Hearing Zhang Linfu say this, other people also felt reasonable, after all, the previous tests on hexagrams were very simple, in fact, it was not a hexagram, but a seven-star dragon search technique, which could also be regarded as a test about the Maoshan Division.

Zhang Linfu made a breakthrough here, and the others went to rest, and it wasn't until the next morning that Zhang Linfu called everyone up and said his inference. It seems that this old man was so excited that he didn't sleep all night, and he had been studying the Tao Te Ching on the tomb door.

According to his inference, Zhang Linfu basically affirmed two things. The first thing is that these nine stone pillars should not involve other mechanisms, but only for opening the stone door.

The second thing is that the Tao Te Ching carved on the stone door should indeed be a hidden hexagram, and it is estimated that as long as this hexagram is cracked, the tomb door in front of everyone can be opened.

Zhang Linfu's speculation has also been agreed by everyone, after all, the tomb door has been inspected many times, there is no mechanism for firing crossbow arrows on it, and the ground here is completely stony, there can be nothing hidden, it is impossible for the mechanism connected by the nine stone pillars to turn the whole mountain over and detain everyone below, this is obviously unrealistic.

However, from Zhang Linfu's tone, Chen Ziyang could hear that the reason why he said this was that the suspicion of appeasing his subordinates was relatively large, and it seemed that this Zhang Linfu was not very sure, but it should be eight or nine without leaving ten.

The reason why Zhang Linfu said these things in public is probably to let other people feel at ease about the nine stone pillars, if they try to open the tomb door for a while, they still need these people to fiddle with the nine stone pillars, if they are afraid of touching the mechanism, maybe they will delay the business, Zhang Linfu also wants to reduce everyone's tension.

"Zhang Zhenren, if there is no mechanism here, let's try it with explosives first, in case it explodes, won't it be profitable." Knowing that the team was short of food, Liu Cong asked tentatively. As soon as he heard that he was going to deduce the hexagram again, Liu Cong was really a little anxious, if he deduced it for another five or seven or eight days, everyone would have to drink the northwest wind.

"Why is it that you kid is getting more and more unproductive, and you don't even talk through your brain? The mausoleums of the Tang Dynasty have always been known for their solidity, and the little explosives you brought can't even blow up the floating ash, and you want to blow up the tomb door? It's just whimsical.

I know you're in a hurry, don't worry, this time the hexagram deduction won't take too long, and half a day's work is enough. The hexagram hidden on the tomb door is connected to the nine stone pillars, and it is not too difficult to deduce the order and angle of the nine stone pillars. Zhang Linfu, who knew Liu Cong's thoughts, said with a smile.

On this day, Liu Cong still sent a team of six people out to look for food, and the rest stayed in front of the tomb gate, ready to wait for Zhang Linfu's dispatch to open the tomb door.

It was almost noon, Zhang Linfu, who had been sitting on the ground and calculating, stood up, and after rubbing his numb legs, he asked Liu Cong to arrange for nine people to stand next to the nine stone pillars, ready to turn the stone pillars according to his command.

Seeing Zhang Linfu's confident appearance, Chen Ziyang knew that this time it should be almost the same, and opening the tomb door should be a matter for Zhang Linfu to hold the handle, and at this time, he heard Yang Lei chattering next to him.

It turned out that Mo Wen happened to be arranged by Liu Cong to rotate a stone pillar, but because of the previous incident, the current Mo Wen couldn't help but tremble when he saw the two calves of the nine stone pillars, and his heart had been buried in the shadow of the stone pillar, and he was about to go to Liu Cong for instructions and change someone to turn the stone pillar, but this matter was known to Yang Lei.

Yang Lei put one hand around Mo Wen's shoulder, and patted his chest with the other, persuading Mo Wen vigorously. Say that people should face their fears in this life, not be swayed by fear, and face up to what they are most afraid of, so that they can overcome themselves and rise to a new height.

At first glance, there was nothing wrong with Yang Lei's words, but Chen Ziyang always felt that such righteous words came out of Yang Lei's mouth a little out of tune, and after looking around, he almost didn't laugh when he understood the truth.

