Seeing that the passage of the mechanism is made of colored stones, it makes us feel very bad. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Maybe we underestimated this place, although we knew that there was a mechanism in this passage before we walked over, but we didn't expect that it was a colored stone passage.
I glanced at the old prostitute and San'er, the old prostitute's reaction was the same as mine, he rarely frowned, but this time Zou frowned. San'er's reaction was quite calm, but I could see that he was also a little worried when he saw the colored stone passage.
Although I have never seen the colored stone passage before, I have heard of it.
There was once a respected inverted bucket predecessor who said: The colored stone passage is the passage that eats people, and it is the grave of the tomb robbers. Anyone who goes down to the ground knows that once they encounter the colored stone passage, they will either continue to move forward with the heart of death, or turn around and give up.
This kind of colored stone passage is extremely rare, and it is basically not seen in the ancient tombs in the interior, and only occasionally appears in the ancient Western Regions. Although the colored stone passage looks beautiful, it actually has a lot of attention and hides great dangers.
The stone walls built of colored stones often cause huge psychological pressure on the people who are inverted, because the ancients often used different colors to design different mechanisms.
There are so many colors in this channel that if only one color is safe, then we have no way to discern which color is safe.
If there are only two or three colors here, then there will be very few types of traps, and we dare to knock on the sound and make bold attempts, but now there are too many colors of stones, so we can't blindly try, because you don't know how many traps will be triggered after hitting all the colors, or how many changes will occur in the passage.
When we saw the colored stone passage, we all had a headache, so my old prostitute and I didn't hesitate, and agreed that we should go to another channel first.
Another passage is less than 30 meters away, and as we walked towards the other passage, we found that the ground was very uneven. San'er said that this place has been backfilled, and the robbery hole dug along the passage in the past started here. However, it was an unsuccessful excavation, because it dug into an underground river, so the place was backfilled.
The distance of 30 meters is not far, and a few simple words of communication have not yet been completed.
Walking in the front was the old prostitute, who was also the first to see the entrance of another passage.
?“ My day, why is this also a colored stone passage? Now it seems that we have no choice. The old prostitute glanced at San'er and said, "Do you Murong family have any special warnings about the colored stone passage here, such as what color did those who went in before?"
?“ Yes" San'er nodded and said, "But I don't recommend going the old way." ”
?“ Why isn't it advisable to go the old way?" I asked.
?“ Because they have all failed, we should not continue the path of failure. ”
Listening to what San'er said seems to make sense, after all, the people of the Murong family have tasted failure here, and we really shouldn't continue their path of failure. However, I still want to know what color the people of the Murong family used to take.
I glanced at San'er, and it happened that he also glanced at me, but his eyes met for a short time, and he didn't need me to open his mouth at all, so San'er said, "It's purple." ”
I don't know if this is a tacit understanding, or a coincidence, I didn't even open my mouth to ask, San'er already knew what I wanted to ask, and answered my question at the first time.
Of course, I hope it's just a coincidence, and I really don't want to have any tacit understanding with a cold-blooded and ruthless person like him.
?“ I think we have to go down the old ways and not choose new colors. Seeing that we were puzzled, the old prostitute explained: "There are too many colors here, we can't try every one of them, and the consequences of trying may not be what we want." The most important thing is, have you ever thought about why the Murong family chose purple at that time?"
In fact, this point said by the old prostitute is not a difficult question to answer, you don't have to guess to know, it must have been tried by the Murong family, thinking that purple is relatively safe, so in the end they chose to go purple.
?“ The Murong family is here, maybe how many attempts have been made before they came to the conclusion that they went purple, so we shouldn't change the color, just go purple. The old prostitute said with certainty.
?“ No, you don't know what it is, it's not what you think. For us, it probably doesn't matter which color we go. After saying this, San'er made a move that puzzled all of us, and he walked in without hesitation, and stepped on the stones of different colors with both feet.
?“ What the hell are you doing? I haven't decided which passage to take, so you're just fucking ......" The old prostitute looked at San'er who was stepping on the colored stone, and was a little angry.
?“ Don't make a fuss. San'er turned to look at us in the colored stone passage and said, "Don't you notice that these two passages are oblique? ”
After listening to San'er, I also felt that the channel just now was oblique, and I looked at this channel again, and found that it was really oblique, and as San'er said, the two channels were extending towards a point, but the amplitude of this oblique was not large.
?“ It's oblique, yes, but what does that mean?" I asked.
San'er didn't rush to answer me, but made a triangle with his two hands, and moved his fingers that touched each other before saying, "There will eventually be a meeting point between the two passages." ”
As soon as he said this, I understood, and he meant that it would be the same whichever passage he went in, and he would eventually go to the meeting point.
I carefully looked at the slope of the channel, and also roughly estimated, if according to San'er, the two colored stone passages are leading to a point, then the distance between this point should not be close, at least a few hundred meters. But I remember that the two passages on the map weren't that long.
I took out the parchment scroll and just wanted to take a closer look at the map I had drawn, when San'er said to me, "Don't look at it, I know what you're thinking." Didn't you bring ropes? Show me the proof. ”
Scar took out a rope from his backpack, San'er took the head of the rope, and asked Scar to stick the rope tightly to the side of the passage, and then San'er also pulled the rope against the stone wall on that side and began to walk inside, he only walked less than fifteen steps away, and I found that the rope was attached to the stone wall and there was an obvious bend.
For a while, I thought I was mistaken, because this kind of curve is not visible at all when there is no rope, but with a rope, it is obvious that this colored stone passage is turning.
?“ What's going on?" I couldn't help but be amazed.
Not only was I surprised, but the old prostitute and Scar standing by were puzzled.
San'er walked back, handed the head of the rope to Scar, then pointed to my eyes, and said, "Sense, it's these colored stones that hide the actual curvature here." ”
?“ What you mean is that the purpose of these colored stones is not to conceal the mechanism, but to conceal the curvature of the two passages. I said.
San'er shook his head and said, "Not necessarily, I'm afraid that only the person who designed this place can give you the answer to this question." ”
Hearing San'er say this, my heart instantly cooled. I thought that San'er was trying to prove that these colored stones were just to cover up the curvature of the passage, not to hide the mechanism, but I didn't expect that San'er's answer was like this. In other words, there is still a possibility that there is a hidden mechanism in these colored stones.
?“ Oh my god, there's one thing I don't understand. Why do you want to cover up the curvature with colored stones? What can be the secret of this curvature? ”
?“ Wouldn't you like to go in and have a look? San'er glanced at the old prostitute, then turned around and walked towards the colored stone passage. (Pear Tree)
