Chapter 201: Cracking the Coffin Array

Looking at the sun-shaped pattern on the front of this golden gear, Chen Ziyang thought for a moment, this sun-shaped pattern is composed of many line segments emanating from the center of the circle, and eight of them point to the eight directions of the eight trigrams.

These eight lines vary in length, and the longest of them points to the seismic position. And the coffin containing the wheel, one of the eight coffins that Chen Ziyang opened before, happened to be located on the earthquake position of the Bagua direction.

Looking at the eight lines of different lengths on the golden gear, Chen Ziyang found that although many of the line segments on the front of the golden disc were of the same length, none of the eight line segments located in the Bagua direction were the same length, that is to say, these eight line segments had eight lengths.

Since the line segment pointing to the seismic position is the longest, and the first coffin that is opened is precisely located at the seismic position, does the length of these line segments represent the order in which the eight coffins were opened? It can't be that simple, right? Chen Ziyang hesitated in his heart.

But in his heart, he faintly felt that the simultaneous appearance of these two seismic positions should not be just a coincidence. According to the length of the line segment, Chen Ziyang analyzed the order of opening the eight coffins, which should be opened in the order of Zhen, Qian, Kun, Xun, Kan, Gen, Dui, and Li.

Time is pressing, it is too late to analyze carefully, Chen Ziyang feels that the final killing mechanism in this stone chamber should be activated immediately, so there is no time to continue to study, the dead horse is regarded as a live horse doctor, let's give it a try, so he hurriedly told Xiao Na that he had cracked the opening order of this mechanism.

Xiao Na doesn't have any extra nonsense, except for Chen Ziyang, there may not be anyone in this team who will crack the mechanism here, since Chen Ziyang is so sure, then give it a try. There were still eight people except Xiao Na and Chen Ziyang, but this time Wang Ming was injured, and he was not arranged for the time being, and the other seven people rushed to the side of the other seven coffins and pried open all those coffins.

After the other seven coffins were opened, the contents of the coffins were just as Chen Ziyang had guessed, and they were filled with mechanisms like wheels and chains that could be pulled around the wheels.

Chen Ziyang hurriedly told these people the order in which the mechanism was opened, and he and Xiao Na assisted in the command on the side. Before each mechanism is opened, two people to the right and left of the mechanism will come to help, and it takes the strength of three people to pull the heavy wheel.

Because of the lessons from the past, Chen Ziyang told them that whenever they pulled this kind of mechanism, they heard that kind of clicking sound, so they should not continue to pull, which means that this mechanism has been pulled to the designated position, if they continue to pull and pull too much, there may be another rain of arrows, maybe this time it may be turned upside down, so everyone must be careful.

When pulling the roller of the cadre position, Chen Ziyang's heart was very nervous, whether the opening order of this mechanism was as he judged, now it will be known immediately, if it is wrong, it is very likely that all these people will be buried in this coffin array, and the designer of the mechanism here will definitely not give them a third chance to make a mistake.

Bang, the sound of the chain being pulled beat in Chen Ziyang's heart, and a few drops of sweat slid down his cheeks, but Chen Ziyang didn't realize it, he focused all his attention on his ears and eyes, and when he heard a click, Chen Ziyang subconsciously clenched his fists, and his fingernails were even deeply rooted in his palms.

With a click, the second chain was pulled down where the mechanism was, and after hearing the sound. All the people froze in place, looked around carefully, and after waiting for a few seconds, the coffin lid that everyone was most afraid of was popped open, and the shot of the crossbow arrow shooting from the coffin did not appear, it seems that Chen Ziyang made the right bet this time.

With a sigh of relief, Chen Ziyang lowered his head and looked at the imitation golden gear in his hand, he didn't expect that the order of opening the mechanism had always been in his hand, but he didn't notice it, this is really an irony, if he had noticed these earlier, maybe Wang Ming would not have been so seriously injured.