It turned out that the reason why Yang Lei worked so hard to persuade Mo Wen was not because he really cared about others, but for himself.

There were a total of 28 people in the whole team, except for Jada and the three team members who took care of him, there were only 24 people in the camp, and six people were sent out to find food, except for the three brothers Chen Ziyang, the two Lao Zhenren and Liu Cong, and the three women, there were just nine people left.

If Mo Wen retreated at this time and didn't turn the stone pillar, then Liu Cong would probably let Yang Lei go up. This is why Yang Lei worked so hard to persuade Mo Wen, he was afraid that if something was triggered when he turned the stone pillar, it would endanger his life at that time, this little abacus was shrewd.

However, Yang Lei's mouth is really not covered, Mo Wen, who was held in his arms, listened to his words, and the essence of his eyes became brighter and brighter, and then Mo Wen was like a different person, swept away the previous decadent atmosphere, immediately straightened his chest, slapped it a few times, and showed the spirit of not giving up until he reached his goal, and the first one walked to the side of the stone pillar and stood in a good position.

And the stone pillar he chose was the one that hung on the corner of his clothes before, it seemed that this Mo Wen had completely gotten rid of the shadow in his heart under Yang Lei's persuasion, and he was ready to get up from where he fell, he must overcome the fear in his heart.

The other eight team members were also full of confidence under the encouragement of Yang Lei's words, completely forgetting the danger that turning the stone pillar might trigger the mechanism, and stood in position one by one, waiting for Zhang Linfu's dispatch.

"The stone pillar in the southeast, rotate two hexagrams to the right."

"The stone pillar in the southwest, rotates four hexagrams to the left."

……

With Zhang Linfu's order, the people standing next to the nine stone pillars kept adjusting the angle of the stone pillars according to his orders.

When turning the stone pillar, these people found that the mechanism connected to the stone pillar seemed to be divided into eight squares according to the direction of the eight trigrams, and each time the stone pillar rotated, it could only rotate the angle of the whole number of hexagrams.

Sometimes the force used is a little bigger, and the stone pillar that rotates a little larger will automatically rotate back a little, if it sometimes turns too much, the stone pillar will turn directly to the position in the direction of the next Bagua, and it can't be pulled back.

At this time, it means that the angle of rotation of the stone pillar is wrong, and the other stone pillars that have been rotated will automatically rotate back and return to the original angle.

Because everyone was nervous at the beginning, and at the same time, they didn't expect that the heavy stone pillar didn't need much strength when it rotated, and it was difficult to grasp the strength in the hand.

In addition, there is some mud stuffed in the gap between the stone pillar and the stone platform, which sometimes plays a role in making trouble, so that the person who rotates the stone pillar has no way to completely control the force, resulting in the error of turning the stone pillar several times.

Fortunately, after each wrong rotation, the pillar simply returned to its position, and no mechanism was triggered. This made everyone slowly let down their guard and let go of their hands and feet.

After failing three or four times, the nine people who turned the stone pillar found their feel, and at the same time found the trick of turning the stone pillar, and they cooperated with each other more tacitly, and Zhang Linfu's orders were correctly executed one after another. It wasn't until he turned the eight stone pillars on the periphery in turn that Zhang Linfu gave the last order.

"The stone pillar in the middle, rotate two hexagrams to the right."

With the strength of the last team member, the stone pillar in the middle was rotated two hexagrams, and suddenly a dull clicking sound came from the bottom of the nine stone pillars at the same time, apparently the mechanism connected by the nine stone pillars was correctly triggered, and the nine stone pillars were also stuck there motionless and no longer rotated on their own.

At the same time, there was also a sound of organic activation on both sides of the tomb door that had been tightly closed, and with the dull sound of boulders colliding, the tomb door that had been opened by Zhang Taixu and Wang Dingqian and then reclosed for more than 200 years slowly opened.

