Attracted by this loud noise, all the people turned their eyes, only to realize that the person who triggered the mechanism was Mo Wen. This kid should be unlucky, there was no problem with a few people passing by the stone pillar before, but he was the last to go, but he hung the corner of his clothes on the pillar.

At this time, Mo Wen's face looked darker, and he didn't know if he was frightened. He was dangling with one foot in the air and the other on the ground, and the placket was torn open, and the corner of the placket hung right on the pillar.

Mo Wen stood there motionless, beads of sweat running down his cheeks. His posture is like that of the soldiers who stepped on a mine in the movie.

After the sound of "boom", all the people did not dare to come out, and they also stood motionless like Mo Wen, and they were all stunned. Liu Cong's reaction was relatively fast, and he hurriedly shouted to everyone: "Quickly stay away, hide!" ”

The rest of the people reacted at this time, if Mo Wen really triggered any mechanism, judging from the scale of this mausoleum, the power of the mechanism must be not small, and at this time, they should quickly find cover and dodge.

However, after such a long time, I haven't seen any mechanism activated, maybe this mechanism has not been fully activated, or maybe it is because it has been ineffective for a long time. However, although everyone had such a fluke mentality, they still stayed away from the place where the nine stone pillars were located one by one.

Mo Wen naturally didn't dare to move, he was still honestly standing on one leg there, and looked at Liu Congtou for help.

This time, everyone was careless, and no one thought that the nine stone pillars were actually part of some kind of mechanism. But this can't be blamed on them, no one thought that the seemingly heavy stone pillar was so flexible, Mo Wen just walked by, the power of his walk could drive the stone pillar to rotate, which was something that all people never expected.

"Don't ask, don't be nervous, the mechanism shouldn't have been completely triggered, otherwise your kid would have seen Hades a long time ago. You listen to me carefully, and now you slowly step back, take your clothes off the stone pillar, and get out of the way. Liu Cong shouted loudly in the direction of Mo Wen.

Hearing Liu Cong's words, Mo Wen nodded slightly, and then he slowly lowered his raised leg backwards. Mo Wen's movements were very slight, as if he was afraid of waking up the sleeping baby. It wasn't until his foot fell to the ground and saw that there was no change around him that he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then Mo Wen stretched out his hand to the corner of his clothes that was hanging. Liu Cong, who was standing in the distance, saw that Mo Wen's hand was already trembling a little.

Even if these team members are carefully selected by Liu Cong, they are all various masters who have been tempered thousands of times, but no matter who they are, they will be nervous when they really reach such a life-and-death juncture.

If he faced the rain of bullets directly, maybe Mo Wen would not be so afraid, but this unknown thing gives people a stronger sense of fear.

Grabbing the corners of his clothes tightly with trembling hands, and after taking the corners off the stone pillars, Mo Wen quickly turned to the side, and with a force on his legs, he threw himself out a long way at once, and directly left the range of the nine stone pillars.

Seeing that there was still no mechanism activated, the team doctor Yasheng hurriedly ran over, helping Mo Wen to run farther away, completely away from the stone pillar.

Seeing that Mo Wen was rescued, the others also let go of their hanging hearts. But at this time, the stone pillar that had been pulled by Mo Wen at a certain angle before actually rotated on its own, and this time because everyone's eyes were focused on the stone pillar, everyone discovered this abnormality at the same time.

This time, the rumbling sound of the stone pillar was like a talisman, knocking in everyone's ears. Fortunately, no one was near the stone pillar this time, and the others were just worried that some mechanism would be triggered, so they weren't too nervous, but this fear of the unknown was really a bit torturous.

The careful Chen Ziyang found that this time the stone pillar was rotating in the opposite direction when it was pulled by Mo Wen before, as if the stone pillar had automatically returned to its position without completely triggering the mechanism.

Nothing happened after the stone pillar turned, but the tension was around everyone. It was almost dark, and the matter of studying the stone pillars was put on hold for the time being, and everyone stayed away from the stone pillars while resting, for fear that when the things would turn again.