The rest of the matter is very simple, you only need to open the mechanisms in the remaining six coffins one by one in order. Just as everyone continued to open these six mechanisms, Chen Ziyang was staring closely at the octagonal coffin in the middle with his eyes, it seems that the answer to the entire Bohai Palace should be there, but I don't know what it will look like inside when this coffin is opened.

After the fourth mechanism was opened, Xiao Na heard the sound of metal rubbing against the stone wall from behind her, Chen Ziyang and Xiao Na turned around at the same time, and the two of them saw that the iron bars that had sealed the crack in the mountain had all risen.

It seems that the order of Chen Ziyang's activation mechanism should be correct, otherwise, the current predicament will not be solved so easily, until he saw the scene in front of him, Chen Ziyang completely relieved his heart.

After the other people saw these iron bars rise, they all relaxed, and at the same time accelerated the movements in their hands, since the method of opening the mechanism is completely correct, everyone does not have to pay careful attention to anything, the speed of opening the mechanism gradually accelerated, when the three of them shook the last iron chain together, the other people who had already opened the mechanism stood behind Chen Ziyang and Xiao Na, and looked at the octagonal coffin in the middle of this coffin array.

After a loud click, everyone was attracted by the sound, and then everyone saw that from the gap in the octagonal coffin in the middle of the coffin array, a pile of dust suddenly erupted, and at the same time, the coffin shook violently, and then there was a sound of gold and iron rubbing.

It's just that the next scene is different from what Chen Ziyang expected, after this dust is scattered, the octagonal coffin is not opened, on the contrary, the coffin lid is lowered downward. This scene was very unexpected by everyone, and Wang Dawei ordered Hu Bo and another team member to go to the front to check the specific situation.

When Hu Bo and the two of them walked near the octagonal coffin, they looked carefully for a long time and made sure that it was safe, so they waved to the team, Chen Ziyang and Xiao Na walked over to watch the secret in the octagonal coffin.

What Chen Ziyang and Xiao Na didn't expect was that the inside of this octagonal coffin was empty, because they had been observing from a distance before, so they didn't see what kind of pattern was depicted on the outside of this coffin.

At this time, Chen Ziyang saw that the lid of the coffin had been lowered, and there was a relief on the lid of the coffin. Although this relief is covered with dust and cobwebs, the pattern is still clear because the relief is carved deeply.

Chen Ziyang was baffled by the depiction of a man standing on the shoulders of a tall Buddha statue, and at the foot of this Buddha statue, countless corpses of soldiers with weapons were trampled underneath the Buddha statue.

This Buddha statue has a hideous face, a tall stature, eight arms, eight hands, each holding a different weapon, and is obviously supposed to be the legendary eight-armed god of war like Vajra. Look at the meaning of your relief painting, this statue is like a killing god, slaughtering these soldiers at his feet.

And the man standing on the shoulders of this eight-armed Vajra is swaggering and high-spirited, his clothes fluttering in the wind, and his fingers are pointing in the direction of the eight-armed Vajra.

This person Chen Ziyang looked a little familiar, the lines on the man's clothes were very simple, only a few strokes, which made Chen Ziyang think that this man might be the man in blue clothes painted on the mural, because the lines of his clothes on this relief and the clothes on the mural are almost identical.

Without figuring out the meaning of the mural, Chen Ziyang's attention was drawn to the only thing in the coffin. There is a rectangular groove in this coffin, which is hidden in the wall of the thick octagonal coffin, and when the coffin lid is lowered, the groove in the coffin wall is revealed.

There were two things inside the groove, a crank handle, and a long-lost gold gear. Around the lid of this coffin, there is a black slit the thickness of a finger, and there is obviously another space behind the slit. Because there were gusts of cold wind blowing out of these cracks, Chen Ziyang estimated that there was a huge space under the lid of this coffin. Seeing the overall structure and design of this coffin, Chen Ziyang and Xiao Na already understood the intention of this coffin.

