Chapter 20: Five Stars Guiding the Way

The so-called "mirror" theory was put forward by Lao Zhao, and the bell must be tied to the bell, and the answer must be sought from Lao Zhao.

"In my opinion, we are mirrors in ourselves."

Lao Zhao's answer surprised us, why do we say that we ourselves are mirrors, isn't it that we reflect ourselves. But I think that since Lao Zhao said this, he must have his own reasoning, so I will listen to him for the time being, and then make a calculation.

"There is also a mirror, which is the tomb itself, not only the walls, but also the whole, which is a mirror." Lao Zhao continued.

"So, we're all in the mirror now?" I threw my question to Lao Zhao, who did not answer immediately, but walked to the wall, touched the wall and asked us: "Look at this wall, is it straight or curved?" ”

"The burial chamber itself is round, so these walls are also circumferential, but the arc is a little small, and it is straight from a short distance, not to mention that the light here is too dark to judge."

"That's right, this wall should indeed be circumferential, but even if it is circular, if we are advancing at different speeds, there will be no problem of walking in the same direction as we said before, at most one person will catch up with the other."

Lao Zhao's statement was reasonable, and the three of us nodded in agreement.

"The only thing that can happen is that the walls, although curved, are not O-shaped, but U-shaped."

"If it's not a circumferential shape, but an open U-shape, we should be able to reach the end, right?"

"Don't forget what we said earlier, this tomb is a mechanism in itself."

Lao Zhao's words finally clicked through me. A single U-shape does have an end, but two U-shapes are opposite each other, that is, there is no end. In addition, the tomb itself is the characteristic of activity, we just go from one U-shape to another, and then to another, so that it is possible that we will walk the road we have passed again, and it will form the reflection that Lao Zhao said, and we will go on like this, but we will never be able to get out of this tomb.

The reason why we came in and found that the tomb was not large and had a regular circle, but then it changed completely, is that when we entered, we opened the stone door and activated the mechanism of the tomb at the same time. And it is not a simple matter to promote such a large mechanism, and the tomb was built according to the water, which borrowed the power of nature to promote the mechanism at the right time. This approach ensures that the organ will not lose its effectiveness in the long term, and that as long as there is water in the river, there will always be force.

Now that we know the reason, if we want to go out, we must find the law of the movement of this tomb, and this must be the key to the problem. Combined with the examples of clocks, minutes, hour and second hands, which Lao Zhao said before, there must be an outer wall of the tomb.

"Do you want to break through the wall? Let's take a look at what it's like outside the walls. "I said what I thought.

Lao Zhao shook his head and said: "It can't be said that it's not a solution, it's just not suitable for us now, we don't have the tools at hand, and the sapper shovel can't play a role here at all." Even if we try to break through a wall, maybe there are a few walls waiting for us behind, we don't know how many walls, even if we hit the mountain, we don't feel anything, and we will only die of exhaustion in the end. ”

"Then we're going to sit here and die?" I felt very powerless for a moment.

"Don't be so discouraged, Zero, it's like we can't see the sun tomorrow." It's a rare occurrence for the pit to come and comfort me.

Listening to the words of the pit, my heart suddenly lit up, the sun, that's right, if it's daylight, we don't have to be afraid of not being able to get out. I went up and punched the pit: "It's yours!" But I don't know what's going on.

"I don't know much about the organs, I believe that once the law is found, Brother Zhao can crack it." I said to Lao Zhao.

Lao Zhao nodded, indicating that there was no problem, but said: "The problem is that we can't find a pattern at all now, if we can still see it in the agency, it will be difficult to be inside, not to mention that it is dark all around." ”

"I don't know the true face of Lushan, only because I am in this mountain. This is true, and I think that since we can't see it in the tomb, let's go out and see it. ”

The three of them looked at me, and they basically wanted to ask me if I was stupid, and I still had to hold back here if I could go out.

I pulled Song Jin over and whispered a few words in his ear, and Song Jin nodded after understanding what I meant. He took out several glow sticks from his backpack, tied them to the arrows, pulled up the recurve bow, and with a whoosh, the arrows were steadily shot into the stone on the roof of the tomb, and so on several times, four of the five arrows tied to the glow sticks were shot into a square, and one of them was shooting directly at the center of the square.

Our light source cannot illuminate the entire burial chamber, which is undeniable, and we can only use the limited equipment we have at hand. I asked Song Jin to shoot arrows at the top of the tomb, in fact, to establish an immovable reference, and to shoot a few more arrows, so that each one can be a reference to each other. To put it simply, this is a positioning system that I have built. When we walk during the day, in addition to having enough light to allow us to clearly identify the direction, there is also the sun hanging in the sky, which is constant relative to our position wherever we go. But at night, although there is not enough light, we can also clearly discern the direction by relying on the Big Dipper. That's how I built a simple positioning system.