Almost everyone didn't sleep well that night, and they were all worried about the stone pillar, while Guo Huaxing and Zhang Linfu stared at the stone pillar in the night in a daze, thoughtful.

After a night that was both calm and not so calm, the excavation continued. On this day, the focus of everyone's work was to clean the tomb door. Although the stone pillars have not moved, the excavators are still cautious, whether they are digging or walking, they try to avoid these nine stone pillars as much as possible.

However, there are also people who are not afraid of death, early in the morning before dawn, Guo Huaxing and Zhang Linfu pulled Jin Huang to the vicinity of the nine stone pillars to check carefully. Chen Ziyang, who heard the sound, also leaned over, and the four of them looked east and west around the nine stone pillars to find out why the stone pillars could rotate.

After careful observation, everyone figured out that although the octagonal stone platform under the stone pillar was connected with the stone ground and was carved directly on the ground, there was a gap in the place where the nine stone pillars were connected to the stone platform, and it seemed that these stone pillars were added later.

The four of them studied for a long time, but they couldn't come up with a reason. Zhang Linfu squatted there and asked Jin Huang next to him, "Linghu Chong, why do I think these nine stone pillars are like a formation." Is this the fourth test? You're the Maoshan Formation, and now it's your turn to play. ”

"Old man Zhang, let me be honest with you, I felt this way yesterday, but after thinking about it all night, I couldn't figure out what the use of these nine stone pillars was.

You also know that although there are many formations in our Taoism, they all revolve around the ten basic formations of Tianyuan, Liangyi, Sancai, Sixiang, Wuxing, Liuhe, Qixing, Bagua, and Jiugong, and they are all changing.

The eight stone pillars on the outside are arranged according to the direction of the eight trigrams, but the one in the middle is independent of the eight stone pillars, and it looks like the eye of the array, but the nine stone pillars are not arranged according to the direction of the nine palaces. ”

In order not to cause trouble to the excavators, these four people were only studying on the sidelines, and no one dared to touch these stone pillars again.

Jin Huang's words have also been agreed by others, even if they know what kind of formation or mechanism these nine stone pillars are, but if they want to crack it, they lack clues, and it seems that all this will have to wait for the tomb door to be excavated before it can be decided.

With this wave of episodes, all those who excavated the tomb door were also extra careful. They also became cautious when they were about to dig to the tomb door, for fear of touching any more mechanisms.

In their words, the reason why the mechanism did not activate when the pillar was turned before was because the soil blocked the tomb door, and perhaps many crossbow arrows flying out of the tomb door were blocked by this soil.

Hearing these gossips, Zhang Linfu was so angry that he stomped his feet and scolded them vigorously, why didn't a rocket fly out of the tomb door to kill you.

It was not until late evening that the tomb door was completely excavated. More than twenty meters wide, seven or eight meters high tomb door does have a royal atmosphere, such a large stroke is not something ordinary people can do, and even the width of the tomb door is much wider than the area occupied by the nine stone pillars.

It may be that it is really because of fear, although the tomb door has been excavated, but there is still a thick layer of soil attached to the tomb door, which is probably the reason why these people who excavated the tomb door did not dare to use too much force.

Seeing such a rough excavation, even Guo Huaxing couldn't bear it anymore, and he hurriedly commanded the people who excavated the tomb door to continue to clean the soil on the tomb door. In his words, if the tomb door was full of crossbow bolts, then the tomb door would not be a door, and it would be useless to have such a tomb door or not.

Under the repeated urging of the two old people, these people picked up the sapper shovel again and cleaned the dirt on the tomb door little by little. It turned out that the nitpicking of these two old people was still effective, and it was not until the tomb door was completely cleared that everyone discovered the strangeness of this tomb door.

The traditional tomb door of the Tang Dynasty imperial tomb is very atmospheric, even if it is not carved with dragons and phoenixes, there are many reliefs as embellishments. Even if it is not an imperial tomb, the tomb door of the Tang Dynasty mausoleum with a little status will have some embellishments to a greater or lesser extent, and there are rows of neat stone rivets on the top of the most secondary.

