I asked again.
"The lamp should be the effect of pressure, when the mechanism in different places is triggered, the pressure of the floor changes, which also causes the air input to the lamp to increase or decrease. The more the space enters, the lights come on. The less air gets in, the lights will dim. ”
"And those bells are supposed to be connected by very strong wires to the information mechanism here, and whenever someone opens a certain door, the bell here will ring. People here can tell where the enemy is invading by looking at the location recorded on the bells. I'm right, Mushuang. ”
My uncle looked at the public and lost the matchless, and the public lost and nodded as well. But I'm not happy to see him, isn't it because my uncle has penetrated all his mechanisms?
"But these things are only easy to say, and it is too difficult to do them, especially when you have to install so many delicate mechanisms into this huge thousand machine building."
My uncle hurriedly said a few kind words, so that the face of the public defeat Wushuang recovered a lot. If it weren't for my uncle's timely reversal of the conversation, he would have offended the public again.
"That's natural, this Thousand Machine Building took my ancestors hundreds of years to complete, and the mechanisms inside can be said to be the culmination of our Gongyi family's organ skills. Although it cannot be compared with your so-called modern technology, it does not mean that you can complete such a project under the same conditions. ”
Gongyi Wushuang spoke with a kind of pride, maybe it would be more appropriate to call a kind of arrogance. But he's right, even if I know the principle of the mechanism here, but if you ask me to place any mechanism, I guess I won't be able to complete it.
"Okay, let's stop making trouble, Wushuang, according to the change of the news agency, you can play the sound near the agency for everyone." After Master Xu Fu gave the order, we people didn't dare to talk anymore, so let's get down to business first.
Observing the changes in the bells and lanterns, the Gongyu Musou adjusted the mechanism on the listening casket. Soon, we heard a little sound from the horn-like receiver. The sound was strange, like the low roar of some animal, like the sound of some animal snoring while sleeping.
"Uncle, what kind of sound is this?" I asked curiously, but my uncle motioned for me to shut up.
I looked at everyone, and they didn't dare to say a word, or even make any moves, for fear that the voice coming from here would not be able to hear clearly. I don't dare to speak or act anymore, I feel like the air is completely frozen.
"What kind of sound is this, it seems to be some kind of animal." The atmosphere was at a stalemate for a few minutes, and in the end, Tang Xunzimo broke the deadlock.
"It's like a wolf's voice, don't you hear it?" Su Lingxue also expressed her opinion.
"It's a werewolf, these guys must have infiltrated it." It seems that everyone agrees with this statement now.
"They don't seem to be moving now, they are stopping somewhere, what do they want to do." My uncle asked again.
"This is supposed to be the place where we raise rare beasts, these guys aren't planning to release the contents inside. Then they'll die, no, if the worst happens, I'll have to completely close off any diversion from the treasury and flood it all. ”
Gong Yi Wushuang was a little frightened when he spoke, what kind of strange beast was imprisoned here, and now it made him so panicked.
"Brother Gongyi, there are some strange beasts in there, I think you are going to release water to flood the treasure house, the things there must be terrible." I asked curiously.
Before the public loser Wushuang would be disturbed, Grandpa Xu Fu began to explain to us.
"Most of the strange beasts in it are very docile animals, but there are a few evil beasts in it that are extremely ferocious, and if they are released, they will definitely harm the world. The most vicious of them all belonged to the two monsters we caught on our way west. One is a blood-sampire monster with three eyes that looks like a lion, calling the blood ancestor. ”
"This blood ancestor is bloodthirsty, specializing in bloodthirsty living, and they are asexual breeding animals. As long as there is enough human blood, they can reproduce indefinitely, and when there is no longer human blood to eat, they will eat each other. For so many years, we have only been using some chicken and duck blood to satisfy the blood ancestor we caught. So that he would not starve to death and would not be able to reproduce any more. ”
"If this Blood Ancestor is released from inside, we must kill it before it can reproduce, or the consequences will be unimaginable."
We all heard Grandpa Xu Fu's concerns, but I finally understood why Gong Doushuang wanted to release water to flood the treasure house. After all, there are such dangerous animals in this treasure house, and in order to stop them, they can only destroy the treasure house.
"Not only that, but there is another dangerous element in this treasure trove. Its name is the Flame Beast, and it looks like a large buffalo covered in fire, but don't think it's as docile and honest as a buffalo. ”
"Although this flame beast does not reproduce asexually like the Blood Ancestor, and its number is extremely rare. But they are the things that bring disaster into people, and the fire in them is the most merciless of demons. Flame beasts are the kind of people who are most afraid of being disturbed by outsiders, and if they are disturbed, the fire on their bodies will burn very strongly, turning everything that comes into contact with them around them to ashes. ”
I can't imagine that this flame beast is such a terrible thing, if I encounter this kind of thing, I guess I won't be able to get out of it, I really don't know how Grandpa Xu Fu caught these things in the first place.
"By the way, Wushuang, now the room where all the beasts are held is sealed with iron plates, although it can't completely stop the enemy's purpose, but at least it can buy us some time. Then open all the fire partitions inside the treasure house, and we must prevent the fire beast from burning the entire treasure house. Then notify the surrounding defenders, stand back and defend, protect your life first, and the rest doesn't matter. ”
I can't imagine that Grandpa Xu Fu still cherishes the lives of soldiers so much, which is really admirable.
"Grandpa Xu Fu, if you can love the people and soldiers of Qincheng like this, this is ten thousand times stronger than Wei Ran, with you leading us, we will definitely win the final victory." I praised it on the side, but Grandpa Xu Fu sighed.
"Alas, I care so much about soldiers and civilians now, isn't it because I didn't take human life seriously when I was young. At that time, I just thought that they were just pawns in my hand, and Wei Ran thought the same way. But then I found out that everyone is a living being, and I really don't have the right to take the lives of others. ”
I didn't expect Grandpa Xu Fu to have such a past, it seems that there are too many things I can't think of in this world.
Suddenly, the sound of metal hitting suddenly came from the receiver that listened to the sound, no, it must be that the enemy wanted to release the monster.