It seems that this coffin is actually an elevator or something, as long as you shake this crank, this coffin will continue to descend downward, so as to enter the space underneath.

Xiao Na checked the state of the team, except for the injured Wang Ming, the others were fine, and in the past two days, except for the rain of arrows that he had dodged before, the people in the team did not consume any physical strength, and the overall state of the team was very good, so Xiao Na quickly gathered everyone over and prepared to move on.

Originally, Wang Dawei meant that Wang Ming was injured, so he shouldn't take him with him, so as not to slow down the progress of the team, let him rest here alone for the time being, and then take him with him when the people in the team returned. But Chen Ziyang disagreed.

Because Chen Ziyang felt that there might be another exit for this Bodi Palace, and it was possible that everyone would never come back after they went down, so he insisted on bringing Wang Ming with him, and Wang Dawei didn't insist too much, anyway, Yang Lei and Umbrella Shishuai would take care of Wang Ming, and they didn't need their own people.

Because Wang Ming's leg was injured and he couldn't walk on his own, Yang Lei and Umbrella Shishuai wanted to set him up and let him move forward with the support of two people, but because one of Wang Ming's shoulders was also injured, he could only be supported by one person, and this heavy responsibility was handed over to Yang Li's shoulders, Yang Lei walked forward with Wang Ming on his back, muttering in his mouth:

"I said brother-in-law, your injury is okay, look at you, the left thigh and the left shoulder are injured, fortunately, this leg and shoulder are on one side, in this way, I can still help you forward from the right.

Otherwise, if your shoulder injury is not on the same side as your leg injury, then I will touch your injured leg if I hold on to your uninjured shoulder, and I avoid your injured leg, but I have to touch your injured shoulder, and we will not be able to walk like this. Therefore, it is not terrible to be injured, but it is terrible to be injured in the wrong place.

The two of us are also fated, so many people take care of you on me, what, brother-in-law, after you go back, you pick two of your father's valuable things for me, let's say okay, you can't fool me, you must press the bottom of the box and let me pick a few valuable things, otherwise my strength will not be in vain. ”

Umbrella Shi Shuai, who was walking with him on the side, almost didn't enjoy Yang Lei's words after listening to them, and scolded in his heart, Yang Lei, this kid can really connect you with all the world, and he actually wants to benefit from going around, but he is really convinced by this spirit, no matter what the situation, this kid is so big-hearted, so unconcerned.

"No problem, when I go back, I'll hand over all my business in the United States to you, what do you think, it's much more interesting than those antiques, and the business over there is not small, I just need someone to help."

"Brother-in-law, I didn't hurt you in vain, but forget about this matter in the United States, I have a tigress in my family, named Hu Tutu, you don't know, Hu Tutu is not confused, if I want to avoid her in the United States, she can cut me off, do you believe it."

"You can take her with you."

"Forget it, when have you ever seen someone who comes out to eat and brings their own instant noodles, I'd better stay at home honestly, we can't handle it."

In the small talk between Yang Lei and Wang Ming, all the people in the team gathered near the octagonal coffin. Lowering her head and staring at the golden gear in the coffin, Xiao Na bit her lip, resisting the urge to pull it off.

Xiao Na and Chen Ziyang have discussed before that this Bohai Palace should soon go to the last place where the treasure is hidden, which can be reflected in the design of this coffin array, and Xiao Na does not want to give up halfway.

Besides, even if this golden gear is removed now, if the team wants to return the same way, I don't know if it can go back, the alligator gar is still waiting there, and the pond full of piranhas, the team may not be able to pass safely again, for the sake of now, the only way to hope that Chen Ziyang's analysis is right, continue to move forward, and find another exit from the Bohai Palace is the best policy.

Ten people stood on the relief of the coffin lid, and Chen Ziyang personally rotated the crank in the groove, and with the rotation of the crank, the coffin lid under everyone's feet and the side wall of the coffin slowly descended, bringing everyone into the darkness underground.