But when the dirt was cleared, the tomb gate in front of everyone surprised everyone. There is not a single pattern on the tomb door for decoration, but the surface of the tomb door is not empty, but is lined with traditional characters one after another.

Although the traditional characters of the Tang Dynasty were not quite the same as the later traditional characters, they were basically the same, but a few words were different, so the content of these words engraved on the tomb door was quickly cracked by everyone, which turned out to be a whole Tao Te Ching.

From a neat gap in the center of the tomb door, it can be seen that the entire tomb door is divided into two left and right doors, which should be able to be opened from them, but no matter how hard other people try, whether they push hard or pull outward, these two tomb doors cannot be opened.

Combining the nine stone pillars in front of the gate and the sealed tomb door, several other Taoist masters came to basically the same conclusion. If you want to open this tomb door, you still have to start from these nine stone pillars.

It's no wonder that Mo Wen didn't trigger any mechanism after pulling the stone pillar before, but the stone pillar automatically returned to its place after a while, and it turned out that these nine stone pillars were the mechanism that opened the tomb door. After coming to this conclusion, everyone felt that it was a false alarm, but this was better than worrying about it.

The only thing that can be used as a reminder on the entire tomb door is this well-known Tao Te Ching, which should not have anything hidden in these more than 5,000 words, and if you want to break through, you can only find it from other places.

This Tao Te Ching is also the only harvest of everyone so far, so the six masters of Maoshan plus a Dao Gu gathered in front of the tomb gate, staring at the Tao Te Ching, hoping to get any clues.

Zhang Linfu and Guo Huaxing always felt that if the Tao Te Ching on the tomb door really hid something, the hidden method would be more special, so they watched the entire tomb door from a distance and analyzed it from a macro perspective, and young people like Chen Ziyang came to the tomb door and tried with their various methods.

For example, to see if the characters carved on the tomb door can rotate like a stone pillar, or if there are other hidden features hidden on the text, but no matter how they try, the Tao Te Ching is the Tao Te Ching, the tomb door is the tomb door, and the stone is the stone, and they can't make the slightest clue.

Until the moon rose and it was completely dark, everyone still found nothing. It is rare that since entering the Qinling area, the flashlight has come in handy for the first time. These Maoshan descendants turned on their flashlights and stayed up all night studying the words on the stone gate.

After accompanying everyone to study for a long time, Chen Ziyang was already sleepy, but he was embarrassed to go to sleep alone when he saw others working so hard, so he could only recite the Tao Te Ching on the tomb door in a bored manner.

"Dao, Kedao, very Dao; Name, name, name. None, the beginning of the world; Yes, the mother of all things. ”

Hearing Chen Ziyang's recitation, Guo Huaxing, who had been gaining nothing, reprimanded: "Did you kid do it on purpose? Even if you are absent-minded, you should not desecrate the Tao Te Ching. ”

Guo Huaxing's words made Chen Ziyang scratch his head, he didn't understand the meaning of Guo Huaxing's words. It wasn't until the kind reminder of the Dao Gu on the side that Chen Ziyang understood that his feelings were his hyphenation mistakes.

The correct reading should be: "Tao Ke Dao, very Dao; The name is famous, and the name is not very famous. The beginning of the nameless world; The mother of all things. ”

At this moment, Chen Ziyang Ke felt that he was embarrassed, because he exposed a very obvious shortcoming, that is, he couldn't recite the Tao Te Ching at all.

Since the beginning of his art study, Chen Ziyang has not been interested in anything he has memorized, especially such a large article as the Tao Te Ching, he is not even bothered to read it, and he can't imagine that he has made such a big joke now.

However, Chen Ziyang's recitation gave Zhang Linfu a wake-up call, and then he discovered the reason for Chen Ziyang's wrong recitation. It turns out that on this tomb door, in addition to more than 5,000 words, there are some small dots, which look like punctuation marks, breaking this Tao Te Ching into countless paragraphs.

Looking at these incorrect punctuation marks, Zhang Lin slapped his thigh violently, came to his senses, and hurriedly said to the people around him: "I know where the mystery is, this is not a Tao Te Ching, but a real test of hexagrams." ”