As the tomb door opened, a gust of cold wind blew out from the back of the tomb door, blowing the nine people standing in front of the tomb door and turning the stone pillars, which was really cold to the bones.

Even if he stood far away, Chen Ziyang could still feel a trace of coolness, this feeling was not unfamiliar to him who had been in contact with the mine since he was a child, this cold wind showed one thing, the space behind the tomb door did not see sunlight all year round, and the depth extending into the ground should be very deep.

After opening a small angle, the two tomb doors stopped, although the angle of opening the tomb door is not large, but because the width of the tomb door is very wide, just this gap is enough for two people to walk side by side.

Liu Cong, who was excited, was the first to walk forward with a flashlight, wanting to check the situation behind the tomb door, and at this time, Jada's voice suddenly came from his communicator.

Since separating from Jada, Liu Cong turned off the communication repeater in order to prevent the Dragon Digging Society from detecting the signal of the communication repeater. However, considering the need to contact Jada, he had made a decision before he separated from Jada, and the communication repeater would be turned on for a period of time at noon every day to facilitate the contact with Jada.

The communication repeater can relay the signal for everyone's communicator within a range of ten kilometers, and it is noon, which is the time when the communication repeater is turned on, and Jada's voice proves that he has come to within ten kilometers of the Taoist holy land.

Jada's ability to arrive here was beyond Chen Ziyang's expectations, and it also surprised everyone. No one believed that a big fat man as bloated as Jada would be able to cross the Qinling Mountains, although it took him ten more days than others, but it was also remarkable.

The hunting team had not yet returned, and there was a need to meet Jada, Liu Cong only briefly glanced at the dark stone passage behind the tomb door, then left the open tomb door and began to prepare for other things.

More than two hours later, Jada led the other three team members to appear in everyone's field of vision, and when they saw his current miserable appearance, everyone secretly turned their faces and laughed wildly.

Jada really looked a little miserable, her bloated figure was obviously a lot thinner, and the clothes on his body were all tattered, which was somewhat similar to Jigong's monk's robe.

The three team members who followed Jada were not much better, although their clothes were still complete, but the three of them were all tired, obviously they were tossed by Jada along the way, it is estimated that Jada can get here, and the efforts of these three people are inseparable.

As soon as he joined the team, Jada couldn't wait to hug Xu Xiaoyuan tightly, tears crackling from the corners of his eyes, crying vigorously about how much he had suffered and how many sins he had suffered along the way.

Aunt Dao looked distressed, and kept rubbing Jada here and there, pinching her shoulders and beating her legs, and at the same time persuading Jada who was crying bitterly.

From the movements of Xu Xiaoyuan's hand, Chen Ziyang could see that she really cared about Jada, and she didn't know why a person like Jada would win Xu Xiaoyuan's heart, is it really like what Jin Huang said before, is there some kind of catty relationship between these two people?

Through the previous two contacts with Xu Xiaoyuan, Chen Ziyang felt that she and Jia Da were two kinds of people at all, and it was hard to imagine why these two people would get along so well.

After pacifying Jada, Liu Cong began to explore the Taoist holy land. His men used acoustic detectors to roughly probe the space behind the tomb door.

According to them, there should be a long downward passage behind the tomb door, but it seems that there is a thicker pillar standing there in the passage, presumably used to support the tomb passage. Because the passage is too deep, they can only provide these clues.

In the evening, the hunting team also returned safely, although this time they brought back not too much food, but it was enough for everyone to eat twice.

The 28 people who were looking for the Taoist holy land gathered again, and at this time, the door of the Taoist holy land had been opened, and Liu Cong was excited to see that things were going so smoothly.

After organizing everyone to eat and drink, Liu Cong ordered everyone to rest as soon as possible and prepare to step into the Taoist holy land the next day.

In the evening, Guo Huaxing watched the stars again at night, and deduced a hexagram with the stars, although the overall result was relatively satisfactory, but Guo Huaxing found in the hexagram that this time after entering the Taoist holy land may not be too smooth.

Even if you can achieve the purpose of everyone's trip, you will pay a certain price, and even a few lives.