As long as we don't move, and the position of the glow stick changes, then we can determine that it is "ground moving", and we can also calculate the direction of "ground movement" according to the change of the direction of the light stick.

When Lao Zhao saw my masterpiece, he couldn't help but praise it greatly, and said, "Brother Ling is really a genius, a rising star in tomb robbing." ”

I don't want to do any show of this tomb robbery, if I get out of this ancient tomb, I must be the owner of my small seal shop for a long time, so as not to join the ranks of tomb robbing. I waved my hand and said to Lao Zhao: "Don't be in a hurry to boast, now that my stage has been set up, I'm waiting for you to sing." Don't let your buddy down. ”

Lao Zhao smiled and said, "Don't worry!" After speaking, he stared at the glow stick on the roof of the tomb, motionless. We were idle, and we stared together, but in the end, our necks really hurt so much that we had to give up, twisting our necks with our hands, but found that Lao Zhao was still staring.

Seeing that Lao Zhao didn't speak, the pit was stunned, leaned over and said to me: "This big brother is not good, he has been old for a long time." ”

"You don't talk nonsense, keep your opinion, if it weren't for Lao Zhao, where would you get the opportunity to go to the tomb, and if you can't go down to the tomb, what kind of ancient jade will you give to you." I whispered to the pit.

The pit pursed his lips and said, "You must know that this land is so mysterious, even if you give me 10,000 pieces of jade, I won't come." ”

However, Lao Zhao's time was indeed a little longer, and in the end, even I looked at the wall and took a nap, only Song Jin was still standing in place, and he didn't seem to feel bored at all. Finally, Lao Zhao also twisted his neck and paced back and forth a few steps.

"Got a result?" I asked anxiously.

"Hmm!"

Although Lao Zhao's "um" is only one word, for us, it is more durable than the most popular pop songs.

"Tell me what's going on."

"The chamber is moving very slowly, and from what I've just observed, the position of the glow stick first shifted to the left, then to the right, and then to the left." Lao Zhao said to us.

"What's going on. Why left and right, and which way? "I think this explanation seems a bit vague.

"Pendulum." Song Jin said lightly.

Lao Zhao nodded and said, "That's right, it's a pendulum, we are like staying on the pendulum now, being thrown around by the tomb." ”

"Damn, then we're not going to be thrown up." The pit interjected.

"Shut up, did you vomit?" The mind of the pit always has a strange way of thinking and direction at such times.

Lao Zhao listened to the words of the pit and laughed, "Brother Niu is still so interesting, he won't vomit, and it will definitely make us not sober after a long time." ”

"So which direction should we go?" I asked Lao Zhao.

"Okay, listen to my orders in a while, and run to the left together."

"That's it? Wouldn't it be too arbitrary? I asked with skepticism.

"Come on, zero eggs, let you go, can you get out?" The pit taunted me on the side.

"Don't worry, you'll find out just by trying." Lao Zhao is full of confidence. I said in my heart that I can't help it now, you're so sure, you don't have to give it a try.

Lao Zhao stopped making a sound, looked up at the glow stick on the top of the tomb again, and suddenly shouted to run, the four of us ran to the left together, ran for a while, Lao Zhao shouted again, the pit ran behind me, and the car crashed into me without stopping at once, and the wound that had just been bandaged was a burst of pain. These two goods, I can't forget to find me some trouble at any time.

Lao Zhao stopped, kept groping on the wall with his hand, took out a dagger and knocked it on the wall with a knife. He said, "Stand back." ”

The three of us didn't dare to slack off, and quickly took a few steps back. I saw that the wall of the tomb, which was originally flat, slowly cracked a crack. The gap grew larger and larger enough for a person to pass sideways, and through the gap, I saw that there was still endless darkness behind the wall. At this time, the gap increased to the extreme, and began to shrink gradually, Lao Zhao urged us to hurry through, we didn't have time to delay, side by side, sideways into the gap.

We have to pass through the wall before the wall is sewn together, otherwise we will be squeezed into the wall, fortunately the wall is not too thick, but even so, when we all come out, walking in the back of the pit, we are still squeezed with horizontal noses and vertical eyes, and as soon as we come out, we complain: "It's too ** crowded, almost squeezed me into a newspaper." ”

Lao Zhao covered the mouth of the pit and said softly: "Don't talk about the situation." ”

Before we could understand what was going on, we felt a gust of wind and a foul smell blowing in our faces.
