Chapter Seventy-Three: Behind the Wall

Grandpa Hongye placed the tripod in the order of clockwise, according to the order of the inscription stories between the walls of the tripod, obviously he thought that the placement of the tripod was arranged in accordance with the order of the story on the ancient tripod, he did not see the ghost eight treasures painted with dark lines inside the tripod, even if he saw it, he could not find out the correct order.

Compared with Xianyundu, Zhao Gong a few hundred years ago was much more powerful, after all, he was born in the Five Organs Temple, and he intersected with the knowledge of the Helan Bo people, so he could crack the mystery of these eight tripods, and then enter the world behind the dead man's wall, and get or see something.

And now, I am repeating the work of Zhao Gong back then.

When the last tripod was arranged in the order I said, we suddenly saw the eight stone pillars in the center of the tripod suddenly slowly and heavily sink into the middle of the earth, and with it, the rapid movement and twitching of the air flow in our vicinity.

Immediately afterwards, everyone heard a very distant sound and response from the underground of Bading.

The sound of the response was dry and loud, as if it were the opening of some kind of gate or mechanism, and then the sound of some kind of liquid or quicksand pouring into the water was heard again, which confirmed my thoughts even more.

At the same time, the ground beneath our feet began to tremble slightly, and the change in air pressure became more intense, and the sound of tinnitus caused by the huge change in air pressure quickly entered my mind.

The noise caused by the air pressure was very "harsh", and it caused my mind to ache because of the pressure.

I don't know how long that strange feeling lasted, I just know that I was very surprised in my heart at the time, I was surprised that the mechanism of hundreds of years ago could still move, and I was also surprised at what kind of secret was placed in this underground stone foundation with eight tripods, which could produce such great power.

It didn't take long for us to be slapped on the ground by the air pressure before the sound in my head gradually eased, and when my hearing and vision returned to normal again, I hurriedly raised my head and looked at the place where the wall of the dead man was inscribed.

That huge wall, actually leaking a hole?!

At this time, the blue-gray mist had all dispersed with the change of air pressure in the cave, and the door was wide open on the airtight walls that were originally inlaid with countless dead people, and suddenly filled with a lot of water-like unknown liquid.

Between the liquids, the hole that could accommodate two people in and out appeared in front of us, and the hole was unconventional, like the door of the last small temple.

In addition, the "façade" of the cave is also very terrifying, although it is decent, but all around it is wrapped in a "door frame" composed of bare-bottomed people, those people are the same as the human shells we saw before, the bones inside are gone, only the "empty shells" shaped by stalactites remain, and many extremely twisted bodies are filled with turbid black water, which is constantly overflowing from the mouth, nose and facial features.

We were all stunned when we looked at the door that suddenly appeared, and for a long time I couldn't even figure out why there was an extra door.

The sudden air pressure just now made me dizzy, so I regretted not seeing this door when it appeared, so I couldn't help but feel inexplicable when I saw this door at this time.

"How can there be an extra door?" I instinctively turned around and asked Hyun Momiji.

Momiji looked at the door, and after thinking for a moment, he suddenly said to me in a very sighing and admiring tone: "This is an ancient "underground water hydraulic" device, this door did not appear out of thin air, but rose from the ground. I know why there are so many dead bodies on this dead man's wall, and I know what it is for. ”

According to Momiji's analysis, the eight tripods are some kind of balance-like balancing mechanism, and the stone pillar in the middle of the eight tripods is actually a "machin" that blocks the underground waterway, and around the stone are the eight tripods used for balance.

The eight tripods and their stone pedestals have exquisite calculations and coordination, and the positions of these coordinates are arranged according to the eight trigrams, all of them are locked, and none of them can be triggered, and once the macalist stone is triggered, the underground sewers of the city of Black Lamb will occupy the wall space at the bottom of the dead man's wall, and under the action of buoyancy, the entire dead man's wall will float up.

"How is it possible to cross a wall under the pressure of water?" I was puzzled.

Momiji continued to say to me, "That's the purpose of the dead inlaid on the walls of the mechanism."

When we came, we have found that those who were "nailed" to the ancient walls by the Black Lambers are very peculiar, they are wrapped in stalactites in the corrosion of the years, and the inside is damp and rotten, but the outside leaves an empty stone shell, the role of those stone shells elsewhere Xian Hongye does not know, but on this wall full of dead people's bones, it does play the role of "hollow bubble bricks", he reduces the density of the cave, and allows the whole wall to rise when it encounters water.

With these dead men left with only empty shells, it was possible for the heavy wall to rise from the ground and reveal the empty passages that had been buried beneath the ground.

Best of all, the whole set of traps is made up of groundwater, dead people, and stones, and the stones do not rust, so they can still be used after hundreds of years of immersion in water.

Facing the empty passage of flowing water, Hyun Hongye and I were busy lamenting the wisdom of the ancients and the ingenuity of the mechanism, while the black wolf was surrounded by his men, unhurriedly wearing gas masks and filters.

When the black wolf and three of them were fully dressed, they ignored me, but passed over and walked straight to the inside of the circular passage.

Looking at their backs, I suddenly realized something, so I hurriedly stopped the four of them: "Black wolf, can you let me go too!" I think I have that right! ”

I confess that curiosity prevailed when I said this.

I was curious about what kind of world was behind the dead man's wall, and I was also curious about what kind of things Lao Nineteen was interested in, and even more curious about what Zhao Gong saw back then, and why he refused to control the power that could resist the "100,000 army", but took a kitchen knife out of this underground space.

And finally, and most importantly, I want to know why my old squad leader died defending the secret behind the dead man's wall, and what kind of existence there terrified my squad leader!

Therefore, I made this request.

The black wolf, with his steel mask and breathing apparatus, had apparently not expected me to say such a thing, so he paused and looked back at me mechanically.

I don't know what kind of expression he had under that mask, but I could feel that this guy was thinking seriously about my request.

In the next moment, the black wolf finally nodded, and his eyes turned to me again, and he turned to the mercenaries who were in charge of logistics, and ordered them: "Give Lao Tian a breathing apparatus, he is indeed qualified to witness what is next." ”
